i think i vaguely heard they found shit but i thought it was just qr codes or w/e
i still dont buy the matrix theory though

[splinten]

I think that was the first run.
The Matrix theory is probably less terrifying than alternatives. A computer removing all blue from a simulation suggests much less power than someone erasing it from reality.
The way non-Retrospec users' souls are a little less vibrant makes me unsure what to think. I don't know what 'less vibrant' means in the Heart Bullshit vocab.

[parodeity]

dont ask me what it means no one wants my take on shit
but i dont think this is the matrix i mean you can have that opinion

[splinten]

Bro, of course I want your take on shit.
What do you think it means?

[parodeity]

not on this
because i dont have any happy go lucky theories

[splinten]

I didn't think your theories would be.

[parodeity]

window dressing

[splinten]

Yeah. I've thought about that possibility.
I can't tell if the souls would be more different if that were true, or if this is exactly it.

[parodeity]

no one else will like the theory
since
its kind of a fucking shitty one

[splinten]

Probably not, although I'm sure some have thought of it.
Maybe if I get better at this soul shit, I'll be able to get something conclusive.

[parodeity]

mostly i think people try not to think about the options that are probably most true
i still get people who dont think the memories are anything but pure bullshit
but i remember enough to know they arent

[splinten]

Lucky them.
Not that I'd prefer self-deluded ignorance, but they presumably do.

[parodeity]

ignorance only works for so long i think
about something that big
this big

[splinten]

Likely. Some of them don't need it to last for very long.
Others do, and run out of time.

[parodeity]

you mean people who go back to zero

[splinten]

For the first.
Others don't go back to zero quick enough to escape facin' reality.

[parodeity]

youd be surprised
some people have lots of memories or enough to like reasonably go hey heres a thing
but they insist its definitely not

[splinten]

That could almost be impressive.

[parodeity]

barnes is really good at it

[splinten]

That guy, huh.
Somehow, it isn't particularly surprising he'd be prone to extreme denial.

[parodeity]

i mean he wears eyeliner and basically exists to edge
obviously hes in denial
hes the posterboy for denial

[splinten]

Haha, I never noticed the eyeliner.
You'd think someone that edgy would be into a grittier, darker past life.

[parodeity]

myspace brand edge will only take you so far in life
