Title: Reminder to keep Beltane inclusive Text:With the holiday coming up I thought it worth reminding everyone not to focus too much on fertility, and God and Goddess roles. Remember the queer witches in your coven, work with them to feel seen and included. An inclusive Beltane is a glorious celebration of diverse human sexuality, and remember even the gods themselves can be queer, I know my Goddess is. Mostly writing this beacuse some mostly wiccan groups can be weirdly cishet, don't think this will be a problem for most of you in this sub but thought some of you might appreciate it.
Title: MiBand, Thankyou to you all for turning me on to this. and what i have learned about the Miband 8 Text:This is really going to be my first time posting here. But i wanted to share my experience with everyone here since it was on here i learned about the miband. i wanted to thank you all for that. Got a miband 7 on amazon after reading all the good things on here. Was a alittle worried about swallowing it at first not going to lie. Been swallowing marbles since i was 8ish so was not to worried about is size since i have swallowed many things since then that same size if not larger than the miband. but still felt alittle sketchy because of the battery and all. But based on others here, it seamed doable and sounded like alot of fun. after 3 days i got of the courage to do it. i was kinda surprised at how easily it went down. for me the feeling of it going down was unusually pleasant since i was expecting it to feel more like one of the 5ml bottles i am used to. it spent 3 days in my stomach, which was making my alittle nervous at first. but i could check in on it with my phone if i held it up to my stomach for the Bluetooth to work. on the 4th day it left my stomach, must have been some time during the work day since i dont want to check on it with others around. Basically made it
Title: Predictive policing Text:I'm not being gangstalked, nor do I know anyone who is, but after watching a documentary on pasco County Pd predictive policing I was wondering if this is what people on here are dealing with. Before watching that video, I thought the notion of being gangstalked was crazy but after seeing what they were doing, I can only imagine. Here is the link if you are wondering what it is This is the institute of justice video on the predictive policing algorithm and how the police harassment gets so bad you move or end up in jail they literally measured weeds with a rulers to write up citations to give you a court date inhopes you missed that court date so they could arrest you and claim a drop in crime https://youtu.be/Fd_YfwoVaEg?si=YP8NxeTfOEivVVL7
Title: JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇨🇳 US government created backdoors at Internet Service Providers (ISP) to spy on its citizens. China then hacked these backdoors and used them to spy on the U.S. - WSJ Text:A cyberattack tied to the Chinese government penetrated the networks of a swath of U.S. broadband providers, potentially accessing information from systems the federal government uses for court-authorized network wiretapping requests. For months or longer, the hackers might have held access to network infrastructure used to cooperate with lawful U.S. requests for communications data, according to people familiar with the matter, which amounts to a major national security risk. The attackers also had access to other tranches of more generic internet traffic, they said. - [**Source**](https://archive.is/0VvPf)
Title: Fired for crying at work Text:My boss said it was bring down team morale. Apparently, there was a clause in the employee handbook which allows an employee to cry 5 times a month. Since I cried 6 I received a formal write up, and at my most recent performance review they sited my formal write up as a reason for them to “pursue other candidates” Now since I can’t file for unemployment I have to fall into credit card debt while I try to replace this job.
Title: How the f do people not know mind reading technology exists already Text:Im sitting here listening to joe rogan as a ti and they keep saying like “imagine if we had mind reading technology” Im sure like many of you know this shit is already happening. Im not entirely sure how much hypnosis is required to do it but what the heck. How does no one know about this? What the fuck
Title: The dissonance Text:I can’t get this interaction out of my head, it was so wild. I was at an outdoor music event on the weekend and a man asked me if I was able to walk at all (yes a little) and why I was in a wheelchair. I explained that I had gotten covid and that it left me with severe neurological and heart issues, that I can only stand and walk for short periods of time, and that I can’t go out without a wheelchair because I get too exhausted to move. He was incredibly sympathetic and said “that is the worst thing I have ever heard” and we talked for a bit about it, and he expressed a lot of sadness for me. I said that it has been challenging but I’m feeling really positive right now, I’m still doing things that I love when I can, and that just seven months ago I was completely bedridden and had to be in a dark room with no sound or sensory input, unable to dress or feed myself. So when I look at that, and think about how now I can dress up and catch some live music and be with my friends, and maybe even stand up and dance for a couple minutes, I feel incredibly lucky since a lot of people with long covid end up bedridden for years. He was shocked to learn all that. Then he pointed at my frie
Title: I found this super cute dress at the ren fair yesterday! Text:Though, I wore this yesterday while out with my boyfriend to get ice cream and these two men sat next to me and made me feel uncomfortable about the dress. I’m not a huge fan of wearing low cut dresses because of the negative attention I get. Like yesterday, my boyfriend got up to get us a pop and the man in front of me was staring at me really intensely and it made me really anxious. He only stopped once my boyfriend got back but still would glance at my chest. I’m not sure how to stop this behavior besides just avoiding short dresses and low cut tops while I’m alone. It sucks!
Title: [Torture Reports: Pets] Seizures, blast overpressure and/or lasering of crotch when thinking of buying dog food, harness, collar, etc. feeding my dogs, getting my dogs' medical record, etc. My crotch lasered while petting my dogs. Text:Sometimes a laser sodomizes me while I pet my dogs or when my dogs lie next to me. The seizures and blast overpressure induce dizziness. [https://www.reddit.com/r/TargetedEnergyWeapons/comments/11qgq3m/wiki\_sound\_blast\_overpressure\_bop/](https://www.reddit.com/r/TargetedEnergyWeapons/comments/11qgq3m/wiki_sound_blast_overpressure_bop/) Dizziness interferes with work. Takes time to recover from dizziness. While walking my dogs, continuous wave lasering of the sole of my right foot or the exterior side of my big toe on my right foot. The laser burns the sole of my foot. The laser makes my foot rigid. Difficult to bend my foot whlle walking. My right foot swells up against the side of my Nikes. The military also lasers my right foot at home. i take off my Nikes and put on house slippers. My toe swells up against the side of the house slippers. I switch to open toe sandals. The military switches to burning the sole of my foot. I cannot sandals while walking my dogs on gravel roads and dirt trails. At least the military ceased lasering my right kidney while walking my dog and shooting my dog's head forcing her to fall down. This is mind control not to walk. Not to have pets
Title: Ugh Text:This experience is genuinely draining. I couldn’t sleep before my shift for more than an hour. I will probably still struggle to sleep at night as my peice of shit roommate constantly makes sure I can’t . I’m constantly treated like a criminal in every public space I enter. Very concerned about the future. Stay safe y’all. Tips would be appreciated.

I also like to kiss them and touch them. Not in a sexual way but theyre actually really pretty. She doesnt mind but i feel like a sick persone because od it. We talked about it and She asked me if i have a scar fetish. Do i? Or am i sick?
Title: Utilitarianism is true but irrelevant now that AI can optimize our hedon intake without any effort on our part. Text:So now we’re free to pursue whatever ethical system we vibe the hardest with, because the prime matter of ethics (pleasure) has been taken care of for us. We can do literally anything so long as robots are maximizing our hedon levels. John Stuart Bentham would surely agree.
Title: Yet another shooting incident caused by gangstalking Andrew Whittenberg Text: This bullshit excuse of a community policing program, criminal informant/spies of America program is causing violence on a scale bigger than 9/11 daily there are mass shootings, shootings, violent outbursts, car crashes and more caused by these criminals who are abusing this reporting system for financial gain and illegally stalking and harassing others under the guise of federal investigations. A majority of the time when on a fusion center watch list or under one of these investigations it is fraudulent and many informants and NGO that are supposed to help exploited children and trafficking victims are themselves engaging in massive fraud incriminating innocent people or enemies knowing they won't get called out or questioned so they can get paid or get back at someone else.

Title: Could someone tell me what fallacy this is? Text:So I was in an argument with a friend today, and he made an argument that kinda makes sense, but I’m not sure. So he had all these “premises”, right? And then from those “premises”, he did what he calls “inferences” to find a “conclusion”. Personally I feel like I’ve been duped at some point. Like clearly he’s using some kind of fallacy, or he’s just moving words around or something. I’ve spent the last few years making sure I know all of the fallacies so I can be good at logic, but I can’t seem to find a name for this one. Could someone help me with this? tl;dr My friend is using weird terms instead of arguing correctly and I think he’s using some kind of fallacy.
Title: Most people at urgent care were masked today Text:I had to go to urgent care for antibiotics for a infected cut. Most people i saw including staff were masked. A few surgical, a couple kn95, and even a few n95. Made me feel a little bit better. A few unmasked people but less than I expected
Title: Any good swallowable vibrators (MiBand, Hexbug, etc.) you'd recommend? And tips on swallowing them Text:Hello! I've been interested for a while in swallowing something that can vibrate, but so far all I've had experience with is marbles and squishies. I've tried to swallow endoscopes in the past, which has failed. I've heard about MiBands and Hexbugs being used, but are there any other options you'd recommend? And what advice would you give for swallowing something that size?
Title: Is it weird that I just wanna chill?! Text:I’m pretty settled into a comfortable frequency and vibe. Yet I would really like to just vibe!! Everyone wants to have some fun in the waterproof sheets but can that be a bonus. Yes we are all beautiful, sexy, with an ass that won’t quit but goodness gracious I just wanna giggle n’ twitch without something inside me. Let’s drink our Gatorade and nibble our lips to some lo-fi’ d tracks with discussions of whatever we were discussing. I don’t get how you can just see this other person and think “Stick it to me chuckles “ without at least cracking a joke so we know we are all here to have fun and stare at polar bear manifesting in the kitchen. Thanks for letting me get this out my hole is tired.
Title: Nice Masking Story Text:Picture this. I'm in the grocery store, buying cat food, wearing my duckbill N95. A petite older lady (first initial S) says, "Excuse me, are you wearing a mask because of covid?". Me: "Yeah." S: "Are cases rising?" Me: "Dunno, I just know that it sucked when I had it." S: "Should I be wearing a mask?" Me: "I can't answer that for you. I just know that high quality masks are a lot more affordable than they used to be, and covid still sucks." At that point, S showed a keen interest in getting some good masks, and we exchanged names. I told her I'm a notary if she ever needs one, and gave her my number.
Title: Remember you are the boss Text:Remember in a hospital or other medical settings (doctor offices, dentists etc) that YOU are the boss. Not the doctor, nurse, administrators etc. Ask them to wear an N95 mask and if they refuse just leave because it’s a red flag 🚩for medical care. If they refuse such a *simple* request they aren’t going to provide you quality care in the first place. It’s one of those things that should’ve been done even before COVID.
Title: Walked into a bagel shop today to get a few muffins. The girl who has a stuffy nose is helping me she then wipes her nose with her fingers then proceeds to grab the muffins same hand barehanded no gloves and puts them in a bag. I lied and said I left my wallet in the car and dipped. Text:People are gross. Seems like society is normalizing being as gross as possible and who can be the grossest while in public. It's a competition! What I see in public. Open coughs. Wiping snotty runny stuffy nose on hand without washing hands afterwards and grabbing whatever for the customer. Open sneezing no covering sneeze into forearm anymore just open sneezing and open coughing. 🙃🙃🙃
Title: Problematic behaviour on this sub Text:Recently I've noticed some problematic things on this sub. A person posted that they wanted to cut deeper and there was only ONE comment that wasn't instructing OP in any way. I called one person out and got a chat request saying "fuck you." Yeah, fuck *me* when *you* were telling that person that they can't cut deeper because of their tool and pressure. I know I'm *awful* for saying that's fucked up. Also wtf is going on with these "cutesy" nicknames for cuts! "Babies"? "Beans"? "BABY BEANS"?! There aren't beans inside your skin, that is **FAT**. Can we please quit using these dumb ass names and can we please not tell others how they can do even more damage to themselves? Is that too much to ask for? Am I the only one who's been seeing instructing and glorifying self harm here recently or am I just crazier than I thought I was? Rant over. Edit: Now the person who sent me the "fuck you" chat said "dumb fuck 😭". How PATHETIC

Title: [Shielding: Thefts] Two months of shielding notes stolen from my living room while I slept. Retaliation for submitting post on emitters are hard wired to electric panel. Text:The military frequently enters my home. I installed a window lock on all windows. I installed three chain door locks: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CBFPBNN7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 But I can only use all three chain door locks while I am inside my home. During the day when I am not there, my home was entered. I had checked that . The military entered during the day. They extended the chain on the chain door locks by linking more chain. After eating dinner, washing dishes and brushing my teeth, I turn off all the circuit breakers, main breaker in electric panel and main breaker on electric pole. Less than a hour after turning off the electricity, I am concussioned on the couch. The military breaks in and turns on the circuit breakers and main breaker in the electric panel. Outdoors, the military turns on the main breaker on the electric pole. After regaining consciousness on August 23, 2024, I inspected the breakers. They had been turned on. I turned them off. Used a flashlight, I started examining the chain lock on the front door. My flashlight was electromagnetic pulsed. The next morning, on August 24, 2024, I went outside. I could remove the
Title: I took some video of my experience as a TI and captured some of the voices. Text:I hope this serves as a grounding rod for future TI's trying to convince people what is happening to them. I no longer have any Tinfoil, silver fabric or ice packs. They were helping with the attacks slightly but I have chosen to submit to some of their demands.

Title: Help me understand? Text:Long post. I have been a registered nurse for over 14 years. I have my masters in nursing and teach for two universities. I have experience working in the emergency department, and the post anesthesia care unit, which is also critical care. During 2021 to 2022 I worked in the emergency department during the worst waves of covid. Delta and Omicron. I’m not gonna lie, I’m fucked up in the head. I’ve never really recovered. I also have significant health anxiety, as well as as obsessive compulsive disorder. Yes, I see a therapist on a regular basis to process the trauma and yes, I take medication. I still mask. I’m mask everywhere. I mask my entire shift at the hospital. I don’t eat at indoor restaurants, I don’t do indoor events. If there is an indoor event, I wear a mask. What baffles me the most, and I can’t accept is that literally ZERO people in healthcare wear masks. I have people that I work with ask me still, why are you wearing a mask? It also feels as if everyone has forgotten what it was like during some of the worst waves of Covid. I have gone so far to ask people why they no longer choose to mask. I have gotten a variety of responses 1. Idon’t care about Covi
Title: Have anyone noticed more influencers/online personalities complaining of long covid symptoms? Text:This is probably anecdotal (and maybe even a little parasocial) but there are quite a few podcasters I listen to that I know don’t mask/don’t know very much about covid, but recently I’ve heard them start bringing up how they’re so fatigued all the time and don’t know why. Have anyone else noticed examples of this recently?
Title: Is anyone else tired of living in this world Text:And how the covid thing was managed? I have to work and I'm trying to get by but I'm finding it so tiring and I'm constantly worrying because I don't want to get sick from co workers that are clearly sick. I've been invited to two gatherings this Christmas and I have just cancelled one because I don't want to put myself into a situation with someone showing up with just a cold. The whole pandemic could have been handled better. Mask wearing promoted, clean indoor air, people caring not to spread illness. Hard to believe we are going into year 6 of this and most people have reverted back to life as if it was 2019. I haven't been away on holidays since 2019 and I don't know if I can ever get on a plane again considering it was the CEO of an airline that wanted isolation dropped and they got what they wanted. I hate the mild narrative that has been pushed with all this. I don't care how mild it is. I don't care if it can feel like a cold. I don't want to get sick. I don't want to get knocked down by a car if I go out tomorrow. I don't expect to arrive into my workplace tomorrow to find it on fire and have to still go in. But somehow spreading illness is just fine and I'm meant t

Title: US’ first human case of bird flu not linked to animals reported in Missouri Text:"A person in Missouri is the United States’ first case of H5 avian influenza without a known exposure to a sick animal, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Friday. “This is the 14th human case of H5 reported in the United States during 2024 and the first case of H5 without a known occupational exposure to sick or infected animals,” the CDC said in a statement. It’s also the first H5 case detected through the country’s national flu surveillance system rather than targeted surveillance of the ongoing bird flu outbreak in animals. The case is under investigation by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services. The person had underlying medical conditions and was hospitalized on August 22. The person tested positive for influenza A, was treated with influenza antiviral medications and is now recovered and at home, according to MDHSS." source: https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/06/health/first-human-case-of-bird-flu-not-linked-to-animals/index.html
Title: Some "Autistic" people are just people who lack confidence and life experience Text:My brother used to fit the bill for autism then he got into shrooms and smoked some ganja and had a moment self realization now he no longer walks and talks like an autist. really fascinating. he told me it made him finally pause his brain and think "why am I the way that I am?" this doesn't go for the severely autistic cause they really have something going on in their brain but the other folks might just need some Fatherly advice and some introspection. Anyway the point is I think this rise of "autism" is really the rise of isolated alienated people.
Title: It should make every American furious with the way FEMA and federal government are handling Helene aftermath. Text:It is Lahaina 2.0 in every aspect. 750 dollars to victims? It should be 7500. If they can afford billions to Israel and Ukraine...they can afford this. Lots of things coming up on Tiktok about people being turned away and arguing with authorities there. FEMA isn't even doing anything. The outpouring of people and generosity is what we need. Not the federal government. They don't want us to be self sustaining. They want us to be babies. To hold our hands out. They say it's to keep people from getting in the way...way of what? Slow ass response by FEMA? Come the fuck on. Not to mention....at the end of all of it a land grab will take place and the mining that Piedmont has been after will be easy crumbs for the taking. I hate it here.

I have to get bloodwork done every few months because of the medication I’m on. I take Biologics, which make it very dangerous for me to catch Covid (it would be a 3rd time). I try to wear my mask most places. Above is what the phlebotomist asked me as she was drawing my blood (maskless of course). In my head I was fuming because how do you work at a rheumatologist office and not know we’re all high risk, but I was polite hahaha and was like “the medicine I’m on makes it more dangerous for me to get sick” lol wtf!

Title: If masking becomes more widely banned, what protections exist for disabled people? Text:I want to preface this by asking that we try to keep the conversation as factual as possible without panicking/focus on what protections there might be for people who mask rather than how scary this is...I am already really scared and honestly am trying my best to stay calm. I want to be informed but am trying not to spiral. (Encouragement/any kind of solidarity is more than welcome. Again, I just want to avoid spiraling.) As lot of places (universities specifically) have cracked down on masking because of protests, I am worried about this becoming more widespread. I work mostly from home, but have to work in person sometimes and attend public meetings outside the office. I would struggle to do my job fully remote. I also am disabled; I was disabled prior to COVID and now am being evaluated for POTS from COVID. What kind of protections, if any, does a disabled person have in terms of masking? If I am unable to mask, I will not be able to live my life at all. I am already incredibly isolated, and I am really scared about what things could be like if masks become more widely banned. I am also incredibly scared of losing my job because of being unable to attend public meetings. Not b
Title: Nerosity is a scam, need an advice Text:Heyo, I bought a Neurosity crown in may, and it turned out that my head is too big for it and signals do not get recorded properly. I spent a week trying to train it but the signal would just disappear randomly. I decided to return the item. At first, Neurosity wouldn’t reply so I filed a dispute through affirm that they won’t take a return. This did affect them and this dude AJ sent me a shipping label. I sent everything and the item arrived a month ago, since then, I tried contacting Neurosity from different emails and different methods. But they have been ignoring me. Now normally I would go to my bank and give them the evidence that the merchant got the item back but never issued a refund, so they would most likely support me, it's a good bank. but since i was making payments to Affirm, it seems like charging back would trigger affirm and they will screw up my credit score for that. Anyone who also got scammed by neurosity, or they just hating on me in particular because im Asian? what would you suggest doing in this situation? PS: tried contacting affirm, they do not allow second disputes on same purchase, told me to f* off basically
Title: Why did prolific poster AstralRocker delete his account? Text:I called him a bad actor a few days ago because his posts seemed manufactured and not organic like he was an agent. I hope I didn't hurt his feelings if I wrong. I don't like the thought of that I might have hurt someone's feelings. Anyone know what happened to him and why he deleted his account? Sorry AstralRocker. There seems to be a lot of strange accounts on Reddit, like people are intentionally putting out misinformation, and the ones who put out good info seem to always vanish. Candleman? Vanished? Laura? Vanished? Nick Hinton? Kinda vanished. AstralRocker? Vanished. Mmm. We need more people sticking around.

Title: It feels like there's a new wave of denial Text:The last 6 months it has felt like there's a new wave of denial and/or that everyone who was even semi understanding is no longer understanding. The people in my life who were previously understanding have now all switched to "are you going to live like this forever?" "you can't expect people to still be masking." "You have to live your life." The amount of people I know who are seriously messed up by COVID, or have gotten "mysteriously" very sick since they've gotten COVID is shockingly large. My household is single income, we don't want to risk the person providing getting sick. One of us is very high risk for bad complications and long COVID and we don't want to risk it. As other people's precautions have gotten less, ours have had to get more strict. My household is now the most isolated it's been since COVID started because there is no longer any protections in place. I think a lot of people have survivor bias because they're not attributing all of their sudden onset health issues to COVID. Has anyone else seen this new, large wave of denial and push back? We're now suddenly having to drop a lot of people from our lives that used to be understanding and it's been a serious

Title: Jay-Z takes a major loss as a federal judge denies his attempt to dismiss a lawsuit filed by a woman accusing him and Diddy of raping her after the MTV Music Awards when she was just 13 years old. Text:[**CNN**](https://archive.is/DxhFt) - [Jay-Z’s](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay-Z) efforts to dismiss a case accusing him of raping a then-13-year-old girl in 2000 have been denied by a judge, who also granted the “Jane Doe” accuser the ability to proceed anonymously, despite efforts from the rap mogul’s legal team to have her reveal her identity publicly. Jay-Z, whose given name is Shawn Carter, has vigorously [denied](https://archive.is/kIHMg) the accusations. In an order filed on Thursday, [Judge Analisa Torres](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analisa_Torres) penned a scathing decision, condemning Carter’s lawyer’s aggressive tactics in moving to dismiss the case. “Carter’s lawyer’s relentless filing of combative motions containing inflammatory language and ad hominem attacks is inappropriate, a waste of judicial resources, and a tactic unlikely to benefit his client,” the order read. “The Court will not fast-track the judicial process merely because counsel demands it.” Earlier this month, Doe filed an amended lawsuit that was initially filed in October, accusing [Sean “Diddy” Combs](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Combs) and an anonymous celebrity of raping her af

Title: Clearing up misconceptions about the planet Saturn. The Romans were right. Text:This is an excerpt from the book "Ares Le Mandat" in chapter 45, which was written back in 2019 and laid out its plan for inducing faith in Mars influence and paving the way for one world government *The planet Saturn has long been associated with the actual Satan. In terms of Satan being an adversary, especially with regards to the contents written in this book about Mars, one can say that the planet Saturn is not symbolic of Satan himself. Satan as an adversarial entity would align more with Mars. Traditional mythology refers to Saturn as the god of agriculture, abundance, and wealth. In ancient Rome, Saturn was worshiped at a temple built in his honor and also celebrated at a festival called Saturnalia which was held from December 17th to December 23th. Many historians have linked this festival to the origins of the Christmas celebrations in Christianity. Saturn, however, never held the best reputation in Rome due to fact that Saturn's mythological backdrop describes how he ate his own children to prevent them from overthrowing him from his high position. However, times of peace and prosperity in Rome is credited to the Saturnalia festival and an increased veneration of the god

Title: Are you sure MSNBC? Text:Two headline-grabbing events took place Friday in the race for president. Republican Donald Trump sat down for a three-hour interview with popular podcast host Joe Rogan. And Vice President Kamala Harris held the largest event of her campaign, a massive rally in Houston featuring hometown hero Beyoncé and attended by an estimated 30,000 people. If the goals of these two events were simply to generate media coverage, then it was just about a tie. But each campaign was seeking to increase vote turnout in this close election. Given those goals, the Harris-Beyoncé rally will likely go down as a bigger winner than the Trump-Rogan interview. — [**MSNBC**](https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opinion/kamala-harris-beyonce-donald-trump-joe-rogan-rcna176699) — [**Archive**](https://archive.is/qL31Y) [**Youtube**](https://youtu.be/hBMoPUAeLnY?si=wY7qb0n2kdGTa-ts) — 43.5M [**Joe Rogan’s X**](https://x.com/joerogan/status/1851117181964046431?s=46&t=lyUkewqrOx_z4p8M2W3EIQ) — 20M [**Elon’s X**](https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1851122935165304847?s=46&t=lyUkewqrOx_z4p8M2W3EIQ) — 43M This doesn’t include even one download on Spotify, Apple, or any other podcast platform.
Title: All I see are illusions spoken to me Text:Well impregnate my backdoor womb with a combine harvester and say I caused the agricultural revolution, I just proved to myself that this is all absolutely, definitely a simulation and by Eris' pantleg tentpole is God dicking my brain with a profound dickery! See, last night I realized a few things about what my God-given n state-sponsored mission as a messiah candidate really entails (can you say excited?), and with that, I was jamming out in the kitchen in silence when I noticed that there was a fork misplaced over to the side. I wondered why Byoomth (my boyfriend) put it there, and thought to move it with the other two forks by the sink. Well, as I placed the lone fork with its siblings, a fourth fork magickally appeared with the sound effect of metal rubbing against metal chiming out! Obviously, I thought maybe I was confused. Was that fork always there? Had I misviewed reality? If so, why did the fork make a noise like it did? This got me thinking; could that incident with my bread being tampered with really be caused by God rendering this quantum simulation instead of by the deterministic causality that suggested a mouse had to literally break into the fridge to eat my brea

Title: Yall said cutting to the fat layer wasn't worth it. You were right. Text:I keep reading post after post saying that cutting to fat is horrible, it isn't worth it, it ruins your life, etc. People said it like an absolute rule, so I never believed them. But they were so, so right :( They always say that it will never feel like enough anymore, and yup. It felt unrealistic how quickly everything immediately stopped hurting once I cut to fat, and now even deep styro doesn't feel good anymore, it hurts as much as scratching an itch too hard used to. It never hurts enough, but it hurts like heck when it's healing, and even after it scarred over. I know many of you have heard this hundreds of times, but *I promise you* it isn't worth it to cut deep. Stay safe and give yourself hugs for me <3
Title: Just Stop Oil spray Stonehenge with orange paint... Text:Apologies if this is controversial, but I need to get this off my chest and don't know where else to turn :( I was raised Pagan in the UK, and my childhood involved celebrations and rituals during Pagan holidays (solstice, Samhain, etc). I don't consider myself a fully-practicing Pagan now as an adult, but mostly because of laziness rather than lack of belief in that worldview 😂 I've been involved in the climate movement for the last 2.5 years, and was actually sent to prison briefly with JSO in 2022 for blockading an oil refinery. I only mention this to say that I'm not AT ALL unsympathetic to the cause, and would take disruptive action again if the situation arose. I still have many friends in JSO, but this recent action on Stonehenge really upset and disheartened me. Stonehenge is such an important place for druids, pagans, and witches in the UK (as I'm sure I don't need to say here haha!). I feel like targeting our religious site one day before one of the biggest celebrations of the year is just... I mean, I don't have the words for it. It feels like the equivalent of targeting the largest mosque in the country a day before Eid. You just wouldn't do it! There is also SUCH

Does anyone have any suggestions for things to swallow that will are heavy enough that I’ll feel it, hard enough that I’ll hear it, but will eventually digest as normal so I don’t have to deal with the aftermath? I was thinking some kind of hard candy. Would jaw breakers be any good?

No they aren’t as smart as me they are just equally as bitter at the world for being blessed with the curse of intelligence. I met a girl at a speed dating Mensa event. I told her my iq and she asked if she could come over. I was nervous but I figured she probably wanted to see the illegal Lego building techniques I use in the privacy of my own home. She went home later that night after she lingered around for what seemed like hours. She must be trying to steal all the knowledge in my house. Why is it so hard to have an iq of 200. I don’t expect anyone here to know because I’m the smartest person in the world.
Title: Everyone* is wrong, all the time. Text:The truth value of any given statement can either be true or false. Since 'false' is just the state of not being true, the number of false statements outnumbers the number of true statements since a true statement can only ever be one true. At the same time, it can be false in infinitely unique ways. False statements are infinitely more substantial than true statements. Therefore the odds of anything or anyone\* making a true statement is infinitely small, and consequently the smallest non-zero% possible. Therefore: You're all wrong and stupid and dumb and wrong, especially Jonah fuck you Jonah ﹡ᵉˣᶜᵉᵖᵗ ᶠᵒʳ ᵃˡˡ ᵐʸ ˢᵗᵃᵗᵉᵐᵉⁿᵗˢ ᵇᵉᶜᵃᵘˢᵉ ᵃᶜᵗᵘᵃˡˡʸ ⁱ ᵃᵐ ᵗʰᵃᵗ ⁿᵒⁿ⁻ᶻᵉʳᵒ﹪. ʸᵒᵘ'ʳᵉ ʷᵉˡᶜᵒᵐᵉ ᵇʸ ᵗʰᵉ ʷᵃʸ

There’s definitely something going on down around Norfolk. I’m sure they have other “bases” too. The forces associated with the black cube is not good, very very bad actually. Demonic/satanic/whatever you want to call it. US military intelligence had the technology, at least they did at one point , imo. Maybe not anymore. Maybe they tried to reverse engineer it (I’d guess they failed but I couldn’t say).

Title: Feeling disconnected from people at a fundamental level Text:I feel like my world view is shifting. I knew before that people can be self-centred or ignorant. But I always assumed it's "not that bad", that we all make mistakes but in the end do care about each other. Now many of us have collected evidence to the contrary over the last years - being abandoned by friends, gaslit by doctors etc. Reading how people with Long Covid are let down by their friends/family as well as the medical community disturbs me deeply. These experiences seem to be pervasive; they are not caused by a few bad guys but rather reflect the mindset of the majority. It's like I can immediately, viscerally see how thin our social connections are, how little we can rely on others; like I see through something I used to trust. This of course makes me feel unsafe; but what is worse is that it makes me feel like I fundamentally don't belong. The carelessness around me is just entirely alien to me; I cannot understand it. I could never in the world imagine abandoning a friend because they wear a mask, not calling when I know someone is sick or sad, or walking around in public unmasked with an illness that I know full well can cause lasting damage. I just cannot grasp this.
Title: Does anyone feel like their concept of their aging has changed? Text:I’m not kidding or being glib in asking this. But I’ve realized with how much I’ve pulled back from “normal” life for going on five years now, that I don’t feel like things have changed over time in the way they did before the pandemic, when I was able to have regular social interactions and a somewhat normal life. I dread a lot of social interactions now, with the fear of infection, and that’s just been the new normal for years. But there are times where it feels like it’s been a lot more than the number of years it’s actually been. And then there are times when I feel like it hasn’t been that long at all, because I’m basically still doing the things I was in 2021 or 2022, while continuing to watch people act like nothing’s wrong anymore.

Title: Gnosticism is just Antinatalism with esoteric tendencies. Text:No, I’m not James Lindsay because unlike James Lindsay *I* don’t think that Gnosticism necessarily turns you gay, and gives you an interest in queer theory. Now that we got that out of the way, allow me to paint a picture. Let’s say, hypothetically, for the sake of the argument, that you think the material universe is a trap or some kind of mistake. If you think this is the case, then why on earth would you choose to reproduce? Are you just living some sort of sick Demiurge fantasy? **How vile!** The only western esotericism that you can ethically reproduce under is clearly neo-platonism. (I’m still iffy on Wicca) You may be curious about me. Ha, well, let me tell ya a little bit about myself. You might be wondering… is OP a gnostic? Is OP an anti-natalist? Is OP a Neoplatonist? Is OP my biological father? I’ll just go ahead and do away with all of the doubt once and for all; **stop asking questions that you don’t want the answers to**. Philosophy isn’t about asking difficult questions, fools. Philosophy is about developing axioms that are completely unquestionable. Have a wonderful day!
Title: [Torture Reports] Part 5: Military is intentionally attempting to cause an interstate accident on I-95. Twice forcing me off the interstate. Text:Upon departing Brevard County, FL on Monday, December 2, 2024, very strong pulsing on the soft spot on top of my head. Crown is tender to the touch. Pulsing is causing headache and mental and physical fatigue. Getting off the interstate is not a rest because torture is not reduced. In Jacksonville, I got off the freeway. To get back on the freeway, I turned left and hit a lane divider median. After waking up this morning, pressure on top of my head and headache. I complained the pressure could cause an interstate accident as I am departing today, Monday, December 2, 2024, for the radio quiet zone. The military reduced the pressure. But the strong pulsing is worse. I put on a wet cashmere beanie. Also weak from two weeks of malnutrition and only eating a snack due to very strong continuous wave pressure on my navel. Pressure interferes with digestion and belly breathing. Pressure on lungs. Out of breath just sitting. Censorship by interfering with reddit. Hacking my phone, charger and wall outlet in storage unit. Military turns on my phone after I turn it off. They rapidly deplete its new battery by emitting strong radiofrequency (SAR) to attack me.

But because I'm from the US, in a state where most people never took it seriously to begin with, minimizer language has found its way into my vocabulary. I say things like "during the pandemic" and "covid restrictions" and recently has my mind blown by someone saying "We're in year 4 of an ongoing pandemic" and I saw someone reword "restrictions" to "protections". What are some other common minimizer phrases that you've seen pushed back against or ways that you push back, yourself?

"A protester ties herself to the net during a men's singles semifinal match between Marin Cilic of Croatia and Casper Ruud of Norway at the 2022 French Open at Roland Garros June 3, 2022, in Paris." This girl was supposedly just protesting something about the enviroment. But I remember seeing this on the news back in 2022 and immidiately thinking, this is some sort of illuminati "in your face" type of annoucement. The type they make it obvious but no one takes it seriously. I thought this because 1. They didnt tackle this girl or anything, security just casully waited for her to finish posing for the cameras. 2. It was all over the main stream news. They dont usually give sports intruders any screen time or attention. So why show this girl posing with this criptic message in multiple news networks. From that date June, 3 2022.. 1028 ends in March 27, 2025. Idk dudes, this thing has been stuck in my head since I saw it in 2022.. And March 2025 sounds about the right time for that big thing "we all know is coming but just dont know what it is" to happen.
Title: JUST MET AN OLD FRIEND FROM YEARS AGO AND THEY MASK OMG Text:I just got back home and was too excited to wait to post this lol It's been like, 9 or 10 years since I last spoke to this person? Never left on bad terms, but we weren't the closest, I was going through a rough time for a super long time, and we eventually grew apart cuz we were never in the same class since. Fast forward to today, they recognized my name and face and we immediately hit it off! And the best part? THE POST TITLE ALREADY SPOILED IT BUT THEY MASK!!! FINALLY SOMEONE MY AGE WHO'S COOL!!! I forgot to ask for their number lol but they work somewhere I go often so I'm guaranteed to see them again. God I am so so happy, I was exhausted seeing everyone I could talk to just never take precautions except for one other person I rarely see. I just hope they do it regularly, but I'll worry about that later. Just the fact that they'll do it at all is amazing to me. Okay I just wanted to share some COVID cautious joy. :)

It was outside on a field or else I wouldn’t have gone at all if it was indoors. I only unmasked away from others who weren’t my friends or family and my mom was frustrated with me and didn’t want me wearing a mask in the photos she/friends/family took (but I’m masked on stage/in the audience/in all the professional photos taken of me). I did my best! Still had a great time! I have cerebral palsy and use a power wheelchair. I also have scoliosis, ADHD, hyperacusis, recently diagnosed autism, PTSD, some chronic illnesses, and more. I have been vigilantly masking since the start of the ongoing pandemic and in 2022, I upgraded from KN95 earloops to head strap N95s around the time my mom got COVID in 2022 (which I PCR and RAT tested negative for). To my knowledge, I haven’t had COVID yet and was only sick once with a cold in September 2023 (RAT tested negative multiple times). I’m just trying really hard not to get it. I had a really scary experience with infectious disease a year or two before COVID where my scoliosis rods got infected with bacteria and I underwent multiple surgeries to

Title: Anybody else in a repeating cyclical state of shock about how bad it’s all gotten? Text:Not trying to stoke unnecessary negativity here, but definitely needing to vent as I find myself waking up every day in a Groundhog-Day-esque fashion and it’s really making me feel — well, negative. It all feels like a looping reality that’s steadily deteriorating. It’s like getting hit in the face with a bucket of ice water each time it dawns on me that this is simply just how bad things are now. And with the incoming fascist regime, it’s probably about to get even worse. I’ve lost all faith in human beings at this juncture. When faced with a collective test of their moral quality and intelligence, they folded like laundry, and I’ll never forget it. Now my family has been ravaged by Long Covid of the intensely life-ruining variety and I realize that’s not everyone’s experience here, but I feel like there must be many others continually finding themselves flabbergasted by the experience of waking up each morning into another placid nightmare of banal dystopia and isolation. My dreams and career aspirations and plans for my future have all vanished into thin air, and spending yet another holiday season alone while the rest of the world cosplays 2019 harder than ever before has defi
Title: First time swallowing marbles, what's a good amount to start with? Text:Hey there, I've been lurking on this subreddit for a while now and I have been meaning to try this for myself but I've been putting it off as I haven't had time, and now I'm ready to try it. Can anyone who is at least somewhat experienced with swallowing marbles tell me what a good amount to start with would be? I know it depends on the person as well but I just want a number to go off of so I don't accidentally overdo it for my first attempt. I have about 72 marbles that are a bit smaller than standard size here with me. I am so looking forward to this!
Title: Mon entourage et leurs fausses croyances Text:Salut, j'ai 19 ans, j'ai conscience de ne pas avoir la science infuse, je me remets souvent en question. Le problème que je vous expose aujourd'hui sont les fausses croyances de mes proches concernant politique, santé... Exemple : j'ai eu le droit aux phrases "je ne vais pas prendre cette augmentation parce que sinon je vais changer de tranche d'imposition et je vais gagner moins d'argent", "il y en a marre des assistés"... j'ai beau expliqué que non l'impôt sur le revenu est progressif et non ce n'est pas à cause des "assistés" que les salaires n'augmente pas, les conditions de travail se détériore, qui eux sont en bas de l'échelle social mais à cause des gens qui se gavent sur notre dos. Je précise que je suis issue de la campagne mon entourage également. J'ai longtemps pensé comme eux notamment sur l'aspect politique mais heureusement internet existe pour cela. J'ai conscience que moi aussi je suis stupide, je ne sais pas comment réagir quoi faire... Devrai-je me taire ?
Title: please take extreme caution right now — do not falter in your precautions, do not take unnecessary risks. Text:i apologize for the long post, but i hope it might help someone. i just tested positive for covid. lines on both tests (about 36 hours apart) have been very faint, but they are there. i already have long covid from my last known infection (second infection, nov 2022). i wear an n95 in all public spaces and around everyone i come into contact with. i mask outside, as well, even on walks with few/no people around. the one exception i make is in my car, where i often roll the windows down while driving, as there is typically enough airflow for it to be extremely low-risk. however, i live with very unsafe people. i generally avoid them, but a family member has recently moved back in who has a dog, and i’ve been spending more time in common areas (masked in an n95 100% of the time) to play with the dogs. of course, this means i’ve also been talking to family a bit more than i usually do, given that i usually avoid them due to the severe dissonance in our realities. the most time i’ve spent with them in common areas on any given day is probably no more than 1 hour, so still very little interaction, as that extent of interaction has probably only happened once or twice. it is possib
Title: i hate the term cat scratches so much Text: it pisses me off to gods end. It makes me feel so fucking invalid it's insane. It makes me feel like i'm not miserable enough to cut deeper. i used to, i used to cut so much deeper but its reduced to just "cat scratches" and it makes me so mad and only encourages me to cut deeper
Title: How much do local gangstalkers really know about you? Text:I think the local stalkers who cross my path on a daily basis have no idea who I am or what I said to get me on their stalker list. I think they just have an AI summary of when I will likely enter and exit my house so they can walk their dogs along my path. Half of what I say online would be have knowledge that exceeds the material they are given in their Freemason clubs. When there is a confrontation against me, I think they need to do a special information request to their higher ups to figure out if I actually said anything currently that justifies their bullshit. What do you think your local stalkers know about you?
Title: "You look like a retired chopping board." Text:"deserved" "Attention seeker" "Victim card" "Try vital next time, like the back of your knees or neck" "Built like a cutting board in more than one way🤡" These were just a few comments I saw on an ig post of a girl showing her scars. Seeing these types of comments actually breaks my heart. Knowing I've done the same thing to my body, now I'm scared of being seen or showing it to people. Some of these people think it's just for mere attention and that you can actually just don't do it, as simple as that but we self harmers know its deeper than that. So much deeper, some of us do it because it can distract us from pain, or we find comfort in hurting ourselves even knowing the full consequences and aftermath of cutting. These same people wonder it's so stupid as to why some people hurt themselves and actually be the reason why. I hope there comes a day were we're not gonna hide these scars anymore and accept ourselves more without the fear of judgement, regret and guilt.
Title: Tonight’s results make me wonder if in fact the 2020 election was stolen Text:Pretty much a bloodbath for the Democrats. Really makes me wonder - Trump was popular enough to win in 2016, suddenly became unpopular and lost, and is since again popular enough to win in a landslide…just doesn’t make much sense to me.
