choose only one rule

So the mug is the best choice by far, due to its universe-breaking abilities surrounding temperature. Setup a Stirling engine on that for infinite power.
- I do have to admit it's a bit disheartening to post that pic, and then people react to it by looking how to use the objects to 'hack' the nature of reality.
  
  OP: "Hey, guys! Here are some objects that hack the nature of reality."
  Posters: Uses them to further hack the nature of reality, just in other ways
  OP:
  
  I mean, that magic candle single handedly gives hope for reversing universal entropy. Everything else might be personally fulfilling but that thing could be the key to preventing the heat death of the universe.
  Which would be pretty personally fulfilling too imo.
  
  mein freund, some of us prefer to focus on extracting the most material value out of these hypothetical objects, simply because we want to. it's fun to imagine the possibilities with the infinite energy from the candle and the mug.
  
  I agree. And thank you for the heartwarming content ❤️
  
  That was my realization when I invited people to my minecraft server and saw people dig a whole and breed cows just to kill them for xp, while I was over there giving them grass and water and a nice fence
- I dont know how much energy you'd get per hour from a hot mug though. I'm much more intrigued by a blanket that would keep you safe in the arctic as well as the Sahara.
  
  It depends on how you define the words "drink" and "warm". If "drink" includes something like molten tungsten, and "warm" includes 6200F then you can get a bunch of energy out of it
  
  Who would pick being safe in the arctic when an antidote for existential dread is right there?
- The blanket too, it keeps whatever it covers at 36.5~37.5 °C.

They need to buff the candle. Stress is almost impossible? Lol watch me.
- Candle that never burns out means fire in a vacuum. Pretty powerful stuff.
  
  Huge scientific implications

favorite mug is the best for breaking the laws of physics and generating infinite energy - though the blanket and the candle also have infinite heat, the mug would be the most versatile, as you could fill it with a super-hot liquid, then treat it like an RTG, generating electricity from the temperature difference between the mug and its environment. use the mug as your spaceship's power supply, and you'll never even need big honkin photovoltaic panels !
- With the blanket you can walk on the sun though. (Assuming that you won't get crushed by gravity)
- I love how this post was meant to be cozy, and the first thing you think of is breaking reality.
  I would pick the candle!
  
  Yeah infinite energy source was my first thought as well (mug/candle). Might be able to come up with some amazing uses for the blanket as well.
- Candle. Infinite energy, plus no stress.
  
  How does one recuperate the energy from a candle to transform it to something useful? Also, would it's output be enough to power anything meaningful in a reasonable time anyway?
  
  This is the right answer
- Hate to burst your bubble, but the favorite mug is actually just a perfect insulator. Energy go in, energy no come out.

... Where do I buy this bear?
I got a lot of emptiness
- mood tho

I'm gonna need some more information on this memery.
What kind of memes do they produce there?

the mug and candle are just free energy
- Put Magma in the mug
  Place the mug under a large water tank
  Use it to spin a turbine
  Attach alligator clips to my balls
  Good old infinite energy
- yeah, hook the mug up to a generator for a post-scarcity future
- as is the blanket !
- With the blanket you basically no longer need heating

treasure stone pleaseee i got the bad axniety >< i would mind the bear eithrr mrrp
- No joke, you can make this treasure stone yourself.

Fuck the rest that pillow is the only way to go. Dreaming means I hit REM every night which means I am better at most of the other times almost automatically

I will literally settle for just one quality of one of these. Give me the "perfect temperature blanket," I don't even care if it's soft or the right size. If it somehow stabilized my temperature so it didn't feel like it fluctuated 20⁰ every hour, I would sleep ~~like a baby~~

cuddly bear
- i need this how acquire
  
  it's a plushie dreadful! i love them!
  https://plushiedreadfuls.com/collections/plushiedreadfuls
  i have the gender dysphoria and the anxiety one and i want the bpd and migrane ones next!
  they also have sexuality ones and the lesbian one is so cute!

Take the blanket, move to Antarctica with laptop and star link, never be bothered again.

If I was a fae creature, I'd get the endless candle so I could lure people to my hut in the forest and they would not get a sense of danger at all (assuming everyone around the candle can also feel the effects by smelling it)
- Especially with the meme-alia feature bringing endless memes into their mind to sooth them
  
  Memes, the DNA of the soul.

If not for the "almost", I'd have chosen the candle for sure, but as long as it's not COMPLETELY impossible, my ADHD/anxiety combo is GOING to find something to stress about.
So yeah, I'm going to go with the treasure stone and hope people don't get the wrong idea about me fiddling in my pocket at high pressure moments 😁

The fact that the pillow won't help my awful insomnia (or help you fall asleep in general) makes it so close to being the best choice to me, but it falls short in the most frustrating way.
- Technically it says every night not every sleep it gives you good dreams, so either you'll be forced asleep so you can dream or you'll have pleasant day dreams while you lie awake at least.

Good dream pillow, basically doubling my percieved livespan, potentially more depending on how dream time relates to real life time.
- But then you'll never wake up feeling rested

Damn, usually these challenges are pretty bad and there's only one or two good options so it makes choosing easier but this one is horrible becuase everything is amazing. I want it all!
- Take the stone first. Then have the courage to grab the rest. :)

bear and pillow seem to have the most utility -- having 100% good dreams must be incredibly blissful. but i do feel empty often as well

My treasure stone is a flask
- With nice, cool water in it right?
  ...right?

The pillow sounds like the ultimate psychodelic drug

The others have cool abilities, but I'd take the Treasure Stone - I'm anxious when it comes to confrontation and speaking, so something I could hold onto to make me more confident in myself would be a godsend.

Unspoken curses of each item:
Magic blanket - you will never get to taste a cold drink or feel a cool breeze again
Good dream pillow - you will be asleep every hour of sundown to sunrise
Cuddly bear - you will always feel empty when you are not hugging it
Endless candle - you will never feel stressed enough to feel the need to be productive again
Favorite mug - you will never get your hot drinks back
Treasure stone - you will progressively devolve into a narcissist the more you touch it
- You're just making the pillow even better
  
  Yeah, Sleeping Beauty was supposed to be suffering under a curse. Sleeping for 100 years sounds great to me.
- Blankets curse would suck but pillows would be great, less time in reality yes please. Bears curse is already a thing so whatever. Endless candles curse? Just vibe stress free and then have a nice stress free suicide when I'm out of money? Honestly sounds ideal. Good curses on mug and stone tho
- You could just take the blanket off

The pillow is the only one that can't be replicated
- How do you replicate the stone?
  
  My wedding ring has the same powers
- I'd take the treasure stone and go on the amazing race, can't really replicate those effects

Fuck. I need that bear.

GIVE ME THE BEAR

bear easily

can the pillow make ultraviolent ptsd nightmares go away
- Yes
  
  :o

treasure stone, because I struggle so much with self-esteem.
I almost chose the cuddly thing because sometimes social anxiety eats my insides and then I feel empty and need a friend to hug. But I also think that the treasure stone would help with that too because then I would be brave and more comfortable with being by myself for that moment.

The pillow... Sleep is my nemesis.
Unless the blanket does away with menopausal hot flashes. I'm not near that age, but I dread them still.

its hard to not game the physics with these kind of choices.
but personally i'd go with the candle or the pillow. i'd pay anything to directly improve my mental health than anything else

First learn to spell
- first learn to be fun :3
  
  I refuse! :D

Pillow

the mug so I can put plasma in it and boom infinite energy

I spend 1/3rd of my life asleep, and the pillow would guarantee that third is good and memorable. Absolutely the pillow.

The pillow. I would have peace. Probably wouldn't stop sleeping though, then lose my job.. hmmm maybe not.
Tough call.

Though choice, but I'd take the stone.

- Try a lighter blanket and a heavier sheet. A good set of flannel sheets will help regulate temperatures.

That one that give me good memery. I like good memery.

I am choosing all of them and you cant stope mwhahah

Magic blanket, easiest choice of my life

I’d kill for that mug if it could also keep drinks cold
I make iced lattes every morning and use a mug for it, and I’d kill for it to stay cold for more than 5 minutes without adding so much ice it becomes weak
- Leave your mug in the freezer for a few minutes before you make the latte!
  
  That sounds like a good idea, but I’m also worried about pulling a shot of hot espresso and shocking my beloved mug.

I already have the bear so I'd go with the blanket. I'm always just a bit too cold.

cuddly bear cause I hate feeling empthy at times, favorite mug cause I am going to put a very hot liquid in it. Than harvest the heat energy that the mug uses to keep the liquid warm, to ensure that the maximum amount of energy is created to preserve the temperature I am going to put it in the fridge. Infinite energy source. 👍
- Basically, you're exploiting that poor mug.
  Maybe that's why you feel so empty.

Blanket for sure. You could travel anywhere and not worry about the temperature. Even if you ended up homeless you could sleep anywhere.

For the memes, the candle of infinite burning, for the comfort, blankie.
- blankie
  *man why are these always so huge ]:

I literally have a heart shaped treasure stone. The weight is really grounding.

Cuddly bear doesn't really love me. It's just after my money.
- If it makes you feel better, I don't love you for your money. I don't love you at all.
  
  You and the bear.

blahaj already provides #3

Endless candle. Infinite free energy

Having hashimoto I'll always take the blanket.

A good mug is really the closest to heaven i will get

definitely the blanket, or the pillow. Sleep is most important

Endless candle would be good for battlefield imagine new recruits not having to go through stress and just straight up function as they were trained. Probably removes PTSD or reduce the chances.
- Well, nah - stress is "almost impossible". Which means that it is possible, and with disorders it wouldn't work at all most likely. Without it being 100% every time, I don't think it is worth discarding other items.
  As for functioning as they were trained - the bravery stone would be better I think. Stress is a great motivator, couple that with complete and utter bravery and you have an army that never routes
- Using the cute, magic anti-anxiety gift to get better at fighting wars sounds like the most dystopian thing lol

I would pick the pillow except I would probably form a sleep addiction (again)

Of course the candle, as it will solve climate change.
If it can never burn out, you can divide it infinitively, and create infinite flames powering infinite generators.
Never say always ;D
Also the favourite mug would be an infinite power generator too
