Stick a penny on the wall - and break the matrix... Strange days indeed!

Stick a penny on the wall - and break the matrix... Strange days indeed!

It started on TikTok.

Stick a penny on the wall with the intention that it'll stick, and it'll break the "matrix".

I tried it and it worked.

After about 24 hours, there were tons of videos on it.  

I figured because there's an edge to the outside circumference of a penny, that the edge was getting pressed into the paint, and that was what was causing it to stick..

So I tried a dime that has a much less pronounced edge, and it worked.

I noticed people sticking pennies to walls that looked sort of laminated or were wood paneling..
Not paint.

So I thought I'd test with something heavier..

 

Nobody told me there'd be days like these.. Strange days indeed!

 

There's been a ton of weird stuff going on.. The massive coronal holes, bizarre worldwide zombie sightings / Prion disease. Atmospheric anomalies like ultra weird cloud formations. The clairvoyants and Empath types are saying something feels off, like something's coming. The CIA document just released pointing to reality as a simulation, crazy surveillance like Flock and Acxiom, aliens, etc..

Of course some of this stuff has always existed - but it's a flood right now..

 

So, have you stuck a penny to your wall yet?

A spooky update on that glitchy day.

10 days ago I had a really weird day.. It was so extraordinary that I made a post about it here to see if other people were experiencing it too..

It started when an entire section of an article I'd written disappeared. I was using AI to proofread and it wasn't there either - it was as though that whole portion of the article never happened. I wrote 2 paragraphs on my local copy then pasted it into AI. We talked back and forth about it for a few minutes, then I went into the kitchen to get more coffee. When I got back to my desk, I couldn't find that section. I scrolled up in my AI chat, and it wasn't there either. It wasn't anywhere.

Right after that, I was filming a person talking when a word at the end of their sentence "echoed". You can hear me on the video saying "Wait - how ... did ..that just happen?" And yes - I caught the echo on video! (I can't show it because of the person and place in the video.) It was so extremely bizarre and creepy that I was dumbfounded for a while.

That's when I made the post here..

But something else extraordinary happened that day..

The next day after the glitches, a person in my home pointed to the analog clock on my office wall and said "Your clock's battery is out." And indeed, the clock on the wall was about an hour and a half behind the current time. When I looked at it, I remember thinking "That's weird, the seconds hand is moving at the right speed.", and I knew I had recently changed the battery.

Because the clock hadn't stopped like it usually would have when the battery needed to be changed, and because the seconds hand was moving at a normal speed, I decided to just set the time and wait to see if it kept time.

It did.

Ten days later, as I'm writing this - the time is still correct from when I set it.

That means - on the day all these glitches were happening. When paragraphs I'd just written never existed, and a person's voice echoed and was caught on video - that the clock on my wall stopped for an hour and a half (or went backwards), then started again, and keeps perfect time.

Did everything stop for 1.5 hours? Did I zap back into reality right when that person's voice echoed, maybe I was slightly out of sync which manifested in me seeing/hearing both times at that same time in the form of an echo?  

I just checked to see what interesting things were going on that day.

They started shutting down the LHC for a long-term shutdown.

But more importantly - a giant rip in the Sun's atmosphere occurred, called a coronal hole. On the 23rd, the intense solar wind hit Earth and disrupted the magnetosphere.  

..with a side of time glitches and missing reality.

 

I don't know too much about this stuff, but apparently people think that because our thoughts and nervous system run on electrical impulses, that geomagnetic shifts disrupt us personally. Others think it causes glitches, brain fog and time loops. wtf?

 

I have goosebumps right now..

 

That is too much of a coincidence.. Anyway - after I found out about my clock being off, I was completely freaked out and knew I had to make an update post.

Also, we're officially starting 2 new posting categories (flair), if that's alright with the team that is..

While we will always be ME centric, we need something that covers glitches because it creates Mandela Effect type situations, for instance with that section of the article never existing. I have a feeling it all ties in together anyway, in one way or another.

 

So this post will be the first to debut the new category:

.:( Glitches, Matrix, Simulation ):.

 

There will also be:

.:( CERN, Colliders ):.

POLL: Do affected people have an Inner Dialog (a narrating voice in the mind)?

It's said there are two central ways of thinking - an inner dialog and no dialog.

An inner dialog sounds like a voice in your mind when you think. For instance, when you read this, there is simultaneously a voice in your mind reading the words along with you.

I am affected and do have an inner dialog. It's fascinating to think that some people don't have a cohesive thought pattern, rather they're processing symbols and images.

As I understand it, for things that don't require thought in words or images, they are just reacting almost on instinct, like you would think an NPC would, whereas inner dialog people think it through with an inner voice, even when not required.

They say there are slightly more non-inner dialog thinkers than inner dialog thinkers, but that it's roughly split in half.

Might be an interesting poll!!

The esoteric difference between inner dialog and non-inner dialog thinkers is definitely an interesting rabbit hole for your Friday night!

POLL: Are ME affected people prone to premonitions aka seeing or sensing the future?

This has come up a few times on the sub, where affected people have mentioned the possibility of having seen or sensed the future with regard to a change.

Some have tied it to the source of "dual memories" where you know it was one way, but the current way seems familiar too.

For myself, I've been prone to premonitions since I was a child. Later, I learned that I'm able to connect subtle patterns, especially in people, which can lead to correctly guessing future scenarios - but that doesn't account for all of it.

Another thing is that "gut- punch" or queasy feeling when you enter some buildings or areas. Alternatively, feeling an overwhelming sense of good or joy in some areas. I don't know what to call it, but it often comes up and ghost hunting communities..

Lastly, I wanted to note this phenomenon:

I've noticed since I was a kid that street lights turn off whenever I get near them. Later in life, I found out this happens to other people, and it's known as being a "Slider" (or Street Light Interference / SLI phenomenon). I made a poll about it on this sub and found out that TONS of affected people are Sliders!

Perhaps affected people have something uniquely different going on compared to the masses?

The Statue of Liberty is not on Ellis Island anymore!

 

This is so freakin' wild.. The Statue of Liberty is not on Ellis Island now.. It's on "Liberty Island" lmao

Whatever - we were literally taught this in school. It was on tests!

I'm 1000% positive the Statue of Liberty was always on Ellis Island - I have no doubt whatsoever.

 

For the cheap seats:
The Statue of Liberty is on Liberty Island now, and always has been - we already know that.
Some of us know with absolute certainty that the statue was always on Ellis Island. I can't explain it, I don't need to, and to be frank, no explanation you have will account for these bizarre changes. You can quote a Wiki, talk about your summer vacation there, comment on what you were taught, state your age, and offer to find your old postcards - it won't matter...

Reality changed.

History changed.

POLL: Have you seen small dark shapes steak by in your peripheral vision?

There have been a lot of reports recently of people experiencing small dark blobs that briefly streaked by in people's peripheral vision.

The cause is unknown, but a few people are attributing it to CERN recently shutting down.

Did Sex In The City Flip-Flop??

So I was reading here and saw a few people saying Sex In The City flip-flopped?

I know it as Sex In The City... At the time, it was so liberating for women, and a very big deal. Media was saturated with it! I have a raunchy anchor memory about the name that I won't repeat here - but it was for sure Sex In The City!  

https://preview.redd.it/bqzlhm0lr9fh1.jpg?width=585&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c611a16ad9b0c6b7f159d81a2924fb5d80406646

 
Then the Mandela Effect happened and suddenly the title was worsened to Sex And The City (womp womp). Sorry historic and hilarious ground-breaking show..  : (

Sometime after the change, I stepped away from the Mandela Effect because the topic was overrun with toxic conversation - we didn't have an amazing sub like the Society back then!! Then yesterday I happened to read here that Sex In The City flipped back to Sex In The City??!  

https://preview.redd.it/qrtthbanr9fh1.jpg?width=3072&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e4a03216bc90f4649d4b26a1eb2c9c4620d4fc92

 

So it changed back to normal while I was away??

...but NOW IT'S BACK TO THE CRAPPY TITLE?

Basically, I missed when it flipped back? So.. it was "In", then changed to "And" - then back to "In", and now back to "And"...

Can anyone confirm??

Why do some people struggle understanding the Mandela Effect? Why does it make some people angry?

We’ve had an influx of "naysayers" over the last week, which reminded me of how curious their behavior and reasoning is. It's so prevalent that I think there's something deeper there - as though the pattern in their logic tells a larger story.  

First, why do they attack something they aren't affected by? For instance, I'm not impacted by spicy regional cuisines, so I don't waste time going into those forums to tell people what I think about their food. I don't tell them how to cook and I'm not mad at them. If a recipe comes up in my social feed that I don't like - I don't cook it. Easy right? If too many of those recipes come up in my feed, I mute those subs - all without breaking a sweat.  

Second, these "skeptics" always rely on a false sense of authority - citing their age, location, or the current state of reality. They claim to have the answers because they're 50 years old, or because they just Googled something, or because they "knew a guy who had those books."

The problem is that the 'authority' they're reaching for doesn’t apply to the Mandela Effect... It doesn't matter how old you are. It doesn't matter if you have a vintage Bible. If reality changed, that means your old Bible changed too. How does that not make sense?  

Thirdly is the anger.. Some people get wildly upset about the Mandela Effect. I've had people tell me about all kinds of "conspiracies", but I just say "I don't really go for that stuff, sorry." whereas if I tell someone about the Mandela Effect, they lose their shit.

Is it a flight-or-fight response to something that's scary to them? It has all the hallmarks of actual cognitive dissonance.  

Fourth - why do "skeptics" assume we aren't skeptical ourselves? They assume we don't have logic on par with theirs. Obviously we know memory is fallible - but memory is the first step in knowledge, and we're talking about things we know well, not a flimsy recollection. It's bizarre how much "skeptics" lean on the "bad memory" excuse, like the people in the world around them are inherently dumb or something.  

Fifth - "skeptics" misunderstand Occam’s Razor, yet constantly throw the term around, thinking it means "the simplest explanation is the correct one". That's a misunderstanding though - the principle actually states "when presented with competing hypotheses, start with the one that makes the fewest assumptions."

The irony? Skeptic's "bad memory" excuse requires a tower of assumptions to explain away the Mandela Effect.. You'd have to assume millions of unrelated people across the globe simultaneously suffered the same highly specific neurological glitch, misremembering the exact same details in the exact same ways ways. Not even similarities in human behavior and psychology can account for that..

Attributing the Mandela Effect to reality changing doesn't require more assumptions than assuming a synchronized, worldwide failure of human memory.

Even if Occam's Razor meant what they think it does, the simplest solution is not automatically the right one. It's a methodological tool, not a universal law - and if it's wrong, it's wrong.

 

I've been involved with the Mandela Effect for well over a decade.. I’ve always been fascinated by the logic behind the things they say. They treat reality changing - possibly the biggest thing to happen to humanity in 2,000 years - as a simple case of flawed memory. They seem to willingly miss the point and ignore important facts. They reach out snobbishly to solve something they don't understand. They're annoyed by something they aren't impacted by...

The behavior is flawed.
The logic doesn't pass the acid test of common sense.
It's fascinating.

 

So what do you think? Do you have any theories?

Converse high-top's famous Star Logo is on the INSIDE of the ankle now?!

This Mandela Effect has been known for a while, but there's been talk in the sub about them recently, and some people weren't aware the Star Logo was is on the inside now..

A few years ago I was coming out of a shop downtown and one of the guys was outside smoking.. He was wearing Converse, so I asked him if he'd ever heard of the Mandela Effect. He said "Oh, where people remember stuff different or whatever?" and I said, "Yeah, like a lot of people remember that logo being on the outside" as I pointed down towards his shoes. He looked down and was silent for a second, then said "You just blew my mind"... He went on to say that he could have sworn the logo was on the outside.. We talked for a few minutes and you could tell he was genuinely weirded out.

There is a HUGE number of people that remember the logo on the outside.. Consider the guy who was wearing the shoes and thought the logo was on the outside.  

https://preview.redd.it/jnz4i4p2f3bh1.png?width=1145&format=png&auto=webp&s=6d23a8f130e333b57e7ad02b892ccf7f8823f0fb

 
This Effect follows in line with one of the most common things about Mandela Effects - it's always a change for the worse.. Think about it, why would you put your logo on the INSIDE of the ankle where it was harder to see? I wonder if the designers were like "damn.. why didn't we think of that". lol

 

This Effect isn't because of a knock off, or a special Japanese line. It's not tricky advertising or the Converse "one-star" sneaker line..

These were the shoes on our feet. We bought them. We wore them. People like myself decorated them with a sharpie... We bought them in department stores and malls. People that had them a long time ago remember the logo on the outside (check out the screenshot below), and people recently too.

The guy in the screenshot is so confident in their knowledge, they're posting in the r/Converse sub!!

The moment you knew it was real.. What was your first Mandela Effect?

You never forget your first time..

What's the story behind your first introduction to the Mandela Effect? Did you get that weird, hard-to-describe feeling?

I'll never forget my first experience..  

I was standing in my living room flipping through YouTube videos on my TV.. My feed had a video from Jacob Israel about the Mandela Effect. I had heard of the Mandela Effect in passing, but never looked into it, so I decided to play the video.

He ran through some examples, Bernstein.. Fruit of the Loom.. My brow furrowed and my eyes narrowed with the onset of confusion. Was this guy serious? He sure seemed like it.

Then the image of the Map of the World came up.

Being a 'map person', a strange type of awe came over me.

A tear welled at the corner of my eye. Not from sadness but from a feeling I've never had before.. Jacob was presenting this as something real - as though I could look at the small globe on my desk and confirm the changes he was talking about.. He sounded completely sincere.

The feeling is hard to describe. My mind was blank but racing. The concept of "reality changed - I'm not where I was" began to set in. It was a slow but powerful shock to my system.  

I checked the globe.  

Jacob was being completely sincere.

   

So, what was your first experience?

That weird feeling persisted for each ME after that.. Converse.. Wizard of Oz.. JFK limo.. Bible verses.. etc.. It got easier as the years went by.. Now I'm completely used to it.  

So share it up! What's your intro to the ME story?

Was it something obscure that only you would know? ..Did you notice a change, but didn't know about the Mandela Effect yet? ..How did people react when you told them?

Kit-Kat is getting salty! ..Don't be sh!tty Kitty - observe don't absorb!

This came up the other day and I was honestly a little shocked at Kit-Kat's social media team being off-putting toward their own customer base..

Seems like a divisive response, not inclusive or playful at all like you'd expect from a good Kat.. I guess I expected something witty from the Kitty.. ..I mean really, give us a break!!

 

Kit-Kat snapped.. and not in a good way.

 

Their patience must be wafer-thin to offer up a half-baked response like this. They totally melted under the heat on this one, leaving a bad taste in our mouths that is all bitter and no sweet!

u/FearElise is BACK!!

I was lying in bed and browsing Reddit before calling it a night when I got a notification saying there was a problem. A different notification from my phone popped up saying I had an email from Reddit.. Here's what I got:  

https://preview.redd.it/p6htgcqlyo9h1.png?width=1935&format=png&auto=webp&s=19dbafa65088fb29b90cfedc4c643dce89bdd64c

 

The email asked me to change my password and was vague as to why. I assumed someone was trying to brute-force my account, so I got out of bed and went to my office then changed my password.

I quickly found out I couldn't remove a comment on the Sub. I tried to send a message to our group chat, but it errored out.. By this time it was very late - and I was very worried.

The next morning, I made a ticket and waited..

The next day, I contacted my friend and yours, u/MintyMancinni. I asked them to take control of the Sub. They stepped up bigly, thank you Minty!  

Over the next few days my posts began to disappear...  

Then my profile said I was banned.  

I still hadn't heard anything after a few days so I made another ticket with a different department in case I got it wrong the first time. Minty found out I wasn't the only one dealing with this.. It looked like a glitch.

I could do a few administrative things. I could see our group chat but couldn't write anything. I got notifications on new posts and reported comments, but I was only able to remove some things and not others.. It was like I had one foot in and one foot out in some kind of digital waiting room.  

The owls are not what they seem..

 

Time went by.. A lot of time. I lost my Reddit streak of 680 days (I know).. Supposedly it can be restored (I took screenshots). My account was just a few months shy of 10 years old - and now it was gone. Nobody knew what was going on and I couldn't get answers.

..And the "glitch" was affecting A LOT of people:  

https://preview.redd.it/je5xva1k1p9h1.png?width=1216&format=png&auto=webp&s=f56f15529a140ccbdd87420507234ec588971dfd

 

I'd made my Reddit account all those years ago in part to secure my band's name at the time, "Fear Elise" (a play on Fur Elise). Also because the social site I was on was becoming a sh#thole. I had gained some notoriety for my ME posts there, and people looked forward to them - but the site was overrun with politics and had changed so much over the years - it just wasn't worth it anymore. Myself and another ME advocate left and came here. That site shut down a few years later.

My very first post here was a Mandela Effect post 10 years ago!

I posted in that "other sub" occasionally, but found the same level rudeness and closed-mindedness as the site I left. I tried the "other other ME sub", but eventually was disappointed there too.

I'm 100% confident the Mandela Effect is real, and it's easy to defend - but constantly arguing the same points gets old after a while, their goal I'm sure.

So I walked away altogether..

It seemed like there was no place for us.

 

Then it hit me..

I know what I want, it's what we all want. A place that TRULY SUPPORTS Affected and ME curious people. A place where we can talk openly about this incredible phenomenon!  

So, why not create a community with actual community? Like, a whole Society?

..Something that's intellectual and empowering. Something we can be proud of.  

..And so the Mandela Effect Society was born.

 

We'd been up nearly a year and were gaining serious traction when the "glitch" happened. We'd had lots of compliments and people were genuinely happy.. New discoveries were being made and people were getting comfortable with the concept. ..But the glitch had gone on so long I was starting to think it was over.

 

I don't know what was fixed - all I know is that I'm very, very glad it's fixed! I'm ready to jump back in - and I'm more inspired than ever.  

A very special thanks to u/MintyMancinni. They are a co-owner now as they've more than earned it.. They were instrumental in keeping the sub afloat and in getting me back. They are highly invested in the cause (and the Society) and have put in a ton of work. So, hats off to them - we could have lost the Society if it weren't for them!

Thanks to the rest of the team too.. Thanks to everyone who was asking about me and the well-wishes..

Thanks to our community too - there's been some amazing content posted over the last few months!

I didn't want to change my password from my phone, so I got out of bed and went to my office. I logged in, then made sure the email from Reddit was legit.

Time went by - a lot of time. I lost my Reddit streak - I was at ~680 days (I know).. I took screenshots of my streak before it disappeared so it could be restored as I had read that'd be possible..

My account was just a few months shy of 10 years old - and now it was gone. Nobody knew what was going on and I couldn't get any help.

It was becoming evident that there were A LOT of people affected:

I'd made this Reddit account all those years ago in part to secure my band's name at the time, 'Fear Elise' (a play on Fur Elise) - but also because the "social" site I was on was turning into a sh#thole, and being overrun by hardcore political jerks.. The site was decent and I had gained some notoriety there for my Mandela Effect posts. People looked forward to my weekly posts like a podcast.. Myself and another person fiercely and smartly defended the Mandela Effect against the growing swarm of out of control assholes. The whole site had changed so much, and it wasn't the same anymore.. Eventually we'd both had enough and left. We both went to Reddit. A few years later the site shutdown.

In fact, my very first post on Reddit 10 years ago was a Mandela Effect post!

I posted in the "other sub" occasionally but found it had the same level rudeness and closed mindedness. I tried the "other other ME sub" but was disappointed there too.

I'm 100% confident the Mandela Effect is real. I have no problem defending it - but constantly fighting gets old - and that's what they want. Hearing the same people spouting the same elementary excuses got to be enough, so I walked away altogether.

It seemed like there was no place for us..

 

Then it hit me..

I know what I want. I know what we want. I know what's missing from the ME sphere.

Why not make a sub that TRULY SUPPORTS Affected and ME curious people?

Why not create a community with actual community - a Society.

Something intellectual, something empowering. Something we can all be proud of.

I have lots of varied experience that would be helpful - from the military to project management to site and server administration including leadership and management roles. Not to mention, years and years of ME battle experience straight from the trenches.

I can't believe I hadn't done something like this sooner...

..and so The Mandela Effect Society was born.

 

The Society had been up for nearly a year when Reddit's "glitch" happened. We were just gaining traction. The glitch had gone on so long I was starting to think it was over.

 

I don't know what to say other than I'm very, very glad it's fixed. I'm ready to jump back in, and I'm more inspired than ever.

Thanks to the rest of the team too! Thanks to everyone who was asking about me and the well-wishes!

Thanks to our community too for posting some great content and fighting the good fight..  

Locked, cocked and ready to rock!

Policy Update: Cross-Posting and Linking Etiquette

A few communities on this platform are fundamentally incompatible with the core mission of The Mandela Effect Society.

In particular, there is one subreddit whose general posture on the Mandela Effect is the exact polar opposite of ours. Because of their anti-knowledge stance and history of hostility toward our Beloved Society and the Mandela Effect phenomenon in general, we are establishing firm guidelines.

We feel so strongly in our mission to allow supportive ME communication - and all the benefits that entails - that we choose not to support them in any way. This includes posting links to their sub, posting articles from their sub, and even naming them outright (though many people here have nicknamed them "the Septic Sub").

Conversely, we respectfully don't post links to our Society or our articles in their sub - and we ask that you do the same.*

WTF is that!?! No thanks..

Effective Immediately:

• No Cross-Posting:

Do not copy+paste their articles here, and please do not cross-post our content onto their board.

- If you see an interesting idea there, you're welcome to re-work it in your own way, adding your own ideas for our Sub. We support sharing knowledge surrounding the Mandela Effect.

- As an original poster (OP) with original content (OC), you might like to get as many eyes on your ideas as possible! ..To that end, as the OP, you are absolutely welcome to paste your OC here, even if you previously posted it in the other sub.

• No Direct Links:

Do not post links to their subreddit or threads.

• No Mentions:

Do not name them or advertise their community here (even to complain about them). We can't stop you from using their nickname, but we will remove any direct mention of their sub.

By staying clean, we will keep our energy positive, supportive, and focused on exploring the Mandela Effect phenomenon. Their nature necessitated our Society - we were born from their failures. It's what makes us different and we're growing every day. We are even becoming known off-platform! Each of your voices are valuable and sought after. We will continue to lift you up and make sure you are heard loud and clear. You are a part of a movement. Thank you!

We stand on our own as something unique in the ME space - we are a breath of fresh air that will not be polluted.
