The French for "if I'm not mistaken" is "si je ne me trompe pas" (lit. "if I do not trick myself").

Does this mean that the French knew about the whole denial thing humans tend to go through? As in, aware of this mechanism?

Also it sounds like a hint of selfcestuous hatelove.

I need to discuss some concepts that demand knowledge of Homestuck, Pokemon and His Dark Materials series. The only person that I know is into all 3 of them is not done with Homestuck and I don't know where to talk about this. Others probably only know/are into 2 out of 3.

I'll just leave the key words here: Gnosticism, demiurge, the concept of god, deism, pantheism, pandeism, knowledge as both the problem and its own solution, cooperation between different species or individuals (absence of distinction between of), the point of view of the universe, the point of view from nowhere, the problem of points of view (again, leading to the problem of knowledge), the manifestation of probabilities, etc.

And nihilism. In tie with dreambubbles. Not exactly about reality because from certain points of view there's no such thing as reality. Just like the nonexistence of order and chaos. You know, it's entropy, but what is entropy? The same entropy is both chaotic and orderly dependent on when, where and how you look.

Moving vs. static. Dust of things. God as a law rather than being. God as a law and also a being. The entire existence as God, no, even the nonexistence. God is this concept of...

Time as multidimensional... thing. Advanced physics. The end of time (as in, when colliding with space in 90 degrees angle).

The obsession with power. Control, possession, love. Both desire and fear as fantasm. Thanatos and Eros.

Adam and Eve. "Adam and Steve", or Michael and Lucifer (this is about path, think of Red and Green, and John and Karkat, and Lyra and Will) (this part might need knowledge of Spiral). Cain and Abel. The mark of Cain. Red, Green, sburb/sgrub players, Lyra and Will, as cains.

Going to need knowledge of Demian here, but the concept of two births for each individual. The idea of birth as the other side of the coin of death. The concept of parents as pillars and them collapsing.

...I think I'm getting a vertigo from thinking that much without having the capacity to understand them.

Ok, so now I have watched 3/6 episodes of Sherlock (BBC). I'm feeling that I might get an overdose if I watch one more today.

Thanks to those who gave me a final push into watching this.

I don't know if I want to complain about the changes they made in Irene Adler. Of course, everybody's changed, so I guess I shouldn't have problems with her changes.

Ok, it's not like they are bad, but it's hard to find any other fics beside them and gen. I want Moirallegiance and Ashen, is that too much to ask? I mean real moira and ashen, not the kind that's ambiguously erotic.

And not only with Homestuck fanfics here, I mean all fandoms.

For human fics, there are also eros, phileo, storge and agape. And many others. Not just eros or storge.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

How I've missed them ;A;

Edit: Karkat, you're so precious.

Now get on with the others too please. oh fuck that was a spoiler too ) I wish we could have multi-linear reading here so we can read about all of them at once.

Edit edit: Also, thank goodness that... wait, I told myself no spoilers.
