@Jello @DEERBLOOD @WeissenSocken88 @Humpleupagus @Sui @burner @Dan_Hulson @Shadowbroker2135 @Twoinchdestroya We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled.
But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any
particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in
a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events
of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose
meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

@DEERBLOOD @WeissenSocken88 @Jean_Philippe_Micheaux @Humpleupagus @Sui @burner @Dan_Hulson @Shadowbroker2135 @Twoinchdestroya We're all probably just heads in a vat to be honest. So maybe you weren't wrong
Probably minus the actual physical heads in vat and code in a computer. Who knows though.
Some people love their opiate drugs. Like if I wanted to be unconscious Id sleep lol. I get it though, they feel good. I guess, I don't have much experience with them, probably didn't take enough.

@WeissenSocken88 @Jello @Jean_Philippe_Micheaux @Humpleupagus @Sui @burner @Dan_Hulson @Shadowbroker2135 @Twoinchdestroya My sister got surgery and I went to visit her. She was still really drugged up when I got there
So I told her the surgery went really well, except she was just a head now
She have a soft "nooooo" and then drifted back off into unconsciousness

And we are just brains in a vat, our skulls. In fact, we never move. We move the world around us. I kick the earth beneath my feet and make it move behind me.

@Jean_Philippe_Micheaux @DEERBLOOD @WeissenSocken88 @Humpleupagus @Sui @burner @Dan_Hulson @Shadowbroker2135 @Twoinchdestroya Exactly.
lol, I have thought about this kind of stuff a lot. At the end of the day it leads to nothing, but the more open minded a person is, and the more people look around and think about things, I guess the better. Can make life more interesting and even more meaningful.
I've considered solipsism, not sure If I believe, but lol. Whether true or not it just doesn't matter. Whether we live in a simulation doesn't matter. Everything is still the same. Crazy we exist at all, that's pretty awesome.
This really put in to perspective people who complain about their lives, are depressed, etc. I get it, but like, holy shit, existing in this world and reality is crazy. How is that real.

Thinking / perceiving requires an object outside of the thinker / perceiver. Whether you know what it actually is is an epistemological problem. What I do know is that if I can see it, it is seeable at least to the extent it is seen, etc.

@Humpleupagus @Sui @burner @DEERBLOOD @Dan_Hulson @Jean_Philippe_Micheaux @Shadowbroker2135 @Twoinchdestroya @WeissenSocken88 Same. Hell I can interact with them, it. To me it really is god, just not that guy from the bible. It truly is like an entity and person outside of our experience. Maybe I'm not on the same page here, but if you get it you get it.
I have perceived things, that nearly always make me think and understand that it is not something I could have or would have imagined on my own. To just see something, especially hallucinations and visuals brought on by anything (sleep dep visuals mostly in my case, after staying up a day or 2) - to just see something, a whole image, theme, scenario, idea, concept, in a moment without effort. Where does that come from. Or to see a person/entity hallucination, and they interact with you real time, synchronizing with your thoughts and everything. When you experience stuff like that you can really get the feeling that there is more to it, and regardless of whether it's "real" or not it is a thing.

All things are "real," even hallucinations. How we organize / explain the objects of experience is another issue. An example: Both unicorns and Santa Claus are real, but what they are or how they fit into "reality" is different question.

I have aphantasia. I can't see objects or faces. I can describe them though (I assume this because the mind process the seeing and the describing in parallel, which gives people the illusion that they can only describe the object because they are seeing it). I have a very keen auditory memory though. Far better than anyone I know.

An interest place to look is stroke victims. There are numerous example of fuckery when certain areas of the brain get knocked out, like being able to read but not write or write but not read.

@Humpleupagus @Eiswald @Sui @burner @DEERBLOOD @Dan_Hulson @Jean_Philippe_Micheaux @Shadowbroker2135 @Twoinchdestroya @WeissenSocken88 That's interesting. Never understood my process for recalling a face for example. I think I do visualize it and describe from that. Can't imagine the way you are describing your experience, at least not at this moment, lol

I'll remember the size, tiny, but not what it looked like. I can describe it though: Cocktail Wiener.
