the more I think about it the more convinced I am that this was likely intentional by the artist and honestly fair play 🫡

checks out! you're usually trying to induce theta waves (4-7 Hz) for suggestibility, but 2-3 Hz is in the range of delta waves, which are associated with deep sleep/REM. so it locks you in place even moreso than a hypnofile that's trying to get you in a place halfway between wake and sleep

oooh wow thats a fun video~ lotsss of hypnofuckery here even if they didn't intend it

the changing spiral keeps your focus, and the pulsing background (especially synced to the music) is at 2-3 Hz ish so there's some brainwave entrainment going on even if it's not quite in the ideal range for hypno

I know this is a joke but for anyone like me who is interested in this procedure and runs across this she would in fact not be the first! The most common procedure is PPV (penile preserving vagino/vulvoplasty) but there are also options for afab individuals. Google 'salmacian'

god trueee its *so* hot when you realize how much you've been changed

Unethical hypnotists can use these altered states like mind control by slowly pushing limits once initial subject cooperation is secured, which is why it's very important to have safeties, practice subject agency, and ensure you *truly* trust your hypnotist before trancing with them.

Adding to this that the 'difficult to leave on your own' bit is critical.

The old refrain is that hypnosis can't make you do anything you don't want to do and that's true, but it can 100% change what you want, esp. over time.

guy who brought the trans flag we iwo jima’d described himself as “yeah i was pretty neutral about trans people, think i still am honestly, but these people are being so goddamn weird about it that i gotta get off the fence”

every new day has the chance of being the day you meet someone who changes your life, but you can never see them coming until theyre there. all we can do is keep our eyes open and our hope alive until we find them

tbh im just a puppy but i still know the feeling

but the other thing about owners is you never know when youre gonna meet someone who wants to keep you and you wanna be kept by? and then when you do things get better pretty quick
