I don’t need to believe in Wi-Fi I just need to see that my phone is connected to the internet. The existence of Wi-Fi can be inferred by me having access to YouTube.
Shout out to my broken coworker who brought his crystals in to work one day to fix our negative energy. After carefully placing each stone according to universal leylines of good vibes, extraordinarily pleased with himself, immediately saw me slice through a package and into my fingers. I needed eleven stitches.
Negative energy can never be removed, only transferred. He obviously didn’t like you, the skeptic, so he transferred all the negative energy into you from your other co-workers. /s
That’s just how the magic stones remove the negative energy from your body, through bloodletting
It all makes sense now. The universe balanced my humors.
Destructive dunking is not a constructive way to spread the word of the
lordscienceI do believe that people operate at different vibrational frequencies…like you know the person who comes in the room and there’s just a creepy dark energy? It happens. Its not voodoo weird stuff but there’s definitely a 6th sense about people that’s present.
It’s more likely a collection of more mundane unconscious observations using all of your more normal senses that get very quickly consolidated in to one intuitive sense of dubious reliability but which in the absence of better information keeps you a bit safer.
WiFi IS real. “Auras”, “Vibes” and “Crystal Energy” is magical nonsense.
The only real magic is friendship.
Purple sparkle and the color gang approves this message.
And magnets.
That shit interacts unlike any other object we normally encounter.
That’s just what big WiFi wants you to think so they can sell you more WiFi
Open your eyes sheeple! And also remember to buy my $499 online course on how to make the vibrations of your aura more positive or somethingCan you teach me to vibrate into alternate universes like The Flash? 'Cause I don’t like this one that much.
What if you vibrate into an alternate universe, but the Earth isn’t in the same place?
Absolutely! But that’s not covered until the Level 2 course, which is an in-person retreat.
They aren’t “powering everything”. JFC go lick a wall outlet, that’s what powers many things. WiFi is information, and indeed, they try to make it use less and less power.
It could power stuff. Tesla was working on it, and there have been a few small companies over the years that have done it.
Just turns out that it’s not very practical compared to a wall socket.
Heard some conspiracy folks mention negative frequencies from 5G and the like. It’s just a phase I guess…
Negative frequency is a concept in signal processing, and many other domains.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_frequency
Phase could be the thing, beats me, it’s been a while. Negative resistance is also another one of those concepts that pop up now and then, specifically negative differential resistance.
Oh god, it’s been a long time since I took Vibrations and Waves, but I still remember filling notebook after notebook with Fourier transform equations.
I mean, the signs* are right there in the article
*something something sines
You can map out the inside of a building and figure out where objects are, and when and where movement occurs, with WiFi.
You cannot do this with magic woo woo nonsense that equivocates and conflates terms across different domain specific meanings, and then attempts to build a world view out of confused, meaningless/contradictory gibberish.
Batman taught me this.
I… am not entirely certain whether or not the tech actually existed, when the Dark Night came out, to build the hyper spy system…
But it definitely exists now, to at least some extent.
Fortunately,
the AntichristPeter Thiel is probably more or less in charge of it, so, all good!
I can’t say I tune with your vibes, but I am grooving to your aura.
Must be a Pisces. Classic Pisces vibes lol
fuck. pisceses always make me want sushi.
my piceses, my piceses!
goblin monches on raw wriggling fish
I still ain’t got no sushi dammit. I blame past me. They were, well, occupied by board games.
No sushi and no garlic coffee
DAMMIT i swear on my not so dead mother’s grave I keep remembering at 230 and if I have too late, you know?
Some of the more storied and out there reports of what happened with the remote viewing program in the 80s and 90s pretty much get close to this.
To be fair I very much don’t believe in wifi. I use it, but I still think it doesn’t have what it takes.
You guys, energy, frequency and vibration are all obviously fake. Nobody has ever observed vibration in real life. Go on and try measuring one of those “frequencies”, I’ll wait. Where are you even supposed to find those? “A faucet dripping”? “Your literal heartbeat”? Don’t make me laugh!
I’ll show you some nice vibrations ;-)
NO, put down the taser!
Tuning forks are big fake
Big Tuning Fork are lying to us!
have you tried to find a tuning fork lately? they’re little fake now. i just got an application across my desk asking for a grant for money to put tuning forks in weird places because there’s not enough woo and i’m gonna reject it because it’s a good idea and i want to do it.
Some of them are also small fake
Big Stillness doesn’t want you to know.
I do believe gorilla piss exists.
I do not believe drinking gorilla piss would grant you gorilla strength (citation needed).
well yeah, obviously! You have to dilute it 1000 times for it to have any effect.
well you eyedrop it into your butthole and then expose your butthole to the sun so the positive solar energy modifies it primally because we’re all made of starlight and that’s just how it works
This is why nudist colonies are so vibrant. Easy as.
Dicks out for Harambe. 😔
i think i’m gonna need a demonstration kautau
I’m so tired of this mainstream propaganda.
Like and subscribe and donate to my channel and I’ll reveal all the virility secrets of Gorpee™ brand supplemental smoothies and shakes!
Not with that attitude.
No, no, no, no. You have to sacrifice a goat by dropping it into a volcano and make sure to drink the piss while the goat is still falling. It works, trust me.
Where would we find the citation you say is needed, for what you do not believe?
Trying to legitimize bullshit by using big words out of context and meaning
I absolutely believe in energy, frequency, and vibration. My wifi vibrates at a frequency of 2.4 and 5 GHz and in order to do that it needs to use energy.
Like, I’m down with hippie woo energy work, it’s really useful meditation. I use it to keep my anxiety under control. But your religion can’t cure diseases, it can only provide comfort
Meditation is awesome and useful. But it doesn’t need to be mystical and magical to be great, and I wish more people realized that.
God has not once healed an amputee. What does he have against them?
No longer made in his image?
jealousy that we can keep rocking our body image after losing part of it.
That’s how I feel about astrology. A horoscope is just a prompt for self reflection. But it’s fun when something feels woo woo or predictive or relatable because… its fun, idk. Its spooOoOoOoKy, it’s fun, it’s cute. Star charts are a skill you have to learn, it’s a hobby, it makes your brain work.
yup. i like tarot. it gives me a prompt from which to examine my own thoughts.
The irony of finding two other woo-tolerant Lemmites in this comm.
Once I learned that astrology points to themes of influence on a time frame, it made a lot more sense. Taking it literally and thinking everything is confirmation bias is how people dismiss it. There’s more than a few people that have correctly nailed a lot of big events, it’s more about technique it seems. Nick Dagen Best published a book I think in 2013 or 2016 that is hitting hard right now - totally called Trump 2 and stuck to his guns on that.

I like maps. I like puzzles. Astrology’s both.
First got intrigued when in my ignorant militant atheism dogma phase, and someone managed to discern my sun sign, just by my appearance and behaviours. I have since gone on to do the same to others, typically with as much world-view-changing astonishment in them as I experienced.
Can’t be bunk if that can be done.
The observable profiling reality of it, does open minds to wondering about what’s the astrological weather like.
To put on my obnoxious skeptic hat, it sounds like you are analyzing how the historical conditions of people’s upbringing affects each generations’ behaviors and mannerisms. Just, with an astrological chart rather than with a calendar.
it sounds like you are analyzing how the historical conditions of people’s upbringing affects each generations’ behaviors and mannerisms.
I do not know how it sounds like that to you. Seems a strong non sequitur. Maybe I’m missing something. Care to elaborate how you made this leap?
People who grew up around the same time and geography have the same historical pressures on what behaviors they learn. Obviously outcome varies a lot individual to individual, but it creates broad trends among large groups. Sorting chronologically brings those trends to the forefront.
Maybe can cure some diseases.
Even just via the comfort provided. Comfort enough, to get into a parasympathetic dominant mode long enough for the body to heal itself.
Alopatic medicine cures some stuff but what does most is treat symptoms cause what it wants is to make money not to cure disease, I’m quite sure companies making billions off insuline and chemotherapy aren’t going to even bother trying to cure something they are profiting off, in fact is much probable that they actively try to sabotage research that could end their golden goose disease treatments…
I kinda don’t believe in Energy, in the sense that I find it a useful conserved quantity to calculate stuff. Energy, or other physical quantities like fields “existing” though, is a philosophical question
“It’s funny how people will believe in Newton’s laws of motion but still think the Force from Star Wars is mythical nonsense.”
But the Force is Mass times Acceleration!
Midichlorians are the powerhouse of the Force.
No, it’s the Force so it has to be the Mass times the Acceleration.
Missa times acceleration
No it can’t be then The Force will be equal to The²(Mass times Acceleration)
Its either The mass times acceleration or mass times the acceleration
Where we’re going we don’t need commutative multiplication.
Doc, you can’t just put cocaine in the frunk of a CyberTruck and call it a DeLorean!
the Mass times the Acceleration will equal the2 Force.
You forgot the Lorenz factor. The Falcon flies FTL. That’s where the midichlorians fit in.
fuck me, you got me good I’m mad I laughed as long as I did
I used to love reading W.I.T.C.H. comics and they always had a bunch of fun stuff about zodiacs and reading the future in tea leaves, moons and stars and all that silly stuff. I friggin loved that shit because it was fun for the imagination and it also tied in well with the comic being about a groups magical girls who get their powers from nature and blah blah blah. I thought it was fun to find out what my element was based on what month I was born in and what my birthstone was and take little personality tests to see which one of the girls I was like the most (9 out of 10 times, I got Taranee).
The thing is, though: I always knew it was just play pretend and fun past time stuff.
I have had that fun permanently destroyed for me after people started believing in astrology and magic for real. I know people irl who refer to their zodiacs as an explanation for how they like their coffee or why they push their work to last minute or why they vibe well with this and that person. They take personality tests and believe it for real instead of using it as some stupid past time fun. Online, it’s even worse. It gives me the same level of ick as the women in Sex and the City.
It absolutely fucking ruined the fun for me and I just can’t read my horoscope anymore because I don’t want anyone to think I’m one of those people.
You might enjoy Terry Pratchett’s witches series. There’s magic, but the real trick is solving your problems without ever using it. Wyrd Systers or Wee Free Men are good places to start.
Indeed I do! Granted, it has been a minute since I last visited Terry Pratchett’s Discworld, but I have a goal of gnawing my way through 50 books this year, so I might as well peek back in. Thank you for the reminder!
The map is not the terrain.
Somewhere between naive realism and “some stupid past time fun”, there are maps.
I didn’t even know there was comics, I only knew of the cartoon growing up. I’m the same way, only thing I do is do tarot card readings for me and my gf, we both know it’s just for fun, we also got some cool cards with the images from cyberpunk2077 so there’s that.
In my humble opinion, the first 20-30ish issues are the best ones and then after that the decline is wild and steep. I also never really cared for the TV show. I was so excited when it aired and had been waiting to see the girls move and speak for so long. And then the art style, the color palette, the animation and the voice acting was all ugly and cheap and I never understood why they decided that the color palette should be different shades of piss when the comics were so vibrant and lush. But that is just me. Also, legit, after the comics go into the 30s, the entire franchise crashed and burned. It’s it’s own can of worms and I don’t want to bore you, but that was my first experience with becoming a dedicated fan of something and have a big entertainment company come in and annihilate everything that made the franchise good, run it into the dirt in the most disrespectful way and then cancel it because nobody liked it anymore.
I like tarot cards too. The idea of them, that is. I like the imagery and the many different meanings they hold depending in the combinatiom. Ironically, the whole predicting the future part of tarot cards is the least interesting thing to me, but that’s how I feel about all these witchy things. It’s more so the idea of the weird magic rules and how aesthetic they are that I find so appealing.
