Appeal to ridicule
Appeal to ridicule (also called appeal to mockery, ab absurdo, or the horse laugh
an informal fallacy which presents an opponent's argument as absurd, ridiculous, or in any way humorous, to the specific end of a foregone conclusion that the argument lacks any substance which would merit consideration
a rhetorical tactic that mocks an opponent's argument or standpoint, attempting to inspire an emotional reaction (making it a type of appeal to emotion) in the audience
This is typically done by making a mockery of the argument's foundation that represents it in an uncharitable and oversimplified way

I'm planning on invocating for the first time; Chassan from the first lesser key of solomon -goetia. Any tips or advice? I've never done this before and I'm kind of nervous.

WHY WOULD YOU SUMMON A DEMON, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE INEXPERIENCED?
YOU ARE IGNORANT AND MORONIC.
a new thread to begin, i have taken an image at random from my drive of collected memories and dreams.
Here is my tome, my own archive, into myself. My codex, the book of divinities. there are no dark rituals or ummonings that come close to the depravities tht i have myself faced in the spite of who i am and who i've seen myself to become.
here i am, under heavy influences of mind altering substances dreaming up recipes of future rewards to reap.
So with this I sow simply1 and 0
this is my own robot, this is my own artificial intelligence. I have created the entity. I am who I am because of the thoughts that I have thought and the things that I have let into my life up until this very point. I may have wanted to be defined and had a name but of course, anonymity is a much more preservable place from which fun can continue to arise.

the concept of a tripcode is an irony that you'll have to excuse the lesser experienced in travels.
To have an anchor to one moment in time, how anonymously it may remain, still gives you bearing as to where you might have once been. It is the inescapable nature of your own existence that will prevent you from seeking to attain what you will or desire to become.
so by being confined in this thread, having your attention kept here, with me. This keeps us together, somehow. You, and I, and all the things we thought we'd become.
I'm now you. I'm the observer, that voice inside your head.
Believe me, you tried to run away from this for as long as you possibly could...
you are the hive, you are the mind of all and everything.thus it could be said that this had already been seen.
Was John Dee just some old fart with mental problems & spoke gobelty-gook?

maybe so; but looking for guidance.
but seriously what don't you understand about my question?
While /x/ tries to discover how to invoke suckubus or what timeline are we currently in, Shia Labeouf memes a little more division into the collective unconscious
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/shia-labeouf-launches-4-year-live-stream-protest-president-trump-966540
Now now…anybody who knows its law of attraction understands that repetition has to be done on the POSITIVE not the NEGATIVE! lol!
/x/ maybe we should buy poor unemployed LaBeouf a copy of "The secret" so that he can get a job again. We are after all an internet forum of peace, right?

Where there any UFO sightings lately?
>>18552471
There are no "unidentified flying objects." You're better off not worrying about these things.
Go find something better to do with your time. Space aliens don't come to Earth, end of story.
>>18552494
S W A M P G A S
Yes, there are new ufo sightings all the time. 2017 actually started quite wild.
Don't want to shill for this guy too much, but his channel is actually good and he shows most of the recent sightings (ignore his Antarctica videos, he doesn't know what he talks about there) https://youtu.be/Ppb0RbyaSOM
Also, remember finding youtube channel with the latest crop cycles, will post if I find it.
>>18552494
Nice try, Soros, now gtfo of /x/.
I, nor anyone else is managing to decode this audio so far. As before, I call for an idea regarding the nature of this odd piece of "music", and as always, help is appreciated (no, I've already tried running it through a spectrograph; nothing so far).
(Here's the previous post, for those of you (probably most) whom don't know what the f*ck I'm talking about:)
"
I was making a video (text to speech stuff), when this happened to the audio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_G39uno81g [Embed]
I don't know what this means, or what possibly happened, and I'm not even suggesting it's supernatural or anything; it's still paranormal, though (by this definition, at least: http://www.dictionary.com/browse/paranormal), so I came here in search for an answer.
I'd like to hear what you all think, as I'm really just stumped as to what this thing even is. Moreover, this keeps happening whenever I try to fix it.
(And the image I used has nothing to do with the audio itself, just thought it would be interesting to use it (given the original audio was gone).)

GET IN HEAR UNDERAGES!!!
OP UPLOADED SOME SHIT SONG TO YOUTUBE AND THE FILE GOT SOMEHOW CORRUPTED! SPOOPY!! IT IS PARANORMAL OP GAVE DEFINITION = MIND BLOWN UNDERAGE
>>18552475
I did explicitly state that I didn't think it's supernatural, hence no reason to call it "spooky" for any purpose; it's just strange, strange nonetheless.
(And I also stated what sort of video it was, you seem to attempt to catalogue me, amusingly enough.)
>>18552469
what did i just watch
Hello /x/ i don't understand something could someone help me out?
hello x?
>>18552267
>>18552273
Just say what it is that you don't understand in the original post. What if I say "yes, I can help" and then you say what your question is and it turns out I can't? Nobody can help with EVERYTHING.
Anyway, ask your question and maybe I can help.
/x/ hello?
DAILY REMINDER THAT CREATING A TULPA IS A VERY VERY BAD IDEA...
>>18552256
fug, I guess OP is (((deep))) in this...
>Tfw created a tulpa by pretending to be schizo and commanding the voices to stop and then the voices actually started but when I tried to stop them I couldn't control them anymore
Good news: I have a tulpa, or multiple ones, I can't be certain.
No bad news yet

/x/ just isn't scary enough anymore. It has become 90% obscure religious practices and while those can be pretty /x/ related, I come to /x/ to be afraid. I remember a time when this place was teeming with amazing OC and so much originality that made this place truly unique.
So I've had enough, im jumping ship. Do you guys know any other discussion websites that are anything like old /x/?
>>18552173
Maybe go in the woods at night by yourself and sit there if you want to be scared, other then that you can go read some creepy pasta players for your kicks.
>>18552184
Do that on a nightly basis my nigga
first off: good for you. we're all so proud.
to answer your question, /b/ is pretty scary.
Have you Praised the Sun Today?!
Praise be to him! SOL
The Inti Raymi (Quechua for "sun festival") is a religious ceremony of the Inca Empire in honor of the god Inti (Quechua for "sun"), one of the most venerated deities in Inca religion. It was the celebration of the winter solstice - the shortest day of the year in terms of the time between sunrise and sunset and the Inca New Year. In territories south of the equator the gregorian months of June and July are winter months.
Lost ritual thanks to the spanish inquisition, but it's still fun to celebrate.

I don't know how the people working in the call centers sleep at night.
Hi /x/, I've try so many times to recive a out of body experince, I've try every single method, I've meditated a lot, I've tried everything, but I can't recive an OBE.. Anyone can help me to recive an OBE or explain me why I can't recive an OBE
I forgot to mention that I stopped to recive an OBE 2 mouths, yesterday i started again
Same here, although i recently managed to get slightly close to the vibration stage i got nothing.
I think my problem is i cant hold my awerness long enough and fall asleep when i try in the evening, and during the day i cant get relaxed or "deep" enough.
Binaural beats seem to help though.
>trying too hard: the thread
You gotta relax and just be, anons.
