I want a Mixed Reality thing that works the opposite of how I am seeing it done right now... (yiffit.net)

Right now it's augmenting reality with fake shit. Like you see the real world and can put non-real things in it. What I'd like to be able to do is be in a fake world and bring real world objects into that.

Like, say I'm in VRchat just sitting somewhere hanging out it would be cool if I could bring my drink, my food, my vape, etc into the game so I don't have to fumble around looking for them with my hands. I haven't found anything that does this though... :/

It's a neat idea that I've never heard before.

For now you can just bounce into passthru mode for a half second. On oculus you can set it so a double tap on the side of the device toggles passthru mode on and off

I do. Sometimes... I like to turn the boundary off when just sitting somewhere because even if I'm nowhere near the edge, the boundary lines often pop up and mess with my vision. It sucks that passthrough mode only works when the boundary is on. It doesn't even make sense, as if you're in passthrough, you don't need a boundary 🤷🏻‍♂️
