I don't think you understand that getting some hokey answers when you do an asklemmy thread about the supernatural is par for the course.

My point still stands even if its modified a bit.

It's only your mind active in this scenario. You might as well just ask to know everything in existence.

Knowing everything in existence is just merging with the universe which isn't what I want. I want my ego to still exist, even if only temporarily. I don't want to go from human -> THE ALL, I want to follow the path with the extra time I was given.

I don't see how you get to the ascension part anyway, you can only absorb the answers you look for, you don't get time and space to do anything with it.

If I don't get time and space then it doesn't matter what I ask anyway as I'd be dead before I got to appreciate the answer. "Oh what's the secret of the universe?" But then I'm dead before I even get to think about what it means. May as well just ask what's on TV tomorrow because I wouldn't get anything from it.

Tell me all the digits in Pi or some other irrational number so that I can get pseudo eternal life.

Since we have a wish-granting entity then that means the supernatural is somewhat real and I use my newfound time as well as the frozen world to learn everything I wanted and possible ascend beyond humanity.

Republicans can’t retaliate in kind because they have no precedent or legal backing to do so.

They don't have the legal backing to do a lot of things they already do so I don't see how that will stop anything.

Plus they can just decide to give all the electoral votes to Trump regardless of the vote total which would accomplish much the same thing while being entirely constitutional.

I did too but only because the Crusader's Crossbow can destroy cocky snipers in long range and most classes at medium.

Literally half of all players on TF2 are LGBT. I've been playing TF2 about 20 hours in the last 2 weeks and I have YET to see a non-trans medic.

They all have Mediguns labeled "Estrogen Dispenser" or other such trans references.

Yeah...he literally put $1400 in your pocket, assuming you're American, at the beginning of his administration in response to the covid-19 virus.

Trump did it twice, plus Biden promised $2000 and walked that back when he was in office.

Ignoring everything else, Trump pushed for the checks and called on congress to make increases to what was given out. Biden sent out a lower amount than what he promised and then presided over the clusterfuck that was the end of the pandemic.

There's a good reason for the going for the last one: Opportunity Cost.

If you're in a situation and have an ability that can only be used once a day, you can never really know if this encounter will be the optimal use. So you hold off on it and thus get less utility. Even if you are regularly using it, having something you can always get utility out of is far more valuable than something that is strong but wasted sometimes.

I hate their unconscious brains but I think their consciousness is okay.

Humans are driven more by unconscious monkey brain then they care to admit. The people they like, hate, and pay attention to are largely unconscious behaviors. In this way, a human in a social setting is pure animal. The personality and ego are mere tools used by the human organism to navigate these social situations.

The human organism is a unconscious, cruel thing that should be abandoned as soon as possible. The egos created from it are okay. But asking them to separate themselves is hard for the trained let alone the layman.
