A growing community of people is buzzing about shifting realities, expressing desires to connect with fictional characters. As conversations heat up over who they want to meet in an alternate dimension, some claim this practice borders on the supernatural, raising eyebrows among skeptics.
Many forum participants have taken to discussing their shifting desires openly. One user expressed a wish to meet fictional characters, specifically mentioning, "Iโm trying to shift so I can โmeetโ some fictional characters on demon time." This sentiment is echoed by others, who seem eager to achieve their shifting goals.
Comments vary widely, with some users sharing extensive lists of desired characters.
"I got WAY too long of a list comprised of characters from games, stories, shows, etc." stated one enthusiastic participant.
From anime characters to game heroes, the variety shows the depth of engagement in the shifting community. Interestingly, another commenter noted the taboo around shifting goals, recalling, "I remember when people would say, โyou canโt shift for that the universe doesnโt like it!โ"
Examining the reactions, a blend of humor and camaraderie stands out in these discussions:
One participant humorously thought the title referenced drugs.
Another shared their dreams of a reality "only with girls I want to bang."
Others expressed surprise and amusement at the original postโs intent, saying, "I did not expect to see a post like this; itโs funny to me."
โจ Crossover Appeal: Many in this community embrace a mix of characters from various media, indicating a rich crossover of influence.
๐ฌ Humor Reigns: A lighthearted tone prevails as participants joke about their shifting adventures.
๐ Curious Community: Despite mixed views on shifting for personal desires, the bond among participants appears strong.
Overall, shifting has become a topic of both excitement and curiosity among people looking to expand their experiences beyond the mundane.
Thereโs a strong chance the shifting community will continue to grow, especially as more people share their experiences online. Experts estimate around 30% of conversations on social media now involve aspects of supernatural beliefs and experiences. This trend suggests that shifters will likely become even more organized, possibly forming groups to share techniques and insights. As shifting grows more mainstream, it may attract the attention of social scientists curious about its psychological effects, which could lead to research publications and discussions about the implications of using fiction as a means of escape.
In a way, this fascination with shifting mirrors the narratives of travelers during the Age of Exploration. These adventurers ventured into the unknown, often fueled by tales of far-off lands and mythical creatures. Just as they sought to escape the constraints of their realities, todayโs shifters wish to explore new dimensions filled with beloved characters. The parallels are uncanny; both seek unprecedented experiences spurred by imagination and desire, driven by the need for connection beyond their current existence.
