I want to understand the bridge that takes you from not believing in medicine but believing pathogens exist.

Delusions are among my favorite aspects of humanity! Everyone has some, they’re universal. Some are just far crazier than others. In this person’s case, they’ve been group mentality’d into a health cult out of either fear, insecurity, or a superiority complex. Delusions are so fun.

I'm in my 30s but still think I can become an F1 driver some day! Just need to get a go-kart to learn how to race and pull all the sponsorships, then get my big break and call up from McLaren.

Does anyone have Zak Brown's number?

What are some common harmless delusions?

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 31 points 1 year ago

That you’re doing a good job at work and people don’t disparage you when you leave the room. That one keeps me sane, it’s a load bearing delusion.

Joking aside, a simple feeling of control in situations you have little control over and the capacity to influence luck are both incredibly common and do little to no harm.

I don't have delusions that's why I go through an existential crisis every day

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 20 points 1 year ago

Try on a couple to see how they fit. Give yourself little delusions. As a treat!

[-] Zidane@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I'll take one delusion please, make it random I'm feeling spicy!

[-] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

You feel like you’re being followed when in dim light, but believe that complete darkness affects your pursuer more than it does you. Enjoy the time cost of compulsive light bulb replacement or choose neglect and stubbed toes. Have fun choosing your dining experiences based on lumens.

Jokes on you. I always think I'm doing a bad job but I keep getting promotions and raises.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

And I always assume people disparage me when I leave the room.

[-] Trae@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I've operated under the assumption that everyone's polite to my face, but can't stand being around me since high school.

It's always been easy to believe because I don't think I'd be interested in being acquainted with someone like me if I was somebody else.

Everything I've accomplished in life has just been exceedingly rare blind luck.

Animal welfare standards in the meat and dairy industry, for one. Well, harmless for the consumer at least.

Met a dude during the first covid year, he was completely honest when he told me he smokes meth to kill anything in his lungs because theres no way covid could survive all the meth smoke.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Here, smoke this.

[-] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 77 points 1 year ago

Wow... I didn't know what "dry fasting" was. It just means not drinking any liquids for extended periods and in extreme cases not even touching water even to bathe! My question is if they are abstaining from any liquid intake, where are they getting the urine from 😰😰😰

Also, do these people seriously just walk around all day long reeking like piss?

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 53 points 1 year ago

That's so bad for your kidneys! And yes they do.

[-] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 24 points 1 year ago

Can’t stink if you don’t abide.

[-] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 1 year ago

Stupid funny

[-] TheFriar@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I can’t smell like piss because I don’t abide to western standards. Urine is natural, anyone who thinks smelling like your body’s natural excretions will be banished from the kingdom of heaven. Namaste.

[-] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

What is this, reverse homeopathy?

𝘏𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘰pathy, honey

[-] puchaczyk@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 year ago

They need to consume as little water as possible to make that extra concentrated therapeutic urine

[-] FaceDeer@fedia.io 8 points 1 year ago

Have to save it up in jars ahead of time.

[-] Nom@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Is this a new twitch meta? /s

[-] nulluser@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Didn't you read it? They said they would dry fast... and drink. Duh. /s

[-] TTH4P@lemm.ee 34 points 1 year ago

Oh ok, so they mean they would die. They are saying they would die in that scenario. Got it.

[-] garbagebagel@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Idk about that, dying sounds like a medical name.

[-] dumblederp@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Every hippie I know would call her a moron.

[-] Naja_Kaouthia@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Just rip all the warning labels off of everything and let god sort it out.

[-] gregorum@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Don’t worry, they wouldn’t believe the labels anyway

[-] ArtVandelay@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Steve Jobs famously believed he could remove mucus from his body, which caused him to stink. No mucus, no body odor. His entire life, when people told him he stinks, he would reply that wasn't possible because he removed that which caused body odor.

[-] Jilanico@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

So is urine the new Robitussin?

[-] Maeve@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

Facebook is crazy. Full stop.

I wouldn't develop that because I don't abide by medical names.

Jesus Christ.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

taps forehead Can't have a disease if I don't agree it exists.
