Please summarize so I don't waste 13 minutes of my life. Don't you have original thoughts regarding the subject? Has your life been reduced to copying hyperlinks? Give me even a hint of why I should waste any of my life on something you have recommended if you can't take the time to explain why you have recommended it.

Scratch and sniff should be a thing.
I'd like to talk about Serial Experiments Lain on /x/ as it is the most /x/ anime of all time.
There's the concept of The Wired, which is basically our internet. My memory is a little hazy and i'm going to rewatch it but essentially consciousness lives on in the wired.
Essentially, your soul becomes a sentient being of this electronic realm. I was thinking of how this could exist in reality. In the future I believe an neural networked A.I. that learns and adapts new concepts from the internet could be created.
Also, what if a company sets up a way to talk to your deceased friend/significant other/family member? If social media stays around, then they could take an A.I algorithm and feed the decades worth of data on say, facebook and created an A.I. chatbot that has a similar personality.
But what really interested me is Protocol 7. The protocol that fully links the Wired and Real World together. Devised by Eiri Masami while he was a Tachibana Lab employee. Against the wishes of Tachibana Lab, Eiri Masami designed Protocol 7 to utilize Schumann Resonance to connect everybody to the Wired (and therefore each other) without devices. This could very well happen in the future I believe. Basically, it would be a personal assistant such as Siri we are all connected to. John C. Lilly believed in such a thing and thought it contacted him from the future. He coined it "Solid State Intelligence". Basically it is a linked A.I.
Serial Expirements Lain has a lot of influence from those techno-hippie people like Lilly. I'll copypaste some more info from this site https://www.cjas.org/~leng/lain.htm#p7
Interpretation:
As the series progresses, Protocol 7 seems to become more and more pervasive in the world of serial experiments lain as evidenced by the progressive "blurring" of Real World and the Wired, which appears to be correlated with Lain's increasing power and awareness.
Protocol 7 makes the collective unconscious (as described by Jung) become the collective consciousness. As such, it may also be in reference to the Leary/Wilson 7th Circuit of the nervous-system/consciousness, aka the Collective Neurogenetic Circuit. On that note, it is interesting that Tachibana Lab also "succeeded in analyzing the molecular structure of the genome of human"--(quoted from Shindo's translated script, layer:11 "INFORNOGRAPHY"). That Tachibana Lab was able to do this may have provided the means for Eiri Masami to create Protocol 7. Leary and Wilson describe Circuit 7 as the DNA memory/genetic archives whose total collective information (beyond the individual, gene-pool, and species levels) is the consciousness of Gaia, the living global brain. So the evolution of the 7th circuit is the evolution of Gaia. Those who develop 7th circuit consciousness gain awareness of the DNA memory/genetic archive and of Gaia.
The biosphere--Gaia--the DNA script--is more intelligent than all individuals, gene-pools and species. It has survived everything thrown at it for nearly 4 billion years, and is getting smarter all the time. It is on the edge of achieving immortality.--from Prometheus Rising by Robert Anton Wilson.
Just keep posting, I'll give you my opinion later, I have some reading to do.

What's up /x/ right now I'm stoned as fuck and I can't remain still without my body starting to feel as if it's going into paralysis.
That being said tonight I am going to be falling asleep here soon to sleep it off.
I will defenitely experience sleep paralysis tonight.
Any tips on how to get out of it or turn it into a dream? Also I'll post my experience when I wake from it.
I can no longer feel my legs, I'll do my best to turn it into a Lucid Dream or OBE. I just hope I don't see demonic figures. Wish me luck /x/
good luck :D
I'll dream too... maybe I'll see u there
Do you all experience it often? I've never dealt with it before in my life and then it happened to me 6 times in the past week and it's freaking me out. Anyway good luck man, don't get stuck
I think my neighbor is a vampire.
He's kind of an asshole and I'm pretty sure he's cheating on his wife.
What should I do /x/?
cant tell if troll or stupid
>>17744380
WHY???!
Why do you think he is a vampire? What SPECIFIC behavior that your neighbor exhibits leads you to believe this? Being an Asshole and an Adulterer is common suburban behavior. WTF?!?! Have you seen the dude freaking out over garlic at the grocery store. How long had you suspected this. Dude!!! ANY information would have at least given you SPME credibility.
And why the female vampire picture? Is this a lesbian vampire couple we're talking about? DETAILS!!!!

Does /x/ know anything about the Stanley R. Mickelsen Safeguard Complex?
Five years after the initial groundbreaking, the complex came to life. The facility operated for a little under 24 hours before Congress pulled the funding and ended the program.
Total cost to the taxpayer? Just under $6 billion. A 1974 report from the comptroller general details much of the cost, including $112 million in excess materials, $481 million dollars in “lost effort” and $697 million in “schedule changes.”
I was looking into this and some odd info popped up. On December 13 2012 the Spring Creek Hutterite Colony of Forbes purchased the complex for $530,000 USD.
Where did a self-sustaining colony of Hutterites come up with over a half-million dollars? I dug up some info on the Hutterites of North Dakota and found this.
1) An average of 90 people live in a colony.
2) Colonies are legal corporations that pay local property taxes like other landowners.
3) Individual Hutterites do not pay income tax because they receive no pay.
4) Colonies pay income tax that's figured by dividing a colony's taxable income by the number of adults living on that colony.
5) The latest colonies formed in North Dakota were in the 80's.
6) There seems to be alot of pushback from the Hutterite community itself on establishing new colonies due to lack of funding.
“We have paid income tax, but nowadays it seems like we don't make enough money,” Newport Colony minister/leader Sam J. Waldner said.

They also seemed to have won the bid by default.
"Starting on December 13, 2012 at 11:00am CST, the Bid Interval will be reduced from 24 hours to 2 hours."
"CORRECTION: Please be advised that the Bid History shows the first six bids made on this sale incorrectly. Those bids have been cancelled because they did not comply with the terms of the Invitation for Bids due to an error in the initial posting of this sale."
Why buy the complex in first place? It's officially claimed as farmland, but...
1) Forbes (Colony) is in Dickey County, bordering South Dakota. Nekoma (Complex) is in Cavalier county, bordering Canada 220 miles away. A 3h30min drive according to Google maps.
2) Again, we know there is pushback on establishing new colonies.
3) They appearently haven't done anything with the place since 2012 when it was purchased.
>>17743018
I fucking love the paramid is my favorite ultrasonic motion sensor.
You'll never catch a ghost without one of this.
And hutterites shouldn't have that much money.
That is weird.
>>17743063
>paramid
Yeah, noticed that after I posted. I'd love to say I was being clever and called it a "para"mid due to it being a former military installation... sadly I'm just retarded.
Anyone else guided by 11? Or any other form of synchronicity? If so, what have you pieced together?

what about it?
Sorry to disappoint, but I really have no info or insight to offer. It happens to me a lot, especially when I'm high, but also sometimes when I'm sober. It's almost never 11:11, it's usually 12:34, 15:15, 20:02, 10:11, stuff like that. I used to work as a cashier, every other customer's total would be like 45,46 haha. But I have no idea what it means.

do you really think that our lenses can record spirits? the most logical explanation is that its some lens flare or insect reflecting the light.
>>17742596
Cameras record everything. We can't see spirits because they're waves move faster than we can comprehend them. Cameras have a lower fps so we are able to see them.

Is there any significance to the quad 1s?
>>17741121
I wouldn't buy too much into the significance of some repeating numbers, but if you really care enough, you can look it up on google or something and you'll probably find that various people would interpret 1111's in various ways, either like a message or something.
In my eyes? It's just some nice quads to get and look at.
Hi! Would very much like a general reading!! In a bit of a life bind.
TL;DR - Time to cut the 'if science thinks you're nuts, you're nuts' shit. Pretty sure I'm an empath. How do I make it stronger?
More interesting bits in second post, I guess.
Text Wall: So I've always been able to tell with 99% of people, when I say something wrong in a conversation. I say it, there's sometimes awkward silence, regardless of if there is or not, I feel a tinge of.. something in the air. negativity, for lack of better understanding.
When I was a kid it was always if I swore, once when I said a movie 'sucked' and apparently that was a bad word to that group. I laughed and more negativity flew.
That was awkward.
There were other times when I was little, like talking to my parents, but the swearing is the most memorable.
I got depressed when I had to repeat a grade since all my friends moved on to college and such without me. Those of us still around still hung out but eventually that stopped too.
I was 19 and a virgin, I know there's been much worse there, but I was depressed. Had two failed 'relationships', one where the girl wanted to form too deep a connection too quick, (eg, wanted to jump my bones in the first week I guess?) and wouldn't really cuddle. Second was cuddly until she found out the rumors were true and I look at porn, shocker. So she left me for her childhood friend who then proceeded to sign up for the military, deploy, and cheat on her with men.
It's ok, she wasn't the brightest anyway.
Last year of school, no perceived friends.
Met someone on the bus. First 'date' was to come over to her crazy-animal-lady mom's house and help clean one of their snake cages.
I couldn't, and can't feel her emotions well. I'll be knee-deep in the dog house before I realize I've said anything wrong. Er, anyway - She confessed to liking me, I did the same. We kissed, and cuddled like just, uh, her sitting between my legs and she was leaning on me.
The confession released a wave of emotion, but the cuddling was unlike anything I'd ever felt. I didn't want to move. It was like I was high on something. For a good half hour we just sat there, because neither of us wanted to move. I didn't know I had that much happiness/pleasure in my head.
Fast forward about eight years, and at my new shitty job someone just started working who I can feel. Like, I feel when she's around if she's in good spirits, if she's down I don't feel her presence, probably because at our shitty job everyone's usually in a bad mood, so I cant detect more negativity in the sea of negativity.
she's got self-image/esteem/confidence issues like most girls now, she's 9 years younger than me - a minor, and as far as I can tell, is easily depressed.
She's played with my hair, she likes to touch me, drawn a smiley on me with one of those counterfeit pens, fixed my collar, fixed my necklace... and recently told me she does that sort of thing to everyone, but I'm the only one I've seen her really interact with besides talking.
I'm not sure what the range is on this connection or where she lives, but I used to be able to tell when she walked into work, now I just feel the positivity feeling from her most of the time.
Anyway that's enough about her, I won't get with her anymore than as a friend since I'm engaged and she's still a minor and all that. She did ask my birthday so maybe I can get her number and we can hang out outside of work, or talk more.
The managers noticed her playing with my hair and such and I think they're scheduling us mostly different shifts because of it.
Which brings me to another point, I can apparently feel when someone's behind a giant thick metal door and is listening to my conversation, as one of the managers did that.
But that about, oh, no, wait, I can also feel when someone I'm familiar with is going to die soon, or as they're dying. Problem is I don't know who it is until it's too late, usually.
That's all. I'd like to know if anyone has experience with this. if anything they took increased its effectiveness, how to tell more besides just negativity and positivity apart. that sort of thing.
Most of this can be explained by alterEd memory perception. Sometimes your brain stores a short term memory as a long term memory, and this is how some de ja vu happens. Your brain is dun goofing and making you falsely remember feeling something when you receibe confirmation input of someone entering a building or dieing. However as far as being a self proclaimed empath myself. There are some similarities I can see between us.
