Doubling down on the spooky posting. Also please check the high strangeness thread on c/main for even weirder shit. Anyways, what’s the creepiest thing you’ve experienced, real or paranormal.

    I've long considered myself a staunch atheist, but damn if I don't feel like there's unexplainable phenomena in our universe. I don't think I really buy into the idea of like a god or an afterlife at all, but I feel like there's disturbances in our reality that don't fit neatly into the "logic and science" way our world operates today.

        I like that explanation but it doesn't really cover the cases where multiple people see something paranormal simultaneously, unless those monkey brain parts are shared very accurately it seems implausible for multiple people to have the same illusion at once.

      What kind of stuff? I don’t necessarily disagree but I tend to think it’s mainly just things we haven’t discovered an explanation for yet

      well according to science 24% of the universe is dark matter and 73% is dark energy, add that together you get 97% of the mass energy of the universe is "dark," i.e. we know nothing about it except that it exists. People usually think of dark matter as something that exists way out in the vacuum of space, but we may interact with it every day without realizing.

      Anyway it's crazy to think the entire universe can be explained based on the 3% we have (partly) measured and documented
