self-explanatory!!
The ability to stop pooping for three days.
Each day you don’t poop, you lay an egg that hatches into a random monster. The egg is indestructible.
🤣👏
You have to post about it online and keep the community updated on your progress, becoming the first widespread Lemmy meme
But when you eventually poop your in the middle of human a human centipede
You already can – immodium
Or just some painkillers. I had surgery seven or eight years ago and I still remember how badly I wanted to shit by day three and it just wasn’t happening.
This is very healthy and has no possible downsides.
You have tk participate in a mysterious and most likely kinky event.
The ability to touch a book to instantly know its content.
Turns out, the books you touch are actually quite satisfied and content.
It only works if you touch it with your penis.
There are no downsides. Perfect.
The title of the book appears somewhere on your skin, and if removed you will forget any knowledge from that book, whether you obtained it through reading or your power. The titles must be legible, and cannot overlap.
but you must feel a paper cut from every single page of knowledge
Better print smaller then!
ooh, good thought! guess you could upload books and print them in nano-sized font
Every book you encounter will always be written in a language you don’t speak.
… but every page becomes blank just before you touch it.
The ability to talk to animals
You can talk to animals now. I think what you mean is you want them to be able to talk too.
Your already can talk to animals. We all understand you.
But only about collecting stamps.

You can talk to animals, but it includes insects and birds… and you can’t shut their conversion out for some peace and quiet
Imagine going outside during spring. All animals are just yelling “I’M SO FUCKING HORNY!”.
You can talk to them but they can’t understand you.
This is just reality
Everytime you talk to an animal, every moving living being around you looks like the animal you talked to for the next 2 hours.
“Say hi to your mother for me, ok!”
Ability to transform into a dog that shoots bees when it barks
Bees come out of your eyes
Your eyes are 10 feet wide.
Nope, hard pass
But you have to guard an old billionaire’s mansion.
Clear anyone of debt just by thinking it.
The debt alwaye gets randomly assigned to another person
OOF.
Carefully used this could still be worth it.
Their debt transfers to you.
Hey I think I actually have this superpower!
And then to you…
And then to an orphan somewhere. You monster.

The ability to read another person’s thoughts by looking at them.
Granted, but your thoughts are transmitted to the person looking at you.
Is that a bad thing 😏
Nope, not really.
But it could be dramatic, like when you look at your crush, reading their thoughts, but the one who has a crush on you stares at you, knowing your thoughts and being heartbroken.

Stopping time
but for everyone, including yourself.
Fuck
Oh no, you’ve doomed us all.
But unfortunately you can’t start it again.
gg
It restarts at random.
Can’t start time again.
You stop time for yourself too.
RIP
Time stops for everything that isn’t you, including air. You leave a vacuum everywhere you go and can never stay anywhere for long.
But it occasionally restarts at a random point in the future

Having unlimited power means you control everything. You have no time to enjoy your power because you’re constantly making sure the laws of physics stay and balance so the universe doesn’t dissolve.
Guthix basically.
Every attempt at thought or action ends in an omnipotence paradox. E.g., can God make a rock so heavy even he can’t lift it?
deleted by creator
The side-effect is randomized Dementia >:)
so like, real god
You have analysis paralysis. You can do everything, but you can’t figure out what you want to do at any given time, so you just do nothing.
You also gain impotence. Congratulations! You now know that you can only be a god by being a paradox
I can summon food by saying its name.
You consume the calories of every food by just naming it.
Top life hacks to never starve.
Finally, a solution to stop poop for 3 days.
But the delivery guy still wants money for the food you ordered.
You take it from the hungriest person about to eat it, assuming there is someone at the time. You cannot turn this ability off, and it happens even when you aren’t referring to the food. I hope those birthday cakes taste good, you monster.
Ability to secrete custard from my hands at will.
Only when orgasming
this just makes it even better
Can’t make custard without 'ard!
You constantly forget to wash your hands.
Your mouth becomes sealed shut for 8 hours whenever you secrete custard.
Hah! You clearly don’t understand the power of refrigeration.
My new bedtime routine would be filling up the custard freezer.
The custard is rancid.
Impossible!
Even fantasy there is no reality where custard is not delicious 🤤
Will calls the police and you are arrested.
The ability to study, understand and use fantasy level magic.

magic is just physics we dont understand yet… think this could still work

This is like saying you would be tired after lifting a pallet with a forklift. Many magic systems are about using magic in the world around you, which only requires you to understand how to use it; the energy being consumed doesn’t come from yourself.
No, if you were just worried about energy, you would be much less tired than by doing things manually. For example, moving a heavy object downhill would gain you energy, not lose it, and keeping a heavy object in the air would neither gain nor lose energy. it would only be lifting that is hard, and it would still be easier than lifting manually.
Edit: and according to Wikipedia, human muscles only have an efficiency of around 20%, so doing basically anything through magic would be 5x easier than doing it by hand.

Now you see why the people at Hogwarts have a big feast every other day. And I don’t recall the more corpulent ones using that much magic
Obeying all of the laws of physics, magic wouldn’t work at all. Assuming you were able to break a few but kept some such as conservation of energy, it would be very powerful, ex: teleportation does not break conservation of energy as long as you teleport to the same height you left from. If you were able to extract energy from your surroundings, you could probably do basically anything you want. You could lower the sun’s heat by a degree and be able to move a mountain.
deleted by creator
This would be a fair limit. You would be limited by certain conservation laws, but as long as you would provide an adequate energy source (say, like Flash, you had to eat a lot more food) it could still be useful.
This is so far the Best and evil side effect :D
Not the laws of chemistry, or biology?
I’m an immortal Alchemist!deleted by creator
VERY mortal if you don’t
But it still only works if magic actually works and if it doesn’t, then you just understand really well how you would have used magic, if it were actually real.
The ability to read, write, and speak every language
You become deaf and blind
God damn it
It would be less efficient, but people who are deaf-blind can access the Internet and communicate using a refreshable Braille display. In-person they can communicate using an interpreter using a special sign language.

Teleportation by thinking of a place
It will only teleport your body, not your clothes
Thats a obvious oversight by me. Worth a try still.
Plus, I can go anywhere instantly as long as I’m in private.
I think you win. Easiest side effect to deal with. You could have go bags all over the world.
Jokes on you, I don’t wear clothes.
Does not teleport your cloths.
Hm, I’d still take it
Ehh. Just look up pictures of nude beaches or something.
You are unable to control the ability and will teleport even when you are just be reminded of a place.
deleted by creator
The first time you go to a church and actually understand what they’re saying as a child, you go to hell
Thinking includes dreams and nightmares. You wake up in interesting places.
You don’t teleport to the place you’re thinking of.
As you get older you keep thinking back to places that no longer exist.
You will arrive naked only - with an urgent need to vomit.
That place is the time you walked in on your parents having sex.
You better keep it very quiet and not teleport in front of anyone by accident, because as soon as governments are aware of your power, be ready to become a lab rat who will be the rest of your life sedated
