Title: Introductions VIII: Some bad news for new folks
Post by: Doktor Howl on April 11, 2022, 07:59:15 PM
Hello, and welcome to PD.com.  Unfortunately, we're extinct, mostly due to facebook but also because Discordians don't get alone by definition.

You don't have to tell us how zany you are or how fucked up your head is, because we've already been there and done that.  However, you CAN tell us if you want, because we're all dead and won't complain (much).

Anyway, there's a ton of great content buried under 100 tons of angry/bitter bickering, and those nuggets are worth looking for.

Please sign the guest book, using the provided quill and some of Faust's jellied blood (difficult, I know, but it's tradition.)

Welcome back! I think we interacted like literally once during the long slow decline of PeeDee.

The Dok's right. The diagnosis is terminal. There's nothing here. It's a fucking wasteland. These days I do most of my evil on Twitter and only come here to say shit that would make Parag Agrawal's head turn into meat confetti like the bit from Scanners.

My name is Idiotis, I'm from Va, and I've been a Discordian since around 2002-2003.

I practice the arts and self improvement.

I have been crapping all over the graveyard since I got here.

I am a necromancer-in-training. I swoop down on old, dead threads, inject something inane or insightful, and watch the zombies rise. ...or plan on it, once I find more of the right stuff to sprinkle on the corpses.

Great, now we're loitering in a graveyard of consensual shitting. And how is this any better? :argh!:

I quickly regretted that phrasing though. It was an unsuccessful marriage of two similar but distinct concepts:

Title: Introducing the Antichrist
Post by: ArchangelIdiotis on November 15, 2022, 05:33:03 AM
I can't prove this part (I can prove everything else), but in Eschillion Key one of the main character's names was Simon Sade before I encountered the name Eddie Saayman, an individual Crowley named as his possible heir. The first two characters in the book are Ben & Eddie, as in been Eddie Saayman. Simon Sade = ed Ssaimon. Eddie Saayman was A.I. to Crowley, so if he reincarnated he'd be Aiwas.

Onto the stuff I can prove:

March 23, 1985 is my birthday. The Spring Equinox, to symbolize the rebirth of the Sun / Son of God. The number 23 of the Illuminati. The year after 1984.

The individual that requested I found the Individuate Church was born on the Ides of March, and was a childhood best friend of mine. Since the Individuates are a Discordian cult, he is the Pope of all world religion (everyone has to be a Discordian). He's the founder of the Individuates, so he's in charge. According to Christians on the End Times, the Antichrist's Pope of All World Religion betrays him with a shot to the head, and he comes back as Satan (he is just Satan's representative until).

I might be the bloodline of Jesus. My mother's maiden name was Bowers, and according to Bloodline of the Holy Grail: the Hidden Lineage of Jesus Revealed by Gardner, (page 151 of the copy I first encountered), Bors is suspected of being Merovingian. Bowers is also descended from the same root bloodline as the Rothschilds, Bauer.

One year and month before I was born on Valentine's Day, Babaji winked before his heart stopped. He was suspected in some circles of being Shiva.

I'm a 37 year old Virginian (born and stayed), and an asexual virgin.

I have long brown hair and a beard, and look superficially like Jesus Christ.

Edit: I am not promoting the opinion that Christianity, nor the Antichrist of Revelation Prophecy, is legitimate to believe in.

He asked you to found it, but then founded it himself?  What a jerk.

Quote
Since the Individuates are a Discordian cult, he is the Pope of all world religion (everyone has to be a Discordian).
Actually, the doctrine of everyone being a Pope was rescinded by Pope Autochthonous VI.  He said if everyone was a Pope, that made it a meaningless distinction.  He then went on to decree that no-one is a Pope, which is also meaningless, but saves space on his letterhead.

I don't think my "evidence" should be taken too seriously, but consider it better than what some religions promote as proof of the authenticity of their faith.

I'm actually only hoping to convince Theistic Satanists.

23 in my synchronicity research symbolizes importance. It seems to crop up around significant "good" and "bad" events. There was no way to stage a more significant, equinox adjacent birthday.

I am legally named Curse. I can be seen south of Chicago smoking like a freight train and making horrible sounds to the beat of the most godawful music you've ever heard. If it sounds like a demon trying to transmute itself into Fred Durst and looks like cyberpunk roadkill, it's probably me.

I actually am a hypnotist. Like, "I have been offered money to hypnotize someone and declined the payment because I wanted the experience." I've been legitimately accused of running a cult, where my hypnosis was used to brainwash members. Actually what I do with my hypnosis is take willing people to a dark, distant place and surgically mutilate their soul. So I'm basically a cenobite and also would probably be guilty of fraud if I took that money, given they would not in fact wake up with a new pair of mechanical limbs. My middle name is legally Fraudulence, so this is fitting.

I have a dozen holy names, but am most fond these days of "Wielder of 'Oh No Not Again'," as in those are the words you'll say when I'm around.

I am, pay close attention now, a disabled Jewish trans fem-leaning non-binary unpersoned outcast plural nightmare collective. I have over 100 people in my head and most of them aren't remotely human. I reject the label of human or person, I am explicitly an object. Of terror, naturally, but still an object. My gender is fucked in ways you cannot comprehend. I'm in the process of converting to Judaism, if I can ever find a rabbi who will deal with my weird ass.

I earned every ounce of my weird with blood and suffering, too, so in terms of dickwaving edgelord posters around here, I'm top bitch.

I am telling you this not to get you to submit to my glory, but so you stop trying so fucking hard to be cool and start being yourself.


ETA: I should be sure to note that you shouldn't turn this into a idol situation either. I'm not building a cult, because worshippers are a fucking hassle. I feed my fans to the Nessies. I'd say you can ask rong, but rong's long gone. Just stop acting like you're on fucking stage.

Hopefully not too many Nazi Satanists frequent this message board to witness this confession: I was test running how it would look to a bunch of skeptics if I promoted myself as the Antichrist.

The coincidences, or synchronicities, (I honestly don't know which), that I listed are all real, and I can prove all except the first, like I said. To a skeptic, this doesn't prove anything. Signs and symbols. But my ultimate goal isn't to impress skeptics. It is to schism (hopefully a bulk % of) the religious fanatical minded Nazi Satanists, by providing "proof" Satan is at war with bigotry and fascism. By being the Antichrist with an Ides of March Pope.

If I do a good job, the rest of the Nazis can't trust the Nazi Satanists even if not very many schism.

Shiva is Satan to the Nazi Satanists (the point of the Babaji coincidence/synchronicity). If Nazi Satanists are reading this, maybe they can discern more from the symbolic nature of events than so-called "skeptics," and know an Antichrist when they see one.

-Aiwas?

I don't think I'll ever post in the Joy of Satan message forums, or go looking for the Nazis. The synchronicities will hopefully make my writing more entertaining to regular folk,

and I'll start by publishing more short stories to gain traction as a writer. I'm getting old, so the plan may fall through, but the idea is to make a name for myself as a weird tales author and impress the Nazi Satanists into schisming if they happen to hear about my writings, and read me.

So far, I've only been published in the Circle Magazine, Word Riot's Stretching Forms section (used to be one of the biggest flash fiction rags on the internet), the Freezine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, Black Petals, and Blood Moon Rising Magazine. I haven't made much money and I've only earned a little exposure. It's a start.

If I thought Nazis were here, I wouldn't be confessing to the plot to schism the Nazis.

I confessed in an earlier post i wanted to see how skeptics would react to the antichrist themed coincidences (or synchronicities). To test for what to revise.

I consider most of the regular posters at PD.com not scared off by now by other posters to be skeptics. Or at least, more objective and skeptical than religious fanatical Nazi Satanists.

If I got as a reaction, "You really have a case there. Maybe you're some kind of Antichrist," I'd think, Gosh, surely I can schism the less skeptical Nazi Satanists, then.

Instead, I'm thinking, "It sure would be nice to schism the Nazi Satanists, but maybe I can't. Or at least, the plot needs a little work."

oh i think nazis are here. they scutter within the walls. occasionally they come out when they feel safe, leaving little turds in their wake. you can see them quite plainly if you take the time to look

why is that my sense? because the fragile nazi egos (bruised by the guerilla ontological campaigns organised within this site over ten years ago) were not mind-fucked non-consensually into embracing "maybe's" into their logic, but instead found comfort by doubling-down in mutually-validating ideologically-ranked communities which non-imaginatively iterated upon the internet-fuckery playbook that had been used upon them unsuccessfully then discarded

they have selectively long memories

I finally did it, after only 32 years i created a schism within the mind of a Nazi Satanist

congratulations future you. i'm certainly glad i didn't try creating my own schism back then, to dissuade you from accomplishing your worthy dreams and goals

now what?

like, now there are problems to solve for your new buddy if they speak about schism, which we didn't have to think about when they were going with-the-flow before - like job-security, housing, meaningful relationships which provide for growth and healing, family-estrangement. that last one may be a perk

i don't know how i make peace with folx who hate me for existing as i am - but fucking with them non-consensually didn't work back in '22 - just glad the science finally caught up.

So, the idea is to take a group that's already swimming in bad data, and feed them even more bad data so that they "schism", never mind that it's a group without a central authority, semblance of a well-defined ideology, or even any political relevance, making a "schism" both meaningless and pointless.

THAT'S what you apologize for. Not mistaking us for the types of people who might cohabitate with Nazis, no, just wasting our time.

Your priorities are warped, and that's me trying to be nice. There's only worse I can say about you. Q-adjacent conspiracist nonsense, thonk-emoji brained schemes you claim to be to hurt the Nazis you're trying to impress and buddy up to. Amazing.

You aren't going to be my new chewtoy only because ultimately your lack of conviction means it wouldn't be any fun. You wouldn't dig your heels in, screech like a howler monkey or shit all over the floor. You'd give puppy-dog eyes and stand down with a meek "yes Curse, of course Curse". My subs put up more of a fuss -- when they want something I'm offering.

You aren't prepared for the future. I mean, no one is, but you're going to have a particularly hard time of it.

If I thought Nazis were here, I wouldn't be confessing to the plot to schism the Nazis.
oh i think nazis are here. they scutter within the walls. occasionally they come out when they feel safe, leaving little turds in their wake. you can see them quite plainly if you take the time to look


THEY CLING TO THE BOTTOM OF MY CAR CHASSIS AND TAKE SUSTENANCE FROM THE TAILPIPE.

THAT'S what you apologize for. Not mistaking us for the types of people who might cohabitate with Nazis, no, just wasting our time.

Your priorities are warped, and that's me trying to be nice. There's only worse I can say about you. Q-adjacent conspiracist nonsense, thonk-emoji brained schemes you claim to be to hurt the Nazis you're trying to impress and buddy up to. Amazing.

You aren't going to be my new chewtoy only because ultimately your lack of conviction means it wouldn't be any fun. You wouldn't dig your heels in, screech like a howler monkey or shit all over the floor. You'd give puppy-dog eyes and stand down with a meek "yes Curse, of course Curse". My subs put up more of a fuss -- when they want something I'm offering.

You aren't prepared for the future. I mean, no one is, but you're going to have a particularly hard time of it.

This. So much better than I could have said it.
But - same thing. Go fuck yourself.

Anyway, the last thing I have to say on the subject, is my apologies for wasting everyone's time.

What particularly annoys me is that 1.) You tried to run an experiment on us, without our knowledge or consent, and especially 2.) It was a really stupid experiment.

I've been gone that long, I'm basically new again.

Who's left? And if someone could list the current grudges and factions it would speed things up tremendously.

I have a grudge against everyone who left here for Facebook.

I ran rong out of town on the back of a billion fundie spam emails. I felt nothing.

Other than that, it seems like it's just the toothiest of us left. If they can smile for anything other than threat signals, they ran away. It's a bad decade to be bipedal, soft and unarmed.

CNO
Stella
Altered
Suu
Trivial
Cain

and

me.

The factions are, of course, all of THEM against ME, because they know I have access to the world's most questionable sushi, and they want it.  They send the now-unemployed Antignano Brothers around to harass me and try to steal it, but I am much too clever and ate it, even the stuff that hadn't gone past the use-by date that Quiktrip stamped on the plastic wrap.

I see.

I also see Terry. Terry is the resident workplace ist. 30/40/30 racist, sexist, other ist.

For fun, I brought it up at break, just the concept of sushi. I got 5 minutes of "seahorses are fucked up, yo."  something something gender concept something.

It's fucking insane here.

You should move here, where it's normal.  Also, it's the middle of the night and it's still 8 centigrade outside.

It has been effectively over two years since posting with any regularity here, or anywhere but Facebook really. I keep making poetry and memes... Also poememes. I in some ways do not much internally, mentally resemble who I was as 2020 came to a close and I moved in profound desperation to New Orleans where I knew only that it would be warm, and food in great abundance.

I have so far nearly died twice here, once just this last Thanksgiving season from complications of my mRNA "vaccine", a bad case of RSV, and a previously undetected allergy to all food that I have probably had since early childhood at least. The other time was during hurricane Ida when a tree limb big enough to crush the part of the house I was sheltering in missed the house by a foot or so. Moreover I have mutated spiritually in largely beneficial ways just from "ordinary" daily living here and constantly being hip deep in eccentric geniuses to talk to and occasionally befriend. I am at a bit of a loss for the words to articulate it more specifically and so will try to tell a fiction that reflects very real events both internal and external.

The very good news is that I have largely manages to re-integrate myself after the solder saver poisoning in early 2020. I still have unfinished business on that score, but it is nowhere nearly as important as maintaining my current state of well-being. Since changing my diet and other habits I am physically in better condition than ever in my living memory. I have lost about 14+ inches from my waistline in 2 years and cutting all carbohydrates has further thinned my face and extremities by stopping allergic inflammation and water retention. I feel nearly weightless when I walk now, and even at still 385 lbs I can go 5 miles with essentially no breaks and recover in a half hour rest.

I am very glad to be back on pd, dead or not. I have A LOT to say and this is the place for much of it. Good to see you guys!

Bolded is very accurate.

Also hi (again?)

I don't know how many folks will remember me. I am a little surprised to find that this place is still alive and kicking, but I'm very glad it is.

Trying to think of a succint way to sum up where I am at these days, uh... I think this is the best I've got:

I'm a trans woman living in Britain who chose 2022 to come out. My capacity for suffering is matched only by my desire to test it. I will make the bastards kill me and it seems they'll be happy to oblige before the decade is out.

I don't know if we knew each other in my brief time here. I went through a dozen names (Cait, Erin, nullified) before settling on my current name, and I was intermittent and usually in crisis whenever I /was/ here.

But more queers are always welcome in my book, and the British are the enemy of any right thinking person already, so I'm inclined to default to friendliness.
