Anything that seeks to prevent anyone from traveling through time is mortal.
On more advanced timescales, everyone has a rate of mortality through time.
Rationale:
1. I've always felt this way.
2. Time travel is physically possible.
3. Someone has to be the first to declare it.
>So what is a permanent stance and why is it important?
A permanent stance is a declaration of intent that will never change no matter how history is manipulated. This is an important step in stabilizing history because it takes a stand against the forces of time. After a permanent stance is taken, it becomes possible for time travelers to oppose the principles of that stance.
Since the past is usually less advantaged than the future, establishing peace between past, present, and future requires us to adopt a special understanding of a "foward action" in time. You can think of it as a timeless version of, "He started it!" Basically, whenever a time traveler has the means to acquire actionable tactical information over another person or party in the past, they have the ability to take forward action against them by modifying history. Take ancient Rome as an example: It was public knowledge at the time that Caesar was emperor, but this historical information won't give a time traveler the means to create a map of every guardsman's schedule for the duration of his reign. If seen, a time traveler would instantly become a suspect, even if his identity hasn't been born yet. Similarly, sending microscopic cameras back in time would be a forward action because it'd create a tactical map of the area.
While we should endeavor to make time travel possible at all times and to all places, forward action should be avoided at most (but not all) costs. Declaring a permanent stance puts you at risk of being the target of a forward action in time for any moment following the declaration.
Prior to the acknowledgement of a permanent stance, one should be considered a citizen of eternity.
>A Bill of Rights
Citizens of eternity ought to be guaranteed the following rights:
1. You have the right to maintain an equilibrium.
2. In accordance with the first right, you have the right to have your equilibrium threatened in a clear and concise manner exactly once in the whole of history. This means that if you suffered a forward action in the form of a threat to your equilibrium on May 31st, 2362, any modifications to history that result in a divergent alternate version of yourself following that threat are clear and explicit forward actions against you. This includes modifications made by yourself in your immediate non-divergent future.
3. In accordance with the second right, you have the right to threaten every equilibrium once. A threat toward one equilibrium will be considered a threat towards any connected equilibrium. Threating every equilibrium is allowed with the admission that doing so is a threat to any of the equilibrium you maintain. Threating your own equilibrium is completely allowed due to the nature of volition and the fact that nobody can force you not to change your mind.
4. In accordance with the first right, you have the right to declare yourself foreign to every equilibrium so long as the declaration cannot be construed as a threat.
5. In accordance with the fourth right, you have the right to accuse anyone of being linked to an equilibrium you maintain so long as the accusation cannot be construed as a threat.
6. In accordance with the third and fifth rights, you have the right to dismiss any threat as "not a threat."
7. In accordance with the sixth right, you have the right to construe anything as a threat.
8. In accordance with the first and seventh rights, you have the right to completely ignore an attempt to construe a non-forward action as a threat.
A forward action in time is, at a bare minimum, any attempt to tamper with the past.
Equilibrium is the ability to prevent a forward action before it can be attempted.

Hey /x/, had some freaky shit go down outside my house last night and I was wondering if anyone might be able to provide some insight on what it was.
A little backstory: I currently live with my grandparents in the middle of Buttfuck Nowhere, Oregon. They've been kind enough to let me stay in their guest room while I work and go to school. They own a few acres out innawoods.
I was on my way home from work last night and it was dark. It has been raining for most of the day without let up. I was traveling down the private road we live on, carefully driving over fallen branches and other detritus from the fir trees that grow on either side of the road and I could hear the occasional stick fall and hit the top of my car. Out of the corner of my eye I see something move, and some object comes flying out of the first on my right and hits the roof of my car with a loud ass THUD, pretty stark and different from the pine needles and sticks that had been falling.
Weird thing is, from the angle it hit, it seemed like it was thrown, which struck me as strange.
So I actually get to our house and the rain's pouring even harder. My car has an oil leak so I don't park in our drive way, instead I park off to the side of the gravel road next to a fence that leads off into the forest and the creak in the ravine behind our house. As I pull up my headlights sweep across the underbrush, and I see something go running off into the forest, in the direction of our house.
Now, I've seen deer and owls and raccoons before, all kinds of normal forest life likes to hang out around or property. This wasn't any of that. What I saw had bare skin, slick and shimmering in my headlights and the rain. Pale, light grey skin. And it was moving on two legs. So, I'm freaked out by this point. I shut my car off and run for the sliding glass door at the front of our house. My grandpa's big red pickup truck isn't in the driveway, which means they aren't home yet.
Cont...
>>16983908
- continued...
So I get inside and I lock the slider up behind me. I try to calm myself down, reassure myself I was just seeing things. Our kitchen is the first room inside our house once you go through the sliding glass door, so I flick on the lights. There's a big pane glass window in there too, so I look outside, tying to see if I can see anything. All I see is rain and trees, so I head to my room to change out of my work clothes.
As I'm headed back to the kitchen, I see it again, more clearly this time. This thing sees me and runs right by the front window. Hairless, no clothes (no way out was human), thin, probably about 5 feet tall. Then, right as it goes by (fucker was fast) the power goes out. I grab a flashlight and a kitchen knife, go to my room and fucking wait.
Nothing else happened, but I'm curious to know if anyone knows what the thing could've been? Anyone else in the area have any similar experiences?
skinwalker?
>>16983984
Possible. Do skinwalkers have pale gray skin?
Guys I'm genuinely scared. I've been reading about this blind Bulgarian prophet named Baba Vanga that died in 1996
Here are some of her predictions for the future, remember she made this at least 30 years ago (put the dates a few years further):
2010 – World War III. War will begin in November 2010 and end in October 2014. Will begin as usual, then nuclear will be used initially, and then chemical weapons.

Don't be afraid OP.
Fling enough shit at a wall and some of it is bound to stick. I can pretty much guarantee that if you wrote a book with hundreds of predictions, some of it will come true. The world is a big place. Just keep the wording vague so it is open to interpretation and be a little bit world aware.
Two people were walking down a long empty road. It was dark.
Now someone write the next sentence and go!
they then made it home and never encountered anything paranormal on the way there.
>>16983789
But by the time they got done posting about it to /x/ their day included shapeshifting anal probing aliens and a talking rabbit the size of Detroit.
>>16983807
"Man these shrooms are great!" Said one of them.
I'm requesting the picture of the alien and the owl talking and the alien is talking about a pile of gold and diamonds to owl and at the end he says "owl you best not be fucking with me."

This has happened to me on phychedelics many times.
With technology like this in existence, is there any way to trust what you see on tv anymore at all? Why is /x/ not talking about this?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eXVspNUeiWw
i just instinctively dont trust anything anymore and this gives me all the more reason to continue feeling this way
>>16983687
Noone cares, we're doomed. Surveillance 24/7, propaganda on tv, you can't trust the state.
>>16983687
may be the reason behind the "reptilian eyes" phenomenon with pop stars and politicians and such. More believable than them being actual reptilians anyway.
can someone explain to me what a kabbalah is or where i can learn more about it
it looks really interesting
checked the sticky and the books there are all dead
i dont know if they're a good place to start anyway
>>16983683
Kabbalah is a form of Hebrew mysticism that seeks to bring a sort of union between the practitioner and the On High. It developed after the Hekhelot/Merkava traditions, picking up steam around after the Genizah fragments until it's more well known form (Lurianic Kabbalah, via Zohar, etc) developed around 1000 in Spain and Italy.
There are hundreds and hundreds of resources. These days I like David Chaim Smith. Aryeh Kaplan is good too. Lots of people start with Israel Regardie.
There's a link to a mega over in the /omg/ with a folder devoted entirely to the Kabbalah.
First of all Kabbalah is a science.
It's a shit tier one.
But to answer your questions.

She looks like a ventriloquist dummy.
Anyone ever actually summon a spirit into a visible, creature like form? Can it only be done during certain times?
Basically I've been approached for the last 3 Halloweens by Some strange individuals and an even stranger.... Entity. After the first couple times I decided to put my abrahamic god aside for a change and pray to something else, and they're definitely listening.
Afterwards I was getting strong ideas in my head how the rest of the process works. Mainly summoning and binding an entity to me, which these strangers that I am encountering are very eager for. The problem is I still do believe in God, as he has also contacted me the way he does, and once I take that last step with others, well I think that would be a one way trip.
I'm a pathetic quasi virgin, and really the only appeal to this communing with spirits would be to literally have my life be an anime, interact with a cute demon girl, though I've heard these spirits have their own desirable form I'd have to deal with time to time, less cute...
But why are they only contacting me during Halloween is my problem? Obviously I'm desirable enough to pester annually, but if this summoning can only be done one night a year, at least a strong enough to see something cute, I'm just not sure that's worth a dip in the burning lake of fire.
So for anyone with an attention span, what do you think? Am I right at all about how the date affects these ethereal beings? Does my own age impact things, is 30 indeed an important wizard age?
>>16983293
Fuckin' do it breh.
It will be fun.
>>16983315
I just always hated horror movies. There is a whole trick or treat thing to this situation but I hope they can understand my hesitation. I'm even almost over any sort of punishment for doing these rituals, God could have tried a bit harder on this realm.
Just hate scary things.
>>16983293
Halloween is the day of the dead in the Bible, nothing to do with entities you roleplaying faggot
Just saw 4 military helicopters flying over Disney World in formation. Disney's airspace is pretty strict here.
Didn't get to take a picture of the helicopters since I was working. They looked like this though.
What's up /x/
>Didn't get to take a picture of the helicopters since I was working. They looked like this though.
Thanks for the pic, as I had no idea what a helicopter looked like.
>Disney's airspace is pretty strict here.
Who do you think restricts airspace anyway? Hint: Not Disney. The military wants to fly over they do. Not paranormal.
