The "Wavestopper" costs $88 Free Shipping!
(I checked. It is not an April Fools joke. Selling to people with "brain fog" feels a little predatory to me.)
I wonder if the name "Havn" is a take on the "Havana syndrome" thing where Russia or whoever has been attacking US government employees, diplomats, etc. with an unknown weapon that uses some kind of radio waves (supposedly the CIA has now obtained one and is analyzing it, per 60 Minutes)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Havana_syndromeMaybe they're hoping some kind of subliminal messaging on a word people have vaguely heard in this context before will boost sales.

There aren't any common waves that could hurt your brain.
BUT
If you want to know about something invisible, that most people don't know about that can impact your health in persistent mild but still bad ways? Look up "infrasound" --
I always travel with my bull elephant, Stompie. He's irritated by socially improper infrasound sources, so if there's anyone zapping me I can tell. Can't necessarily tell who they were, after he's done with them.

@futurebird At some freqencies finfoil hats seems to actually amplify the signal

Now this I buy more than the 88 having a meaning in this case. (88 can be a dogwhistle... I just don't think it is this time?)

The real "wavestopper" that will protect your brain is a robust ad blocker, and get off of facebook.
If I say that ads give out brainrot waves would people be more excited about this?
@futurebird ads genuinely cause palpable constant psychic damage and the capitalists are making it harder and harder to avoid it. every billboard i see makes me wish i had a rocket launcher

@futurebird Btw you can get the fabric off Ali for much cheaper. Not silver tho (neither is this I bet), but will stop 100% waves lol. Could be used as a hat I guess (intended for shielding electronics, but for the poor droids among us...).
...and reading the replies, someone pointed out that it might come in handy for emergency phone hiding.

@futurebird
Oh... I didn't even notice the 88 thing. I could see that also being deliberate, knowing their probable targets. -
@elight @futurebird Goodness, no! If you'd want to be doing mind control then those would not be the correct sort of hat for you to wear!
edited to add: Your thoughts would not be able to go anywhere other than inside your own head!@MossyQuartz oh! You use a different kind of mind control hat?????

related: resonance frequency of the human eyeVery interesting. Something I hadn't looked into before, but relevant these days. Thanks for flagging it.

@futurebird I like mine better. Much more stylish.
Now I really want one of those.

I'm interested in noise pollution and light pollution. Light pollution is horrible for insects. (and birds) Noise pollution is bad for people.
We could have less loud, dark at night (but still safe) cities and towns.

@futurebird if a faraday’s cage is not grounded it can end up amplifying the signal #funfacts

@CStamp @futurebird It's a magnetic bracelet for the Rona era. Mostly scam, but also basically a harmless bit of tat that makes people feel happy.
@count_01 @CStamp @futurebird Some people just are wired that way. This product is like... "Ok... you wanna comply with your brain wiring? Now you can without people staring at you for believing in something that lacks scientific consense."

@futurebird @oldclumsy_nowmad @muddle RF *can* hurt you if its high enough power, but that’s generally limited to labs and microwave ovens, not what’s emitted by cell phones
…or anywhere outdoors. you might get a sunburn

@helvick @futurebird I got it from ARSE. Not sure if they’re selling them right now, but they’ve always got fun things. (I like to buy their refrigerator magnets to surreptitiously leave on my friends’ refrigerators and see how long it takes them to notice.)

Me, too. I worry a lot about the impacts our light and noise have on birds and insects. Not to mention pesticides, wildfires, "produced water", and structures (windows, guy wires, turbines) etc. Makes me sick to think about what we're doing to this wonderful living World.

@futurebird And stay off Fox News

You mean like... somehow keeping it from getting out of the hat and spreading? Like it's a brainrot containment hat?
hmm?
I think one would need some kind of noise canceling face mask to do that.
@futurebird The rot is out of the hat. We're late. Sorry.
