Every so often I'll see one of those "numbers accounts" on X/itter. They're convinced to the point of illness over numbers mattering, and how adding up the points score of the alphabet will unlock certain truths about the world. It's sad, by many definitions, to imagine how they're trapped by such nonsense, but if they're always online then they're going to feed off similar accounts all the time.
Nothing every comes from it, either. You go through all the sums and it's never concluded or explained. It's just numbers, swimming in a constant fog of them, drowning in maths that go nowhere.
It's both tragic and laughable.

It is isn't it. He sees horrible incident in the news and starts attaching random numbers to kids and places that 'prove' it's something to do with Satan and the Jesuits. What a warped worldview.
The rest of his public Facebook is pictures of buses.
I'm saying nothing.

santa paws, do you ever come to the ghetto?
including this route in Poland?
they have apparently changed the route number now, they got fed up with fundamentalists complaining.
round here, the buses have a video screen which is supposed to show information including the next stop. If it's not properly registering where the bus is or what it's doing, there's a default message 'Hello - welcome on board' with the 'hello' being in large letters. One day I travelled on one where the screen resolution was on the blink, and it was just showing 'Hell' which was slightly concerning, but the bus did end up in Reading...

I think it's numerology bullshit. Tinfoil shitheads ascribe certain numbers with special significance, and use contrived addition and subtraction (with occasion multiplication if their mathematical skills are up to the task) in order to "decode" a particular event. It never occurs to them that one could use this "method" to link literally any two or more entirely arbitrary things together. I could use "numerology" to "prove" that it's the conspiracy twats who are the deluded sheeple being manipulated, but of course they would never accept that because it ain't really about the "methodology", it's about affirming the conclusion which has already been decided. The method is just window dressing even if they'd never admit it.

If you take this number, multiply by a another number, divide by another, add some more and subtract a few more, you can get that number. Really makes you think, doesn’t it

So many particulars. So many questions.
its a bona fide old nonsense though there is that. Mystics and err others have obsessed over numbers since pythagoras and his cult. and before no doubt. Babylonians.

Which is ironic because the ancients genuinely made some interesting discoveries in mathematics. It's called the Pythagorean theorem but he was in fact copying his homework off the Babylonians.

How can it have started in the US? They didn't have a Magna Carta they've got no power been passed down to them
I think they sometimes actually cite Magna Carta.

decades ago there were rightwing groups calling themsleves "posse comitatus" which claimed to recognize no government above the county level, imagining themselves to be successors to the posses of western history. Posse comitatus - Wikipedia

How do I change this 'custom title' thing then?
The Americans seem to hold Magna Carta in far more reverence than we (UK types) do. I think it's because documents hold a much greater place in their national self image than they do in ours. Think of the reverence given to both the Declaration of Independence and their constitution*. They, Americans that is, reach back to things like the Mayflower Compact and the Fundamental Orders of Connecticut which play a similar role in their national myth as the royals do in ours. So they see a line constitutionally from Magna Carta to their current structures in a way we just don't . It's no accident that the Runnymede monument was paid for by the American Bar Association.How can it have started in the US? They didn't have a Magna Carta they've got no power been passed down to them
(*both great works by the way, if you actually read them, and forget that the people who wrote them assumed they only applied to white men)

Obviously amateurs at the FOTL game. If only they’d changed their names to Detry of the Wogermans or The Human Entity known as Laralynne, the coppers would have been powerless to detain them.
