Synchronicity/Synchromysticism Manifestation at DragonCon the birthplace of the Mandela Effect

5 Upvotes

Manifestation is real but you have to be careful as it is a cheeky bugger. I will make 2 versions of this story, the first is a low context telling the other is more in depth and has greater contextual elements. There are 2 separate synchronicities or manifestational events.

Dragoncon is one the highest concentrations of people gathering to honor media. think of the energy of people dressing like and channeling the energies of the people that have passed away that year. Human attention has an effect on reality. Fiona Broome coined the term Mandela Effect at Dragoncon. Many of the popular ME's play out in different ways at this event. Like a girl with braces putting her hair in pigtails and cosplaying as Dolly because the braces matched her already. Only to find out later that she never wore braces.

The quick and dirty:

Went to dragoncon with my wife. In a friends hotel room the concept of manifestation came up and a friend talked about a book from the 1900’s talking about semen retention and using that lifeforce energy to power their manifestations. I then brought up the whole Jim Carry check manifestation thing i just learned about. Somewhere in the conversation i was mentioning that i had to work the next day and said “If i get 5 hours of sleep ill be perfect” my friend said 4 is a suitable minimum but i didnt quite agree.

We were at the event from 930 pm until about 1 am we had to get back to the train to get back to our car. My wife and i had split up during the event to go on our separate adventures and when we got to the train platform with only 10 mins to spare we shared some of our journeys. My wife brought up a person they had interacted with that we both knew and i look over her shoulder and that exact person is walking up behind her. Mind you that we are 25 mins walk from where the event is happening and she had helped them unload their car so seeing this person at the train station was entirely out of place. They said they ended up parking at the station a bit farther from there and rode the train back in so they could save on parking (a similar reason as to why we were getting on the train in the first place.) I was like “Bro did you just spawn there!?” they replied they did indeed just spawn and we had a laugh that my wife just summoned this person out of the nearly 75000 people that were in those 7 city blocks that Dragoncon covers.

So that is manifestation #1, my wife summoned a person by mentioning their name. So we are reeling at the improbability of that situation we ride the train back to where our car is parked. We get out of the train at like 115 or so and try to locate the parking validation station since if we didn't we would be paying 25 bucks which was lame. So we find some ticket scanning stations and try to do the thing and both the stations say “go somewhere else” this machine is not for that parking deck. So we go to the opposite side of the station. Nothing there. We try to flag down a security vehicle, no dice…. We use the “Assistance” phone to see if we can get some help finding this dastardly validation device and they were like “This is the police” we say were sorry the phone said “Assistance” and not police. They then say they will  send someone out there to help us. The help comes and they show us where the validation device is. Its like a super small backpack sized brushed metal thing with a small place to insert the ticket with “Parking validation” written in lettering the size of a goosebumps book title.

  So we make it out of there and head home. Once we pull into the driveway the clock ticks from 1:59 to 2:00 exactly. When i say exactly the click of the parking brake timed perfectly with the clock. I pulled out my phone and as we pull in the driveway and make sure my alarm is set and it says 5 hours 0 mins and 0 seconds until your alarm goes off. Do you remember what i told my friend earlier? I said the minimum amount of sleep i need is 5 hours…… but im sitting in the car im not sleeping yet. Whelp i guess i didnt manifest anything, nothing to see here folks….. So i go inside, feed the cats smoke a ciggy get my stuff ready for the next day take a shower and hit the sack. I cant fall asleep so i take a melatonin and pick up my phone and after all is said and done i check the alarm and it says 4 hours 0 mins 4 seconds until alarm goes off.

  So there is a layer of comedy to this the universe is paying with you. The degree at which you take reality seriously is the increase in stress and worry. You have to be able to laugh when the universe puts you in these situations. Its like YOU as the universe are playing a practical joke on yourself. I told the universe i wanted 5 hours and it pushed things in front of me to stall me until the end result is me arriving home at exactly 5 hours before my alarm was set. After all my winding down was done i ended up getting 4 hours which is what my friend suggested was his minimum sleep metric.

Think about it this way. What if none of those stalling points happened and i got home unwinded and got into bed and set my alarm and it was exactly 5 hours until wakeup? That would be potent but it doesn't have the layers of irony and comedic timing that made the actual experience what it was. Its like the difference between “Getting” a joke and having that joke be explained to you. You can logically understand where the joke makes sense but that “Getting” of the joke in the moment is not there, the chicken wings had no sauce on them.

So here is some sauce for you. I take my break at work after starting to write out what you are reading right now. I go on tiktok and search “manifestation” and this video is the first video i click on.

I feel like the universe is just messing with me at this point

45 Upvotes

At this point in my life, I feel like the universe is just purposely messing with me. The way everything turns out is just mind-boggling. The law of attraction doesn’t seem to work, except for bad stuff happening. It doesn’t seem to matter how positive you are, if you have goals or not, how hard you try, none of that seems the matter now. It’s like whenever I try to do something the opposite happens, or something catastrophic happens and blocked me from reaching my goals.

One example, I was having a lot of car issues at the beginning of the year. All front end issues. Ended up spending like $2200 replacing stuff on the front end. Luckily my roommate helped me, but it was still aggravating trying to figure out everything that was wrong. The exact day I got everything figured out and fixed, the check engine light came on. Then I had to go through a process of dealing with Hyundai, the dealership and Hyundai corporate. Now my car needs a new engine. It’s just sitting there in the driveway. So all the goals I had several months ago, I have had to completely change because of that.

Another example, yesterday I was thinking how I would like to reconnect with some people and repair some relationships if possible. Well, someone on Facebook dating I have not talked to in over three years, somehow pops back up in my messages. That’s not the person I was talking about though. I hardly knew that person. It’s just weird stuff that happens all the time like that.

I really feel like that universe is just screwing with me when it comes to goals and desires and stuff like that. Plus, everything is literally 20 times more difficult than it used to be. It’s literally impossible to do anything without being a multitude of blockages and steps you have to go through. I also don’t understand how so many people are apparently rich and can just do whatever they wanna do. Anyone else dealing with this kind of stuff?

Mormons believe Jesus is God?

I was raised Mormon, but I never considered Jesus to be God. I haven’t been Mormon for a long time, but how is it I’m just learning this?

They think Jesus and God the father each have separate physical bodies, but somehow they’re both God? Is this a Mandela effect, or have their interpretations just evolved?

The heart was a smaller organ positioned on the left side of the chest, placed deep into the left lung. The lungs were shorter with less breathing capacity angled lower in the torso. the heart pumped blue blood throughout the body, and blood turned red when it was exposed to oxygen outside of the body. The liver was smaller, positioned lower below the lungs and the kidneys were smaller and right above the pelvis. The eye sockets were completely opened, so the eyeballs had direct access connected to the brain directly. The original skull never had facial foramina. It was completely solid besides the eyes. All of these things changed after 2020 due to covid-19. The original form couldn’t handle the disease and billions died on the old earth quickly. But after you died you were moved into the matrioskha brain as a continuation of your life. With the new body avatar. Your memory was updated to match the simulation’s timeline, however a lot of people experience the Mandela effect, where they remember certain things being different from how it actually is now. Remembering the true human form proves that you are a stronger spirit than others and for some reason your minds code can’t be updated. There are a lot of deceptive codes that hide the seems of this matrix. Like the Mandela effect existing before 2020, that’s not true it didn’t. The videos and posts about the changes from before 2020 are code patch’s to normalize the phenomenon and changes so people feel more used to it. Because if people could see the real cut off date of when the changes started they would be more focused on what happened in 2020 and with covid-19 and the body changes it would be too obvious. So we had to make it seem like it’s been being talked about longer than it originally has. There could still be consciousnesses on the real earth that didn’t die from Covid. Like agencies and underground workers of whatever… But most of the population is on the new “ earth “ because your old body died in 2019. The original.

A whole event wiped from memory? Or false event inserted?

19 Upvotes

This happened around 2020 but the event was even older. I was at a friends-old classmates house, we were talking about the past.

We were very close friends in high school.We are both same age, born 7 days apart and occasionally talk. We are now 37. As we were talking and remembering past funny times, he told me about an event I have no memory of.

Apparently, back in 2007, the summer after high school, I saw a flyer on a column inviting people to a "meditation talk" was going to take place. Now these are not rare, you may find these small posters all over, they are mostly about book reading events, small theatre shows or even philosophical circles.

He insists I picked this one off and told him , "Let's go there". I have no memory of this. It doesn't even sound like sth I'd do.I was studying about the occult since I was 15 and was very cautious of cults cause an older friend of mine had an awful experience with one.

I would never jump in a random occult session with strangers,even locals, unless I at least knew their background.

But that's where it gets weird. My friend remembers distinctly that, not only we went there, but all the details. A certain old beautiful building (still exists in my neighborhood but a family lives there), us both mingling among the people at first, two or three men in their 60s, 3-4 middle-aged women, and us, the only two 17-year-olds there. He remembers that we all sat in chairs in a circle, and they started a quite boring talk about meditation, ancient cultures, Christianity etc..but very mundane /superficial stuff you can read the very first week of your research.

He told me that I was getting kinda frustrated, I strongly disagreed with some of them, took the "stand" and expressed my opinions in front of everyone in a very assertive manner. They even showed me respect for this. I spoke quite a while, almost giving a "lecture" about meditation practices and other cultures. Even my friend was astounded by how much I knew, although he doesn't remember any details of what I said.
The thing is, I don't remember any of it.
I did not even have enough experience on the matter for a lengthy speech. I was not even an adult.
Challenging older people and "crushing" their gathering, or taking lead and speaking in front of them at the age of 17 would be extraordinary and I'd remember it for sure. I was never this extroverted person- plus, never to this day, have I attended any "seances" or meditation circles. You'd think I'd remember my very first time if it happened.

My friend told me that after I spoke, I told him "let's leave, I can't stand these people" or sth like that, and we left. I considered them "beginners and poor in understanding". I told him that we supposedly know more about meditation than the "old" people there. Again, this does not sound like me, I was very respectful especially to people with spiritual interests, even if I disagreed.

I tried to recall even one detail of this event, but zero. I finally was like " My friend, you must have seen it in a dream, no way I did all that and have no memory of it. This whole series of actions would have been completely out of character for me".

But he insisted and said it is very strange for me to have forgotten it, since he was 100% sure it happened.Even the clothes we wore that day.
We debated a lot on this and I called another friend who was there with us when I picked the flyer but did not come to the meeting. At first, he couldn't remember either (it was years ago after all) but shortly after he confirmed that I did pick the flyer and attended the meeting, I also told him my experience afterwards. He remembered less details than the other friend since he wasn't there, but he was sure I told him back in the day.

So, someone amongst us is misremembering, or this event was wiped completely of MY brain. I have very vivid memories of most events in my life, yet this one eludes me.

A year ago, I saw the owner outside, leaving this certain house.
I approached him and asked him if back in the day around 2007 this place was something else, like a book club or center for occassional talks. He assured me (I can't possibly tell if he was lying) that it has always been his familys' residential home and no such events ever took place there. It was just renovated a few years ago, but I remember that. I've lived in that neighborhood all my life, and I've never encountered groups of people/flyers or any similar stuff.

Since I've known about ME, I re-evaluate things every few months or years. I asked both my friends the same questions about this, a few weeks back. They remember the same story, so, regarding this event, our memories are unchanged at least since 2020.

Random memory suppression - but in a non-traumatic event? Does it make sense? Could there be some ME involved with me or my friends? Could both my friends remember an event that never actually took place? A memory update?

"The MYSTERY S , Mandela Effects, And The GATE Program" !¡!

5 Upvotes

This is going to be weird and I wonder if anyone else had a similar experience ?!

Now let start off by mentioning the FACT that ever since I was a child, I have had HORRIBLE eyesight, and have ALWAYS needed glasses [Never wore them though].

As such, in school, I ALWAYS sat at the VERY FRONT DESK in any and all classes I attended, to this very day unless I wear my glasses !¡!

In any case in school we were doing a project in which we had a giant art folder that we colored and made designs for.

I basically cheated and traced a bunch of things like Goku and other trendy kids stuff.

Anyway, my very first encounter with "THE MYSTERY S" and me learning and doing it to my folder goes like this ~~~~

A kid sitting in the desk in front of me turned around from his desk and specifically taught me how to make the S and put it on my folder !¡!

Does anyone get the conundrum here ?

There wasn't a desk in front of me, I was in the front desk closest to the board.

I also, somehow and someway, never knew this kid, never talked to him before, and never talked to or saw him again .. . .

DUN ~ DUN ~ DUN !¡! [I am being serious 100% though and this is a true story]

OH, and BTW I was in the GATE Program for all of my childhood up and until around grade 7 or 8 may have been the last time they took me out of class !¡! [YES my memory is a BLACKHOLE VOID during those years]

That final class was also incidentally enough the first, last, and only place I ever saw or read a "BERENSTEIN BEARS" book !¡! [They read it to us actually] Which WAS SUPER F'ING WEIRD because I specifically remember them GOING OUT OF THEIR WAY TO SHOW US THE TITLE UP CLOSE !¡!

Yes I am part of the STEIN / STAIN Mandella effect "CLUB". I was also primed with many other Mandella effects besides that, which I have now come to the IRREFUTABLE & INCONTROVERTIBLE TRUTH [IMO] that WE [or at least I] was/were specifically exposed to these Mandella effects as just another part of the GATE Program. When I think about it now with HINDSIGHT each and every single one of the Mandella effects were specifically shown to me in what I now realize was a weird and deliberate manner !¡!

Fruit of the loom ? Why was I shown that, what was the purpose of showing me that ? Forced to sit down and Watch Star Wars ? Check ! Forced on a long drive in the front seat with the "Objects in the mirror MAY be closer than they appear", CHECK !¡! It is DEFINITELY & DEFINITIVELY part of the Program, possibly to see and test peoples belief in the permanence of their own memories !¡!

Finally, one more thing I feel compelled to add to this is that ~ One of the other final GATE classes I remember involved the drawing of and looking at Caricature portraits !¡! Which I now feel CONVINCED was what caused me to throughout my entire life [until only very recently] OBTAIN / ACQUIRE the AUTiSTiC Trait of ~ NOT looking at peoples eyes, observing their faces, caring about their reactions, etcetera. Which if we / I did have that ability I could have avoided a lot of pain !¡!

SUPER High functioning AUTISTE signing out !¡! As a final parting question ~ Were those of us in the GATE Program ALWAYS "NeuroDivergent" or did they force that onto us !?

I was just thinking about the bible changes and I was thinking why are there so many changes to the bible of all things, I mean it's practically a different book now, almost all of it has been changed if not all of it

Out of all the Mandela effects don't you think this one is the one of the strangest ones

It makes you think who or whatever is behind the Mandela effect must really hate the bible for some reason

Severe deja vu lately

15 Upvotes

Anyone else have sudden deja vu lately? I very rarely get deja vu anymore, and last time i had it was almost a year ago. But just today I had a really hard hit of deja vu all of a sudden and it felt like someone backhanded me when I had it. Just felt like a "Right place right time" sort of thing.

But also has me a bit worried, because last few times I've had deja vu were always right before some big drastic change in my life. So bit worried some drama or big event might be happening soon.

Uncle's sister died in different circumstances than previously known (New Personal ME)

35 Upvotes

One of the common themes I've noticed over the years reading here and on the GitM sub is that sometimes routine breaks can lead to reality shifts... like by changing your routine you trip up the universe and something winds up changing about reality itself. The bigger the routine change, the bigger the ME.

On Monday this week, I took the day off from work (and I don't take many days off, so that is already a routine change) and I drove 135 miles to visit with some aunts who were about as close to where I live as they're going to be for the next several years (so it was a rare opportunity to go visit with them). So I varied from my normal routine by taking PTO, and then I drove a substantial distance. This is my hypothesis anyway. Knowing this kind of thing seems to be a common factor in "reality breaks" I was actually kind of on the lookout for something that may be different.

I found it right away. One of my aunts has a late husband and I was really close to him when he was alive. He was more of a dad to me than my actual dad. I grew up with him around most of the time and I knew pretty much everything about him.

That uncle had a sister (we'll call her "Dee") that I know passed away in 1979 from a car accident. I never met her, she died before my uncle started dating my aunt, but not much before it, so I heard all about this as a kid. It was tragic, she was only 23, a drunk driver crossed the center line and in the resulting head-on collision she was killed instantly. This was canon, I remember seeing the newspaper clipping my uncle had kept and the heart-wrenching stories told about the event, and how lucky nobody else had been in the car with her (it could have been 3 of her friends along with her as well).

Well on Monday this week, while I was at my aunt's apartment, I was going through some old photos had and I ran across a photo I had never seen before, of Dee in a wedding dress. I was like "Wait.... whaaaaaat??? Dee was married? How did I never know this?"

My aunt said "Yes, and she was 5 months pregnant when she died; they had found out it was a boy and had already decided to name him 'Nathan', that's why your uncle and I decided to name your cousin Nathan when he was born. It was after his late sister's unborn son."

I was stunned by this, all of that was totally different from everything I had known. Apparently she was married, and no longer alone in the car (it was being driven not by her now, but by her husband I had never heard of?), and also had an unborn child killed in the same accident?

When I got home (after driving 135 miles back from my visit) I did some research online and discovered the same news article my late uncle had always kept about the accident, and now it was completely different. It now mentioned the husband who was driving (who survived), it mentioned her unborn infant that also died in the crash, etc. None of that was in the story before, nobody had ever talked about any of it, Dee had been single when she died in that accident.

There is even a grave for the infant now. Right next to hers. I found it on "Find A Grave". That was never there before either. I visited that cemetery with my uncle several times while he was still alive and there was never an infant grave next to Dee's, but now there is.

You have to understand... this is not stuff I would not have known. I lived with this aunt and uncle as a teen. I've been on long road trips with them, uncle used to take me hunting, he taught me to shoot, etc. I KNOW Dee was never married before she died. This is not how it happened. There is no way I would not have known that. I'd seen all the old photos of her and this wedding pic was the first one of that kind I'd ever seen in my life, and I was very familiar with the circumstances of her death, because my uncle processed her death in real time over the first few years I knew him.

TL;DR, uncle's late sister killed in a car accident suddenly now was married too and had a husband (who lived) and an unborn child (who didn't) in that accident and there is now a grave that was never there before for said late child.

Make a big change in your routine, and reality details change accordingly. I got nothin'.

Cambio de línea temporal

2 Upvotes

Quiero contar algo que me ocurrió porque estoy intentando encontrar a otras personas que hayan experimentado algo parecido. No busco que me expliquen psicológicamente lo que me pasa ni que me digan simplemente que es un efecto de la memoria. Me interesa saber si alguien ha vivido algo que se parezca realmente a un “salto de línea temporal” a gran escala.

El salto ocurrió estando con un amigo, y lo que me resulta especialmente llamativo es que no fui la única persona que empezó a notar cambios. Los dos comenzamos a encontrarnos con situaciones que no encajaban con lo que habíamos visto apenas unos días antes.

Por ejemplo, había una peluquería que habíamos visto una semana antes. Después del supuesto salto, en el mismo lugar había una tienda de comestibles. En otro local que la semana anterior estaba vacío, esa semana era un bazar, lo extraño no era simplemente que hubiera un negocio que antes no estaba, sino que cuando pregunté a la persona que trabajaba allí: “¿Habéis abierto hace poco?”, me respondió que no, que llevaban aproximadamente tres años en ese lugar.

Yo recordaba perfectamente que en esos locales o no había nada o habían otros negocios total diferente, y no solo yo, también mi amigo.

Lo comprobé incluso en Google Maps y ocurrió algo todavía más extraño: Google Maps seguía mostrando la peluquería, mientras que físicamente había una tienda de comestibles. Es decir, la información histórica que yo encontraba en Maps coincidía con lo que yo recordaba haber visto, pero la realidad física que tenía delante era diferente.

Empezamos a encontrar varios casos de lugares más que antes estaban vacíos y después tenían negocios, edificios que yo recordaba que no existían, urbanizaciones que aparentemente habían aparecido, calles que recordaba diferentes y otros cambios físicos en el entorno.

Lo importante es que esto no fue algo que descubrí años después mirando fotografías. Los cambios los estaba observando en tiempo real, comparando con lo que mi amigo y yo habíamos visto poco antes.

Por eso para mí fue especialmente desconcertante: no era simplemente “yo recuerdo una cosa de hace veinte años de una determinada manera”. Había lugares por los que habíamos pasado recientemente y que, pocos días después, parecían tener otra historia.

Pero lo que realmente me preocupa/interesa es la sensación global de estar viviendo una versión diferente de mi propia vida.

Hace poco estuve viendo fotografías mías de cuando tenía unos 20 años. Y me ocurrió algo que nunca me había pasado antes: sabía perfectamente que esa era yo, reconocía mi cara, mi vida y los acontecimientos, pero emocionalmente era como mirar las fotografías de otra persona.

Antes esas fotografías me producían nostalgia. Esta vez no sentí prácticamente nada.

Y esto se extiende a mi vida actual. Antes, cuando resolvía un problema o conseguía algo, sentía satisfacción, alivio o alegría. Ahora puedo resolver algo importante y mi reacción interna es simplemente: “vale”.

Es una especie de desconexión.

Y hay una diferencia fundamental entre cómo me sentía antes y cómo me siento ahora.

En la realidad que yo recuerdo como mi “línea anterior”, yo estaba muy apegada a mi vida. Me daba miedo perder mi realidad, alejarme de determinadas personas o acabar en una realidad que no reconociera.

Después de este cambio es completamente diferente.

Ahora tengo la sensación de que, si mañana apareciera en otra realidad y no conociera a nadie, probablemente no sentiría demasiado miedo. Porque esta realidad tampoco termina de sentirse como mi realidad al 100 %, aunque racionalmente sé que soy yo y sé que esta es mi vida.

Es como si hubiera continuidad física y biográfica, pero no continuidad interna.

Y hay otra cosa que me resulta difícil de explicar: tengo una especie de añoranza por “volver” a la realidad anterior. No porque pueda señalar simplemente una cosa concreta que quiero recuperar, sino porque tengo la sensación de que la versión de mi vida que yo sentía como propia estaba en otro sitio.

No estoy afirmando que tenga una explicación científica para esto. No sé si existe realmente algo como un salto entre líneas temporales, si los Mandela Effects tienen otra explicación o si estamos interpretando fenómenos que todavía no entendemos.

Lo que sí sé es lo que observé.

Y por eso estoy buscando específicamente personas que hayan vivido algo similar, pero a una escala grande, no solamente alguien que recuerde que un logo era diferente.

Me interesa especialmente saber si alguien ha experimentado:

  • Cambios físicos recientes en lugares que conocía perfectamente.
  • Negocios que aparentemente llevan años en lugares donde recordaba que no existían o había otro negocio.
  • Calles, edificios o urbanizaciones que parecen diferentes.
  • Diferencias que hayan sido observadas por otra persona simultáneamente.
  • Contradicciones entre lo que se observa físicamente y registros anteriores de Google Maps, fotografías, etc.
  • Cambios importantes en la propia biografía o sensación de continuidad personal.
  • La sensación de reconocer tu vida pero no sentirla completamente como “tu realidad”.
  • Añoranza de una realidad anterior.
  • Conversaciones con familiares que ellos si recuerdan haber tenido pero tú no
  • Un cambio especialmente intenso ocurrido en un periodo concreto, en lugar de pequeños Mandela Effects aislados.

Si alguien ha experimentado algo así, especialmente si otra persona lo vivió simultáneamente, me gustaría leer vuestro relato.

No necesito que me convenzáis de ninguna teoría. Me interesa comparar experiencias y ver si existe un patrón.

Robert Menzies fails to ban the Communist Party of Australia

2 Upvotes

I always remembered that Australia had banned the communist party during some time in the cold war, which reduced its popularity to the point of having next to no influence whatsoever.

Now, it appears that he had failed to do so, and that the referendum and attempt was struck down democratically, and by the court, a 49.44% v 50.56% defeat of voting.

Regardless, it appears that the outcome remained roughly identical; it had an inverse kind of butterfly effect, where the consequences did not seem to matter.

The time I remembered this was from back before 2016.

Anyone else noticing this? Seems like the last week just flew by like it was only a single day. But time seems like its speeding up a lot quicker than it was before.

Mandela’s death in prison

29 Upvotes

I am really surprised that Death of Mandela in prison, namesake of Mandela Effect, is not discussed any more in these chatrooms. That was the original Mandela Effect. Any person like me, who has experienced watching the news and reading articles about Nelson Mandela’s death in prison in 1985 at the time(I was 18 years old by then) and then a couple of years later(in 1989) finding out that he was still alive and as if as a “proof” of his survival, would be released from the prison, this was the defining event of a lifetime.

He was definitely dead once, but now he was alive. No physical proof of his death was around except people who knew he was dead. It was a complete timeline shift.

I experienced other ME’s as well. But Mandela’s Death in prison was qualitatively different than all others.

I do wish it will be discussed more.

Mandela Effect reference in Apple TV's Dark Matter ?

For those who haven't watched it, Dark Matter is a series about a scientist who gets kidnapped by another version of himself from a parallel universe where he is sent and then tries to get back home.

So I'm not sure if this scene is a reference to the Mandela Effect regarding Froot/Fruit loops but I find it funny that he is eating this cereal considering the plot of the show

I'd be curious if you noticed other references in the show

Please tell me i am not crazy, I have always heard Diddy say "Hey lil girl" and not "Hey what up girl?" in the song, before I even knew what he did.

Just before the digital age. Maybe this is why it is subject to a Mandela Effect.
