god the fact you can just do this on command (well, i can at least?) is so cool. what else is even like that, a way you can easily tear a hole in “reality”…

maybe i'm too normal. do any of my insane friends have cool abilities to break reality that i don't have. i would love to know

oh and for a scene that's sufficient self-similar in the right ways you can create a false image this way, where the two images are aligned, but not correctly, so you get an exciting false depth. this isn't usually very stable but it's fun

oh my god

My Pavlovian conditioning made me read the last sentence as "this is yuri, to me" against my will and every sense I have

@hikari hikari you are slowly turning into haruhi

@demize i already know some isekaijin, not sure about espers or time travellers,

@hikari Sometimes when I'm bored in a meeting I'll move my eyes such that two different people's faces overlap in my cognition and merge into a new hybrid person.

If I cross my eyes and close one eyelid, the remaining eye will be out of focus. I can control how blurry the world is, but without the distraction of overlapping images.

If I continuously swivel my eyes, incandescent lights leave continuous streaks but flickering LEDs leave dotted lines. Flickering lights are surprisingly common.

@johnnesky oh yeah i love the dotted lines effect! dlp projectors are particularly fun to do this for.

never tried face-merging yet though, gotta experience this

@hikari @johnnesky Ever tried looking at stereograms (magic eye images)?

@jernej__s @hikari
Ooh, another thing related to that: those games where there's two versions of a picture with a set of small differences and you have to find them all? It's super easy for me to just cross my eyes so they overlap and then all the differences pop out at me.

@johnnesky @hikari Hah, I used to do the same.

@hikari my left eye is kinda near-sighted, to the extent that if it’s in focus (max distance is like 15 cm lol) then the *other* eye would be straining to remain focused, so it just automatically gives up and stops trying to converge.

so when I take off my glasses and bring something up close, I have one image properly zoomed in and the other just idly fucking around somewhere nearby, like “yeah I was working double duty all day, you be useful for once”

(or it decides to focus on an entirely different object that’s somewhere further away, and the brain tries to alpha-blend the two, which is also neat)
