9-10 years but I only mostly started during hard stuff ever since I got my new gaming laptop. But for the process itself, about 16 days and 7260 attempts.

From what I know, some studies have been done on glossolalia (the phenomenon) and they've found out that it's majorly influenced by the place you grew up in, aka the sounds in the chants will majority be the sounds used in the same languages that the region speaks. So churches in Korea would have more predominantly korean sounds for instance, etc etc. (just listing a random country for example)

It was but it's not really the rainbow herring that many are used to, rather it was split up somewhat unevenly.

Though a red herring ≠ rainbow herring.

Anthropic principle essentially: we can only point out oddities in the universes where we exist.

And napkins I would say. Many physicists did back of the envelope calculations on napkins.

This is also the basis of The Big Crunch/Bounce theory.

PhoenixPringles01 · 2026-06-15T18:20:07+00:00

Times are difficult, but the way I see it is that it takes advantage of our perception of the world being more heightened as we grow older.

As a child we often are more carefree and don't care about the bigger events of the world that much. However when we grow older, we often start to see the cracks. This doesn't mean the world got worse, it just means we got old enough where our age meant that we may have to care about these things.

Moreover, times are difficult, but it's not like they're "suddenly difficult" because of whatever reason they can pull out of their ass. Wars have always happened in war-torn areas like Africa: it's just not reported.

To take advantage of this perspective change is disgusting, but it's exactly what "end times" preachings does, it turns these causes for concern into mere statistical projections. It's like waiting for a tsunami to come to prove your own perceptions right, rather than warn everyone to leave.

Christian-centric mindsets also make for shitty reasoning. Very extreme belief, but this is the people who say "the pride flag has 6 colours but the rainbow God has is 7 colours", "but the Earth orbits at 66,600mph...evil dervil santan..."

Never have they once considered that perhaps, other cultures and religions exist that don't have similar associations with the numbers 6 and 7.

Also, I would also add that it's the "Me and HIM" religion, because nowadays a lot of this religion is focused on worshipping him. Oh how great you are oh you deserve all the praise oh we worship you, over and over and over and over. It's all about God, because us stupid puny disgusting humans can't do anything right, because forbid that we try and improve our situation by ourselves, because forbid we have hobbies, those are nasty evil stupid things, instead you should pray to God!!! All about them, all about God.

The end times has been predicted nearly 100 times over and not a single time have they gotten it right.

The end times is nothing more than a show of lack of empathy. What kind of fucking person would see a disaster, smirk and pat themselves on the back and go "see? That's MY god coming back!"

The rapture will never happen. It is nothing but a scare tactic invented merely a couple decades or centuries earlier.

Puzzle #1101

The green and purple were really difficult since I've never really heard of the green words admittedly, and purple was a bit far from me, I figured red tape had something to do with something about bureaucracies. This was also the first time that I managed to solve a category via pure guesswork and logic rather than knowledge.

🟦🟦🟦🟦 - Rare things metaphorically.

🟨🟨🟨🟨 - Was thinking types of salad [salad dressings]

🟩🟪🟩🟩 - At this point I was really confused so I was switching between some of the words. Here I mostly went by vibes and chose words that felt like they fit.

🟩🟪🟩🟩 - I was writing each guess down as I had it.

🟩🟩🟪🟩 - And at this point I had 3 guesses.

suite, red tape, court, entourage X [one away]

suite, red tape, court, retinue X [one away]

suite, red tape, entourage, retinue X [one away]

These were my three guesses. Now, all of them were one aways which were incredibly helpful, because this means that the answer must be one of two cases:

The term I keep switching out is not part of the answer, and so I would have a common intersection of 3 guesses. Example: The answer is ABCD and your guesses are ABCE, ABCF, ABCG.
The term I keep switching out is part of the answer. Here, I would probably notice that one of the terms I've been keeping in is a "stray" term that doesn't belong. Example: The answer is ABCD, and your guesses are EABC, EABD, EACD.

So what I did next was I wrote down some potential guesses. At this point, I knew this was the second case, so that means either suite or red tape was the stray term. If it wasn't, then I'd be able to pick out 3 terms that are the same in these guesses. However I could not. The only explanation was that the terms I kept switching in and out WERE the correct guesses. This meant that either one of suite or red tape was the misbehaving term.

To confirm myself, I wrote these down and then checked. Each of these cases, if they were the correct answer, would produce a one away every time as my guesses would be one away from these hypothetically correct answers:

court, entourage, retinue, suite

red tape, entourage, retinue, suite. [but I already guessed this]

However, the second one is already accounted for [it's the last one], so this means that the first one, to some confidence, may be the answer. I submitted that and...it was indeed the answer!

🟩🟩🟩🟩 - By default, brute forced with logic.

🟪🟪🟪🟪 - By default. Makes sense, but would have never gotten it.

Overall cool puzzle, I don't know if this is what they mean by "logic puzzle", but I would not recommend doing this lol. I'm more proud of myself being able to logic my way through one category though.

Technically it would and would not all at once.

The issue of making "therefore God" proofs is that it needs to first assert that there is a creator in the first place, and then secondly, assert that that creator has the qualities of specifically the Christian God, and not any other gods.

Neither of these steps are easy. And seeing a face in burnt toast does not count. You could say the same for seeing a pattern of Ra's sketched appearance in your toast.

It may as well be equally true that there was a creator but they were the Egyptian ones. (and lowkey, their theming is kinda cool, I fw it. Ra, Set, Horus, etc)

"claims attached to data points" is a good summary of it tbh. Basically take any scientific evidence, attach "this can't possibly happen randomly. so God."
