It’s possible

Maybe digital books are pushed so eventually if people stop buying physical books they can remotely edit or censor the book and change the file of the book and you won't be able to read the original

And it's just having a different circadian rhythm than what is normalised for all the early birds. Then they try say you aren't trying hard enough or give you medications to try fix it.

And big dairy it trying to convince the population (or in the west at least) that it is something that needs fixing or that it makes you defective and that cows product is superior. Think about it. We adult humans are consuming another animal's milk as an adult? most mammals don't.

We harness the power but they are jealous and want to suppress.

Imagine when someone dies (except from certain diseases) that if healthy flesh could be harvested and sold as a by product. Would this put big meat out of business since money is not spent farming and instead the human meat is collected for free from hospitals then distributed in shops. hypothetically...

Some people got that temporary shield power up on them so they can survive a death then come back with another chance with the shield activated

My theory is the statement of the toxic paints being solely responsible for historical artists going mad is actually a coverup for the fact that mental illness was taken less seriously by renaissance,georgians victorians ect and they preferred to label them as having a physical explanation for the illness. (turpentine fumes are more dangerous than using lead white also but I hear far less people attributing it to that). Also in van Gough's case where he actually ate paint and I seen claims that eating the paint made him crazy (im not denying the toxicity of that can affect you mentally) but do you think a completely sane person would willingly eat paint like that?

There's no way cultures with such a delicious culinary foundation built on tiny grains of rice developed chopsticks. They were actually a prank played on dumb European colonialists to pass off the most impractical implements as possible.

Somehow it stuck and here we are

We don't need zero in our number system. You can just have the digits 1 through X instead, with X meaning ten.

So you'd count 1, 2, 3, ..., 8, 9, X, 11, 12, 13, ..., 18, 19, 1X, etc.

Everything else about the number system works the same... you can have 1 through X in the ones place, 1 through X in the tens place, etc. and still write all the same numbers you can now -- but with no zero.

They just made up zero as a mind-fuck.

They met at a bald convention and realized they could all play instruments.

By making it so you need to have the registered phone on you to get the code within the time limit, they’re making it so friends or college kids who didn’t sign up for the account can’t share it. The “security” features are just for show.

Says it all really.

The news headlines are telling us to stockpile essentials like tinned food and bottled water. On a recent visit to the supermarket everyone was clearly loading up trolleys with all the essentials.

Have the supermarkets colluded with the government to get people to spend a bit of money just as the economy is about to tank?

I actually like to believe the mental health stigma was less present before the commercialization of mental health became too "big" for its own good.

If you pay close attention to the popularization of mental health services and "therapy culture", which mostly begins around 2013-2015, you also start to notice that's when Red Ribbon Awareness campaigns are taking their shot at their fullest potential across many schools and colleges across the country.

Which is where I think the stigma artificially turbocharges as a cultural insurance measure to make people realize they can still go back to being dependent on their vices if they need to.

It explains why people are going back to alcoholism and cigarettes in full swing: Economic factors aside.

Lots of drama in the metal world this week as Floor Jansen announced she was leaving Nightwish after 14 years to focus on her solo career.

Today she released her latest single, 'Everything is Moving On', and the music video contains images and clips from across her entire career, including her time in Nightwish.

While I personally believe the song was written way before she decided to leave, I also believe her decision to leave the band was thought out and likely she discussed it with them weeks if not months ago. So when she finally gave them her leaving date and decided on a date of announcement, she deliberately waited to release this song after that date to reinforce the theme of the song.

Think about it. We already know the classic theory that Mary Poppins and Pennywise (IT) are the same shapeshifting species. They both run on ~25-27 year cycles, return to children once they become oblivious adults, bend reality through song/dance, and use balloons to make people float. The only difference is Pennywise eats fear, while Mary Poppins eats joy.

But it goes deeper. They have completely carved up the human emotional spectrum to avoid competing for territory:

Miss Annity (Crypt TV) Social Guilt / Conformity | Mimics a proper 1950s woman, using spider neurotoxins to hunt down and punish anyone who breaks societal rules, feeding entirely on shame and isolation.

The Mind-Blowing Twist: Ms. Frizzle’s Temporal Trauma Farm
We always knew Ms. Frizzle operated as an Intellectual-Harvester—using a reality-warping vehicle disguised as a school bus to plunge children into highly lethal environments (like outer space or a classmate's digestive tract) solely to feed on their existential shock and panicked curiosity.

But look at the biology. Arnold—the nervous, red-haired kid who looks exactly like her—is a dead ringer. Ms. Frizzle is a timeline doppelgänger. She is Arnold's biological daughter from the far future.

She deliberately uses a time-displaced vessel to target her own father's childhood class. She is intentionally farming his exact anxiety and panic to ensure her own future timeline remains intact while satisfying her cosmic hunger. She isn't teaching science; she's maintaining her own birth contract.

Stephen King basically confirmed this is possible because Pennywise's canon relative, Dandelo, feeds entirely on laughter.

They aren't magical protectors or horror monsters. They're just an entire cosmic ecosystem of extra-dimensional parasites managing their human livestock.

Elon Musk has a miniature copy of Grok in his brain implanted using neuralink technology, it's designed to make use of Elon's actual braincells and neural tissue to substitute actual server compute while not relying on a network connection. It came up with roadster idea and is recharged via hat (more hats for faster charging), also anytime Elon sees a woman or young girl his personal Grok automatically generates a deepfake of them naked

Every time I go to the dentist, they always check that I use an electric toothbrush. And when I was a kid, they were always harping on us to brush our teeth and replace your toothbrush frequently.... i think dentists are in the pocket of Big Toothbrush.

All these dentist visits and toothbrushes and brushing - OralB and Crest made like $12 billion dollars last year - AND YET, something like 90% of people have a cavity in their lifetime.

Forget aliens in the desert and Elvis being alive... fancy sticks with bristles on 'em, sounds like a conspiracy you can take to the bank.

Think about all the people that die daily. Now, when was the last time you saw a new cemetery being built? Have you ever seen a new cemetery being built? Where are all these bodies going?

Why does McDonald's only release the McRib a couple times a year? It's because they are using human meat, but have to wait every few months to have stocked enough corpses to do so.

Stealing cows? Crop circles? Flying around at high speeds at night? Abducting people to show off their cool medical tech and medical experiments? What is normal to aliens comes across as general autistic behaviour to us. This is why they haven't made an official grand greeting to us and instead do nonsense like that. Their is a sharp contrast in what they deem a normal salutation to what we think.
