I Need To Be In Hawkins 1985 Right Now Before I Go Insane

my dr self is probably getting wined and dined right now. i don’t want to talk about it.

when you're in the middle of scripting and you realise the world is literally in your hands

me realising that the dangerous DR I'm shifting to is indeed dangerous and I actually have to fight demons and I can't just be silly with my friends

sometimes i forget that i literally am a studio 54 regular before it shuts down for good in my 80s dr 😭 wdym i literally dance for hours on end with some of the most talented entertainers ever

you in your dr — “I want to shift back.” *shifts back*

you here — “I need to do xyz, get into the void state and focus on my reality without any distractions.” *?*

Some of shifters are little too normal over the fact they are shifters. You're LITERALLY a traveller that explores the multiverse. you go through different universes YALL ARE TOO NORMAL ABOUT THAT.

no one knows REAL yearning than shifters i fear...

some of you guys need to realise there is a difference between your consciousness and your brain

your consciousness is you - your awareness, your essence - but your brain is just the physical organ processing experiences in each reality. when you shift, you’re moving your consciousness into a different version of yourself, one with a different brain shaped by different life experiences. that means some things won’t feel exactly the same. your thought patterns, instincts, even personality might be different because they were formed by a different life. maybe a food you dislike here is your favorite there, or a skill you struggle with now comes naturally.

“when i first shift i’m gonna be so freaked out!” well, no. the moment you shift, your consciousness seamlessly integrates into the brain of that reality, making it feel completely natural. It won’t feel like some sudden, jarring experience; it’ll just feel like you’ve always been there, like a natural continuation of your life in that reality.

“i’m gonna be so awkward around my friends at first” nope. there’s nothing to ‘get used to’ because your brain in that reality already knows them. their mannerisms, inside jokes, and history with you will feel completely natural - just like any other day speaking to your friends.

so lets cut out all of the ‘omg i met them and they realised something was off’ or ‘omg i almost had a panic attack when i first shifted i was so shocked’ because that’s just not how it works. there’s no dramatic reveal, no awkward adjustment period. you’re simply there, living as if you always have been.

affirm 'i shift on command' and then set the command. you have this!!!
