to: all. several completely legitimate and scientific questions

[mathmetism]

heyo, senseis, it’s me, jerry. i have questions.

when we ~transcend~ into this higher plane of consciousness, is our body just chinchillin’ out in reality, totally out of touch? like if someone tries to lick my eyeball, or draw a dickbutt on my face, does the matrix shoot me a ping? or am i just waking up to pink eye?

has a rogue multidimensional being ever hijacked someone’s consciousness while they’re out fishing? y’all ever meet any primeval dark gods of inconceivable pain out there?

has anyone tried calibrating a radio to pick up this frequency instead of playing pink eye roulette?

how do I know which body to come back to? what if i end up in brenda?

how much does perception shape the horizon? if i drop acid, can i effectively transform the singularity into one of those big inflatable wiggly boys they put outside used car dealerships?

let a girl know

hugs & kisses

Your body remains on the outside but it does eventually need you to return to it, you can't live in the Horizon. Usually people can wake you up if they try hard enough, your mind will pick up on it. It's a psychic plane so you're still connected. But it might miss if someone is doing mild things to you, depending on how focused you are in the Horizon at the time.

There are many gods here and they have directly interacted with most of us, yes.

Your mind is connected to this body, it will bring you to the correct place. They're still tied to one another.

No, you can't change the Singularity, it is beyond our abilities. Your perception does change the Horizon around you although you normally cannot alter other people's space. Or rather, it's rude to attempt to, these are personal.

cool cool cool ty, i'll keep my psychedelics to my own playground. too bad about the singularity, though, it could use some remodeling. just to lighten up some of the oppressive mind-boggling ancient mystery vibe. kind of a downer.
maybe a silly hat?

are they chill gods? would you invite them to the cook out?

[magicalarchaeologist]

As far as I know, there is not as much access to drugs in Thorne. Not to mention they keep us relatively poor so you probably won't be able to afford it.

The Singularity is angry right now, best not to annoy it further.

No, absolutely not chill. They are dangerous and destructive. I've heard there are a few who are fine, but it's not the common.

guess it's time to homebrew

who pissed off the big magic rock?

yeaaaah that about tracks for most gods

[magicalarchaeologist]

A trickster god, apparently. It followed us back from Ikorr and the Singularity is very angry about its existence. We don't know anything else as of right now.

[mathmetism]

if the singularity can drag us through multidimensional wormholes, grant powers and reshape our consciousness, what's a trickster god to it? why not just evict it?

[magicalarchaeologist]

An excellent question that we have no answer to. There is no logical reason it should have any trouble with a god when it is more powerful than all of them. It's possible the god is particularly craft and keeps sneaking in, which would be annoying, but we don't know for certain what is happening.

(*concentrating extremely hard on making this a private response!!*)

i wanted to thank you very much for answering this seriously and succinctly!

the question(s) might not have been how i would've put it, but also being new, it's useful. and this kind of communication is a little overwhelming, but it does make it easy to take notes.

Successful private response!

You're welcome. I'm very used to writing out facts for people around here. There is a lot of it.
