@CTWesleyan@jk_rowling@Michael_AW77@AvaLovelaceX I will never not laugh at the profound stupidity of that absolute horror of a woman saying that. I don't know how she has managed to survive to adulthood being that stupid.
Itโs important to know that the social media ban for under 16s is not a ban for under 16s.
It is a ban on *selected* social media for EVERYONE. Until you identify yourself.
I recently caught @disclosureday at the matinee. It is a decent film, and, as others have noted, its greatest strength is its depiction of phenomena that will feel familiar to many experiencers. The plot becomes a little unsteady in the final act, but the film is definitely worth seeing.
Several poignant moments do elevate the script, but leave important corollaries unexplored. โDonโt be afraid of what you donโt knowโ applies even more urgently to our human family than to anomalous phenomena or โaliens.โ And while โListenโ is always sound advice, without discernment we are vulnerable to being pulled this way and that by powers we do not understand.
More personally, the film reminded me that humanity possesses a deeper wellspring of courage than we realize. When we find it, the impossible can become reality, and even the smallest among us can change the world.
@SecretSunBlog I haven't seen Disclosure Day yet, but I did watch a documentary called Experiencer yesterday. The main guy, Eric Mitchell, is a friend of a friend who is 100% legit in that world. Very interesting. It's on Tubi & AppleTV. Think you & Greg will dig it. @HighersideChats
@SecretSunBlog Sad to think that if Nick Shirley turned up here to report on why the authorities are letting this happen because this has to be corruption at some level, or if Federal Agents and National Guard were sent in, there would be some who would protests against those things.
A Norwegian neuroscientist spent 20 years proving that the act of writing by hand changes the human brain in ways typing physically cannot, and almost nobody outside her field has read the paper.
Her name is Audrey van der Meer.
She runs a brain research lab in Trondheim, and the paper that closed the argument was published in 2024 in a journal called Frontiers in Psychology. The finding is brutal enough that it should have changed every classroom on Earth.
The experiment was simple. She recruited 36 university students and put each one in a cap with 256 sensors pressed against their scalp to record brain activity. Words flashed on a screen one at a time.
Sometimes the students wrote the word by hand on a touchscreen using a digital pen, and sometimes they typed the same word on a keyboard. Every neural response was recorded for the full five seconds the word stayed on screen.
Then her team looked at the part of the data most researchers had ignored for years, which is how different parts of the brain were communicating with each other during the task.
When the students wrote by hand, the brain lit up everywhere at once.
The regions responsible for memory, sensory integration, and the encoding of new information were all firing together in a coordinated pattern that spread across the entire cortex. The whole network was awake and connected.
When the same students typed the same word, that pattern collapsed almost completely.
Most of the brain went quiet, and the connections between regions that had been alive seconds earlier were nowhere to be found on the EEG.
Same word, same brain, same person, and two completely different neurological events.
The reason turned out to be something nobody had really paid attention to before her work. Writing by hand is not one motion but a sequence of thousands of tiny micro-movements coordinated with your eyes in real time, where each letter is a different shape that requires the brain to solve a slightly different spatial problem.
Your fingers, wrist, vision, and the parts of your brain that track position in space are all working together to produce one letter, then the next, then the next.
Typing throws all of that away. Every key on a keyboard requires the exact same finger motion regardless of which letter you are pressing, which means the brain has almost nothing to integrate and almost no problem to solve.
Van der Meer said it plainly in her interviews.
Pressing the same key with the same finger over and over does not stimulate the brain in any meaningful way, and she pointed out something that should scare every parent who handed their kid an iPad.
Children who learn to read and write on tablets often cannot tell letters like b and d apart, because they have never physically felt with their bodies what it takes to actually produce those letters on a page.
A decade before her, two researchers at Princeton ran the same fight using a completely different method and ended up at the same answer. Pam Mueller and Daniel Oppenheimer tested 327 students across three experiments, where half took notes on laptops with the internet disabled and half took notes by hand, before testing everyone on what they actually understood from the lectures they had watched.
The handwriting group won by a wide margin on every question that required real understanding rather than surface recall.
The reason was hiding in the transcripts of what the two groups had actually written down.
The laptop students typed almost word for word, capturing more total content but processing almost none of it as they went, while the handwriting students physically could not write fast enough to transcribe a lecture in real time, which forced them to listen carefully, decide what actually mattered, and put it in their own words on the page.
That single act of choosing what to keep was the learning itself, and the keyboard had quietly skipped the choosing and skipped the learning along with it.
Two studies. Two countries. Same answer.
Handwriting makes the brain work. Typing lets it coast.
Every note you have ever typed instead of written went into your brain through a thinner pipe. Every meeting, every book highlight, every idea you captured on your phone instead of on paper was processed at half depth.
You did not forget those things because your memory is bad. You forgot them because typing never woke the part of the brain that would have made them stick.
The fix is the thing your grandmother already knew.
Pick up a pen. Write the thing down. The slower road is the faster one.
@KTHopkins They can absolutely fuck the fuck off. And when they've finished fucking off, they can start over again.
As a parent I'm not certain how Henry's parents have been able to be so restrained in every way. My heart broke watching that video of Henry. Can't imagine what they feel.
The last 2-3 years may have felt like everything has been in a pause (with little to no movement) as everything has forced you to standstill and really get yourself back, get your health/mental back, to heal, to purify yourself fully and to restructure yourself and your foundations.
Things are shaking up this Summer and into Venus Retrograde in the second half of the year to push you fully into alignment and get things moving again in your life.
A lot of the plans/vision/education you had for yourself end of 23โ to spring 24โ is coming back around to help you restructure your life, foundation and self to hold what youโve been working towards in a new higher and more pure way.
โA great shame rests on those who sided with the mob, the cowed podcasters and influencers, the craven bookshops. In an era of compliance, it costs to speak the truth. The magician has no choice, they must be impeccable. The prophet has no choice, they must speak the truth others cannot speak.โ ~ Peter Grey of @scarletimprint
Beautifully written. Thank you as always Peter. ๐ A shame to all of you who do not understand this.

@booseephus@SecretSunBlog @smokicrucian Omg you made me laugh out loud!! I'm Italian (but American also) too and that's just a sin (homage to my Catholic roots/shackles)! The not liking gabagool part I mean. The bitch ass thing is bang on.
@HighersideChats Just found out via one of @SecretSunBlog tweets and now seeing others. I had a look to see the last episode he emailed, and, well, I'm just going to post the screenshot of what my search returned. Shook me a little if I'm honest until I opened it fully.
@booseephus@SecretSunBlog @smokicrucian That name is a blast from the past! (Marco's) I went to a workshop he held in London pre-covid. Was interesting. We stayed in touch-ish. Our views diverged thereafter ๐& he randomly went for my throat on some thread or other because I'm a CONSPIRACY THEORIST. Gasp/shock/horror.
@HighersideChats What if our body isn't physically required to travel through time? What if we hop timelines and perceive ourselves to be in our current body because that makes sense to our current consciousness so it appears our body is travelling? Or - we're in a multiverse "here" and "there".
Now that all major outer planets have finally shifted you may notice you are called fully to release what was being created in your life from end of 24โ- and all of 25โ as that timeframe was extremely karmic, a transitionary period, a time of deep healing/clearing and was where a lot of old patterns were repeated especially from old timelinesโฆ as it was designed to clear out everything that was keeping you from creating your new foundation from the ground up that is more authentically aligned moving forward.
Now that all the planets have shiftedโฆ you will want to create something new and something that you have always wantedโฆ this time purified, aligned, healed and readyโจ
