Psychic Ass Pus

i.e. life force leaking out the back end, waking life devoted to and fixated upon anything that happens below the belt, be it in themselves or others

Although she was long in tooth, she had always allowed for the leakage of the psychic ass pus, reveling in it, and as such it had tainted her children

Psychic Sciences

The endeavor to study and quantify extrasensory perception (ESP), telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, and psychokinesis under controlled conditions. Think remote viewing experiments for the CIA, Zener card tests, or random number generator influence studies. The field is plagued by the "shyness" of psychic phenomena—they often vanish under strict laboratory scrutiny. It's the science of maybe, where significant but small statistical anomalies are the holy grail, and fraud is the constant nemesis.

Example: "The lab for Psychic Sciences was full of Faraday cages, truly random number generators, and deeply skeptical researchers. Their biggest breakthrough was a subject who could consistently skew results by 0.001% above chance. The science was solid, but the effect was so tiny it was practically philosophical."

Psychic Mechanics Theory

Essentially synonymous with Psionic Mechanics Theory, but often with a slightly softer, more organic or spiritual connotation. Where "psionic" sounds technological, "psychic" might imply a natural, innate human potential. The mechanics might be framed in terms of "energy channels," "vibrations," or "morphogenetic fields" rather than tachyons.

Example: "The new-age healer's Psychic Mechanics Theory described auras as bio-plasmic energy fields, with clairvoyance working by 'resonating' your field with a distant person's to receive impressions. It was a biomechanical metaphor, painting the psychic as a sensitive organic instrument rather than a mental radio transmitter."

Psychic Theory

The broader framework for understanding psychic ability as a natural, if rare, human faculty. It encompasses the study of mediums, sensitives, and intuitives, often from a folk-psychological or spiritual perspective. It's the worldview that accepts "psychic" as a valid category of human experience.

Example: "Her Psychic Theory held that everyone has latent intuition, but 'psychics' are like radios with the volume cranked up, naturally receiving more signal from the collective unconscious or spiritual world. It was a descriptive model of a talent, not an engineering diagram of its parts."

Psychic Hypothesis

A broader, more general proposition that some people possess a natural sensitivity or faculty allowing them to perceive information or influence the world through means other than the known five senses. This encompasses intuition, clairvoyance, precognition, and healing. Unlike the mechanistic "psionic" term, "psychic" often carries connotations of innate, intuitive gift, connection to a spiritual whole, or heightened emotional sensitivity. It's a faculty, not a technology.

Example: "My grandma's 'gut feelings' about people were so accurate we joked she was psychic. The Psychic Hypothesis we lived by wasn't about bending spoons; it was that her lifelong practice of deep empathy and observation had tuned her unconscious mind to pick up on micro-signals and patterns the rest of us missed, creating an impression of 'knowing' that felt supernatural but might just be hyper-attuned natural perception."

2. (figuratively) when experiencing something so horrible that it reverts your mind

1. Well this character is unfortunately resistant to psychic damage.
2. Watching Tung Tung Tung Sahur gave me critical psychic damage.

Psychic Philosophy

The branch of thought that asks what psychic abilities, if real, would mean for our understanding of mind, reality, and personal responsibility. If you can read minds, is privacy obsolete? If you can see the future, do you have to warn people, or is that interfering with fate? And if you know what your partner is thinking, do you still have to ask how their day was? Psychic philosophy grapples with the ethical implications of powers that probably don't exist, which is either a profound exercise in hypothetical reasoning or a massive waste of time, depending on your perspective.

Example: "He sat in deep psychic philosophy, wondering: if he developed telepathy and discovered his friend secretly hated his cooking, should he stop cooking or just cook what the friend secretly wanted? He then realized he was worrying about the ethical implications of a power he definitely did not have, which was either very thoughtful or very ridiculous. He decided to cook anyway."
