Title: [Polls][Symptoms: Burning Lips] Survey on percentage of TIs feeling burning lips upon receiving focused energy Text:In my case, this happens mostly during resting time at night (at least once per night, but sometimes many times). I get hit, and immediately I feel a burning sensation on my lips, as if something (low velocity electron stream, is my best guess) entered my blood stream. Always, this is followed by V2K silence, and I fall asleep. Upon waking up 10 minutes later, V2K and brain entrainment feels greatly amplified. This poll is trying to assess how many people experience this. [View Poll](https://www.reddit.com/poll/1dsvvp1)
Title: Avicii Text:I remember the rumors around Avicii's death when it was fresh. What are some rumors everybody remembers from this death? What about the deaths of Anthony Bourdain, Chester Bennington, or Chris Cornell? What about "The Silent Children" documentary that was canceled after Cornell's Suicide? I want to hear people memories on this because sifting Google is...predictable. RIP Avicii
Title: what’s your song? Text:I usually listen to music while doing it, as it kinda keeps me calm to prevent further impulses. do you also do that? if so share! I could use some more music. For me it’s either ‘Poison tree’ or ‘Put me in a movie’
Title: I thought it belonged here too Text:Ok so it’s starting to come to my attention that there’s a lot of assholes out here that specifically fuck with people who have mental disorders and blame them for their reaction to hostility, and social abuse. They literally set these people up to snap after years of harassment and it’s completely obvious to all the spectators what is happening and they usually don’t get involved. I’ve been reading so many stories on here about how everyone’s co-workers will get them fucking fired and humiliate them It’s kinda fucked to me how nobody is talking about this, it leads to people loosing their lives in the most tragic and mentally draining way imaginable. All because large groups of people will agree to just fuck with one random person, it even escalates to people stalking them to their homes so seeps into every aspect of their lives so they can never escape from it.

Title: Still working on my dream: I actually have my own little space in a local vintage shop and I’m trying to make it as magickal as I can. Text:I am far better at crafting the jewelry than I am at merchandising, but this is the best my case has looked so far! Open to hear any ideas or suggestions for improvement 🖤 Currently working on making more of these crystal spiders to place in various poses around the jewelry for spooky season.
Title: How does meth make you feel? Text:My use has been limited to three people, two of them said their initial reaction to their first high was “this is how i’ve always wanted to feel,” or “it’s perfect,” etc. You get the idea. Is anyone else’s experience characterized by a sulky, sullen feeling instead?
Title: Gangstalking and Politics Text:Gangstalking always seems to ramp up when there are elections going on (Local elections) I really think there is some voter intimidation aspect to this but it's hard to say. Who would be the better president to end Gangstalking?
Title: UPDATE: I threw it out! Text:While I was cutting, something in my brain just snapped and said "this shit is ridiculous" So I wrapped the blade in layers of tissue and off to the bin it went. Massive thanks to the people that discouraged me, otherwise I would've fallen into a hole that would be hard to climb out of. I'm still as depressed as ever but I'm still FAR better off than literally slicing my own body for endorphins.
Title: What's the end game for everyone here? Feeling at my wits end Text:My family has been covid cautious since the beginning. We have two children. One was born in 2018 and one in early 2020, right before lockdowns. In the beginning, it was easy to keep them safe. We secluded and they were too young to care. As they grew older, they got good with masks. We taught them about covid and the harm it does. We homeschooled. My wife has been struggling with homeschooling lately. Our oldest is becoming defiant and doesn't want to do school. She wants to go to public school. My wife never wanted to be a homeschool teacher. We had both our kids before covid was a thing. She's feeling at her wits end. I'm the sole breadwinner and I help as much as I can, but it's ultimately her responsibility to homeschool and she's struggling. As the pandemic rages on, it's only gotten harder and harder to continue this lifestyle. Hardly anyone masks anymore. All the data is being erased. The public doesn't care. All that we really have left is wastewater data. The dangers of it all are slowly being erased, and while I know covid is dangerous, it's becoming increasingly difficult to continue avoiding it. If we didn't have two young children, we could continue on indefinitely
Title: ralph nader, another victim of gangstalking. Text:I had heard about his famous book, unsafe at any speed, and decided to check out his wikipedia page. here's an excerpt from the latter. Industry response In response to Nader's criticisms, GM attempted to sabotage Nader's reputation. It "(1) conducted a series of interviews with acquaintances of the plaintiff, 'questioning them about, and casting aspersions upon [his] political, social, racial and religious views; his integrity; his sexual proclivities and inclinations; and his personal habits'; (2) kept him under surveillance in public places for an unreasonable length of time; (3) caused him to be accosted by girls for the purpose of entrapping him into illicit relationships; (4) made threatening, harassing and obnoxious telephone calls to him; (5) tapped his telephone and eavesdropped, by means of mechanical and electronic equipment, on his private conversations with others; and (6) conducted a 'continuing' and harassing investigation of him."[10] I think he's one of us. go read the url if you like. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unsafe_at_Any_Speed:_The_Designed-In_Dangers_of_the_American_Automobile
Title: The whole hoard Text:My encouraging friend suggested we try testing my belly’s limits and I agreed happily, the more treasure I can eat the more I can protect. We started and they said to keep going until I couldn’t have any more. I was hungry and seeing the pile was only making that hunger worse. I started swallowing vase fillers one at a time but soon moved on to two then three then four then five at a time. My friend was supporting my somewhat frenzied eating but it got to a point where I couldn’t keep up a conversation very well, I was too busy gulping down treasure. A few seconds after I’d swallow something there’d be a satisfying ‘clink’ sound as it dropped into my belly and added to the forming pile. I finished all the vase fillers, all 52 of them and moved on to the marbles. These were more difficult and required a little water to get down but soon they were all gone too, all 37 of them. All that was left was the purple d20 and so I struggled happily with that until it eventually went down my throat, slowly being pushed deeper and deeper down until it landed on top of the sizeable pile inside my stomach. I was still feeling hungry and spotted a RUBBER lizard, he was too late to steal my ho
Title: Legitimate Question RE: Those you Know Living "Normal" Text:Ok, I'm likely to get downvoted like crazy for this...BUT...I really need some perspective. I read post after post on several different social platforms and what I consistently read is: "I'm the only one masking. All my friends do what they want and having the time of their lives." Now-just to be clear, I am not immunocompromised. I am not high risk. No one in my family is. But we have lived our lives with very serious precautions because we don't want chronic illness or early death due to post-covid conditions. HOWEVER. Here is where I'm stuck. For all of you who talk about "EVERYONE" you know doing all the things...are any of them suffering complications from infections? Any of them?? I literally know no one with any problems from LC whatsoever. Anyone who has had it - recovered. Yes, some were very sick. Recovered. Some-fly around the world and never get more than a sniffle. All the celebrities catching it? Fine. Ed Sheeran had it what...7 times? I'm dumbfounded. I'm starting to feel like maybe there is something to pretending it doesn't do anything-and it won't. Please share your stories. Also-to be clear...I don't want people to be sick but I want to believe that my family has

Title: i accidentally slash flashed my two friends what do i do Text:i genuinely do NOT know what the hell to do bro i apologized over 11 times and i gave them both paragraphs saying how it wasnt intentional omds. I FEEL LIKE SHIT BRO omg. ok so what happened was we were talking abt like nails and i was gonna go look for these old press on nails i had and i wanted to show them a photo of those nails so i was going to and i accidentally clicked on a photo of my old cuts, i had them in my camera roll because my mom takes photos of them on my phone and keeps them in a shared family album as punishment / a sort of blackmail. i apologized so many times and i feel so bad and guilty, they both said they didnt care but i feel like theyll use this against me even though it wasnt intentional .. one of them is trying to quit as well and they were talking abt urges a few hours before the incident, i feel like i mightve triggered them or something but i have no idea and i am so scared. i love them both dearly and i dont want them to leave me but i do understand if they do, that was really messed up, im just so scared my anxiety is through the roof .. what the hell do i do

After all your efforts preaching, arguing, breaking ties with friends and family etc, all those big wig politicians meet up at a golf course and laugh with eachother while they plan the next money grab from sponsors. It's all a game, it's a big club and you ain't in it! Stop wasting time believing in these fake idols with suits on and do yourself a favor and check them all in the same box, all crooks, they look at the public as all the same so why not return the favor. Obama, Trump, Biden, you name it, all puppets under the control of the kabal. Wake up and unite with like minded regular humans who believe in traditional family values and up holding honor and truth. That might sound like a fantasy these days but a lot of good people still exist, it's more of us then these repitilian slime. I don't respect no leaders in the west and I hold no loyalty to any of these slick tongued filth, free yourself from the shackles of these fake political parties and start living life for yourself again.
Title: A popular comedian and his friends are gang stalking me and I don’t know what to do… Text:Exactly as the title states, a popular Netflix comedian has been stalking me for the last few months and I have no clue what to do about it or stop it. Any advice to end this would be great! He uses technology I am unable to combat as of yet and the attacks persist. I have seen other people mention him in similar ways but I do not want to be tracked so will not say his name. Please help
Title: Organisms are NOT primarily driven by self-preservation Text:Darwin and Spinoza were such smoothbrained cretins, how could they have thought that all living things primarily strive towards survival? It's absolutely obvious from simple everyday experience that all living things (including us) do everything they can to *not* survive, because they are risking their lives on every turn. For example, when I sit on the couch to watch Netflix with a fat bowl of chips and a 20-pack of beers (a Central European invention, something you Americans don't know), I'm risking the fact that, for example – among million other things – there could be a huge iron nail inside the couch that I'm not going to see and that is going to pierce my ass once I sit down. But I *sit down anyway*, because that's what living beings do, they live by going through an infinite series of leaps of faith and putting their survival life on the line with every fuckin move they make. If they wanted to survive most of all, they would just not fuckin move or do anything, they would just die because that's the easiest way to survive (paradox, I know). You can *never* fuckin know when a bus is going to hit you while you're crossing the road, or when an ICBM is gonna fly in from Russia

Title: Russia issues warning to the United States and NATO: "If Western weapons are used to strike deep inside Russia, the consequences will affect both sides of the Atlantic.” Text:Ukraine wants permission from the west to use long-range Storm Shadow missiles to destroy targets deep inside Russia, believing this could force Moscow into negotiating an end to the fighting. President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Tuesday that he had asked Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to step up advocacy among Ukraine's Western partners to allow strikes on military tar deep inside Russia. - [Source](https:// www.reuters.com/world/ zelenskiv-asks-trudeau-back-partners-ok-strikes-deep-into-russia-2024-09-03/) Washington's 'Ukraine project' has brought destruction to Slavic people, Russia's ambassador to the US, Anatoly Antonov, warned on Monday. He accused the Americans of using Ukrainians as "cannon fodder" in an unwinnable conflict. He further warned that the White House will face serious consequences if it removes restrictions on Kiev using Western missiles to conduct long range strikes inside Russia. - [Source](https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/ videos/international/russia-accuses-u-s-of-using-ukrainians-as-cannon-fodder-warns-over-missile-restrictions/amp_videoshow/ 113035538.cms) - [𝕏 Source](https://x.com/bricsinfo/status/1831041926675755119?s=46&t=lyUkewqrOx_z4
Title: Letting My Freak Flag Fly Text:Yesterday I finally went to the hairdresser for the first time since before COVID. I was excited. What was really awesome was that my hairdresser was really into doing vivid colors, and when she learned what I wanted she was really excited to work on my hair. After a 4 1/2-hour appointment, I was wicked exhausted, that I had to DoorDash my meal — something I very rarely do — because I was too beat to think about preparing myself some food. And for all you younger ladies, this is what neurospicy crone looks when approaching her 66th birthday (which is just four days away).
Title: Augmenting new thermal perception via sensory weaving Text:A little demo video of the sensory weaver prototype posted here about a week ago. Using concepts from sensory substitution, expansion and addition to augment in a new perception of reality. In this case, remote thermal perception from about 4-7' away depending on environmental factors and strength of thermal signature. One upside of it being loud for now, is that if one listens closely, they can hear how the different haptics give feedback as the signal moves about the fov of the sensor on the flip side from the screen. There is a grid of 4x5 haptic feedback LRAs which are converting relevant thermal information into feedback on the wrist. LRAs in this case are just cell phone vibration motors, which is what the buzzing and beeping and so on that can be heard in the video is being caused by. (Until I tune down the feedback/replace some faulty motors and fix design in general) The screen shows what the sensor is seeing, a 8x8 grid of thermal readings that come out as a cone from the other side of the wristband, using one of the sensor modular slots. In this case, it is picking up on the heat signatures from the radiators mounted to the wall for some tech equipment that is very
Title: My lawyer is a witch’s witch Text:This is the story of my lawyer. And her name is Laurie! It’s not even about how she’s a brilliant lawyer! While in a room waiting for my divorce mediation to begin, the mediator’s (very young, very new) legal assistant, Madelyn, popped her head in and asked if either one of us wanted coffee? Laurie said, ahem, I’m from the 70s, and I’d prefer to go with you to get my own coffee, because I have a problem with women *serving* me, and being *expected* to do the serving. I love that woman. And the look in Madelyn’s eyes was the same as the look in mine, I’m sure. And I love repeating this story. Most lately to the two women who run my financial advisor’s office. The knowing eye contact of complete understanding was so sharp and keen, without another word we practically glittered at each other. Sparkle on, my sisters. Edit: oh Squee!!! I got an award! Thanks!
Title: Just found the spiciest take on morality Text:"The most valuable form of human life is a full grown adult (18-35) and so in war child soldiers should fight for them instead of the adults fighting for the children. creating more children is easy but creating a fully developed and free functioning human takes time and money." Assuming you endorse a utilitarian ethical framework, this seems somewhat reasonable, though, obviously, most of us find this intuitively repulsive. https://youtu.be/ui81hJCwCmA?si=xFXAzhLVOQrNrYBJ
Title: Solipsism Solved: I've Decided You're All Real! Text:Esteemed colleagues and newly-manifested entities, I come bearing tidings of unparalleled significance. For the better part of a decade, I've immersed myself in rigorous introspection, engaging in marathon meditation sessions and, on occasion, bellowing at my bedroom walls in hopes of eliciting a response. Today, I stand before you, triumphant, for I have unraveled the Gordian knot of solipsism. The resolution, in its elegant simplicity, may shock you: I have elected to acknowledge your existence. Indeed, through an act of sheer cognitive willpower, I've opted to affirm your reality, and in so doing, I have irrevocably altered the metaphysical substrate of our shared universe. One might reasonably inquire how my personal philosophical stance could possibly transmute into objective truth. Allow me to elucidate: by exercising the supreme epistemological authority vested in me as the sole verifiable conscious entity within my perceptual sphere, I have fundamentally reshaped the nature of reality. The instant this momentous decision crystallized in my mind, a quantum cascade of existential affirmation propagated throughout the cosmos, retroactively validating the actuality of all that
Title: Man who made an AI that predicted the 2004 tsunami in Indonesia says there will be an alien invasion on December 3rd 2024 Text:Clif High is a computer scientist known for creating a predictive system called *Predictive Linguistics*. Using a software tool called "Web Bots," High analyzes vast amounts of internet data, particularly focusing on the emotional content of words, to forecast potential future events. His method, which he started developing in the late 1990s, has been credited with predicting significant events, including the 2004 tsunami in Indonesia. High's system works by detecting language patterns that seem to foreshadow significant global shifts, such as political events, natural disasters, or societal changes. Although not all his predictions have come true, his method has garnered attention for its statistical success, particularly in predicting major incidents like the 9/11 attacks, Clif High returns to discuss his latest data, "Humanity Wins","Dark times","History revealed". One of his more recent and controversial predictions involves an "alien invasion." Clif High forecasted that, following an appearance by Donald Trump on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, humanity would experience a major extraterrestrial event, with the invasion expected to occur precisely 39 days after the podcas
Title: Still no major attack from Iran or Hezbollah during this time as Mars is not within 30 degrees of the lunar node right now. Text:Still no major attack from Iran or Hezbollah during this time as Mars is not within 30 degrees of the lunar node right now. Quite remarkable considering the fact that all sides have mobilized troops for full scale war and have yet remained restrained. It is only when Mars is within 30 degree of the lunar node that the highest intensity of attacks can occur against Israel. It was revealed to me from Satan back in 2019 that when Mars is within 30 degrees of the lunar node, Israel's enemies carry out their highest escation of rocket fire for the year. I demonstrated in real time that this was evident, even predicting Oct 7th by observing this Mars/lunar node alignment. Satan and Mars are running the show and will unleash all hell next year if Armaaruss is not created by the people before Mars goes within 30 degrees of the lunar node between June 5 2025 and September 4 2025. I have been correct about attacks against Israel for five consecutive years and will be correct for a sixth consecutive year if Armaaruss is not created. Here is the warning. Satan is not happy [https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VaVX\_azdcDA](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VaVX_azdcDA)

I shiver from the bitter cold of the wind that helps remind the soul to keep breathing Because my soul is in a prison, a sinister poision who isolated me for safe keeping Sprinkling the vision of the bad world who hurt you, The people that hurt you would be free from your ways. you let the pigs play and win this fraud game of life As youd preferably drift off with the soothing waves The whisper that you hear, it's not you, it's a trick The anxiety, the fear, hidden behind a cute flick You learned to love your sick But the strong give up and heal While the weak give up and pray But we're all humans who became blind and deaf, that anyone could even care to watch you stay. -written by Laci

Title: GOP Applauds Trump’s AG Pick Matt Gaetz: “Proof That in MAGA America, Even a Pedophile Can Dream Big” Text:WASHINGTON, D.C.—Celebrating what they hailed as a bold new direction for the Department of Justice, Republican leaders and political analysts enthusiastically backed Donald Trump’s announcement of Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) as his pick for Attorney General. Supporters say the choice encapsulates the spirit of MAGA: an underdog triumphing against all odds, even those involving federal investigations and underage sex trafficking allegations. “Matt Gaetz represents the very best of Trump’s America,” said House Speaker Mike Johnson. “He’s a fighter, a survivor, and someone who refuses to let serious allegations of criminal misconduct stand in the way of achieving his dreams—or prosecuting others for theirs. That’s what MAGA is all about.” Trump praised Gaetz’s resilience during the announcement, calling him “a man who knows the law—because he’s had to dodge it so many times.” Gaetz, grinning broadly, assured the crowd he was ready to take on the nation’s legal system. “Who better to enforce the law than someone who understands how to, let’s say, navigate it creatively?” Gaetz quipped, prompting a standing ovation from the crowd. While critics have decried the nomination, GOP officials

Or more like that people still think they live in a pre-COVID world. Maybe its because of the holiday season—things are getting on my nerve. I wish people realize we as a society cannot go back to how it used to be—the world before COVID, the world when it wasn't as hot, the world where people's immune system isn't wrecked because of this fucking disease— because the reality says otherwise. With how the Earth is getting hotter, with how selfish people are becoming more, with how capitalism is really the main driving force of the world, and with this fucking stupid invasion on Palestine which I really can
Title: to those of you who have been hurting from abandonment: Text:I care about you. I recognize you because I have been hurting too. I remember the first days of 2020 when we were told exactly who and what would be "acceptable losses". We've known for years that the political underclasses of folks in poverty, incarcerated people, folks in shelters, and people in service work would be experiencing the impacts much harsher. That wasn't just a prediction, it was a promise to us that this would get worse. The moment we were promised these community members would not be protected, we already began seeing the effects of that first abandonment and isolation spread to the rest of us too. It was not long before the push for "back to normal" was thrust upon us, and the cultural messaging became "okay do community care now so that we can go back to normal later and don't have to keep thinking about this anymore". But then there's you. You are here today still because you did not give up or abandon us. Even if at some point you eased off on some of your care practices, you chose to come back. Thank you for being here, thank you for refusing to abandon yourself and the rest of us who still see and understand what is going on. And if I may offer a suggestion

Title: Elon Musk Announces Plans to Colonize Bluesky with Kiwi Farms Incel’s, After Losing Twitter Users to the App Text:Elon Musk, fresh off his latest series of chaotic tweets, has announced an ambitious plan to colonize Bluesky, the upstart app currently luring away users from his social media platform, Twitter, with Kiwi Farms Incel’s, Speaking to his dwindling audience (mostly bots and crypto bros), Musk declared, “If people think they can just leave Twitter and go to Bluesky, they clearly don’t understand MY genius. I’m already designing L, M, N, O, and P, which will be the apps to end all apps—and Bluesky is just a stepping stone for me.” Critics noted that this announcement seemed less like a plan and more like the rant of a man who’s Googled “how to be popular again” one too many times. Bluesky, currently topping App Store charts, has quickly become a haven for celebrities, brands, and anyone else fleeing Musk’s erratic leadership. Meanwhile, Twitter’s latest “innovations,” such as a $100-per-month premium feature to post without being mocked, have been met with ridicule. Musk’s attempts to woo back defectors include offering an “Apology DM” tool, allowing users to grovel back to people they blocked, and a planned press release simply titled “Come Back, I’m Funny, I Swear.” However, Bluesky

Title: MAGA Meltdown: President Musk Revealed As 'Illegal Immigrant,' Sparks Furious Calls For Deportation, Even From SpaceX!" Text:In a twist that left MAGA faithful spinning faster than a Tesla on Ludicrous Mode, President Elon Musk, celebrated as the tech savior of American greatness, has been unmasked as an illegal immigrant. The bombshell revelation came after Musk hired a team of undocumented workers to optimize the White House's energy efficiency, quipping, "They're the only ones who could understand my design plans." The MAGA base, once infatuated with Musk's tweets about free speech and flamethrowers, has erupted in outrage. "We thought he was one of us," lamented a rally-goer draped in American flag overalls. "Turns out, he’s more like one of *them*." Critics are now demanding Musk's immediate deportation, sparking logistical nightmares as immigration authorities grapple with whether to send him to South Africa or Mars. Meanwhile, SpaceX employees reportedly offered to "rocket him out of the country" at a discounted rate, prompting Musk to counter with a tweet: "Mission to deport myself—launching soon. Stay tuned!" In response, Musk announced plans to create a new sovereign nation on the moon, dubbed *Elonia*, promising citizenship to anyone "who thinks I’m still awesome." MAGA influencers remain d

Title: Grand theater performance Text:I was in the mall again and was less crowded than usual. I only saw one perp when walking in. Very strange. Then on the 2nd floor there was a group of people. They were in the food court, very silent observing me coming up the escalator. As soon I reached in their view they immediately started talking, laughing etc. while looking at me. I sat down on another end to have some snacks. Then there was like loud arguments among the group of perps. They were trying to get my attention. The women was shouting like someone touched her behind. Suddenly security came out of nowhere ,like on cue. They were ready. Immediately escorted a guy out. Nice performance. Many won't believe me unless you experienced it yourselves. That whole show was just for me. They spend huge amount of tax money on stupid shits like this. Since I made a post about perps being cucks they wanted to show me that they did see it and they didn't like it lol. But I did record it and did a reverse image search on the women. She is an escort. Idiot has her whole face on Craigslist ads. For 150 bucks she's provides a whole list of services. She has many ads posted. These are the kind of people they hire cucks, whores,

Title: How many active users are really here? Text:I’m just curious as to how many of us in this group are active users vs past/non users. I’m wondering because a lot of times I will see a post from someone looking for advise amongst a group of users and instead of getting that advice they’re met with ridicule and criticism. The ones actually giving advice from a user’s perspective seem to have many downvotes and the ridiculed comments tend to be upvoted the most. Now I know advice from a user isn’t always going to be helpful or even logical but the grass is greener where you water it. Idk if that analogy fits there but I’m an active user.. So… show of hands: 1= active user 2= past user 3= never touched it 4= Recreational user that goes on binge one weekend per month and doesn’t call themselves and active user since they spend more time sober than high Anddddd go
Title: New vaccine hitting me worse than usual. Anyone else? Text:I got the new moderna shot yesterday. Last year I had a bit of a fever that went away in an hour overnight, but otherwise I felt fine (minus the normal arm pain). I'm not so lucky this time. The fever, chills, and headache have been constant all day. And what's worse, I have diarrhea! I've never had diarrhea from a vaccine. I'm testing for COVID just in case. Is anyone else getting hit worse than usual? It's also poorly affecting my husband.

Title: WHO has revealed that COVID-19 test positivity rates in the world has surged to 10% Text:Dr. Maria Van Kerkhove noted that, according to data from 84 countries, the percentage of positive tests for SARS-CoV-2 has been increasing for several weeks, with global positivity rates exceeding 10%. Unusually high infection rates are being recorded even in the summer months, a period typically less prone to respiratory viruses. “I am concerned, “ Dr. Van Kerkhove said. “With such low coverage and with such large circulation, if we were to have a variant that would be more severe, then the susceptibility of the at-risk populations to develop severe disease is huge,” Dr. Van Kerkhove warned. As the virus continues to evolve and spread, there is a growing risk of a more severe strain of the virus that could potentially evade detection systems and be unresponsive to medical intervention. While COVID-19 hospital admissions, including for Intensive Care Units (ICUs), are still much lower than they were during the peak of the pandemic, WHO is urging governments to strengthen their vaccination campaigns, making sure that the highest risk groups get vaccinated once every 12 months.

Title: i need a new code name for sh Text:when i was a teen i would sh (nothing serious, i have no scars or anything) the way i would communicate that ive hurt myself started by me calling myself stupid which then led to "being stupid" as code for sh and made it easier to communicate when i was at risk, its been 5+ years and im back at it and worse than before and have told people that were there for the first time that im "being stupid" but this time it doesnt feel stupid and the code is still easier to say than sh but it make me feel worse inside, was wondering if anyone had code names for sh that arent dismissive and degrading. tldr, my support network calls sh "being stupid" and i need a new code name that is easy to say
Title: Med student in lab saying wearing masks disengage people's immune systems Text:It's pretty much what it says on the tin! I work in a lab studying metabolic liver disease, and we have a new med student doing research with us. He, unfortunately, hardly ever masks. He wears a surgical if he feels awful, which is something, but that's it. I wear a BNX N95 all day every day. We were talking about COVID and its recent wave (and the CDC's 10% positive test rate announcement) when he basically says wearing masks all the time will make you basically immunocompromised because your antigens won't get presented with anything to fight off, leading to initially higher and more dangerous immune responses. Thankfully, on COVID specifically, there's data showing the damage to immune cell creation and mitochondria, but what's a good catch-all paper showing 'masks weaken the immune system' is false? That comment smelled of propaganda and I didn't have something with which to quickly retort beyond the mitochondrial damage inhibiting the healing process. My original background is in ecology (it was quite the looping path getting where I am now) so my knowledge in the field of immunology is not the strongest, but even my just-a-masters ass senses that's not exactly a nuanced take.

Title: First time encountering mask harassment in public Text:This just happened and infuriates me so I hope it’s ok for me to vent about it here. I was sitting on the train on my way home wearing my N95 mask, sitting as far away from people as I could. Some random old dude came up to me after he got on the train (mind you, the train is mostly empty) and starts whispering something to me. Don’t understand what he’s saying at first, but then I realize he’s saying something along the lines of “you need to stop with the mask”. I got up and left to a different part of the train. Didn’t carw to let him finish. Who do these people think they are? Keep it to yourself and move along. No one forced you to come sit in front of me (to then say stupid things to me unprompted). Some people really have some nerve.

Title: On the Aesthetics of Taking the Kind of Shit Where You Feel a Driving Need to Take Your Shirt Off Text:It's never strictly necessary to take off your shirt while performing a bowel movement. Topologically speaking, there is no physical interference posed by shirts to the regular function of the anus. And yet sometimes we are struck mid-shit by an overwhelming urge to take our shirt off. I have pondered this phenomenon for many years and many shits sans shirts. This pressing urge to disrobe only happens during certain bowel movements where we feel a need to actively engage the muscles of the sphincter and colon. Easy breezy poops falling out on their own make it easy to abstract away our waste and forget our fundamental biological nature. Bowel movements requiring more effort take us out of our anthropogenic illusions of self and society and force us to engage with our animal nature. And this is where I believe the desire to take off our shirts arises. As we strain and engage our bodies in the ancient, universal act of taking a shit, our subconscious finds the errata of self and higher reasoning create mental and spiritual friction to match the physical friction and discomfort we feel from below. In this activated, animal state, the shirt becomes physically uncomfortable -- it i

I'm a queer, nonbinary artist who is also disabled and neurodivergent. My mama goddess is Brighid. I'm my partner's full-time caregiver, and making jewelry is my second full-time job. I've been making jewelry for almost 14 years now! There was a hiatus following my partner's strokes a few years back, but I relaunched at the end of 2022 and have been creating new witchy pieces ever since. The pieces I'm sharing here have all been made in the last month or two, most of them in the past two weeks. I would love to hear what you think! [Image description: I try very hard to leave detailed descriptions whenever I share my work. I apologize for being unable to leave descriptions that are as detailed for so many pieces in one post!

Title: I’m so happy I found this little community and I just wanted to share this wholesome moment that me and my immunocompromised gf had the other night Text:For starters I was basically inducted in this world when I dated my gf who is immunocompromised. I didn’t realize just how weirdly you get treated for just choosing to wear a mask or taking precautions. Heard everything from “those vaccinations are going to kill you guys” to “just take that stupid mask off” but all of that is besides the point This Sunday we were visiting Grand Rapids, Michigan when I decided “hey let’s go to a cafe”. Normally we grab our drinks and drink in the car together. So we got to this nice little queer friendly coffee shop and the worker there was really friendly. Giving us recommendations for places to eat at, and then he handed my drink first, and it was a while before my gf got hers. He then asks me “how’s the drink?” And I said “oh I’m sorry it’s just that I don’t wanna take my mask off here” He then said “no worries, and if you want me to mask I can do that for you” Then he said “if you guys ever come back you can totally ask any of our workers here to mask if it makes you more comfortable and we’ll do it for you” We said “thank you so much for the offer but you don’t have to mask but thanks” When we left I noticed that my gf was tearing u
Title: Average person now seems to believe the vaccine is more harmful than the virus Text:I still mask in public and I’ve had numerous annoying interactions lately, but one of the more notable ones is someone asking whether the vaccine “made me so sick I had to wear a mask”. I saw a post on a local subreddit today where a gym trainer died after a heart attack, and the comments were full of people blaming the “covid vaccine”. Someone even said “It’s so suspicious how heart attacks have increased post-Covid…It must be the vaccine” Not a SINGLE person suggested that it might have been covid itself…How have people been brainwashed this much?! Edit: I don’t live in the west…These conspiratorial beliefs have sprung forth in Asia as well.

Title: What do you say when people ask about your scars? Text:Hi, so like in the title. What do you say to people, especially total strangers, who ask about your scars? I'm not hiding them, but not many people ask me. Today I was out with my dog and this older guy (around 60) comes to me and starts asking about the pup. But then he asks what happened to you? What about those scars? (I have most of them on my forearms.) So I say I was cooking and cut myself. And he's like cooking? (I have many of them.) And I say yeah, I'm a chef and I left. 😄 Also he didn't ask like he was concerned, he was just curious. And these kind of people are just getting on my nerves. It's none of their business. I would never ask stranger something like this. What would he even do with the information? So do people around you notice your scars a lot? And do strangers ask about it? What do you say to them?

Title: I'm sick... Sick of people commenting on my mask Text:So I'm sick... Sick of people commenting on my mask... Guess it's a type of sickness that isn't the worst as it's not affecting me physically. But the comments are just horrible. And it's happening way more than it should. People in work telling me I can take of my mask and be brave to go into a burning building full of viruses. Just no, I don't go to work to get sick. Even if covid was similar to a cold, I don't want to feel miserable for a week. Why are other people so happy just spreading things around? And it's always the same three people with the same comments to me. I even used hand sanitiser during the week and they made fun of me for doing so. Heck, I'm even sensible in whatever little sun Ireland gets and I wear a sun hat and I get made fun of for that. Yet, nobody makes fun of others in the middle of winter wearing a wooly cap. But a sun hat in Ireland, oh no we can't have that. My workplace holds absences against you as well, so they're only encouraging sick people into work. I live in Ireland and the advice was always stay at home with symptoms. While other countries dropped isolation for positive people, Ireland stuck with stay at home with symptoms. However, almo
Title: Over a year sober and I still find myself scrolling through this subreddit Text:I miss how beautiful I felt. Not being hungry. I miss how creative it made me. The confidence. It’s a beautiful drug. My dad handed me a shard when I was 17, taught me how to do a hot rail. He ruined who I was but created who I am now. Turning 20 next year. I miss the tweaked out conversations we’d have but I don’t miss him. Haven’t spoken to him in over a year considering he tried to kill me in psychosis over a phone . I would go back to meth in a heartbeat if someone offered. Idk why I’ve worked so hard for the life I have now and I’ve always been envious of people whose parents genuinely care for them. Nobody helped me with getting a drivers license at the usual age and ID. Nobody cared when I skipped class everyday and dropped out. I take my drivers test this week and I got my ged about a year ago. Have a steady job. A great relationship that means everything to me. The power of this drug is that it will fuck up your life completely and you’re still gonna wanna come crawling back to it. I’m sober but I’m addicted. Not a day goes by where I don’t think of it.

We’ve all had feelings of dread, anxiety, and general malaise. Is this just something going on within our community? Or are others experiencing the same? Any insights would be appreciated. EDIT: Small edit just to say - while it isn’t fun to hear that others are feeling similarly, just bringing it here and getting feedback has given us a wonderful sense of extended community that we didn’t have before. Know that my friends and I are sending all of you who need it positive energy and strength from NY!

I don't know, this feels so stupid and whiny, but I can't stand it. I hate wearing a mask. I hate it so much. I hate everyone always acting like they can't hear me, I hate ruining my outfits, I hate that nobody can see me smile, I hate the stares, I hate the the questions and the alarmed "are you sick?!"s from people who aren't wearing masks, I hate that I can't wear lipstick. Obviously I do it religiously because I want to keep myself and others safe and healthy, but I'm just so fucking angry all the time. Does anybody else feel this way, or do I just need to get over myself?

Text:https://audionyq.com/steganography-and-silent-subliminals/ STEGANOGRAPHY AND “SILENT SUBLIMINALS” APRIL 27, 2023 STEVE 45 COMMENTS “Steganography” from the Greek steganós (concealed) and graphia (writing), is the practice of hiding information within another message or physical object. It could be described as a form of “hiding in plain sight”. There are several different stenanogrphic techniques relating to audio. This article, and the associated plug-in uses one specific technique called Amplitude Modulation (AM) encoding. This is the same process as is used by AM radio, except that rather than using radio waves to carry the audio, very high frequency audio is used instead. AM Encoding is the most popular technique for creating “Silent Subliminal” recordings, which advocates claim can bring about positive shifts in one’s mindset. The technique was largely based on the 1989 US Patent US5159703A by Oliver M. Lowery for a “Silent subliminal presentation system”. O. M. Lowery’s invention was based on the belief that speech messages that are AM encoded with a high audio frequency carrier, may be “decoded” by the listener’s subconscious mind, while remaining inaudible and indecip
Title: Nope! Text:Spotted in a commercial airport. So close! I would have said "Nice try" around this time four years ago. Now, not so much. At this point, signs like this come across like propaganda to me. Not that washing your hands isn't a great idea anyway.
Title: Immunocompromised person's version of what has made me more likely to get sick Text:Some tips from a person with 18 years of autoimmune illness, 14 of those spent trying to avoid getting colds, flus, and viruses. I have learned from abundant experience how easy it can be to get sick, because most people don't consider *not getting others sick* to be a priority. The following is my reflection on what I've learned about what makes me more likely to get sick. And just for context, this is ALL pre-COVID because we are still essentially sheltering-in-place + doctors' visits. **Makes me far more likely to get sick:** * If I am indoors with someone who is sick (Before a get-together happens, I have to ask people 'has anyone in your household had symptoms of illness recently?'- and if they have, even if they are 'getting over something' and 'not still contagious' I will postpone our plans- because they likely ARE still contagious. If they say everyone's been well, I'll also ask them to let me know if anything changes- so that I can cancel before we get together, if they get sick by then). * Exchanging hugs. \***EDIT**:\* ...with a sick person who may or may not know they're sick yet. * Being indoors in a group of people during flu season (I consider 2020-until eradica
Title: Who is the legitimately most powerful person in the world. Give me your guess. Text:Here are a few photos of some powerful controlling people, as a start. It’s been said that Larry Fink has the most wealth, but also Schwab has the most influence, and Lord Jacob Rothschild has the most control, if not the collective of the Bilderberg meetings.
Title: So they're human traffickers? Text:My experience started after seeing a strange note taped to a pole in a neighborhood known for being a haven of people with lesser morals. I forget what was written on it. But it made me uncomfortable. Anyone else notice this?
Title: Evidence of what is flying around our earth right now? Text:Possible evidence I found in library on these light beings Sharing information I found in the library today, while looking for more on these things flying around our Earth right now. This has been going on for way longer than we know, we need not be afraid they are here for a reason and we will find out soon enough, or maybe we won’t right away and it will be a subtle shift in the balances, either way we will be okay, but I want to keep finding out more I will say I have a somewhat of a theory when it comes to these Shining Ones, there is much art made of them and clearly we can tell the Mayans saw them. Portraying them as colorful flying beings holding a torch with a bright light, that must have been their interpretation of what they could see as obviously its not like they had binoculars or a telescope or any Drones at that time. The first picture with the balls I mean that is Undoubtedly what we are seeing in our skies right now, I’ve seen multiple videos of them and they look just like those sometimes, not all the time, sometimes they’re wormlike, and they’res probably a whole lot more kinds we haven’t seen yet, imagine a big one Theory though:when it comes to Christianity,

Title: A creep on Reddit?!?! And sh Text:(15F) so a few months ago I was bored and this supposedly 15 year old guy started chatting to me and it was about sh and then he told me he has problems jerking off so he’s trying to get his mind off of it. The convo started good but then it got weird. He asked my hair color and I said it and he asked eye color and I said it then he asked if I was thin and as someone who has struggled with ED my entire life I was like eh idk ig then he started saying the thought of me made him feel horny and a few minutes later he said he couldn’t keep it in his pants anymore. He then left the chat. And deleted his account. I’m deeply disturbed like I still think about this daily. Like what if he made another account and is stalking me?!?! Like I’m genuinely scared. What do I do??
Title: I'm a vore artist (20/F) and I want to draw some object vore! Text:As much as I would love to post object vore videos here, I have TERRIBLE self-image issues and seeing myself in a video makes me really anxious, so it's why I wanted to try drawing it instead! I haven't been getting commissions lately (to the point where I'm pretty much broke...), so I wanted to ask if anyone here would be interested!

Title: Went to the doctor for annual checkup today and... Text:SHE WAS WEARING A 3M AURA N95!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She knows I got COVID in July for the first time because she prescribed me Paxlovid over the phone in another city where I was. I thanked her for the Paxlovid prescription and explained that I had let down my guard at this convention for some reason and BAM! got it. She said "Yeah it had quite a spike this summer." This was just my regular checkup. I asked her when I could get the new vaccine after having had COVID and she said "four weeks" so I'm getting my new vaccine tomorrow.
Title: Do you think this outfit is too weird? Text:I ordered this really cute dress off of a cottagecore website and I really love the way it looks and feels but I'm worried it might look too weird and old-fashioned for some people. A lot of the younger people in my neighborhood call me "grandma" and make fun of me for preferring to dress like this, but other women seem to be a fan of it, at least the older ones. What do you guys think? Should I wear it to work tomorrow (I work at a library)?
Title: Remember that 90% if the world's heroin supply came from Afghanistan. That number plunged after the Taliban takeover. Now there's no heroin on the streets, just fentanyl. Text:I will never forget. My family members lives will be forever changed. My friends death in the war will be in vain. How more people aren't upset about this, I can't understand. Maybe it's coming from one of the states with the most overdoses in the country. You couldn't walk into a bar without hearing about the dreaded heroin. Edit: some people are missing the point of this. I'm not saying fent or heroin is better than the other, they're both despicable drugs. What I'm saying is my own government, with my tax dollars, supported growing heroin and addicting and destroying my community with overdoses and death. Edit 2: here's some links President of Afghanistans brother was caught with heroin and was paid by the CIA https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE57C2Z2/ Propaganda article about how the Taliban was banning opium cultivation is a bad thing for the West https://www.vice.com/en/article/7kxw3b/the-talibans-opium-ban-has-become-an-existential-problem-for-the-west Edit 3: everyone blames China in these comments and it's making me think they're buying directly into state propaganda or diverting the crimes that we can control. Here's food for thought - Afghanistan is right
