I don’t even know anymore

I had a dream that the alt-right manosphere people stopped liking Andrew Tate, but the guy they replaced him with was Mr. Bean? Like Rowan Atkinson was suddenly the model of masculinity that all these dudes were idolizing and I'm not sure if he was even aware of it.

"Beanposting" was like, the new meme and people spent a lot of time using AI programs to make images of jacked chad Mr. Bean.

I don't know exactly how, but this was related to something called "The Darkness." Like, if you beanposted too much, it would trigger The Darkness, but The Darkness could also happen randomly.

The Darkness was like, this thing that would happen as you were trying to sleep. This black fog would completely envelop you, to the point where you weren't able to see anything. Once that happened, you'd have the distinct feeling that you had been transported somewhere else, or like, another place had been transported around you.

At that point, you HAD to keep your eyes closed. If you didn't, you'd see a blue-green Greek letter delta appear in the air. It would give off just enough light to barely give the impression that there was someone holding the delta, like it was hovering above their hand.

I woke up before I could learn what happened if you saw the delta.

so I think maybe I lost the forest for the trees here, but I'm high and this is a 250mg (d8) situation here

anyways this is what I imagine those images would look like

Your reaction to chatGPT instantly lets me know how easy it would be to trick you into thinking that you are haunted

"omg it's literally alive!" Two beers, 45 minutes, deck of tarot cards, and I'm charging you 350$ for an exorcism.

"I read an article that it's showing simple self-awareness" two days, mild preparation, hot and cold reading, I can get 60$ for joints laced with sacred sage

"I just spoke to an AI and I'm... rattled to say the least, come with me on this dark journey" twenty minutes. I've got to science it up for you, but I can get you to come back every week to "disentangle the psychological imprint" for 125$

If the "tricking" involved like deceit, manipulation and surreptitious drugging (as opposed to cleverly arguing for it) it doesn't feel like the belief in AI awareness is all that relevant

Hot read, 20 minutes.

So got some time to finally take a crack at doing a reading with @publishinggoblin Oracle Dice.

Drew up the reading in the reading journal and then cracked open the guide and proceeded to have all of the raw nerves (some I didn’t even know I had!) touched with just the core and body/summer quadrant and had to put it down for the day. Currently working on interpreting material/autumn and anticipating even more emotional damage.

10/10 will use with caution-anticipation-dread, considering adding a copy with my Alleyway Oracle pledge for the road.

Week after week I become more tempted to try the white gilgamesh

TWO THIRDS BEER AND ONE THIRD MILK

FROM A GOAT OR OF ITS ILK

Ok getting people asking for a review in the notes so here we go.

FLAVOR: Actually not bad at all. I used a wheat beer as sort of the closest modern approximation to sumerian beer, and mixed it 2/3 to 1/3 with goat milk. The flavors complemented each other well.

TEXTURE: Unusual, but not necessarily unpleasant. Creamy yet lightly carbonated from the beer. Definitely gonna bother some people.

AFTEREFFECTS: Sat in my stomach like a rock, and the alcohol hit me like I had had 3 beers instead of one. It does in fact make you feel you're made of wood
