Seeing without insight is seeing without understanding. It is seeing without discerning significance, and that is not really seeing at all.

made a sticker for anyone to slap onto their work if they need to

#ramble #i've only interacted with tiktok via osmosis #but something is eating their brain matter and it makes me sad #it's fine if you only want to read light things (all power to you) but don't whine at me because i write about bad people sometimes #i'm so tired

love when ppl defend the aggressive monetization of the internet with "what, do you just expect it to be free and them not make a profit???" like. yeah that would be really nice actually i would love that:)! thanks for asking

#yes i want things to be free like ??? that is not a weird desire #'but but it costs money to keep up' ok and? how is that my problem #the government has plenty of murder dollars they could reallocate a few to make internet services universal if they wanted #also these companies were perfectly capable of supporting themselves before the internet got drowned with ads so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯#edit: muting notifs on this post bc new additions have kind of petered out #so no one feel bad about adding something someone else has said‚ it is not bothering me im just trying to keep my #notifs page cleanish lol #also since i saw some people are being redirected to read my tags: firstly hiiiiii this is a special secret message for you:3 #secondly i have learned since making this that the reason they were able to support themselves previously was because #of investors bankrolling everything #and theyre now finally realizing that theyre never going to actually make a profit and arent as willing to invest #however thats just a minor correction and doesnt change my overall point #once again. so many murder dollars #so thats why im just adding it here in the tags rather than making an actual correction #anyways . love yall 💕#origibberish #bigger gibbers

don’t you love when you’re casually reading a random poem and suddenly come across a line that burrows into your bones and becomes the definition of your heart for the next 17 years

#poetry posting #Me with ‘lord we owe the world such tenderness’#And ‘In the next life I’ll become something useful. like a staple gun. or in love.’#Or ‘our great betrayal is our infinite gentleness’#Like WHAT THE HELL #poetry #reading poetry

Here I am to ramble about something that I read that kept me sane during school, which is "Phantom High".

I am here to say that god well I love it.

I love the twist, I love the way he treats his students, and I just can't help but say that it was wonderful.

It is now completed and translated into english.

It is not a horror series it is more of a mystery, slice of life, and supernatural genre sort of series.

The art is wonderful, and so is the story.

The character development in it.

The way its story flows is just great.

#phantom high #i love it what else can i say?#something to read #rambling #underrated #do read it is fantastic.

What happened to the thirst for knowledge in society? When did we lose it and why? This is such a magical, interesting world we live in, one could live a million lifetimes and still not scratch the surface when it comes to gaining all the knowledge there is to gain. So why are people so comfortable with firstly being told by a black box what is real and what is not, but secondly quite content that that just five channels will tell them all they ever need to know in life? People don’t read anymore, they’re not interested in it because it takes up too much time and effort, it goes back to this convenience culture again. They might have to think, imagine, discern information, you know all those things we are ‘supposed’ to be doing. Its much easier to just slouch back in the armchair with a burger and a coke and let the black box tell you everything you need to know.

Yet the cycle continues as children are thrust in front of the television as soon as they are out of their cots, conditioned from birth to be conditioned by the TV. So it really shouldn’t come as a surprise that we are a world of TV watchers. Imagine living your entire life, getting your lowdown on everything that happens on the planet from this black box in the corner of your room?! Yet people do it, and it only benefits those in power who control those 5 channels. They can propagate anything knowing people will believe it as gospel, and of course the TV would never lie to us would it?!

If people only knew or did the research into what the TV does to the mind then they may just think twice about watching it. As human beings we operate on varying brain wave functions which are alpha, beta, delta, and theta. Our normal resting state is that of beta, this is where we are just going about our daily lives with a certain level of awareness and alertness. This is important when we talk of both the conscious and subconscious minds. Imagine the conscious mind as like the firewall for your computer, filtering information as it comes in and protecting your PC from anything negative or viruses. Your subconscious mind literally cannot think for itself, however if anything gets through and reaches the subconscious it will just react on that information, whatever gets through becomes ideas, viewpoints, and opinions about the world, it becomes our very belief systems. So the conscious mind is extremely important in filtering what comes through to the subconscious. For example you are reading this now so your mind is operating at a normal resting ‘beta’ rate, and your conscious mind is taking in all the information and discerning whether or not it is true, it then either allows (or doesn’t) the information through to your subconscious. Like I said if this is allowed through to the subconscious this will play out in the real world as new opinions, ideas etc. Now what happens when you watch TV is that the actual frequency the television omits literally changes your brainwave pattern from beta to a much more suggestible alpha state. This is almost like a hypnotic trance state, where your conscious mind (firewall) has now been sufficiently relaxed and lowered, almost like being ‘off guard’ which now totally exposes the subconscious mind to the information coming from the television. This is why when you look at people when they are watching TV they actually look like they are in a trance, because mentally that is what is going on, zombified with mouth slightly aghast.

Then what happens when they have you in that hypnotic state? That’s right they hit you with all the advertisements, subliminals, and propaganda, telling you that you need to buy stuff you don’t need, telling you what junk food to eat, how to act, look, and think. You are quite literally being programmed, and that’s why after all they are called TV PROGRAMS! Telling a lie to your vision repeating the same thing day after day, week after week, year after year. “You are not enough and must become more beautiful”, “you must hate Muslims”, “You must eat McDonalds”. Your subconscious mind is being bombarded with bullshit when your guard is down. Billions of pounds a year are made from companies advertising on TV, and God only knows how many billions across the planet getting hypnotized to beLIEve (there it is again in the very word) State propaganda to gain support for yet another bombing campaign in some far away oil rich land.
