I'd like to think something personal. Something unique, and which has been part of a personal experience that you've had (lucky or otherwise). Otherwise, I'm not sure. I'm a strong believer in luck, and that it should be used rarely, and in moderation. The whole good luck / bad luck situation. But, otherwise, good luck, I guess.

I had a dream last night where by I was instructed (in my own voice) to investigate 'fractal time' or 'chaos history' - not sure about the second one. Other themes in the dream include being chased by the Joker (from Batman) with the sequence repeating with minor variations like in Dr Strange.
So tell me /x/, what is 'fractal time' exactly?

>So tell me /x/, what is 'fractal time' exactly?
The 1990s. Every dickhead with an Atari or Amiga was looking at "the infinite world of fractals" which all looked the exact same. Might as well have been fascinated with a calculator dividing 100 by 3 and going "WOW" at all the INFINITE 3s.

So there's this little girl my family knows, and she is fucked up, she is the argument for people can be born evil.
Her parents are both farmers, they are animal lovers, and two of the kindest people anyone could ever meet. But unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried they couldn't have a kid. But they were both tested, they were fertile, so it was weird they weren't having a child when they were trying. After several years of trying they finally got lucky, they were gunna have a beautiful baby girl! They bought her into the world with love, she was an only child, but she wasn't spoiled. At age four things started to go wrong, there's too much to tell, so I'll give you the few most fucked up occasions.
>Age four
>Her parents are really busy
>They're sheep farmers and it's lamb season
>They decide they're going to teach her the ways of the farm
>they bring her in the barn
>The first sheep is going into labor
>Her father is showing her how to help the sheep while her mother talks her through
>On the third sheep birth she says she wants to help
>Mummy and daddy flood with pride
>She helps as much as she can
>After five lambs have all been birthed her mother and father leave the barn to get cleaning shit
>They return and all the lambs are dead
>This four year old girl is covered in blood
>She killed them all
>Those lambs she just helped birth
>She fucking killed them all, all in the same way
That's all I heard of that one, don't know how they dealt with her

Fastfoward a couple years
>They have two pet sheep dogs
>The dogs are brothers and they look almost identical
>Parents see her outside playing with them
>Think it's just cute as fuck
>She runs off, dogs follow
>They go out of site
>About five minutes later they hear the dogs fucking howling
>Parents run outside
>Find daughter, covered in blood
>She's cut their faces open
>She's holding a piece of glass
>Wait a fucking minute
>They look at the dogs closely
>She's cut them identically
>She gave them the same shape cut in the same place
>Dogs are scarred for life
>>
A year after that (we don't see them as often anymore, I'm sure she's done loads in between the stories I've got, but due to life we only see them a few times a year now)
>At their house, having a party
>Family and friends all there
>All the little kids avoiding the bitch
>She's on her own
>Know she's evil, but still feel sorry for her
>Her fat aunty goes up to her
>Starts talking to her
>Can't hear what they're saying properly over the party
>Suddenly fat aunts face drops
>She starts shouting
>"You are a nasty little girl! You're evil! You're wrong!"
>Little girl is just laughing while this fat bitch is losing her shit
>Fat bitch storms off
This one was weird because I've never seen anything like it, if I was six or seven and an adult screamed like that at me I'd have cried like a bitch and told on her. I just wish I knew what she said, it has to be bad for an adult to react like that.
>>
Is she being abused by anyone? There are cases where abused kids even at that age start doing really horrible things.

I've tried Googling and such, but without proper keywords it's hard. So I'm seeking a video I saw on Youtube at least 6 months back.
It was a (Japanese) dub of a crude Japanese 3DCG comic. The VAing makes it seem goofy at first but it grows darker. It's about this kid who's offered 50,000 yen if he can stay in an isolated space by himself for something like 10,000,000 years, but he'll forget all 10,000,000 years once it's over. So he takes the offer. And he spends all that time, alone. He figures out physics, he basically ascends, until the time is finally up. And he forgets. He's pleased he made all that money by doing nothing. So he takes the offer 10 more times in succession.
Image semi-related, had the same kind of feeling.

Thanks. Been looking for this.

"Another theory of magical thinking is the symbolic approach. Leading thinkers of this category, including Stanley J. Tambiah, believe that magic is meant to be expressive, rather than instrumental. As opposed to the direct, mimetic thinking of Frazer, Tambiah asserts that magic utilizes abstract analogies to express a desired state, along the lines of metonymy or metaphor. An important question raised by this interpretation is how mere symbols could exert material effects. One possible answer lies in John L. Austin's concept of "performativity," in which the act of saying something makes it true, such as in an inaugural or marital rite. Other theories propose that magic is effective because symbols are able to affect internal psycho-physical states. They claim that the act of expressing a certain anxiety or desire can be reparative in itself."
Neat.

>I'm atheist
Yep, in spite of contradicting evidence, you are, as we now know our brain is literally built to release dmt when exposed to spiritual practices, you are designed to be religious and wired accordingly, meaning that atheism is probably a mental illness.

I believe that we are all one, and as a result of that, when one of us dies, we'll either instantly shift to another person's point of view or reincarnate into a new body.
I don't believe in astral projection. I think it's just lucid dreaming but convincing yourself that it's real. The methods to lucid dream and astral project are the exact same.

Ghosts. Tons of evidence spanning decades can't be beat

Maybe drugs and telepathy, sometimes when I'm under the influence of LSD I start kinda not quite hearing, but definitely receiving messages from other people. It's very vague and it's usually just like a "we're all here" kinda thing, which makes me doubt it's anything other than my own mind, but I think the paranormal will first be found by studying the human psyche
What really happens after you die?

You also become lost to history even if you're remembered for a hundred thousand years, and that's not even a blink of eternity.

So I have a few stories regarding a weird work colleague of mine named Steve if anyones interested in hearing them.
Hes the nighttime receiver for the groery store i work at plus part time General Merchandise stocker
Now to give you an insight as to how and what kind of weird Steve is ill give you a few examples
>gets upset at trivial shit and punishes himself for it
>broke pallet one time and started smashing himself over the head with a broomstick
>only reason he didnt really hurt himself was because another co-worker, Jim, managed to calm him down
>apparently didnt realise that that kind of shit is insured by the store and thought that he had to pay for it
>would disappear completley from the store premesis with noone knowing where he goes
>like he would just walk out of the store and not come back until the very end of his break just in time
>wouldnt take his car, even in the winter, just walked right out of the store and into the streeets in the middle of the fucking night
>he doesnt do this everytime though
>spotted him a few times upstairs just outside of this kitchen slash community room people have birthday parties in reading a magazine
>but he was sitting in a chair directly behind a large display of t.v.'s so you couldnt see him unless you really looked
>cant really form a coherent sentence if you put him on the spot
>even asking a simple direct question regarding where an item would be or where you would like him to put a pallet of something
>"uh, yeah" "um well uh" stuff like that between words
>will smile at seemingly nothing at all, even when hes working
>will also laugh and talk to himself here and there
cont?

So I spotted something similar to this surveying my friends neighborhood in the van nuys CA area last night it hovered over the block for around 13 minutes before I noticed it was not a typica toy drone someone got
>>
No. What makes a drone weird?
>>
After hovering around the neighborhood 3 times it shot out a good 40+ miles in distance at very high speeds then did a very sharp turn came back hovered for another 3 minutes at this point I realized it was not a typical drone so I try to record or take pictures and it just disappeared infront of my eyes.
