On the one hand, having consciousness exposes you to a cornucopia of psychological suffering that no creature should ever endure, but on the other hand sometimes you enjoy a nice sunset

Being human can not be a punishment because there is no higher order to all this. However, it is at least extremely bad luck. Even if this isn't hell, it's improbably close to it.
but seriously, this is the best way to look at things. being able to understand the horrors of the universe also means i can understand my favorite books and video games, and maybe that’s worth it
I think dog level consciousness must be the peak. Imagine literally every day being the best day of your life just because some guy puts kibble in a bowl, but having enough awareness to feel affection for said guy.
On the other hand, the terrifying nature of the Universe reveals itself when you begin to understand the quantum laws of Consciousness creating itself and reality.
I miss the old ones. Why are they rebranding the good ones into action games where I have enough after watching the trailer? Want the good old fairy tales back. VII, VIII and X where so full of romantic, wonder and melancholy. I want those kinds of games.😍 They can keep the fancy graphics.😋

Pros of being conscious: you can eat tasty food, bust nuts by yourself or with other people, look at beautiful vistas, have friends, do fun stuff
My new mantra
Except the start-of-winter sunrises that are after 8 AM. Thank you, Earth's axial tilt.
Also I’m gonna see that vampire movie with credits from the movie theater app.
Its all been worth it, to be able to also live a life where I can experience cheeseburgers
and Im not joking
they really do make life worth living for me
