>How do you cope

I don't. The fact that I'm going to die makes me careless and reckless with my lifestyle. Not in a "sky diving, radical sport, fun" way but in a "do nothing, I'm going to die" way.

>>937426476
>"sky diving, radical sport, fun" way
people who interpret death like that are disturbingly retarded

>>937427241
I'm talking about lifestyle, not death

>>937427323
i don't do anything with my life either, life sucks and whatever happens after death is definitely going to be better than this bullshit

>>937427391
>i don't do anything with my life either

You don't have to. Just sexting with me is enough

>>937427938
oh shit

>>937427990
What?

>>937426303 (OP)
just help others. if you are abled bodied then really think about the others that are being fed through a tube right now. capitalize everyday. as long as you are moving right then it doesnt matter when you die. oh well man. life goes on. no point of crying about the inevitable. this bothers me every single day. its unhealthy behavior. its not new either. ever since i was young i would be sad one day i will live without my mother. im the worst son in the world keep in mind. life is rough but you gotta move on

>>937428014
do you love me?

Yes.

Now and then, when I'm out of 4chan, I think about you.

"valid answers i dont like are autistic"

I believe in the cyclic universe theory, anon. The universe is infinite, meaning that there was no beginning and there is no end. The big bang repeats itself infinitely, and this is proved by Hawking radiation. Matter cannot be created or destroyed, so it is converted into radiation in a black hole. The radiation is then converted back into matter in a "big bang."

In a truly infinite timeline, every moment exists eternally in its place, like points on an infinite number line. You are not the destination of that line, you are a point on it. There’s no need to "arrive" at now from the infinite. You always were here, just as the infinite past always was. You didn't travel from infinity. You emerged when the conditions were right: for mind, structure, and complexity.

In an infinite past, you don’t have to cross infinity to reach the present.
The present is simply where you are, in the flow of existence, in a universe that may never have started and may never end—but which, for one fleeting moment, woke up and wondered why.

To answer your question. We won't be dead for all of eternity. We are the infinite universe and we will wake up again and again, infinitely. It is not reincarnation in the Bhuddist sense, but it is close to it.

>>937430434
You can laugh all you want, but it is childish to believe that there was something from nothing, and then there will be nothing again. Or that there is some higher power dude in the sky that needs you to do good for him and he will give you good boy afterlife for eternity.

>>937430848
Death is eternal oblivion. Nothing more.

>>937430848
Are you the anon who posted /sci/ about the big freeze vs big rip theory

>>937431358
believe what you want, but you have been here before and will be here again. Trust me.

>>937431397
no but I wish I got to talk on such a thread. I essentially believe in the exact opposite of the big freeze. There is no heat death, but literally just heat, enough heat for a massive atomic explosion into the next universe.

In pic rel, I believe in a repeating version of the decelerating universes on the far left side. On the far right is the "big rip," which is another model that involves a beginning and an end, which is impossible. Matter can not be created or destroyed.

>inb4 it'll be like before you were born autistic response

you're autistic for having an issue with this response, even mark twain himself said it

I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it" is attributed to Mark Twain.

>>937431528
i get your point but atp we cant say for sure how it will all end. There is evidence supporting both the big freeze and big crunch which means we are very far from the answer.

while its plausible we just die and that's it, I doubt it. I think its something akin to final fantasies Mana stream where our shared consciousness returns back to the ebb and flow of the universe.

>>937431528
>I wish I got to talk on such a thread
Just make a thread on /sci/ you'll get a bunch of know-it-alls arguing like they have been actively researching this shit their whole lives when all they've done is ask chatgpt.

>>937432368
Just remember that something cannot create nothing, and nothing cannot create something. Ask yourself what happened before "singularity." I am surprised more scientists don't ask that question. They just assume that is where all space and time started. To me, that is equivalent to religion's explanations. We cannot be in a spontanious universe that then becomes nothing, it is impossible and frankly it is lazy to think that way. Please research Hawking radiation, as it is the whole basis of my hot ending big bounce theory.

Here is a visual representation of what happens to a particle when it reaches the event horizon of a black hole

Why do """""astronomers""""" keep trying to get us to talk about "black holes". What about white holes, you fucking race mixing weirdos?

>>937432474
Okay but let me ask you this, even for the big bounce to happen, the universe the big bounce is happening in should have come from something (another universe that ended before it possibly) and so if you go back far enough where and with what does it all begin?

>>937426303 (OP)
I don't, I have self preservation like any non-suicidal creature on earth but honestly once you get past that I want enternal death because life gets very pointless after awhile; people around you are so vapid and shallow it's like reading the same book over and over or watching the same movie.

I just want the end to come

>>937432895
To imagine an infinite past with no beginning, you have to let go of one of our deepest intuitions: that everything must have a starting point. That time is like a rope that is cut somewhere, and you reach the end. But in this view, time is more like an endless fabric, unspooling without origin, without end.

The answer is that it never started.
An infinite past means time extends backward forever. No matter how far you go, there's always more behind you.

There’s no “first moment,” no point where time or the universe began. There’s just a sequence of events stretching back eternally:

Every event has a cause. That cause had a cause. That cause had a cause…and so on, without limit.

It’s not that the universe sat around forever and then suddenly “started.”
It’s that it was always happening.

There’s no origin point to appeal to.

There was no “nothing” before something.

No act of creation—just eternal becoming.

It forces us to abandon the idea that existence needs permission to exist. Instead, it just is unfolding in patterns, cycles, and possibilities, across an infinite past and future.

You are not standing at the edge of a rope, but riding a ripple on an endless sea.

>>937433066
yeah could be infinite. It's just sad that all of this wont be figured out in our life time.

op can not post something in the thread before op has made the thread.

>>937433554
Honestly I doubt that we will ever agree on one specific theory of the universe. But the infinite cyclic universe is the theory I will be sticking to. I'm going to bed now, but I'll see you in a few trillion crunches from now.

At this point the only little bit of solace I have left is that everyone is going to die. I got a fucking 36 on the act goddamnit. Just to start. They all screwed me. They literally all screwed me and hypothetically maybe I'd have a flying car and immortality and maybe they would too. Without a doubt any person who felt like not being a total POS to me would have legitimately received so much good financial info.. instead people are dead and missing bc I'm busy being a slave and it's not all strippers n burritos being a slave

Pic related.

>>937426303 (OP)
I mean, we all die. Everything must end.
I don't cope, I am impervious to its inevitable arrival.

>>937426476
Yeah I have a pretty immoral moral compass. Not certain if I use mortality as the excuse or something else. Have tons of empathy and hate hurting people but will break the law if it gets me what I want without immediate consequences.

It doesn't scare me because the universe and reality are so inexplicable that I feel like I might wake up in some other reality or ascend to a high consciousness that perceives the other 12 dimensions.

But who doesn't want to sleep forever?

>>937426303 (OP)
Sorry you have a soul which is conscious unto itself, sorry lad.
All your intentionality, unity of mind your entire modes of attention are a function of that. It's a simple, irreducible reality which as it happens for now is united with this body, it's one and the same with it because there's a even higher level unity which contains both the soul and the body, your own personhood.

>>937426303 (OP)
I ruminate on what I could have done the last 10 or 15 years of my life doing nothing, and regret it. Now I want to move forward and make the most of myself. I hate to say it, but money is kind of the end goal, and the more you make the more you can do with it for fun, or for children, or charity. I don't want to die poor; I want to die a millionaire.

>>937433066
That sounds like a romantic notion, but I just can't accept that there was no absolute nothing in the beginning. If what you're saying is just a belief, then I don't want a belief system to simply let go of things.

>>937435996
>I don't want to die poor; I want to die a millionaire
is that an organic desire tho?

>>937437834
does it matter?
desire creates outcomes through action, and if one lives a life of meaninglessness then one should reconsider what they value to live a fulfilling life

>>937437551
I think I vaguely understand the concept that there was no beginning either, but my point still stands that absolute nothingness was a reality. By saying this, I believe that the reality I refer to here is subjective.

The longer you've been alive, the more you've suffered. I'd be surprised if even a normalfag didn't experience some misery. I think that life having an end is reassuring.

>>937438060
Well, in that case, even someone who isn't considered normal has experienced some happiness, and if life never ended, they might eventually experience more happiness than the opposite.

>>937438011
Writing this made me think that after death might be like absolute nothingness, and maybe the universe is like an individual, just like me. Perhaps that's what absolute nothingness feels like for the universe too. Is this what being at one with the universe feels like for everyone as well?

Hey there! I'm a 21-year-old girl from the US, a little on the adventurous side, and I absolutely love getting lost in some steamy chats. There's just something thrilling about pushing boundaries and making guys completely lose their cool while having a blast myself. I'm always down for some fun, but I tend to be a bit shy in person, which is why I prefer flirting through my phone – it's way less stressful! If you're looking for some intense conversations and playful teasing, hit me up. Just add me on the app, but remember to take out the spaces and dashes: e-m yze-t h! Can't wait to chat!

>>937426303 (OP)
There’s no reason to cope. When my meat suit stops working, I’ll just get another one.

>>937426303 (OP)
all we can do is hope either heaven or reincarnation exist
I fear they don't and we are stuck fading away to darkness in a dreamlike state.

>>937440229
What about your self awareness?

>>937426303 (OP)
Try to live life to the fullest to have the minimum amount of regret when it ends.
When it keeps me up at night, I just place my faith and trust in god's kingdom and if that isn't waiting for me, there's nothing I can do about it, so I cope by believing in the universe and time being cyclical, so when I die, I may awaken again in the same body and live the same life with no memory of the past or another body to live another life.
In regards to what I can kinda control, I try to stay healthy, high vo2 max correlates to living longer, my goal is to get rich to both live comfortably, a little longer and if the tech gets that far in my life, I'll replace the failing flesh with trusty robotics while praising my AI overlord in hopes of maybe one day being assimilated into the hivemind.

>>937440764
then you get hit by a bus

>>937440764
But what if the hivemind is a living nightmare? What reason would it have to be enjoyable for you? Maybe if everyone in the hivemind was screened to get in and shared the same desire to be happy all the time, it could work. But that might get dull eventually perhaps adding doses of controlled misery could reset things? You would have to be pretty fucking naive to fall for it everytime no? Or maybe Im just missing what your saying entirely.

>>937431358
I hope so...

>>937426303 (OP)
Kinda sad but then again not really because my empathy has lowered over time, just from seeing the worst in people.

>>937440817
More likely you'd snap your neck autofellating.
>>937440910
Your argument leans on the fallacies that AI would be sadistic and that torture produces better results. Which are both false. It'd be way more effective to make the hivemind parts do monotonous labour while hotwiring their consciousness to derive orgasmic pleasure from it.

>>937440318
My self awareness? It’ll be with me, as it always will be regardless of the costume I decide to wear.

>>937441148
>AI would be sadistic
You seemed to have missed the nuance of my argument. I wasnt suggesting that the hivemind would be inherently sadistic or use torture for “better results.” Instead, I was questioning its quality of experience, whether constant pleasure would lose meaning without contrast and whether trusting an AI hivemind to prioritize human well being is naive. Your focus on pleasure through monotonous labor sidesteps my deeper point about the potential for an unfulfilling or manipulative hivemind.

>>937441513
But your self awareness comes from your brain, which is part of your body. Or are you referring to something like a brain transplant? I thought you were being cynical about how humans reproducing so much has essentially made self awareness meaningless.

>>937431528
>Matter can not be created or destroyed

Completely incorrect on both counts. Most of your other conclusions are also completely inaccurate.

They sound deep and meaningful to a layperson, but you talk about "Hawking Radiation" and stuff the way Star Trek talks about "graviton particle beams", meaning that you use them in such a way that a layperson would be convinced, but not in such a way that someone who is actually educated - like, formally educated - on the subject would be.

Also you can't even spell simple words like "spontaneous".

You're a fraud. You probably pass as "smart" among dumbasses, but you're not smart. You're just good at bullshit.

>>937441581
No, self awareness doesn’t come from the brain. And many scientists and neurologists are starting to see this, that the brain acts as a receptor of consciousness rather than originator. You are not this body, but merely driving it.

>>937442202

>>937427391
Nothing happens after death. No one has ever experienced death because they cease to exist. The only people who will experience your death are the people who care about you.

>>937442575
That too will eventually cease to exist, as in the end, everyone will be dead.

It's like commuting to work every day. You know being on the road can kill you, but you do it anyway. You get used to it and the fear goes away and you do what you can to not screw up.

>>937441960
Who said that I was trying to be smart? I was just explaining my viewpoints. I am not going to get into the nitty gritty of the concept of Hawking radiation to a bunch of people on /b/. And please prove me wrong about matter being able to be created or destroyed. It can only be converted into energy and vice versa.

>Also you can't even spell simple words like "spontaneous".
Holy fuck dude go back to your hole on reddit please

>>937443207
In my theory, you would live that life infinitely, just like you already have lived that life infinitely. You have also lived every other life infinitely. It would probably take an unfathomable amount of bounces for it to happen but it has happened and it always will.

>>937441523
Ah, so that's what you meant.
Well, it is likely that as part of the hivemind, the lack of hormonal impulses would take away serotonin burnout or the entire feeling of being unhappy, because you're no longer human as part of the hivemind.
But even if you're ultimately right, idc, boring conciousness > unconsciously staring into the void
Of course the loving embrace of god in heaven is the best outcome, but once again, that's outside my control.
If the hivemind turns out to be shit and I can't disconnect, I can always take solace in the fact that I'm still technically part of the world of the living.
I'm expecting that it won't be that shit, but either way its a win win in my book.
