      Today a young man on acid realized that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Heres Tom with the Weather.

          Thinking about consciousness and stuff is fun. Like what if loneliness is an innate property of a singular unified consciousness and in its searching for another it creates compartmentalized versions of itself until ultimately complex unique lifeforms are formed. What if life is just the complexity of knots tied by consciousness searching for another? What if time is the entropy of those knots becoming untied?
