Title: Ontario cuts everything and we all become Covid zombies
Text:# Ontario is doing everything it can to help Covid succeed in our province.
* cancelled stellar wastewater surveillance in summer 2024
* no Novavax vaccine
* no Covid vaccines for non-high-risk until October 28, 2024
* no longer providing rapid antigen test kits to citizens
* implemented Test-to-Treat program: only test those who are eligible for treatment (>65 etc)
* ~~pharmacists can no longer prescribe Paxlovid: must go to GP or ER (?)~~
We don't know if our "cold" is Covid, but it doesn't matter because we are not eligible for treatment. Should we or should we not get the vaccine because that recent "cold" could have been Covid. We don't know the rates in the community because ... no surveillance. Will I develop a taste for brains? Doesn't matter. Covid knocked out my sense of taste.
**EDIT: October 3: GOOD NEWS! My apologies it appears that COSTCO pharmacists will no longer prescribe Paxlovid. I called my local pharmacy (Shoppers) and they said yes they prescribe it. Wow. Sorry for posting incorrect info. It came from a reliable source but they themselves soon realized it may only apply to Costco Canada.**

Title: are people really buying meth water pipes and if so why?
Text:I look on dhgate for cheap glass smoking stuff and there are tons of oil burner meth pipe type bongs. Who are buying these and are they just a novelty item as from my own experience smoking meth there is no need to cool the smoke and you are getting less of a hit as meth is water soluble?
Are the people buying these contraptions the people who burn their meth? Also why are so many people burning their meth as if they are complete noobs?
Remember to get some sleep guys meth aint bad but lack of sleep and such isn't good relative to health!

Title: To any TI being threatened
Text:The aclu has an app called “mobile justice” if you open it and start recording video it gets uploaded to the aclu and to three emails of your choosing. This way if they come for you they can’t delete video of the encounter from your phone. I downloaded it and it gives me a little peace of mind.

Title: Coworkers keep asking me where I think I got Covid from when my coworker tested positive 5 days before me…
Text:He never masks and I was in a meeting room with him the day before he tested positive. I go nowhere besides work and the grocery store, and I don’t even see my family or friends without being in a kn95. I’m high risk, have LC, and am so frustrated that I did everything “right” but still couldn’t avoid it.
But what do you mean where did I get it?! Maybe the only person who tested positive on our tiny team who comes to work sick???

Title: The pandemic struck just after I turned 21
Text:And I (25nb/afab) often feel really sad about what I might be out doing in my early 20’s if I wasn’t Covid cautious & masking. Any of my other early 20’s feel a sense of grief about the loss of spontaneity & wild adventures that seem to characterize most ppls early 20s??
I still go out dancing masked in an N95 on occasion but I’m not just out partying or going to events that seem otherwise cool bc of Covid safety and I just get sad :( I also came into my identity as disabled at 22 so I’ve been putting a lot of thought into my health & energy output for a few years now. It makes me really sad listening to my millennial friends talk about all the wild things they did in their early 20’s and thinking that I’ll never have that sense of freedom to idk… get really spontaneous and makeout with someone at a club and then hookup or otherwise get into shenanigans? I’m also struggling bc I am desiring casual physical relationships and it would be so much easier if I didn’t gaf about Covid, but I do & my options to hookup are so narrowed bc of it. Thankfully I live in a city w a decent covid cautious community but still…
I wanna be young, free, hot & have fun!!😩 I wanna make the mistakes th

Title: I got some false flag content I can post for you guys.
Text:The truth is that the government lets these attacks happen. Real or not they always have an impact on people. They cause the reaction the intended. Race wars,banning the ar 15 and more. There’s proof everywhere if you know where to look. I can give examples. The 2013 Boston marathon bombing (the FBI knew about them) 2022 Tops Buffalo shooting. (Payton Gendron was in contact with a retired FBI agent) If you’d like to read any of the articles talking about this dm me.

Title: Saw a new doctor today and masks were mandatory
Text:Everyone in the clinic is wearing a mask. Even the staff. All patients. Yes they’re only surgical masks but I’m honestly so happy and relieved I’m tearing up. It’s always so scary seeing a new doctor and wondering if they see my mask as “anxiety”. That won’t happen today! 😁
ETA this is what the sign said
All patients and visitors should be wearing a mask in this office
Please keep your mask on at all times
If you do not have a mask, let us know and we will give you one for free
They have “OMA - Ontario medical association” on the sign as well.

Title: I did something small at work that I was proud of
Text:So, where I work, on paper we have a policy that people aren't supposed to attend work while sick with respiratory symptoms (and if they have to + symptoms are resolving, they must wear a mask while showing any symptoms). This isn't perfect, but I see it as better than nothing. Some people follow it, some people don't.
This fall, we all got a message saying something like "it's cold season, make sure you cough into your elbow and wash your hands." I hesitated but decided to write to the HR people involved and let them know that this doesn't seem consistent with our own policy, and confirm that we do still have that policy - because if so, we shouldn't need to rely on the "elbow technique," which really isn't helpful for airborne diseases like Covid (to say the least). I feel pretty self-conscious already due to the things I avoid and do differently at work, but I was glad to see myself speak up directly, and that nothing bad came of it (and in fact, the more protective policy will likely be reiterated now. That's all. Very glad this community exists.

Title: My Covid minimizer friend thinks I have an undisclosed medical condition instead of being Covid-cautious.
Text:Please make it make sense! We got snubbed most of last year by decades-long friends because I asked to meet up virtually. One year later, they asked again, and I reacted again with Covid precautions. Here is the response I received from them:
\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~\~
*"I am reading this and wondering if you have a medical condition we are not aware of. Did your doctor tell you to take these precautions? I have an immunocompromised friend, but even she was never told to do these things.*
*Zoom is unfortunately not a recourse any more since they cut you off after 45 minutes, unless you are paying for a subscription. I really don't see a difference between you going to shop with tons of people in a confined area and between going for a walk in a park. As a matter of fact, I think the latter is a healthier undertaking.*
*Btw, I still haven't had COVID. I disinfect my hands after I touch things that could be a problem.*
*Again, we may not be aware of a medical condition since we haven't spoken for so long."*

Title: Congratulations to Trump, first candidate to win the election 3 times
Text:Tonight is further proof of the rigged 2020 election.
The only election in history were states at 99% reporting with +4-6 in favor of Trump were flipped days later via mass "mail-in-ballots" favoring a decrepit old fool who was never popular to begin with and was trending in 6th place in the DNC Primaries before the astroturfing.
The mainstream media including Reddit is completely in bed with the alphabet soup agencies and they all need to be shunned and boycotted, for spreading an inane and insane amount of propaganda and lies.
However, make no mistake, Trump was _allowed_ to win tonight, i.e. repeat of the 2016 election in terms of election decision and vote counting timeline. The deep state simply decided 2020 belonged to someone else, and that was that. The mainstream media and the political class fell in line.

Title: Balloon animal balloons
Text:You know, those very long skinny balloons used to make balloon animals.
These are WEIRD to play with!
The counterintuitive thing about inflation these (with air or water) is that each segment of balloon wants to be either fully deflated or fully inflated, and so if you squeeze one inflated part it kind of magically pops up in a totally different part like whack-a-mole.
I have one in my stomach now with kind of a shocking amount of water in it, tied off with a knot. I didn't really "swallow" it the normal way but instead I swallowed a long deflated end, then compressed the part inflated with water that was in my mouth, until it disappeared there and magically appeared in my stomach!
I have one with even more water in it here and I'm working up the nerve to do the same thing with it. It's seriously the size of a small erect cock (like 4" or so and girthy).
Anyone else ever play with these crazy things?

Title: Nietzsche would have loved the first Van Halen album (1978)
Text:That album is pure 100% rock n' roll sexual energy. Totally Dionysian. If "Dionysus" is, as Nietzsche writes, the "overflowing Hellenic instinct", which can only be explained as "an *excess* of strength", if at the heart of Dionysian art is the "orgiastic rite", and if "the *fundamental fact*" of the Hellenic instinct is its "will to life" (*Twilight of the Idols*, Ancients 4), then this is it in the 20th century.
Nietzsche is the kinda guy who would have secretly loved that album but not show it publicly because it would make him look too plebeian.

Title: Deeply unfun time to have HCWs as friends.
Text:Friends with 2 HCWs. One just came back from an international trip and the other... from Vegas.
No, of course they don't mask.
Yes, of course both of them are horribly sick.
Yes, of course one went to work (with a surgical mask) and the other had to be persuaded out of going to work today.
I understand their point of view TO AN EXTENT, because hospital culture is horrible about letting people take time off (both are residents). One at least took a single antigen test that was negative (only swabbed nose, likely). But it's still ridiculous behaviour to me. They both brush off nosocomial infections like they're no big deal. One confidently told me viral persistence in Covid isn't a thing.
I have Long Covid and pre existing chronic illness. I am currently terrified of going to hospitals and WITH GOOD REASON. Because of stuff like this.
Also one of them may have given me Covid even though I wore a mask because I briefly took it off outdoors around them (my mistake). Time will tell if I'm actually sick or if it's another LC flare.

Title: This was tone matched by some Hum hearers [Sound: Hum] "In the USA to between 30-80 Hz with quasi-periodic modulation between .5 and 5 Hz." "Ionospheric heaters (HAARP)can also produce PC1 anomalies like the ones seen with the Hum."

The Hum, a consequence of human influence on space weather deduced from personal experience, the link with geomagnetic pulsation parameters.
Dr Chris Barnes Bangor Scientific Consultants.
E-mail [email protected]
Dr Barnes Homepage http://www.drchrisbarnes.co.uk
Abstract
It has recently been shown that the Hum may be due to interaction between world power systems of different frequency standards. Power systems influence space weather so the question is posed can space weather predict the Hum? Subjective Hum levels on specific dates are compared with space weather reports from a reliable source and with spectra from the Kiruna induction magnetometer. Positive conclusions are drawn and the future use of such data for Hum prediction ought to be possible. Links with earthquake prediction are also highlighted.
Introduction
The Hum is an electro-acoustic phenomenon known about since the 1970's and recently receiving much more press publicity and scientific credence. Those afflicted either physically hear or otherwise somehow perceive a characteristic sound. This was tone matched by some Hum hearers

Title: Happy philosophy day :) (For Ouroboros)
Text:I was walking in the woods one day, minding my own business. In front of me a patch of lilies perched on glittering water. As I bent down to get a closer look the forest around me seceded and sprawling metropolis crept in. I could feel my heart race as passerby's pushed my shoulders escorting me away. In that crowd I could see my own mother and father, my lover, and even a reflection of the city itself.
I could hardly hear myself think, As ambition spilt like blood and on the streets splattered. Like Midshipmen grasping the oiled flag pole with only bodies to use as leverage.
After the end of this mess of noise I see my simple pleasures all in line waiting to shake my hand. Each one telling me I made the most of it, that I did my best, before finally patting me on the back and lowering my head to stoop for the door.
Upon entering this foreign place I found myself back in the woods, a few minutes had passed and those lilies were right there staring back at me.

Title: President Musk Unveils Bold Plan To Retire Politicians 65 And Older, Accidentally Fires Trump In The Process
Text:In a move touted as “revitalizing American leadership,” President Elon Musk announced a sweeping policy to mandate retirement for all politicians aged 65 and above.
The initiative, dubbed the “Silver Sunset Act,” was designed to bring in younger, more innovative leaders but inadvertently ousted Musk’s long-time ally Donald Trump. When asked about the unintended consequence, Musk tweeted, “Oops. Guess the simulation wanted this outcome 🤷♂️.” Trump responded by calling it “the most unfair, rigged retirement ever,” vowing to make Mar-a-Lago the capital of his new “Senior MAGA Nation.”
Critics, meanwhile, are concerned the policy leaves Congress vulnerable to being overrun by tech CEOs with no retirement plans of their own.

But it’s all I can do. It takes a steady diet of scary Covid articles to even halfway keep my spouse on the same page. I feel like I’m living in some parallel universe to everyone else.

We are already small and fighting an uphill battle, the last thing we need is to be fighting with each other. I am not just talking here on Reddit (although I have seen it here, too), but mostly on Facebook and Twitter/X. I'm in several Still Coviding FB groups, and follow a bunch of people on X and Threads, and OMG it feels like it just keeps getting worse.
I even got reamed out not too long ago for answering a question someone asked, something like "is there anywhere you feel safe unmasking?" and I replied that if my neighbors are not out, I do like to enjoy fresh air in my yard with no mask and at least three people jumped on me that I was being unsafe and "NOWHERE OUTSIDE IS SAFE" and "people like you are part of the problem". I am one of the most cautious people I know and I take a TON of precautions. It just made me feel horrible.
I also read a thread on X of someone getting absolutely ripped apart for sending their kid to school (masked), saying they were setting them up to be infected, one way masking doesn't work, etc. But not every one can homeschool and sending the

Title: [Mind Control: CIA: MK-ULTRA] “psychic driving,” which involved the repetition of a recorded message a few seconds in length thousands of times for up to 20 hours at a time.”
Text:https://www.raynemarrow.com/post/psychic-driving
The lengths people have gone through to control the human mind, and the experiments and torture many have experienced under the name of research is heartbreaking. Many have been manipulated from within, where their thoughts are not their own.
In doing research for my latest work-in-progress, and in my desire to not repeat myself, I’ve been looking at experimental psychiatry, and specifically brainwashing.
Much is written regarding biological and chemical testing, but I wanted to peel back the veil to understand the psychological testing and some aspects thereof.
Psychic Driving
Dr. D. Ewan Cameron, a renowned experimental psychiatrist, could be considered the father of the term psychic driving. “In the early 1950s, he developed experiments designed to test theories about changing human thought patterns and personality through a technique called “psychic driving,” which involved the repetition of a recorded message a few seconds in length thousands of times for up to 20 hours at a time.”1
In 1959, a headline of the Montreal Gazette, dated July 15, 1959, screamed Psychic Driving’ Technique Possible. The idea of “c

Text:There have been an absurd amount of posts lately saying things like, “how can i get tools to cut?”, “how can I cut without my parents noticing?”, or “how do I start cutting?”, only for users to actually *give them instructions* instead of just discouraging them.
This is a subreddit made for self-harm support, not supporting self-harm.
Please, there are so many young and impressionable people here and it’s frankly horrifying to see how many users on this subreddit seem to be completely okay with encouraging them to start this horrible coping mechanism.
We’re better than this.

Title: Straw chandelier/himmeli for the longest night
Text:Finished braiding the hanging string for the himmeli I made this year. And obviously wanted to share, since I feel this sub would appreciate it. And maybe someone needs decidedly pagan ideas for celebrating and decorating.
As far as I can tell it’s rather specific to my corner of the north, though original usage is very reminiscent of ceiling “crowns” built in medieval times across Europe for the midwinter celebration.
Originally it was carried to the house only on the Yule eve, to a clean space, hung over the main table, and kept there from midwinter to midsummer to guarantee grain in the house.
Traditional one wouldn’t have more than straw, and hung with horse hair from ceiling to make it dance in the air, but I wanted stones to mine. Carnelian, golden tigers eye, and aventurine. Blood on snow, and golden light of the winter sun. And the gold of the warm light of the hearth in the winter dark.
Reindeer antlers are accidental, I have them hanging by the window to whiten them.

Title: Swallowing Sockets: Update
Text:Since a few of you asked for an update on the sockets. The first two I swallowed last week were in-and-out within 24 hours. No signs of corrosion or any kind of wear on them. They were 3/8" & 7/16"
I ended up swallowing three more on Friday: 7/16" 3/8" & 11/32" \~\~\~ only felt a little bit of discomfort in my stomach from the weight sitting in one spot at the bottom since I hadn't eaten all day. Went away once I did. But so far have only gotten back the 3/8".
All that being said, made a weird observation with my endocam that looked like there could have been some kind of residue from the sockets shining all over on my stomach walls.

Title: My partner just defended his MSc thesis and every single person was masked
Text:I’m housebound with long Covid/mecfs so I couldn’t attend. My partner masks everywhere and often asks others to ask during meetings etc (we provide the N95s). I was very nervous with the thought of him being in an unventilated room with unmasked people so he asked his supervisor if everyone could wear masks. The supervisor said yes. Some people brought their own masks but we also supplied N95s and KN95s. Every single person masked. These people don’t normally mask, but the fact they did so without any complaint was awesome and gives me a wee bit of hope. And I’m so proud of my introverted partner for continuously enforcing his boundaries for the sake of our health.
Maybe one day I can return to university safely!
Edit: thank you so much everyone for the kind words. Today was really awesome for so many reasons. I teared up a few times. I’m glad to see it’s given everyone some extra hope. ❤️

Title: "I don't associate with people who wear masks"
Text:Just encountered a new kind of masking discrimination while walking my dog. Ran into a guy in my neighborhood walking his dog. Both his dog and my dog have met and get along well. I've also met this man, prior to a massive Covid surge when I wasn't masking outdoors.
During that initial meeting (two years ago) we chatted for a good 30 minutes, he told me of his struggles to leave Romania and come to the US, and we talked about being healthy (weight loss specifically) and just initial meeting chit-chat.
Today, while on a walk with my dog (masked) I encountered him and his dog. My dog ran up to his to say hello. He scowled at me and scooped his dog up quickly.
I said, "It's okay they've met before and get along great!" He then said "I don't associate with people who wear masks" WTF dude??
He walked past as I told him he's an ignorant SOB and that I'm still the same person he met initially, just trying to keep myself safe. This was a new one for me. Usually I get coughed on, or shoulder checked. We truly live in the upside down.

I hope he joins the list of A-listers who have cried for years that if Trump gets elected/re-elected, they're moving out of the country, **and that they actually go through with it this time**, because Leo's pedo ass has needed to go FOR A WHILE NOW! He's been doing this shit in plain fucking sight with Duper's Delight all over his punchable face because they're all just legal enough to not be criminal. Imagine what he's doing - and with whom - behind closed fucking doors...
I hope they ALL go down, every single last one of them!

Title: Zersetzung: A Survivor's Story
Text:I'm not a fan of the name of this subreddit, and it often discourages me from posting. The term 'gang stalking' is misleading, as it implies a group of individuals acting independently. While government agencies or other organizations might utilize groups to carry out these tactics, the method is more accurately described as organized harassment/stalking, or Zersetzung.
If we continue to use the term 'gang stalking,' I fear that many people won't take the issue seriously or empathize with those affected.
But anyway for now,
Has anyone listened to this podcast? [https://www.npr.org/programs/invisibilia/876582613/trust-fall](https://www.npr.org/programs/invisibilia/876582613/trust-fall)
It's a story about a guy who tried to expose a major German company called Wirecard as a scam. He ended up being targeted by the company, experiencing a brutal campaign of harassment ('Zersetzung'). This insidious form of psychological warfare, which I can personally attest to Germany's mastery of, involved tactics such as surveillance, mind games, manipulation, hacking, and threats.
I believe many people who have been targeted by malicious individuals would resonate with this story. The constant

Title: Do they realize that humans need to breathe?
Text:I am in a room.
Let me tell you about this room.
It is currently occupied by eighteen people, all of whom have PhDs. It’s in a stately old historic building, so there is zero—and I mean literally zero—ventilation. When we entered the room, one window was open. The event organizer closed it because of road noise (which I admit was loud and distracting). The event organizer then closed the one door to the room because of minor passing noise in the hall. I waited a bit, “visited the restroom,” and propped the door open on my way back in. For a blessed half an hour, we were not in a completely sealed-off space.
And then someone walked by in the hall, and the event organizer closed the door again.
This is not even about covid (although I will mention that no one but me is masking and we've got one noticeably sick person in attendance). Everyone in this room is visibly hot and uncomfortable. More to the point, everyone in this room is an animal actively performing respiration. None of us is some kind of sentient plant being. None of us is an anaerobic bacterium. None of us is a goddamned sperm whale with lungs the size of cars. The CO2 level is rising as I type this.

Text:I used to post here all the time. Words of bewilderment and sadness. I come here today because i almost relapsed. I want to get high more than anything else. I want to feel hedonistic. I want to feel released from responsibility. To feel the dopamine cover my brain with lust. The urge to dive into a porn created blackhole.
But atlas, that pleasure would be temporary and soon forgotten and replaced with despair and turmoil as my dopamine receptors slowly die. Ill be left angry and full of regret once again. Alone once again..alone again...again i would be alone.
Today im not alone. I live in a sober living with 14 cool guys. We dont know exactly what life is. But we arent alone. Fuck being alone.

Again, could be a nonsense comparison, but felt like pointing it out. Another possible clue linking ‘The Three-Body Problem’ to alchemy is the Trisolarans place of origin (Alpha Centauri). This system consists of three stars, which overlap in the Alpha Centauri system, appearing as a single bright star to the naked eye.
Researcher Tim Mitchell has suggested that the three stars comprising Alpha Centauri symbolize the Holy Trinity (three-in-one). The eternal God is revealed as the Father, Son, a

Title: Can't stop thinking about "plane lady" and the military appointed replacement citizen and influencer who replaced her.
Text:This is the "that MFer is not real" lady on the right. On the left, is the military appointed replacement citizen, Tiffany Gomas, who replaced her.
I don't know why I can't let this one go. Everything about it is so troubling and strange. Like why would Ms. Gomas dress in the same clothes and give an interview as if she was the plane lady? Why not just have the real plane lady come out with something simple like "ah gee I hit the airport bar after taking some ambien, and boy let me tell you how sorry I am for the scare."
Instead, we got some interviews where the government dolled up Ms Gomas as if she were this woman. It stands in stark contrast with plane lady's freakout video. The badge cam footage where she gets trespassed is completely out of this world.
Plane Lady undoubtedly saw something incredibly troubling. Lizard people? A skin walker? An alien? What could the government be hiding that they'd go so far out of their way to replace her?
And yes, I know how photos work. I understand focal length and how it doesn't change the sound of a person's voice, their ears, their bite, their hips and nearly everything about her, because she is an entirely different person.

Title: Had a non-cautious overnight guest. Here's how it went.
Text:In the last few months I have been spending more time with family, and have been masking during all of it. I've asked family to mask when in my house, as well.
I have a cousin who is my age and one of my best friends, and she wanted to stay the night. So, I put her upstairs (we don't use that part of the house, it's a short term rental, long story), kept the door between the upstairs and downstairs closed, ran the CR box, and had her mask anytime she was downstairs. We spent most of the time on my patio doing crafts and sitting by the fire pit, enjoying the lovely weather. It was delightful and worked out so well!
I have a friend who also wants to visit and said she would mask for a week before coming to see me so we could unmask together. ☺️
Just wanted to share something positive that's happened. Hang in there everyone.

Title: [Electricity: Rewiring Circuit Breakers] [Emitters: Home] Hard wired smoke detector emitting ultrasound though no smoke. No battery. Military had rewired smoke detector to circuit breaker #12 which I keep on during the daytime.
Text:Three years ago, the smoke detector intermittently emitted high pitched chirping. There was never any smoke in my home. No one was cooking. I was surprised that the smoke detector did not have a battery to replace. I hired a handyman but the new smoke detector was not compatible with the wiring in the wall. I left the old smoke detector in the wall as I erroneously had believed it had stopped chirping.
Two years ago, I intermittently heard high pitched chirping from the smoke detector. I was going to have it removed but again I had erroneously believed it had stopped chirping. No smoke. Ultrasound Detector app always measured ultrasound.
Ditto this year. A guest complained about the noise from the smoke detector. I couldn't hear it. My hearing was permanently impaired by the hum. The smoke detector was in line of sight to the left side of my head while sitting on the couch. Ultrasound was pulsing my left ear drum, BROCA's area and corner of my left eye.
A handyman removed the smoke detector leaving a large hole in the wall. He installed a wall lamp with a pull chain to cover the hole. We tested which circuit breaker turned on the wall lamp. #12. However, previously #15 circu

Title: I went to a massage therapist and she saw me masking and immediately scrambled to mask
Text:Mostly just venting but WHY can’t most doctors do this? I brought an extra mask because I couldn’t remember if I had them already in my car, so I was able to offer it to her instead because what she had wasn’t the greatest option. It was individually wrapped so she gladly accepted.
I have spent the year being scared to even say yes when offered because I already have anxiety in my chart and I haven’t been feeling well with zero answers. My Graves’ disease diagnosis was brushed off because of my anxiety diagnosis so I’m terrified it’ll happen again. I got so sick believing it was all in my head. At the end of the day the doctor gives me more anxiety when they ask vs whether they wear one or not.
I wonder if she had any idea that just insisting to wear one and to show she cared meant so much?

Every election since 2022 has gone in favor of the Dems, even when MAGA wasn’t on the ballot. We are outraising MAGA at every level of government. Project 2025 is gaining more negative traction than ever. Every single election with abortion rights has gone in favor of us, and I don’t see that changing now.
Maybe nominating Harris is what we need. A young outspoken/no-bullshit woman in charge who will call out Trump straight towards his face—and I don’t care to hear about how she is a cop, or how we should vote third-party in protest. If there’s one thing I hate about the left, it’s that there’s too much infighting instead of looking at the real picture.
There’s a reason why we don’t see Trump vocally trashing Harris as much as he did with Biden. He’s TERRIFIE

Title: Trump Supporters Inhale Deeply After President Farts During Rally
Text:Wildwood, NJ- At a MAGA rally tonight in New Jersey, fans of the President started inhaling deeply after President Trump farted.
The fart startled Trump who then claimed that he thought he heard Hillary Clinton’s voice.
Fans started cheering intensely, with one obese lady who was wearing Trump short shorts shouting, “Your farts are more intelligent than her!”
Trump said, “you may be right! In fact come on up sweetie!”
The lady who was cheered on by her Trump supporting peers was asked by President Trump if she’s ever met a President.
“No! But I have now!” The supporter said.
Trump then said to the lady, “you know Melania says my farts stink. But I don’t think they do. Would you like to do the honors of smelling my farts?”
The Trump supporting lady started screaming and said “Of Course! Anything Mr. President.”
The woman then bent down and Trump farted in her face, after which, dozens of supporters were tackled by Secret Service after trying to charge onto the stage to smell the fart.
Trump then asked the supporter what she thought and the lady said the fart smelled better than she has ever smelled in her life.
Trump laughed then said, “You may be right!”

Title: "Trump Praises Assad’s Fall: ‘Now That’s How You Do a Coup—January 6th Would’ve Worked If I Had Tanks!’"
Text:PALM BEACH, FL — Former President Donald Trump shocked allies and critics alike with his reaction to the collapse of Bashar al-Assad’s regime in Syria, reportedly marveling at the event as an example of “how to execute a proper coup,” while lamenting that his own efforts on January 6th fell short.
According to sources close to Trump, the former president was glued to cable news coverage of the uprising that toppled Assad, muttering, “Unbelievable. Just incredible. You see this? Tanks, helicopters, full commitment—that’s what I was missing. These people know how to win.”
During a closed-door dinner at Mar-a-Lago, Trump reportedly told his guests that Assad’s downfall should be studied by “future patriots.” “If my crowd on January 6th had come in with half that energy—and maybe an armored vehicle or two—we’d still be in the White House,” he said, pausing to complain that his Diet Coke was too flat.
Trump didn’t stop there. “The problem wasn’t the people. I had the best people,” he continued. “The problem was Pence. If he had just played along, we could’ve had a very smooth transition—into me staying president. Instead, I get a guy who can’t even stand up to a mob. Weak. So w

Title: An ancient statue of the Egyptian god Iah holding a cube in their hand
Text:The statue in the image below depicts the Egyptian god Iah, who was the god of time in ancient Egyptian mythology. Statues like this one were created in the Late Period (circa 664–332 BCE) or during the Ptolemaic period (circa 305–30 BCE), when there was a resurgence in the creation of such religious artifacts. Representations of Iah date from the Middle Kingdom (circa 2055–1650 BCE) through to the later periods of Egyptian history. So, who is Iah? From the 1901 book ‘Revelation of Metatron’, we read: “Aramaic: Iah (יה). Most translators treat this word as an acronym for Yahweh, and therefore translate it as ‘H’, however, it is also a way to spell Iah. Iah is treated as an acronym for Yahweh by Jews, however, it was also the name of the Egyptian moon god Iah, also pronounced as ‘Yahw’. As the Revelation of Metatron uses the name Yahweh (יהוה) many times, is it more likely that the use of יה is intended to represent Iah, regardless of whether it refers to the Moon god or Yahweh. Without knowing the origin of the text it’s hard to know how Iah should be interpreted, however, as the entire Enochian tradition appears to be a continuation of the Baalist religion, and Iah would not have

Title: Theory behind gangstalking datapoint collection.
Text:**DISCLAIMER** I know this isn't a political sub, and that people of all political stripes are/can be victims of gangstalking, but the connections are too blatant to ignore.
Project2025 is a US centered [blueprint and manifesto](https://www.project2025.org/) for a Christo-nationalist state. Project2025 aims to persecute LGBTQIA people, surveil women (especially pregnant women), roll back civil rights of minorites and oppress any and all forms of dissent; political, religious and otherwise. It also aims to install personnel with blind loyalty (akin to GS perps) throughout all levels of government and implement dictatorial-style "leadership" with unilateral powers to do the above as they please. I can only speak of my own personal experiences with gangstalking, and I do not know all of your personal stories and experiences, but based on my own ordeal and what slander and lies the perps spread about me I believe I have been preemptively marked as an enemy of this agenda.

Title: Comparing symbolism from the Netflix show 3 Body Problem to the painting ‘The Ordering of Paradise’ (1855) by Michelangelo Caetani which is related to themes of ascension to Heaven and spiritual order
Text:Symbolism similar to ‘The Ordering of Paradise’ (1855) by Michelangelo Caetani (as shown below on the right) is depicted in ‘The Three-Body Problem’ (as can be appreciated below).
The painting by Caetani is related to themes of ascension to Heaven and spiritual order. The painting, rich in religious symbolism, represents Caetani’s interpretation of the divine structure of paradise and the celestial hierarchy. It depicts a spiritual journey towards enlightenment and the divine, aligning with traditional Christian concepts of ascending to Heaven and achieving spiritual perfection.
This shared symbolism between ‘The Three-Body Problem’ and the painting (as shown below) tells us that Jin’s journey through the VR world, where she faces various challenges, including moral tests, may have been more than a tool of recruitment for the aliens, it could have been a spiritual journey — a metaphorical journey to Heaven.
We can see that this idea is expounded upon when Will buys Jin a star under the organization “The Stars Are Our Destination” whose logo resembles a stairway to Heaven. Their logo shows a pathway leading to an 8-pointed star (see the 8-pointed stars in the image below).

Hi, I’m a mom of a 13 year old depressed, suicidal, self harming teenager. I need help so I can better help him. Specifically I need help from the kids going through this, not the parents. Because honestly, let’s be real, we as parents always seem to get it wrong. I don’t want to get it wrong. I want to help him. I want to do it right. What can I do to help him?! I have listened. I haven’t judged or gotten upset when he has told me about his self harming. I gave him the opportunity to tell me what I did wrong that led to his depression and anger and hurt, which he didn’t do, but I know I’ve played a part in it. I apologized for my part and for not knowing my part..I told him I loved him and how much I loved him. I took him to a psychiatrist to get him on anti depressants and anti anxiety medication, I listened when he said he had thoughts of suicide…I just don’t feel like psychiatric hospitals are helpful to teens in complete honesty when it comes to mental health issues and suicide. Am I wrong? I feel like it makes it worse. The seclusion, the feeling of “being shipped away” what, as teens did you want and need during the depression and suicid

Title: The Philosophy of Cynicism
Text:**Good morning!**
Today’s newsletter is all about keeping it real or maybe too real. We’re diving into the world of cynicism, a philosophy that embraces the idea that society’s conventions and material desires are distractions from true virtue.
You might think of cynicism as a downer, but there’s more to it than just a bad attitude. From ancient Greece to modern-day critics, Cynicism challenges us to strip away superficiality and seek what truly matters.
**Let’s get into it!**
# The Philosophy of Cynicism: A Radical Path to Virtue.
Cynicism, in its ancient form, presents a philosophy that’s both radical and refreshingly simple, but often misunderstood.
Most people today equate being a "cynic" with bitterness, distrust, and a skeptical worldview. But when you peel back the layers of modern cynicism and look at its ancient roots, the philosophy reveals something far deeper a call to reject society’s distractions and focus on living an authentic, virtuous life.
It’s not about seeing the worst in people; it’s about seeing through the illusions that society tries to sell us.
As I delved into the original Cynic philosophy traced back to figures like Antisthenes and his student, D

Title: No Mow Month
Text:Hi witches, wizards and everyone in-between!
I've been taking a lot of strolls in my neighborhood recently to soak up some light after the long winter (and spring) and I've noticed that a lot of the gardens I saw looked pretty much identical: short, "perfectly manicured" lawns with absolute no weeds tainting the picture.
And while I'm always happy to see more green areas in cities, I think it's important to keep in mind that just because it's green doesn't mean it's good for the environment!
A lawn that offers virtually no shade in the sun, no places to rest and hide and no flowers is pretty much identical to a desert as far as pollinators are concerned. Many species of wild bees are highly specialized on feeding only off of maybe one or two kinds of wildflowers and if we don't make space for those flowers to grow besides the ones we purposely plant (like our dear roses) these kind of wild bees might starve.
So, in light of the already dire situation of our climate I thought maybe we could start a little movement: Guys have No Nut November where they proudly post pictures of their beards so maybe we could do something like that but with our lawns? Letting nature into our gar

Title: Tim Walz is now facing formal accusations of premeditated s*xual assault after taking a 14-year-old boy to a local concert.
Text:Tim Walz, Kamala Harris' running mate, has landed in hot water as shocking allegations emerged on social media. In what is now being labeled as the "big October surprise" for the Harris campaign, a user, going by [**@DocNetyoutube**](https://x.com/docnetyoutube?s=21&t=lyUkewqrOx_z4p8M2W3EIQ), accused Walz of having an 'inappropriate' relationship with a male student during his time as a professor and football coach. The claims also mention Walz visiting a gay bar with the student, which allegedly led to a school board investigation.
The former student accusing Tim Walz of grooming and molesting him has agreed to go public.

We were called up to the counter and we found out that while my sister would be able to get vaccinated at no cost, I would have to pay $42 for my flu vaccine ($100 before they found a discount) and $220 for my COVID booster. I’m not in a financial position at the moment to drop that amount of money — I’m already dealing with some other medical problems.
I’m just so frustrated with how things are and would love to hear from others if they’ve had a similar experiences or any general advice. I knew they would start charging for booster, but I didn’t realize it would be that much. Maybe I’m just ignorant in regard to vaccine and medical costs, but it felt a bit ridiculous. There shouldn’t be a financial barrier to healthcare, and every time I’m reminded about it, it angers me to my core.
ETA: I’m located in the DFW area (TX). I’ve found a vaccine drive in a nearby county, which I’m hoping will at least be low-cost for myself and my parents (none of us are insured). I also am planning on reaching ou

Title: So needless to say, Ashton is definitely one of them.
Text:Most people from this sub already know that 99.9% if not 100% of celebrities are disgusting and evil.
Why do most people who you'd consider "normie" totally over look their favorite celebs? Ashton Kutcher, Keanu Reeves, etc. What makes these ACTORS any different than the rest of them. Anyone can say, or act a type of way in the public eye, so if you have a celeb that you think is "different" why is that?

Title: If you understand Kierkegaard then why haven’t you divorced your spouse yet?
Text:Gather round, intellectual subordinates, and let me weave a masterpiece of a philosophical position.
Look, I get it, getting that divorce is scary. What about the kids? Who will get custody of the hamster? How am I gonna pay my lawyer?
These are the questions you should be asking… assuming you ***actually understand Kierkegaard.***
You can even be ethical about this! If you need an excuse for the divorce just lie and say you have a mistress in Germany or something. This is *clearly* what Søren would have wanted.
But yeah, you probably just think Kierkegaard is an excellent case study in ‘negative theology’ or something boring like that. Forget about that nonsense and **divorce your spouse immediately.**
Your affectionate uncle, Screwtape

Title: Am I still allowed here?
Text:Hello witches! I have been part of this sub for a hot minute and I love seeing everyone's art and joy and witchcraft. As a baby witch it makes me so happy! The only thing is I recently came out as a trans man. I know this is a space for women to feel safe and I would hate to intrude on a space I shouldn't be in. I would love some council from my fellow witches, if I should be here or if there's a sub like this for men, that would be cool too!
Edit: thank you everyone for the outpouring of love and open arms. I was aware that the description included LGBTQ+ but I just wanted to be sure and not make anyone uncomfortable

Title: We need an IRC chat room

I don't know how many others would join since IRC clients are a bit more basic (I use HexChat) but personally I think it would be a good idea or at least as a backup now that the old discord is banned.

Title: My parents always bring up the fact I self harm everytime I say something hurts.

Title: I've been openly wearing a Childless Cat Lady t-shirt over the last few weeks, and the experience has been more interesting than anticipated
Text:**Editor's Note** - This was originally written for and posted on [a different subreddit]. I wasn't sure if anybody would even be interested in reading these experiences, but I was immediately proven to be *sorely* mistaken. Along the way, several people declared that not only does somebody like myself 'belong' in /r/WitchesVsPatriarchy (they do be right tho), I should also absolutely share these observations with the cauldron-laden, spell-throwing denizens of this lovely forest.
...Who am I to disobey the demands of the Coven??

Foreword: I'm barely sure why I feel compelled to share all this, and it might just be completely ridiculous or unremarkable for all I know, but it feels like it might be valuable enough to bother to try. Plus, as it turns out... "Extra strength" coffee *is*; so let's do it.
Introspection is often 'inadvertently extensive' and I have a lot of steam to let off here, so I'll try to start with the important part.

What is the ontology of these ancient vampires? Does consequentialism enable or deny vampiric rule? Does the existence of an immortal blood drinker refute the hard problem of consciousness?

Title: Guess the number of N95 masks I saw at the chemotherapy infusion center today?
Text:If you guessed zero, you’re absolutely right! Not a single soul other than myself and my father had an N95 on. Most of the patients and staff were completely unmasked. I asked all the nurses who interacted with my father to put on a mask, and most of them pushed back and asked just why they had to do such a thing.
It boggles the mind. There was even a handout they gave us about the effects of chemotherapy and one of the things it mentioned was that it suppresses the immune system. Patients were instructed to wash their hands and never eat unwashed produce. Guess what mitigation wasn’t on the list?

Title: “Am I the stereotype?” posts.
Text:Please remove if not allowed, I’d just like to share how I feel.
My feed is getting flooded with these “Am I the self-harm stereotype?” posts and it’s making me very irate. There is no rational stereotype for self-harm. It’s a serious topic and an addictive, unhealthy coping mechanism. Anyone can self-harm. Yes, there’s the “Oh, look, it’s a grunge, nonbinary person with colored hair and long sleeves in the middle of summer. They must cut themselves.” comments from old, religious men, but I think it’s insensitive to group one aesthetic or one person’s style of hair or clothing into a harmful assumption.

Title: Creepy realization
Text:I'm not sure if others have been talking about this, but I would love to hear other opinions.
Shortly after the pandemic started, someone in a community group I'm in pointed out that Amazon reviews for scented candles were acting as a pretty solid proxy for infection rate, with negative ("These don't smell like anything!") reviews eventually correlating well to wastewater data.
Recently, I've been bemoaning how all of these shrinkflation adjustments have resulted in lower quality goods. Some of them are just bizarre, though. A friend gifted me a package of theme Oreos, and the caramel scent/flavor was overwhelmingly cloying. I couldn't even put one in my mouth. No one in my household could stand the smell. I tossed the whole bag, and could still smell it in that room after I took out the trash.
I ordered some Lush shower stuff and a few of the crossover products smelled overwhelmingly, eye wateringly of 80s fake grape flavor. I could smell them before I opened the box, through the packaging. We had to dispose of them outside of the house within 24 hours. They were making the entire house reek, totally nauseating. I didn't find any reviews to that effect when I skimmed the webs

Title: a nice surprise re: masking
Text:called up an HVAC place this morning for some needed work. the person on the phone asked if i'd like the technician they send to wear a mask. couldn't believe it! of course i said yes and thanked them profusely. i'm not sure if this is common practice in this line of work (or if the technician will adhere to the request), but either way i'm so grateful they asked. the work is for my elderly mother so for now i'm taking the win haha.

Title: I'm not usually this person..
Text:...And to be honest I'm quite self conscious and shy a lot of the time, but I just had the most mind-blowing experience and felt it just had to be shared.
**Content warning! Masturbation**
I have only been using meth for about a month now, and not much of it for many days at a time. Moderation, you know.
Anyway I had a pretty awful day yesterday, and decided to buy a new bag that night. Have indulged happily for the last 17 hours straight as a change, but only just discovered for myself why so many people rave about sexual pleasure on this drug. Ho - ly - shit.
I have never felt anything like it.
I am usually a 20 second smash one out kind of person, get it done and get over it.
But without realizing, I edged myself for over 20 minutes. Then, when the orgasm came it came fast, hard, and without any warning. It lasted SO long. I was shaking so hard, my extremities were starting to tingle, I was breathing and moaning so hard I'll eat my hat if a neighbor didn't hear me.. it just wouldn't end! Wave after wave of pleasure, almost overwhelming, I could hardly keep my sucking vibe pressed against me with the tremors and the bucking of my hips. I swear that orgasm lasted at least

Title: Drank my own piss for the first time today
Text:I filled up one of those Starbucks tumblers that come with the straw, 24 ounces to the brim. I stay so fucking hydrated that it was mostly odorless and a light chardonnay color and straight up tasted just like warm water, a slight urine aftertaste with a chemical edge. It took me about 10 min to finish, and I was listening to the prelude from Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde the whole time. I’m not pretentious, I just need to become familiar with it for this other thing. It was fitting. I did a breath check into my palm after I finished it, and despite the lack of smell and taste, it smelled like piss and it was trippy to smell that coming from my mouth. I thought I was going to get a tummy ache but that passed, and then I immediately had to piss again. I did into the same cup, and it filled up about 3/4 of it this time. I didn’t drink it though. For some reason the first effects hit my hands: my fingers turned rosey and tight. I don’t do hot rails anymore but what I felt next is what I remember that feeling like; an uncomfortably concentrated head high and feeling the guilt of all my life’s transgressions at once, wanting to cry but unable to. It wore off after maybe 45ish minutes and

Title: Am I in the wrong?
Text:
My sister gave up masking and caring about Covid in 2022. Every two months, like clockwork, she gets sick. She refuses to test for Covid and now she is sick again.
I have gotten Covid one time, February of 2024. I have asthma, so even with Paxlovid, I was very sick, coughing for around six weeks, and using my inhaler and humidifier. I still take precautions and mask while outside of the house, but unfortunately, it’s hard when I live with my sister who doesn’t care.
Every time she gets sick, she screams at me when I ask her to mask. She wears a flimsy surgical mask and refuses to test, then says she’s not “going around and licking doorknobs.” Then she calls me selfish when I say I would like to not have to be sick for weeks or months because of Covid.
She tells me I’m “controlling her,” when I’ve told her repeatedly that she can do whatever she wants when she leaves the house, but she needs to be prepared to deal with the consequences (i.e., getting sick every couple months).
I’m at a loss and don’t know what to do. It’s the same rigamarole every couple months and it’s exhausting. I don’t want to move out because my boyfriend and I are saving for a house and we have dirt ch
