Was in Tokyo during the 2011 Fukushima earthquake.

I was breastfeeding my baby when everything started moving. I'm used to earthquakes ( was born in an earthquake-prone country) and by then I've been in Japan for a couple of years so this was just like "oh well, another one". After a little shaking it stopped for some seconds. Then the big one started so I grabbed my kid and darted out of my apartment out to the street. Everybody came out at the same time. I didn't think it was safe to go back home (at least not yet) so I just started walking around the area, (and yes the ground was still shaking a bit). After some minutes of walking and a couple of blocks away I saw a big bunch of people outside of an electronic shop so I went to watch what they were watching. What I saw will forever hunt my mind: live footage of the tsunami just fucking destroying towns and thousands of lives. For , literally, 10 seconds I almost shat myself because I thought this was happening in Yokohama but when I asked someone they told me it was in the Tohoku area. It somehow didn't make me feel better.

For the next few days (and under a nation-wide warning that stated that an even bigger earthquake was expected soon) I couldnt sleep at all. There were many smaller earthquakes here and there, and the tv would give its warning about one coming many times a day. (same with the phone warnings).

I still get a little anxiety when I hear the "earthquake coming" sound.

Unfortunately the "earthquake cycle" (or wharever its called) and predictions state that a BIG one is going to happen in Tokyo "soon", since its way over due.

When I was younger (probably around 9 or 10) I had gone to the beach with my family and some family friends, and it was a semi-secluded beach out in the countryside with nearly no one there. It was really relaxing and calm and everyone was kind of taking it easy. As the day went on me and a couple of people started swimming a bit farther back not realizing the tide was coming in as well as the fact that there was a rip current in the area. Slowly these massive (and I mean massive, it was a surfer beach) waves started crashing down and while two of the people were strong enough to break out of the current and swim to shore myself and one other person weren't and we kept getting hit with waves and pushed out further into the ocean. No one could hear us screaming either since we were so far back. Eventually the two people who were strong swimmers got to shore and got people's attention and two surfers who were there got on their boards and swam out to get us. My friend had fainted at one point and I was shaking like crazy when we got to shore. My mom was in hysterics as well.

You know that feeling your skin has when you sit on the banks of the ocean and leave where you can almost still feel the waves hitting your skin? That sensation didn't go away for like three days.

It isn't spooky or anything like that, but it really fucked me up with the ocean and now I don't go near the beach when there are waves, lol.

I survived an an attempted terrorist attack but now I have mad PTSD from it and I feel like people don't believe me outside of my family so I just have to suffer in silence when friends suggest public transport to me.

That's so awful, anon. It's one of my biggest fears. What happened, if you don't mind talking about it?

>>2611 the TLDR is a crazy extremist tried to blow up the train I was on, whilst simultaneously playing weird footage at me. I left at the first available stop screaming down the platform and the police took me home and updated me on the mans arrest etc later. They told me he was a "big deal" in such circles which fucked me up more tbh.

This makes me sound like a crazy person but I don't want to go into too much detail because I convince myself sometimes the evil group who cannot be named will come and get me if I talk about it publicly.

Thanks for posting this. I grew up close to Death Valley, and this story gives me a mixture of nostalgia and envy. One must love a good mystery.

>>1042
Old ass necrobump but this was an interesting read!

>>4351
I like to see when someone is reading years-old archives. Cheers!

>>4351
good find anon, it was an interesting story

Yeah but it only happens when I'm either really tired or angry/stressed/depressed.

Same, I think it's normal and healthy to not obsess over "who you are" when you're not around other people, as well as to have different "egos" that you present to different groups of people.

i just feel really fucking bland, nothing redeeming of me and i just feel like bore the shit out of people, and sometimes i’m just sitting there like i’m a blank slate who just listens to other people’s conversations

I feel like I have no personality, but I'm self-aware. I can feel my personality starting to shift the longer I spend with others, even if I don't want it to. I feel like a sponge that can't help but soak up other people's selves, and the only way to avoid it is to isolate myself.

This is you.

>man crushes mother and toddler child to death with his car he got from his rich daddy while illegal street racing
>normies want to release him because he's "so cute"
Do normoids even possess self-awareness? Fucking hell, i hate these people so so much.

It’s just so tiresome. Why can’t normies stop simping for murderers. We’ve seen it dozens of times already

>>4276
>>4323
Screw that, I sure as hell do not know these people. What I am well acquainted with is moids who derangedly loved american history x, so as far as I'm aware, the way that people normally think of a guy being too pretty for prison is in the sense that he seriously fucked up by ending up there and should have been aware that crime-options are a privilege that he had ended up exempt from.

>>4323
Most women are disgusted by serial killers The fuck are you talking about lmao.

And everyone is so quick to point these weirdos out but not the abundance of men who fap to violent porn

i've known someone who killed himself. And i honestly pray for this to be fake. It would be so much less burden on my heart to know if this person faked it all. I wonder if anyone is going through something similar.

I am :(
<3

>>1394
how long has this person been dead for you? for me it has been 2 years. And i still get dreams where he might have faked it all, and that one dya i just randomly meet him on the street.

I followed prettylittleliar’s thread with regards to Plaaastic’s (real name Nhi) death before it was inactive. There was this screenshot. According to this facebook post in Vietnamese, it translate:
Sad news:
Our daughter and sister, Le Tran Mai Nhi, born in 1994, has left this world on 15/12/2018.
The funeral will be held from 11:00 to th 13:00, Wednesday, date 19/12/2018, at funeral home of Bach Mai hospital. She will lay to rest at Hoan Vu - Van Dien - Ha Noi.
Reported by eldest son, Le Vu Long, on behalf of the family.

We can learn from this post that:
1. Nhi has really passed away
2. Who her family members are

- Lê Vũ Long is her elder half brother who brought her on his dance tour, you can google and find out who he is. He also acts, just like their father.
- Her father who she mentioned was famous in her book is Dũng Nhi (can google him too), an actor in Vietnam, while her mother is Bình Nhi

I actually did it once, not really that interesting, though. When I was 17 there was a guy I was talking to and I felt like he was manipulating me so I said I was going to kill myself and it was his fault. The next day I pretended to be my mom and somehow he believed that I was actually dead.

Kind of, yes. My boyfriend is deeply connected to me, we understand each other and know what we are thinking like I am a part of him and I his. Our personalities match impeccably. This is the biggest reason I will marry him. Aside from all our thoughts and ideas matching in some way, we also have the tendency to appear exactly when the other one is just done with work or business, like "I was just about to call you!" but happens a lot more often with us.

I don't think it's magical, but it does feel very divine and deep.

>>4241
>>4243
i think it makes more sense if it's someone you don't know. if it's someone you're close with then it's just… being close with them. knowing what someone's thinking is hardly impressive when you've had years upon years of interactions to learn their thought patterns lmao. i suppose that also applies if the celeb op's thoughts match is someone she's been following for a while

>>4245
I did not know my boyfriend for years when that happened. I became his girlfriend because we had that kind of connection immediately, before prior contact or experience. I hardly knew him for a month when I decided that.

ugh i feel like i have one with my cyber stalker. she's a girl but she always changes her bio/posts things that I was literally thinking. stuff I don't even have in my notes app (thought i was hacked for some time). it's so weird. but she hates me, never wanted to actually be my friend just actually BE me. hope that makes sense bc it does freak me out (been ongoing for years)

>>4314
>it's so weird. but she hates me, never wanted to actually be my friend just actually BE me. hope that makes sense bc it does freak me out (been ongoing for years)
Oh yeah, there's an entire thread devoted to this on this board.

Magic is real.

I WANT TO BE A WITCH I WANT TO BE A WITCH I WANT TO BE A WITCH

Should we start a coven?

I still wish it was real. Wanted it to be real so badly as a kid and in my teenage years, especially when I started getting into anime and books about magic.

Some of these are really good o_o

in my city someone built a cathedral of junk in their backyard, my friends think it’s creepy to look at but I think it’s rly cool, my bf and I were going to visit it before quarantine :T

>>188
this one looks so wild how much does rent cost here, SO big if true

>>1552
That's genuinely cool and I'd love to go there. It reminds me of the City Museum in Missouri, USA, an interactive 10-story museum which was built in an abandoned shoe factory.

I tried once and I don't think it did anything.
The fact that it's such a new thing makes it sus too. If subliminals worked, wouldn't they have existed in some way or form before the internet?

It works like any other placebo, but it doesn't work to change your facial bone structure or for any drastic physical changes.

starting to think the biggest problem with subliminals is that they're almost always geared toward changing the appearance. I'm still not sure if that's truly possible but I do believe in reprogramming the subconscious. basically you can change your thought patterns so much you truly believe that you're beautiful/confident/etc. and it becomes true. also trying to get in tune with my "divine feminine" through this process. whatever that means.
meditation, journaling, prayer, and daily positive affirmations seem to be more effective than listening to audio recordings.

This was the last subliminal I watched. I think it worked a little but only temporarily.

I think it makes sense that they could change your mental state with subconscious messaging, but physical? Definitely not. The changes would have to be perceived by your brain washed mind, so it's still not really physical.

Also I'm not sure if it's a bit sussy to use LOA if you're religious

>>3287
they were used in brainwashing i think? and apparently michael jackson and prince used their own as well

>>3892
it could all very well be, i had no idea interrogation videos like that were obtainable like that, he's got a nice voice

>>3605
Any good psychology youtubers?

>>3928
Robert Sapolsky has an entire semester of lectures for free on youtube.
Jordan Peterson lectures are good, the rest is meh.

If you instead mean someone who will give you persuasion techniques, that game is completely filled with PUA. The other people in that game are the business-minded types like Scott Adams.

I for one hate JCS because he seems to be projecting his own view onto the scenario rather than just letting it stand. It's absolutely infuriating trying to observe the flow of a conversation, and having it paused every 10 fucking seconds for him to run his mouth. When he's good he's good, but he seriously needs to figure out when to stop fucking talking sometimes.

>>3929
>jordan peterson
>sapolsky
peterson is an insane quack, sapolsky shills for troonery using crap neuroendocrinological claims. neither have any integrity, both have an agenda that either intentionally or unintentionally seeks to denigrate women through "science". peterson is the bigger quack of the two, however. jbp is a complete clown.

>>3930
Why is Peterson a clown? I keep digging to find anything he says that denigrates women and I can't seem to find it. I'm told it's there, but I've yet to see it.
