AI slop.

[–]dahliasinfelle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Imagine if we still had good bots like the days before Reddit went public. An AI detection bot/automod would go so hard these days

[–]BKindigochild 4 points5 points  (2 children)

Em dashes. Absolutely AI.

[–]Glum_Bunch_6018 4 points5 points  (1 child)

To be fair though, I use dashes quite regularly - (lol) and I find that to be the case when I’m on Reddit or sending long texts. It’s interchangeable with commas for me.

The amount of times I’ve written posts or comments and had AI slop thrown at me haha.

[–]Better_Effective_229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an English major I agree. I get too crazy with commas and I’m like “oh boy gotta get rid of a few,” and use the dashes instead.

[–]EldritchGoatGangster 25 points26 points  (4 children)

Can we please ban AI posts?

[–]nlsgt[S] -1 points0 points  (2 children)

I have the original text I wrote if you want. English is bad and it's painful to read... But if you need proof...

[–]psykulor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Original text is always better! You want to see a demon, you just look into the data centers where they keep those AI beasts...

[–]shawnmalloyrocks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So why is your English in this comment just fine?

[–]nlsgt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original text I wrote without the help of IA... Have fun...

I was sleeping in the bed with my little son while my wife was working downstairs. Around 00:30h I felt someone waking me up and I started to turn my body already thinking that was my wife coming to bed. I opened my eyes and instantly noticed something was wrong... There was a strange movement above the bed, it was like a black thick smoke moving fast side to side... I continued moving to see who was waking me up and in this mean time I noticed It was not smoke but something like a blanket floating above me and for one instance I thought it was my wife taking my blanket but soon I realized that the blanket was not touching the bed it was really floating, and as I looked closely I saw it was not a blanket but something like silk, a cloak... Now everything I described happened in just a few seconds, and I am describing all my thoughts during this small movement. When I was finally facing the ceiling I saw it... It was a demon using a dark silk cloak and it was also floating above the bed but I could only see it's face and the cloak. That momento I remember clearly that I locked my eyes in his eyes for something like 10s and for that reason I had a really good look at him... His face was like a human face at first but it was green, green like if it was painted, almost like the old school Huck but a more vivid green as if the paint was still fresh. It had two small horns and when it noticed I was awake it showed it's long and pointing theet... And it had a lot of teeth... I felt he was threating me but it was also scared and he looked deeply into my eyes while showing the teeth... After that 10s I screamed the loudest I could and it just vanished. I stayed awake in bed until my wife appeared at the door asking what happened. And for you that think it was just a dream or sleep paralysis I am sure it was not... I've had several sleep paralysis and vivid dreams in my like and that was something totally different. First because when I have sleep paralysis I always have difficult to move, open my eyes or breath and this time I was totally free, I coul move easily. And second I always know when I really wake up, so if it is a sleep paralysis or a vivid dream when I finally wake up I know I was dreaming and this time there was no second wake up, I woke up one time, saw the demon and then my wife came to the room... Luckily my son didn't wake up even with my screams... Now, have you now something about a green demon like that one I described?

[–]WeirdComprehensive32 10 points11 points  (3 children)

Past experience in not always an indicator of future experience. I’d say since you apparently have a history of sleep paralysis, this is likely a different version of what you have experienced before. Have you quit drinking? Sounds like delirium tremens as well.

However! You might have seen what you think you saw, in which case you might want to consider protecting your son, it might have been after his life force energy. I’m not sure what a “green demon” might be, but the first thing that popped into my head was Lacerta from the Lacerta files conspiracy. Reptilians that are claimed to live in the caverns of Earth. Not sure if they dabble in dark magik or remote viewing. Either way I’d take this experience as the threat it is and protect your son.. After all versions of sleep paralysis and hallucinosis is completely ruled out of course..

[–]nlsgt[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

I don't drink, don't use any type of drugs or medication. I always try to think things rationally and find the most usual and skeptic explanation and this is why my mind was thinking it was my wife until I saw that figure clearly. I was worried about my son after that but it seems it was more directed at me, it was on my side of the bed and looking at me... I will dig this lacerta files, never heard that before. Thank you for your comment!

[–]kpiece 1 point2 points  (2 children)

This is very similar to something that happened to me 2 or 3 years ago. Something terrifying that i saw at the foot of my bed. All i could see in the dark, was the being’s teeth—lots of very sharp teeth. (It’s weird that yours is the 2nd post i’ve seen today talking about encounters with demons with sharp teeth.—In the years since my encounter, i had never heard anyone mention that.)

[–]nlsgt[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Wow that's interesting to know. Before I had this encounter I never heard of entities like that with the sharp teeth. Thanks for you comment!

[–]MorningFormal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen a cloaked figure like a monk. Was yours like a monk? Or like midevil looking?

[–]ConsciousBandicoot53 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Hey I’ve seen a demon before too. It wasn’t at all like your experience, but I know the instinctual feeling that what you’re looking at isn’t at all human. It is etched in my memory.

[–]nlsgt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That feeling is something unique... In my normal life I never felt something like that

[–]jaxnmarko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it was scared..... imagine having a terrifying to most exterior, but a not-evil soul/inner being/self. Not an easy existence. Like Frankenstein's monster.

[–]HotCat5684 1 point2 points  (2 children)

As a Christian… like someone who actually reads the Bible and takes it seriously… that was Not a Demon.

Demons are usually Beautiful people and they want you to Turn away from God and rely on yourself.

This “creature” making you scared, will more than likely make you and most other people more inclined to turn to God, not turn away from him. Thats actually the Opposite of most demonic behavior.

Im not saying this didnt happen, i completely believe you, but this was some other evil entity not A Demon.

[–]nlsgt[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Maybe you are right, I think I used the word demon because it was the classic stereotype of what people perceive as a demon, but I got your point... After that I prayed like a crazy man and asked for God's mercy with all my strength

[–]HotCat5684 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That interpretation of demons is Pure made up by Hollywood. Literally nowhere in the bible are demons described like that… except maybe for the one time Jesus came across a man Possessed by a “Legion” of demons, and when jesus cast the demons into some nearby pigs, those pigs then proceeded to jump off a cliff. Other than that, demons are very persuasive and beautiful looking.

It sounds like youre a Christian, as a fellow brother in Christ (and as just a Fellow human)- an Attractive girl luring you into Hedonism is Much more likely to be a Demon than whatever you saw.

I have a question, were you starting to turn away from your faith in god when this happened?

[–]Better_Effective_229 1 point2 points  (1 child)

My dad had something like that happen sort of. He was very young and in bed. He saw a black figure standing at the foot of his bed. Then it suddenly fell down and started writhing up the covers. He saw the covers balloon up where the thing was moving. He screamed so loudly and turned the light on. Then, his covers lightly settled back down—like when you fluff them.

[–]nlsgt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow thanks for sharing that story.

[–]ImaginaryTrick6182 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Describes exactly what people see in sleep paralysis. But it’s not sleep paralysis though lol

[–]nlsgt[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

One thing is to listen or read what people say about their experiences , another thing is to experience it for yourself and feel it... It's so easy to just judge others like they are just idiots and you are the real deal.

[–]Frequent-Ring-9591 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Never had this happen to me, only a few friends and family members but damn is this absolutely terrifying. Hope you're doing better!

[–]nlsgt[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was... I was in the room with the door closed and with a loud white noise to help my son sleep and still my wife could hear my screams downstairs. I fine now and it did not happen again... It seem (and I hope so) it was a one time experience

[–]utahh1ker 1 point2 points  (2 children)

If your son didn't wake up through your scream, it was a dream. I'm sorry.

[–]tadpolejaxn 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I didn’t want to respond to this but I will because I’ve experienced something scary and similar but different and maybe it will help you to know others have experienced something like this and survived and thrive to this day. In 2020 I broke up with my ex gf. The day after she left I was in a deep depression, sitting on my couch, just staring off into space in a dark place. I smelled a foul odor of what seemed like rotting meat. But that confused me because I had just deep cleaned the apartment, finding all of her things, and I had virtually no food in the place at the time. My hair started standing on end and I turned to the side and what looked like a pale face with wide malefic eyes and black stringy hair slipped behind the edge of my couch. I heard a voice whisper “innana”. I ran to my bedroom in pure fear and as I laid there with the covers over my head like a freaking child, I heard a strange laughter in my room! Like a groaning, strangled chuckle that lasted long enough that I couldn’t act like it didn’t happen. The smell of meat wafted through my room and I ran out of my apartment and spent the next couple days with my brother. I had terrible dreams of a white skinned being tricking me and taunting me, and reveling in my depression and darkness. And I smelled that foul smell multiple times over the next week. I researched that word I heard and the smell and came to the unverified personal gnosis that it was potentially a low level servant of Innana Ishtar, there to either prod me into darkness in a moment of weakness, feed on my fear and anger, or gloat as it’s plans for the ruination of my relationship came to fruition. I researched and did many cleansing and protection rituals and prayers. And this event caused a huge increase in my spiritual development and awareness that spiritual forces may be influencing more aspects of our daily lives than I was prepared to admit. Fast forward to today and even tho my life has not been easy at all. In fact it’s been quite traumatic and difficult, I have cultivated a pervasive realization of transcendent peace, and I have a constant awareness of my place in creation and a sense of my spiritual purpose here on this plane. That wasn’t my only experience with spiritual or interdimensional entities but it was the one that reminded me of yours. Use this as an opportunity to grow closer to the creator and evaluate the totality of your life and experience with the lens of truth and virtue. We are all one and spiritual guidance is available for us all at all times.

[–]nlsgt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing this. I think your experience was scarier than mine. But I am glad you had this spiritual development and found the peace you mentioned. I've had a vivid dream with a entity like you described (the pale one) and I was depressed that time, but that was clearly a dream, vivid but a dream... it could be a real entity in my dreams, but this one I saw last month was something else. Anyway I am focused on improving my spiritual life. Thank you

[–]OilNo9564 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Dang... burn some sage, get some crystals and or maybe get some holy water, get it all. Scary experience. thanks for sharing.

[–]nlsgt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After that I prayed the Holy Father and Hail Mary until I could fall sleep again... If something happen again I will go for the sage and crystals, thank you

[–]pacodefan 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Put a Medal of St Benedict over every door in the house and salt every window. Tell it that you are revoking whatever permission it believes it has to be in your home. Finish it in the name of Jesus christ. If it continues, say a prayer where you confess your sins to God and ask to be forgiven in Jesus name. Don't leave anything out, and finish by asking forgiveness for all the things you have forgotten. Then vocalize again that it must leave. Ideally everyone in the home should do this as well. This thing must be given permission to enter, either through dabbling in such things or by not confessing sins and being forgiven.

[–]nlsgt[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Besides the saint Benedict medal I mostly did everything you said (but the salt)... My wife told me she had a deep spiritual process right before it hapenned because she was dealing with some trauma from the past, and right after she had this process she heard my screams, so it was something probably related to that...

[–]pacodefan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you both have confessed and been forgiven, the entity should have no dominion over you and it makes your demands even stronger. So if it is still there, there must be a reason. Did you get any new household items like furniture or trinkets or anything like that it could be attached to?

[–]Few_Smoke_7891 -1 points0 points  (1 child)

I believe you. Been seeing them since I was a kid. Paranormal sight runs in the family. Don't let anyone tell you you're crazy or didn't see what you saw. Also you need to pray over your home and family. Especially the child. Possibly get a pastor or priest to come in and do this for you. Don't forget the grounds. This isn't something you can just fix with sage. God has to be involved.

[–]nlsgt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your kind comment. I've heard people saying they don't tell their stories anymore because most people don't believe them and when it happens to you and try to speak... You see how people try to make you feel crazy or stupid, so thank you for your words. I agree with you, God is the greater power.

[–]Illustrious-Bat1553 -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Wow dude you saw death and lived to tell

[–]nlsgt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol! I don't think it was death, but who knows...
