TIME IS AN ILLUSION.

-before starting this post i want to make a few things clear :

1- 3D = your “current” reality. your “conscious” reality that functions with “time”

2- 4D = your actual reality. the one that doesn’t function with “time”, your “subconscious” reality.

3- the 4D >>> 3D, the 3D is nothing but a reflection of what the 4D is made up of, the core belief.

i will start of with a few examples of why time isn’t real. it is simply an invention that humans created to manage their day-to-day activities. time is simply an invention. it is not real.

THE ROOM & THE ROOFTOP.

i want you to imagine a room. a room with no doors, it only has one small square shaped window where you can see a field outside of it, you focus outside the window to see people walking, the first person was an old man in his late 40s going to work. you saw him walking in and outside the frame registering his presence in present and future as he walked off,

seconds later a woman in her 20s walked in front of the square shaped window, you again registered her presence in the present (as she was walking in front of the window) and the future (she continued walking off, out of the window’s frame)

a few other seconds later, a young girl walked in front of the square shaped window, you registered her presence in the present and future self before she walked off to the end of the field following the woman and the man.

now the only two tenses that you saw everything in was present and future, correct?

picture someone standing on the roof top of the room you were in, what tense would they have witnessed the old man, the woman and the young girl walking in? they would have seen it all in the present.

SPACE AND ITS LAWS.

one of the most mind-boggling theories that i’ve heard about space (before correlating it to manifesting & the law of assumption) is how we view everything in space in our current present tense when everything that we’re viewing is in the past tense.

all the stars that you see at night, all the black holes that have been discovered and many other space phenomenas ranging from planets that are a billion light years away to collisions of different universes are all in the past tense. everything that you see is all in the past tense.

collisions of certain universes that are reaching our universe so we can view them with our technology are collisions that happened billions of light years ago. and we’re able to see them now, in our present tense.

one of the simplest examples i could provide is sunlight, the sunlight takes around eight minutes to travel from the sun to the earth, what we view and see and feel as the “sunlight” is from the past.

it took billions of light years for the view and shape of the universe to reach us, to reach our own present tense.

the existence of time is merely an idea, “time” itself- as mentioned before- is nothing but an invention of humankind to manage their activities.

LIFE ON MERCURY.

the biggest and most obvious difference between mercury and earth, is time.

while earth’s one “day” is made up of 24 hours, mercury’s one “day” is made up of 1,408 hours.

in this third example, i want you to picture yourself and a sibling, friend or any other person you want.

you both were born on the same exact date of 2000, july 1st, 12:00 PM.

the obvious difference in time between earth and mercury will have an affect on both of your “aging times”

if you were to stay on earth, you would age normally and live a healthy life compared to what the other person would go through if they were to live on mercury,

if the second person lived on mercury- the second person would undoubtedly, be way younger than you are when arrived to earth, and compared to you.

since time is way slower in mercury than it is on earth, the second person will age slower,

- what does this have to do with manifesting?

your current reality, -that you’re perceiving with your five senses- while using your conscious mind is nothing compared to your subconscious mind that doesn’t even function with time.

your subconscious mind lives in all three tenses at the same time, “time” doesn’t even exist for your subconscious mind.

when you affirm and persist for a certain desire, command your subconscious that you do have this certain desire. that you do own this certain thing you want, your subconscious mind doesn’t question it.

because your subconscious mind accepts what it’s given. it doesn’t live off the five senses like your conscious mind does. it feeds off of the thoughts that you feed it daily, it accepts everything. because it doesn’t depend on time nor the five senses that you perceive your current reality with.

use your subconscious mind to your advantage, it is powerful. it brings everything you want into reality. whatever you’re able to think of in your 4D, you can manifest it into your 3D instantly. if that’s what enters and saturates your subconscious mind who’s a slave to you then what’s stopping you from getting your desires? absolutely nothing.

your first and easiest connection to the 4D, a reality where time doesn’t even exist is your subconscious mind.

please remember how time isn’t even real for your subconscious mind. if you want something to happen instantly, it will because it has no choice. you, with your conscious mind, aren’t even able to perceive a quarter of what your subconscious mind perceives every nanosecond. your subconscious mind is incredible. it’s a beast. use it to your advantage, and live the life that was once just an “imagination”.

Dear Corvi Dable, Time is a lie. A lie they've been telling you all your life. They don't want you to have a Good Morning all day every day. Because if you did, what power would they have left? Your Eternal pal, Bud☀️🧙🏼‍♂️✌🏼

We were fighting 30ft tall deforestation constructs (chainsaw arms) and after a chainsaw tornado AoE attack, it activated its self destruct.

Marigold used her Misty Escape to teleport to its head and did enough damage with Shillelagh + Booming Blade to kill it before it exploded.

AAAAAAAAAAA

I FORGOT TIME EXISTS AND NOW IT FEELS LIKE TOMORROW AND IM IN YESTERDAY AND I CAN’T EXPLAIN HOW WEIRD THIS IS IT’S LIKE FALLING ASLEEP AFTER SCHOOL AND WAKING UP TOMORROW.

An unwinding of my thoughts…

Time doesn’t truly exist, yet we are the only species that insists on using a clock and calendar vs our evolution given circadian rhythm. We’ve been duped folks and it’s time I say, “No more!” No more getting flogged my the minute and hour hands of Daddy Time! I did not ask for this kink. Not my kink. Unsubscribe, thank you. 💜💤

Today’s emotion is: Not understanding time

‘Time, Wondrous Time’

Tonight, as I write this, my best friend is travelling back home from his international trip on a flight of four hours. Here’s the quirky thing though. He will on his flight when it is around 10:30pm in that country and around 8:30pm in mine, and is going to land home when it would be 12:30am here. Two hours. If he gets on his flight and falls asleep for four hours, he would reach home and only have spent… two hours.

The other day, I was watching a reel on Instagram by @onlinekyne and she was explaining how different cultures have different ways of calculating time. She even explained how a certain culture was actually in the year 2016, and how in another we (the ones strictly adhering to the Gregorian Calendar system) would actually be almost 2 years older.

Confusing, eh?

That’s exactly what time is. Confusing. Fascinating. But most importantly, a social construct; one that has been enforced to make sense of everyday circumstances and happenstances. And if time is a social construct, so is age, of course. And if age is a social construct, why worry if you’re 25 and still in search of your passion and purpose while watching your peers get settled? Why cry if you’re 32 and still growing up? You’re simultaneously younger and older than your legal age in some part of the world, somehow.

But, I deviate from my thoughts here.

What I wanted to point out is how the very concept of space and time presents so many questions and possibilities. I am no scientist, of course, but I am sure there are many questions about time still unanswered by the ones who are in fact scientists. I myself have so many in my mind. I wonder if all of them will ever get addressed, in time. See what I did there?

Meanwhile, maybe the bookworms here can suggest me some good books to read - books that deal with time in a mind-bending way, books that deal with time as the magnificent, brilliant thing it is, books that engage with time from a psychological aspect.

If this post is confusing to you, well… I never promised sanity in my writings.

When i look at the clock, i often don't see the hours.

I just see a threat.

[thriftdyke]

it really does bother me how no one can seem to answer the question “what even is romantic attraction, really.” like some people are like “it’s who you wanna kiss and cuddle <3” and I’m like ok well kisses and cuddles can be either sexual or platonic depending on context. “It’s who you feel passion/desire/arousal for” well that just sounds like sexual attraction which you can have without even knowing somebody so I fail to see how that’s romantic. “It’s who you want to go on dates with” I go on dates with friends all the time plus “date” is a social construct anyway there’s really no innate difference between a date and hanging out. “it’s who you have deep feelings for” great news for you that can be literally any type of relationship. my friend told me she defined it as “who you wanna give roses to” and I’m like do u hear urself??? like the more I talk to people the more I’m convinced romance and romantic attraction is an elaborate socially fabricated illusion that has no real defining characteristics. and like there’s nothing Wrong with it being a constuct but why people are so attached to defending the supremacy of it is something I cannot for the life of me figure out

the case of docm77 v zombiecleo: a very incomplete summary of events

i, of course, strongly recommend going to doc's video (or bdubs, cleo, joe, or skizz's, once they exist) and watching the whole thing for yourself i could NOT stop laughing. but for those of you who want a vague summary of some stuff that happens in the courtroom:

bdubs is insisting on being called "your highness" as opposed to "your honor".

we START with bdubs explaining he has set up a dramatic five-strike system; if either side gets five strikes (things that upset bdubs lol) he will "uh, not give them the death penalty, but--"

doc immediately tries to use this to take advantage of the system and get cleo strikes.

he instead accidentally immediately murders his own counsel.

it has been like One Minute.

"just in case anyone dies, there's a jury deliberation room under construction, there's a bed in there"

bdubs is paying everyone a diamond block for showing up if they listen to his judgement. help.

"thrust his sword into said swine" so skizz's opening speech is GREAT.

"wow, that was really good. but the camera is over here, so if you could do that again and look into the camera for me--"

"defense, first off, how do you plead?" (doc, grasping for his vague knowledge of american legal dramas) "i plead the fifth. i plead the fifth. uh. right?"

joe, in his opening speech: "this is esteemed around the world as a place where two adults who act like children can come to have their differences settled by you in the most entertaining manner."

HELP. "cleo is bringing to the court not an affair between two adults with an unsettled matter, but an adult and a large baby."

HELP IS JOE'S DEFENSE THAT DOC IS A LARGE BABY AND THEREFORE CAN'T BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS ACTIONS.

joe: "you know, cleo has a lot of communication problems." bdubs, with great feeling: "yikes."

cleo, under her breath: "i'm gonna kill him."

"just a minute i'm setting up my lawyer", ren says, carrying the armor stand he had in the stands with him to the bench and putting false's head on it,

ren: "i cannot recall." bdubs: "YOU CAN'T RECALL WHAT HAPPENED?" ren: "i cannot recall if i cannot recall."

why is skizz doing a foghorn leghorn accent now,

skizz, about doc: "this is proof this man likes to intimidate, that he gets off on it." no one comments on this phrasing.

sorry ren making an armor stand falsesymmetry as his lawyer and companion in the stands is so funny.

"this is more evidence cleo is a poor communicator. she can't control her man--"

joe is very clearly just trying to make everyone in the room mad and it's really funny.

HELP. BDUBS BUILT A HEADS AND TAILS MACHINE TO DECIDE IF THEY'RE GOING TO ALLOW OBJECTIONS.

anyway it rolls tails so it overrules skizz's objection.

skizz's accent and vocabulary just keeps getting more and more exaggerated i think he's going for approximately benoit blanc,

beef: "he forcefully approached us and said he's the guy who wants all the wood." cleo and doc, snorting and giggling at this as one,

i feel like i should note that bdubs has a fireworks crossbow that he's calling his "whip" and hitting people with when they do something he considers wrong.

this leads me to wonder if bdubs thinks whipping is normal in a courtroom...?

i think its really funny that skizz is actively doing like, correct types and moments to do an objection, and it almost sounds like good lawyering, and then IMMEDIATELY bdubs goes "it's time to HEADS AND TAILS!!!" and breaks that illusion completely.

"well, it's heads, objection sustained, strike that from the record." joe: "well then i guess you'll never know what my point was." beat of silence. bdubs: "never mind, let's just add a strike, and you can say it,"

"i don't know how the esophagus entered this situation at all?" "let's pray it didn't. geez." "i was not thinking of doc's esophagus when i built the giant fish for his hourglass." <- this only barely makes more sense in context,

"no further questions your honor." "seriously???"

every time joe calls doc either a baby or a manchild is SO FUNNY. why is this his argument. it's SO FUNNY.

"but he has not proven mens rhea, which you your highness are very familiar with but for the viewers at home is not a gendered form of diarrhea--"

cleo, to doc: "doc are you sure you want to win this one?" doc, in clear and obvious distress: "i'm not sure of anything anymore man i just, i don't know,"

bdubs then interrupts to do the sponsored segment of court.

"the tall claims court is brought to you by!" bdubs puts a disc in. 13 starts playing. "shoot that's the spooky record. that's the worst one." he continues with his bamboo shop sponsored segment spiel anyway, with 13 continuing to play,

"i'm not going to ask for money, i'm just asking for a simple injunction against doc. he won't be allowed to use diamonds for redstone anymore." "WHAT??? THERE'S LIMITS TO THIS, OKAY????" "calm down doc, we're not gonna--" "WHAT NO WHAT CALM DOWN???"

"cleo i have to say that's way better than anything skizz said. skizz was talking and all i heard was bla bla bla bla bla but that was real heartfelt. if you're thinking about paying him, maybe don't."

doc: "i want to make peace and love that's all i care about i'm just a humble boutiquer"

"i felt like as her friend i needed to teach her what it feels like to lose something" i love how deranged that is doc keep going

"but it happened and i think i'm insane, right," doc says, then nods at joe.

"yeah this is really good" cleo responds, perfectly happy with the idea of doc declaring himself insane for no good reason,

cleo: "doc is just completely unhinged when people mess with his redstone, and i feel like my punishment would take away that emotional bond."

joe: "objection your honor, my client is unhinged in every context."

i like how this is "make fun of doc" day.

bdubs: "i'm going to deliberate quickly then i'll come back with my judgement." (turns around for like five seconds.) "and i'm back!"

HELP DOC HAS BEEN BANISHED TO A SINGLE BLOCK IN THE SKY WITH A CHEST ON IT FOR TWO WEEKS

THREE IF HE TOUCHES THE GROUND

AIR JAIL...........

bdubs adjourns court. doc, immediately: "WHAT THE HELL JOE??" "i did my best, man :/"

"DO YOU KNOW THE VEINS ON MY NECK ARE ABOUT TO EXPLODE????"

jevin in the background of doc losing his shit just kinda murdering skizzleman for fun,

doc's main objection to the sky island is "BUT I HAVE THINGS TO DO :(((((("

doc ends the video standing here:

in conclusion: yeah this seems like a very fair trial with no ridiculous elements at all. very serious and befitting the sanctity of court. yes. you should watch it for a very serious hermitcraft experience,
