Neurodegenarative disorders poke holes in the infinite consciousness idea. Each day the brain slowly wears away, the consciousness of self is never the same.
Not to mention that the universe itself is pretty certain to end eventually. If there isn’t a big crunch, then every single atomic partlcle has a half life, one day there will be near 0 protons left.
My take on consciousness is that you essentially ‘die’ each time you go into a deep sleep. When you wake, a new stream of consciousness starts in a brain ever so slightly different from the one that fell asleep the night before. Your new consciousness remembers everything you once did and is in a brain that handles stimuli and emotions almost exactly as the day before. But it isn’t the same, it cant be as cells have died or been replaced during the down time that was a deep sleep.
Better to think there is an end after death, infinite consciousness would be terrible as you would eventually just be utterly sick of existence after a googleplex of years has passed by. I don’t understand the concept of heaven, as good as it would be at first, it would eventually become torture of non stop existence.

In cookie lingo, double chocolate means the cookie dough is chocolate flavoured as well as having choc chips. Triple chocolate means the chocolate dough with choc chips also has a chocolate coating on the bottom.
- Comment on Is it safe to use pans with peeling nonstick coating? 1 year ago:
My girlfriend is a materials scientist specialising in non-stick coatings.
The first time she came to my house, I had to throw away all teflon with even a scratch on it. She said once the surface is broken it will leach chemicals into your food.
She said they are perfectly safe whilst the coating is in tact and uses non-stick pans herself. Just replace them as soon as you notice the surface is broken.

I understood she brought tedros back as a fuck you to her team who were patting themselves on the backs thinking they were geniuses. Plus assuming she is twisted to further humiliation of tedros, who is now her obeying play thing.
I would assume further seasons would have been her and tedros finding talent and furthering power in the music industry whilst they each scheme for who is in control.

I liked the show. I understood the ending was that Joslyn? Was the most evil and revenge driven of everyone.
She brings Tedros back as revenge against her team who thought they controlled the whole situation. They were celebrating and patting themselves on the back, and tedros return was an ultimate fuck you to them and showing that she is in charge.
On top the tedros return was ultimate humiliation for him. She brings him on stage then shows how she has total control over him. He is not the confident controlling pimp from the start anymore, he is now destroyed and just a lap dog plaything for her to use as she wants.
This means at the end she has fucked over and controls everyone, with her fans never idolising her more.
