Not an open ended question, but I’ll leave it up as it seems to be generating some discussion.
Pretty good. I mean bad choices.
Yea
So Gaspar Noé, H.G. Wells, Charlie Brooker or Lovecraft get to write your afterlife?
Where’s the “play weird football” or “make friends with a satellite” option? 🛰️
Thank you so much for reminding me of this, I might have to dive down that rabbit hole again tn
The higher horrors are stuck there with me. Unfortunately for them my primitive mind does not understand why they should be horrific . I am aware that I am stuck in a different dimensions where ethics may or may not come into play. I have a good amount of imagination and actual experience with the depravity of the human soul…

On the flip side, what might be an unfathomable horror for a superior being, might not even register to us
Like us showing The Grudge to an ant
I’m living through number one right now. The confusion isn’t the bad part. The bad part is being fully conscious of your confusion, almost like you are in a body floating over your own watching you do and think stupid shit you know you would never do. It is legitimately horrifying watching myself slip further and further by the day and nobody seems to think there is a problem.
Trauma? Stress? Hormones? Illness? Any chance for a diagnosis? I’m sorry you’re going through this.
No idea. I’ve been to who knows how many specialists and nobody is going beyond the basic checklist and giving up afterwards.
Resource war is the safe bet.
VR if I am feeling lucky.
Sleeping in the Hereafter isn’t on the table lol.
Unfortunately Gerryon’s Ark doomed us all 💀.
Assimilation by the Corpsefather is the only option to give you 1000 years of unfettered freedom first.
Go big or go home. I pick the Corpsefather so that I can spend 1000 years free of resource wars, VR hellscapes, and alternate dimension experiments.
Hell, after 1000 years of accumulated experience, I’ll probably already be insane by the time Dad shows up anyway.
Also, it doesn’t actually say that it did consume you. You can spend your eternity trying to escape or fight it. Not that it would be great, though
Some people get 1000 years, you may have been born shortly before the rise of the almighty corpsefather.
Top left sounds pretty much how i’d expect death to be like anyways. Whatever emotion you’re feeling as you pass just gets freeze-framed like a tv glitching out, and then you just experience that. Period. Confusion being that emotion doesn’t sound too horrible.
Then again, whatever the VR thing is could be fine. If it’s too small a space, though, then perhaps not. Also, if it’s a bad place then that’s just a form of hell.
I’ll go with number 3, since I’m already living in number 1.
Hmm, I guess I’ll go with the VR thing. It could serve as some kind of afterlife. Maybe you can meet your friends and family there!
Meh, I don’t think it could work this way. Infinite time without constant novel experience would just devolve into incomprehensible white noise in both action and reaction. Honestly, I think we’re already in the infinite simulation and we’re either being fed novel experience or we’re feeding ourselves novel experience in order to cope. Not sure. Can’t be sure. Right now I just wish I could get my truck working.
I like that the most reasonable response in the post gets two downvotes. Two people in particular were like “NO! I want my bug god!”
Stuck in a different dimension sounds the least bad. Also like most of my dreams.
