Does Skyy exist or does he smoke to many blunts? If indeed the answer is both, then the question becomes who is Skyy? Who is Skyy, and what are the parameters of his existence? If Skyy does indeed exist, does he exist in the empty vacuum of space alone and in complete solitude. Can we infer that if he exists we also might or even must also exist.

Another question, If for the sake argument, we are now to assume Skyy does indeed exist, can he now know with certainty that others exist or even that we ourselves exist? Can we now knowing that he exists, confer upon ourselves with certainty the knowldge that we also now exist? Does our own existence imply with certainty his own existence?
Can Skyy’s now established existence in any way interact or influence our own existence, either for better or worse? Or conversely does our existence have any influence over his existence?
Do we develop naturally and independently without undue influence from external forces? Do we derive influence from our environment and the external world? Is who we are, deeply dependent on those around us, our culture, arbitrary dominant normative cultural narratives, shared relativistic archetypal unconscious paradigms (Carl Jung’s collective unconscious) and other factors that my be arbitrary, relativistic, and perhaps completely out of alignment as to who and what we are? Who or what determines our true natures and our place in the vast cosmology of the universe?
Is it indeed possible that we live in a illusory and self created world generated by unconscious beliefs completely arbitrary conceptions of the nature of our physical world (as many of the ancient Hindu texts would say, the world of Maya)? Is our conception of self and even the world itself partially self generated by our conceptual reality and relativistic shared belief systems?
Let's go back to Skyy for a minute. Do any of us really Know him or do we see him thru the prism of our own misinterpretations and perhaps preconceived ideas about our nature and his nature? Maybe our perception of him is at least partially delusional based on erroneous and long held misconceptions of our own nature, thereby making an accurate conception of him almost impossible, and consequently, only allowing for a very limited and incomplete comprehension at best. Perhaps we can only see him through the lens of our own conceptual framework which has been shaped by arbitrary and even misguided, cultural representations about the nature and essence of ourselves. Perhaps we see Skyy in many ways as a mirror to ourselves, conceptualizing him through either known or unknown aspects of our own nature. Is it possible there is more to him than we can comprehend through our limited sensory perception of the external world.
If Skyy is in someway unique or perhaps even an aberration, would it benefit us in anyway to make a more comprehensive investigation into Skyy? Skyy’s own distopian nature, his incomprehensible viewpoints, and even his apparently delusional belief systems make him very enigmatic to say the least.
Maybe the answer to this question would depend on the nature of Skyy. Is Skyy a self absorbed , compulsive, manic depressive, narcissist, unworthy of recognition and indeed possessing not which is of value? Is he perhaps an arrogant, elitist, pseudo intellectual with an axe to grind and a malicious agenda? Maybe he is a true misanthrope, with a hatred of humanity that is only lessened slightly on those rare occasions when he is lucky enough to get laid or find some good mind altering substance. Maybe he has nothing of value to contribute to anyone and we should all ignore him and spend more time on Twitter and Snapchat.
Conversely is it possible that there is more to him than our current comprehension of him allows us to know? Is it indeed possible that he is a thoughtful, reasoned and highly intelligent person with many unique and original ideas that could possibly be useful? Could an effort at comprehension of him or anyone, possibly lead to our own greater self-awareness and understanding? Maybe lurking deep down in the dark twisted corners of his mangled psyche is some small fragment of something useful and good. Maybe if we take the time to look a little closer we could somehow benefit from it. Is there anything useful that could be accomplished by a more thorough investigation?
Are the answers to these questions unfathomable and or perhaps a complete waste of time? Can we ever even partially know ourselfs, let along someone so dystopian, delusional and mangled as Skyy? Is it ever useful to attempt greater connection and understanding with others whom are obviously different, alien and incomprehensible?
Again we are led back to the nature of Skyy. Does Skyy have a clue to his own nature? Maybe he doesn’t even know who he is and like many others presumably, lacks even a marginal understanding of himself and his place in the cosmos. Perhaps he is merely driven by unconscious feelings and motivations and his reactions to such, of which he is profoundly unaware. Maybe his perception of himself is delusional and based on arbitrary institutionalized believes and clouded by misguided relativistic societal/cultural normative concepts about the very nature of human existence. Maybe who he is, is indeterminate and still evolving at this time. Perhaps who is, is partially created by the misguided notions of those whom in his life, who have had oversized influence upon him for better or worse. Perhaps our projections onto him make his very nature indeterminant. Is who he is, somehow linked to our perceptions of him? Is his nature, his identity, indeed his very existence linked to others or is it independent of any extant influence?
If indeed we were to find some connection to him, how would his fate intersect ours? If we could somehow influence Skyy and or vice a versa, should we or should he endeavor to do so? Is it within our power or his, to somehow impact the other and what could be achieved from doing so? Could some form of mutual interaction possibly create some synergistic effect on one or both of us? If we were to help him, how would this effect us if at all? Could the mere knowledge of his presumed existence send us spiraling downward toward the abyss or is there perhaps some useful information to be garnered from the endeavor to somehow examine him or others more closely?
We don’t really have enough information to answer many of these questions at present. Can we and if so should we try to apply deductive logic and reasoning to any of these questions or is it a complete waste mental energy and time that could be better utilized watching the Kardashians and Mr. Beast? Are there any answers to be found here or just more annoying and difficult questions? What could be accomplished by a more thorough investigation? So many questions, so little time. Should we, could we, would we?
