What's the closest thing we have to psychic abilities and/or magic? I'm not talking about what we can build and use, I'm talking about what we can do with our own bodies.

They're making things you can control with concentration. The Japanese made some stupid cat ears that respond to brain activity.

Give that some time to develop.

And I know that doesn't fit your criteria. Fuck your criteria.

Body language, facial recognition and contextual understanding.

I mean the fact that we extrapolate the veracity of a person's statement simply from observation I find to be quite exhilarating. And not just lie detection, but intentions as well. We subconsciously gain an understanding from a situation by simple observation. Like "Oh they must be dating because they are a certain distance apart from each other and the expression on their faces." Now, obviously this isn't done consciously, but the fact that it's not I find to be amazing.

Do you like people or are you a sad aspie? :P

Well my disposition towards people fluctuates, but I'm not a sad aspie... If that answers your question.

>> No.3292510

if you shift your awareness to a certain part of your body, you get a staticy/fuzzy feeling in it.

i don't even know why, but it's awesome.
