Title: You've heard of objective facts, now get ready for ergative facts!
Text:# Definition of Ergativity
It has been said that the criteria for a fact to be objective is that it is mind-independent, or as some would prefer the term stance-independent. X will still be true whether or not people believe in it.
Following the age-old tradition of philosophers stealing words from grammarians and english teachers (subject, predicate, object), I have now appropriated another linguistic terminology: the ergative. It came from the greek word ἔργον (érgon, “work”), to exclusively refer to active participants, things that actually do something.
An ergative fact actually does something in the actual world regardless of norm, in other words, it is norm-independent. X is true whether or not it is ought to be that way. You end up doing X whether or not you ought to do it.
# Overlap with Adjacent Concepts
A fact can be both ergative and objective at the same time, e.g. the fact that it rains in Africa actually does something to Africa and it happens regardless of people's belief nor obligations.
A fact can be both ergative and subjective at the same time, e.g. the fact that rainy days feels gloomy actually does something to people's moods and behaviors. It is dependen

Title: I will be a lone masker at a family wedding tomorrow, could really use any words of encouragement and support
Text:Yeah, pretty much what the title says.
It’s a religious, very conservative crowd. I’ve only every heard family members disparaging mask wearing and covid precautions since the start of the pandemic, but not quite directed at me exactly. When I mask around them they ignore it to my face but whisper amongst themselves in my presence.
I know I can do this and get through it, I’m stronger in my masking than ever before, but to push on through bad vibes and having to play totally nice with people I just generally don’t like much is gonna take a lot out of me mentally and emotionally. If anyone does directly address or question my respirator I just know it’s gonna make me anxious, so I was hoping I could get some replies here that I’ll be able to refer to in my head to comfort and reassure myself.
Thanks in advance <3
Edit: I’m pretty certain on what my responses would be if someone asks about my mask, what I mostly meant in that last line is a request for reassurance from you guys that I can recall to calm myself knowing there’s a community of the kindest people ever backing me up, even if I’m feeling alone in that moment☺️
(My response likely being- remember when I was diagnosed

Title: What made Kate Middleton play ball?
Text:I believe William had an affair and was caught by Kate. Kate refused to participate in futher engagements and wanted to take the children. Lou and Charlotte went with their mother but george with his father hence only seeing him in the public eye.
The future king of the country couldn't not be seen as an adulterer so they had to keep Kate out of the way. They created deep fakes to keep the public happy and by some time.
Kate is clearly alive and they have obviously forced her on some account to play royal families again. She must have had a condition however that she's stays apart from William. They stay well apart on the trooping the Colours parade with George sitting between them on the journey. George is very close to his dad and is very much protected as heir to the throne. This is why he didn't go with his mum when she wanted out.
I don't know what they've threatened to get her back on board but it must be dark for her to appear again.

Title: Study: 37% risk of developing long COVID after 3 infections
Text:According to a study conducted on thousands of healthcare workers in the province of Quebec, Canada, between the beginning of the pandemic and summer 2023, the risk of getting long COVID is estimated at
13% after 1 infection;
23% after 2 infection;
37% after 3 infections.
[https://ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/2116352/covid-longue-sras-cov2-pandemie-risque](https://ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/2116352/covid-longue-sras-cov2-pandemie-risque)
Some notable excerpts:
Selon l’INSPQ, environ 16 % des travailleurs de la santé sondés ont signalé des symptômes pendant plus de 12 semaines après une infection à la COVID-19. Pour certains, les symptômes se sont résorbés après quelques mois, mais 6 % de tous les travailleurs de la santé du Québec présentaient encore des symptômes persistants de la COVID-19 à l'été 2023, soit environ 24 000 personnes.
Selon Sara Carazo, ces données brossent un bon portrait de la prévalence de la COVID longue à l'échelle provinciale et concordent avec de nombreuses autres études, dont l’Enquête canadienne sur la santé et les anticorps contre la COVID-19 (Nouvelle fenêtre), qui montrent que le taux de prévalence de la COVID longue est d’environ 15 %.

Title: Success!
Text:I posted about a month ago regarding some family who were coming to visit. None of them mask regularly, and I was concerned about our elderly parents and my immunocompromised spouse. We got to their Airbnb today, and everyone came out to greet us - fully masked! They masked all day, had outdoor areas with plenty of space to distance for meals, and there wasn't a single complaint. It was a really lovely day and the old folks and my spouse felt like their needs were not only heard, they were met. Appreciating all of my family a little bit more tonight.

Title: This shit is actually real. It's a real organization. And I'm not a paranoid person

Title: Some reasons why the US Government/Intelligence Agencies/Law Enforcement Agencies Support and are behind Gangstalking aka Domestic Terrorism here in the US
Text:**They get paid.**
* Simple as that. They're paid to perpetuate the system, and by all means necessary, generate false accusations or reports to keep the home fires roasting.
* As much as we learn about the military industrial complex, think of who gets those hand me downs now? Federal then local law enforcement. While the news parades Armored Assault Vehicles relabeled with local PD info, its the smaller shit like surveillance equipment like stingrays, cameras, etc that get added to agency's arsenal. That's why you can't even call a beat cop anymore. All or most of the agencies are so engrossed with chasing $ to bust someone on anything to add to the dogpile.
* The criminal justice complex is another major industry. Think about how many prison industries are making profit off cheap, slave labor. They get paid to bust you in, because that means more salary, more benefits and stability for an industry that keeps rewarding. Any asset you own becomes a **currency**, as does the remaining years of **your** life.
* They enjoy all the perks of continued "surveillance", from a cup of Starbucks to getting their gas tank topped off. The ability to fill out an expense report on someone else

Death certificate and everything. They will then exchange me in the morgue. And once I wake up from them urinating in my face they will start the torture. I hope I die fast.

Title: To those who hear "voices", can you also change yours to say what you want
Text:My gang stalkers definitely aren't voices because I can think hard enough and then they say what I want. Infact it's hard to stop assuming what they're going to say and changing it. Just wondering if anyone else has it like that.
I've learned that the voices they gave me are just my own brain talking to itself these days, the hackers don't interact with me anymore.

Title: Squatters and Gangstalking
Text:So we should all know by now the pinnacle.of gangstalking is money laundering and money mule economies.
One trend I've noticed and am personally challenged with is property squatting. It seems perps and gangstalkers will attempt to find the most ridiculous ways to squat on your property and pursue insurance fraud against your estate. It's no secret that identity theft and associatef crimes yields a multi billion dollar a year industry. This translates into the gangstalking indusutry. This translates into today's squatter problem that is plaguing the country everyday. Yet the government continues to support and endorese money mule politics and terror group funding by targeting political voices and advocates with suppression tactics, punitive psychiatry and money laundering empires. They enable a squatting problem to allow Israel to continue to auction millions of Americans as slaves to die as cattle fire in a proxy war, among many other things.

Title: Theodor Adorno, greatest conservative thinker of the 20th century
Text:Theodor Adorno was among the first writers to highlight how the culture industry erodes traditional values. Together with his colleague Horkheimer, he launched a scathing critique on mass media and how it brainwashes us into obedience. As a connoisseur of classical music he despised the jazz music of his day. His criticisms of the 1968 youth movements remain relevant in today's era of wokeness. Prominent contemporary conservatives such as Richard Spencer cite Adorno's deep influence on modern conservatism.

Title: Jesus Declared 'Woke' After GOP Learns He Fed the Poor Without Checking IDs
Text:In a shocking twist that has rocked conservative circles, Jesus Christ, the central figure of Christianity, has been labeled “woke” by prominent Republican leaders after new revelations of his teachings and actions were brought to their attention.
“It turns out this guy was out there feeding thousands of freeloaders without even asking for proof of citizenship,” said Senator Rick Hardstone (R-OK). “I mean, bread and fish for everyone? That’s socialism, plain and simple.”
The backlash began after a Bible study group unearthed passages describing Jesus healing the sick without charging co-pays and advocating for forgiveness, even for tax collectors and sinners. The final straw came when it was revealed that Christ suggested the rich should sell their possessions and give the proceeds to the poor.
“This is cancel culture in reverse,” said conservative commentator Brad Gunner on his nightly show Freedom Hour. “Jesus is canceling wealth and ambition. What’s next? Replacing ‘In God We Trust’ with ‘Redistribute the Wealth’ on our money?”
GOP lawmakers have introduced legislation to address the crisis. Dubbed the “Free Market Faith Act,” the bill would mandate that any public d

Title: Breaking: Trump Campaign Sues 'Lying, Freeloading Bitch' For Not Returning $100 He Pretended to Give Her at Grocery Store During 'Obviously and Indisputably Fake' Campaign Photo Op
Text:Court filings from Trump Campaign lawyers over the weekend indicate that the former President is taking such a head-scratching legal step because "even a stupid bitch without any money knows what a fake campaign photo op looks like." The filings indicate the plaintiff is prepared to present hundreds of terabytes of data and evidence to demonstrate irrefutably that under absolutely no stretch of the imagination would Donald Trump ever voluntarily debase himself by acting generous, let alone to the tune of one hundred entire dollars.
"She's a GRIFTER AND TOTALLY PHONY! WHO DOES SHE THINK SHE IS! I'm no sucker who gives his money away!" the former President began in a Truth Social post late Sunday evening. "That's why she's probably sleeping with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris RIGHT NOW!! Everyone is saying that Your Favorite President of All Time, MEEE!, Needs That Cash Immediately! MAGA!!" The post, which he made at 3:37 am, comes with only a little more than six weeks to go before more than a hundred million Americans are expected to cast ballots in what many are calling the most critical election in the history of the republic, tens of millions of whom will be voting for the plaint

Title: 25 Reasons the Trinity is a Dangerous False Doctrine
Text:**25 Reasons the Trinity is a Dangerous False Doctrine**
1. **It violates the 1****^(st)** **Commandment and the Shema.** (Mark 12:29)
There cannot be a capital-G God beneath the capital-G God—only a lowercase god which is an angel.
The capital-G God is the highest authority and source of all things. The Trinity therefore violates the Shema (Deuteronomy 6:4) and the 1st Commandment (Exodus 20:3), which is to love no other gods but the only true God, who is eternal source of all things visible and invisible and of life itself.
2. **It violates God's Headship of Authority.** (1 Corinthians 11:3)
The head of woman is man, the head of man is Christ, and the head of Christ is God. This is violated by making Jesus equal with the Father God, which dismantles the entire headship of authority by allowing man to become equal with Christ, and woman to become equal with man. This is a catastrophic disruption of God's perfect created order.
3. **It violates the term "Only Begotten".** (John 3:16)
In contradiction of biblical doctrine that Jesus was created (begotten) by the Father God on Day 1 of creation, Trinitarians attempt to make Jesus be co-eternal with the Father by nullifyi

Title: Are you a religion other than christian? Could this be why you were targeted?
Text:Nazis love to use Christianity to declare themselves God’s chosen race (white)
This is combined with the fact that the bible contains scripture about how to handle your slaves. The bible pretty much condones slavery.
The bible could have scripture instructing you to take a shit on your newborn baby’s face and these stupid fucking CIA NSA neo Nazis would obey it. Thats how fucking stupid and psychopathic they are.
In fact i wouldn’t doubt it if the bible instructs you to take a shit on your wife’s face considering how misogynistic that evil book is.

Title: How old is “too old” to cut?

I recently relapsed and I have some new scars healing on my arms. I was told “you’re wayyyyy too old to be doing that.”
Is there really an age that is “too old?” Obviously I want to stop before I have children, but that comment hurt me pretty bad.

Title: “I just want you to safely expose yourself” 🙄
Text:I am the only Covid conscious person in my family (and tbh, in my life) and it is a point of contention with my family because I won’t see them unless it’s outside (I’m masked but they aren’t), and I send them up to date covid information often (they ignore it and don’t respond). I got long covid after my first infection in 2022 and am much better than I was but still impacted. My family claims they’ve never gotten covid but they don’t mask and don’t test.
My birthday is next month and my mom called me to ask me about planning a birthday get together with her, my brothers, and my grandparents. I agreed, and said I’d like to meet outside somewhere like a park, and I’d like everyone to be masked. My mom wants me to go inside my grandparents new condo, and doesn’t want anyone to mask. Her idea of a compromise was an outdoor restaurant, and that’s when she said she wants me to “expose [myself] to risk safely.”
I countered that masked and outside was me risking exposure “safely.” She had to get off the phone quickly after that so she couldn’t respond, but I know she’s not happy. I just don’t understand why I need to compromise my safety on my own birthday for their comfort.

Title: I need some advice coven, about putting a sticker on my car
Text:I got these awesome stickers in the mail the last couple of days. I bought them a few weeks ago from someone else on this sub.
I absolutely love them, but my partner believes the one on the left may be in poor taste or cause trouble if I put it on my car.
I honestly loved it because it can be applied to any fascist, readers choice, but with recent events... Is it too on the nose?
I would appreciate some outside advice as I'm getting a lot of mixed reactions from friends.
For context, I live in a very red area, but I already have BLM stickers, pride stickers, "A woman's place is in the resistance" Princess Leia sticker, an coexist sticker, and a "we can do it" sticker where Rosie is masked. I've not received any violence or death threats, just the occasional middle finger.
I always just blow a kiss or make heart with my hands in response.
I hope this is an okay post, it was the first place I thought to go for some advice. Thank you in advance, my magickal friends. ❤️

Title: The cognitive dissonance of not taking precautions
Text:I want to discuss the internal experience of living 2019-style during the pandemic, from my past. Trigger warning: past personal experience of not mitigating strongly
This is a story of the lack of mitigation consistency and intense cognitive dissonance I used to suffer. For about 1 year from mid-2022 to mid-2023, I did not protect myself and others from Covid as aggressively as I should have. I wore a KN95/surgical mask indoors in stores and doctors' offices, and I sometimes wore an ill-fitting N95 mask on planes as an upgrade from my KN95. But I also still went to restaurants and parties unmasked, and I didn't have a consistent Covid safety practice when it came to meeting friends or hookups.
In summer 2022, I had to go to a mandatory work training event. This was during the BA.4 surge. I was worried about the surge, and I asked my supervisors if I could attend virtually or skip because of the Covid risk. All they could say was "no one will be mad if *you* wear a mask...this is a really important training and it will reflect poorly if you don't go." So, I reluctantly went. Hundreds of people flying in (likely unmasked) from all over the country to converge at a single conventio

Title: The Coughing & Sneezing
Text:I just flew from Chicago to Los Angeles. I wore an N95 and goggles and used Betadine spray and Polysporin (in the nose). There were probably 5 of us masked on a full flight. I have never heard so much coughing and sneezing in my life (none of those people were masked). Disgusting, open-mouthed hacking. Full-grown adults, and small children. I've been reading other people's posts about a lot of coughing, etc., but until now I hadn't experienced it myself. Could. Not. Believe. And the fact that NO ONE is covering their mouth makes me livid. What the hell????? (I also can't believe that I used to sit for hours and hours on airplanes with no mask, just blithely breathing in everyone's exhalations.) Anyway. It was gross. And of course, a huge risk for illness. UGH.

I reviewed with them only what I had to, and then left after lunch for the rest of the day.
I have so much hate in my heart for the way we as a species are going about this. I guess I need to work on that.
It’s all just so upsetting sometimes, though. The fact that I could become disabled simply by going into work and doing my job. How is that fair? No one will take care of me if I’m unable to work due to disability.
It’s all so wrong.

Title: Paramedics with N95's on
Text:So...my MIL is 87. She's been ill with "something" over the holidays. We wear N95's whenever we are with her. (Well, clarification, we wear N95's anytime we are with others). She lives 1 mile from us. We keep close tabs on her. Her temperature spiked to 105⁰ and she had been in urgent care 2 days before (covid negative and lungs clear). We gave her tylenol and her temp dropped to 100⁰ within 90 minutes. She was still delirious.
Anyway, we made the decision to call the paramedics to help us know/evaluate if we needed to get her in the ER.
To my surprise every one of the six paramedics that arrived on scene had a 3M aura N95 on, and were wearing them correctly. Knock me over with a feather!!
Anyway, post evaluation they didn't think she needed hospitalization and she regained her ability to discern reality again.
I was still just gobsmacked to see these 6 big guys wearing N95's.

Title: Feeling truly awful after COVID and Flu Vaccine. Anyone else?
Text:I got my covid and flu vaccines Thursday around 5pm. That night, I could barely sleep due to a bad headache, restlessness, arm soreness, feverishness, and body aches. I woke up at 5:30am with my calf cramping for a few hours, which then turned to a weird nerve pain in the same location that eventually went away. I couldn’t go back to sleep since I felt so awful, so I took some advil, drank tea, and ate some food to see if any of that would help. I thankfully napped for majority of the day and ate again at 1pm. I felt so exhausted, feverish, and weak.
Then, around 24 hours after my vaccines, I was loading the dishwasher and became extremely faint. I quickly laid down on the couch with my feet up. I felt so ill, but I fortunately didn’t pass out. Even after eating a lot more food and taking more advil, I felt faint/dizzy for the next few hours.
This was one of the worst vaccine reactions I’ve had and I’m wondering if it’s because I got both the covid and flu shots at the same time. I don’t normally have any symptoms after my flu shot, but I’ve heard that the combo can really take some people out. I’ve also tried to see if it’s anything related to this newest covid vaccine, but I’m

Title: Donald Trump sues CBS News for $10 Billion alleging 'deceptive doctoring' of Kamala Harris' '60 Minutes' interview.
Text:Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump sued CBS on Thursday over an interview of his Democratic rival Kamala Harris aired on its "60 Minutes" news program in early October that the lawsuit alleged was and misleading, according to a court filing.
The complaint, filed in federal court in the Northern District of Texas, alleges that the network aired two different responses from Harris responding to a question about the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
The version that aired during the "60 Minutes" program on Oct. 6 did not include what the lawsuit calls a "word salad" response from Harris about the Biden administration's influence on Israel's conduct of the war.
A spokesperson for CBS did not immediately respond to a request for comment
Trump and Harris face each other in what polls show to be a tight race ahead of Tuesday's U.S. presidential election.
The suit demanded a jury trial and about $10 billion in damages, the filing showed. It alleges violations of a Texas law barring deceptive acts in the conduct of business.
Trump has repeatedly assailed the network on the campaign trail over the episode and has threatened to revoke CBS's broadcasting license if elected

Title: I Just Exploded on My Dad
Text:Hi all. This is a venting post and I’ll try and make it as clear and concise as possible. I’m actually still shaking from this experience.
I was chatting on the phone with my Mom during one of our weekly check ins. My Dad got on the line and I could tell he had a tone of, I don’t know, contempt, in his voice. We haven’t talked in months and I thought he may have been feeling a way because of that. My partner and I just moved so it felt to me he was giving me the third degree about my choices.
Then he said him and my mom are planning their trip to Texas. My sister just bought a mansion and is hosting a huge gathering for Thanksgiving. I already let her know I wasn’t coming. My Dad then asked if I was attending and I said no. He pointedly asked, WHY NOT? For five years my reasons for not traveling have been the exact same: COVID / HEALTH CONCERNS. Why do they refuse to comprehend this concept? Having to once again put myself out there and say this yet again, I basically exploded five years worth of feeling misunderstood by my family. I could no longer hold back my emotions!
I did my best to explain my stance once again while crying. My mom was silent and my Dad cut me off calli

I’m an avid masker and avoided catching COVID until the end of 2023. I got it at the dentist after being so hesitant to even go. I had no choice.
Unfortunately, I caught it from my mom 7 days ago, with a positive test this past Monday. She lives alone, and I go over there to help her out with things. She didn’t feel unwell. She had just returned home from a very long (5-hour) dental surgery. I was with her for a total of 12 minutes. Yes… 12 minutes.
We weren’t close to each other, but she was walking around the apartment and must have expelled it into the air.
I don’t want to ever get this horrible virus again, but I feel like the current state of affairs in this country (and worldwide, frankly) is that we aren’t making much progress on any front.
So, how can we truly avoid Long COVID if it will never go away? I think about this constantly, and it’s paralyzing me with fear.
Thanks for listening ❤️

Title: What are governments gonna do about the large number of cancer patients, people with MECFS and children that won't hit their milestones? I'm genuinely curious about the future. Almost half a decade in, only 2-3 years after the great Unmasking and I feel we're in a careless limbo before the blowup
Text:When I think about the future, everyone I know who's not dead will be sick and poor and unable to work as well.
What would governments do about this? They can't euthanize us all. And we can't work so we're nothing to them.
Genuinely curious
EDIT: just to clarify no I don't expect a reckoning lol. I know many people on CC twitter and Reddit believe there's a tipping point for the pandemic, I don't.
That entails "not expecting them to care"
I just have a genuine curiosity about the logistics capitalism will take when they killed off their tax payers and workforce.
I also don't appreciate being told I'm "new to death and disability" cause I'm born with a disability

Title: I hate awkwardly sitting masked through meals at events
Text:Tonight is a lecture/award ceremony at the school I graduated from, and I was invited to a “reception” before the event for the previous winners of the award. I know when I won, the “reception” was at the university club and it ended up being just me, the guest lecturer, and my research advisor, so I’m not expecting it to be a crowded dinner or anything. I was planning on attending (I would LOVE to meet the lecturer) and just staying masked, and when I voiced my concerns about covid my advisor even said masking is of course welcome and that he would make sure the lecture venue has the ventilation turned up, which was really nice!
But now that it’s a couple hours away I’m suddenly getting cold feet lol. I don’t know if dinner is involved at the reception (though I think it is) and I typically don’t eat and just hang out in these instances. But now I’m nervous about just sitting there through dinner - idk I’m kind of an uncomfortable person in social situations in general 😂 how do you guys deal with the awkwardness of just not eating at meals in public? I’m not expecting to be judged or anything because I’m very lucky that a ton of the people in this field are very covid conscious,

Title: "Cat scratches"
Text:Stop calling them “cat scratches.” Yeah, “these are so shallow, it doesn’t count”—right, because nothing screams “totally fine” like slicing up your skin and saying it’s no big deal. "Just a cat scratch," more like, holy shit, you’re literally cutting yourself. Where’d this term even come from? Sure, they kinda look like a scratch from a cat, but seriously, where’s the actual feline overlord responsible for this? Nowhere. This is still you doing it to yourself. (If there is a cat doing this to you stop that feline fucker.) Doesn’t matter if it’s a little scratch or a full-on trench—self-harm is self-harm. And the whole game of “who cuts the deepest” for validation? Thats just another way of saying; "how can I boost my self esteem while lowering someone else's?" The goal isn’t to win some contest; it’s to stop entirely.

Title: Someone Cut Themselves Because Of Something I said
Text:I’ve been here supporting people for a while, trying to leave comments of assurance and helping folks talk it out where I can, but this is absurd.
Somebody here cut themselves because of a comment I left and I don’t know how I can deal with that. I’m no licensed therapist and I don’t know what the fuck to do anymore.
I ended a comment with, “Stay safe, goober 💛”, only to get a reply back saying they cut themselves and blocked me because I insulted them.
Insulted them.
***goober.***
That was a term of light-hearted endearment.
I’m beating myself up over this shit, did I genuinely do something wrong?

2. whistleblowers, dissidents, etc deemed a threat to authority and targeted using plain dark psychology, weaponised para-noia or "Zersetzung"
3. trolls and LARPers
4. people experiencing a de-lusion
(1) exists by virtue of the existing documented cases
(2) exists because obviously
(3) exists because it's obvious from a lot of the comments
(4) exists because there is a long, well-documented history of this type of presentation

Title: Stop doing fake dope
Text:Real dope is not supposed to get your heart racing in a way that you feel like you’re going to have a heart attack. Or have panic attacks or a need to redose every 5 minutes. It also doesn’t make you sleepy or tired, sad or lazy and you’re not able to eat much. Good dope would get you depressed and crying after a couple of days and you can barely get any sleep in 72h, you would lose weight like crazy, your skin would itch so much that you would bleed scratching it.
You should get energetic, horny, social. You should want to move around, clean and open electronics not be a couch potato.
You should be able to get close to baseline and ready to feel it all over again with 2 days of sleep and nutrition. Try it before you buy it, if it don’t get you euphoric, feeling good and confident, don’t buy it.
Whatever y’all are smoking is not it.

Title: Where can i find videos of women masturbating on meth.
Text:I thought that i never had a taste or thing with porn Or sex because I've been jerking off to it chronically since I was 10 and I can *literally* get off to anything. But considering all the fetishes I've got, the one theme that i find myself gravitating towards in every fetish is the pleasure or satisfaction a woman feels (or the femenine in general cuz femboys) . So i really want to see a woman lose herself masturbating on meth. I just watched a video of a this girl who I could see was clearly on meth because it looked like she had no control over her arms (just like I don't when I stimfap) and had the most aggressive orgasm, which I can tell wasn't fake like most in those genres. It's like i could feel it even when I'm sober because it reminds of that exact feeling. I don't mind trans or femboys either, I just want to see them experience an orgasm on meth. Can someone please find me a place where I can find this, I can't find anything on reddit besides the cocain or meth gw sub but thats just pics and normal porn.
TLDR : I want solo meth porn.

Title: Why do police suck when it comes to self harm?
Text:I'm depressed. I'm suicidal. And in the end, I slice and dice my arm to get through the day. It's my way of coping with everything that goes wrong in my life.
And we live in a world where someone called 911 because they saw my arm, I had a NY State Trooper and 3 county sheriff's come, handcuff me for not wanting to talk while explicitly saying "Please don't handcuff me, I have trauma from police brutality", and make me stay in a crisis room in the hospital for 8 hours when I was finally released at midnight, and had to walk 2 miles to my car frlm the hospital (because im homeless and live in my car). And this all happened a week ago. Now I get constant phone calls from the New York State Police and I have a hearing for a Final Extreme Risk Protection Order in a couple days. And yes. I understand that they are doing this because it's protocol. Because I'm the mind of mentally well people, if you just stick people with struggles in a white box, they will magically get better. As if I didny want to kill myself even more after that experience. And now, if I am near an officer, I am scared to show my arm. I am scared of being punished for my depression. Fuck this world

Title: Gangstalking linked to sex?
Text:I know this is a terribly complex issue and I’m not attempting to be controversial at all, but I’m currently being stalked and I’m a male. The 4 main people that are stalking me are:
1. My father (straight) (CIA)
2. An ex-banker (gay) (NSA)
3. The ex-banker’s lover (gay) (NSA)
4. An ex-con posing as a police officer (gay) (NSA)
Has any other targeted individuals experienced this? Where most of the people stalking them are gay? It’s like a gang of gay people and it’s been like this for 3 years.
The ex-banker has been doing it ever since I turned him down 5 years ago.
The reason I bring light to this subject is because I think there is a correlation.

Title: My conspiracy is Luigi Mangione just SCREAMED at reporters and struggled with police as he was escorted into court… in my 40 years of being alive, I’ve never seen an altercation like this televised on TV… the drama
Text:The world is a stage. This is all bullshit… it’s obviously a distraction, it’s a PSYOP, I’m wondering if Luigi Mangione ever existed? Is this a whole character they created for whatever reason?
Was the CEO a character they were able to fabricate and create? Was the shooting video fabricated?
The whole story about a McDonald’s employee, turning this guy in calling the cops in a random town in Pennsylvania with the guy having the murder weapon on him and the manifesto…
Everything can be created in this situation, the roommates that they are interviewing, the little speech for his valedictorian that they are putting on TV.
Deep fakes have been so out of control and just because they can put a timestamp or a date on a video saying that this happened in 2016 or this is what somebody said five years ago or these are some family pictures none of it can be real.
This entire situation is so unbelievably suspect, and if you’re a free thinker at all and think slightly outside of the box, you’ll see where I’m coming from. The whole thing is just so strange, bizarre and cooked. I don’t believe any of it…
We have tons and tons of photos of Luigi, yet we only have one photograph of Bri

Title: Would you use an interactive tool to explore brain-computer interface and neural activity?
Text:I am working on a new tool designed to make brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and neural activity more approachable and interactive. This platform is for those who want to explore the intricacies of the brain and electrode interactions, whether you're new to the field or looking to deepen your knowledge.
Breakdown:
\- Hands-on interaction with neural concepts: Visual feedback that adapt in real-time, helping you see how neural pathways and brain regions respond to electrode placements.
\- Explore brain activity at multiple levels: go from big-picture perspectives to detailed, focused views, understanding the scale of neural activity and interactions.
\- Engage with experiment-like scenarios: discover, interact and test brain and electrode activity in sync with each other, giving you a chance to learn by doing, without the need for complex lab setups.
This tool is all about bridging the gap between abstract concepts and real practical understanding. You will get to "explore" rather than simulate i.e., seeing the relationships and dynamics in a way that builds intuition and hard skills needed in neurotechnology and BCI. And while it may not be entirely biologically accurate, its

Title: Just saw someone come into a PHARMACY with potential covid symptoms, speaking about half a metre away from the pharmacists face about having a sore throat. Both them and pharmacist unmasked. HOW are people not worried about spreading/catching covid?!
Text:They were saying "oh I've had this sore throat for a while and a bit of a cough" and the pharmacist was asking about symptoms. "Do you have a fever?" No. But he didn't ask if they'd done a covid test. This pharmacy was also attached to a doctors surgery, so potentially other vulnerable people around. And also this pharmacy had no windows or ventilation (but air con was on so it wasn't even too hot to mask).
I wear a mask at all times to protect myself (and luckily was wearing one then). None of the pharmacists were masked, and this person was speaking so close to the pharmacist's face. I *guess* it's their choice to not protect themselves but a) How are the pharmacists not worried about constantly catching stuff b) Why was there no "oh it might be covid, have you tested and c) just UGH this is why it's spreading. I just don't get how people aren't more worried. Especially health care professionals.

Title: According to the Gnostics, it was actually a good thing that Eve got us all expelled from the Garden
Text:
Not long ago, I came across a meme that stayed with me much longer than memes typically do. Though I couldn't track it down, I remember it was about the problematic lesson we get from reading the creation of Man in Genesis—originally (we are being told), it was Adam, a man, who begat a woman, not the other way around. It's as if the Bible tells us that men give life, not women.
Reading it, I was instantly reminded of a passage in one of the ancient and very strange texts found near Nag Hammadi.
Reading it for the first time, you get a sense that what you are being told—is not so much the "behind the scenes" version of Genesis—but a completely different and contradictory retelling of that story of creation.
Did you ever read these texts?

Title: Has BCI made it far enough for my case yet?
Text:Hello! first off thanks for your time.
I have a friend who's going to be bed bound and tired for a while due to a rare illness, he's barely able to speak. And it's likely his condition will deteriorate periodically like this over his lifetime and end up back in Hospital. So I want to make his time when his brain is active but body is tired as enjoyable as possible for him. Computers and the internet grant freedom to people in these states so I'm building a bedside computer system to remote desktop etc.
After all of the ways Ive been thinking about accessibility like eye movement etc. I imagine my final upgrade for it will be a BCI. I looked at OpenBCI and was impressed with the market available tech for developers. But I'm still left with the following questions.
Is the tech far enough for me to purchase the equipment and download already made windows user interpretation/controls? I'd like it if they could operate windows normally with a BCI, Much like you can wth eye tracking nowadays.
Is there issues with long term comfort? does it work over hair?

Title: The Secret book of John aka The Apocryphon of John
Text:This is a controversial book and is not accepted as biblical canon, but I think it has some important ideas which are relevant to this sub and I would like to hear what people think about it. Here's a link to read it directly [https://othergospels.com/john/#10](https://othergospels.com/john/#10) the post to follow is mixed with my ideas and interpretations.
Origins and Controversy
The text is attributed to 2nd or 3rd century Sethian Gnostics and is debated as to who actually wrote it. It's generally attributed to John the Apostle after having received a vision of Jesus, but is disputed by biblical scholars. The text was condemned by Irenaeus of Lyon in his work "Against Heresies" as being heretical, as Irenaeus opposed all of Gnosticism.
However, I don't think labeling something "heretic" is a philosophical death sentence, as Jesus himself was labeled a heretic for going against the establishment of the times. Heretic means you don't conform to the exact specifications of the establishment and any deviations are labeled a heresy. I think this label is a means to squash anything that goes against the church, to control information, to keep things hidden from view and to kee

Text:Proposed bills S9867/A10057A outlaw the use of PPE during any lawful assembly, unlawful assembly, or riot. There is an allowance for masking to protect health, but ONLY during a Declared Public Health Emergency!
This broad language effectively stops people from using PPE to protect their health when accessing necessary services, when participating in education or the economy, or when socializing - whatever!

Title: Just a post on my own personal nonsense and scattered thoughts… sorry in advance
Text:
I’ve been trying to make multiple posts here on various topics for at least a month but somehow it hasn’t happened. Bear with me please. I just want to get one out.. this isn’t going to be well written.
I made good progress yesterday before I got interrupted. I did draft what I had and even copied the text. As always, it disappeared when I tried to go back to it.
I'd be super interested if anyone would like to discuss any of these topics in more detail. It's all been escalating for me recently, and it's often overwhelming on a daily basis.
These are just a few things I’ve wished I had some people to talk to about or bounce ideas or knowledge off of -
1. There is a huge antenna in the side yard of the house I’ve been living in for 7 yrs. Off the back porch there is a tall-ish satellite dish that to me just looked like one of the old Dish cable setups. On the back of the house near the weird satellite dish, there are 2 huge solar panels that go from the bottom of the house to the roof. When I look online at the surrounding homes, at least 3 of them have similar huge antennas in their yards..
Maybe I’m making too many things into something? That’s why I wanted to post here about

Title: I got it wrong, my mitigations DID likely hold up.
Text:Hi all, i just wanted to correct a post i made a few weeks ago when i was extremely frustrated with having been reinfected.
Tldr:
I was too sick to think straight and completely forgot that i had had a doctors appointment where i likely caught covid, they made me remove my mask. Instead i thought it might have been from work, where i wear a 3m aura, i had lifted it (holding my breath) to drink water. I was really sad that such a small instance could have given me covid. And yes, maybe it could have, but the doctors appointment is way more likely.
I just wanted to share because i think it's important to feel some confidence in the precautions we take. I'm sorry about my mistake! I don't want anyone feeling more scared than they already are.
Longer story:
Of course nothing is 100%. But it's extremely likely i caught covid at a very extensive doctors appointment where the (mask-on-chin) nurses were both sick and i was forced to remove my mask for a very long period of time. I don't know how this slipped my mind (well, covid brain). It was a very frustrating appointment where i sat continuously using my nasal spray and praying for the best. It's a long story and involves a doctor

Title: I feel like I’m losing my mind
Text:I am so exhausted. Nobody in my family cares about Covid, if they mask they do it near me to humour me because I insist. I’m immunocompromised and a cancer survivor, I have issues with my heart. I was the first one in my house to catch Covid two years ago and I locked myself in my room to keep them safe, avoided showering in our shared bathroom, cleaned the hell out of it when I used it to make sure they didn’t catch it, but they ignored me and they kept coming in my room maskless and it spread across all of them. My family also has comorbidities. I mask to keep myself and them safe. My mom is currently sick and coughing all over the place. No one is masked in the house except me. She tested negative yesterday and everyone is getting aggressive at me/laughing at me or calling me selfish and controlling. I just started my first job in healthcare out of school last week and it’s temporary so I have no sick days or vacation. Nobody masks at work. I bought air purifiers and masks that set me back so much money to keep myself safe. I bought my family masks, they won’t wear them. I can’t afford to get sick. Even the common cold screws me up because of my immune system. I’m sitting here

Title: Sometimes we really are masking for those who can't
Text:Wanted to share this because it affirmed to me that - as hard as it is to stick out as usually the only person masking - there are at least some people out there who do appreciate it. It also affirmed to me how important it is to express appreciation when I see others masking in the wild!
My husband was buying a new car last week (btw - masks are good for negotiations! 😆), and as he's signing the papers in the finance department, the finance guy told him he really appreciated that my husband was masking - he (the finance guy) would wear a mask at work if he could but because he's "customer facing" they won't let him.
It was really good for my husband to hear this, bc he does have trouble feeling singled out as the only person masking.

She's been insisting for months she doesn't need to wear a mask as long as she "keeps her distance" (even at bars and parties) but not wearing a mask in the airport is where I draw the line. I said at least wear on the plane--she said "if I feel like it". She hasn't gotten vaxxed either and seems reluctant whenever I bring it up.
I called her gross and selfish and I don't care if she's mad at me for it. Because she is. Especially knowing my dad is very immune compromised and has long COVID.
And I'd also like to add that she's a healthcare worker. Between the pharmacist I encountered yesterday and her it goes to show that public health and healthcare workers have completely failed us. I've lost so much respect for her.
update: fortunately I was able to get her to wear it on the plane. I think the person hacking in front of her might've convinced her😃

Title: Any ideas which community to join or where people can relate and talk about this life affliction online.
Text:I have brain zaps with tinnitus and both seem to worsen with migraines. I also experience visual snow 100% of the time, meaning there is static or fuzz in my vision with eyes open and closed. My tinnitus is so horrible I use hearing aids for white noise, which I hate but drowns out the crickets, straight streams, both high pitched and low, plus the pulsating building alarm system I hear all at the same time. Is this the right community for me? I'm telling you it's so bad if I didn't have grandchildren I could check out of here happily! I see two Neurologists, a psychiatrist, audiologist, ophthalmologist, audiologist, and more. I'm trying to find others socially who have this similar kind of life.

Title: Astral Projection?
Text:Has anyone here looked into astral projection or the Monroe Institute?
I ask, because several months ago my harassers (/the criminals conducting a terrorist attack upon me, which has had incidences which were quite close to the Elisa Lam case) said to me (via words to my head, no inflection of voice) that they were doing this to me from the astral plane to my etheric body. They also told me to look into Havana Syndrome.
This is what they said to me, via words to my mind. I never astral projected before, but some of the stuff they have done to me has included:
— Nerve sensations constantly firing off in my head (since around 2015, I noticed this)
— Strange vibrations/waves that slowly seemed to crawl through my body, starting with extremities.
— Bizarre 3D and animated visuals to the mind’s eye and dream sequences (where I am present, but not at the helm, if that makes sense) and in art styles I’ve never seen before
— A very strong magnetic sensation that passed through the top of my head (which felt like a piece of wire slicing through clay, but it was my brain). It has been all very, very painful and after one of the nights, it almost felt as if a piece of my mind was taken

Title: Despite masking I got COVID from my boss at work. I’m devastated
Text:I work hybrid in the office twice a week and despite wearing high-quality respirators I have contracted COVID from by boss. I’m devastated. I’ve taken every precaution and because I went to work and had a 1:1 with my supervisor am now unbelievably sick and getting worse.
I managed the dirty looks, people telling me I wouldn’t make it far in the company with an mask and people cornering me in the bathroom to take off my mask.
To be so sick of no fault of my own, as a direct result of someone else’s actions, is hard blow.
And the kicker is I work in healthcare I don’t deal with patients I’m on the corporate end.
I’m three months into this role and I’m starting to look for fully remote roles. But the reality of changing jobs being without money or insurance again is overwhelming.
Has anyone had to deal with these big questions? Does anyone strategies for how to approach HR? I need stability now more than ever.

Title: We’re living in an age of Gaslighting that would make even George Orwell blush 😳
Text:They tell us that a man with Parkinson’s and clear neurological decline is as sharp and cogent as ever and a vast echo chamber agrees. Then, after he starts losing in the polls, they tell us that he is not fit to run anymore but he is still fit enough to be President of the United States and a vast echo chamber agrees. Then, they throw democracy in the trash and ignore the primary voters, (suggesting that polls are the same as votes in determining the will of the voters), and install a different candidate with no stated policy positions so that she can “save democracy”, a vast echo chamber agrees. Then the Olympics starts with mocking Christians and they say we didn’t see what we saw, and a vast echo chamber agrees. Now, we have an Olympic competitor headed for the gold metal in Freestyle Domestic Abuse, and they’re even gaslighting conservatives to throw out their basic biology books and agree that xy chromosomes can mean male or female depending on how your genitals look at birth. This is madness. And it will get worse and worse if good people don’t stand up against this nonsense before all of human history and knowledge is “retconned” for the political purposes of the elite.

Title: Is this normal? Kinda urgent lol
Text:I’ve been self harming recently, and I’ve only ever done cat scratches, no blood or anything idk if that still counts but it is what it is. Today I was doing it on my thigh again but i think I accidentaly applied too much pressure in the moment because the cuts just started bleeding all over my thigh. Ive put a tissue on it and I’m lying down but it still hasn’t stopped, now I’m cold and my legs kind of numb and tingly idk if that’s normal I’m probably being dramatic but is there a faster way to stop the bleeding? I have school tmrw and I need to sort it before I sleep.

Title: De-schooling Eyewear: A Spectacle of Absurdity
Text:Following in the visionary footsteps of Ivan Illich’s crusade to de-school society, I propose we tackle a truly pressing matter: the indoctrination we’ve received regarding eyewear. Yes, eyewear the ultimate fashion accessory disguised as a medical necessity. We’ve sensationalized a disability, turning it into a badge of honor or, worse, a misguided aesthetic statement. What is the ethos of this madness? Is it some warped philosophy of genetic compromise? "Here’s 20/200 vision, but at least you can play the cello"?
Consider the hordes of people who now willingly don glasses without needing them. Why? Is it for aesthetics? A misguided attempt at “ascetics”? Are rimmed lenses the new sackcloth? Have we, as a society, agreed that disability is beautiful and empowering? Hardly. Try showing up with glasses that are too big for your face suddenly, you’re Bubbles from *Trailer Park Boys*, not the hero of a progressive movement. And hearing aids? Don’t hold your breath for the next runway model to rock a pair of those.
But let’s not stop at the surface. The deeper issue here is our cultural obsession with intelligence a fetish, really, for looking the part of the intellectual. Eyewear ha

Title: I bottled my first mead today.
Text:This is the first time I've delved into fermentation besides sourdough. When I bottled it today it made me feel like when I was a little girl making potions out of plants I found in the woods... like I was a "real witch." Funny thing is, I have been practicing for years as an adult - but this felt especially witchy. This brew is names for my friend who just went through a major trauma and came through stronger and wiser. She will be in for surgery this week, so please send her some light and healing energy.

>Conducted And Directed Energy Weapons To Drive Non-Lethal Weapons Market Growth
>The concept of a weapon that is designed merely to temporarily incapacitate, with little or no lasting injury, is relatively new. The development of non-lethal weapons can be viewed as a consequence of the rise of democratic values. The use of lethal force on a nation’s own citizens is often met with dissent and criticism in democracies. The rise of non-lethal weapons has taken place in the last two decades. Non-lethal weapons for anti-personnel purposes have become increasingly high in demand from law enforcement agencies across the world. The new report has calculated that in 2014 the market will be worth $1,630.6M.

Title: Do you think Saturn is tricking the world into eating human? (pork)
Text:Mind Unveiled makes really good banger videos highly recommend him for occult subjects. Do you think pork is human? We’re more similar to pigs than monkeys physically and share characteristics. Pigs also eat ANYTHING so why would you want to eat the creature that eats its own kind and can’t sweat so all the toxins and microplastics get passed on to you when you eat it. I’m not even Muslim but still think Pork is a dirty animal that we shouldn’t eat.

Title: Folks who don’t mask aren’t nearly as progressive as they seem to think they are (a rant)
Text:I hope and pray that no one from this class I’m in sees this post… but if they do I really don’t care because I can’t handle this anymore. I’m a senior in college studying theatre and for the past 2ish years I have been part of this group on campus that does forum theatre and diversity trainings for various companies, organizations, etc. and is heavily based on Augusto Boal’s Theatre of the Oppressed. Back when I first joined, the pandemic was still something that the general public was taking seriously and everyone in the group was masking and taking other precautions like testing if they felt under the weather, avoiding unnecessary contact, etc. But once the government declared the pandemic “over” they immediately dropped any and all precautions despite me being very outspoken about being disabled and high risk and stating that a single infection could further severely disable and potentially even kill me or my other high risk family. As the years have passed, my health has further deteriorated and I’ve been open about it to them and they still couldn’t seem to possibly care less.

Title: The shooter of UnitedHealthcare chief executive Brian Thompson wrote “deny” “defend” “depose” on the shell casings left at the scene, ABC News reports.
Text:Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealth's
[**(UNH.N)**](https://www.reuters.com/markets/companies/UNH.N), insurance unit, was killed on Wednesday morning outside a Midtown Manhattan hotel in what police described as a targeted attack by a gunman lying in wait for him.
Thompson, 50, was shot around 6:45 a.m. ET outside the Hilton on Sixth Avenue, just before the company's annual investor conference. He was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Police said the gunman was at large and they were still investigating a motive.
The words scrawled on the bullets used to kill UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson closely resemble the title of a book criticizing insurance companies and the tactics they use to deny claims, it has been revealed.
Detectives investigating the shooting reportedly found shell casings with the words 'depose', 'deny' and 'defend' inscribed on them.
Curiously, the messages bear similarity to the title of a [**2010 book**](https://archive.is/q6fZJ) on 'why insurance companies don't pay claims and what you can do about it', called 'Delay, Deny, Defend'.
Critics allege the tactic is used by insurance companies to 'ensure your claim is either neve
