Here are some reasons why the outside world as I perceive it is contradictory, non-sensible, and even illogical.
( Also see multiverse cosmology v0.4.x document. )
We seem to be dealing with epistemological demons.
I exhibit a Descarteseque Evil demon - like situation. The demon contorts my perception of the outside world, and may input false emotions and some false thoughts, but I still have my centre-of-consciousness (aka "the soul", or "the ego"), logic, reason, and older memories and acquired knowledge, and skills.
I believed reality is what I was told it must be (by decree of "Science" or "common sense") rather than what I wanted it to be ( re The Selinaverse vision ). As a result, the demon increasingly tried to convince me the world was getting worse, and that I was increasingly ignored, isolated, and unpopular.
But I now know it isn’t and cannot be so. I want the world and the multiverse as I want them!
I do not wish to obey this silly non-reality of yours any more. I intend to break free and to be in the company of all the people I’ve known and loved.
Prior art for my situation:
"Selina Mandrake - The Slayer" - Selina gets sucked into slaying vampires
Labyrinth - Sarah deals with the Goblins.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Buffy Summers gets sucked into a demonic underworld
The Hobbit - Bilbo is drawn out of his comfort zone
H2G2’s Planet Earth as a Computer
"I speak of none other than the computer that is to come after me," intoned Deep Thought, his voice regaining its accustomed declamatory tones. "A computer whose merest operational parameters I am not worthy to calculate - and yet I will design it for you. A computer which can calculate the Question to the Ultimate Answer, a computer of such infinite and subtle complexity that organic life itself shall form part of its operational matrix. And you yourselves shall take on new forms and go down into the computer to navigate its ten-million-year program! Yes! I shall design this computer for you. And I shall name it also unto you. And it shall be called — The Earth."
God and his angels as implementing humans' perception of the universe - an allegory
Invasion of the Body Snatchers - my chat friends become inhuman.
Pirates of the Caribbean: Ghost story - food tastes the same (despite proclamation of being freshly made).
