Title: I had to explain to a nurse who works in a hospital that covid is airborne.
Text:After frequent experiences where I was treated like shit by actual healthcare professionals for masking, I have to say this sub makes me feel less isolated, less stuck in a world where it seems everyone around me is stuck in the mass delusion that "things are fine" and only the disable will die, so it's fine right? (Even if that isn't true). Just so fucked because I'm completely isolated and going crazy because of it, and due to covid I have to either sacrifice my health, or stay alone. It's horrible, I wouldn't wish this on anyone.

Title: Finding it hard to remeber the bad times
Text:Finding it hard to find the bad times
Im at a meeting at a park i was homeless in my car at. I can see myself sitting in my car hitting the pipe and the bottle. The sun is setting and its really beautiful at this bay.. Beatiful women everywhere, public bathrooms and alot of free space to walk around and tweak. I remeber going through psychosis for the first time here the terror and the magic of it all. No boss,expectations and places to be. It was just me and my magical world
Its hard to remeber the times when i had to go steal food from grocery stores because i was starving or not being able to drive because i didnt have gas money. The feelings of shame and disgust as my car and body deteriorate. My car became a black hole where all my belongings would slowly get sucked into and lost forever in some alternate realm where all lost tweaker items end up. I would just stimfap days away. Time was irrelevant,weeks would go by without me. I wasnt talking to anyone besides the other lost souls id meet up in their coffins embeded in a place called a motel. Where weary travelers would come meet up and restock on supplies and wash the grim and muck from their skin, a place to scheme and

Title: I hate being the only person cautious in the hurricane aftermath
Text:I live in an area with power outages caused by the hurricane and hate being the only covid cautious person here. The thing I dreaded has happened - my grandparents’ power came back on while our estimate got pushed back to Sunday. Unfortunately they’re anti-vaxers who think covid is just a cold and my parents are forcing me to go over to their house tomorrow to do laundry and won’t let me wear a mask. The only reason they’re letting me take an air purifier is because I can use my allergies as an excuse.
I hate that I have to choose between taking a hot shower at their house and not showering or taking a cold shower at my house. I wish we could just wait and handwash/air dry the clothes we have, but no we have to go over there. My parents don’t understand why I’m mad because I just got the booster. I hate it so much. I’m gonna be able to do a nasal rinse when we get home thanks to boiling water on the grill, but I don’t know what else I can do besides just be mad and test every day for the next week.
Edit for update: we had a lot of trucks on our street this morning so my parents decided to wait and it was worth it because our power just came back on! Thankfully we ended up not goi

Title: 62yo mother just got covid, refusing to isolate. walking around the house and going into work a day after confirmed positive test.
Text:She and my sister (31) went to a wedding in NYC over the weekend, next day (after coming home) got a text saying one attendee tested positive, someone my mother was in close unmasked contact with. Day after that, she tests positive, sister still negative. I was told via text that my mother would stay in her room, and sister would bring her food. Mother's room is directly next to bathroom, so I was told she would only leave for that.
9:30pm, as I am waiting for the downstairs bathroom to be "safe" enough to use, mother suddenly comes out of her room and goes downstairs to throw her takeout bag away. She warned no one. She then informs me that she will still be going to work, physically. And also she will be resuming her normal routine (30+ minutes getting ready in upstairs bathroom, then making breakfast/eating dinner downstairs for another hour) in our very open house. Daily. Because she has some kind of complex about feeling "controlled" by others when asked to cut back aspects of her routine, even for something like this.
I have autism and anything relating to trouble breathing has always been a major fear of mine. My mother knows this. She simply doesn't care.

Title: Aging is one of the hardest parts
Text:There are a ton of terrible things that come hand in hand with this pandemic. People losing their lives, people developing long covid, and so much more.
But, if I may, I'd like to take a moment to also recognize and mourn the almost five years of lost youth that we've experienced.
A few days ago I caught myself watching a dating video on YouTube, and I realized that the participants were in their early 20's. As they talked about all of their experiences and the relationships that they've had, it struck me that they were probably all still in high school when the pandemic started.
And yet here they were, adults, remarking about all of this relationship growth and development in their dating lives that they've lived over the past five years. And that just hit me really hard, especially as someone whose number one goal going into 2020 was finding the right partner.
But, now it's like, I'm five years older, and even though I feel about the same age as when the pandemic started, on the outside I'm of course five years older. And I'm also in a completely different age category now on dating apps (if we could magically start dating safely, starting tomorrow.) What if it's five more y

Title: “Why is self harm bad???”
Text:My god. Use your brain. You are causing intentional HARM to yourself, doesn't matter if your cutting, burning, hitting, pinching, hitting, or any other form. Doesn't matter if it works. It's an unhealthy coping mechanism. So bad that you can quite literally DIE from this. Let's not also forget the fact to you can hit something and paralyze yourself and even loose a limb. You can also bleed out and die, plus infections ain't fun. I've never gotten one before, but I heard they suck. Now, using a rubber band is guess what ANOTHER FORM OF SELF HARM! All these "coping mechanisms" I see on here are just another form of self harm in disguise.

Title: what's the difference in quality between different hardware?
Text:I tried to get started on my project with a Muse S headband. I can't do anything with it. The only thing it's good at detecting is blinks, jaw movement, and any other face muscle.
I could try something less cheap, like a Neurosity crown. That looks like it mainly touches your hair, though, I'm not sure if you get solid EEG signals that way. The next price point up seems to be hardware from OpenBCI, which would be something like $1500.
Has anyone compared these against each other? What kind of difference is there in signal quality? Is there some other option for hardware that I should consider?

Title: Large number of women report shaving their head after listening to Grime's album "Art Angels"
Text:
Here's a weird one.
For those who don't know, Grimes is a musician who famously dated and has children with Elon Musk.
I noticed several comments saying that they had shaved their heads after listening to Grime's 2015 album "Art Angels". Interestingly one person said as soon as she stopped listening her desire to shave her head went away. There is an old reddit post from seven years ago where someone else noticed this phenomenon as well, but it has since been deleted. (If anyone can recover the OP please post it in the comments)
Many are familiar with Grime's membership in the Illuminati given her [prophecy stone](https://x.com/CnsprtrlRprt/status/1774054786213523604) and predictive programming where she wore masks and had 6 feet social distancing in her music video a month before covid happened.
I wonder what kind of demonic messages were encoded in her music to make this happen. Very strange. Never heard of anything like it.

Title: I cut my genitals tonight
Text:As the title says, I cut down there tonight. It’s my first time ever doing this..I am transgender (female to male) and I have bad gender dysphoria. I’ve struggled to not cut myself down there before but it finally happened tonight- I couldn’t take it anymore.
I feel ashamed having female genitalia, it’s a stab in the heart knowing I will never truly have a cisgender man‘s body. Now as I’m typing I’m tempted to go back and cut myself down there again. I briefly considered using scissors to cut a piece of my genitalia off but I don’t want to go to the hospital or have my mom know. I just want this stuff off my body. I’d rather have no genitalia than female genitalia.
I feel disgusted with myself when I experience arousal or the temptation to pleasure myself if you will. Yet I will go ahead with pleasuring myself sometimes anyways, only to feel guilt and hatred towards myself. I feel like a freak and an utter loser. The thought of being intimate with another person scares the shit out of me.
I did get top surgery a few months ago which has helped a lot and since then I have no urges to cut my chest as I once did when I still had breasts. But bottom surgery feels like it’s ages aw

Title: Any chance we're wrong about Covid?
Text:I was just thinking about how this subreddit is the ONLY group that I know of that is still concerned about Covid. Daily, we get anecdotes about how no one else cares. Doctors and nurses don't care. Health organizations and hospitals don't care. Public officials and celebrities don't care. Who does care? Seems to just be us. Doesn't that make you wonder?
p.s. I'm not a troll. I have barely left my house since Covid started. I am definitely one of you.

Title: Has Individuality become solipsism?
Text:Is the ritualistic marginalization of the self, which inherently causes one to stand out, the best way to ensure our flourishing, or has the priest class resurrected itself?
Do I bow my knee to doe eyed materialistic spiritualists, and the same to every class which has tacked a horse? Plainly, there is hardly any room left on your fingers for a ring, or some prefer their clothes in such disrepair any crown would fall off post haste.
I don't see all these holy men/women sharing drinks. Why is it they seem to flock with similar feathers, when all birds are welcome into his court? Just the other day a marvelous bird I knew fell.
Is what we call individuality perverted into solipsism?

Title: I will not be watching the Paris Olympics. Please consider boycotting. TW CW
Text:Convicted child r@pist Steven Van De Velde will be representing The Netherlands in volleyball at the 2024 Paris Olympics. After being convicted he was ONLY sentenced to 4 years and ONLY served 1 of those years.
I'm not going to get into more specifics of his crime. It is all easily searchable on Google. But due to The Netherlands having him represent their country and The International Olympic Committee not having a rule in place to keep monsters like this from competing, I will be boycotting.
If enough people complain loudly enough, and enough people boycott, then maybe we can illicit change.
I can't imagine how his victim must feel.
[Contact link for the Olympics](https://support.olympics.com/hc/en-gb/requests/new) It says that they do not follow up on opinions which is probably what they will classify any complaints they get as. But I would appreciate it if everyone could take the time to message the IOC and inform them of our disgust.
[Contact link for the IOC Netherlands. ](https://support.olympics.com/hc/en-gb/requests/new)Please message them our disgust too. Monsters that prey on children have no place being celebrated on the world stage.

It's my first bout, AFAIK. Thus far, I have a bit of tightness in my upper chest, and am clearing my throat more than usual. More on my emotional state later, lol.
My intention is to rest as much as possible, but I'm looking for what to do next.
I'm 51, but can't do Paxlovid due to medication contraindications. I'm pretty healthy.
Any recommended alternatives? Any tips as to vitamins, supplements, etc., what to do/ not do would really be appreciated.
Listen, I know shit happens, and I'm really proud and grateful for having avoided it so far. But I'm sitting here fukcing crying, because I can't believe it finally happened. And after I was trying SOOO goddamned hard, for so long.

Title: Worrying about climate change is existence-ist and stands in the way of the species that will replace us all
Text:If not for the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs, the humans and animals alive today wouldn’t be here. If we don’t continue our Holocene extinction inducing activities, we’re preventing the existence of the life forms that will replace the humans and animals alive today. Line of sight empathy is arbitrary. We have no inherent right to existence that outweighs a right to exist for future life forms that, frankly, could be so much more awesome than the tired out shit around today, like all these weird naked apes causing all this ruckus.

The worst part is the 24/7 computer voice/ai implanting thoughts/bells ringing/etc....People are still mind-controlled by the so-called psychiatrists who hardly ever, many probably never, give any kind of brain scan, but go on symptoms alone, and seem to be oblivious to the micro-chip/bci/nanotech/ear implant tech/ and so forth that is now being made known to the public (where its actually more advanced than what they tell the public) These mind controlled psychiatrists also ignore that there is lots and lots of documented evidence of secret psyop experiements by CIA on people for many decades.

Title: Blackrock Shorted Shares the Day Before the Failed Assassination - and Then Tried to Cover It Up
Text:On July 12 - the day before the assassination - Austin Private Wealth Management (AWPM) put in a "put" order to "short" 12 MILLION shares of DJTrump Media. They also heavily shorted JD Vance's Rumble stock.
"Shorting" effectively means they were betting on the stocks to suffer a massive crash.
Given all the talk about DNC chaos leading up until July 12, there is no reason on earth why any financial manager, let alone a wealth management firm of this caliber, would short either of those stocks.
The two largest shareholders of Austin Private Wealth Management are Blackrock and Soros.
Thomas E. Donilon is the Chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute and served as National Security Advisor to President Barack Obama. He has also received the CIA's highest service award.
APWM issued a statement yesterday claiming it was just a typo. Suuuuuuure.

Title: Cat hunters finally off the hook as scientists settle age-old debate over whether cats feel pain
Text:It is a debate that has raged for years. But now Britain’s over four hundred cat hunters (cunters) can rest easy – because cats do not feel pain, scientists have concluded.
Cats do not even suffer when they are hooked and fighting for their lives, according to research by an international team.
They say cats do not have a brain system or enough sensory receptors in the nerve cells to experience suffering.

*In the clear: Cunters may be off the hook after a research team discovered cats don't feel pain. (Image credit:* u/nat_lite *)*
While cats may struggle to get free, the scientists say this does not mean they are in pain. Instead, they show ‘little effect’ from injuries and toxins that would leave humans in agony.
In their experiments, reported in the scientific journal Cat Meat and Veganism, researchers inserted needles into the mouths of Maine Coon cats.
Jim Rose, professor of zoology and physiology at the University of Wisconsin, who led the project, said: ‘In spite of large injections of acid or bee venom, that would cause severe pain to a human, the cat

Title: JD Vance Just Screwed The Pooch and Cooked His Own Goose on "Face the Nation"
Text:In a stunning confession to CBS News this morning, Trump's VP Nominee, JD Vance, admitted he collard the migrants redhanded stealing geese from the pond in Springfield, Ohio to cook and eat based on a couple of reports from his constituents there.
But Enquiring minds studying the takedown photos surmised Vance himself must have captured the prey and after aprehending him, cooked and ate the geese himself.
Vance's running mate, Donald J Trump, in fact, rescued two kittens and a duck from Vance last week in Springfield, as widely reported across the globe.
Since dog road-kill connoseiur, Robert Kennedy, left the Trump pet rescue forces in Ohio, no dogs or kittens have been further harm. However, the fate of the geese there has now become a National concern Vance charges Kamala Harris continues to ignore.
Trump and Roger Stone are planning to return to Springfield and have sent their Proud Boys troops ahead to investigate the matter and interrogate Vance and his wife who is a vegetarian but admitted to letting her husband BBQ fowl meat on occassion.

Title: Threesome in Crime: The Normative Fishnet
Text:According to Cuneo, epistemic norms are analogous with moral/ethical norms.
According to Wittgenstein, morality is a family resemblance concept.
The most prominent family resemblance concept across the human civilization is the concept of a fish. This is demonstrated by the fact that every society knows what a fish is when they see one. The Fishiness of various aquatic animals have been subject of debate among gastronomists, paleontologist, marine biologists, and kindergarten teachers. These are fundamental questions such as: are whales fish? are jellyfish fish? are eels fish? are sharks fish? are humans fish?
The Unity of Objective Fishiness, just like the Unity of Objective Moral Good, have been called into question, as seen in Miller's "Why Fish Don't Exist", noting that it is a paraphyletic group, with no common ancestor nor unified criteria that excludes all non-fish while including all things that are fish at the same time
Therefore these three things will either stand together or fall together
* Morality
* Epistemic Norm
* Fish
If objective morality does not exist, then that means objective fishiness does not exist, which means fish and chips cannot exist. And I for o

Met some friends this weekend, they were positive for covid19 yet still going out and hanging out with a group of friends. I was shocked and upset. I asked about work, they work in retail and are customer facing and said they have to go into work even if they have covid19 as long as they don't have major obvious symptoms (fever).
Maybe I live in a bubble, is this normal mid-2024? Is it basically the flu where if you have a fever you isolate but once fever passes and one is functional, life returns to normal?

Title: New misinformation worth knowing about: "it's not long covid it's Lyme"
Text:Lyme disease is similar to long covid and ME/CFS. It causes serious disability. It's caused by a group of bacteria and spread by ticks. The tick problem is getting worse, climate change means they're not dying off in winter and are spreading to colder climates. Any green space is a risk. You can get it from Central Park in New York. Richmond Park in London is a particular risk because it has deer.
Often Lyme is latent in the body. The person gets bitten by a tick but their immune system is able to fight off the bacteria and they don't get sick. However in a big stressful event (like a covid infection) the bacteria can be become reactived and contribute to the long covid or other post viral illness.
People with Lyme are allies. They are also disabled, also historically neglected by the medical system. They're also not gonna get better if they keep catching covid. I recently learned I'm one of them, my long covid doc ran the tests for Lyme and found active replicating bacteria, I'm due to start antibiotics soon. Lyme is an example of why it's good to research all similar diseases and not only long covid.
Covid can make many pathogens reactivate. I also had reactivated EBV (glandu

Title: My niece will only eat cat-meat nuggets.
Text:Hey! Looking for some advice for other kid-friendly healthy meals. I've been looking after my niece lately (She's nearly 3!) and have noticed that the only food she enjoys is nuggets made from cat-meat.
My go-to healthy meal for her is cat-meat nuggets, chips and cat milk. I make sure she eats plenty of cat-meat since she's still growing. Cat-milk too for calcium. However, I'm getting bored of nuggets. What other cat based meals can I make that'd be child friendly? I'm losing my mind and obviously prefer a steak cut from a nugget... However, I don't think the wee one has a refined enough palette for that yet!

Text:How do they target you from hundreds, sometimes thousands of miles away? I mean the science behind it. How does a device, call it v2k, or sound wave / electromagnetic attacks, or RNM, target someone from so far.
And how do they constantly do it even on an airplane. How does it work.

Title: Nasal spray prevention of COVID study
Text:In the past I've not been super impressed with the nasal spray research quality/quantity.
However, I was pleased to see this one on iota carrageenan.
It's a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study assessing the use of a nasal spray containing I-C in the prophylaxis of COVID-19 in hospital personnel dedicated to care of COVID-19 patients. Clinically healthy health care providers managing patients hospitalized for COVID-19 were assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive four daily doses of I-C spray, or placebo, for 21 days.
The conclusion is that the I-C spray group had a *significantly* lower risk than the placebo group of getting COVID.
I would absolutely never use only a nasal spray, but using this one as part of my mitigation strategy is something that I will continue doing!

Title: Exposed yesterday and freaking out.
Text:I am f66, always masked, limit exposure, zero covid. I saw a orthopedic specialist yesterday around lunchtime in a ortho only clinic. I was there for about 1 1/2 hours and wore an N95, that I had used a little, so not brand new. I just got a call this morning from their office that he tested positive yesterday after work. There were also two other workers potentially with it.
I'm so scared. No one wore a mask, not doctors, nurses, or patients. I'm the only one masked anywhere I go, since I live in a area headline-making for lowest nationwide vaccination rates. My regular doctor doesn't even prescribe paxlovid.
Now, I don't know what to do. My last vaccine was in late May. I'm type 2 diabetic, overweight, and have asthma. I just recovered from a very sore throat and bad lung congestion and was on a z-pack and Mucinex (negative for flu, strep, and covid, twice) and don't know if that would impact a Covid infection.
I lost so many family members and friends in 2021. Is there any chance I'm okay? Is there anything I can do now? I'm so scared. I feel like I'm waiting on my death sentence.
Update: Thank you all for your kind comments and suggestions. My delivery order has arri

Title: PSA concerning putting off routine appointments.
Text:Like so many of you, my household has been skipping unnecessary appointments, especially when Covid numbers are higher. We thought we were doing the smart thing - in fact, we did this pre-Covid as well, avoiding doctors and high traffic areas during cold & flu season.
Well, now that one member of the household is on Medicare*, his doctor requires him to get a routine yearly physical and he can't put it off even though he feels healthy and fine. He went in July, got his pre-appointment labs done...and his white blood cells were practically non-existent. *He was at such a high risk of infection that it literally takes my breath away to think of it.* And yet he had (has) zero symptoms.
After many weeks of tests and appointments and stress, he's officially been diagnosed with a rare form of bone marrow cancer. Had he not gone to that routine appointment, I'm not sure he would be alive right now. And had he not been taking Covid precautions all this time...well, I can't even think on that.
So this is my PSA to this community, to continue being cautious but not to put off your yearly labs and appointments, even if you feel fine.

Title: The recurring theme in movies of four lead heros taking on evil
Text:https://preview.redd.it/rtn9823eq7ld1.png?width=750&format=png&auto=webp&s=2d4fc7f2760bb91ba97a3946b753af26a7f35495
There’s an unusual recurring theme in TV shows and movies of four heros defeating evil. Some of these examples include Ghostbusters, Suicide Squad (from 2016), Thor Love and Thunder, Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles, Fantastic 4, Wizard of Oz, and The Four Musketeers. Why always four heros? What do they represent? One possibility is that these four heros might represent the four archangles. The four most depicted in art are: Gabriel, the messenger of God; Michael, the dispenser of justice; Raphael, the healer and protector of travellers; and Uriel, the angel of prophecy and wisdom. We possibly see this inspiration in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT) where some of the characters take their names from the four archangles. TMNT follows Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael and Michelangelo, four anthropomorphic turtle brothers who fight evil, and at least two names are taken from the four archangels, suggesting a connection. The four heros may also represent the Four Horsemen. While most interpretations of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse depict them as harbingers of destru

Title: Egyptian Goddess Isis, Belgium and President Hoover
Text:Recently, drove through Iowa on I-80 and the fam needed to stop for a break. What better place than small town West Branch, birthplace of President Herbert Hoover!
The site is managed by the National Park Service and sits on 100+ acres. Some of the "original" town has been preserved. Think middle school trip to old timey pioneer days.
All of this is as you'd expect except for one glaring outlier; a statue of Egyptian Goddess of Life, Isis, made by Belgians and given to Hoover as a thank you for sending food relief to them during WWI.
The image of the park sign shows an oversized white cube pedestal which appears to be gray concrete now sunken into the ground. It no longer looks like a cube, but if it is original it is.
The figure sits on a throne which rests on top of the disk of the zodiac. The front shows words in what I think are French. Everything is bronze.
The map of the park says the statue was originally set up at Standford University where Hoover went to college, but the plaque on the front says it was presented for this park in Iowa. I'm not sure about the disconnect here.
Can anyone translate the French?

Title: So what would people actually do, with a BCI that could give them new data to the mind?
Text:Pictured is one of the DIY devices I've been making as a hobby, a "sensory weaver", which has a grid of haptic feedback motors and some modular slots for different uses (as well as wireless capability). Currently testing 8x8 thermal data down to 4x5 haptic grid, with some basic filtering/logic so it isn't nonstop vs meaningful information.
Devices in research labs do this already using sensory substitution, expansion/addition concepts, using video to audio or audio to haptics, giving people magnetic north sense, thermal sensing and more. Some companies even make products for basic usage - neosensory for one, who does great work for hard of hearing (and supposedly has 70+ things in the works). This sort of concept has been around since the 60s, so it is pretty sound - just much easier to DIY nowadays.
I've got a host of things to try, but curious what others might have interest in, if having a device able to reliably transpile information abstracts from outside normal biology continually into meaningful signals biology could pick up on.
What would people have, as sensory DLC? What abatract data might be useful as a qualia directly? Not just one sense at a time, but mixing/

Same idea with light that use chipsets .and they use magnetic bolts to amplify their magnetic effects and direct them aswell.
They can use their magnetic effect to instantly disassemble tools and technology. The magnetism also effects your metabolism and urinary tract drying your intestine making it almost impossible to pass stool. There were times it felt like they just pushed a button and I was able to pass stool

Title: Direct Energy Weapons utilized by Cherokee County, GA Gang Stalkers
Text:December 31, 2024, Ball Ground Georgia: Cherokee County Gang Stalkers continue assaults on my family and myself.
The direct energy weapons 300+ are 24/7 sending a lethal current and electromagnetic field into our home. The electrical currents have burnt my lower legs and feet, making ambulation difficult and painful. (see photo )
The gang stalkers also aim at the genitalia. My penis and upper thigh have the same burns as my feet.
The Direct Energy Weapons (DEW) require an electric transformer to operate
Our farm has transformers in trees all over our property. We contacted our electric company, and they came and removed two transformers but allowed dozens to remain. To add insult to our injuries. The Electricity utilized to assault us is stolen from our property, and the power consumption is added to our monthly electric invoice.
Since June 6, 2023, our electric bill has tripled. We are forced to pay. Our disputes have resulted in the disconnection of our Electricity for not paying the entire invoice, and then we have to pay reconnect fees and penalties.
We know who our gang stalkers are! The Joint Interagency Combined Space Operations Center (JICSpOC) orchestrates the operat

Title: Has anyone made their gangstalking stop?
Text:Has anyone made their gangstalking stop? How?
I recently watched a TikTok video where a woman claimed she made her gangstalking stop by following one of the stalkers home. I think this would be. agood way to identify them and make a list of their identities. But I don't think it would be a good idea to trespass while you do this, or be super obvious about it.
I've managed to make some specific people drop out a few times. Here are some methods that worked for me:
* **Insulting them**: One time, I repeatedly called a lady fat to her face, and she disappeared for a couple of years.
* **Threatening legal action**: Another guy backed off when I said to his face calmly that I was taking his picture, documenting his actions, and that I would personally sue him. But I said that to a lady stalker a couple of years later, and she was like OMG I'm calling the police!!!
* **Taking photos**: A couple of stalkers stopped bothering me simply because I took their picture. But that was a while back. I don' t think they back off as easily until you take three really good clear snapshots of them in broad daylight.
* **Stopped talking:** It used to be that they would start and stop their ac

I know the old “you can do everything you used to do, just do it in a mask!” type rhetoric is supposed to be supportive/empowering, but a lot of things I used to do that I “can” do in a mask still puts me in a group of people who aren’t masking and clearly don’t care. That’s what’s really getting to me.
I don’t have the energy in me anymore to pretend to be happy and casual around people who aren’t masking. I’m just pissed off. These days I don’t even want to be around most people.

Title: Targeted Solutions to Electronic Harrassment via Targeted Energy Weapons.
Text:Power Line Communication to Magnetic Field Communication (Near Field Communication)
The carrier signal may be different depending on the country we live in, but it is almost surely that it will be 128khz unless someone can prove otherwise.
But it's not important unless we wanted to inject a signal back into the power line from your home which is costly.
You are also not connected to the power line, your home is. So you are not a victim of torture through powerlines. You are a victim of torture through magnetic fields.
Let's focus on the perspective of ourselves, between us and the powerline, which is the magnetic field.
The grounding in your home and car needs to be checked by a professional. This is just for assurance and peace of mind.
Our homes are now, like an open telephone (always on).
Let me continue by saying, magnetic field communication and NFC are the same thing, or work the same way. This doesn't mean that it is the same frequency as NFC.
But we have been brain tagged and information is being forcefully exchanged.
I cannot confirm this just yet, but an RFID jammer would be the correct jammer to invest in.

I'm immunocompromised since before covid, I have a chronic illness and I just had covid in July which resulted in long covid. I decided to take an opportunity and travel for work. I do quite little otherwise, I'm at home and I'm pretty isolated. I have worn my 3m aura the entire time, but with some moments where I stupidly lifted it to sip water. I'm staying with my in-laws and masking indoors with the windows open and an air purifier on.

Title: I made a panic box
Text:My anxiety has been really bad and I get panic attacks typically in the middle of the night. I get very anxious about not being able to sleep from insomnia. Sometimes I can also feel panic during the day. I find that during panic attacks, I just have no idea what to do. Like my brain turns off and all the coping skills I learned are inaccessible and feel impossible. I have been trying hard to get through it with mindfulness and acceptance but honestly during a really bad panic attack I just don't know how to do that right now.
So after a particularly bad panic attack and few days ago where I ended up going to the ER to check on my heart, I came up with the idea to make a box that has all kinds of ideas and comfort that I can go to during an attack. All the little pieces of paper have comforting reminders or ideas for things I can do to calm down. Some of the little papers are also from my boyfriend. I'm still gonna be adding to it and doing that helps too.

now i have access to sharper tools and better anatomical knowledge so i can go deeper without hitting anything major.
a few days ago i made around 20 cuts to mid-fat. i didn't take care of them properly. now most of them are infected pretty badly.
if the antibiotics don't work, I'll die. like definitely. and theres nothing i can fucking do but hope my body doesn't give out despite all the shit I've put it through.
im terrified. i didnt mean for this to happen, i didnt mean to go that deep or that much. I wasn't careful enough and it snowballed.
if you're looking for a reason to stop, let this be it. death by sepsis is a shitty way to go.

Title: Is eating meat ethical?
Text:Well, y'know, in teaching ethics, I find it important to first get people to understand why it is bad to push someone yet good to push someone out of the way of traffic. Reality is complex and different perspectives beget different moral boundaries, yet with this we can posit that there is objectivity in ethics in that there must be maxims or points of convergence at equilibriums of virtuous agency achieved in the measured systems.
John Nash of A Beautiful Mind fame proved mathematically that there exists a ratio of giving to the self n giving to the whole that maximizes both the growth of the self n the whole, demonstrating that Adam Smith's economics is incomplete. In this, I add to Nash's framework of a dominant strategy of love - the governing dynamics of the observable universe - that such calculations need to take into consideration additional boundaries built on superpositional logic; such as, protecting innocence, correcting karma, developing virtue, balancing agnetic supererogatory acts with self-care, etc.
So, it is very much the same game of utilitarian functionalism, but "utility" is defined by taking into consideration a multitude of descriptive dimensions to measur

Today I am over eight years sober. I was seventeen in the first photo. Second photo was a few months ago. I spent a year of my life consuming amphetamines on a daily basis and I loved it.

I felt like I could think- all the things in my life that I had procrastinated or gave myself excuses over- suddenly felt like simple tasks I can’t believe I ever complained about. It helped me learn, I studied things I loved like space and religion (at the time I planned on going to college for religious studies). I cleaned my house, I showered daily, I cooked for my family.

Title: Hegel's method, explained
Text:Hi, I would be happy to explain Hegel's method to you!
Hegel thought everything in the universe happens according to the following simple five step pattern: 1. thesis, 2. osmosis, 3. synthesis, 4. antithesis, 5. metamorphosis.
An example of how Hegel's method works is his famous master-slave dialectic. In the thesis, the master asserts their will over the slave. In the osmosis step, the relationship of enslavement seeps into the master's subconscious and he now possesses slave characteristics. Because the master is now both master and slave, the slave's identity is destabilized as there is no clear mastery over them. In this crucial moment the slave exercises their will to power to become their own master, synthesizing within themselves both mastery and slavery. This leads to the antithesis between what are now two master-slaves struggling for power over the other. This can only be resolved in a radical metamorphosis where each, metaphorically speaking, wakes up one morning to find themselves transformed by the incessant fight for survival, leading each to alienation from the other where each now needs to assert their own thesis against someone else, renewing the cycle.

I don't understand. Why?
As someone within range of that description, I very much *am* compelled because:

* The tons of research we have by now, showing that COVID lingers in the bloodstream and organs, even bonemarrow, and damages organs including the brain, eyes, heart, and other things I really need to funtion well. Bleeding blood vessels in the brain? No fucking thanks.
* I know young people IRL with long covid and do *not* fucking want it.

Title: People are becoming dumber at an alarming rate.
Text:I don't know if this would really be considered a conspiracy theory or just an observation of reality. This post was inspired by a lady in the Wendy's drive-thru. She was throwing a fit because Apple Pay wasn't working for her. After she got her feed bag, she pulled up approximately 2 feet and stopped. Completely blocking access from anyone else reaching the drive-thru window. I assume she was doing a complete audit on each individual fry. She sat there for 10 minutes with everyone honking. Even the workers were yelling at her to move. She ignored all of it. Since witnessing that, it got me really brainstorming about what the hell is going on with society in general.
Modern society seems to be losing common sense. People rely too much on technology for everyday tasks, which seem to reduce their problem-solving skills. The internet gives us too much information, making it hard to tell what’s true and what’s not. Schools often focus on tests rather than teaching practical life skills. Social media promotes sensational content instead of thoughtful conversations, and people interact less face-to-face, which is important for developing social skills and empathy.

Armbrust American literally sent this out today about Covid being at a two-year high in terms of wastewater signaling. Armbrust sell masks and other PPE and I have no business relationship whatsoever except as a customer on their email list who occasionally buys.
They send out warnings every time Covid increases. If only the CDC another public health agencies would actually be responsible and do this, yes?
A PPE company is giving us more warnings than our CDC in the United States.
I don't care if the ultimate goal is to drive business their way. They aren't fear mongering, they are relying on literal data and warning their customers , which is more than the CDC is doing for us.

Title: Agoraphobia from realism
Text:I previously was immunocompromised and did not leave my house (at all except handful of medical reasons) between 2020 and late 2021. I built up my confidence again and have been going out in outdoor public areas a decent amount (always KN95 masked or recently a Flo Mask). I always mitigate my risk, I test multiple times a week.
The only time I got COVID the whole pandemic so far is when I had to be on oxygen in an ambulance on the way to a hospital in 2022.
My work has an event in another city and I want to go because it helps with career progression/I don’t want to be left out on opportunities. I didn’t realize how bad it is. How stupid and selfish people can be in even more high risk situations and it makes me question what I’m even doing in normal day to day life.
I got to the airport and the security line was pretty full. I was wearing my Flo Mask with a Pro filter and tightened it more than I even normally wear it. I noticed nobody was wearing K/N95 masks and there was a single person wearing a surgical mask.
Literally moments later, a couple a few people ahead of me saw a different couple they knew and they started talking and the other people asked “how are you?” And th

Title: Anti-Natalism, Ecology and the AI apocalypse: a defense
Text:It has been argued at least since Nietzsche that human life is mostly suffering. We are in the constant discomfort of desire: if we want something we don't have it leaves us dissatisfied; if we get what we want, we soon get bored and wish for something else. This is suffering and inevitable.
As Lacan would say, the small object a of our desires is then externalized and we seek always something beyond us, lying in the inaccessible noumenal world of the Real, while we remain unable to think beyond our symbolic order. The result of this cognitive dissonance leads to the death drive of self destruction. We wish infinite growth of the economy, of pleasure, of things. But this infinite growth is at odds with the finite material realm. The result, as predicted by Marx, is environmental collapse, once the limit of our material means is reached.
But as Hegel would say, from this contradiction between our self destructive infinite desires and the finitude of our resources, there is a sublation in the form of the absolute technology: AI. By creating an artificial subject that is incapable of desiring while having access to the collective knowledge of all possible human desires, an AI agent

Title: How many people in music & entertainment knew about this?
Text:In bombshell allegations, an additional 120 victims have come forward to accuse rapper Sean 'Diddy' Combs of sex abuse over a span of 25 years, with several underage victims, including a 9-year-old, among them.
The claims where made by Texas lawyer Tony Buzbee who announced he's representing 120 new victims who he believes have legitimate cases against the rapper turned media mogul.
Of the 120 new victims, 25 were underage when the alleged abuse happened between 1991 and as recently as this year, Buzbee revealed.
The youngest victims were 9, 14, 15 when they were victimized, the high-profile lawyer announced at a press conference in Houston Tuesday.
'This individual, who was 9 years old at the time, was taken to an audition in New York City with Bad Boy Records,' the attorney disclosed.
'This individual was sexually abused allegedly by Sean Combs and several other people at the studio in the promise to both his parents and to him himself of getting a record deal.' - [**Source**](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/texas/article-13912945/amp/Diddy-accused-abusing-nine-year-old-boy-spiking-drinks-horse-tranquilizer-120-victims-come-forward-shocking-claims.html)

Title: Justin Bieber
Text:As a 34-year-old woman who’s watched Justin Bieber grow up, I’ve always felt there was something strange going on in the industry, especially with him. Over the years, I’ve seen countless videos of other celebrities groping him, making inappropriate comments, and even the controversy around his music video “Yummy.” It makes you wonder what he’s been through.
With all this stuff about Diddy coming out, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Do you think there will be any justice for Justin? I’m not saying he’s innocent—he’s probably made some bad choices too—but it feels like he was groomed from such a young age.

Title: The Problem of Induction
Text:1. Prior Experience is the only way to know things
2. Prior Experience cannot know the future
3. We cannot know the future
That means that we cannot know if in the future his argument is sound, because it could be wrong in the future. And if I am wrong now, you cannot say I am wrong in the future, because only your prior experience can tell you that, now. And not in the future.
"oh, but this is deductive logic" says who? Your prior experience learning about inductive logic? That would imply his argument is sound though, but only now. Not in the future.

Title: Would I be weird for wearing a mask inside my home?
Text:I’m living with my parents right now due to chronic health issues, and they’re getting back from a week-long trip today that involved normal vacation stuff: visiting family, sightseeing, and eating at restaurants without a mask.
They’re due home in a few hours, and I’m trying to figure out my game plan for when they get back. I have a levoit air purifier I plan on running in my room to keep it a “safe” zone, but for common areas like the kitchen and bathroom, I’m debating on if I should mask up with an N95.
I’d imagine doing so would at least reduce my viral load, if not help me avoid infection altogether, if they were to bring home covid. But, the thought of masking in my own home feels goofy, and I know my parents would give me a lot of flack for it.
Typing all of this out, it feels obvious that the answer is to mask lol. I guess I’m just looking for some support and reassurance from other people who have been in a similar situation that masking is the right thing to do here, especially since covid would almost certainly destroy the little health I have remaining.
Edit: ty everyone for the nice replies and solidarity. Will def be masking at home for the foreseeable

Title: All humans have ABSOLUTELY free will, we just forgot about it
Text:I don't understand why philosophers even debate whether we have free will or not. It's obvious that anyone can do absolutely anything at any time. I can form up a cube made of obsidian in my hand right now just like a normal person. I can explode and put myself back together within seconds (obviously). I can do 78 lines of coke and instantly go to sleep because I am a normal, healthy human being. You can't create matter out of nothing? You can't be a self-caused first cause acting *ex nihilo* bringing stuff into existence out of nothingness whenever you will? Well, then there's something wrong with you. It's normal for humans to be able to do this, so you should go check with your local philosopher-doctor asap.
I am shocked at how few people know that this is the normal, healthy state of a human being. We have grown so accustomed to degeneracy we have forgotten that we are literally gods.

Title: the truth of new porn fetishes
Text:For those who are unaware, a bunch of new fetishes seem to be appearing recently, such as "gooning", "sissy hypnosis", and more recently ive found something called "bunny play hypnosis". its my belief that these fetishes are being used as a platform to weaken and corrupt the viewers.
to start with "gooning", the goal is to masturbate to the point of being braindead and often times people who do this will look at porn images with captions persuading addiction and lowering self esteem. an example of this would be a caption saying: "goon your life away, addict" this is detrimental to the mental health of people who do it as well as encouraging self destructive behavior
next, "sissy hypnosis" is the use of hypnosis files, often audio, to access the listeners subconscious mind and consists of suggestions of becoming a transgender and "living to serve a master". while the subconscious mind is vulnerable these audio files will also manipulate dopamine receptors into firing at their will, like pavlov's dog, further persuading addiction.
finally what I've stumbled upon is "bunny play", which disguises itself as anxiety relief hypnosis but within the audio files is persuading the listener

Title: Bay Leaves Do Nothing
Text:For years, the bay leaf Industry has seemingly orchestrated an elaborate scheme to keep Bay Leaves in the culinary limelight despite their questionable contribution to a dish's flavor.
This conspiracy might be spearheaded by a powerful alliance of bay leaf growers and distributors and likely involves incentivizing prominent cookbook authors and chefs to perpetuate the bay leaf myth. Look up how many recipes recommend tossing in a couple of bay leaves for "depth." They're everywhere. And we just do it. We superstitiously toss them in and keep buying more jars of bay leaves, even though we privately know they have no measurable impact on the dish's flavor. And we're afraid to say that out loud! Well, here I am folks, saying out loud what we all know to be true but are afraid to admit to other people: *Bay Leaves do nothing!*
This could be due to a cabal of bay leaf families getting rich off this stuff. But could the truth be even darker? Could this be a psyop? Could the government be using Bay Leaf sales to measure a population's gullibility and compliance?
In case I've hit on something here, I just want to make clear that I would never kill myself.

Title: House Freedom Caucus Submits Legislation To Abolish The Medal of Honor, Following Trump’s Latest Rally.

The proposed legislation abolishes the Medal of Honor retroactively and moving forward. All awards will be stricken from the public and soldiers records. All awarded medals are to be collected, melted down, and recast as the Donald Trump Freedom Warrior Bust.

Title: radio announcer practically brags about spreading Covid
Text:Gloria Macarenko, in a very chirpy voice on the local CBC Radio afternoon show today:
"I got back from holiday last week just in time to test positive for Covid. I think I got it in Europe though because my sister-in-law in Spain had it too. I was all achy and stuff."
So. So she vacationed without being safe, hung out with family without being safe, flew *with Covid* without being safe, got back home sick, and went back to work with the remnants of Covid, still not safe? And now she's *bragging* about it?! Or at least not being ashamed or using her story as a cautionary one? Great. Just f\*cking great.
