    Nothing is as terrifying as SpaceEngine.

    Frankly. This… software rearranged my brain and changed me fundamentally.

    There are no words to describe being lost in the 10^27 of space. It’s just too much, you will go insane and if you survive you will lose the ability to talk with people, lose every single thing that you thought matters. You will be alone even in the busiest of places, some part of you forever stuck in the 10^27 of emptiness between Galaxy Groups.

    This isn’t a joke. Ignorance is bliss

    If you do certain types of drugs or meditation you can get that out of body illusion.

        Its just a simple perceptive trick, like when you stare into your eyes in a mirror for like 5min, or if you touch cold water and with an active enough imagination imagine even colder water it doesn't feel quite as bad. There are meditation lines that open with weird suggestion perceptive things like that. Our perception is quite hackable in some ways, its very fun.
