Science tells me the paper is being warmed by my hands.
Science tells me the paper is inert and nonreactive.
Science tells me the paper is a construct without cognition.
The cards tell me they are eager for work.
Science tells me the deck is made warm by friction.
Science tells me the deck retains heat more than my fingertips.
Science tells me the deck has no measure of intelligence.
The cards tell me they wish to converse.
Science tells me it’s all apophenia.
Science tells me it’s all pareidolia.
Science tells me it’s all in my head.
The cards tell me it’s all in play.
