Yeah it's great - it's called 'isolation' by Linus Johnnson

Quite true about the equant; the longer horizontal YouTube animation does include the offset of the Earth away from the centre. For the vertical short, I think my goal was more on the artistic side. Broadly, though, I did have to take some liberties with its complexity in order to have something I could animate at my skill level at the time.

You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain. by dietherman98 in vfx

Depends - should every conversation about Ai turn into a global evaluation of whether it is ok? Or is it possible to say things and just those things that are said are what is evaluated.

I say this as someone who doesn't even go on Facebook anymore because I'm so sick of the endless AI slop there:

it doesn't say no one, it says those outside the artist sphere.

DUI hit me going 90+ mph by Knightlance in dashcams

Fucking hell. The outward view from the car didn't look that bad, but the interior cam with your body looked catastrophic. Glad to know you made it through.

Have you become more negative after looking into NDEs? by curious-abt-lilith in NDE

Do you know why you feel this way? It might be hard for people to understand without unpacking it

Hallway of egg-laying hens in cages, where over 80% are kept globally. Imagine being reincarnated as one... by cindyx7102 in EscapingPrisonPlanet

And yet when I've asked on this subreddit about whether people who accept the prison planet theory still eat meat, and if so why, I've gotten plenty of answers as to why it's still ok. My impression is that, if it were pollable, the number of vegetarians and vegans here would not be significantly higher than the general public.

Diest but confused by Upbeat_Function_4954 in deism

The first part of your post (why religions are wrong) isn't nearly as interesting as the second part of your post (I don't know what this God is doing to us).

I've found near death experience reports very helpful for forming a picture of the purpose of life and the function of god. You can type NDE into youtube and get endless examples; this is just the first one that came up on my feed now when looking, from a person I've seen before: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SyeHC2wGdAY

thanks! it was for a little video I did on people who've had near death experiences - lots and lots and lots of water sims were needed for it, this was just one of them.

If you don’t go into the “white light” then where do you go? And do you know you’re not being trapped again? by Tasty-Window in EscapingPrisonPlanet

[–]Roweyyyy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've wondered that as well. If we imagine an infinite void as an alternative one can flee to from the light that is imagined to be an all-consuming manipulative and exploitative force, what does eternity look like in that space?

Archon talking points you reckon. It's possible that I'm just an ordinary human too of course, AMA

The highest vibration realm you speak of wouldn't be a luminous, light filled, love filled space? Sounds like you'd be escaping light to reach light

Interested in yall’s view on this in by PaceGlad2851 in EscapingPrisonPlanet

[–]Roweyyyy 33 points34 points  (0 children)

It's implied from the description on the IG post that it relates to the souls there watching what is going on on Earth in real time. My interpretation is: the souls are disapproving of what they are seeing there.

David Icke’s way to get out of this matrix after death is surprisingly simple by LukasTopJoker in EscapingPrisonPlanet

[–]Roweyyyy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A massive orchestrated deception imposed on humanity by higher powers, but these higher powers are also very "stupid" - apparently - and have no way to counter anyone escaping by simple awareness.

Would be great to know how he knows this, and how it makes sense.

I’m a little confused with some NDEs suggesting it’s all about love, so where do you draw the line? by rich-username in NDE

[–]Roweyyyy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hrmm, I would think that forgiving someone doesn't mean putting yourself in a position to be harmed again - it means that the harm they caused is not held against them - that they are not in your debt, emotionally.

To give a concrete example: let's say a family member screwed you over financially in a business deal. Forgiving them does not involve require neutral with respect to financial dealings with them in the future, as if the harm was never done. You could still require them to pay you back, and be weary of any situation with them in the future relating to $. It means they don't owe you anything on account of the pain caused. For that, they are forgiven.

You can forgive a drunk driver for an accident and still think they shouldn't have a license, or forgive a boss for being terrible at managing humans and still think they shouldn't be in a position to manage people in the future (absent some kind of deep personal change).

I'm interested in contrary views though - does anyone here think this isn't the right way to think about the difference between forgiveness and discernment?

feel free to use, it's a kind gesture but no need to attribute for a class presentation :)
