Third eye drops are intended for open-minded adults.

Now administering third eye drops. Greetings my friends and thank you so very much for entangling your

qualia with my encoded mouth noises so tremendous to have you here. I was just thinking about this and a large part of

being self-aware ironically is to acknowledge the falseness of yourself, that my Michaeldom, for example,

is but a complex construct comprised of a multitude of influx

stochastic impermanent systems and variables with

even the most solid of them being totally temporary.

And I know that intellectually, but sometimes I have to think about it in different ways for it to sink in.

Like, imagine approaching a robust, massive, stately oak tree or something.

That thing is solid.

It is sure of itself.

Definitely not going anywhere.

But no matter how resilient, it seems, that bitch is going to rot.

It's going to degrade, it's going to fall over, it's going to cease to be one day. And look all

around you. Nothing is immune to that fate and of course I am no different. We are no different. I guess I'm a little different. I'm not nearly as solid as an oak tree. I have been going to the gym regularly for a while now,

still far from an oak tree. I think I might be able to take down some saplings on a particularly vigorous afternoon,

probably pre-lunch.

So yeah, it's all fading, save for our immortal souls

if we have those.

But the experiences that really bring this fact into stark focus tend to be the ones you have to seek out.

They used to be purposefully hidden, cloaked in secrecy and suppression and ritual, or perhaps just difficult

to obtain due to rarity, but now we know exactly how to have these experiences.
