    So I was playing some 4k HDR Halo 3 Multiplayer and damn those Halo 3 maps just keep looking better and better. I could do with darkening the ambient light so the levels really sold but their texturing and attention to detail was amazing. Assembly is practically God level arting for it's era. I couldn't help but to stop and check out the skybox for a while. As good as I remember the level being back then, I can't believe it was almost half the quality that they had created.

    I remember the only thing I found all that interesting about the art on Cold Storage was the glass wall, the specimen, and the infection stuff. After running around there for a while now I can see how much love that was put into that level. It makes me wonder what it would look like if it was dropped into the latest engine and had the lighting rebuilt. The only real touches I would do after that would be to remake the flood stuff just because.

    The MCC may need more work but I'm so happy to see these levels looking their best.

    In this instance, and keeping in mind the second question I raised, I look at the thoughts or electrical impulses in the brains of the animals you mentioned as different intensities of that highway.

    Things like instinct or the basic 5 senses (in humans case, other animals with different/more senses would be included as such) would be the interstate and massive 8 lane roads that link the system. Those would have the most intensity, and could explain why even though most animals lack any of the more complex thoughts that humans have, they can still have a very real and commanding presence. If you think of the intensity I'm speaking of in terms of light, and that we level the playing field by assuming (as a form of measurement) that all beings can experience this light equally, it can make sense that the majority of life experiences at least some of the same light.

    Moving on to the more complex light (or light with less intensity), I equate that to thoughts like 'I know what my favorite band is' and 'where am I in the universe?". The light isn't muddled because it's not as vibrant at its source, but there are numerous other factors involved which reflects and refracts the light until its intensity is diminished. The animals and humans capable of seeing this low intensity light allow them more choices and growth of their thoughts, as they can travel down highways (in this instance they would be better described as residential streets) other animals cannot.

    People should read Carl Jung.

    Also, sleep paralysis where the wind feels like it is blowing you is one of the more trippy experiences I have had lately.

    So only the experts in the field agree on it, and others outside the field arent sure? Understood lmao.

    To be honest I'm not really interested in the quantum physics proof of multiple dimensions. If most therotical physicists agree, that's all I need to confirm my own belief as there is MOUNTAINS of sociological proof multiple dimensions exist.

    This is really ironic coming from a guy whose avatar is symbolism from creative content of a practicing Kabbalahist...

    I used it ironically because it sums up how most people take what I say - its not an endorsement of Ariana Grande or 'transdmensional' perceptual and behavioral manipulation by a 7000-year-old changeling cult

    I thought he just really liked ****** orgasm symbolism.

    Also, I want to hear his opinions on the 7000 year old changeling cult

    Also, there are multiple forms of Kabbalah. Are we kicking it hermetic or Abrahamic here?

    @Dunco yeah lol
    but also most other people I've met irl
    can't read the word before 'orgasm', but the beavers aren't beavers, they are prairie dogs that are supposed to represent men who don't praise and sacrifice to 'God the Woman'

    I think it's an ingenious way of controlling people, both hermetic and Abrahamic versions.
    It fundamentally removes the choice to think from those who follow it, while also presenting a kind of purpose. The hermetic versions are really tempting for lost and broken people, the Abrahamic versions are great for getting kids while they are young or breaking others when they are older. It's absolutely sick either way you cut it.

    V A G I N A and thanks for the clarification. I didn't watch the video. lol

    also where does the changeling thing come from even though I know it is banter. I looked up 7000 year old cults with no luck.

    Eh, I don't really want to. Bug societies (Bees/ants) and the fact that there was a religion that worshiped a goddess where the men had to castrate themselves is more than enough for me to avoid something like that.
