Being alone is not torment to everyone
This isn't just being alone. This is being in a black void for an incomprehensible amount of time.
I would say this is literally as alone as one could be...
And that is being alone. No stimulus whatsoever
No, it isn't. You have not experience no stimulus what-so-ever, no living person has. Being alone is living without other people in your life. No one has experienced anything, even slightly comparable, to floating aimlessly through space, for a literal eternity.
How is that not being alone? Corner logic eludes me
I said it's not just being alone. It is more than being alone, being alone is only part of it.
Then what is the other parts?
Being alone is being without other people. This is also being without physics. The universe would be expanding away from your location faster than the speed of light. There are just a lot of things to consider that go far beyond simply being alone.
Ok thank you for explaing a little deeper. Im still not convinced because to me the absence of environment is still being alone. For the simple reason that you are able to think and perceive the absense that means you exist. And since you exist in nothing, you.are.alone.
Yes, I am not saying you aren't alone, I am saying this goes way beyond just being alone.
There is a room they made to be as sensory free as possible. Walls with sound absorption cones and pitch black, that sort of thing.
The longest someone could bare it was 45 minutes.
And they could still hear their blood rushing inside their ear and their heartbeat. Here that wouldn't even be a thing.
No stimulus makes you go insane.
I would love to give that a go
But it wouldn't be a black void? My second thought was "where are all the stars?".
if you were not affected by physics the universe would be expanding away from you faster than light.
That may be true if, but it isn't the case in the comic or else the nanosecond she became a ghost she would be in the black void?
So either it is void in an instand or it is eternity in ever changing light? Like a kaleidoscope?
If you had a good telescope, or something passed you within relatively close range, from what I remember from school, you could see stuff. The red shifted light from galaxies moving away faster than the speed of light due to expansion could be seen with a really good telescope. If something passed within normal visible ranges you would see the object and blue to red shifts past you. Exactly what that would like is not really known.
You would see stuff initially, as like the solar system, then local light emitting bodies, grew further away from you, but you would spend most of your time in still blackness once the part of the universe you were in expands away to far for your eyes to pick up on the light. However I am not an astrophysicist, things might be different than I learned.
