So, thanks to reddit I was introduced to The Strange Universe of Dr. 58. It's about a person in an alternate universe communicating with the writer(s?) through an ouija board. It's presented as fact, but as a skeptic I find its fantastic tales very inspiring and interesting and kind of make me want to play Ouija. Or at least sit in a session of it since it probably won't work with my mindset.

ugh ouija

that is probably the single thing that most bothers me that people actually believe in, like, holy shit

wait, "ouija" is wrong, let me put it correctly

Honestly I don't really care what people believe in so long as they generate interesting stories.

And I mean, a dominant section of western society believe in a being who live in the sky.

seriously that shit is nearly exactly as legitimate as dungeons and dragons, i mean exactly as legitimate, the entire occult association is from idiotic christians lamenting the loss of the innocence of a time where ankles couldn't be shown and you could kill non-believers with impunity

like oh my god people were worried about satanists back then can you believe that? this was only 30 years ago! my grandmother is still freaked out by that stuff, goddamn

i care greatly what they actually believe in because there's shit like every major abrahamic holy book saying explicitly to kill people who don't believe in what you do, which is a Very Bad Thing

Well, I think I'm going stop before I accidentally spark a religion debate. Look, just view that blog as fiction. Jeez.

Finished my university interview. Admittedly I wasn't perfect in it but I doubt any highschoolers who aren't Artemis Fowl would be. And Artemis Fowl probably doesn't even go to high school or university since he's too smart.

I'm going to sleep soundly tonight.

Re: games fun when stressful and crap.

Just played a level of a game with my brother- over and over again.
It was honestly painful. I was loving it, him less so.
I guess that's just how people do.

Ach, I hate that crap. I think what bothers me even more is my sister's unquestioning, "reality" TV-fed belief that oujia boards work and ghosts are real. I wouldn't even mind if she did think that, if she actually took time to critically evaluate these thoughts.
