Reminder that there used to be a $1,000,000 prize available for anyone who could display any sort of supernatural powers that remained unclaimed for 20 years. The challenge rules required that both parties agree upon the test setup, and several people actually tried to claim it and all failed. It astounds me that anyone still believes in this nonsense and that it seems to be becoming even more popular to believe in literal magic and other supernatural idiocy.

I am at the point where if anyone, ever, for any reason, asks me what my astrological sign is, I stop communicating with them.

They always turn out to be irresponsible, narcissistic idiots every time.

An exception would be if this interaction is taking place completely within the confines of an actually defined fantasy world like a video game or ttrpg.

But real life? People who actually believe there is, or could potentially be anything to astrology?

Dangerous morons.

Ophiuchus is usually my answer

This is the funny troll answer that tests whether or not the astrologer has modern, up to date levels of dedication to their woo woo bs.
