Earlier today I was bored and wrote this down with a sharpie. It really makes you think of how big things in the universe can be. Sorry for bad quality, I don't own a scanner




Cheers,
Thomas

That's the kind of thing I would like to see graffitti'd all over the place. Philosophical Wonderment. Instead of some dude's name.

It was inevitable that they should make that claim sooner or later: the logic of their position demanded it. Not merely the validity of experience, but the very existence of external reality, was tacitly denied by their philosophy. The heresy of heresies was common sense. And what was terrifying was not that they would kill you for thinking otherwise, but that they might be right. For, after all, how do we know that two and two make four? Or that the force of gravity works? Or that the past is unchangeable? If both the past and the external world exist only in the mind, and if the mind itself is controllable what then?"

idk, those dudes' names look pretty cool sometimes.

i prefer seeing random drawings like words and penises... and smiley faces... shit that makes me laugh... i don't like thinking any more than i have to...

and to the OP...
yeah, the universe is big.
but once i understood the word infinite, i didn't really care much for what was "out there" anymore.

"Physicist Axel Mellinger spent nearly two years traveling 26,000 miles across South Africa, Texas and Michigan. What does he have to show for it? Well, he's cobbled together a stunning 648 megapixel panorama of the Milky Way as seen from Earth, using 3,000 individual photographs. The Central Michigan University professor wants to make the image available for planetariums, as it's large enough to serve educational purposes. It even shows stars that are 1,000 times too faint to be seen by the human eye, so this is a Milky Way like you've never seen."
