Consider this my introduction post because I haven’t done that yet whoops.
Hi. You can call me Jello. My pronouns are she/they, and I’ve been a shifter for about five years now. I am 22 and discovered shifting a little before I turned 18, but didn’t actively try shifting until the fall of 2020– so yes, I was knee deep in the horrors of shiftok at that point.
I have a degree in Creative Writing and Publishing. It’s kind of cool, being a writer and a shifter. It does make me totally picky about what I script, but it means that the stories I write based off my shifts are gonna be brilliant.
My first ever DR was a One Direction reality (RIP). It was as horrifying as any first script. I have many DRs now, but my mains include Criminal Minds, a Hogwarts one where I am also in a band, and a College Romance type one where I date a professor wait what? I have a bunch more based off other series I love and some based off books. I just started scripting for a reality based off my own novel which is kind of epic.
I have yet to shift to any DR. I may have minishifted once in the sense that I heard my DR but I’ve never opened my eyes anywhere but here. Yes, sounds demotivating as hell. And it was, until I came here. You, shiftblr, have somehow made it all click in my head in a way shiftok could only ever dreamed of. So, thank you.
I think that pretty much sums me up. I would love to yap about any and all my DRs— or really talk about anything. I’ve never really been active in any shifting community so consider this my tentative “hey… how y’all doing?”
Oh, fun fact: I use the same name in about 90% of my DRs. My first name remains the same in all but one DR, and my last name is consistent in all but two? I think? I do that because I think it’s cool, to have this sort of identity that I carry with me throughout my own little multiverse.
Another fun fact: my favourite movie for at least six years of my life has been Coraline. I live and breathe that film. And then suddenly I discovered shifting and it’s just this funny little thing, this silly little connection I find all too intriguing. There are a lot of times where I’ll look back on my life with the knowledge I have now and am hit with this realization that I have been doing this a while, even just in the tiniest of doses, without even knowing it.
Okay, I’ll quit yapping now. Hello and welcome to my page. I don’t know what I’m doing on here but I am enjoying myself immensely.
Jello💖
just a reminder.
decisions you make here or the way you react here in no way can affect your ability to shift to multiple realities.
my brother is dating a shifter this is not a drill she is coming over tomorrow so her and I can hang out and yap about our drs i’ve never been more excited in my life bless my brother for finally having good taste in women

(update again: It happened, I made another post about it here)
Me, a shifter, whenever my CR parents start acting up:

one of my favourite things about both my hogwarts drs is literally Harry Potter himself.
That man is a SLUT. I mean a S L U T.
He was raised by Sirius Black, okay? He is going to be a menace to society and I literally cannot wait— and I’ve known him all my life so you know I will be hearing about everything (and everyone) he does. He will yap in too much detail and I’m honestly here for it.
I need to intro these drs fully because amongst the angst is comical genius and I want to tell you all about it— so stay tuned.
the sisyphus delusion. . . drop the boulder and shift realities.
sisyphus had one job. one brutal, mindless, soul-crunching job. roll the rock up the hill, watch it roll back down, repeat. camus, bless his french-algerian heart, tells us sisyphus is happy because he chooses to be. because he winks at the abyss and says, fine, let’s dance. because the struggle itself is a kind of victory.
alas, sisyphus is not free. he is a hamster in a particularly wheel, finding comfort in his own entrapment. and that is where he and the modern shifter shake hands. the great cosmic irony is that shifters, these darlings of self-willed escape, have turned themselves into their own myth. they are sisyphus reborn, but instead of a rock, they roll their mindset uphill, over and over again. every affirmation, every subliminal, every night spent whispering to the void. an endless exertion, a labour of self-convincing.
it’s not shifting. it’s straining. the difference between them and sisyphus is that at least he had the decency to stop pretending the rock wasn’t real.
shifting should be the rejection of struggle, not its rebranding. but somewhere along the way, it became another mountain, another test, another something-to-be-earned. people talk about shifting like it’s a boss battle, like they have to do enough reality checks, clear enough mental debris, align their subconscious like the planets in some great celestial waiting room. they believe in the rock. they believe in the climb. they are hypnotised by the effort.
but effort is resistance, and resistance is friction, and friction keeps things exactly where they are. loa already taught us this, what you fight, you feed. what you chase, you place ahead of you, always out of reach. shifting is not a process, it’s a decision. it is not a matter of if, it is a matter of when. and 'when' is only ever waiting on you.
so step aside. let the rock roll where it may. stop thinking of shifting as a mountain to scale and start thinking of it as a room you already own. there is no application form. no cosmic bureaucracy keeping you from your desires. no checklist, no gods, no gatekeepers. only you, making your own mythology out of something as simple as stepping through a door.
so, dear sisyphus-in-disguise, put down your affirmations, your desperate notes to the universe, your battle against the self. don’t just push the rock. drop it. and walk into the world that was already waiting for you.
my dr wardrobe gives me butterflies. i fear i was simply built for this level of slay.
you mentioned that you think it's possible to shift with "sheer will" could you tell a little more about it? I grip to things very hard that's just the person that I am, if I could use it to shift instantly that would be perfect
sheer will is exactly what it sounds like.
deciding, completely and absolutely, that you are shifting and leaving no room for doubt.
it’s not about hoping or waiting, it’s about knowing and acting accordingly. if you grip things hard, use that. grip reality like a steering wheel and yank it where you want it to go. refuse to entertain the idea that it won’t work. shifting isn’t delicate; it doesn’t need to be tiptoed around. if you’re someone who latches on, then latch on to the certainty that you are where you want to be.
no hesitation, no second-guessing. just done.
no love life here because my love life at hogwarts is messy enough 🫠
i pinky promise, hand on heart, other hand holding a matchstick about to light this baby up, this is the only shifting post you need. no fluff, no razzle-dazzle, no five-paragraph essays about brainwaves or how you need to do the cha-cha in a lucid dream to make it happen. none of that. i know, i know, you’ve seen a million of these posts before!!!!! they’re all like, ‘just believe, babe!!!!!’ and toss you into the deep end of manifestation tiktok. but i’m serious.
let me break it down: shifting is easy. I KNOW. I KNOW. "emma i've been trying for five years, NOTHING's happening." no, REALLY, you’ve already been doing it. every day. every time you zone out during a lecture, or start daydreaming about a life where you’re waltzing around versailles with marie antoinette or sipping espresso in twin peaks. that feeling !!!!!!! that’s it !!!!!! that’s the first brush of the sandworm under your feet.
the FIRST TRUTH!!!!! you don’t need a method. forget the ladder, the cracking raven, the star charts. sure, they’re cute, but they’re like training wheels. the real power is in knowing. knowing you’ve already got it. you just do it. you’re not asking reality to let you in; you’re telling it where you want to go. AND THEN YOU GO !!!!! SO GO !!!!!
the SECOND TRUTH!!!!! your mind is your arrakis. it is vast, it is hot, it is buzzing with potential. you can plant anything there, and it’ll grow!!!! timelines, dreams, full-on universes. all you need to do is stop overthinking it. shifting isn’t about fighting to make it happen. it’s about leaning back, relaxing, and letting it take you.
think of it like floating in the ocean: the more you try to force it, the harder it gets. but if you let go, trust the waves, you’ll find yourself drifting effortlessly toward where you want to be.
the THIRD TRUTH!!!! you’re already there. no, i’m not being cryptic or trying to sound like a fortune cookie. what you desire.....the reality, the life, the version of yourself you’re dreaming of.......it’s already yours. time and space are silly little concepts for the mortals. you’re a prophet. you’ve already conquered them. movin' on.
you don’t have to prove you’re worthy, you don’t need a cosmic permission slip. you’re already the shaper of the unshapeable. so !!!!!! stop overcomplicating it. how to shift? nr one: know you shift, nr two: you're in your reality. BAM. KABOOM. shifting is easy because you’re the one in charge, and you always have been. don’t think too hard; just be. be the person in the river, sipping iced coffee, pissing out enlightenment. be the person NASA is terrified of because you’re too sustainable. be the person on their vespa, popping wheelies through timelines like a pope on holiday.
you don’t need angel numbers or the moon in the 7th house to tell you it’s working. it’s working because you’re the one making it work.
shifting isn’t about imagining every detail of your dream life; it’s about embodying the feeling of being there. stop doubting yourself. stop checking the clock or waiting for ‘proof.’ the second you decide to shift, it’s done !!!!!
you’re the muad’dib. you’re.... logan roy in a three-piece suit. you’re the sandworm and the storm. now shift!!!!!!!!!!!! go claim your kingdom!!!!!!!
and that pretty much sums me up as a person.
