My fellow keepers of the light, the end of darkness is nigh!
The good ETs have been paying close attention to us for many many years, now is the time to reach out to them so they can raise your vibrational level from ceramic mug to ceramic plate levels. You must raise it now before it's too late, otherwise the bad ETs will exploit your good judgment. The best way is through what you would call "prayer", but really is telepathic communication. In order to get their attention you must "shock" the temporal vibrational field, like creating a wave in a calm lotus pond, by smashing a ceramic plate on the floor and screaming "Ashtray Command". They might not answer back, but they'll hear your beckoning.
I implore you to attempt: get a tall stool, forcefully throw that plate as if to throw it through the floor, so the vibrations transcend through the vibration floor of reality, through to ashtray command. When you scream, make it more of a shrieking as normal screaming will get unnoticed through the white noise of others doing normal screaming.
If I can do it, so can you anons. Plates are cheap at second hand store.
