I dunno... Just having worked with feds long enough I am inclined to say there's something weird to the Havana syndrome stuff, if for no other reason than the portion of the workforce I've worked with I know to be among the highest functioning alcoholics in the field.

I'd trust them to know the difference between a hangover and something not self-inflicted to the point where it would not escalate to this level otherwise

I'm pretty skeptical about it still. I mean, maybe they're under psychic attack or something (hopefully). But there are also a lot of financial incentives in acting like you have some strange new illness that needs a lot of research and healthcare money to treat.

That's fair and I completely understand the assessment it's just hard for me to imagine given that the career feds I know are the true believer sorts. The sort of people who talk about "the mission" and "honest day's work" and nonsense like that.

Like I don't think it's Russian psychic warfare but I would 100% believe the embassy is too close to a power substation or something stupid like that

I often psychically assault government employees and elected officials. Particularly the ones that denied me my full unemployment benefit having paid vacation time left over was “double dipping”

I’m dropping psychic safes on these mfers in the astral realm.

anyway, I made some spooky ufo music with my computer that’s perfect for getting blasted and playing final fantasy x(it gets real wild 30 mins in):

goon psionicists i had a weird dream that needs analyzed

in this dream i was in some kind of superposition of different life stages or something because it started off
  • the pope arbitrarily came to town to give mass with a bunch of priestlings which was obviously a big deal and rarely happens, but it was some real dune poo poo like as if guild navigators or the emperor decided to just show up one day.
  • my new and super hot gf (:jerkbag:) somehow didn't know you're not supposed to bang extramaritally and then go get communion without confession but gently caress the rules i don't particularly think jesus would care overmuch.
  • i was being trained as an actual exorcist or theologian of some kind, but instead of being poo poo was actually an important job for some mysterious reason.
  • they were legalizing weed in basically every state, many such cases. Some, i assume, were good reasons. "Weed lifestyle" stuff was cropping up as various kinds of popular products?
  • you could buy these packets of powdered "dirty bong water" which was a brand, and didn't taste like revolting actual bong water but was this weird bigass packet of like off-green powder that smelled amazingly good. My sister i think had one that was cayenne and you mixed it with hot water or put it in soup. It was eighty loving dollars. It did not in any way get you high.
  • The whole thing was this weird melding and interswitching of life eras and various people and places i knew and sort of still know. really hard to describe this part. kind of concerning

It says to me how deeply the catholic church is involved in the alien question. (The Vatican has known about the others for centuries, they just consider them demons.) And part of that involvement is social control, through rituals like communion, as well as through backing secular dream (energy) control methods like lovely, mass-produced weed.

you need to get high, fight evil*, and doing this will make the past not hurt so much (but still the same) and the future a thing to enjoy is the line i trace thru that. good luck!

Dear dream journal:

I had a weird dream last night.

I kind of had a little bit of a weird moment listening to a hemisync part earlier in the day, it didn't work as usual but it did put me into a very relaxed state and after like 45 minutes of just silence I had a moment where my body felt numb and my vision, which is usually just black with static, went extra intense static and the blackness became a grey 3 dimensional sort of room, i felt myself being kind of pulled into it but it stopped as i made myself aware of it. It was in that in-between waking/sleeping state, it felt very much like one of near-oobe experience i've had earlier but without seeing myself float upwards this time.

That wasn't the dream I just wanted to note that it happened before the dream.

It was kind of a videogame-y thing where I was part of a larger party venturing into a pyramid, pretty sure it was said to be some Egyptian sounding named pyramid but I can't remember the name, the party was made up of a number of characters some of them people i've known but don't anymore and others not, a couple of dogs were with us. One of the guys thats "real" had a sort of power armor on, as did one of the dogs. As we got to the end we encountered a sort of lift system to go to the very top of it but the guy with power armor had some kind of malfunction and couldnt come up with the rest of us. Nothing really happened at the top for us, but it was noted that it was weird that we were somehow not in the pyramid anymore and the party was scattered, like there was some sort of piece of missing time we were aware of but couldnt remember. we were unable to locate most of the party members. We did find the guy in the power armor and talking to him he was very nervous about the whole thing. Bunch of details I could write but it'd make it longer that it'd have to be.. In the end it turned out he'd gone up after us without the armor on and told us not to go back. He looked at me intently and went over to a closet door that was sort of a sliding mirror thing and asked me "would you rather it be closed off like this, or for it to be fully opened, like this" and he opened it, and as he and i got reflected in the mirror I could see a sort of creature, looked like a mix of a java from star wars and one of the aliens from communion, perched on his shoulder. The implication was that whatever we were spared of not remembering, he got the full deal of and it wasn't good.

I'm blue eyed, center heterochromia, left handed too, can move my left ear (but not the right though) and pop my ears at will.

The GATE people never found me though since I don't live in the US. Never saw a bird neither. Only dabbling in magic and cartomancy.

I thought this was something everyone can do. But I'm blue eyed with gold irises. Didn't know what a gate kid was. Looked it up and yeah I was in those classes. Not left handed though.
