What are Spiritual Scams? How to protect yourself from Spiritual Frauds
Spirituality is a way to connect your soul with god. But nowadays many frauds are happening in the name of spirituality, spiritual scams are also a part of it. Today we can see many psychic readers and tarot card readers on social media. They told you they will help you to find a job, help in marriage, and many more personal things. Afterward, they will assign you inappropriate tasks like asking for your mobile numbers, email id, and bank details. Please do not share these details with unknown persons because they are spiritual scammers. Spiritual scams are a way to harm the feelings of a spiritual person. There are many types of spiritual scams like blessing scams, fake psyche and tarot card readers, and telephonic psyches.
How to protect yourself from spiritual Scams ➖
Today's life is very busy. We spend much more time on social media and social media platforms are major places of spiritual scams. Because social media is the best place to connect with people. Spiritual scammers send you a message that connects to your feelings and emotions and you get trapped in it. But we need to understand this is a spiritual scam.
Do not share your personal details and other major information. Do not upload your bank details on social media. Because spiritual scammers are always spiritual hackers. Hackers are very powerful in today's digital life. Here are some points to know more about spiritual scams ➖
1. Social media accounts- Social media platforms are a major part of spiritual scams because everyone has mobile phones and desktops. Spiritual scammers find those people's accounts who are spiritual and religious. Spiritual scammers ask you about your problems or promise to give you solutions. If you tell them about your problems they demand money to solve them. You give them money or get your other details, from which your bank account can also be opened. So don't trust everyone on social media.
2. Old and traditional myths - Spirituality is the best way to find inner peace. But in spirituality, there are many traditional myths. In our lives, a lot of traditional spiritual scams and Worship change our lives and luck. But that is not true. God creates some challenges in our life and they also provide solutions for every problem. Whatever has been written in our life, we will get it but at the right time. We won't get anything before time. But we forget this thing or become greedy. Why do we fall prey to spiritual scammers? Once you get caught in spiritual scams, there is no way to come out from spiritual scams.
3. Stay away from Online deals - Do not pay money to psychic readers on behalf of spirituality. Spiritual scammers have a lot of techniques with which they steal your personal and professional information and we don't even know what happened to us. Do not make any online deal with any unknown person or send money to any unknown person on the basis of spiritualism.
Here are some signs of Spiritual scams you need to know ➖
1. If the spiritual advisor forces you to pay a large amount of money and forces you to make repeated payments for their services.
2. If they are talking about any fear and mishap that happened in your past life, then it is a spiritual scam. 3. Spiritual scammers talk about your upcoming life and say your upcoming life is very beautiful.This is a scam because the future is invisible, no one sees the future life.
4. Spiritual scammers talking about your financial conditions. They share a small task and say if you complete the task your financial conditions become stronger.
5. Spiritual scammers demand that you do not depend on anyone and only do what they tell you.
6. Spiritual scammers play with your feelings and emotions. So don't share your feelings and emotions with unknown persons.
7. Spiritual scammers make you uncomfortable and confused so that you believe only in what they say.
How Does Spiritual Scams works ➖
Spiritual scams promise you to , they are always with you and help you become successful. Spiritual scammers tell you that what you are doing is absolutely true. If you follow the wrong path or hurt someone's religious feelings then they say that you are right. Spiritual scammers do not have any feelings and fears. Nowadays people take any matter as true without seeing or listening to it or give their reactions without saying anything. Scammers take advantage of such situations and trap us.

So what have we learned? A charming rodent can be one of the most powerful tools in a technosavior's pocket. As Nature reported, Colossal is now valued at $10 billion. And what has Colossal produced so far? A hairy mouse that kind of already exists, and a slew of press releases on plans to de-extinct not just mammoths, but also animals like dodos and thylacines. The announcement of the woolly mouse will no doubt rake in even more capital, which was presumably the point and which will probably benefit its investors more than it will a putative, chimerical mammoth. When a company trying to sell itself calls something a "breakthrough," you don't have to believe them.
Gentle Tumblrfolk, I know we're all desperate for good news and that we all love cute, fluffy critters. But this "mammoth mouse" thing is absolute flim flam.
Please click and read the linked article. Sabrina Imbler (who is a great science journalist) does an excellent job explaining how science journalism works nowadays (unfortunately), and how almost no one paid attention to Nature's news story on it, which is what good journalism should be doing for a sensational claim like this.
#trust me this IS my circus and these ARE my monkeys#I KNOW how this works and she is 100% right#science#wooly mouse#mammoth mouse#de extinction#genetic engineering#scicomm#scams#flim flam#woolly mouse#my stuff

Odysseus with his head in his wife's lap, happily not paying attention to anything, humming one of athenas song and carving something
Some random guy: your majesty----
Odysseus: not bothering to sit up: whatever my wife decided is fine.
#the odyssey#epic the musical#Odysseus#Penelope#Odypen#Post-canon my beloved#Odysseus tried to hold court exactly one time before he 1. Realized he's very out of date with everything and#2. Remembered that these meetings sucked so much#Odysseus then quickly climbed into his wife's lap and was like penelopes been ruling for 20 years she's got this#The first time someone tried to insist that it wasn't acceptable for penelope to answer ody nearly killed the guy#Nobody tried to force the issue after that#The only time odysseus sits up to contribute is to be like 'no no we can take that route now I killed the monster that lived there years ag#This is not to say he isn't listening and paying attention! He is! He's just scoping everybody's out#Noticing who's more pushy when they're trying to deal with penelope than they are with him#He's got twenty years of politics to catch up on! And he's going to be sneaky about it#Odysseus post return gaining a reputation for being uninvolved and uncaring only to pull the rug out from underneither the other person#Penelope is a okay with this for many many reasons#First off her system is one of beauty and the fact that her husband didn't spend all her hard work to take back over the second he came bac#Is rare and penelope is grateful everyday for who she married#Second she gets to show off look at how well she did odysseus look at how clever she is ody ody watch as I scam these people isn't that hot#(It is and yes of course odysseus was watching)#Penelope enjoying how odysseus lays out over her like a lazy lion#It scratches her possessive side to show him off like this and she gets to play with his hair#Telemachus attending some of these meetings to learn (tm) and spending the whole time deeply embarrassed#Odypen being 🥰🤝 rat bastards in love

I've come to realize that to me, g-d is the recipient of the love I have for others that I can't give, and that's why I've always resonated with the concept of B'tzelem Elohim. I cannot show my love to every single person - it's impossible. But we are all in the image of Him, all in His essence, and so I direct the excess to Him. We are all part of the reflection of g-d. The love we have for each other is, to me, the love we have for g-d.
#jumblr#b'tselem elohim#personal thoughts tag#this isn't a Correct interpretation of g-d or being made in His image by the way. as always this is just what works for me#despite everything love is still real#the more i grow up the more i realize how much of a scam isolation and misanthropy are#unfortunately though i physically can't express love for Everyone (impossible)#i feel like connecting with g-d and directing that love to Him is about as close as i can get#and like... look while actions take precedent over faith i still like to talk about g-d and what g-d means to others#it's easier to talk about concepts on here than actions anyway#anyway love is real. anyone who tells you otherwise is trying to sell you something#honestly i don't think i would have as strong a belief in g-d if i didn't care about others and love humanity#people bring me closer to g-d i think. heaven is a place on earth and all of that#and of COURSE other religions have this concept. however please consider i am a few weeks away from being jewish (not mad)

#kirby#daily kirby#my art#digital#hal laboratory#nintendo#so like aliexpress used to have a terrible reputation in terms of like quality and truth in advertising and such right#but like. amazon and etsy are swamped with bootleggers and dropshippers now too#so I figured like. can't be any worse right?#besides I know how to double check descriptions and measurements and examine images critically#I've shopped shady sites before like back when banggood was the only place to get those cute diy miniature kits#(now you can get them at regular craft store chains which is Wild to me)#but I have never opened aliexpress because everyone was always just like 'Never Go There'#(but then again these days folks are doing massive temu hauls left and right)#(so clearly norms have changed even if common perception of aliexpress has not)#I open it up and I immediately find the rug I spent an entire day hunting for unsuccessfully earlier in the month.#and a ton of incredible bootleg kirbs.#and a style of hair clip I've been hunting for for *years*.#soooo I spent the entire day in a pastel fugue lol#(I have not spent any money yet but I'm probably gonna)#(so like I can't confirm that you're not gonna get scammed or whatever just like. use common sense.)#(don't trust sale prices read descriptions/reviews when available and try to avoid work stolen from independent artists)#(that's usually gonna be on printed stuff like phone cases and posters)#(and tbh I have no qualms with stolen official art as long as the quality is as advertised)#(but there's a big difference between stealing from Multinational Corporation and stealing from Some Guy)#anyway done rambling now <3#favorites

I recently got to access the objects in the hgss safari zone and, after checking the serebii guide, there's apparently a decent amount of dragon-type variety offered there? Here's the full list: dratini, dragonair, gabite, trapinch, vibrava, bagon, and shelgon.
Two of them immediately caught my eyes, because who was the only notable character in hgss that used some of those dragons in a pokemon battle?

With the recent pokemon lore revealing that dragon tamers have tight bonds with each other's regional clans, we can easily assume that lance got his gabite and bagon through those connections. Or, with champion cynthia and steven making cameos in this game, lance could also have gotten the dragons traded from those two, perhaps as a league-sponsored or simply just friendly trades.
But, imagining lance going to the safari zone after he lost to the hgss champion because he was determined to make his team stronger, only to suffer through waiting ~100 days for those two baby dragons to show up and failing to catch them multiple times in a row is way more hilarious, though 🤭
#i'm not sure if the “pokemon will show if you wait X days after putting the required objects” rule actually works though#because i caught a croagunk and carnivine the second after i was done putting the required forest objects to lure them in#BUT my point is: imagine one day you're chilling in the safari zone then BOOM. champion lance walks in with his cape and dragonite 😭#and he turns out to suck at catching the pokemon in the safari ball as the rest of the visitors 😭 he can't tell if throwing food or mud#is doing any good to his catch rate 😭 and he'll end up spending LOTS of poke dollars because he kept running out of safari balls 😭#warden baoba is both happy because a *champion* visited his establishment but also what if lance thinks the safari zone is a scam with how#difficult it is to catch any pokemon with the balls? 😭 he'll come out victorious in the end but only after he gets sunburned to hell 😭#pokemon#champion lance#elite four lance#pokemon hgss#pokemon heartgold and soulsilver#johto#pokemon lance#salamence#garchomp
