just found this book. interestingly i am fairly certain this series was folded into other books later, although im not sure. either way this might actually be from 1911 and continues my sub-plot of ellen white books spontaneously emerging into my life
i really like finding things over 100 years old when im... in the field. also that fit into historical instances (ie i believe there was an edit and reprinting of her books around 1911 just before she died). this next one is killer. check this out. ur not ready for this one
yo (1906)

recently one of the new internet analysis memes has been something called dead internet theory, the idea that large parts of the internet are astroturfed + essentially bots + fake, things like that. i think this has taken off not because its literally true, but for another reason
i used to work at a front desk somewhere, and id be sitting there with this guy all the time. we had nothing to talk about. i noticed he was on this site imgur all the time. we were literally just sitting there for hours so, i checked it out, being interested in... the internet.
in case you have never “hung out” there, its like reddit culture, but the format is you press the left and right arrows and just go through images and gifs people have posted, and then people make short comments below. thats the whole site, and its very insular. like reddit.

i just like angels
last year was so insane. feel like i made this + then could physically feel my brain give out a little bit, like doing a huge satisfying deadlift (not that i would know) and immediately shifted my energy over to the comics front. although recently i can feel the balance restoring
thats gotta be my favorite single image i made last year for sure

i have seen the word vs shape “discourse”. just want to go on the record as saying i cant spell + my job / craft is literally manipulating shapes so im all in on shape gang. in fact i can only engage with words and ideas as interacting shapes so its shapes all the way down for me
i find this conflict particularly interesting because i notice it within myself, for example if i am 100% in “drawing mode” and suddenly have to write something i occasionally totally lose access to the spelling part of my brain and will accidentally write words phonetically
after playing guitar and bass all of my music theory knowledge is also based on shapes. theres no going back for me.

its just sci-fi. its not real. IVF which i assume is at least an order of magnitude less technologically complex only has a success rate of 1/5 to 1/3 per time that they try it. even if you double that, that means attempting growing a baby in a real womb only works ~1/2 the time. Image
and then they want you to believe theyre going to start growing them in like a giant cell phone or chicken incubator or something lmao. most peoples conception of what is real or possible technologically is radically warped by movies, which they internally process as real.
u still cant even get cell phone service in some normal places. almost all international data is sent through physical cables that run under the ocean (not satellites). the sci-fi world they want u to imagine that u live in literally just isnt real. its a collective hallucination Image

william miller (millerites, got people amped for Jesus’s imminent to the day return in the mid 1800s) is the only case ive found stone cold documented of something im sure happens often - people convincing a doctor or therapist checking if theyre insane of their worldview. [...]
basically he read the book of daniel and ran the prophecy through corresponding with a few other parts of the bible and determined that it said Christ was returning in a specific year, in the 1840s (i am not saying i believe this although obviously i think its cool + interesting)
so he got really obsessed with it, spent years going over it, and was like yeah im totally correct, this is what it says. so he started telling people. they of course thought he was insane. specifically he got labeled, a very cool 1800s term, a monomaniac.
