Don't look back. You have it.

✧ Orpheus and Eurydice

This is going somewhere I promise

Summary of the myth:

Orpheus traveled into the land of the dead to retrieve the woman he loved. When he finally arrived he begged Hades and Persephone to let Eurydice return to the living world with him.

Moved by his pleading, they agreed to let the pair return. On one condition, she must walk behind him and he must never turn around to make sure she is there with him. If he does, Eurydice will return to the land of the dead permanently.

Orpheus took the deal, but as he walked, fear began to build. He could not hear her footsteps. He worried that he may have been tricked and that his lover was not with him after all. The further he went the more his doubt consumed him. No evidence of her presence travels with him, only silence.

Seconds before crossing the boundary between the land of the living and the land of the dead, Orpheus allows his fear to get the better of him and looks back. As a result, she is pulled back into the land of the dead forever.

There are different versions of the myth, all with their own reasoning as to what made him look back at her. In some versions he is terrified that she isn't walking with him, in others he looked back a second too soon as he had crossed the threshold but she had not. In the end, it never matters why he looked back, only that he did.

✧ Your manifestation is Eurydice

It is incredibly tempting to seek evidence, but the physical world is not what validates you.

Assume and don't look back. It does not matter if you don't see evidence yet, in the same way it didn't matter if Orpheus could hear her footsteps.

Nothing in the physical world can stop your manifestation. Not seeing it does not mean you do not have it. Not feeling it does not mean you do not have it. Nothing and nobody can decide if you have it but you. Unless you look back, unless you go "what if I don't" or "I don't hear her footsteps she must not be with me", you still have it. Unless YOU decide that it is no longer yours it is yours.

Orpheus wanted evidence too.

Stop looking for proof and realize that you are the evidence. Your word is LAW. What you say goes. Once you declare something to be true it IS. You are the creator of your reality and truth comes from YOU. You decide what is and isn't true.

You are the creator of your reality. Whatever you say is true is true. You don't need to worry about how, you said it would happen so it will. You don't need to worry about when, you have it now. The physical world cannot tell you what is and isn't yours only you can.

What is the purpose of looking back??

Unless you're giving it up entirely, quitting is just self sabotage.

My line of reasoning is if you are not ready to give up on your manifestation for good what is the point of no longer persisting? If you're going right back to manifestation Tumblr to look for a new "key" did you really give up on manifestation or just yourself.

The first thing you're going to do after you cave is Google methods and tips and advice. So what is the point of quitting? You aren't really giving up on loa, you just don't trust yourself at all.

You're still looking for ways to manifest, you're still trying 230+ methods, you're still trying, so it's not really giving up at all, its just inconsistency. You didn't give up, you were just inconsistent.

In someone else's words, where would you be right now if you had persisted?

There is no shame in struggling. Orpheus looked back because he loved her, not because there was something wrong with him. You're not wrong or lazy or stupid. I promise you can try again and you CAN do it.

It is with you. You have it. Assume that you have it and don't go back on that assumption for ANYTHING. Take a deep breath, soothe yourself, and tell yourself you have it.

The Shiftblr Anti-Terf Blocklist

After expanding the original post to be far longer than intended (courtesy of me forgetting a break), I received some assistance from the ever so wonderful @sheeezu whom took time out to dig around in the trash, a.k.a @/CuttingCherub's follower list. Every @ you see here is pro-TERF, and that is unacceptable in our community. This is a safe space for ALL, except those who wish harm upon people solely asking to exist in peace. You are not welcome here.

On a lighter note, I began donating $5 to trans charities for each terf comment/ask I saw, in the name of the account spreading the hate. So far, the terfs of Shiftblr have raised $60 USD for Trans Lifeline! 🤗 So! Either they get the picture and go back into hiding, or they continue to help trans people in the way that arguably matters most in this world. So please, don't be afraid to reach out if you've been getting harassed by these scumbags. I highly encourage you to share any accounts you have encountered in the replies. Now that there's a condensed list, without the showcase of SS taking up space, it'll be much more convenient to add onto.

Remember, trans friends: You are valid, you are valuable and you are loved. 💕

shifting is just picking what happens to you (or, read this if you're confused about shifting and a person who has shifted over ten times will explain it...hopefully).

it's just your mind moving into different experiential realities based on what you're aligned with at any given second.

you are already doing it. constantly. every time you make a decision, change your opinion, react to something differently, you are mentally stepping into a different version of your life.

you pick tea instead of coffee, you're now in the branch where you drank tea.

you believe you're bad at maths, you're now living the sequence where that belief colours your whole experience of maths.

you decide "i'm lucky" and actually internalise it, you start living out a reality structured by that assumption.

shifting is not special. it's literally just continuous relocation of consciousness through choice and belief, tiny or huge.

most people shift so microscopically they don't notice. they call it "change," "growth," "bad luck," "mood swings," but really it's just consciousness slipping sideways into another experiential stream where the variables are a little different.

big shifting, like waking up in another reality, is just doing that same thing but deliberately, with intent, with commitment.

instead of unconsciously slipping into a slightly different branch because you chose a different lunch, you are consciously saying:

"ok. now i experience myself in this completely different set of conditions."

and your brain, because it is literally a data-processing organ, not a fixed meat box, accepts it when you make it real enough to override old data. are you still with me !?!?!?

you shift every second based on decisions, reactions, beliefs.

most shifts are small, unnoticed, cumulative. "big" shifts are just conscious, deliberate relocations into drastically different experiential data. it's not magic. it's normal. it's mechanical. it's the default setting of existence.

every moment you're experiencing a version of your life.

it's not THEE life. it's A life, the one you're tuned into right now based on what you expect, believe, and focus on.

when you shift, you're just moving into a different version of your life experience.

not a new world. not a portal. not a dream.

just a different set of experiences your mind is capable of locking onto, like changing playlists.

you do it already, every time you change your mind, act differently, even notice something new.

you're not jumping through dimensions like a marvel movie, you're just moving your awareness into a slightly or hugely different path that was always accessible.

small shifts = when you start liking sushi after hating it.

big shifts = when you wake up and the whole setup feels different because you deliberately chose a new pattern to lock into.

your experiences are flexible. your mind moves through them automatically. deliberate shifting is just taking the wheel.

now, for "big" shifts.

getting into the big shifts, or living in a completely different setup, starts with the same process as the small ones: some sort of belief and assumption.

if you're shifting into a different experience, whether that's hogwarts, a marvel universe, or a whole new version of your life, it's because you choose to believe that it's possible. just like you decide you're lucky or bad at maths, you decide you're already living in that new life.

it's not about waiting for something to "happen" or needing a cosmic shift. it's simply deciding that this new life is what you are now aligning with.

the key to big shifts is assumption.

you've been shifting already, but the experience you're living in right now is the one your mind is locked into. to get to something drastically different, you just need to fully assume that it's yours. it's like deciding what you're going to eat for lunch. one day it's pasta, the next it's sushi.

it doesn't need to be a complicated, mystical process. you just shift your awareness by choosing the assumption that the new setup is already happening for you.

why it's possible to wake up in a different world or timeline: your brain doesn't care if you're imagining or physically experiencing something, it will treat both as equally real.

once you decide that this new life is your life, your brain accepts it. you're not "leaving" one world and going to another, you're simply locking into a different path that was always available.

everything already exists. it's just a matter of tuning your mind to it.

once you assume it's possible, it's like pressing play on a movie. you commit to the experience, and your brain accepts it because it's designed to process whatever you focus on as reality.

the difference between a small shift and a big one is the depth of your focus and how much you align with that new assumption. the more you assume you're in this new reality, the more real it feels.

how to get there

stop looking at the shift as something you need to "arrive" at or wait for. it's happening now.

you don't need to fight your current experience; you just need to choose to experience the new one. you get there by focusing on the new belief, like a switch, but it's not a sudden jolt. it's a steady, quiet shift of awareness that says: this is my life now.

and the result: your mind doesn't draw boundaries between worlds. once you decide to step into a different version of your life, all that's required is the commitment to live inside it.

the reason it works with fantasy worlds, with totally different setups, is that your mind knows no limits. if you can think it and fully believe it's yours, it is yours. shifting is just you consciously moving into another path you've decided to live out.

why don't i see it? (aka why is my world not changing)

(i will copy and paste something i said previously, but it is 100% applicable here)

our brain files things under "real" and "not real" as if it's got an actual authority on the matter. but. it doesn't have any proof.

your brain doesn't have eyes. now i know you'll say that you do.

but what do your eyes actually do? they see things. cool. but . your eyes don't see truth. they see whatever your brain tells them is real.

example: ever woken up from a dream and for a few seconds, you still thought it was real? fully convinced? because your brain believed it, so your eyes went along with it. your heart raced, your hands shook, maybe you even felt pain. all from something that wasn't real.

or ever had deja vu? where you swear something has happened before, but you know it hasn’t? again. your brain is filling in gaps. deciding what's real for you.

so when you say, i know i'm in my cr because i can see it, what you’re really saying is, i know i'm in my cr because my brain is telling me i am.

but your brain is just following a script. one it's been running since birth. what happens when you stop following it? when you stop taking its word for it?

when you ask what if i already shifted? your brain freezes. because it doesn't actually know. it just assumes. and when it starts to doubt itself, that's when you slip through.

how do you break out of it: stop trying to make reality change. assume it already has. sit in the knowing that you are already where you want to be. no proving, no waiting, no searching. just accepting. reality bends to what you accept as fact.

the only thing keeping you in your cr is that you keep assuming it's real.

why some people shift easily and some don't:

it's not because some people are chosen or have magic brains. it's not because they "tried harder" or found a secret method. it's because some people assume they've already done it, and some keep looking around for proof.

when you're still checking, doubting, testing, your mind is holding onto the idea that you're not there yet.

even if you're doing all the techniques right, if the feeling underneath. it is "i'm trying to shift" instead of "i already have," you're holding the experience of waiting, not having.

people who wake up in their drs didn't stay stuck in the "trying" mindset.

it's not about how badly you want it. it's about whether you accept it without needing anything outside of you to confirm it.

your brain doesn't need to see it first. it needs to believe it first. seeing follows.

to the people who haven't shifted: you're not that wrong, broken, or bad at it. it's just that you're mind is still split, half believing, half checking. half stepping into it, half pulling back. and that's human. that's normal. but the second you stop needing to "see it to believe it" and start trusting the inner knowing, you'll slip through.

do you need to persist in your assumption?

technically, no.

but practically???? sometimes, yes.

here's why: shifting isn't about how hard you push. it's about what you accept as true. if you could snap into a full-body, no-doubt belief that you already shifted, right now, you wouldn't need persistence at all. you'd be done. locked in. experiencing it.

but, because most people have years of habits, doubts, conditioning, it's not always instant. the mind wants to fall back into what feels familiar.

not because it's evil. not because it's trying to sabotage you. just because that's how the brain saves energy: it runs the old script unless you feed it a new one enough times to override it.

nothing can stop you from shifting.

not your doubts. not your overthinking. not your past. not your fears. not your age. not how long you've "failed." not your mental health. not the fact that you woke up in your same bed today. not how "stuck" you feel. not your logic. not your friends, your parents, your teachers, your surroundings. not your subconscious. not the clock. not the calendar. not "missing the void." not "doing it wrong."

nothing.

because shifting isn't something you earn. it's not a reward you unlock after completing a list of tasks or becoming a better, calmer, smarter version of yourself. it's not a door guarded.

shifting is just moving your awareness to a different experience. you are the only authority. your assumption is the key, the lock, the door, the floorboards.

even your resistance can't stop it, because the second you decide, even if a part of you is screaming “this is stupid,” your mind begins tilting toward the new path.

moment by moment.

shift by shift.

breath by breath.

the only thing that delays it is believing that something can delay it.

but if you drop that???? if you stop believing anything outside of you has the power???? you move. immediately. automatically. effortlessly.

you cannot be denied access to something that was never closed. you cannot be blocked from a process that is natural to you. you cannot fail at something that is built into the way you already exist.

you shift because you decide to. that's it. that's all.

if you feel like quitting shifting, read upon this: post about quitting<3

and that's really it.

shifting isn't some cosmic lottery. it's not about waiting for a sign or chasing a feeling. it's not about methods or hours or perfect conditions.

it's just a choice. and then you live like it's true, even if everything around you still smells like your old life for a minute.

you don't owe the old version of your life anything. you don't need to explain yourself to your senses. you don't need to argue with your thoughts. you just decide and you stay decided. even when it's boring. even when it's slow. even when your brain wants to reroute you back into doubt.

the shift doesn't happen because you begged for it. the shift happens because you stopped needing permission to believe you already had it.

no chasing. no proving. no waiting. just deciding.

　　　how to banish resistance effectively , resistance is not some grand cosmic force, sadly, it’s a habit. so stop. here’s how.

you are not your thoughts. they are not a mirror, not a diagnosis, not proof of failure. they’re just noise. when your brain spits out, 'this isn’t working,' don’t argue, don’t spiral, don’t even take it seriously. let it sit there. watch it fade. because it will. so stop identifying with intrusive thoughts. 

resistance only survives if you start negotiating with it. the second you start dissecting a doubt, you’re trapped in its logic. don’t play along. when you get a thought like 'what if this isn’t working?,' just let it sit there unanswered, like an awkward question in a conversation you’ve already checked out of. give it nothing to work with.

resistance is only as powerful as the attention you give it. redirect your thoughts. immediately. to anything. every time doubt creeps in, think of something else. return to your assumption, your end goal, your desired reality. do it without hesitation. "but what if. ." no. "but i don’t feel. . .," don’t let resistance become the main thing. replace it, move on.

people act like doubt means something. it doesn’t. it’s just a feeling. a chemical reaction in your brain that passes, like hunger, like tiredness, like any other mood. let it exist without letting it define anything. don’t resist it, don’t analyse it. just let it float by like a passing car outside your window. not your car, not your problem. make peace with discomfort. 

assume your power. resistance is a relic of a mindset that no longer serves you. you don’t have to fight it, you don’t have to fix it. you just have to stop believing in it. act like someone who already has what they want, and let resistance dissolve into irrelevance. it was never real to begin with.

stop treating resistance like an enemy to be defeated. it’s not a force, it’s a habit. and habits break the moment you stop giving them power.

in my head we’re all friends 😭

"waow i really wanna be this persons friend.." continues to not talk to them but likes every single one of their tumblr posts i come along

Desire is a memory.

You're never desperate for anything, desperation is fulfillment in disguise. You know how good it'd feel to have it because you do. You're mistaking having for wanting. You have it in the 4D.

You want your desired life or reality because you've been there. You want to be beautiful because deep down thats what you know you are.

Desire is a memory. You want it because you have it. Trust the 4D.

Ive been affirming all day for few days, when I fall asleep im so confident and happy that I will wake up in my WR but i still didnt? Whats going on :(((

confidence and assurance go hand in hand, and at times people forget the second

confidence is when you build up the momentum and motivation, when you start believing in yourself and your dreams and how simply you can turn imagination into reality

assurance is the innate knowing, the unwavering faith, the strong willed persistence in the face of a 3d that looks like it’s not changing

i promise you darling, it is changing, it changes constantly, fluidly — it’s a stream that flows without obstruction and continues its path to the vast ocean that is the multiverse

i’m so proud of you for having your confidence, for feeling that joy and happiness that you will wake up in your wr — i’m right there with you, i go to sleep every night with the anticipatory feeling of waking up to a reality that is pure relaxation

so just take my hand and turn away from what your eyes show you. don’t pay it any mind. you may see your cr, you may see an old life when you open your eyes. but what i want you to do is take a deep breath, look inwards, your inner eye, your inner self, the true reality, and just know that you’re there. right now.

shrug off shit that doesn’t align with what you want

having confidence is amazing, but pls pls pls also have assurance.

disclaimer!! it is okay to feel discouraged, i actually encourage experiencing that feeling to its fullest, pull yourself through it, bcs it is better to feel it all and come out of it as a rejuvenated, lighter self.. than bottling it and letting it fester as doubts

me scripting that orgasms are even better in my other realities

if you've ever interacted with any of my posts theres a 99% chance I've stalked your account

How do you get over the fear of never shifting

how to get over the fear of never shifting?

right, so you’re afraid you’ll never shift. you’re staring down the barrel of an eternal non-event, the metaphysical equivalent of a dinner party where the host never shows and you’re left nursing a warm gin and wondering why you ever put on shoes. the fear, then, is not just about shifting. it’s about stagnation, about the existential itch that nothing will ever happen to you, that you are, in the grand scheme of things, a closed-loop system with no exit ramp. it’s about the dread of being one of those people who say they want to do things and then never do them, like men who buy poetry books and never turn past the preface.

let’s establish something !!! this isn’t a you problem. this is an everyone problem. but listen. listen. that doesn’t mean nothing is happening. the want itself is movement. the yearning is proof of life.

but fear can be embarrassing. the fear is what stops you from talking about it in public. the fear is what makes you try to force it, and forcing it never works. this is a truth universally acknowledged, like how the people who tell you to “just relax” are always the ones who never have to try at anything.

so, how do you get over it? you don’t. not in the way you’re thinking.

you don’t kill it, or banish it. what you do is you turn the volume down. you remind yourself that shifting is not a limited resource, it is not an exclusive club. you reframe it, because fear, at its core, is a trick of perspective. if you treat shifting like a test you’re doomed to fail, then congratulations, you have built yourself a failure machine. if you treat it like a game, like a book you can open and step into at will, then suddenly it becomes something else entirely, something less cruel, less elusive. something possible.

and listen, i could do the whole inspirational speech thing, the "trust the process," "it happens when you least expect it," "insert comforting platitude here. you can do it, you're always doing it, bla bla bla." but that’s not what you need. what you need is this: shifting is a skill. sort of. it’s not a mystery, not some divine lottery where the lucky few get golden tickets to willy wonka's chocolate factory and the rest of us are left behind in the cold. it’s a skill, which means it can be developed, honed, mastered. and if you can accept that, then suddenly, the fear loses its fangs. it becomes background noise, static on the radio. it becomes something you can live with, something you can drown out with the sheer audacity of your wanting.

so, the next time the fear comes knocking, let it in. let it sit at your table. but do not let it drive. do not let it make the rules. because the fear, when you really break it down, is just this: a refusal to believe in your own capacity for transformation. and if there’s one thing i know about you, it’s that you’ve never been one to stay the same.

me acting nonchalant infront of my s/o like i dont wanna jump him right then and there

me and woozi if anyone cares

we're not boyfriend and girlfriend, we're not husband and wife, those titles don't fit. we're soulmates, we're MORE than soulmates. we're made for each other. when you think of him, you think of me and viseversa.

I think my favourite piece of shifting advise I've gotten so far, was to stop being here.

Stop being in this reality just because that's what you see in the 3D. If you want to see the change, BE the change. Go COLD TURKEY on the current reality. Starve the current reality of your attention.

Anytime you see and react to something in this reality, just remind yourself "oh wait, I am already in my desired reality." REMEBER WHO YOU ARE in your desired reality and in that embodiment, REMIND YOURSELF you are in your desired reality.

Like "Oh wait, I almost forgot I'm literally in my dr" or "Oh yeah, I almost forgot I've already shifted" because you literally have. Anytime you think about your dr, take that chance to remember yourself as your drself and remind yourself "Ah yes I'm already in my dr" "I'm literally in my desired reality right now". Because what you are doing right, there is the entire shifting process.

You are shifting your awareness of your current reality to your desired one, remembering who you are in your dr (embodying your drself) and reminding yourself you are in your dr.

You have become the change, so therefore the 3D will show the change.

YOUR “CR” AND “DR” ARE THE SAME.

let me put it this way. yes, there are differences between your current reality and your desired one.

but, your current reality can also be your desired reality.

your current reality is the reality you are currently aware of, by the most basic definition. meaning, that when you make yourself aware of another reality, either similar to this one or different, it becomes your current reality.

from jumping parallels to parallels and from solaria to mewni, they are all the same. they are a reality with a different backdrop or font. no matter how magical it may be or out of this world in compared to this reality, it is still reality.

your desired reality becomes your current reality in the same way that any other reality at any given time can become your current reality.

your “CR” isn’t special. it shouldn’t be on a pedestal because it can change at any given moment. your “DR” also isn’t special, stop putting it on an unreachable pedestal where your brain thinks that at its core it’s any different than any other reality.

at the end of the day, they are all realities. every reality has its own set of rules, every reality is different. but, the one thing they all have in common is that they, in one way shape or form, are reality.

which on some level makes them all the same. stop thinking your desires are hard to reach. your current reality is the same as your desired one.

does it ever get better? has it gotten better? will it get better? when will it get better?

I'm so obsessed with him, his name, his face, his neck, his shoulders, his arms, his hands, his chest, his torso, his waist, his legs, his blood, his veins, his voice, his voice, the way he speaks, the LANGUAGES he speaks, his thoughts, his thought process, the way he carries himself, his passion for his hobbies and career, the way he smiles, I'm so awestruck.

so let’s talk severance. and shifting. and briefly about loa.

because. i'm confused. this is an open forum for anyone who has ever stared into the abyss and had the abyss stare back, except the abyss is a fluorescent-lit office cubicle and the abyss is also your bedroom, and you are in both places at once, except not really.

quick recap for the uninitiated: in severance, employees undergo a procedure that splits their consciousness in two. the ‘innie’ only exists at work, the ‘outie’ only exists outside of it. neither remembers the other’s life. a clean, surgical divide. a self cleaved in two like some corporate-cooked ouroboros. make sense? no? yes? congratulations, you are alive.

now. shifting. shifting isn’t exactly that. but. isn’t it a little bit that? just a fraction? a sliver? because your dr self isn’t some blank-faced mannequin waiting for cr you to clock in and take over. they’re not a placeholder, not a consciousness-on-pause. they exist. fully. they are you in the same way you are you. and when you shift, you don’t overwrite them. you sync with them. it’s stepping into a river that was already rushing, already frothing, already carrying you forward before you even realized you were ankle-deep.

so no, your dr self doesn’t ‘know’ about shifting. until you shift. unless they were already aware of shifting. but let’s not go full inception just yet. because before that moment, they were just living, unbothered, thriving, possibly drinking a very good martini, possibly about to be hit by a cab. and now, here you are. a new awareness superimposed onto the old. which begs the question: if you can shift into them, could someone shift into you? could cr you be the outie in someone else's severance? is some other version of you sliding into place, right now, reading this, wearing your socks, stealing your morning?

let’s get messier. let's talk homework. let’s talk clones. let’s talk about whether or not i would even know if i had shifted. because. okay. say cr me is the innie. and the shifting me.....the one actively intending, scripting, affirming....is the outie. would my innie know the outie had shifted? would i know? or am i a paper doll, neatly folded into a reality i had no hand in choosing, while some other me slides into the cockpit?

because let’s discuss. people talk about clones. about leaving something behind to keep up appearances. but are they aware? do they feel it? do they have the creeping suspicion that reality is off by a fraction of a millimeter? do they ever get that thing where they walk into a room and forget why they’re there, except it’s their entire life? if shifting is severance, who's the innie and who's the outie? is cr you the outie, with full agency, only vaguely aware of the other? or is cr you the innie, there in a single slice of reality, while your dr self gets the full panoramic view? maybe it’s neither. maybe the whole premise collapses because, unlike severance, the connection is never actually severed. i think that this can be applied to manifestation too. because. if you manifest, say, a different face.....is the you with the old face aware that it worked???

maybe you are both. maybe it depends on where you stand. maybe it depends on where you shift. maybe none of us know what we’re talking about and reality is a mobius strip we’re all just scrambling across in different directions, trying to make it make sense.

anyway. thoughts? feelings? a growing sense of dread?

ooohh..!

so here’s why i personally didn't like *and* left shifttok. the thing is. it’s not that it’s inherently bad, it’s just… sort of missing the point. like, wasn’t the whole goal to shift? to get out, to go somewhere else, to slip through the cracks of reality like a goddamn pro? but somewhere along the way, it turned into a glorified pinterest board. edits on edits on edits. wattpad drabbles disguised as scripts. playlists that are less about actually shifting and more about curating an aesthetic, a moodboard, a vibe. and suddenly, you’re not shifting, you’re just making content about shifting.

like, i get it. romanticising your dr is half the fun. i did and still do it myself !! who doesn’t want to bask in the idea of their perfect world? but when that becomes the main event, when it overtakes the actual act of shifting, what are we even doing here? it’s like planning a trip, making all the itineraries, buying cute outfits, but then never getting on the plane. just sitting in your room, looking at your suitcase, rewatching your own tiktoks about how fun the trip is gonna be. that’s what shifttok became. this endless loop of people hyping up their drs but not actually going to them.

and maybe that’s the problem. because if you spend too much time making your dr look good instead of actually experiencing it, you start treating it like fiction. like something separate from you, instead of something you’re literally living. people started making edits of their drs like they were making fandom edits of a tv show. like, is this a real place you’re shifting to or is it just your latest hyperfixation? be honest. you spend so much time cooped up on video star or capcut and suddenly you don't remember the last time you affirmed or even thought about shifting.

and i’m not saying you can’t have fun with it. obviously, dream up the most insane, gorgeous, cinematic dr possible. but at some point, you have to ask yourself: am i actually trying to shift? or am i just roleplaying the idea of shifting? because shifttok is great at making shifting look cool. but the second you start seeing your dr as something to be consumed rather than something to be lived, you’ve already lost the plot.

so yeah. i left, and as soon as i did, i started actually shifting. because i actually wanted to do it. not just make a trailer for a movie i’m never gonna watch. does this make sense?????

let me show y’all how I manifest right quick…

me: “i’ve already shifted tonight.”

subcon: “ooh yippee how fun!”

…

that’s it.

it’s truly that simple.
