>Have you lost someone close to you?
Not really, aunts, uncles and grandparents, but I was never close to any of them.

>How do you feel about dying?
Sometimes indifferent, sometimes I visualize the eternal nothingness and it drives me crazy and force myself to think about something else.

>Are you religious? Do you believe in the afterlife?
No, its ridiculous.

I nearly died after contemplating suicide. Long story I won’t get in to. The thing that stopped was a sudden conviction that Hell is a real place, and I was about to spend eternity there. I felt myself recoiling from it like one does standing too close to a cliff.
After I got out of the hospital, I was a physical and emotional wreck, and people abandoned me. In that place of absence, I starting looking for the one who showed Hell to me as a warning and saved my life.
I began researching the resurrection of Christ, and I am convinced He is who he said he is.
I’m only less sad now because I know Him a little. I know I have to do His will, even though I’m a fuck up. That’s okay though, Saint Peter was too, in his own way, and he was the one Christ used to build His church. I pray the rosary daily, and I don’t miss mass now. You may not be happy if you convert, but you’ll put the world’s vanity behind you. Peace be with you.

>How do you cope with Death?

Terribly. It's one of my more troubling anxieties.

>Have you lost someone close to you?

Four years ago I lost a dear friend in a traffic accident.

>How do you feel about dying?

Terrified, but I have a strange relationship with death. On the one hand, I love visiting cemeteries and looking at fossils, yet I'm petrified of my own mortality. The closest I've come to it was a suicide attempt last year. Funny how the mind works.

>Are you religious? Do you believe in the afterlife?

I'm neither.

>How do you cope with Death?
Badly, I've had multiple meltdowns over it through the years. Generally I try not to think too hard about it, I'm a pretty pessimistic person too

>Have you lost someone close to you?
I've lost some pets and my grandmother. It was all very hard. I'm scared of people like my sisters or parents dying

>How do you feel about dying?
It is genuinely my greatest fear. The thought of eternity scares the fuck out of me too

>Are you religious? Do you believe in the afterlife?
Not religious, I'd like to believe something happens but truthfully all possibilities scare me and I don't know how to cope. I think most likely nothing happens and that scares me too

>How do you feel about dying?
I recall my first time realising that I had to die. I was young, probably 7-8, and thought about it in the night, then cried. I've never been someone with strong, life-changing emotions; I simply fade in and out of experiences and don't feel the core of me has ever been particularly changed. But I do remember it. I remember bringing it up to my friend near our lockers, but not what I said. It's that moment of realising death is something everyone has to go through, and that you can't avoid it. Yet strangely enough, when I've lost people, I don't downward spiral into grief about loss and death

I do think about people who are terminally ill. Who are facing the end, and would wish for anything to have their health back. I wonder how they feel looking at others who they know will get to go on. I morbidly want to ask "don't you hate everyone else for being fine?" The living don't know anything about death, how it feels to have it approaching, not truly. Imagine being in the position where you know it's coming.

>Are you religious? Do you believe in the afterlife?
I've never had the ability to believe. I wish I did, because an afterlife would be a comfort. I want death to be a long, long dream where I'm free to communicate with dead loved ones. But our best guess is that it's similar to sleep (the simplest explanation is most likely the right one). Nothingness, none-consciousness. But I still don't understand how death can be eternal, if life can emerge from that same eternity

I think conspiracy theories are interesting and funny like "what if" stories, like the Dresden Files, but only as long as nobody gets hurt…
I hate the thought that some people take the reptilian thing seriously, or the UFO pyramid stuff and whatever. The concept of reptilian people sounds so cool, like in fantasy stories and the sort of interspecies romance books I like to read, yet, some insist on making it a euphemism for juice or whatever else they're rallying against, it's disgusting.
If I met a snake man, I'd wanna know if he has two dicks and not assume that he's secretly part of some secret society that has magical powers or whatever. And if snake men with two dicks existed, they absolutely would show it off, there's no doubt in my mind that if any of that was real, we'd have really good evidence for it.
Instead, it often just boils down to the invisible demon in your room, you can't see it, you can't touch it, it supposedly does things that coincidentally could be done by the cat and there's just no way to prove its existence because it can also control your mind to forget it and it's also indestructible or whatever and just… It's just so damn ludicrous. And then people pretend like the demon went to possess the cat when it was just running around and acting goofy and boom, dead cat, thanks for nothing conspiracy nuts. Like yeah, it's good to question things, but you actually have to find ways to verify your conjecture and think about how the world would be different if what you're imagining just isn't true at all. What if aliens didn't build the pyramids? Then people did it. Is that unlikely? No, humans can build pyramids, why wouldn't they have built them thousands of years ago? It sounds like a cool project, humans love making cool stuff.
I don't think there's any conspiracy theories I really believe in, like, sure, I'll have my doubts about some things and entertain possibilities but I'll need some good evidence that isn't debunked 100 times over and it should actually make some sense and not just hint at someone having made it up just to be racist, to sell their books and merch or whatever agenda they were following.
Like, some things just align with the kind of world we live in. Yes, doctors do try to sell you unnecessary surgeries to make more money, there's plenty of evidence for it and yeah, there's a lot of corruption aroPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

The feds shut 4chan down. They did a dry run April 1st and almost 15 days later on Tax day, she's gone. Rules of lesser magic inform that they have to tell us what they're going to do. It's on brand for TPTB to use entertainment and/or jokes to convey this information.

A lot more will be revealed soon, stay tuned.

Not entirely sure if I believe it but does anyone else feel like the Prison Planet conspiracy may be real?

Hantavirus seems to be a nothingburger. Hopefully it's because the covid fear programming didn't work even if most people took the vax.

Flying to California, breaking into an empty Los Angeles mansion, and then shooting myself on some rich persons balcony or roof and dying there

Get a gun, shoot myself
Unfortunately it's not that easy here
Slit my wrist every time I hold a knife

Hurting myself, hurting others, getting hurt, my dog getting hurt, general violence, seeing and smelling disgusting stuff, flashes of unpleasant things while I am having a shower or masturbating, bodily sensations that I've felt before and find disgusting. Some noises trigger this bodily sensations and I hate it so much.

Don't hurt yourself. That's really cringe

I don't hurt myself, I get intrusive thoughts about it, hence why I posted itt.

That channel is suspicious as fuck. I liked their video on Michael Aquino but this one was all over the place, specially the allegations about a coven. The Dutroux case is dark enough there wasn't any need to muddy the waters with all that bullshit. The Solvay family is suspicious too though. They are linked by blood by almost any powerful family in Belgium.

I'm not familiar with her work. I've managed to track down a few of her books online for free. Is she GC? So many postmodern female authors are disappointing in that sense.

is it bad i want a friend like the first one. SO bad

Chloe Power/empathchan long before she started attentionwhoring. She was insufferable and I eventually got sick of her shit because dealing with her retardation was affecting me mentally, so I stopped talking to her. To this day she talks about me and asks people for information about my life.

>>12042
Awww you guys are totes besties

>>12043
Not at all, she just took all of the attention she could get from multiple people whether positive or negative and overshared to the max, believing that brought her closer to people, in typical BPD fashion

Not a friend but I had a coworker with Cotard's syndrome. Total asshole moid. He believed he was already dead and that he was only reliving the memory of his life. He said he knew the exact date of his real death. Naturally this meant that no one around him was real, so he didn't have any real empathy. He was also constantly doing dangerous shit and almost dying because he thought it was impossible to die before the date he had in mind. Fucking lunatic.

What do you mean start “as a normie” this isn’t a collective idea that a niche group online possesses. No one knows

>immortal
Good news. You're not immortal. Eventually, you'll die
>start
Just read the bible

Your atoms will be recycled to make another babby, or maybe a tree. And eventually all our atoms will be recycled to make another big bang. You might die but your energy is forever.

Near death experiences and alternative theories of consciousness

I've heard astral projection can work for this

This is more adjacent to the thread topic but any thoughts on this neuroscientist who's talking about communicating with the afterlife?

Apparently Diane Hennacy Powell who helped with it is an anti vaxxer. I think euphoric atheists on skeptic.org are still cringe as fuck though

Apparently the podcast creator struck Dave's video. Bad move though he is douchey as fuck. Putting on my tinfoil hat majorly here but on the escaping prison planet subreddit a lot of Epstein victims have come out to say that he's a shape shifting reptilian (archon) and since Deepak Chopra, Julia Mossbridge and other new age-y people were on the Epstein files I wonder if this whole podcast was a new age Gnostic psy-op to make people think reincarnation is a good thing. That's tinfoil though and Ky Dickens did an interview with Mayim Bialik who has actually spoken of the prison planet theory then again the podcast had a lot of zionists on it so maybe they're trying to fuel the Israel Palestine genocide to harvest us more

i didnt meet them personally, but my friend had just gotten into an online relationship (she helped him produce some music wasn't just discord edating), everything was going good and he was actually really chill. one day he just started texting her crazy shit about [spoiler]wanting to cut her head off and cum in her mouth.[spoiler] genius level flirting here

forgot slash srry nonas

A girl from Mexico who ate human fleash (and she was really into it, wanted to do it again). She said that she was allowed to try it because of cartels (they kill people and sometimes they even eat human flesh). She told me they killed the woman because she cheated on a cartel membe and she was allowed to try it because she was friends with one of them.

Not someone I met personally but I'm fascinated by this guy
