Kurtis, Marvel really needs to bring Alpha Flight to the big screen! They were allies of the X-Men and they were a Canadian superhero team! My favourite character was Northstar...and I think you’d make a perfect Northstar. The only disconnect would be that he was the first openly gay character in Marvel Comics...but he also never came across as effeminate to me, and I only say that ‘cause aside from his sexuality, he just came across as a dude who could fly, travel at super human speed, had super human strength, and could fire photon blasts from his hands...and since you’ve always been an ally of the LGBTQ community, i would love to see you play that character. 😁 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northstar_(character) Anyway, I still have the No. 1 Alpha Flight comic book from 1983 and it’s one of my prized possessions from my childhood.

That twitter girl who woke up from "8 months in Hogwarts" reminded me, there's a horror manga with a similar plot, I think it's by Junji Ito, where a guy was afraid to fall asleep, because whenever he does, his mind goes to a different world where time goes by faster and every time he sleeps, it goes by faster and faster, when he wakes up every morning, he thinks months (and later - years) have passed, but it's just been 1 night every night, he starts losing his sanity, because soon he's lived in the other world his whole life or longer only to wake up in the morning and realize just 1 night has passed. That twitter girl better watch out...
Yeah but in that story, the scary thing was that his body grew older along with his mind, causing him to look like a monster. That won't happen to twitter girl
as a person with ADHD who suffers from severe maladaptive daydreaming, this whole reality shifting sounds extremely similar to what happens to me dissasociating, but only when theyre asleep. I hate maladaptive daydreaming because of time loss and just not focusing on doing my chores/responsibilities. I'd not be doing this willingly..
@@katybcat8286 right it’s just lucid dreaming but they want to think they’ve discovered something new. Studies have already been done on this and it’s just a deep meditative state, not a new reality. I mean the fact that they think a reality with Harry Potter exists is proof enough none of it is real lol
in all seriousness, this obsession over draco malfoy is seriously concerning. like yes, tom felton is attractive but draco as a character was incredibly bigoted, toxic, and a massive bully. the romanticization of his character is so grody and disturbing!
Thank you! They said that he was “the boy with no choice” 💀no honey, he choose to be a bully and a massive arse. While his past EXPLAINED his actions, it does not EXCUSE his action
A healthier version of shifting is reading books, once you become an avid reader, you actually feel like you are one with the characters and when you finish the book, you have improved your vocabulary which is a plus!

@@cheese-wg7qw once u become an actual adult u will look back at this time of your life and laugh at yourself, trust me, shifting is not a thing, you just lack coping skills
LITERALLY!! i went through a shifting phase a couple of years ago and it was literally just me being incredibly mentally unstable and not having a healthy way to cope with it. i was so desperate to get away from where i was and that makes me sad
This sounds like encouraging dissociation, and it at times honestly seems like an addiction: not wanting to return to reality, using it as a consistent escape. Encouraging dissociation and maladaptive daydreaming can be dangerous, even lucid dreams can be dangerous. As someone who has struggled with PTSD and ADHD dissociation, please make yourself and others aware that this can be very harmful.
@@imnotkio That's because they're misinformed in what lucid dreaming is like. There's always been allot of misinformation about lucid dreaming, shifters sadly spread allot more misinformation
@@shadw4701 Lucid dreaming by itself is not at all dangerous, but the fact that they are convinced these alternate fictional realities are real and they can escape their current reality to avoid their problems yknow
@@shadw4701 lucid dreaming is as dangerous to a person with an addictive personality as alcohol is. When consumed in small controlled quantities and used responsibly it isn’t an issue. The problem comes in when addiction takes effect. The psyche is fragile and inexperienced teens shouldn’t be fucking with it period.
The shifting thing is just straight up lucid dreaming with a designated destination. Most of the most important methods used for "shifting" are similar to the methods used to induce a lucid state. It's possible to have a lucid dream that can continuously feel like it lasted for weeks, but eight months seems very unreal to me. It's just a dream!!! It's not real at all and it's dangerous to get attached to a dream you'll probably never be able to recreate. Nor will it ever replace reality.
Its not the same thing as lucid dreaming, even though it sounds similar. Lucid dreaming is dreaming but when realitt shifting you can actually eat sleep and everything like in this reality
the thing is, shifting involves moving your subconscious to other realities, based on the fact that infinite realities are occurring at the very moment. the world that we live in is only one of them. Countless of my acquaintances and friends have shifted (before it was popularized on tiktok) and decided to leave for good. Now, the people they left behind (clone is the proper term but it sounds silly i know) either don’t know a thing about shifting or they do and still talk about it in our locked Amino communities. Lucid dreaming is a very good method for shifting though, it’s the one I personally use. I’m not going to sit here to keep trying to change your mind, but pls look into it if you have time, it could change your life as it has for countless others :)
@@mikaeleugh546 no, it doesn’t involve moving your reality to infinite perceptible realities. It is not, nor has ever been backed up by physics, the perception of “infinite realities” is the many different positions of a single particle as left undetermined. Complex beings are not single particles, nor is there a way to quantify consciousness in terms of a particle or particles. Reality shifting is a sham. You should be ashamed. Your practice is ableist.
@@arsdago8121 exactly! shifters claim that a different version of themselves replaces them in this reality, but they don’t truly know! they could be blacking out and never truly know. actual scientists should do actual research
ok hi not so experienced shifter here but very experienced maladaptive daydreamer here, the sensations during both are very different, shifting being more similar to astral projection
@@deadmeme9031 there’s actually a lot of parallels to people who’ve started to shift, and people who then get the symptoms of maladaptive daydream disorder. Shifting is just lucid dreaming, and isn’t healthy.
i’m convinced that people who think they are “shifting” just don’t understand what an imagination is LMAO reminds me of that tweet from a long time ago where a girl went to the doctor because she “had a voice in her head” but it ended up just being her thoughts. people really just try so hard to be different.
for real these comments are so cringy, especially when they try to talk about infinitely realities like... that’s not that that theory means. Infinite realities don’t just mean that anything you come up with exists
@@adriannahowell2359 literally. like hogwarts is not real. it’s a made up place in THIS REALITY that would not exist in a different reality, unless it coexists with this one lol they just wanna seem edgy
@I exist oh kiddo! i definitely worded my comment wrong. i don’t think that looking for an escape from reality is pathetic or attention seeking at all! life sucks and everyone needs an escape. i more just meant that people labeling very mundane things as “shifting” to seem edgy is a little pretentious. but if thinking of escaping the world as “shifting” helps you, then i think that’s all that matters! i hope you can find your own escape from whatever’s going on, and if you ever need anything then i’m here :)
The amount of people saying that they felt called out by Kurtis with the shifting...y'all good? honestly, y'all good? Escapism can be a coping mechanism, yes, but not all coping mechanisms are good.
No, they aren’t good :0 they need therapy and other, safer copes. Honestly they should just write fanfiction and check their fantasies at the door to make sure they don’t get in the way of responsibilities
@@ragaya3043 It’s not bad, it’s either lucid dreams or maladaptive daydreaming. People who are convinced they’ve actually had sex with Draco need to ‘shift’ to outside and touch the grass.

A lot of “spirituality tiktok” and “witch tok” are people that have no idea what they’re talking about and they’re mostly spreading misinformation. My understanding of shifting has always been just changing your mindset to be more like positive I guess? I mean based on what I’ve learned from people not on tiktok, shifting realities is pretty much just shifting to a more positive mindset. Astral projecting is what they’re thinking shifting is and that’s still not completely what astral projection is. What they’re talking about sounds like a drug trip. But then again I’m dumb and also don’t know much about spirituality stuff in the general term but I’m somewhat educated in witchcraft and I know there’s tons of misinformation about THAT on tiktok.
Even then ethneogenic substances such as ayahuasca, peyote, salvia, psilocybin, and even more modern ones such as 2cb dont even cause delusions like this unless you are already prone to delusions. The visual "hallucinations" caused by then are typically going to be visual geometry. Usually in these drugs, non visual hallucinations are rare besides more powerful ones such as aya or salvia. And even then, its usually just a sort of pleasant ringing or alteration to tactile senses. The most significant effect is typically the profound mental state they put you in, coupled with the afterglow effects which in serotoninogenic psychedelics are shown to increase neuron production aswell as decrease activity in the part of the brain that percieves bias through the lens of yourself (way more complicated than dissociation, kinda hard to word but its a much more perceptual state of mind) hense why they have been used for centuries. Hell even deleriants wont usually cause that, deleriants usually (in my external understanding) cause very vague concepts to be percieved as real. Like, youll get hallucinations of people and things around you, but they are vague and undefined. So either way, i dont know a drug that will convince you youre doing the deed with some random wizard kid lmao
Shifting is so weird, but the thing that bothers me most are the people claiming that you're actually going to a parallel universe and not just lucid dreaming. I do believe in the idea that multiple universes probably exist, but I doubt that lying on your bed thinking about Draco Malfoy is gonna get you to another universe
@@carmen-ch3fq from what i understand, lucid dreaming and shifting is pretty much the same because you cannot shift realities and lucid dreaming is scientifically proven. I would love to hear your take and any info you have
I think this “shifting” shit is really bad for people. It keeps them from believing that fiction is completely separate from reality. They believe that they can go to these alternate universes and talk to nonexistent people.
@@user-sb7lt5wh9c Exactly! Fiction is a great way to cope, but once you start believing in things that aren't real, it ruins the whole point of fiction, and it can seriously harm your mental health.
Apparently you can script (basically write the rules of your dream reality) that you don't get attached to that reality bc you need to understand that these characters are fictional AND HOLY SHIT I JUST SAW YOUR PFP I REMEMBER THAT GAME Edit: they changed the pfp but it was one of those horses from that one horse prince dating sim game 😭😭
"shifting" is basically just forcing something into your mind to focus on while you fall asleep and it becomes your dream. Idk why people call it shifting realities (its really just dreaming), and you can do it for anything. So when the tiki's toke say "I woke up form 8 months at Hogwarts" it's just their dream. I've done it a few times successfully.
I was listening to this on my phone when I was in my bed and the phone fell and I was with my friend and I said “we dropped Kurtis” and we cant stop laughing
I get the appeal of it, I get wanting to be with your celebrity or fictional crush, but... I hope people don't _actually_ believe that they're entering a different universe and that it's real... It seems somewhat harmful and it seems like it could easily turn into an addiction or obsession.
Thats what so many people in thos comment section are talking about and I'm kind of concerned. Especially since I didnt really expect this from kurtis' fanbase.
right,!? I've seen an overwhelming amount of comments going on like this is an actual thing. maybe I'm too old to be watching this guy if his fan base is this young :/ it's worrying
it seems really appealing and shit, but I feel like it would just make reality so much worse in comparison, and I'm already hating my life. its especially worrying seeing the mental breakdowns when they come back :/
@@cait3847 which is why i am a little nervous when people say they use it as a coping mechanism for (insert severe mental illness) cause im like uhhh a lot of severe mental illnesses are more susceptible to periods of delusions, panic attacks, paranoia, hallucinations, psychosis, and longer attacks of derealization, especially if you are feeding the illness things that could trigger those
"its dudes who wear Victorian outfits but have like gadgets on them and theyre like "i drive a train~" like ok man you work at a best buy" is quite possibly the funniest thing i have heard just like, in general

I mean I’m a Greg (part of the fastest growing army in the world if you didn’t know don’t look it up) and I like the steampunk outfits in ACNH, so technically?
haha yeah shifting realities sounds dumb I totally haven’t been trying it for the past 4 months and definitely don’t have a 6 page script under my pillow.....
Isn't it just self-meditation? I've heard of basically the same thing online under that name. Tried it, never worked for me, gave up. I try to be happy in the here and now, because that is a guarantee, while shifting is not. If it works for any of you tho, plz let me know, I'll see if it's worth trying again
Listen, I'm not here to take away anyone's coping mechanisms. But I do think it's important to think about why you're trying to shift. And yeah, allow it to help you. If you are using it to cope, that's okay. Coping mechanisms exist to help in really hard times. But they can also become habits hardwired into your response systems, so be careful and make sure to think about it, okay?
@@theresamk6236 exactly. Even after just reading Harry Potter, or watching any fantasy/adventure movie, I get depressed because my life isn’t like that. I can’t imagine how much worse it is for these people
I heard shifting is actually just maladaptive daydreaming in most cases and it can actually be pretty harmful. I never regarded it as “shifting” but I do have my own problems with way too excessive daydreaming to escape the hardships of life and it can be really shitty once it becomes (basically) an addiction.
I’m a maladaptive daydreamer and I do it because of trauma. It’s an addiction and a coping mechanism and all of this trending “shifting” bs feels like a slap in the face.
@@Emma-mj3pz shifting is just like being transported to another reality! Like your really there, you can watch videos on scripting it’s just writing what you are like your name, who you are, etc
@@von8786 pls. Research maybe??? There are CIA documents about shifting to parallel realities. If you don’t believe it it bite your tongue and don’t discourage young shifters please.
I havea nice explanation if u need it lemmi just Shifting is a theory that can not be proven or disproven due to the observers paradox... Before tik tok shifting was something respected in more spiritual (not religious!) communities, most notorious for advocating about the multiverse was none other than Stephen Hawking... The theory goes for every choice we make for every second that ticks by comes a new reality... a reality where you pick red over blue and vice versa.. This theory goes that there are infinite realities so infinite possibilities of which is at your disposal.. Einstein has told us energy and matter are the same thing but different forms (E=mc2).... So shifting is taking your energy/current consciousness and shifting it into a new matter in a desired reality... Because consciousness is a product of the organization of energetic activity in the brain and so essentially we are tuning our minds to our desired frequencies on our radio that has infinite channels... What quantum physics has told us is that particles from different time periods can become entangled.... A physics experiment conducted using a beam splitter and the creation of photons has proven reality subjective.... Quantum experiment in space confirms that reality is what you make it’ in sciencemag.org the strange link between the human mind and quantum physics’ on bbc.com What Does Quantum Theory Actually Tell Us about Reality? --- scientificamerican.com The weirdest idea in quantum physics is catching on: There may be endless worlds with countless versions of you-- nbcnews.com Scientists Catch a Quantum Jump as It Happens---- discovermagazine.com A quantum experiment suggests there’s no such thing as objective reality-- technologyreview.com Entanglement Made Simple-- quantamagazine.org organisms might be quantum mechanics---- bbc.com A Physicist Explains Why Parallel Universes May Exist---- npr.org
I was genuinely taken aback by how many people ACTUALLY seem to believe this shifting thing in the comments... like... fr?? Like it’s just self-insert fanfic with extra steps😭😭 Edit: grammar lol
the idea behind shifting is kind of like moving your consciousness over to your body in that reality. shifting relies on the multi-verse theory being true. the idea that there are multi universes with multiple reality’s. so when you’re shifting your moving you consciousness to that body in that specific reality. scripting is just a way to make sure you’re going to a more specific reality where certain events or relationships happen. information on tiktok is definitely not reliable or always correct. especially because the idea of shifting became so popular on tiktok so fast. there are definitely people on tiktok who have lied about it, or who spread false information. with that being said there are good resources to learn more about shift. amino has a prominent shifting community with pretty accurate information (with much more detailed and way more explanation than what you would find on tiktok)
my thing is just that the other realities that may actually exist you don't know about. the harry potter "reality" doesn't exist because it's a book and the characters are played by actors who do actually exist here so idk
joy yes me too! i was hearing him list off what he was reading and was like “of course he wouldn’t believe it the things he’s reading are not true and sound stupid”💀 some people on tiktok just describe it in a way that sounds absolutely crazy and unbelievable but there’s some really cool information out there about it, it’s just not featured as much:/
@@blueharmonica3606 yeahh it is upsetting:( i've also heard people say that you disapper from your dr while you are in you cr, which is just not true xd and some of the povs that include shifting are ridiculous bc they have so much misinformation
Kalliana Marek so that’s kinda where the infinite/multi universe/reality part comes to play. if that theory is true it means there’s infinite reality’s, with infinite possibilities. so any reality you make up is a reality out there because there are infinite (if that makes sense). pretty much to put it shortly if you think it, it’s out there, because of the multi-universe theory. now with that being said, the characters could look like the actors, and they could not. that part depends on which reality in that universe you go to. so overall you have the harry potter universe that has magic. within that you have different realities. these realities may contain different people, people may look different etc. so you could potentially script that the people in your reality look like the actors who played them, or you could not. this is all because the multi-verse theory gives you infinite possibilities for everything. i hope that made sense! :)
i’m a maladaptive daydreamer and it’s totally different lmao daydreaming is through ur “minds eye” and you’re aware of it but shifting is totally different you can actually see through your eyes, not just your minds eye. admittedly, it’s a little like lucid dreaming but people stay in their other realities forever and idk if u can do that in a lucid dream lol
@@sadking1394 lucid dreaming is where you can control your dream, shifting realities is literally shifting your consciousness to a different reality. people get them mixed up all the time because of tiktok. tiktok is not reliable at all lmao
@@ghost.6294 awh shit! do you have any suggestions on better places to do research? amino has been the most reliable source so far (i usually double check my facts)
Im 3 fashionable years late to the party, but we were all wrong i just actually successfully shifted realities in a tangible meaningful way. all u have to do is assume a standing position, walk to your medicine cabinet, and take your antipsychotics. I did not know this before i was unmedicated, and i def never thought i was in a franchise, But I Am Being 100% Serious When I Tell You, IF YOUR REALITY IS BEING HONESTLY IMPACTED BY HOMESICKNESS FOR A FICTIONAL PLACE TO WHICH YOU YOURSELF CAN TRAVEL, OR OTHER EQUALLY STARTLING ANOMALIES, it genuinely could help to talk to a doctor. it can be so hard to tell when your experiences are abnormal or unhealthy if you dont have adequate support.
There's something kinda worrying about the person being so upset about being away from Hogwarts. Like it can't be healthy to be that engrossed and attached to a dream??
yep that’s why i’d be really scared to shift and get attached or lose interest in my actual life, it’s also like that with hallucinogenics like salvia n what not, you can’t fully predict what u see and the effects it’ll have on you
@@fisharson "shifting" honestly just seems like lucid dreaming. Hell, a lot of shifting methods are often used for lucid dreaming. I get having vivid dreams, I've had some of those myself, but passing dreams as real doesn't seem healthy.
@@creepykelstheres different levels of meditation you cant acheive something like that without knowing what youre doing, maybe if you actaully tried shifting youd understand
@@littleleah310 I'm 31 years old and I've spent 20 years perfecting meditation as a ptsd coping mechanism, I assure you, the brain is capable of truly incredible things if you let it focus enough. Doesn't mean that makes those imaginary worlds any less special or that their meaning disappears.
yes go ahead! tiktok doesn’t contain much accurate information though, your best bet is to go on Amino or even the comment section of shifting subliminals/shifting guided meditations. Bottom line, shifting doesn’t take any effort at all other than being aware you exist in the reality you intend to go to, and believing that you can do it (or believe you can do it even with doubts). Anyways, gl and you got this!
I do "reality shifting" all the time but that's because it's just meditation and your brain relaxes enough to lucid dream or enter an altered state of reality but it's not really a different one you're just ultra calm

This sounds like encouraging dissociation, and it at times honestly seems like an addiction: not wanting to return to reality, using it as a consistent escape.

Lucid dreaming isn't dangerous

@@shadw4701 Lucid dreaming by itself is not at all dangerous, but the fact that they are convinced these alternate fictional realities are real and they can escape their current reality to avoid their problems yknow
@@shadw4701 lucid dreaming is as dangerous to a person with an addictive personality as alcohol is. When consumed in small controlled quantities and used responsibly it isn’t an issue. The problem comes in when addiction takes effect. The psyche is fragile and inexperienced teens shouldn’t be fucking with it period.
The shifting thing is just straight up lucid dreaming with a designated destination. Most of the most important methods used for "shifting" are similar to the methods used to induce a lucid state. It's possible to have a lucid dream that can continuously feel like it lasted for weeks, but eight months seems very unreal to me. It's just a dream!!! It's not real at all and it's dangerous to get attached to a dream you'll probably never be able to recreate. Nor will it ever replace reality.
Its not the same thing as lucid dreaming, even though it sounds similar. Lucid dreaming is dreaming but when realitt shifting you can actually eat sleep and everything like in this reality
the thing is, shifting involves moving your subconscious to other realities, based on the fact that infinite realities are occurring at the very moment. the world that we live in is only one of them. Countless of my acquaintances and friends have shifted (before it was popularized on tiktok) and decided to leave for good. Now, the people they left behind (clone is the proper term but it sounds silly i know) either don’t know a thing about shifting or they do and still talk about it in our locked Amino communities. Lucid dreaming is a very good method for shifting though, it’s the one I personally use. I’m not going to sit here to keep trying to change your mind, but pls look into it if you have time, it could change your life as it has for countless others :)
@@hiitsme4173 but it is lucid dreaming and a brain scan could prove that.

A lot of “spirituality tiktok” and “witch tok” are people that have no idea what they’re talking about and they’re mostly spreading misinformation. My understanding of shifting has always been just changing your mindset to be more like positive I guess? I mean based on what I’ve learned from people not on tiktok, shifting realities is pretty much just shifting to a more positive mindset. Astral projecting is what they’re thinking shifting is and that’s still not completely what astral projection is. What they’re talking about sounds like a drug trip.
But then again I’m dumb and also don’t know much about spirituality stuff in the general term but I’m somewhat educated in witchcraft and I know there’s tons of misinformation about THAT on tiktok.
that and people claiming to be backed by "science" while never citing sources or citing sources that are extremely unreliable
Even then ethneogenic substances such as ayahuasca, peyote, salvia, psilocybin, and even more modern ones such as 2cb dont even cause delusions like this unless you are already prone to delusions. The visual "hallucinations" caused by then are typically going to be visual geometry. Usually in these drugs, non visual hallucinations are rare besides more powerful ones such as aya or salvia. And even then, its usually just a sort of pleasant ringing or alteration to tactile senses. The most significant effect is typically the profound mental state they put you in, coupled with the afterglow effects which in serotoninogenic psychedelics are shown to increase neuron production aswell as decrease activity in the part of the brain that percieves bias through the lens of yourself (way more complicated than dissociation, kinda hard to word but its a much more perceptual state of mind) hense why they have been used for centuries. Hell even deleriants wont usually cause that, deleriants usually (in my external understanding) cause very vague concepts to be percieved as real. Like, youll get hallucinations of people and things around you, but they are vague and undefined. So either way, i dont know a drug that will convince you youre doing the deed with some random wizard kid lmao
Shifting is so weird, but the thing that bothers me most are the people claiming that you're actually going to a parallel universe and not just lucid dreaming.

I think this “shifting” shit is really bad for people. It keeps them from believing that fiction is completely separate from reality. They believe that they can go to these alternate universes and talk to nonexistent people.

"shifting" is basically just forcing something into your mind to focus on while you fall asleep and it becomes your dream.

Shifting is a theory that can not be proven or disproven due to the observers paradox...
Before tik tok shifting was something respected in more spiritual (not religious!) communities, most notorious for advocating about the multiverse was none other than Stephen Hawking...
The theory goes for every choice we make for every second that ticks by comes a new reality...
a reality where you pick red over blue and vice versa..
This theory goes that there are infinite realities so infinite possibilities of which is at your disposal..
Einstein has told us energy and matter are the same thing but different forms (E=mc2)....
So shifting is taking your energy/current consciousness and shifting it into a new matter in a desired reality...
Because consciousness is a product of the organization of energetic activity in the brain and so essentially we are tuning our minds to our desired frequencies on our radio that has infinite channels...
What quantum physics has told us is that particles from different time periods can become entangled....
A physics experiment conducted using a beam splitter and the creation of photons has proven reality subjective....

moving your consciousness over to your body in that reality. shifting relies on the multi-verse theory being true. the idea that there are multi universes with multiple reality’s. so when you’re shifting your moving you consciousness to that body in that specific reality. scripting is just a way to make sure you’re going to a more specific reality where certain events or relationships happen. information on tiktok is definitely not reliable or always correct. especially because the idea of shifting became so popular on tiktok so fast. there are definitely people on tiktok who have lied about it, or who spread false information. with that being said there are good resources to learn more about shift. amino has a prominent shifting community with pretty accurate information (with much more detailed and way more explanation than what you would find on tiktok)
aghh thank you!!! i hate to see people spread misinformation on tiktok and they make it sound so silly,,,, i was about to comment this exact comment
my thing is just that the other realities that may actually exist you don't know about. the harry potter "reality" doesn't exist because it's a book and the characters are played by actors who do actually exist here so idk
joy yes me too! i was hearing him list off what he was reading and was like “of course he wouldn’t believe it the things he’s reading are not true and sound stupid”💀 some people on tiktok just describe it in a way that sounds absolutely crazy and unbelievable but there’s some really cool information out there about it, it’s just not featured as much:/
@@blueharmonica3606 yeahh it is upsetting:( i've also heard people say that you disapper from your dr while you are in you cr, which is just not true xd and some of the povs that include shifting are ridiculous bc they have so much misinformation
Kalliana Marek so that’s kinda where the infinite/multi universe/reality part comes to play. if that theory is true it means there’s infinite reality’s, with infinite possibilities. so any reality you make up is a reality out there because there are infinite (if that makes sense). pretty much to put it shortly if you think it, it’s out there, because of the multi-universe theory. now with that being said, the characters could look like the actors, and they could not. that part depends on which reality in that universe you go to. so overall you have the harry potter universe that has magic. within that you have different realities. these realities may contain different people, people may look different etc. so you could potentially script that the people in your reality look like the actors who played them, or you could not. this is all because the multi-verse theory gives you infinite possibilities for everything. i hope that made sense! :)
honestly, shifting tiktok is the most cringe thing i’ve seen. and not to mention all the misconceptions they spread on there.
Ikr, its sad at this point
i hate the majority of shift tok 😭
exactly !! shifting is good, except when you listen to tiktok. tiktok is toxic and cringy + forever will be.
Ikr
@@BuniiBarney as you should.
the shifting thing does sound like lucid dreaming but also reminds me of maladaptive daydreaming which is a psychiatric condition lmao
you say ‘lmao’ as if having a mental illness makes you crazy?? i hope that’s not what you mean??
@@smileyface7256 omfg no i have that condition sorry xD i am very mentally ill lol
@@rickjones3334 oh okay haha. i’m also very mentally ill lmao (laughs through the pain)
i’m a maladaptive daydreamer and it’s totally different lmao daydreaming is through ur “minds eye” and you’re aware of it but shifting is totally different you can actually see through your eyes, not just your minds eye. admittedly, it’s a little like lucid dreaming but people stay in their other realities forever and idk if u can do that in a lucid dream lol
@@sadking1394 lucid dreaming is where you can control your dream, shifting realities is literally shifting your consciousness to a different reality. people get them mixed up all the time because of tiktok. tiktok is not reliable at all lmao
kurtis just called bs on shifting looks like i just threw the last two months of my life away 😔🤚
shifting is real but don't trust tiktok!! do your research in amino!
@@max-mu7rl oh no i know that i have trust me 😁😁
@ANTLERNIGHTS i wish i had a famous account 😔 but no what account are you referring too i’m now intrigued
@@max-mu7rl amino isn't good either- they spread a lot of limiting beliefs dhjsjd
@@ghost.6294 awh shit! do you have any suggestions on better places to do research? amino has been the most reliable source so far (i usually double check my facts)
Im 3 fashionable years late to the party, but we were all wrong i just actually successfully shifted realities in a tangible meaningful way. all u have to do is assume a standing position, walk to your medicine cabinet, and take your antipsychotics. I did not know this before i was unmedicated, and i def never thought i was in a franchise, But I Am Being 100% Serious When I Tell You, IF YOUR REALITY IS BEING HONESTLY IMPACTED BY HOMESICKNESS FOR A FICTIONAL PLACE TO WHICH YOU YOURSELF CAN TRAVEL, OR OTHER EQUALLY STARTLING ANOMALIES, it genuinely could help to talk to a doctor. it can be so hard to tell when your experiences are abnormal or unhealthy if you dont have adequate support.
There's something kinda worrying about the person being so upset about being away from Hogwarts. Like it can't be healthy to be that engrossed and attached to a dream??
yep that’s why i’d be really scared to shift and get attached or lose interest in my actual life, it’s also like that with hallucinogenics like salvia n what not, you can’t fully predict what u see and the effects it’ll have on you
its not a dream lmao what
That’s why you are supposed to sprint not being emotionally attached lol

@@naomiea.naomie6665 isn't salvia just a kitchen herb what

Do do do do do Inspector Gadget!
@@superstellarhere doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
MEEEEE
my generation is so broken we've started trying to shift realities 😭
i get your point but people have been doing this for years-
@@fisharson "shifting" honestly just seems like lucid dreaming. Hell, a lot of shifting methods are often used for lucid dreaming. I get having vivid dreams, I've had some of those myself, but passing dreams as real doesn't seem healthy.
@@hunnydarling no it hasn't
@@fisharson hasn't
just lucid dream instead. its way cooler and you can become thanos
They're straight up just meditating. I have achieved some gnarly stuff doing deep meditations.
thats dumb and completely untrue
@@littleleah310 how is it dumb lol
@@creepykelstheres different levels of meditation you cant acheive something like that without knowing what youre doing, maybe if you actaully tried shifting youd understand
@@littleleah310 I'm 31 years old and I've spent 20 years perfecting meditation as a ptsd coping mechanism, I assure you, the brain is capable of truly incredible things if you let it focus enough. Doesn't mean that makes those imaginary worlds any less special or that their meaning disappears.
@@creepykels ok, meditate while youre about to fall alseep and think of another reality youd like to go too, what do you have to lose
ngl that shifting thing sounds fun i want to witness the hell i have insighted in the cookie clicker universe
yes go ahead! tiktok doesn’t contain much accurate information though, your best bet is to go on Amino or even the comment section of shifting subliminals/shifting guided meditations. Bottom line, shifting doesn’t take any effort at all other than being aware you exist in the reality you intend to go to, and believing that you can do it (or believe you can do it even with doubts). Anyways, gl and you got this!
Why was there a guy named Gregory in my middle school who deadass wore a steam punk hat to school every day
TELL HIM HE HAD SWAG-
love how consistent this podcast is i can almost always count on there being an episode which is awesome
I zoned out and then came back when he said “Punk Rock Chick Pea Gravy” and I’m very confused.....
y e a h shifting makes me really uncomfortable I feel like that shit _can't_ be mentally healthy
If they weren't trying to pass off their dreams as real, then it would probably be ok.
finals are killing me so i appreciate this my guy
Oh my god same I’m literally drowning in review papers
I HAVE BEEN WANTING KURTIS TO TALK ABOUT SHIFTING FOR SO LONG BC I KNEW HE’D HAVE SHIT TO SAY! THIS IS GREAT
You actually shifted to a universe where he talked about shifting
kurtis: I call bullshit
me: **sadly crawls into starfish position**
@Berglind Pála Víðisdóttir i do be like that sometimes
LMFAO
LMAO
I think it’s like ghosts tbh. You either believe or you don’t, but I doubt either side will convince the other without sufficient evidence
@@runthejudes the fbi has evidence...
I do "reality shifting" all the time but that's because it's just meditation and your brain relaxes enough to lucid dream or enter an altered state of reality but it's not really a different one you're just ultra calm
