i don’t call this reality the “current reality” . its my pain-in-the-ass reality. my boring reality. my ‘wow! everything sucks ASS’ reality. would 100% recommend not calling this reality your ‘cr’. it helps with not giving this reality so much power yourself!!!! because it is as real and mundane as any other reality you wish to perceive!!! so name it like you name your desired realities your ‘marauders’ dr or ‘90s fame dr’, maybe it may help with a change of perspective. idk. i am no expert . just works for me 😌

yeah ted talk over BYE (did this make sense???????? i am sorry if it doesn’t haha)

the way i'm going to be clinging onto tom for HOURS when i shift to my hogwarts dr ....... we'll be on that long ass train ride to hogwarts anyway . NO WAY he is getting rid of me in those hours lmfao

you're always so real

a quick scroll through twitter never fails to remind me of why i’m a permashifter

and FUCK the ib exams i am shifting tonight and never coming back!!!!!!! oh the joy!!!!!!! the relief!!!!!!! i will be feasting on grapes and nutella pancakes and pasta in my waiting room come next morning ……. so excited .

reasons to shift to pjo: surrounded by crazy hot people. one of their parents is a greek deity. you KNOW they’re gonna look GOOOOOOD . my eyes will be feasting. yum. ????? idk what possessed me to type this but i’m posting idc

i would say i can’t believe i’m shifting to go to school but that would be a lie. i’ve always liked school. i like learning. i like academic validation. so yes. i am shifting to harry potter for the school, a little bit. yeah, i am probably a teachers pet. yeah, it probably pisses off tom so damn much that the professors like me more than him (if only he was less.. creepy idk sjdjskdj). yeah…… like!???!!?!?!? ITS MAGIC. ITS A MAGIC SCHOOL. we learn spells and shit. make POTIONS. learn magic world history. ITS MAGIC idk HOW someone could say that harry potter is a boring place to shift to when it has so much potential??????????? anyway rant over bye

hi. hope ur good. everytime i see something tom riddle related i think of you 😣

hi.!!!!! hello. you’ve made my day with this 💓💓😭 hope you’re good as well! i’m honored honestly. can’t believe my obsession with the guy is a part of my digital footprint now ..

how can we stop expecting to wake up in cr after shifting attempt?

　how to stop expecting to wake up in your cr ,

well . . . you never 'wake up' in your desired reality. you don't arrive. there is no terminal gate, no sudden cut to black followed by credits rolling on a new world. if you're waiting for the crash, you've misunderstood the flight. but that's semantics. anyways.

shifting isn't an event. it's not a rupture, it's not a lottery win, it's not a punishment or miracle. it's continuity. like breathing, like blinking. what happens when you shift is not that you go somewhere else. it's that you stop arguing with where you are. and by the time you notice, the scenery's already changed.

so you don't wake up in your cr because your cr isn't a separate bedroom you break into once you've behaved enough. your cr is the bed you've always been in. your cr is now. it's here. it's this. but you're still trying to see it through the peephole of your old logic. through scarcity and suspense and the habit of believing everything real has to hurt.

the expectation to 'wake up' comes from the same place as superstition. it's a theatre of reward. you're still expecting it to feel deserved. to arrive with trumpets. to be marked by something. you're still trying to prove something to the doorman in your mind who thinks heaven has a guest list.

but your reality doesn't need fanfare. it doesn't need to knock. it's not late. it's not reluctant. it's not waiting on you to be more visual, more perfect, more devotional. you are not an unpaid intern at the church of quantum theory. you're not performing piety for a state change. you're not a myth. you're a chooser.

so . . . stop expecting to wake up. instead, assume you already did. yesterday. last week. two months ago. during lunch. when you put your phone down. when you said 'this is done.' the moment passed already. you missed it because you were squinting for a sign.

anywho. reality doesn't tap you on the shoulder. it really just expects to reflect something you've given. either the belief that you're here or you're there. your thoughts materialise.

Relationships in this reality are so not it, like wdym being nonchalant and casual about your relationship? there's no bound, like in my dr me and my man couldn't stay away from each other, the moment i shift again y'all aren't seeing any nonchalant act from me, like i'm gonna remember every little detail, every date, everything.

i have too many drs i want to shift to.

i want to make a pjo dr but like. change almost everything. add different quests. i will be a daughter of dionysus but less wine aunt vibes more unhinged god of insanity vibes . do i make myself fall into tartarus ? idk depends on how i’m feeling (i won’t do that. i think. i don’t hate myself THAT much)

i am eternally in my percy jackson era. Just like i’m in my harry potter era all the time. i read them at just the right age and now they are cemented in my mind. i make dam jokes and make fun of jason grace ALWAYSSSS

anyways i don’t know what this rant was for. i want to be percy jacksons scary girlfriend. that’s all. bye

the way my dr s/o’s are all weirdly similar to one another . like. they’re all tom riddle. some are a bit calmer . just a bit. i like them unhinged and challenging and annoying and annoyingly charismatic idk . they’re composed with everyone but me. yeah. its nice to notice this stuff. same person different faces lol

i shift because i need to be KISSED ……………….. loosing my mind . formula one race so boring i am daydreaming about my man in a whole other reality 🙂‍↕️

btw he pulls me on his lap and reads along with me when he’s bored. btw he tickles me on mornings when i don’t want to leave his bed. btw he thinks he’s sooooo smooth and suave but i’ve literally caught him staring at me like he has tunnel vision thousands of times. btw he slips me notes in class after vehemently refusing to sit next to me because i am “distracting”. btw he doesn’t just let me walk away from conversations and always pulls me back by my waistband. btw he scratches my back until i fall asleep. btw he has lovingly caressed a picture of me he keeps so many times it has worn down (he periodically magics it to restore it) . yeah. i miss him 😭🙂‍↕️😌🥲🥲🥲😭💀

💓💗💓💗💓💗💓💓💓💓💗💓💗💓💗 my maaaaaaaaaaannnnnn

is making a 2014 dr where you are tumblr famous a recession indicator

i unfortunately will never come back from a shift to tell you guys about it . like once i’m out i’m OUT. getting tf out of here permanently because this reality really isn’t worth it like…………………. i’d much rather being actually FREE and SAFE. i’d much rather be valued as a person and live in a world where the concept of being a man/woman doesn’t exist. i’d much rather live in a world where governments don’t dictate. i’d much rather live in a world where people can do whatever tf they want whenever and wherever they want. yeah that’s all.

ooohhhh the URGE to make a co-ed kpop group and make yoongi my s/o………… i’m reverting to my old ways guys . the armyblink in me is returning.

my scripts have gone from strictly organized to messy and not-gramatically-correct purple prose rants . i've abandoned all sorts of organization and sanity. and i prefer it that way

jealous of the version of me currently sleeping on his bare chest .

couldn’t find a good dune pinterest board so i started making one myself . but if anyone can send me a link to literally ANY dune pin boards .. it would be really really nice of you , just saying 🙂‍↕️

i play the harp and tom plays the violin by the way . just remembered this little bit . Hahahhahahahsjshxkehdkexiowjdowkx IMISSHIM

some antishifter anon is trying to tell me where to shift now?? mind your own business, honestly . “pick a more interesting place than harry potter” ?????????????? tf?????????

"proving" shifting through scientific evidence (& philosophic theory)

this post is heavily inspired by @voldyateme on tiktok. i saw her video and decided to do research on my own, and write a detailed post about this topic to make myself understand better. i also would like to mention that some of the claims irene made in her tiktok were wrong (and biased) i also wanted to clear some things up for myself.

fyi: long post ahead. this took me three days to understand and write. i might still be a bit unclear on my understanding of some aspects, but to avoid having to write a whole novel on the subject, i simplified my findings and shortened them by a lot.

john clauser is a physicist who won the nobel peace prize in 2022 for his work on quantum entanglement. his theory confirms that quantum particles can be entangled across vast distances, and that their behaviors are instantly connected, even if they're light years apart.

a very simplified example:

i: you create two entangled particles

ii: you send particle A to tokyo, and particle B to paris

iii: a person in tokyo measures particle A and sees it spinning up, then instantly, meaning instantly, faster than light, the person in paris will know particle B is spinning down

this is simply based on particle A or B's observation, w/o there having to be sent any message or signal between them. they behave as if they're one system - not two separate ones.

the moment you measure one particle, you're instantly aware of the other particle's state.

⭒ relating quantum entanglement to shifting:

okay so now we know that entangled particles act as of they're one system, even through long distances. so, if everything was once connected to the big bang, then on some level, everything may still be entangled. meaning you, your consciousness and other "versions" of yourself in other realities.

this could therefore suggest that we are already connected to all possible versions of ourselves. they exist within a quantum field of potential, and our awareness can shift between these versions by tuning into the version we desire - essentially by choosing a different frequency.

say you're listening to the radio. you know that you’re able to listen to any radio broadcast because there are thousands playing at the same exact time, but you choose which one to listen to, knowing you have the choice to change it to another.

it's the same exact with shifting. you know that there are endless versions of you in existence right this moment - you only have to choose to become aware of your desired self.

john wheeler, another physicist, proved that reality is directly linked to our consciousness and what we observe. it's been demonstrated that particles don't move until they're actually observed. so if we're not observing something, it doesn't have a definite state at all. this is called the "observer effect"

the effect has challenged and in some ways helped disprove einstein's theory of realism. einstein believed that that the physical world exists independently of whether we observe it or not.

example: according to einstein, if a tree falls in a forest and no one is there to observe it, the tree still falls. this is shown to be false on a quantum level. that said, we can't w/ certainty say that the tree does (or doesn’t) exist if no one is perceiving it (confusing, trust me, i know)

wheeler also proved that particles will change their makeup based on our choices and observation. simplified, this means that reality doesn't fully decide its state until it's observed. it can have different outcomes, and our choices affect the past behavior of particles.

⭒ relating the observer effect to shifting:

we know that quantum particles don't take on a definite form or "reality" until they're observed. this implies that our observation plays a direct role in shaping reality - not just by watching, but also deciding. this implies that reality isn't fixed, but fluid, shaped by our decisions, thoughts and observations and means we can "choose" our reality.

quantum physics shows that reality isn't fixed until observed, observation and consciousness do play a key role and that multiple outcomes are possible. so our consciousness focus can be said to be the mechanism that "shifts" us into a desired timeline or reality.

way before quantum physics existed, george berkley, a philosopher in the 1700s argued the idea "to be is to be perceived", which is eerily similar to what scientists are exploring today.

he believed that physical objects don't exist independently of our own perception. so if no one is for example perceiving a tree, then it doesn't exist.

berkeley said that there is no such thing as matter existing on its own w/o a mind to perceive it. BUT! there's a twist. you see, berkley also argued the existence of God being necessary to explain how the world works within his theory of perception and idealism.

okay so, to simplify because it can be really confusing:

i: physical things only exist if they're being perceived.

ii: when humans aren't perceiving things, God is.

iii: the reason why the world keeps existing even when we're not looking is because God is always "watching".

this raises the question: if we're not perceiving something, and the only reason it exists because God is, then how do we know it actually exists when we're not perceiving it?

berkeley responded:

"we know it exists because we can come back and perceive it again, and it behaves consistently"

if you look at a tree, walk away, come back. it's still there. berkeley argued that you assume the tree existed the whole time because when you go back, the tree would still be there, at the exact same spot.

this consistency would therefore be explained by God's continuous perception of it. so even though you didn't perceive it the whole time, the fact that reality is orderly and consistent is reliable "proof" that something (God) kept it there.

critics have argued back that assuming God is perceiving all the time isn't proof that He actually is, so how would we know that?

the answer is: w/o God, things would just pop in and out of existence every time we blink and that doesn't happen. so God is used to explain why the world is consistent and stable even when we're not watching.

you can't personally perceive something that you're not perceiving, but you trust that it's still there when you go back there, because of God.

berkeley's theory is still relevant today because the things he imagined in the 1700s do line up w/ scientific discoveries today and i resonate w/ his theory, so i just had to include it even though God’s existence isn’t proven. it’s fascinating, really.

⭒ relating george’s idealism to reality shifting:

if, like berkeley said, things only exist when they're being perceived, and if reality stays consistent because someone is always perceiving it, then that means perception isn't just passive, it's creative and shapes what exists.

this ties back to shifting beacuse it suggests that your desired reality doesn't need to "appear" in front of you for it to be real - it only needs to be perceived. if you consciously focus on your dr, perceiving it in your mind as real, then by berkeley's logic, it is real, maybe not in the physical sense just yet, but within the field of awareness that gives rise to reality in the first place.

so basically: if reality is perception based, and you're perceiving your dr, then you're giving form to something that exists because you're actively perceiving it, and you are capable of being in that place.

is it very audacious of me to shift to my hogwarts dr, where i will be an illegal time traveling historian and my boyfriend (husband) is tom riddle, without a script? yeah. am i still doing it? yeah.

i once said that i was a seer in my golden trio reality. scratch that. i am a metamorphmagus . i’m out here shifting (ha) my shape. its SUCH a cool ability like i need to see more hp shifters that script themselves as a metamorphmagus . Like hellooooo????? you can change your appearance at will ??????? WHAT . LITERALLY WHAT
