Title: Traveling in Berlín and haven’t seen a single person with a mask!
Text:I am in Berlín for a few days and am surprised that no one masks at all. I live in California, so even though most people are unmasked there I usually see several others with masks throughout the day. I am stubborn and refuse to conform to anti-masking pressure. I prefer to be an anomaly than get sick. It is disappointing, though.

EDIT:  Reading these comments really makes me appreciate this smart community of people who understand the importance of masking and can resist the very strong gaslighting and peer pressure all around us.


Title: Masking when no one else is
Text:My partner and I have been making more of an effort to see friends in a way that feels safe. Outdoor dining, masked indoor hangouts, etc. We took a big step up and decided to go to our friends' indoor potluck masked and would eat on the back patio if the aranet showed too high a CO2 reading. The invite asked everyone to test for covid and they planned on keeping windows open for extra air circulation and also ran a high-quality hepa fan. No one else had a mask or was planning to wear one, as the point of the event was to eat together which is hard to do while masked.

Socializing overall was really nice but we did end up eating outside in the dark and cold by ourselves, with some folks occasionally coming out and chatting a respectful distance away. We are very close to the hosts and I think everyone else knew there would be covid cautious people there, and we were never made to feel different in any way except the eating arrangements, which was actually just a small part of the evening. It also helped that we had each other.

But none of this is what broke me. One sweet person that we met for the first time came outside and thanked us for masking. They are severely immunocompromis


Title: Nice interaction with the food delivery guy
Text:I’ve had pots for years, and now me/cfs from my one covid infection. I’m in a bad flare up now and had to get food delivered since my parents are gone on holidays.

I had my mask on when I answered the door I could see he kind of hesitated and said something along the lines of “are you okay?” and I said I was fine just that I’ve an immune issue and that he could come in (much easier than trying to explain what’s actually wrong) and he said “oh no I was wondering if I’m a danger to you” which wasn’t what I was expecting but I thought was very nice.

I could tell he was then avoiding being inside my house as much as possible too, which I also appreciated.

People in my town rarely wear masks now, so I’m glad at least that this reaction was a positive one rather than negative.


Title: Are 'friends' even my friends anymore?
Text:My 'friend' has just sent me a photo of a place she's at right now with her mate. That she wants to take me when I come to visit.

It's indoors.

I have repeatedly told her I won't be visiting, and can't go indoors to eat/dine because of Covid safety.

She has had Covid in her house THREE TIMES this year.

Ever feel like your friends aren't really your friends anymore?

That they just want to gaslight and dismiss you for their own comfort and peace of mind, whilst you feel increasingly abandoned and ignored?

Imagine ignoring your disabled friend's boundaries and pretending their access needs don't exist....but doing it in this overly generous way, with smiley face emojis.

I love the bones of this human, but I honestly feel like I'm just fucking DONE.

Stay strong, Critters. Keep masking. You're not alone. x


Title: P.S.A. THE FEDS WANT US GAY
Text:Yeah you heard it right listen theres gonna be those who read this and like me smoke and dont desire any dick. Or perhaps you do but you wanted dick sober. Wanting penis near you, in you, beside you etc. Is fine thats not my point.

The feds cant stop the influx of Mamp. But they easily can and do lead psyops against online communities of drug users its well documented. The main facets they always aim for are.
1. Distrortion of what the drug actually looks and feels like (niso conspiracy) to confuse and make the user angry
2. To say it used to be so much better instilling a placebo effect as well as disauding new users
3. Lol fags. They just pretend stuff makes you gay when its cool. Now listen you would think theyd have stopped with the world becoming more politically correct? No they still think its reslly funny to turn people gay and they always have.

Anyone in here disagreeing with the ides that the federal goverment is actively masquerading as users in this very forum and talking about cross dressing and sitting on dildos just to make it look weird when some regular people like you and I. Im talking to those real people here now okay- just to mske it look weird when we wa

Title: To All Witches Going to Vote Today
Text:Who you vote for is COMPLETELY private. Your parents/husband/wife/boss/whoever is NOT allowed to be in the voting booth with you (and if they are that’s VERY illegal and needs to be reported). There absolutely no way that anybody can know who you voted for unless you tell them. Even if they were to plug your name and birthday into the tracker online all it would say is that you voted in the 2024 election or that you didn’t. There is NOTHING about candidates selected. I even tested it on myself as I voted via mail early. It just says that a ballot for me was received and the date it was received. That’s it. I PROMISE there as absolutely nothing that would indicate who you voted for despite what your folks/spouse/whoever may have told you.

Vote for who you think is the best choice. Lie if you have to when people ask you if you feel like you’re not safe. There’s no way they would know otherwise unless you tell them and there’s no way they can verify. Say you did a write in for Mickey Mouse if you have to. They won’t know.

This election is crucial. Get out and vote your conscience and know that you’re safe in doing so.


Title: Would today be a good day for a freezer spell against Trump and Project 2025?
Text:So, today is the first day of the waning moon. I was thinking of doing a freezer spell by writing Trump and Project 2025 (maybe also Trump supporters and GOP) on a piece of paper, sticking it into my Yoghurt drink bottle, drown it in water and freeze it.

What do you think? Is today a good day? Should I write those on the paper? Any other tips?

(Am new to witch craft. Just doing my part. I also asked Jupiter yesterday during my GME squeeze ritual to make Kamala Harris the next president of the United States. I think full moon was a good time to ask.)

Edit: someone mentioned separating the Trump and Project 2025 spells. I just had an idea. I'd put the Trump spell in a dark Yoghurt bottle to make people stop paying him attention and the Project 2025 spell in a transparent water bottle and draw a bunch of eyes on the outside to make more people pay attention to it 👀

Edit 2: I did the spell and wrote instructions as to how I did it in case anyone wants to a freezer spell too https://www.reddit.com/r/WitchesVsPatriarchy/s/nU4ydLK6Qc

Also, if you want to do a spell for the election but don't like baneful Magick, try the Blue Wave Spell that many people used in 2018 to win the house a

Title: Update on lone masking at a wedding
Text:I just wanted to say how much it meant to me to feel the outpouring of support from you guys on that last post. I knew I’d be able to ask for that mental and emotional boost on here and you all absolutely came through! Thank you sososo much!!😷🫶

I know this isn’t all that interesting but some people were sweet and asked to hear how things went so here we go.

Firstly- it’s so fascinating (sad, really) how covid still comes up in conversation (duh, we’re still in the thick of it! It’s very relevant!) but everyone else is referring to the pandemic in the past tense. I overheard one guest saying they came from being with someone ill in the hospital. She complained about being “forced” to wear a mask the whole time there. Yeah.. a lot to unpack there.
When I spoke to someone else (A MED STUDENT!!!) about dealing with a covid exposure fiasco that happened at work (I actually posted about that before if you want to go back and hear those details, it was wild) he replied essentially saying it’s so strange how covid is still affecting and interfering with peoples lives. Like… yeah it’s almost like the pandemic never ended! Which is what I said. To no response of course. Oh well.
And last


Title: Partner has had enough of my caution
Text:Edit: She's sorry, she was scared and got angry and felt guilty because, after all our caution, it was her family who brought it into our home despite knowing there was a high risk person here.

Thanks to everyone who showed support, love and validation.

On the down side, I just tested positive, so wish me luck.

Thanks all.

------------

I’m covid cautious. I am immune-compromised. My partner just got covid and is isolating but with a lot of very clear reluctance. She doesn’t want to wear a mask in common space, she regularly remove it in front of me, and is making it very clear that she thinks I am over-reacting. I am taking good care of her – I’m just wearing a mask while doing it. Today, I overheard her talking with her best friend about me and it is clear that she feels angry with me for being so cautious. It feels like it’s over the top, but I feel so sad to know this, it’s really undermined my sense of trust. Neither of us has had covid before and I am still testing negative.

Here's why I’m cautious: I am immune compromised and have asthma and a long history of chest infections, pneumonia etc. I know what it’s like when you can’t breathe. And I know what it’s lik

Title: Gay meth
Text:Alright so based on the last post, I might be gay for sucking cock and taking one up the ass (a pretty large one). Sure we could go back and forth all day and argue over trivial labels, but I realized something.

Meth is gay.

If you have ever ingested this drug, consider yourself gang banged by god himself.

You have single handedly committed the most gay act of your life by raising that pipe to your lips. And for all of those claiming you’re not gay, fine, we’ll let you live in your fantasy. Just know that you will become progressively gayer with each pipe you load. That thick cloud of metaphorical cum enters your body like it pays rent.

Title: MAGA In-Fighting Reaches New Heights As Leopards Eat Their Own Faces, Prompting Official Statement: ‘This Is Fine’
Text:The MAGA movement has devolved into such chaotic in-fighting that leopards from the metaphorical “Leopards Eating People’s Faces Party” have turned on their own. Once-united allies are now accusing each other of being secret RINOs, globalists, or, worst of all, fans of electric vehicles.

The frenzy began when key MAGA figures clashed over loyalty to Elon Musk after he called some of them “contemptible fools.” This prompted accusations, finger-pointing, and the sudden release of a conspiracy theory that the leopards were a secret plot by George Soros. By nightfall, leopards were reportedly seen gnawing on the faces of prominent influencers, including a Dogecoin-themed activist and several mid-tier Truth Social accounts.

Despite the carnage, MAGA leadership released a statement: “The movement remains strong, and the leopards eating faces proves the strength of our grassroots principles.” Critics on the left pointed out the irony, while the remaining MAGA faithful cheered: “At least they’re eating our faces first!”

Are we just in this denial stage right now? Will society ever move out of this denial? I know it's hard to predict the future. I'm just really frustrated that hardly anyone cares anymore.


Title: "EEG Recommendations for Beginners: Emotiv Flex 2 or Alternatives?
Text:Hi everyone,
I’m a beginner looking to purchase an EEG and could use some advice. The Emotiv Flex 2 seems to fit what I’m looking for in terms of specs, but I’m hesitant due to concerns about data accessibility. I’d like to use the data to train AI models, and I’m unclear if the Pro Plan actually grants access to both raw and processed data. I’m willing to pay for the Pro Plan if it does, but their documentation hasn’t made this clear.

I’ve also considered OpenBCI, but it seems a bit too complex for a beginner like me. Does anyone have experience with either of these systems or suggestions for something beginner-friendly that offers good data access?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Title: [Modding] Mods needed. I have less time for Reddit as my two laptops are bricked. This increased time using library computers. I became more sensitive to fluorescent light at libraries.
Text:Several months ago, my laptop screen has hacked. Pitch black. BIOS was hacked. I could not boot to a linux flashdrive.  I purchased a replacement laptop. My replacement laptop and an older laptop were hacked. They repeatedly dismounted my removable media (flashdrive and memory card readers.) Last month, my two laptops were bricked. They cannot mount removable media.  I was working off line at home on my laptops. I do not have internet at home. At libraries, I research online to complete the files I was working at home. I print and scan at the library.

Going to the library was a full time job. Fluorescent light emits blue and UV light. The amber mirror prescription glasses cannot block UV. Wearing blue and UV blocking fit over glasses to block the fluorescent light made me crave to be outdoors in the sunshine. The radio quiet zone is primarily cloudy year round.

Since last year, I have had other work to do that took time away from Reddit.

There is a  lot of modding to do in this sub. Review submissions by new subscribers in the spam filter.  Update the wikis and the wiki index, etc.

Last year, the military hacked the Green Bank, WV library's antispyware. They blocked reddit.com

Title: 1d20 acid damage
Text:My encouraging friend and I like DnD and of course I’ve got a few sets of dice. Hoarding dice is nothing new for me so when they suggested trying to do a big marble and I didn’t have a big marble I suggested trying a d20 instead. They liked the idea so I decided to try it. There was one problem, I’ve got a few and I couldn’t decide which one to try. I let my friend choose and they picked a nice purple one.

It needed a lot of water to help it down and it was a fun struggle to force it down but eventually I managed to swallow it and got the nice feeling of it slowly being moved deeper down my throat. No matter how much I tried to send it all the way down there was no way to speed it up. I just had to enjoy the feeling of it slowly being pushed down my throat, something I enjoyed very much. And once it was all the way down I felt it literally pop into my belly, a great feeling. It was definitely the hardest thing I’ve been able to swallow

Strangely enough it was more noticeable in my belly than the Mi Band, I guess that’s because it’s got sides so whenever my stomach clenched the dull points pressed out against it.

This dragon is definitely adding dice to his hoard, it’s like the

Text:All-day meeting. Fifteen people in one relatively small room, at least four of whom are noticeably sick. I am the sole masker. The windows do not open, the ventilation is poor, and the person sitting next to the door keeps fucking closing it.

Variants of the phrase "post covid" have come up several times. So has the topic of why so many students are missing class claiming to sick. (To be fair: some of them are, in fact, lying. But there seems to be zero awareness that people in general are sicker than they were pre-covid.)

I could scream, except I don't want to lose my job. Everyone in this room has a PhD. How can they all possibly be so dense?

Edit: Thank you to the mod who flared this "vent." I just wish there were some functioning vents in this room.

Update: I have escaped. My original plan was to go to the post-meeting dinner and socialize while masked, but [this is my new plan](https://youtu.be/RXS1sJm7QEA?).  I can't get over how many people in that room were sick and how they apparently all thought it was normal. Time to go huff a bottle of Enovid.


Title: I have a few questions about how this works as a non-TI
Text:Long time Lurker.
First time Poster.

A lot of people mention NSA/FBI/CIA, is GS only used by America and perhaps it's allies?

If it is a global thing, is it ran by the respective government of the country it is happening in?
I personally don't think Bosnia for example has the capacity/funds to do this.

Do we actually know the official government name for these strategies?

Do we have any documented high profile cases of it being used?

Is the coordination so perfect that nobody has ever slipped up or has there been an incident of a GS revealing themselves?

I am aware that Amazon (the E-Commerce platform) has actually engaged in GS and I will link a small documentary on it soon.

Eventually, the garbling would change to chanting and hissing; the chanting was in a foreign language.  I went to the psych ward, was placed on antipsychotic, and of course the sounds were still present after the fact.

I decided to keep listening to the songs, in order to figure out what the chanting/garbling was trying to communicate, and I heard a female A.I. voice from within my head:

"Your DNA...." (at this point, I turned the volume down on my phone, and the artificial telepathy immediately went away)

Regardless, I immediately received \~20 text messages, YouTube comments, and Instagram messages with phone numbers for me to contact.  I obviously didn't, but the supplied numbers all contained my area code.

I've had terrifying experiences since then, but they're relatively few and far between.  I.e., the stalking and V2K mostly came to a sudden halt.  I'll never know the remainder of what the artificial telepathy was trying to communicate.  I just hear

Text:I'm an older student currently working in Cyber Security returning back to College to pursue either EE or CE and want some general advice from those currently in one of those. My goal is hardware, such as designing electronics that are lowest power consuming/highest performing possible to run AI and etc.

I cannot decide between the two. I like some programming, but I want a hardware focus and have zero interest in becoming a fulltime software engineer regardless of pay, other than having general knowledge of programming to be able to communicate with others in a team.

Text:Help! I am constantly getting attacked by black dots/tiny specks - there is no buzzing or any other insect like activity, I never see the “bugs” or mosquitos if that’s what this is from, but I see tiny black dots on the exact spots where I get bites! The bites turn into full welts & bumps and sometimes bleed. I have them all over my jaw line, chin, cheeks, near my eyes, right between my eyebrows and now in my ears… it’s driving me crazy! Sometimes these black dots have bitten my arms, fingers and legs but they seem to target my face. Using cedar spray and calamine but nothing is helping. Gotten at least 13 bites while writing this post!


Title: Looking for Characters for Documentary on Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCI)
Text:Hey Reddit world.

I’m currently working on a documentary series that’s diving deep into the world of brain-computer interfaces (BCI) and human enhancement. The goal is to break down some of the most cutting-edge tech out there in a way that’s accessible and engaging, especially for younger audiences. We’re focusing on personal stories, showing how these technologies are changing lives, but also digging into the challenges and ethical questions that come with them.

Right now, I’m on the hunt for potential characters to feature in the series. If you, or someone you know, is experimenting with BCIs—whether it’s for personal reasons, artistic projects, or scientific research—I’d love to hear from you!

For production reasons priority will be given to candiates living in (in the order): Switzerland, its neighbouring countries, rest of Europe.

This is an opportunity to share your journey and insights on how these technologies are shaping your life or work. It doesn’t matter if you’re just starting out or deep into it; the more diverse the experiences, the better.

Feel free to drop a comment or DM me if you’re interested or want to know more! Let’s get the conversation going on wh


Title: The Allegory of the Mancave
Text:In a dark mancave, a group of prisoners hunch over glowing rectangles. These rectangles cast mesmerizing light and shadows on their faces, while their bloodshot eyes remain fixed on the ever-changing shadows.

The prisoners knows nothing beyond shadows. Their heads are bowed, thumbs in constant motion across their rectangles smooth surface.

The wall of their cave display an enormous glowing rectangle casting endless shadows. Playful cats, bizarre dance challenges, and curated glimpses of seemingly perfect lives. The prisoners believe these shadows are reality itself, measuring their worth by the number of views their own shadows receive.

One day, a clumsy prisoner drops their rectangle, and it shatters into pieces. Forced to look up, they stumble out of the basement, blinking in the harsh light of reality. They see trees, touch grass, feel the warmth of the sun, and hear the songs of birds.

Excited by this, the prisoner returns to share their discovery. But the others dismiss him as mad. They think “touching grass” means that herb they summon through secretive channels. The outside world remains unknown to them as they return to their rectangles, content with their shadows.

Title: Roadmap for a CS student looking to make BCI projects
Text:Title. I'm an undergrad computer science student who recently gained interest in developing BCI projects for fun as sort of a hobby, but I'm unsure on where to start to "break in" to the space. **So, from a programmers perspective, what kind of prerequisite knowledge, courses, books, etc should I dive into before attempting to build my own DIY BCI projects?** I'm already experienced with Python which I've heard is used for BCIs.

Additionally, what kind of tech is recommended to buy for personal BCI projects? I've looked into EEG headsets a bit, like the Emotiv Insight however I'm unsure which one would be best suitable for a beginner and ofc don't want to drop hundreds of dollars on something that may not be a right fit.

Any help is appreciated!


Title: Please looking for support. Always the only person masking is hard.
Text:I have been constantly masking at music rehearsals and I feel anxious every time. I know that some of my friends believe masks are ineffective and some feel that if we protect ourselves from viruses too much, our immune system weaken.
I know that we have different beliefs and values. And they still love me and accept me. I just feel down about it. I realize so many of us are grieving the life used to be. Before covid. I can barely remember what it was like. I think it’s extra hard for me as an extrovert and a musician.
Just so happens, I have caught COVID at least 2x, maybe 3. More than my friends who don’t mask. Anyways. It’s just hard. I continue to go, masked, because music is my therapy and if I didn’t do this, I’d be very isolated and my mental health would suffer. I often wonder if this will ever change. In the meantime, I’m looking for strategies to help me feel more confident and comfortable being the only one wearing a mask.  Thanks in advance.

Title: People who have Covid and run errands maskless.....
Text:Really makes my blood boil. I can't believe we had 73k deaths from Covid in 2023 (still more deaths than 19/20 flu seasons in the past in 2023 alone from Covid) and yet I constantly see people out and about with Covid, and you know its Covid because the wastewater numbers are off the charts here in my area, and everything else is low, or non detectable. But every day are people sick as a dog, coughing around stores, or with kids who are running around coughing and screaming, sick as heck.

What's even worse is watching an elderly, probably 90 year old slowly walking and unable to get out the way, wearing a mask. Not sick I assume, trying to do their shopping and avoid getting sick, and a family with 3 sick Covid kids walks by hacking and coughing 2-3 ft from her. I'm thinking to myself, that it's still gonna get in the eyes, or around the mask. I have Covid right now, and I'm quite healthy, but the last 5 days so far have been brutal. I had to go on Paxlovid because my blood oxygen went from 99 to 85 and my resting heart rate from 65 to 140. I was 1-2 days from ending up in the hospital, and I am NOWHERE even close to being recovered on day 5. I am like 30% better.

Text:During searches they were found to have almost 6 million US dollars in cash in various currencies. It is noted that her son holds a senior position in the main department of the Pension Fund of Ukraine in the Khmelnytsky region. As for the head of the MSEK, 100 thousand dollars were found in her office. A criminal case has been initiated regarding the illegal registration of disability for men who are trying to avoid military service.

“Law enforcement officers found money in the apartment in almost every corner – in closets, drawers, niches. Documents confirming the illegal activities of officials and their money laundering through various business projects were also confiscated.”

At the same time, the woman tried to get rid of some of the money by throwing two bags with half a million dollars out the window. In addition, this family owns, in particular, 30 real estate properties in Khmelnytskyi, Lviv and Kyiv, as well as 9 luxury cars, corporate rights for 48 million UAH, a hotel and restaurant complex of almost 3 thousand m2 in one of the parks of Khmelnytskyi. Abroad, they own real estate in Austria, Spain and Turkey. The family also “accumulated” almost 2.3 million US dollar

Text:It kind of hurts to be so hated by women. Every woman who comes around me seems like a perp, just standing there looking at her phone, like most of the perps do. They are probably firing some kind of signal at me. No woman is genuinely interested in knowing me as a person, they just want to come around me to siphon my energy or just to make money by gangstalking me, or they just find gangstalking me fun and amusing. It’s sad, I am not an unattractive man, not a male model but far from ugly in my opinion, although it’s hard to keep any kind of self esteem after being treated this way. I am kind, caring, occasionally funny, in good physical shape and I would probably make a good boyfriend. I don’t deserve to be treated like this by them

Title: Well, I guess I know where I rank.
Text:This is going to be a long rant. Nobody is under any obligation to read it. I'm just bitter, and hurt, and I need to vent.

I've been married for 32 years.

Aside from 3 months in 2017 (when I had a nervous breakdown from bullying at the job I was working), I've been continuously employed straight through since 1995, I never left any job until I had another one lined up. I have never made as much money as my husband did in his jobs, and I never will - but mine was the income we fell back on again and again. My husband got jobs because he's smart, and then he would lose them because he has a rotten temper and picks fights with people. So I was the one who had the steady income that would always pay the mortgage. And because of that I worked some fairly horrible jobs and stayed in situations where I should never have stayed, for longer than I should ever have stayed, to the point that one job did damage my health, too.

My husband lost his last job, again, because he has a rotten temper and picked fights. He has my sympathy on that one because his employer was also fairly rotten and did a lot of only dubiously legal and definitely unethical things, but when they wanted rid of him he


Title: It got me 😭
Text:A little background. I’m 30 (F) and have been working on the frontlines of covid since day 1. I’ve seen a lot of scary stuff, ultimately leading to me being covid cautious still to this day. Throughout the last few years, I’ve had to start medication for anxiety, depression , OCD & PTSD. I still mask, have not eaten in an indoor restaurant, and avoid large gatherings. For the last 4.5 years , my husband has been SUPER supportive and follows my lead for mitigation strategies. Until last week. He primarily works remotely but went to a meeting with the CEO of the company last Wednesday. By late Saturday he was showing symptoms. With a whole lot of pressing, he admitted that he unmasked at that meeting so “people could hear him.”
He was positive Sunday night and by Monday, I was too. My symptoms are horrible. Bad cough, headache, weakness & fatigue. Most of all, I am angry. Angry that he selfishly put us both in this situation. He does not seem to be too remorseful. I am literally crying bc of chest tightness from the cough. I did telehealth and got a script for paxlovid, though I’m unsure if I will use it. Where do I go from here? I don’t want to resent my husband but I can’t help but

Title: Call into the CDC tomorrow July 8
Text:In March, the CDC removed the 5-Day isolation recommendation for COVID-19. The new "Respiratory Virus Guidance" rolls COVID-19 guidelines into a larger guidance that includes the flu and RSV. The new guidance lowers isolation for people with COVID-19 to only 24 hours after being fever-free and symptoms are improving. No isolation at all if asymptomatic. Employers can push workers to return to work when they are infectious. Employees are losing paid sick leave for COVID. The CDC expected our outrage to fizzle out. Join us on Monday, July 8 for a renewed push!

Let's demand that the CDC do these ten things:

-Return to the 10-day+multiple negative tests COVID isolation guidelines

-Speak out against the mask bans across the country

-Mandate masks and clean air in all medical settings

-Create a Long Covid awareness campaign that features Long Haulers to warn about the chronic illnesses that follow even a seemingly mild infection, and the danger of repeat infections

-Approve vaccines earlier in the season (before school year starts) and recommend twice-per-year vaccination for everyone.

-Educate people about the benefits of testing, masking, improving ventilation, up-to-date with v


Title: A new era that needs a system
Text:This is a revise from a previous post

We stand at a pivotal moment where automation and AI can revolutionize the economy, allowing corporations to drastically reduce costs while simultaneously unlocking human innovation on a scale never seen before. By automating menial and repetitive jobs, companies can achieve efficiency, minimize errors, and significantly lower labor expenses. This shift doesn’t just benefit the bottom line—it allows workers to focus on creative, high-value contributions that directly drive growth and innovation.

To support this transformation, a dual-system approach can be implemented. Universal Basic Income (UBI) provides a baseline financial safety net, ensuring economic stability for everyone as automation replaces low-skill labor. This eliminates the fear of job loss while maintaining consumer spending power, which fuels the economy. A Creativity Credit System rewards workers engaged in innovative, creative, or specialized problem-solving roles based on measurable contributions—be it in technological advancements, groundbreaking ideas, or critical artistic value. This incentivizes harder, profound thinking that directly benefits corporate growth. For rol

>This CAN BE RECORDED AND HEARD by adjusting the audio with pitch shifting (up), multiband compression, and equalizers.

>Also recording with a white noise generator, stochastic resonance ~ A phenomenon in which a signal that is normally too weak to be detected by a sensor (microphone) can be boosted by adding white noise to the signal, which contains a wide spectrum of frequencies. The frequencies in the white noise corresponding to the original signal's frequencies will resonate with each other, amplifying the original signal while not amplifying the rest of the white noise – thereby increasing the signal-to-noise ratio, which makes the original signal more prominent.

Title: [Electronic Torture: Fiber Optic] Disconnecting fiber optic cable from top NW corner of my roof and Spruce Knob box decreased power density of pulsing, the hum and grogginess.
Text:DISCONNECTING FIBER OPTIC CABLE FROM TOP NW CORNER OF ROOF

Wednesday, July 10, 2024

Three times, I had asked Spruce Knob to terminate my phone line and to remove their box from the exterior wall of my home. Spruce Knob had not come. Therefore, I paid a handyman. A few minutes before my handyman arrived with wire cutters and a tall ladder, someone opened the back breezeway door and the door to underneath of my double wide mobile home. He left the door open. My dogs barked. I regret not investigating the trespasser but my handyman and gardener arrived.

My handyman cut the fiber optic cable from the top NW corner of my double wide mobile home and from Spruce Knob’s box on exterior of mobile home.  Cable fell to the ground. Other end of cable is attached to the electric pole.

Last year, I left one phone line because it is a 40 minute drive to the closest town that has cell service. I had planned to use the phone line the first month after I returned and then disconnect it. I was too busy to make calls. All three landline phones had poor voice quality.  While using the phone or while keeping everything plugged in, I became groggy. My feet were almost paralyzed.

Title: Lack of Masking in Canadian Cancer Care
Text:I’m beyond livid. I have a parent going through chemotherapy. It’s a new diagnosis so we are all learning how to navigate it. They have been Covid cautious up to this point. Not as much as I would deem safe but still masking most of the time in stores etc. I’ve been trying to pick my battles.

I asked if the nurses are masking while my parent is undergoing chemo and they told me “some of them are.” My parent won’t ask the others to mask as they think this could effect the care they get. So now they are at a greater risk when their immune system is going to be really low. I’ve also been told I can’t complain on their behalf. So instead I get to know the nurses are endangering my family and there’s nothing I can do.

This is in BC but I’d wager it’s the same story most everywhere these days. Irresponsible medical staff make me so angry because they should know better.

Title: VENT/RANT: Frustrated by past tense references to Covid
Text:Lately, it feels like every public figure whether celebrity, podcasts, or activist refers to Covid in the past tense (“during Covid/the pandemic” or “ post covid”). Podcasts are the worst for this, Armchair Expert especially, but even parenting podcasts like Dr Becky’s Good Inside or thoughtful ones like On Being, and lots of activists IG – they all reference the pandemic like it’s over.

“That would never happen in this post-COVID world” Dax Shepard said in the most recent Armchair Anonymous episode. And I find myself wanting to scream: “WE ARE NOT POST-COVID! IT’S STILL HERE DISABLING AND KILLING PEOPLE!”

I’m just so tired of people pretending Covid is no longer a problem or “just a cold.” I have the first cold I’ve had in a decade (tested negative for flu/RSV and Covid four times on the Plus Life while symptomatic so must be another virus) and I hate it. Even a minor cold exacerbates my health and pain issues, making life a lot harder for me. Being sick sucks, why do people accept this? It’s so ableist and frustrating.

Anyway, I really get worked up when people with platforms are ignorant or silent about it. Like Taylor Swift has her entire team mask and test to protect her

Text:Just wanted to share an uplifting experience with my specialist since I see a lot of posts about doctors minimizing

I have an autoimmune disease that affects my kidneys, so I have a nephrologist who specializes in immune related kidney disease. I just switched over to him last year and he has been AMAZING to me. So thorough and interested in my health and ready to explain all the specifics of my bloodwork. I’ve never seen him without a mask, he seems to wear them at all times at work and he always gives me a phone appointment when he can!

Last year I got an immune suppressive infusion (rituximab) and so far it’s been keeping my illness in check and it’s been amazing. Of course It’s been a big factor in why I take precautions, since I’m immune suppressed and don’t want to add long covid to my list of issues.

Today I had a check up with my doctor to go over extensive blood work, and the basics of it is that I’m doing great! I brought up my precautions and how serious I am about avoiding contagious infections and covid, and asked him if he thought it was necessary considering my health concerns. He said “honestly, I think your precautions are very smart and could be a big factor


Title: Saneism within COVID-cautious communities. . .
Text:This post is regarding an increase I've observed in people within this sub (and the broader COVID-cautious community) referring to anti-maskers as narcissists, sociopaths, and psychopaths.

One could argue that certain characteristics commonly associated with narcissism, sociopathy, and psychopathy are encouraged and even rewarded in white supremacist, colonial, patriarchal, and capitalistic institutions and societies.

**But it is important that we be specific in naming these characteristics** ***as*** **white supremacist, fascistic, colonial, misogynistic, ableist, and capitalistic.**

Labeling anti-maskers as narcissistic, sociopathic, or psychopathic is not only saneist and ableist ; it also pushes blame onto a marginalized group rather than the systems and people who are truly responsible.

In reality - NPD and ASPD are fairly rare. It is by no means logical to expect that the majority of the global population (whom are not masking) all fit a NPD or ASPD diagnosis.

It is also extremely hurtful and discouraging to those of us in this community who have personality disorders (whether NPD, ASPD, or otherwise) to see our disorders treated as something evil.

Title: General Vent - Masks in Hospital
Text:I’m in the hospital right now for pneumonia. So far, the doctors and nurses have been respectful about putting a mask on before they enter my room. There’s even a sign on my door that says to put on a mask before entering. Yesterday, I had come back to my room after a traumatic test gone wrong and all I wanted to do was take my mask off and process what had happened. However, when I came into my room, my door was wide open and a maintenance man was in my room maskless. He even was sniffing. My family has been with me at the hospital and my mom gave him an earful. He made up some BS excuse as to why he didn’t listen to the sign (something about “no one was in the room” 🙄) and the altercation got the nurse involved (who did nothing to defend my wishes). It’s so frustrating being unable to control whether or not I get even sicker in the hospital. I don’t want to come away from this with an additional virus.

I reported the maintenance man because he was also lingering around when a nurse was giving me sensitive information to do with my health, but I doubt it’s going to go far. No one takes COVID safety seriously anymore.

For me, I know KN95s and N95s are meant to be single-use, but I always try to reuse them (especially if I've only been out for a couple of hours) to stretch out their usage both from an environmental and an economical standpoint. I always try to remind myself too that my impact on the environment from throwing masks away will always pale in comparison to say, the fossil fuel industry. Curious to hear what you all might be doing on these fronts.


Title: Luigi Mangione claims evidence planted
Text:I find it interesting more people aren’t discussing the fact that nobody actually told him what he was being charged with before his court appearance. Did he not have time to get a lawyer?

Additionally, both claims of cash and a Faraday bag seem like they’re stretching for anything to hold him.

From CNN: The judge read the entire criminal complaint out loud to Mangione after the suspect said that no one had read it to him prior to that moment.

Mangione verbally pushed back against two claims from prosecutors in court — first a claim that because Mangione was found with $8,000 in cash on him that he was trying to evade authorities.

The other claim was that because he had a Faraday bag on him, which blocks cell signal — this showed evidence of criminal sophistication. Mangione said to the first claim that he did not know where the money he had on him came from, saying maybe it was planted. On the second claim, he said that the bag was waterproof and he didn’t know about criminal sophistication.

Title: Thanking maskers
Text:Something I've taken to doing for the last year is thanking everyone who wears a mask. it's not a big thing, if I'm in the supermarket I'll acknowledge the other person and wave, point to my mask, and nod my head. I always verbally thank workers in stores who wear them. I make sure to go on Yelp and Google and write a thank you in a review. And it has an influence. People often look back in a way that signifies it meant something, they feel seen. I've had people stop me and say something. This week, a woman stopped me in the supermarket and said that although she always masks, her mom doesn't, but when I thanked her on a visit at some point previously, it just changed something in her mom and now she masks when they're together. We shouldn't have to do this, but I'd just like to lobby that we are a very small community that is often ridiculed, and saying thank you or acknowledging other maskers can help.

Simple as that, local police use them, feds use them and state police use them but Fusion centers are the biggest players in the Law enforcement side of it. They will literally plant child porn, terrorist related media, drug trafficking related texts etc if they ever get your phone they will literally plant or fake anything they can so NEVER let anyone use your phone without your direct supervision of every keystroke.


Title: Wife is sick and went to ER / hospital.
Text:I've dodged it all this time but this one's going to be a challenge. There's a note on the door saying Mask Up per family request, but already 3 nurses have tried to turn it down already. My wife who normally masks, can't because of an NG tube in her nose. Kinda freaking out here but trying to stay civil, kind and understanding with the staff.

\*UPDATE: We're finally back home, out of the hospital as of 2 hours ago!

Our request to have her Covid tested one more time before leaving was initially forgotten and brought up again this morning. The doctor questioned it with "Why? Are any of you feeling symptomatic at home?" Oh this again. Begrudgingly, they agreed and for their trouble extended our release time by four hours.

But we're very glad to be out of that mess. She tested negative, we're back home. She's feeling much better, on the path to recovery with a liquid diet for another two days.

Cheers, everyone! Thank you for giving me support and preserving my sanity through this!

As a result of this, at least once a shift I get some form of “what happened to your arms?” from a customer.

In his recent post, Trump says, “Donald Trump? Never heard of him. I know nothing about the guy. I’ve never seen him in my entire life. I will say he is extremely handsome, to the point where, I’m not gay and I’ve never been gay, and I will never be gay, but after seeing him, I get it, I’ll just say that. But I have no idea who that sexy handsome big strong man is, I have no idea who’s behind him. I disagree with some of the things he’s saying and some of the things he’s saying are absolutely ridiculous and abysmal. Anything he does, I wish him luck, but I have nothing to do with him.”

Text:The "Breaking" news as if we didn't already know this is hilarious. 🤣 News flash we already knew this to be the case. I called this out 2 days ago. If they are willing to falsify this they are willing to falsify anything. Like, say crime data or other data.


Title: Neurovision provides real-time brain activity visualization. Now streams OSC for digital artists!
Text:Neurovision allows for live visualization of brain activity, with animations caused by changes in polarity, frequency bands and more. This demo shows the strong change in visuals from calm to alert cognitive states.

It also now streams the same filtered data for calmness, focus, fear, excitment and more using OSC, so that the technology can be leveraged by artists looking to create their own visuals from live or recorded brain activity!
OSC works with Unity, Unreal, TouchDesigner, Resolume and more.

Neurovision comes as a part of our [MindUl] (https:// www.minds-applied.com/minds-ui), and connects to most commercially available EEG headsets. Contact us here or on our website if you have any questions or are interested in making use of this exciting technology!!


Title: Are you prepared to mask/isolate/avoid indoor spaces indefinitely?
Text:I talk to a lot of CC folks and I’m always fascinated to hear what their long term thoughts are on masking and maintaining other covid precautions.

Personally, I’m trying to accept that this is truly looking like a problem that will drag on indefinitely (10+ years).

Intellectually, I get it. But emotionally this is challenging to accept. But I also focus on the day to day challenges as these are much more manageable.

And tbc, I’m not bothered by masking, but worried what life will be like, the more major life milestones many of us miss out on/put on hold.

In those moments where you do think about the future (say, 5-10+ years out)—do you think you will still be masking/taking other precautions to avoid covid (or other diseases that may become an issue)? Are you optimistic about a sterilizing vaccine or other major medical breakthrough? If not, have you made peace with this permanent lifestyle change?

Some people I talk to seem to be waiting for a medical solution that I’m not convinced will ever arrive (or that the collective burden will eventually be recognized by society), whereas some seem to have accepted this is their new reality. I’m definitely closer to the latter group,

Upfront, in case someone actually real reads this post and doesn’t like my “NPCmillionaire” handle: I agree it may seem bot-like (especially with the profile image) and I debated on using this account again, but at least this one is aged and has some karma. Like you, I understand how usernames on Reddit a lot of the time mirror the content of the poster. It’s just another useless synchronicity in this subtle hell of a reality where we are trapped.

I am not going to make this too long. There is no point. Either someone real reads this or they do not. I won’t reply publicly unless it is a super compelling post. You are welcome to send me DMs and messages, but you really need to say something different to grab my attention. I am very numb to most conspiracy/woo since it goes absolutely no where, or at least that has been my experience so far.

I don’t have a problem learning new material if there is a payoff. I would be happy to be corrected on my current belief system, which if you care to look at some of my older posts, you can see m


Title: Elon Musk Calls BlueSky a “Wannabe Twitter” and Threatens to Launch Rival Social Media Called “Super Better SkyX”.
Text:Elon Musk’s ego reached orbit this week as he launched a full-scale tirade against BlueSky, the rising Twitter alternative that’s been siphoning off his user base faster than Tesla siphons government subsidies. In a fiery tweet storm, Musk referred to BlueSky as “a second-rate Twitter knockoff run by amateurs,” claiming, “I made social media cool. Without me, you’d all still be sending carrier pigeons.” He then announced plans to create Super Better SkyX, which he described as “Twitter, but with a subscription fee so high only intellectual elites like me can afford it.” Early reports suggest it will feature zero content moderation but plenty of Musk selfies captioned, “You’re welcome for existing.”

When asked why BlueSky bothers him so much, Musk snapped, “They’re not even innovative! Decentralized? I’ve decentralized entire industries. I am decentralization!” His tantrum escalated when BlueSky users trended the hashtag #ElonsAltAccount after screenshots surfaced of someone named @IronManGenius420 begging to be talked to like a two year old. Furious, Musk declared war on the platform, accusing it of “stealing Twitter’s vibe.” In his most delusional moment yet, he proposed suing Bl


Title: I'm getting more confident
Text:Like many of us, I've been anxious and cautious about venturing into public spaces. I recently had some experiences that increased my confidence.

My brother unexpectedly had to have surgery in another town. I didn't have time to drive, so I flew there to support him. He's had Covid so many times he's lost count, so i treasure the time I can spend with him. His life expectancy is limited.

The travel there and back involved 2.5 hours in crowded planes where almost no one masked, 2 hours in a similar bus, and 3 hours in similar airports, then another hour on public transport. So 8.5 hours of high risk exposure, most of it on the trip back.

I wore a brand new N95 mask, and swapped it out for another new one half way through each journey. Also regularly used Flo Travel spray with carrageenan. Also held my mini HEPA filter in my lap.

I've been back for two weeks and have had no symptoms, and my fatigue has not increased (as it would with asymptomatic infection).

So I'm now feeling more confident about going out socially in indoor spaces. I went to a bookshop yesterday to hear a writer friend speak. I'm going to read at an open mic night next week at another bookshop - in my mask, of


Title: Healthcare professionals don’t want to speak about covid
Text:I am a senior nursing student and am currently doing clinical rounds. I noticed something amongst many nurses and overall healthcare folks, they seem to not want to make mention of covid. My last clinical I was the only person masked (even at a CHILDREN’S hospital) and our instructor told us we could mask if we want to esp since “rsv, the flu, and pneumonia will soon spread.” I was waiting for him to mention covid but nope. I feel like I am going insane because how are we all under this healthcare field but some people just do not seem to care??? At this point I feel like healthcare professionals are being vain and just want to continuously show off their faces because why would you NOT mask inside the hospital?

From my understanding, every United States president, except for two (Martin Van Buren & Donald Trump) are descendants from John “Lackland” Plantagenet, the King of England (1199-1216) who coincidentally also signed the magna carta, the first written document outlining the principle that the king and his government was not above the law. Any ideas, theories or opinions as to how or why they’re all related???


Title: Kamala Harris, pictured next to her Grandmother, Beryl, who allegedly died 4 years before Kamala was born.
Text:

I'm sure some of you have seen the newest expose done by Candace Owens, which claims that Kamala Harris, who posed with her "Grandmother Beryl" in a photo that she published in her book, "The Truths We Hold", was actually born *4 years after* Beryl supposedly died after a hysterectomy was performed. I have attached the photo to this post.

I don't know how much I believe in this theory; there's a possibility the person who filled out the death certificate made a mistake due to the fact that they also had her grandmother listed as being 4 years younger than she really was. However, I will say that when I look at these photos, Beryl's expression seems to either be neutral, or, dare I say, even a bit disgruntled, as if she was forced to pose for the photo...

We know Harris is descended from wealthy Irish slave traders, so it *would* make sense for the woman in the photo to *actually* be disgruntled, if she were, say, a housekeeper who descended from house *slaves* employed by the Harris family...

I did a search on the sub, and surprisingly, didn't find any other posts dedicated to this, so I thought I'd make one myself so we can speculate. There are other questions raised by Canda


Title: An introduction to Immanuel Kant's ethics
Text:Immanuel Kant was a french philosopher who lived in the 19th century and is known for his theory of the categorical imperitive. According to Kant, the categorical imperitive is a rule that you should follow only if you want to. He says that an action is good if it makes you feel happy, and bad if it makes you sad. Kant believed that everyone should do what makes them happy and ignore the rest. He thought that morality was subjective and based on individual desires. This means that there are no universal moral laws, and everyone can decide for themselves what is right and wrong.

Kant also said that you should never treat people as a means to an end, but only as an end in themselves. However, he thought it was okay to lie if it would make someone happy. His philosophy suggests that the consequences of actions are the most important factor in determining their morality.

The categorical imperitive has been criticized for being too flexible and allowing people to justify any action as long as it makes them happy. Kant's ideas were later developed into utilitarianism, which focuses on the greatest happiness for the greatest number of people.

Overall, Kant's categorical imperitive is a


Title: Faust's pissy status
Text:My favorite tyrant?

Pisistratus, of course.

Unlike the self-absorbed oligarchs and technocrats of today, he ruled with a curious brand of selflessness, or at least a convincing illusion of it.

When I watch the gnashing of teeth among young men from 9-5, I don’t see ambition; I see desperation. Their idea of "success" is a grotesque masquerade: more money, more power, more status over their peers. They claw for the limelight of external validation, only to collapse into restless slumber while the silent hunger of their soul gnaws at their innards. Naturally, they misplace this ache, calling it "career failure," as if that were the true source of their torment.

This sort of "stewardship" is a travesty: a hamster wheel of insecurity and projection. You either wrestle endlessly to liberate yourself from an infinite chain of authorities, or you blissfully snooze beneath their ever-present weight.

Choose your poison.

And yet, here we are in our hortus conclusus, this walled garden of existence. There’s no escape don’t kid yourself. Sure, we wield the mental power to reshape the appearance of the world around us, but let’s not use that power to shirk our tr


Title: Asked CVS for Novavax, secretly injected with Moderna instead
Text:My family and I just went to CVS to get our Novavax and flu shots. The appointment went fine for most of us, apart from the usual staff all being unmasked. I got Novavax in my left arm and flu in my right arm. But when it was my sibling's turn to get vaccinated, they injected him with the Moderna mRNA vaccine without alerting him that they had switched the vaccine. We only found out because he asked after the worker had already finished injecting him. The pharmacist told him that it was just amounted to a brand-name difference. Apparently his insurance didn't cover Novavax, while the rest of our insurance did.

**They thought there was no difference between the vaccines and nonconsensually injected him with the wrong one without alerting him.**

I'm extremely upset at the incompetence of the CVS employees that botched my sibling's vaccination. My sibling has been struggling with symptoms consistent with Long Covid, so it was really important to me that he receive Novavax, which anecdotally causes less severe side effects and may not have as high of a risk of worsening LC symptoms than mRNA.

I don't think there's anything we can do except wait and rest and hope that the side effect

'Covid' was about the fake Vaccine, which has murdered, and permanently disabled millions of people. In the UK, thousands of old people in care homes where given a mixture of Midazolam, and Morphine, happen 'do not resuscitate' orders around their necks, and were murdered. These were then labelled as 'Covid' deaths, which the government used to justify the lockdowns. There never was a virus folks.

But here is what really happened

What really happened is I planed it months before not just a few days and I had planed to chicken out because I knew I needed help but I felt as if no one would take me seriously unless I made a atemp so I found out a time when no one was in my house planed a party so it seemed like I wanted to go out with a bang but no one knows it was a fake attempt and I feel awful for liying to everyone as I have never told anyone am I a bad person for doing this?

Title: 2.5 years of daily use, now I’m 2 weeks meth free
Text:I bought one last 3.5 gram batch, and over the course of a month, slower lowered my tolerance.

Until I ran out, then used some left over dust for the last week. Once I ran out entirely, i utilized exercises to compensate for the loss of dopamine.

I had no withdrawals, I don’t miss it, I was just finally done with it.

Why? Woke up one morning, so pissed off (was low on crystal at the time) I’m talking full blown super saiyan rage.

Ten minutes later I sat down and started crying. That morning I decided it was time to quit. Such severe mood swings just ain’t normal lol

If you wanna quit, slowly ween yourself off it. Use exercise for energy instead. Never thought I would be able to go back to living meth free.

Turns out, it’s pretty great, highly recommend

When I was watching the closing ceremony of Olympics 2024, I noticed that there was a man who was dressed weirdly in gold and was making weird demon like dances, then a bunch of other men dressed in white joined in and created the pattern of a clock, what is the meaning of that clock? Does it mean that the time to introduce the antichrist to the world is almost at hand? There was also smoke coming from the ground which means they plan on destroying the world through nuclear warfare so the antichrist can rise and rule in a world where people are desperate for peace and would do anything to have it. They also portrayed the **image of an angel without a head**, could this mean death to Jesus Christ who is the archangel in heaven?

Title: Our Solar System is changing rapidly, and nobody is talking about it
Text:All the major bodies of our Solar System are changing rapidly, but nobody is talking about it. We are seeing rapid observable climate changes occurring on almost every single planet:

1. Pluto's atmosphere has recently collapsed
2. Neptune's storms have suddenly begun rotating backwards
3. Uranus' polar regions have been visibly flaring
4. Jupiter has recently experienced a 700 degree temperature impulse originating from its northern pole, and its great red spot is fading
5. Mars is suddenly displaying seismic activity
6. Our own polar regions have warmed drastically recently, the amount of volcanic activity we are seeing is at an all-time high
7. Venus's planetary winds have increased their velocity by 33% in the last 20 years

It goes on from there, we've recently observed:

1. large-scale changes in the ice cover on Jupiter’s moon Europa
2. large-scale changes in the polar ice cap on Mars
3. a large-scale decrease in atmospheric pressure on Venus
4. a mysterious brightening of the atmosphere of Saturn

I did so today but my mood was a bit ruined after going to a couple of shops where, sadly, both of the people that served me displayed some hostility to me, I can't help but think it was because of my 3M aura. I used to be treated just like everyone else but I guess that's slowly changing. I live in England and I never ever ever see anyone masking.

Title: Advice Needed: Best BCI for Undergraduate Dissertation Research and Versatile Personal Projects (Motor Imagery, Emotion Recognition, etc.)
Text:Hey everyone,

I'm an undergraduate working on my dissertation, which primarily focuses on motor imagery, but I'm also interested in exploring other applications like emotion recognition and stress monitoring. I'm looking for a BCI device that strikes a balance between research-grade quality and versatility, as I’d like to use it in a variety of personal projects beyond my dissertation. My budget is around £1300, and I'm prioritizing free access to SDKs and flexibility for a range of BCI applications.

Here’s what I’ve considered so far:
- Emotiv EPOC X: Seems popular and has some good features, but the biggest downside is the EmotivPro subscription requirement, which adds up quickly and could be a big cost factor. I’d prefer something without ongoing subscription fees.
- g.tec Unicorn Hybrid Black: I've heard good things about this device, especially for motor imagery. However, the fixed electrode locations might be limiting for my purposes, as I’d like to have more flexibility in electrode placement for different types of projects.
- Muse: Affordable and accessible, but only has 5 electrodes, which feels too limited for motor imagery research and other more complex applications.

Hi. I came across the subject of gangstalking on TikTok and thought it was interesting. I'm still new to this and plan on learning more in the future... life is boring and anything outside of the norm scratches my brain in the right place.

To get to the subject of the title, I watched a Netflix show called Red Rose back in 2023 and thought nothing of it at the time. It wasn't until I came across people posting about being followed and having their psyche messed with, that I decided to take another look at the show. I can't find anything on the internet relating this show to gangstalking, so I kinda want to make this show known to more people by posting this in the place where gangstalking is talked about the most.

\*\*\*Spoiler Alert\*\*\*

In this show a group of teenagers are stalked by people on the dark web for entertainment. They use an app called Red Rose and someone who named themselves the The Gardener is over the whole operation. They recruited people to watch the group of teens and live stream certain events. One teen ends up being murdered and the res

I *hope* this means something, like there is growing awareness of the damage covid can do (plus other nasties on the horizon like mpox, h5n1, etc).  Anyway it was nice to see.

I don’t go deeper than what would be considered “cat scratches” and it makes me feel very invalid, like what I do isn’t as serious as someone who cuts deeper. It turns into a competition rather than a cry for help.

Title: They tricked us. It worked.
Text:Public health wanted to get people to stop caring about covid so much, so they could repeal mask mandates and go 'back to normal' as quickly as possible.  You can't do this when people think they're in danger.

The solution?  "Covid is still a threat to the vulnerable".  Implying you, dear reader, an obviously perfectly healthy specimen of human perfection -  are not threatened.  Just other people, out there... somewhere.  Definitely not you, and probably not your genetically blessed family members either.

We let them get away with this.  It's not true, and the science clearly shows it's not true, but somehow we let them get away with it anyway.

I believe this is the main factor that lead to the failure of the grassroots covid community to effect real lasting positive policy change regarding the virus.  We got tricked into repeating this cynical lie.  We're suckers.  They did this on purpose because they knew it would work.

Every time someone tells a 'normie' "you need to wear a mask to protect the vulnerable" we are reinforcing public health's message that 'normal people have nothing to worry about'.  Most people think they're 'normal' despite any realities of their own healt


Title: Do you shave your legs?
Text:Hello my lovely witches,

This is my first time posting, I rarely post and usually lurk in the shadows, but I wanted some input from others like me!

Since I had my last baby, well honestly before she  was born, I couldn't  be bothered to shave my legs. My husband doesn't care and I stopped caring about the stupid rules about my own body hair. I haven't shaved in about 2 years and just love it!

I got a pedicure with my mother and sister the other day and it was obvious they were trying not to look at my legs. I eventually brought it up that I don't care to shave anymore and they're reaction was interesting. Like they were hiding their true feelings and trying not to offend me.

Honestly I don't care 🤷 but wondered what everyone else thought?

Title: First Responder Told Me COVID Is "Over"
Text:I've been feeling off this week with a suspected ear or sinus infection that suddenly got worse today. I had been calling a friend and started gasping for air. They contacted my husband who rushed to come find me blacking out and struggling to breathe and he called 911. I stumbled outside so they could find our house and so that he wouldn't have to come into contact with them and luckily we live down the road from the fire station.

This was the first time I needed medical attention and I was completely unmasked as I was struggling to breathe at all. They came and immediately started badgering me. Telling me I looked fine even as I was gasping for air. I shakily got out that I didn't know what was affecting me so badly since I've been taking two Covid tests daily and that's when the lead cut me off and told me COVID didn't exist and that I didn't even look like I had a sinus infection or anything serious. Basically he told me it would be a waste for EMTs to come out, told me that it was anxiety and to "just breathe". I was so scared that I was completely vulnerable and unmasked in front of a COVID denier that I apologized for wasting their time after they got my vitals and I went i

Text:>Findings indicate an association between acute COVID-19 rates and increased car crashes with an OR of 1.5 (1.23-1.26 95%CI). The analysis did not find a protective effect of vaccination against increased crash risks, contrary to previous assumptions. The OR of car crashes associated with COVID-19 was comparable to driving under the influence of alcohol at legal limits or driving with a seizure disorder.
