Vote for the next subliminal

“Normal” should never be the benchmark. Normal = Ordinary = Mediocre. I prefer “exceptional” as a benchmark.

Criticizing without having a vision of one’s own is worse than any suggestion that could be made. At least making a suggestion shows one is trying to formulate a direction and purpose.

To me normal means not having unrealistic expectations. But that too is up for interpretation

Who defines what “realistic” is?

It’s usually those that want to bring others down to their level.

Fuck that. Nobody sets my limits except me (which is bad enough). And I’d rather take a risk on what might be, and be wrong, than accept what others tell me should be, and be right.

@bujin That’s why I said its up for interpretation. It’s your life

I guess maybe I think part of the problem for people is being realistic in a way that is pretty limited and limiting and maybe so limiting it walls off things that are actually very possible. Subliminals maybe can open up an ability to see where we might be exceptional, even in fairly small ways.

For me, and this may be a block, the path has been relatively slow going, but sometimes I surprise myself by being more at ease, or better able to do something or just more free flowing in my life.

I know people who are functional in their lives, but I am pretty sure they can’t see any possibility for changing anything, let alone the self awareness to desire it and move toward it. To me just seeing the possibility for, and making the effort to create change, is one of those small exceptionalities.

It’s not an interpretation, it’s a limitation.

Why not aim for the unrealistic, or even the fantastic, just to see how far you can actually go?

Is it really that bad to be wrong and to fail? Is it actually better to be safe and accepted by the mediocre masses instead?

I’m thinking that loop of StarkT this morning is influencing my perspective on things. :slight_smile:

That, I’d say, depends greatly on the context (like everything else, I guess). (You probably would not, for example, choose a surgeon who had this as his guiding work philosophy. Then again, I might be wrong about that.)

Devil’s in the details, as they say.

But I appreciate and am inspired by the spirit of your questions.

Well…

Here’s my two cents: I think a lot of people focus on changing their visual aspects - jaw line, cheeks, etc.

Why just not get to low body fat that naturally accentuates your facial features, then on the other side work on self-love and self-acceptance.

Much healthier approach in my opinion.

Somebody came up with the idea of an organ transplant. It certainly wasn’t Dr Ordinary. :slight_smile:

Any great advance requires someone to look beyond the recognized limits. Obviously not everything is an advancement, and even those are built on what’s accepted, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have a guiding vision of extraordinary achievement.

So (to make this post on-topic), I’m all for subliminals that really push the boundaries, even if “normal” people disapprove or disbelieve.

No, I believe it was Dr. Frankenstein.

kidding. kidding.

now, i am completely joking.

seriously though, innovation, risk-taking, and shooting for the beyond are very important. Even being unrealistic is actually super-important.

People are working around the world right now to innovate creative responses to a huge number of problems and issues. I appreciate them dearly and would be proud to be one of them.

@friday someone did request a subliminal a while back that could physically change your face to look like a celebrity. However Fire and Saint stressed at the time that is not the way SC want to go.

@TheBoxingScientist While I would love to have a face symmetry, jawline (mewing), hollow cheeks subliminal, that’s not what I requested with the Johnny Depp module in particular. For me, he is one of the most charismatic people out there (the way he talks, how he tells his stories, his tonality, pauses he uses, humor) and I would love to have a charisma module using Deep Trance Identification of him.

And this quote is from 2018, unbelievable how much subclub is ahead of the game.

I think a lot of things changed with Q and Terminus power, as physical changes now seem to be possible.

Remember this as the day you almost caught Captain Dark Philosopher.

I have the perfect title. We’ve had As Above & So Below. Now let’s have As Within & So Without. :slight_smile:

It’s actually a Wiccan thing/saying, I believe. As Above, So Below, As Within, So Without.

@friday I guess you are more up to date with the new bells and whistles in subliminal technology. I am going by what I heard last year :wink:

Well, blackadder is the Chief Executive Creative Writer of the Future Developments Brainstorming department. Has his own office and everything. You never know what may yet manifest if you make him believe… :wink:

I think they’re still experimenting with physical changes. Even then, I doubt it’s wise to go into such specifics as looking like somebody. But things like facial symmetry are not inconceivable.

Same thing for character traits. It is more likely that a sub would be more generic, allowing you to “pick” the traits that you want from multiple people, much like how Bruce Lee took things from multiple martial arts to design JKD.

Instead of creating a “Be more like Johnny Depp” sub (which might even get them sued), they (we?) would create a “Be Your Alter Ego” sub, where you get to design your ideal person through mixing and matching (a supercharger-type thing?) which is then targeted by the subliminal as your goal.
