So, bout as much evidence as Dark Matter.

I used to not believe in Dark Matter, but during a recent shroom trip I saw that it existed and that my being was even composed of it. That to an extent all of us are made of equal parts matter and dark matter, and the parts of us that are made of Dark Matter are the reason why we have paranormal experiences, for they're actually quite normal experiences just happening to us on a level where we can't see all the details.

And if I were the Spirit Science guy I'd walk away fully believing THAT.

They don't "communicate" faster than light, the wave function itself is non-local and collapses non-locally.

Personally it was always "Berenstain Bears" I know it was because I watched the Nick Jr. show as a kid, and the ads would use the "BerenstAin" name

The Mandela Effect is interesting because while I do remember the correct version of most events (Pikachu did not have a black stripe, Rich Uncle Pennybags did not have a Moncole, Nelson Mandela did not die in prison, "No, I AM your father"), there are still some that I straight up know did not happen the way I remember them.

For example: Fruit of the Loom had a Cornucopia, I remember because it was the first time I had ever seen one. The only reason I knew what a cornucopia was, was due to it being on the underwear logo.

That said I have heard about memory being incredibly suggestible, studies about people who were tricked into believing they had been on a Hot Air Balloon when they had not or seeing Bugs Bunny at Disney World despite that not being a Disney character. So Mandela Effect could be bullshit.

There are some stories that interest me from time to time.

Like in a Youtube Video discussing Mandela Effect, James Rolfe better known as the Angry Video Game Nerd, had always remembered the pay off to "My face on the one dollar bill", being that the money Joker gives out at the end of Tim Burton's Batman movie was counterfeit with the Joker's face on it... But that's never actually revealed in the movie.

The reason that interests me, is that the prop money DID have Jack Nicholson's face on it, but it's something you can only find out by reading about the development of the movie as it's never shown to the camera clearly enough for you to tell. Making it interesting that James remembered a factual detail he couldn't possibly remember from watching the movie.

Now it's easy to say "Well James just read about the prop money being Joker themed and got mixed up about where he heard the money from"

My dad is even more interesting, for reasons beyond it being someone I know

My dad claims he is a magnet for this kind of phenomenon, claims that the "Time People" are always messing with him, and that he regularly experiences time out of order. The thing is though he might actually be right.

We've had times where we're talking and he says something that has nothing to do with what we're talking about and makes no sense at all, and I'm like "Are you okay?"

Like one time I was just checking in on him, and he starts rambling about Dr. Manhattan from Watchmen for some reason... I just assume he's tired, since he works two jobs and all., often coming home from one just to change uniforms and go to the other.

And then months later, we're talking about weird experiences we've had while high (He's a stoner, I'm not but I partake from time to time), and I mentioned that sometimes I "see things" before they happen, but I can't stop them from happening, then when they happen... It's like.. I know they're going to happen, but I can't prevent them happening, and I react like I'm "supposed to"

And he says the thing he said before about Dr. Manhattan, referencing the scene where he's on Mars and knows his lady friend is going to tell him something, she tells him, and he still acts surprised, because he was SUPPOSED to be surprised...

It's the same thing he said only now there's context for it, and then our heads start hurting and we flashback to the conversation where he had no reason to say it.

Freaky stuff happens to him.

The weirdest one though, is one time he straight up told me that he was from another universe.

See I don't live with my dad, he's a state a way and I only sometimes see him. Last time I saw him it was for my cousin's graduation, and he says to me, he's not my dad, he's a version of him from another universe.

Because he never married my stepmother, and I'm confused because he did and they have a daughter, my half-sister. He tells me a story of how years ago he screwed up on a big date way back when, and never got over her. So he went out drinking with some friends of his at this restaurant, and he sees her at the bar, he's had a few drinks and they tell him that he needs to win her back, do this one grand romantic gesture.

Now he's drunk this sounds like a good idea, and he goes up to her, but sees she's with a guy, having a nice time, and decides not to ruin her night. He tells me, that he goes home in tears, his heart broken, and falls asleep alone. The next day, he wakes up and she's in the kitchen, finds that he and her have been married for months, she loves him, and has no recollection of being anywhere last night except home with him. So he just smiles, and accepts that he has been given a gift, and just tells her that it was all a bad dream he had been having.

Creepy story if true. Not sure I believe it, but it's an interesting tale to say the least.

Now, it's possible that my Dad is just fucking with me because he thinks it's funny, but... believe what you want I guess. Maybe my Dad has some kind of undiagnosed schizophrenic disorder or maladaptive day dreaming. I don't know, and I probably never will.

Does it? As far as I am aware, the Big Bang modle only describes how the early universe developed, not how it began.

Well, fair enough then.
