In particular, this VARDAGEN Glass Bowl.
It's almost a quarter inch thick, feels heavy and solid, wonder if anyone has tried. Nothing fancy, just boil and soup kind of thing. I figure it's healthier than stainless steel. Thought?

No, you can't.
You should always assume glass is not safe to use on the stovetop. Essentially none of it is, and while there are a very few exceptions, they'll say so explicitly. (For example this set says stovetop-safe in the description.)
That bowl is nothing special, definitely not stovetop-safe - it'd shatter under the thermal stress. If you look carefully on the packaging, you might even find a warning that's not for use on the stovetop.

Thanks, you made it crystal clear. I know the Vision, just not a big fan of the color. The only other one explicit for cooking costs $200. Since it's made by MoMA, I wasn't sure if it meant to be artwork or cookware.– WhoeverJun 26, 2016 at 2:23

In general, if it doesn't specifically say "stovetop safe", "oven safe", or "broiler safe", it's not safe to use it as anything other than a bowl. Jun 26, 2016 at 4:23

Visions is not glass, from what I recall when they were first marketing it (I have some.) Visions is "transparent ceramic."– EcnerwalJun 26, 2016 at 14:18
