Oh yeah! I just noticed You gave a Slugbox hairstyle that looks like a shell! That's actually creative! Why put the talent here? |

funny enough i didn't saw all those "more relevant than Cteno" pics until i go anon and seached "meta", see how effective are the filters? is much better thsn bitching! |

I hate to say it, this is one area where the artist has no say. If a fandom wants to consume something, its their will to do so. You can't pick your fans, and you can't control them. |
| PonyRIG #1282539 2 months ago |
^that was for mindcannon |
| bboifatz #1282550 2 months ago |
@518: Sea ponies are from G1, and they are called sea PONIES. Slugbox said Cteno is not a pony, but apparently the fanbase he's attracted is a bit too thick in the skull to understand him when he says that. |

@blissful_dreams
He is a midtier artist not great at all. He likes to hide his mistakes with that shiny oily effect. His anatomy isn't great but its not bad... it passable but sometimes he goes over board with stylization. Also TITS i have never seen someone draw breasts so badly and un-proportional. artist level 6.4/10 (being generous here) |
| mindcannon #1282552 2 months ago |
Well to say that he is a great artist is purely opinions. |

bboi, thats a fandom in a nut shell. We make shit up, we create our own stuff out of others content. We do the same with the characters from the show, why should slugs creations be immune. |
| Blissful_Dreams #1282581 2 months ago |
To everybody
I reject all realities and substitute with none! Reality is nothing more than a pathetic attempt by the brain to create a mediocre form of security. I've moved beyond that. My point? I don't care what you say unless it interests me or it's wrong. I just watch as you all walk asleep. Never truly awake, never thinking. All you do is what you have been told. I have no such boundaries of thought. I do as I damn please, not caring what others have to say, while I do listen and take consideration. I don't take the mainstream pledge for I don't need your admiration. |

| Blissful_Dreams #1282648 2 months ago |
@Zincy
Thanks, I never knew about that. I'm going to look into it. So far it makes sense, complying with Quantum Mechanics. Even Mark Twain, one of the smartest Humans ever was solipsistic apparently. "Life itself is nothing but a vision, a dream. Nothing exists except empty space and you; and you are but a thought." |
| Zincy #1282653 2 months ago |
Well, technically there isn't a way to prove that life isn't an illusion. But there's an old philosophy joke...
Two men walk out of a dissertation on Berkly's observer theory. One of the men turns toward the other and says "Life might really be just an illusion, how would one disprove him" the other man looks down, kicks and rock that hits the other guy and proudly proclaims "I refute it thus!" |
| Blissful_Dreams #1282666 2 months ago |
Only thing I don't agree with is just my mind. There are more minds than mine obviously, but that physical reality dosen't exist. Instead, each mind is in it's own state of precievement. No two minds ever see or think the same thing. Einstein proved that. |
| mindcannon #1282673 2 months ago |
Blissful, stop trying to sound like some all knowing prophet. |
| Zincy #1282682 2 months ago |
She's just talking philosophy. What shes saying is a real idea. |
| Blissful_Dreams #1282684 2 months ago |
@Zincy
I actually wrote a paper about that. The Validity of Reality Theory. It states that it is impossible to prove reality exists, only to disprove it. But upon disproving it, you proved that reality in fact does exist up to, or past point of proving. |
| Zincy #1282692 2 months ago |
Reality is an axiom, it can't be proven within its own system. One would have to be transcendent to do so. |
| bboifatz #1282701 2 months ago |
@Blissful_Dreams: That is why scientists laugh at philosophers. |
| Blissful_Dreams #1282707 2 months ago |
@Zincy
Exactly! Hence you can only disprove... |
| Zincy #1282708 2 months ago |
I however, believe that reality is indeed a finite structure. We may not be able to grasp all of its nuances, but I think it does indeed exist. |
| Zincy #1282714 2 months ago |
Bboi, one could make the argument that our empirical data is merely based on our observations, which since they are within the system, can not be trusted.
Now, I'm not defending solipsism as I think reality is a real structure...just that simply saying "science" isn't a true refutation. |
| Blissful_Dreams #1282719 2 months ago |
@bboifatz
Solipsism is in fact used in science. From a early on, scientists are told not to trust your senses, for that entails YOUR opinion and ideas. Instead, tests have to be constructed outside the scope of one's opinion. The Scientific Method. |
| Anonymous #1282732 2 months ago |
There is no scientific evidence that reality is not real. There is, however, thousands of years of scientifically observed evidence that it does exist. Existentialism and all that is a load of crap made up by a bunch of philosopher douchebags who wanted to feel like they were smarter than everyone around them, kind of like with Scientology except they don't have the balls to admit it's a religious belief. |
| mindcannon #1282735 2 months ago |
Reality means things exist. If there was no reality, then we would not be talking. |
| Zincy #1282745 2 months ago |
Mindcannon ,Unless it was an illsionary system, a simulacrum.
Give me a moment to come up with a basic refutation. |
| Blissful_Dreams #1282746 2 months ago |
@Zincy
I believe reality is just the total of all minds working together. It doesn't actually exist, but the collective thought creates a place that everyone can agree and live in. Not truly there, but apparently around us. |
| Zincy #1282757 2 months ago |
Refuting solipsism empirically would require observations from outside the system, which at present is impossible. However, one could do it rationally. I lack the ability to do it myself, but there are many rational refutations for solipsism that support reality being a real structure. |
| Blissful_Dreams #1282760 2 months ago |
To quote Carl Sagan... "Matter is composed chiefly of nothing."
Anyways, all matter is just bundles of energy. All energy is just bundles of strings. All strings are just Quantum Information. Which means one can turn a apple to an orange if one knows the secret to modifying the information of the universe. |

| Zincy #1282775 2 months ago |
We've stepped out of my area of expertize. I spend my time debating ethics, morality, and theology(mostly providing solid refutations of dogma). When we start getting into the nature of reality...I pull out. |

| Zincy #1282817 2 months ago |
Just wax idiotically about stuff you will never really know and boom, insta philosopher. Its why I avoid debating meta-physics and prefer to debate things that really effect life. Political philosophy, morality and ethics, aesthetics, theology(if only to attack dogma), and sociological philsophy. |
| Blissful_Dreams #1282832 2 months ago |
@796
Time is a illusion, it doesn't exist. What we precieve as the arrow of time is in fact the expansion of the universe. If the universe was static, everything else in it would be too. Also why time apparently slows as you near the speed of light. You are actually approaching the expansion rate and you also compress space in front of you. |
| Gentle_Coltte_of_Leisure #1282833 2 months ago |
Uh... Okay...
rubs temples What if... What if color is all subjective, and we all see different colored wavelengths different ways, and we all have the same favorite "color" but we see it different ways! Like, my favorite color is green, and you say your favorite color is red, but you're just seeing green things as red in your perspective! Was that good? |
| mindcannon #1282838 2 months ago |
So if there is no reality, then how are we typing to each other? |
| Zincy #1282840 2 months ago |
Coltte, that is actually a real question in the field of aesthetics. Congratz, you're a philosopher. Your prize is either a copy of Candie, The God Delusion, Will To Power, or The Prince. |
| Zincy #1282855 2 months ago |
Again mindcannon. Solipsism isn't about there being no reality, its just saying that reality may be illsionary or all together unknowable. |
| Gentle_Coltte_of_Leisure #1282860 2 months ago |

You have to take into account that the earth is shifting so you have to take Ophiuchus, the thirteenth constellation, into account. That might be why some people seem to be shifted by one. |

Some in fact do! Ever heard of John Hutchison? He created a device that modifies atoms. He was promptly visited by the US government and his machines taken. Though some footage still exists. Most say he faked it, but some of what was shown is impossible to fake under his means. |
