Ever felt like your spirit hit the snooze button while your body ran errands? Today we’re poking at the veil between dream and waking life—where soul-surfing meets psychic surveillance. Astral projection and remote viewing might sound like sci-fi fanfic, but to some, they’re as real as your next lucid dream. From lucid lobbies to energy-charged insights, we’re tracing the fine line between mystical exploration and mind-powered influence.

And that’s just the tip of today’s stew. We’re eyeing a meme coin with mad potential, checking the pulse of gaming’s soft side, and watching F1 history get rewritten. Scroll on—the weird, the wild, and the wallet-worthy await.

Conspiracies & Fringe Topics

Today’s Rabbit Hole: 

Astral projection, a soul-based practice, occurs during sleep via lucid dreaming, allowing exploration of symbolic realms and influencing reality with practice. Remote viewing, soul fluid-based, happens awake, using visualization to affect reality directly. Both require strong energy bodies, discipline, and self-understanding for effective use. (@blkflamee)
