Fully deterministic Eternal Recurrence
By Nietzsche (before I realized that hard determinism isn't necessarily Nietzsche's metaphysical stance).

Every pain and annoyance ever, eternally and for everyone. You were a Chinese farmer who's wife was raped and tortured in front of you by the Japanese before they took you to Unit 731 to test plagues on you, freeze your fingers and hit them with sticks until they fall off and finally vivisect you without anesthesia? Enjoy the rest of eternity feeling that once an otherwise just as shitty lifetime.

Bonus: there is only one consciousness that eternally goes through all beings one at a time so that what to us seems simultaneous is in fact lived eternally in succession so that "I" get to feel absolutely everyone's pain and misery forever.

I guess it doesn't feel as scary now, but at the time I was thinking that in an "uncaring" universe even the worst scenario is possible. Or maybe this is Hell and all pleasure and relief is just there to make pain feel more real.

Ok, enough edge for today as I finished shitposting just as I finished shitting.
