ICQ will stop working on June 26. It's encouraging users to migrate to a messaging app from Russia-based VK, its parent company.

I stopped using ICQ in the very early 00s. I didn't know anything of it still remained.

Nothing specific. Talking to ghosts, spirits, or seeing visions is a child's game. Getting someone to pay you money to talk to spirits ghosts, or see visions, is a con man's game. Both are made up, one is acceptable.

Sounds like your view on the subject is mostly informed by Hollywood. A bit irrational if you ask me, and certainly very dogmatic.

If for some reason you decide to check out a fact-based approach on the subject i can recommend a few Youtube channels that are free, hosted by accredited scholars, and offer in-depth, well researched, long form content on the history of spiritual movements. It is so fucking interesting man. It's like the B-Sides of the history of ideas, and has a lot more impact on the Age of Science than you realize.
