Do you guys ever contemplate what it would be like to have the powers of God? If I was given ultimate power, it's funny, because if I was given that I'd just manifest me some people who loved me and I'd ignore the rest of the world, and here I was thinking I would wipe everything out, but no, that rage only comes from loneliness, and if I had ultimate power why destroy anything when I could just make myself happy and leave the trash to rot while I enjoyed myself, and yes I call it all trash, why? Because it cares not for me, it does not serve me, I am insignificant to it, my feelings are unimportant to it, and so yes I think of it as trash while I lay dying, the flowers beauty is only beautiful for those who have the good mood to enjoy them, for the rest, they appear a mockery, dancing in idle ignorance of the suffering around them.
which is also the strategy I use to not ruminate on regrets or anything. can't fathom being anything but myself at this present time
i can only imagine what it would be like to have my current mind projected into a body which has theoretical infinite powers but which cannot use them in a way unlike what i can imagine now, which would mostly boil down to, yeah, suddenly being in a nice warm rural house in the north of my country not too far from the sea and maybe a city with tons of free time and being able to see all my friends
but as to actually becoming - or having his powers, and the question seems to posit these are the same thing -, that's, unrecognisable as me yknow
@driftwood @bless @amerika That's actually very sensible, kind of like Dr. Manhattan. A character who became a god, he because really detached and unemotional, because he knew everything that was or will be, and all the infinite variations between dimensions. He felt kind of sad about it all, since he could now observe the bonds of fate he was trapped by like everyone else was, even if he wanted to change the outcome, he would know already, he's trapped on the minecart like everyone else, going down the predetermined rails, only he knows and sees it, while everyone else is ignorant and thinks they're going on some willful adventure.
@driftwood @bless @amerika thoughts?
