This question has probably been asked here a hundred times already,

hardcore hedonism

but it makes religious people butthurt for some reason

What of mankind? Honor your father and mother. Select your friends. Choose a nice wife. That's it.

I was thinking something like this, it's really the only thing that can escape logic but usually requires something to achieve it like money requiring labor, and for someone so disenfranchised with life in general labor is a miserable trade-off for a glorified drug binge of hedonistic activities

I was also thinking that, but then I realized my family that already exists and the one I will go on to create don't matter any more than a single grain of sand on a beach. Why bother?

We are inevitabilities of infinity. Chance dictates reality. Boring stable things are common and repetitious, yet chance does allow for technicality as a rarity. So, as scarcity creates value, technicality is valuable. We should attempt to create the most technical construction possible, of the grandest scale and minutest detail. We continue that until we can defeat infinity and allow the universe to die.

Why take it all so seriously?

Why worry about things outside of your control?

That's really the only thing we can ever achieve, isn't it?

Somehow breaking our bestial ways of violence and instead of repeating our history as we have been, uniting or otherwise diverting the majority of our efforts toward finding the "end" of science and reality as we know it.

Is there an end? Is there any limit to what we can learn and explore? Or is it more of a time limit which we have to understand our universe before it fizzles out and the process is started all over again?

I'm sorry for being so cryptic; what I really mean to ask is to what end can we transcend all of these universes within universes within simulations if at all to any sort of meaningful "end" ? Just the sheer scale of possibilities is so discouraging that I wonder if it's pointless.

I suppose it's just a natural way of thinking to stop doing what I am in this moment and look forward toward the ultimate result of my time here on this planet. If what I do now has no real effect in the future, why would I want to suffer the displeasure of experiencing it at all?

Give, but give until it hurts.

Don't consider yourself separate from the universe, you are a part of it. You must exist, here as you are. For infinity demands it, if you aren't here now then you will be in another universe. You occupy this space of infinity. Only you. Nothing else can, for if they did it would not be you. Also nothing you do can stop you from being you. Even death, for you will always exist in time past, and again aeons from now within the cycles of infinity.

If that were true, the infinite amounts of my previous self would be here to comfort me. But if your thinking is correct then one may never know of the other, defeating the comforting thought of immortality through infinity.

Your 'self' is only the memories you've gained in your lifetime, with some hard coded instinct. Think of consciousness as a singular force of the universe, a field that is only reactive to technical, precise circumstances like those within the brain (probably electromagnetic). The only reason the field doesn't seem singular is because we have only a weak connection to it that can't be connected between us. So don't think specifically about all the instances of your specific mentality, but the expansion of all consciousness as a whole.

If they matter to you, then enjoy the time you have with them. Thete doesn't have yo be a greater meaning to anything. Live for youself and what/who you care about on a personal level.
