You’re not throwing them at your enemies hard enough.
What about the healing powers of enjoying yourself with a hobby like collecting a bunch of minerals and just looking at them?
Surely, having a hobby can improve some people’s mental health.
That depends. Is your hobby overrun by charletans using your ignorant faith in easily disproven claims to sell false promises of a better life? Because not only is that detrimental to your mental and financial health, but it is bad for society as a whole as it erodes trust in science and knowledge itself.
People who like shiny crystals decorating their homes aren’t a problem. People who spend money they don’t have on magic because government doctors are trying to put chips in your brain are a real and existential problem.
Hey, some of those are polestones, and are perfectly capable of storing Stormlight! Just gotta wait for the next hightstorm
Devil’s advocate time: the placebo effect is incredibly powerful, and for many people it’s all that’s needed.
I’m all for this but it’s a slippery slope. People seem to go from using a crystal to get over a small psychological road block to thinking that vaccines cause autism real quick.
There are a bunch of crystals that do shit, like molly and meth.
Have you tried eating any of those before posting this?

It’s really hard to argue with superb logic and science like this.
Actually, that’s not true. Fluorite has a slight healing power for your teeth.
Ok, fuck, you got me. Now I have to admit that crystals do have healing power.
Also Quartz is used extensively in electronics, including medical devices that help people with healing or managing their ailments.
Florite the magic Cristal of dental hygien and quartz the magic Cristal of electricity
Crystals that exhibit piezo powers also get my stove lit.
@ickplant That’s completely wrong. Each rock/mineral has a hidden skill. Once acquired, you have less money.
Some crystals like torbernite and asbestos have a special skill too, called “radiation poisoning” and “lung cancer”
Great guide, could you tell me what sort of benefits I might expect from Selenite?
You get the benefit of having a rock with cool optical properties! It’s clear! It’s chatoyant! it’s like a natural fibre optic cable!
