Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it. Yes, the idea is fundamentally absurd - akin to substance dualism or eliminative materialism - but worth a look nevertheless. And the thought that I’m the only mind in the room goes a long way when trying to come to grips with our current reality!
Loved Cuties. I rarely take time to watch any shows that take longer than 30 minutes to consume. Not for a lack of interest but due to too many competing interests. Just over 5 minutes is doable. It took me back to years of reading Heavy Metal magazine.
Solipsism: Back in high school my friend Mike and I used to get high and imagine there was no world beyond our experience... it manifested as you opened door and entered new scenes. Truth is, I sometimes slip into that mindset when I am "sober".
I like it as a creative exercise. Rather than anything akin to loneliness, I feel "in control". It is pure escapism and, therefore, I highly recommend it.
Your treatment of solipsism was really well done. To be a pure solipsist would be absurd, but it’s a good mental path to follow from time to time.
