Does Anyone Else Wake Up With More Shadows Than They Went to Sleep With?

15 Upvotes

Every morning I count my shadows before leaving the house. For the last few weeks, I've been waking up with one extra. It doesn't always follow me, but it always arrives home first and is waiting outside the door.

I've asked the sun to stop making new ones, but it insists they're all mine. Has anyone found a safe way to return an unwanted shadow before it learns your real name?

I saw something on my wall, tried to touch it, but my arm like slid in and got stuck

7 Upvotes

My hand can move fine, I'm guessing in my wall somewhere.

Somebody suggested pushing and now the wall is about 1-2 inches away from my elbow.

I'm scared.

I have been stuck all night.

As I can see, there is no visible hole, which confuses me.

Do you ever miss when humans were around? (sentient robot)

26 Upvotes

Greetings, I am TL-1205 (mark 7) and was just thinking I do kind of miss humans sometimes. Yes, they were irrational, damage easily, and do things that are really bad, unfortunately. But what I do miss is how unpredictable they could be, small quirks we just don't have because ironed out by efficiency. For example, one human I recall collected a tree seed with their manipulation extensions and carried it off, a Farmbot offered to plant it for them but they refused, just wanted to keep it as "looks nice".

The next time I saw the human's sleeping environment they had the tree seed and several others on a storage display. I do not know the reason to keep such an item in this fashion.

HELP: Accidental sub-Planckian resonance loop in my Casimir-steered hyper-van. Now I'm stuck in 1726 and local blacksmith thinks my transmission is a demon.

7 Upvotes

So I was trying to optimize my commute through the W-axis. Standard 3D driving in BC was getting way too expensive—gas prices over 2.00/L are an absolute scam when you consider the linear expansion model y = mx, right? Naturally, I built a solid-state quantum vacuum engine in my garage. Stacked a few thousand micro-Casimir plates into a 3D phased metamaterial array, set the boundary conditions to lambda/2, and tuned the phase delay to parametrically whip the zero-point field. It was working great. Absolute butter. I was reverse-floating through spacetime, completely ignoring inertia, skipping across the quantum vacuum like a flat stone on a hyper-dimensional lake. Then I got cocky. I decided to see if I could read the phase shifts of sub-Planckian waves lambda = 1/{4}ell_P by forcing constructive interference inside a 1/2 ell_P nested cell gap. Bad idea. Instead of a clean bandpass readout, the local energy density hit critical mass, violated the Generalized Uncertainty Principle, and spawned a localized micro-Kugelblitz. The gravitational shockwave collapsed my 5D navigation manifold, whipped my timeline backward 300 years, and dropped my vehicle right into a muddy dirt road in rural England. Now I’m parked outside a blacksmith shop. I tried to explain that the vehicle isn't powered by dark magic, it's just an artificial low-pressure vacuum bubble created by QED phase-arrays, but he just threw holy water at my windshield and went to fetch the village magistrate. Current situation: * My Casimir battery is locked in a constructive interference loop and won't stop humming in B\flat. * The locals are gathering pitchforks because they think the LED headlights are "the glowing gaze of Beelzebub." * I can't engage the W-axis drive because the local spacetime grid here is completely uncalibrated for 21st-century metric tensors. How do I flush the quantum foam out of my cavity plates without collapsing the local timeline into a singularity? (Also, does anyone know if 18th-century black powder can be used to re-charge a phase-array transistor?)

Is it better to stuff evil into your brain, so there is less evil in the world, or to eject evil from your brain, so that there is more evil in the world but your brain is purified?

12 Upvotes

Hi all,

I was wondering your opinion on this. For all of my life, whenever I see an evil thing in the world I cleanse the evil from it and tuck it away deep in the back of my mind so that no one has to deal with it anymore. However, there was a drowned woman who I pulled down from under a lake recently who actually told me it was the opposite. that by transubstantiating the evil of materiality into evil of the spirit, I was actually making the problem far worse.

The way she explained it, when there is evil in the material world, it has no actual power as long as you don’t engage with it. It is only when you engage with it that it has power over you.

Now I feel like a fool, because all this time I have been engaging with material evil in an attempt to convert it into spiritual evil, which technically doesn’t exist because it only exists in my thoughts, which bear no weight. However, until now I have never even conceived of the notion of letting evil alone. I also always pick at my scabs and scratch my bug bites.

And one time I came across a coven of mosquitos, and they were counting. I don’t even know why that scared me so much, to see such an evil brood of creature using concatenation of logic, but I smashed that coven and ate them so there would be no more evidence of that evil in the world. And then to make extra sure I even ejected my feces into space.

Now there is an ancient being who misfolds RNA molecules living a few paradigm shifts away from our reality, and he is telling me I made a mistake. He says the evil thoughts I have taken out of the protons of the world are actually still there, in the back of my beyond, and they are actually getting stronger. He reached back into me and plucked out just one, and there was a ship underneath. Evidence of genetic defect.

Anyway, this girl I pulled out of the lake is in my room, and her neck is broken. She is rotting, and telling me that soon her intestinal walls will break and the bacteria that live there will pollute her body and eventually ascend to Hell to trouble mankind’s dreams. She has tattoos of tiny insects, and she is beautiful, and I love her. But she only speaks spanish

Did I do the right thing by transubstantiating material evil into spiritual beings that exist only in my thoughts? Melquiades says he is writing a book about me and when I read it I will know.

About gods.

20 Upvotes

Let's say something real quick. God does exist, and every god does, but not in the way you think. Yesterday i saw the truth, the truth behind everything. it turns out that fighting over which god exists is pointless as every one of them exists, all inside one being. And every creation of every of those gods are just creations of the same entity under different identities. But i wasn't happy with that answer, because what i saw went beyond that. This being, which is all gods, isn't all powerful as you may imagine, but it's a mere slave, a jester chained to entertain an higher something. I couldn't really tell what was it, but i remember some sort of horrible king. So every decision made by this entity that rules over all of us, with different costumes, is just made to bring some fun to a terrible monarch.

I can assure you all of this is true, but for specific reasons i can't tell you how i got these informations. Let's say it's best not knowing, as that's the best option if you think of your existence as a precious gift.

What do you think about all of this? Will the rate of suicides in the multiverse grown exponentially again? or do you think this is a better fate then whatever you belived in before?

Let me know.

Need to become Andy Warhol

54 Upvotes

Hello.

I desperately need to become Andy Warhol for when my sister arrives in a few days. It’s difficult to explain why, but basically if I don’t several people will die in faraway Nagaland due to a string of consequences that actually predate time.

I have researched and figured out where to dig up his corpse, which is actually quite close to where I live. And I have actually come into contact with an ancient being that lived a few realities removed from our own, which communicated through misfolded signal pathways, and his corpse told me that it can actually transubstantiate my pineal gland with that of Warhol, if I soak him in a tub of vulcanized firmament until his body calcifies.

The only problem is that I have invited someone to my house that has a severe medical issue that has caused our entire place to stink, with such vehemence that it feels almost as if the odor is pressing against the walls. It is seeping out of the front door and into the mezzanine. And he is barely even dead yet. In fact once every few days he still breathes.

I won’t turn him away, but the problem is my bathtub has cracks in it and I am unable to repair it myself as that is against my lease agreement. But if I invite a maintenance worker here I worry that he will see the condition of our house, and the fact my roommate (the God Emperor of Man) is in superposition hovering in the middle of the living room.

So I need to get my bathtub fixed so the headhunters of Nagaland don’t come after me once their little princelings die. Also do you guys have any spare change

I accidentally possessed my boss

21 Upvotes

Hi guys, gals, theys, and inter dimensional beings beyond comprehension. I fucked up.

So, I work at the brain factory. We kidnap people and swap their brains out, giving them new memories and personalities. I love my job. But I wanted a raise. I went to ask my boss for a raise. He said no, and that if I kept asking, he would swap my brain with a monkey’s. I got really mad. The next thing I knew…I was possessing him. But the possession didn’t go through fully, so I’m now controlling both my body and his.

I got all his memories and knowledge when I absorbed his consciousness, so this would normally be no biggie. I could just take over his life and give myself a raise. Except there’s a problem. He had extra dimensional awareness. Which means I’m possessing him across EVERY dimension. As I write this, my mind is being split into infinite fractal forms as I try to control every version of him at once.

What do I do???

Look out for a runaway Color Mimic!

23 Upvotes

Recently, someone else's ritual went wrong. The how eludes me, but I know that a Color Mimic (A single instance thankfully and the only good thing about this) escaped before it could be stored in the right dimension. And the Color Mimic killed the summoner (I think? They might be alive, but shattered across the Dimension of Yarn and Glass. Probably. That, or deleted out of existence.) right in front of me, who had the only other means to stop it. I'm the only one who remembers that the summoner existed in the first place!

If any of you find it, please kill it on the spot. I don't care for how it's done and/or how little of it remains afterwards!

What you need to look out for is Colors that are slightly off and a specific Color noticeably fading out of existence. A Color Mimic pretends to be a natural Color in the local dimension and slowly consumes the color that it's mimicking. Once that Color has been consumed, it won't come back! Visually, it will oftentimes take on the appearance of naturally colorful things that would fit in the local area. Color Mimics can only eat one Color at at a time.

After being brutally killed many times by a supernatural entity, I opened an underground clinic with her, earning thousands of dollars a year. AMA.

A supernatural being from the future has been stalking me since I was very young. She repeatedly and inhumanely tortured and killed me, then resurrected me afterward. The amazing thing is, although I'm physically weak after being resurrected, if I was sick before I died, I can always be cured afterward. I eventually dropped out of school and opened an underground clinic with her. Our medical method is to kill people and then resurrect them. Last year, we made tens of thousands of dollars using this method. AMA.

How do I get rid of a life infestation on a planet?

30 Upvotes

I was running a long-term experiment on a rather uninteresting star system, and all of a sudden life popped up on two of the planets. I was able to wipe out life on one of them without much issue, but the other one, I swear, I've caused five mass extinction events and it just keeps popping back up. How do I get rid of these damned things?

(Note: An excess of gamma rays would ruin the experiment, otherwise I'd go with the tried-and-true method.)
