    Thoth 93 is certainly a Thelemite. I was one for 10 years till I left it. 93 is the number Thelemites use to identify each other as well as the unicursal hexagram which appears in the video shown. Thoth, of Egypt, is also important to Thelemic lore. Lots of Thelemites end up insane (I nearly did) so it's not surprising there's some Thelemite posting madness on TH-cam. For those wondering Thelema is the occult system developed by Aleister Crowley. Those colored squares are from Enochian Magick. There's a lot of stuff referenced and all of it is Thelemic

      @@NightDawnDusk A lotta people in the OTO do too :P Thelemites, Masons and esoteric folk of all kind are just people there's really nothing all that otherworldly about it all the real aspects of Magick are personal and are more likely to be encountered following your passions be it playing music or dancing or yoga or whatever than spending years studying Enochian Magick or The Goetia. You'll probably get more out of Minecraft than out of Thelema, straight up if it sparks your imagination and allows you to enter a flow state that's basically half the work done to having a mystical experience. The experience of having my black cloak and wand in a bag as I took the metro to my OTO Temple was surreal and felt kinda cool at first but over time I realized it was also silly. Minecraft can be your wand and roleplaying in a server can be a ritual. It's all in your mind and how you process reality, that's all occultism is in the end.
      If you're really looking for insights into the secrets of the universe study physics (actual physics not the hippy stuff) and classical philosophy like Plotinus, Pythagoras, Plato, Aristotle, Spinoza and so on. Occult literally is just a word for "hidden" (not hidden as kept from the public but in a more subtle way like the stuff that's hidden from base consciousness... understanding something like what relativity is and what space and time are in relation to relativity is occult just as much as a Thelemic ritual is... except relativity is based on reality ;) and with the internet there is nothing truly hidden anymore for those who go out seeking. The real challenge now is learning to separate meaningless noise from whatever it is that rings true to the little voice in your head that is always grasping to understand, evolve and become a wiser better person both for your own sake and for the sake of the journey itself. So much of the "occult" is outdated nonsense that is historically interesting but much of it reeks of pre-modern-science attempts to systematize reality, often in ridiculous ways. Einstein was on the right track when he said "I believe in Spinoza's God" and I can only imagine what insights an intellect like Einstein was able to achieve... probably more than Isaac Newton who secretly worked away at occult experiments along side physics... and likewise in a few hundred years what understandings the wisest of us now have will be seen as primitive. That's what I love about The Great Work... it doesn't matter how far you yourself go in unifying yourself with The Absolute, others will come in the future and do so in new and glorious ways. In current year we have so many ways to accomplish the goals of ancient mystics and all of it you can do from home with a little reading and self reflection. All occultism has the goal of "The Great Work" (though may call it different things like Gnosis) but to stick with calling it The Great Work Crowley defined it as "the uniting of opposites; it may mean the uniting of the soul with God, of the microcosm with the macrocosm, of the female with the male, of the ego with the non-ego" which yeh if you're dedicated enough to the pursuit of Truth there's no need for things like Thelema or the OTO anymore... you've got everything you could possibly need but many go nuts because there's just so much and 99.99% of it is distractions and delusions... which is why you get stuff like those silly videos that led me to leave the original comment. Rather than a secret society I now just have friends and lovers who are likewise interested in these things. I somewhat miss parts of the group ritual aspect of the OTO but I've talked to my friends about it and we might play around with the idea without taking it too seriously (taking things seriously is a major trap in occultism, it's all a delicate balance between not letting the ego get too seriously obsessed with the search and not letting the ego forget the search instead getting obsessed by whatever society has to offer as distractions)
      Speaking of Minecraft though someone recreated Boleskine House in Minecraft (Crowley's large cottage in Scotland, on Loch Ness of course (before any sightings of Nessie so local folk like to blame Crowley for the "monster" XD) and which Led Zepplin's Jimmy Page bought for a while as he was super into Crowley. Boleskine is where Crowley attempted to perform the frankly embarrassingly complex Ambremelin Ritual which is supposed to make you come into direct contact with your Guardian Angel. The kind of stuff described by that ritual I've experienced entirely sober just dancing at rave festivals for a few days in nature... other times not so sober but hey use the tools nature gives you, responsibly.

    Doveland, Wisconsin isn't a thing: I've spent 40 years here and never heard of it. I grew up near Shawano, spent years in Oshkosh and still live in the Fox Cities. Also, my dad was in a very popular oldies rock n roll band and has played in numerous town fairs and countless bars, bowling alleys, weddings, supper clubs, class reunions and was even on a parade float in Minocqua. If he's never heard of it, it doesn't exist.
    There are far better mysteries in Wisconsin: the town of Shawano has been infiltrated by a cult that's buying up all the property in the town in order to drive off the locals. They've chased off news crews with shotguns. They bought up a motel and allegedly started hosting orgies/swinger parties at said motel. There is a baby death connected to them-the baby supposedly froze to death after being left in a car in the dead of winter. They even released a "hit list" of Shawano business owners and community leaders. They released it by leaving it at the county courthouse. My sister was on that list, and she sold her business and changed careers because of these kooks.
    The craziest part is that Shawano is like 15 minutes away from somewhere called Tigerton Falls, where a cult leader horrifically killed several of his disciples in the 1970s.
    There was a flap of UFO sightings near Mosinee, WI in the early 1990s. I also had some weird lights/sleep-walking/missing time strangeness during this time period.
    I think Wisconsin is just a magnet of weirdness. I think it's all of the granite.

    I've been following forgotten languages for years now. Here's my conclusion: I think forgotten languages is posting something called "theory-fiction", which is the term for writing that is half fiction and half philosophical/sociological essay.
    In the 90's there was a group of eccentric philosophers and sociologists that formed a think tank called the Cybernetic Cultural Research Unit that published surreal cyberpunk and occult themed essays. They even included an internal false lore about themselves.
    I think what you're seeing here is a group of academics (including some linguists evidently) creating their own theory fiction in conlangs to share with each other.

      except the vast majority of what they are posting is not original. afaik they even said that they just run text through their language program and post the results. whats exceptionally odd is their selection of articles to run through. while many do resemble some of the fiction written by land and co., a majority seem to be reputable publications from actual journals.
      i highly recommend digging into the posts from TheCrawlerFL who was spooked off of the internet after putting in a FOIA request due to a classified cia document number being listed in the bibliography of one of their articles. (the request seems to have actually been recorded, despite claims from CIA record keepers, because the request is logged in the publicly available FOIA black vault)

    19:50 as far as I’m aware the longest fanfiction is one for the subspace emissary which was the story mode in Super Smash Bros Brawl. This fic is called Worlds Conquest and it is over 4 million words long. I haven’t read it but it seems pretty cool because the idea of video game characters from different series meeting up to fight together is awesome. The cutscenes from brawl where the characters interacted were some of my favorite parts of the entire game and it makes total sense that it could be expanded. Video game characters from different series interacting is something I bet a ton of people could get mileage out of writing about and the subspace emissary was a great jumping off point.

    Between the 3 cities I lived in growing up, visitation weekends with my father, and attending two universities in Wisconsin, I have never seen or even heard anyone mention any town named Doveland. I even spent several summers working in Wisconsin Dells, which hires people from all over the world and houses them as part of their pay for the summer, I've never heard of it. However, I really wouldn't be surprised to learn if the whole thing is similar to "Mandela Effect" occurrences. There are several unincorporated towns with names close to "Doveland." Delavan immediately comes to mind.

    Whats up parellel pipes! I lived in wisconsin for 6 years, specifically in the Pewaukee area. The town of doveland was actually something I remember from my childhood (2004-2011ish). People had mugs, shirts, even hats that said doveland on them but like you said, easily could be a hoax to promote the legend. But i do remember my teachers telling us about doveland around halloween, my friends made it a scary story (to us kids doveland became sort of like Oniontown like mythwise if youve ever heard of it). Looking back at it, Doveland at least to me, was like a urban legend or hell even like a creepypasta, that would get spread around on the playground to scare you.

    The TH-cam channel also references The Cube of Saturn, a conspiracy theory from 4chan’s /x/. I am 100% certain that the person who runs the Thoth 93 account is from /x/, and most of the people who post on /x/ are completely insane

      "Longest piece of literature" belonging to fanfic never sat right with me because there are serialized works since the 1930s that are still going to this day, maybe some even older. Superman, the comic itself, has been in publication since the early 1940s to this very day, serialized, has probably surpassed it in sheer length by now. The reason why fanfic is counted and published works are often not because it's hard to justify a book over 1000 pages due to how expensive mass producing it would be. Digital works don't have that issue. If you count the collective word count of massive on-going franchises, it'll dwarf the fanfics.

The practice of making up little towns on small little maps appears to had been a normal practice for when the person or team didnt wanted to put that much efford into the job, so the general consensus is that a cartographer made it up, it was deleted when the zone was re-cartographed, and that old map was used as the base for the legend.

    There are millions of research papers on every topic you could hope for but every one of them is so wrapped up in its own hyper-specific linguistic hellscape that, to someone who’s not deeply imbedded in the very specific topic discussed in the paper, it’s either completely inaccessible or a several hour slog at minimum to even translate a fraction of what the damn thing is trying to say.
    Forgotten languages highlights this beautifully by literally translating the papers into one of many _completely inaccessible languages_ that can only be deciphered by someone who already been given the key to deciphering them.

    It should probably be noted that tulpa (the Tibetan spelling of which is more like sprul pa) are actually a concept derived from Tibetan Buddhism, wherein, to make a long story short, they are manifestations of the compassion of the Buddha(s) summoned as guides to enlightenment through intense meditation and shaped by the disposition and mindstate of the summoner. The very online version is taken from the interpretation of the idea which appears in Theosophy and other weird niche New Age movements drawing on Tibetan Buddhist ideas, which generalises the concept of the tulpa to independent beings created and shaped through meditation and will.
    Funnily enough, I knew about the original definition from when I was little through the very strange children's book Tibet: Through the Red Box by Peter Sís, so when I found out they were something of an internet meme connected to ponies of all things, I was initially *very* confused. As for what I think now, well, I think it's mostly just nascent plurality and dissociation? Which is really interesting in its implications about how the human mind works, and could certainly have some interesting spiritual dimensions, but ultimately it's kind of its own thing outside of what is a fairly specific and rare religious practice.

      Yeah, as someone who's in plural circles (I have DID and practise healthy plurality). Tulpamancy is a term that a lot of people are trying to move away from since the Buddhists who practise it in the context of their closed religion have expressed discomfort with it becoming a widespread idea or phenomenon with a different connotation.
      There are still people who practise plurality by creating headmates/alters (either separate from DID/OSDD, or alongside it) under the term "thoughtforming". It is really interesting what the brain is capable of with enough dedication and willpower.

      @@circuitboardsystem The problem with this line of thinking is that undiagnosed dissociative disorders and experiencing dissociation as a function of other forms of mental illness or neurodivergence are not uncommon, so even if you take the stance that it is impossible to "willingly" dissociate in such a way as to produce an altered state of consciousness, that doesn't rule out the possibility of such an alter emerging in non-traumatic circumstances regardless of the root causes of that malleability of consciousness. Plus, the way that people frame these things can be ambiguous: Consider how many children develop imaginary friends, but sometimes that imaginary friend turns out to be more than that. None of this "glamourises" plurality, but merely recognises that how we interpret our experiences as people who dissociate vary. Note that I say this as someone who has experienced arguments between about five distinct people in my head before-co-consciousness and switching can be truly exhausting and even scary-so please don't assume I'm trying to sugarcoat matters.

      @@circuitboardsystem There are points in this piece which are not unreasonable and I'd broadly agree with, but the framing leans hard into respectability politics territory which I honestly find really dangerous, in part because it presupposes a "solved" state for dissociative disorders based primarily in research by singlets who have historically seen total integration/final fusion as the ideal end goal of DID/OSDD treatment, and in part because of how it can impact people with undiagnosed dissociative disorders who might simply view their experiences differently for whatever reason but are nonetheless deserving of support. There are certainly some bizarre misconceptions which a very tiny minority of people seem to have, some perhaps rooted in other psychological disorders and other simply fanciful, but while dispelling these is likely necessary, I feel like attempting to gatekeep people who might simply be interpreting their condition differently-for example, people who cannot recall a particular inciting traumatic event as precipitating their plurality but, again, might remember having always had a complex internal dialogue-does more harm than good in the long run. To give a concrete example, I have met at least one person currently diagnosed with DID who first began to seriously question whether their experiences were more than simply a product of being on the autism spectrum following what they initially assumed to be a successful attempt at producing a thoughtform.
      Additionally, there are theories of mind which suggest that a unified self is not the starting point of human cognition, but rather than say that trauma is *absolutely necessary* to produce a multipartite sense of self, instead suggest that the self often continues to exist on a spectrum of compartmentalisation, with plurality or multiplicity existing at the extreme end of this compartmentalisation, and that while trauma no doubt encourages this, the underlying tendency prefigures it. That said, I'm not a neuroscience expert, so I'd advise reading up on this on your own.
      At the end of the day, though, I'm sympathetic to your frustrations with outsiders, as you see it, essentially doing hardcore LARPing under the guise of a disorder which directly impacts your day-to-day life. That fucking sucks. But at the same time, maybe it's because I spend a lot of time in very small, tight-knit circles of very specific plural people, but in terms of who I've met, that sort of person feels like more of a boogeyman meant to demonise us than an accurate portrayal of the few self-identified endogenous/non-traumagenic systems I've met-who I admit I'm not sure *are* non-traumagenic, but it's not my damned business to tell them how and why their brain works the way that it does.

    The surveillance camera guy stuff got deleted for legal reasons. He has 18 court documents that I've found so far convicting him of stalking, harassment, voyeurism and criminal trespass. Most of those are obvious about what he was doing, but there's also something else. You can legally record someone in public without consent (most of the time), but when he focuses on a subject and then monetizes it with expressed opposition to it, that is also a crime. He also stated that it was his intent to film people against their will and intentionally aggravate them. So, in effect, his entire channel was himself posting evidence of his crimes.
    He mentions the reason he was filming to begin with was to show how people react differently to a person following them around filming and stores/cities security cameras. But that is not a very good argument. Majority of cameras are inside if private establishments that the person can willing enter and leave, while state or government owned cameras have very tight control and restrictions on how they can be used, so the comparison is minimum.

There is a large facility under the now small modern city with its own diesel generators and rooms to house thousands of people. Turns out it was built during the world War 1 and 2. I took a snowmobile and went to one of the entrances in the mountain, and saw old rail road tracks and a huge hill worth of materials that where excavated out from the digging of the tunnels during the building of this base. Today the entrances have been shut, and what used to be a military radio listening station up on top of the mountain now has more modern telecom equipment there. An oldtimer I talked to said that it was built on a need to know basis. And that he was sure that almost nobody knew what really was under them this whole time any longer.

Lunar surface beyond earth is covered by dark rocky zones to the extent of two miles as per the sample taken from the moon's surface, during a critical maneuver in orbit, and landing on a proper spot.

Rapid air in the spacesuit is needed, using the astronaut's equipment to avoid space sickness. Rapid movement of the suit is crucial, with control of the spacecraft as per the sun's rays and the sample taken.
      The spacecraft will fly like a fast aircraft with the pilot chosen and flying, producing important data such as speed and energy of the flying object. The astronaut will land like a real pilot, controlling and landing the spacecraft, planning important experiments and testing of the spacecraft can be done with the astronaut on the moon.
      The black satellite (ABL) is a high-energy laser weapon designed to be mounted on an aircraft Boeing 747 fuselage. It uses a high-energy chemical oxygen iodine laser (COIL) to direct intense light energy at a target on the ground, such as enemy missiles, to destroy or damage them in flight. The ABL is designed to operate in various weather conditions and against multiple targets by employing adaptive optics to counter atmospheric turbulence and enhance the laser's effectiveness.
      An enemy missile can be destroyed in midair within seconds. However, an enemy missile approaching can create its own heat source, such as engines and warheads, in large ballistic ranges. When the laser fires, it creates an intense beam of light and heat that causes the missile to break apart, burn, and explode with the release of energy and debris into the missile's flight path. The system can engage multiple missiles simultaneously."
