#tulpamancing

A project of my friend, called SwitchCounter, is finally released!

It’s a website made specifically for and by Tulpamancers, to log a system’s switches and get nice graphs of when who was switched in.

Check it out, and please, spread the word!

so ive decided to name them autumn, their physical for now is kinda like an anthro bunny plushie. for the head voice i imagine a soft, high pitch. for gender i honestly have no clue-

Today, and after arising out of a rather lengthy and ... Not really intended hiatus, I want to share a little experience we had yesterday evening, with some friends.

First of all: I’ve told two of my closest friends (as well as my sister) about my two Tulpas. One of them got interested in the topic and now has his own, but the other person was also very accepting.

Secondly: Pens. To be more specific, differently-colored ball point pens. It may seem like a simple trick, but being able to visually show who is switched in by using a very common object, such as a pen clipped to your shirt, is REALLY helpful sometimes. And what’s best is that everyone else won’t know what the pen is for, so accidentally being “caught” this way is ... Nearly impossible. Since we’ve been switching more in the last few weeks, this trick has come in really handy.

Right, so, yesterday evening me and those two friends went to play lasertag, to celebrate my birthday! (Hooray for me //>.<//) However, I had forgotten my Pens! And as we drove back, one of the most hilarious conversations ever ensued as both of my friends tried to figure out who they had spent the afternoon with >:D

Anyhow, we have some good news to present! Firstly, my christmas presents are really great, like ... I got a precision tool drill. Yeah I’m a nerd, but it’s really cool. More robot stuff, yay X3 (Also, did you know there’s a book from the creator of XKCD? :3)

Secondly, Neira and Mesh are currently beginning to noticably separate themselves from me!  Now I am not sure how to describe this ... As with many tulpa things it is an extremely subjective experience. However, basically ... I can let go of them pretty much completely, and they’ll act freely by themselves.  It’s like possession... You have to relax yourself completely to the point of no longer actively thinking about doing stuff with your body, and letting the tulpa take over. However right now they ALSO are (as surprising as this is) quite dependent on me, and I seem to have to concentrate on ... not concentrating much on them without loosing focus?  As stated before: Hard to explain.

So, as many of you may have noticed, I haven’t been appearing on your dashboard for quite a while! Don’t worry, nothing catastrophic has happened that kept me away - in fact, the thing that is occupying a lot of my time the last few weeks is something I was looking forward to for a while!

In the recent time a lot has changed for me in some ways, but I am quite happy with how it went ^-^

First of all, my Tulpas are doing very well! Like, oh my gosh my wonderland is getting to the stages where it feels like a lucid dream! Yes I spend lots time there X3 And even apart from that we are doing good better and better. Their voices sound strong and they are probably quite separate persons by now! Oh, and I can feel then sometimes and all that… Ahhh~ Its great :3

I started a… How could I translate it… Early studies? Mind me, I still am a normal student, but my school offered me to attend to one course of my choice at a university nearby! I chose “Introduction to artificial intelligence”, a quite nice topic that I did enjoy learning. However, sadly the course was two times a week and coupled with long drives, and for some reason other things kept interfering and… In the end I stopped. It was nice learning about tree search and causality thought :3

The other thing that happened was that my school changed the time of my sports course from lessons 7/8 to 9/10, leaving me to come home at 5:30 each Monday and overall just making it an even more annoying day D:

Oh, but now the main reason for my absence? My robot! I am now officially going to take part in the RoboCup contest, Line Secondary! My school approved of the ideas and I was extremely busy getting the robot working, printing tons of parts and programming and whatnot! You can see the results on https://www.github.com/Xasin/Hexa-Bot :3 Its a Omniwheel Drive design with three stepper motors and it’s 100% self built by me!
