What conspiracy theories do you believe in? - Put your tinfoil hats on

Any and all theories on planned obsolescence are immediately accepted at face value for me after learning about the lightbulb conspiracy. I will never trust electronics jews no matter what they cope with.

Also, on light bulbs, I've got one for you guys.
SPARKLES DON'T LOOK THE SAME ANYMORE.
I can't even show you what I mean because you can't represent it on screens.
The closest I can kind of use as an example is this video of an ermine in snow:

I'm almost certain it's because all the incandescent bulbs have gone away and LED doesn't make things sparkle right. Can anyone who understands light explain this to me?

I buy incandescent bulbs on Amazon.
I don't know for certain what the sparkles thing is -- do you mean that the light should reflect off of snow like glitter? If so, I do have a vague memory of seeing that because the kind of snow I get regionally is usually too moist to make good snowmen, so we have ice storms that are beautiful and dangerous [tree limbs crashing down] and the surface of the accumulated ice looks like glittery snow.

No, I mean that sparkles "should" look like that kind of beautiful, dangerous snow.
Sparkles like glitter, or those little sparkles on children's toys, or even the light refracting off gems or cut metal.

Which amazon bulbs are legit? I'll grab some.

So far, I've found decent sales on GE and Sylvania; this time, I'm trying something called Satco:

Satco S8525 40 watt A15 Incandescent; Frosted; 2500 Average Rated Hours; 280 lumens; Medium Base; 130 Volts; 4 Bulbs​

Apparently planetary alignment can have enough influence on the sun's plasma flows that it causes the 11 year cycle. But plasma is extremely susceptible to small perturbations as it is always extremely unstable. The tidal forces on tectonics on Earth from planetary movements other than Sun and Moon shouldn't really have a noticable effect. Although it would be interesting if sometimes you'd get metastable states in like volcanos and tectonic plates, and the perturbation from a bigger planetary alignment would be enough to knock it out of stability.

Nope, it's internal cycles. The sun is massive compared to the planets and the planetary alignments don't correlate with the 9-14 year cycles of the sun.

A relatively new study suggests a strong correlation between planetary movements and various solar cycles, and comes up with a model explaining the influence via Rossby-waves.
It doesn't cause the basic cycles, but could explain Rieger cycles, Schwabe cycles, and maybe Suess-de-Vries.
Sorry, I made it sound like they fully caused the 11 year cycle earlier, I didn't mean that. It's more that it perturbs the basic dynamo cycle.

Could be that LEDs have a lower color rendering index than incandescent bulbs. LEDs usually blue LEDs with cerium-based phosphor on top that converts part of the blue light into a broad yellow spectrum, which adds up to mostly white light, but compared to the near-blockbody radiation of an incandescent bulb, it's not the same spectrum. It lacks a bit in the region between the blue peak around 445 nm and the yellow at 550 nm, basically a hole around 500 nm. Sparkles are diffraction effects of white light being split into its spectral components by transparent media, and if there's a lack of spectral component, there'll be less sparkles, I guess.
There are other types of white light LEDs, some are blue/phosphor with an added red LED, some are red/green/blue, but they all have holes in the spectrum, there's practically none that have significant spectral power in the 500 nm region.
They look white to the eye, but the spectrum isn't as smooth as an incandescent bulb. Also, white light LEDs sometimes tend to have some directionality due to the way LEDs emit light. There's more blue spectrum in some directions than others, you can see that often in car headlights which appear colder or outright blue-ish in the center and at the edges sometimes.

here we go, earthquake hits Turkey today, it's on Eurasian plate where it stretches from Europe into southern part of Indonesia.
it's still late April but could be an early warning sign for July.

Magnitude 6.2 earthquake strikes near Istanbul as scores injured in panic
By Gul Tuysuz and Nadeen Ebrahim CNN

A 6.2-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of Istanbul on Wednesday leading to scenes of panic in the Turkish metropolis, officials said.

The quake occurred in the Sea of Marmara close to Silivri, which lies around 70 kilometers (40 miles) to the west of the city, and aftershocks are continuing, according to Turkey’s Disaster and Emergency Management Agency (AFAD).

Istanbul authorities said there had been no loss of life but that 151 people were injured after “jumping from heights due to panic.”

No residential buildings were damaged, the authorities added, but one abandoned building collapsed in the central Fatih District.

Turkey’s interior minister, Ali Yerlikaya, said the quake lasted a total of 13 seconds at a depth of seven kilometers, with 51 aftershocks recorded so far, the largest of which was of 5.9 magnitude.

“Let’s not let down our guard against possible aftershocks,” Yerlikaya said on X.

Some 6,100 emergency calls were received, he added, most of which were information inquiries.

CNN Turk anchor Meltem Bozbeyoğlu was live on air when the quake struck, with the studio visibly shaking on camera.

In February 2023, Turkey experienced one of its deadliest earthquakes in the last century, when a 7.8 magnitude quake struck 23 kilometers (14.2 miles) east of Nurdagi, in the southern Gaziantep province, at a depth of 24.1 kilometers (14.9 miles).

That quake also hit northern Syria, killing more 50,000 people across both countries.

With two key fault lines in its vicinity – the North Anatolian and the East Anatolian – Turkey is one of the most seismically active regions in the world, a reality that has amplified concern over Istanbul’s earthquake preparedness.

Once the capital of the Byzantine and the Ottoman empires, the densely populated city is home to around 16 million people. It lies precariously close to the North Anatolian fault, which passes within 20 kilometers (12.4 miles) of Istanbul and through the Sea of Marmara, according to the Geological Society of London.

Historically, that fault has led to several disastrous earthquakes, including a 7.6 magnitude quake that struck the nearby city of Izmit in 1999, killing over 17,000 people, and displacing an estimated 500,000 others.

An earthquake occurs when the Earth’s crust shifts abruptly, with energy radiated out as seismic waves and shaking that can violently impact people, buildings and infrastructure.

Those waves and factors related to the shifting ground determine an earthquake’s magnitude, as measured through 10 on the scale most commonly used to describe quakes. An earthquake that measures between 6 and 6.9 is classified as “strong.”

Hey guys1 did you know asteroid Y2024 is in no way going to hit us in 2032! There have been a couple of new articles saying it's going to miss us completely in 2032. No mention of the moon either. That asteroid years out isn't going to hit us at all now! It's really important I tell you guys this because there are two new articles this morning! I know they said it won't hit us before but they looked into it and here is new, fresh proof that Y2024 won't hit us!

Just had to tell you guys now, while it's so important. Y2024 isn't going to hit us in 2032.

I keep bringing up 2032 because they never really mentioned it before, but now it's everywhere. It's not going to hit us in 2032, not hit the moon in 2032, just not hit us.

My thing is, we already know it's not going hit us. Why keep telling us? Especially when there is a literal asteroid named Apophis. Why don't we get updates on it not hitting us?
 
Just checked it
It looks corporate as hell, whole thing feels like some kinda mainstream tabloid channel, like the kind that only discuss permissible and "fashionable" theories that are intentionally crazy sounding enough to not have any holding power or threaten any narrative, just normalfag stoner feed
I used to love the Why Files, then AJ started fucking around (drinking? coke? who knows? but said he was 'sick') and stopped uploading without updates, and now he's in cahoots apparently for some Big Deal (from their community tab on the channel). I tuned out when they started using AI slop, and then during his "hiatus", the compilations just kept coming. The popularity of his channel got to his head, I think. Then came the merch. All the merch. From stuffed talking hecklefish to gaudy kicks to rival 45/47's.

He also personally just started rubbing me the wrong way, a la Mark Laita. The way he speaks to his wife when they do their live events can be very condescending, and I also believe she admitted he bought her some plastic work (surgery) - take that with a grain of salt because I only watched lives when falling asleep lol. He and his brother started out attempting a weed delivery service in LA, so take that for what it's worth. Skeevy vibes for some reason.

ALL THAT BEING SAID, the older episodes are kino and I'd recommend the one on the AMA (American Medical Association) and how it got started.
 
Dandruff shampoo causes chronic dandruff so you'll continue buying it
Most harsh cosmetics worsen your condition so you'll continue buying it, either that or they simply do nothing at all but momentarily make your face look better simply by being wet or shiny after you apply it at then evaporate

That aside I fucking hate the current makeup scene, the full-face plastic doll look where everything has to be "perfect" and "on fleek", sharp, flawless, like it was carved out, makes women look downright disgusting but the circlejerk industry convinced them it's the way to go
Makeup should be worn like jewelry, a spot of lipstick is like a nice little charming necklace, putting on a whole fake face that looks disturbing and uncanny is the makeup equivalent of wearing a shitload of gaudy jewelry

You got some time to kill?
If you buy into the parasite-pill theory then A LOT of sexual degeneracy now makes sense because the "parasites" in people are pushing people towards such things as anal sex/LGTBBQ+ behaviour as that helps spread them around to the general population. If you are not a porn brained coomer filled with parsites you would find such things as anal sex and rimjobs disgusting as literal shit comes out of the anus.
I read this, some of it is plausible (parasites affecting host behavior is established; toxo affecting people is known; western farm meat is checked for parasites even though western humans are not; eating slugs will fucking kill you; tapeworms can give you cancer).
Unfortunately the lede is being buried. We should be more vigilant about parasites and disease in general, especially with pajeetification of food distro, the rest of it seems like standard NWO pattern-matching conspiracy woo.

The merch was around for ages before his recent sickness, and iirc the big deal is that he's going to be involved with an Art Bell documentary. I think he said as much to the patrons, not sure if he said it publicly or not. And while the AI slop is troubling, it's mostly contained in the visual element of videos where there wouldn't be any actual footage or relevant images. I can't speak to whether or not he's a coke-addicted misogynist or something, I seriously hope he isn't, but it's not like he's completely cashed out.
Sparkles like glitter, or those little sparkles on children's toys, or even the light refracting off gems or cut metal.
Do you mean they look different irl, or in videos? Because that could absolutely have to do with the film/digital recording. I think sparkles looked cooler on film than they do when recorded digitally.
