I now consider researching conspiracy theories to be a hobby of mine. Of course, as a hikki, this information is of literally no use to me whatsoever, and I do not have the charisma to "educate" others. It is simply a pastime.
Many people act like simply researching these very alternative ideas is damaging in and of itself. Popular on wizchan youtuber named "K9 Aversion" recently announced she will no longer be creating content simply because people among her fanbase were discussing 5G towers and anti-vaxx ideas within her communities. Discussion alone is so offensive? Why? I do not even believe many of the ideas proposed myself and just enjoy thinking about them.
Because of these extreme reactions, I feel it necessary to give this disclaimer. Again, I do not necessarily believe the things proposed in this thread but rather enjoy thinking about it.

Please do not discuss theories that are political in nature in this thread. I don't want it to be deleted, although I find them interesting as well.

Some examples I've been thinking about lately:
- Alien abductions are real, however they differ from the normalfag idea of an alien abduction in that real abductions occur spiritually and not physically. And these abductions are NEVER to your benefit and you leave very unhealthy and emotionally damaged. They happen during the sleep normally, however sometimes they can happen while awake and when this happens it's similar to a date rape drug– you have a 2-5 hour blank spot in your memory when you "wake up" and have a feeling of general unease.

- The extension of the flat earth theory which claims the entire sky is a hologram, and sometimes that no planets except Earth exist. There are many youtube videos that document sky hologram "glitches".
- Alternatively (not flat earth related), that the sky is itself a giant living organism and that it sometimes sends shards of itself down to attack or observe people (they look like blue blankets and fly at great speeds.)

- You can fall through the ground like a video game glitch and get stuck in an infinite void on certain parts of the planet.

- Dinosaurs existed up until the early 1900's as evidenced by dinosaur tracks on the top layer of the earth that are way too well preserved to be from 60,000,000 years ago.

- Some gnostic wizards think that if they become spiritually elevated enough that they can cease ingesting food of any kind and live heaPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Since I've had the internet, I've seen stories about giants around the world and no matter where in the world they are, they always look like this. Exactly human, except for the height and only having 4 fingers and toes.

I remember hearing about the testimony of a Smithsonian employee, who, on his deathbed, confessed to the cover-up and destruction of anything to do with giants and anything that did not fit into the historical and evolutionary narrative.

I wonder why. What's wrong with knowing that the history of the world is much more than what a mercenary scientist who sells himself to the highest bidder tells you?

>So why should they do evil against their own citizens
The CIA specifically has a massive lack of oversight and accountability. That is the main reason.
Ideally such organizations should be kept on a very short leash with a very narrow mission scope. That has unfortunately never been the case for the CIA.

>According to Aztec legends the Quinametzin are giants that inhabited Mesoamerica and Mexico in archaic time.


>The Quinametzin and other humanoid giants are mentioned in Aztec and Mesoamerican mythology and in Spanish chronicles.


>These mysterious beings stood over 10 feet tall and weighed around 600 pounds.


>They lived in a time known as the Era of the Fourth Sun and it is said that they built the pyramids of Teotihuacán and the Great Pyramid of Cholula.


> These mythological beings are associated with the narrative of the Five Suns of the Aztecs, which is about the existence of five eras with five different races in the remote past of America.


>They were created by the Gods in the Age of the Fourth Sun: that of Atltonatiuh (Sun of Water).


>The Ríos Codex or Vatican Codex A, which focuses on the Toltec-Chichimeca people, shows the Aztecs battling and capturing one of these giants.


>The name of the giant that appears in the codex is Quinametzin.

The word comes from ” quinametli “, which means giant.
Aztec mythology says that these beings inhabited Mexico and Central America and that the native peoples fought against them.

I grew up on police procedurals and detective stories so reading about real world case files of some of the most infamous cases is extremely interesting to me.
I am not going to speculate on the mind of succubi, I will just say that crimes and how they are solved have always made for compelling narratives to me.
That said I only really have interest in solved cases. Unsolved ones aren't my thing. Make of that what you will.

After Reading Fingerprints of the Gods and Magicians of the Gods, I wonder if it’s possible the existence of an ancient and lost civilization like those books described. I know a couple of books who give more evidence of that. 2 books written by the Spanish investigator Javier Sierra, called: En busca de la edad de oro and La Ruta Prohibida, if you want to read them. But, the only book I know who gives a serious proof of that is Hamlet’s Mill. That makes me think if the civilization is cyclical and the event that erase a possible civilization could happen again to us. Just think about it.

This has always made me curious, because the politicians around have connections and taste for the satanic, something that goes far beyond the adolescent liking for edgy things, like VivziePop. These people know what they are doing. They use ritual dates to do political acts, they take good care of their steps not to be discovered and they always show themselves as champions of Christianity, or some crap like that. How they live talking about God all the time, when they serve everything that is against him. Also, when they do their rituals and sacrifices, do they get real power from it, or is it just a sadistic display of power towards the common person.

I wonder if Amazon's big promotion of Hazbin hotel is to encourage satanism, like the overton window, in the next generations?

>When you write a story, are you trying to make people learn a specific lesson or political view?
No.
I don't really write fables (specific lessons) or political works.
One day when I feel competent enough I hope write a work loosely inspired by Atlas Shrugged, just because I am convinced I could get the same ideas across without the story telling being so shit, but as far as stuff I have actually written or currently writing, they are pretty devoid of politics, preaching, or propaganda.

If you don't want to write stuff with a message then you don't have to.
Write what you enjoy writing and tell stories you think someone would enjoy hearing. When it comes to fiction, it's about the storycraft first and foremost. Focus on making a good story told well first and foremost and worry about all that other stuff in subsequent drafts.

A Walk in the Park

Prologue


Steam rose from the black reflective disk. Transfixed, a man sat gazing into the darkness. He did not move; he did not blink; he did not breath in that moment as his mind fell deeper and deeper into the inky darkness. The crashing tinkle of the bell of the front door drew the man out of that black pit. He peeled his eyes away from the abyss and observed the outside world once more. The sound announced the entrance of a uniformed police officer who scanned the area before walking with a deliberate stride towards the man, taking a seat across from him . The officer looking down nervously at his fidgeting hands. The man's icy blue cold stare looked through the officer, face set in a stony lack of expression. The officer glanced up opening his mouth to speak before stopping and quickly looking back down with a shiver. The silent moment stretched uncomfortably into a minute. The man's gaze unwavering, the officer still unable to bring himself to meet it.
"Can I get you anything darling?"
The stalemate broken by the outside influence of a well meaning waitress who leaned expectantly at the officer with her little notepad primed to take a order.
"Uh, no. I will just be here a couple of minutes I think." The cop said.
Shifting her focus she ask "Freshen up your coffee dear?"
The man gave a single nod. With that assent she was quick to refill the dark mirror in a mug of black coffee and leave the two men alone.
The man sipped, then took a long deep breath. The comforting smells of sizzling lard on the grittle mingling with the strong coffee brewing. He set the mug down and cupped it with both hands, letting it's warmth radiate up his limbs and defrost his cold expression. He finally look at the officer sitting across from him. Really looked.
Bags under his eyes that don't fit his still youthful face. Nicks in his face from shaky hands and shakier mind. The slump of his shoulders and unease in his posture. He still nervously fidgeted, unsure of what to do with his hands.
Taking another sip the man cleared his throat. "Danny?"
The officer jittered a bit on the spot before responding "Uh, right, um, how do I explain this? "
He paused to collect his thoughts "Detec-"
The man raised his hand to interrupt. "Just Jack now. "
The officer nodded before continuing in a rush "I called you, what I mean to say is that you are the only one I know who can deal with this. WPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Is there anything stopping you from learning more about the 19th century?
If that is the only thing preventing you from writing a book set in that period then a research session and maybe reading books from the period should get you in the proper mindspace with the knowledge needed.
From there you can just look stuff up whenever you run into it in your story.

Like I knew very little about the terms for parts of forts, but there was a fort in my story, so I just looked it up on the spot and put it in. It was that simple.

I didn't read the light novel yet. But both in the anime/mangá Satou is not glorified in any way and sincerely it will be a big surprise if the author has found some way to do so in the light novel. In the manga he seems more likeable because of the way the author portrays Misaki (a liar who was using Satou to have some fun from what I remember) but that's it.

I could say the same as you did. To me the story of Satou should go beyond the ending of the anime (I can only remember the ending of the anime at this moment), where he finally gets a job, since as a neet I think that he would have a lot of hardships trying to readapt himself to what would be called a "normal life".
Actually I didn't read all the books in the chart, but I've read some of them and a lot more since I'm really interested in literature.

Recently I've been getting into photography. I've found that after doing so, I perceive moments in different ways. Things simultaneously seem more transient, yet more permanent. It's a sensation that's difficult to describe, except to say that I am more 'aware' of the moments around me. For obvious reasons I have avoided urban areas, but in terms of landscapes and natural shots, it is quite peaceful.
