"This is the basis of Bayesian theories of how we perceive the world that is, the brain makes inferences about the world around us based on statistics and probabilities on what is likely to occur." I think this explains at least some incidents of precognition. If I live near the train tracks, and everyday at 1:00 p.m. a train rolls by that makes the whole house rumble, I subconsciously log that. Suppose a friend drops by at 12:45 p.m. and I offer him a glass of water while we're sitting down visiting. At 12:57 p.m. I note that he sets the glass near the edge of a table. I warn him that he needs to move it.
I did so, because I "foresaw" the glass being rattled off the table with the impending passage of the train, but there really was nothing mystical or supernatural about it. Somewhere between my conscious and subconscious mind, my knowledge and past experience simply connected a few easy dots that allowed me to make the logical conclusion that the glass would be shaken off the table with the impending passage of the train.
I suspect some, if not many people with so-called precognitive abilities simply have a combination of experiences, knowledge and subconscious abilities that allow them to connect more dots than the "average" person and make logical extrapolations a bit farther out than the rest of us.

More bogus crap from the Psychiatry/Pharma conflomerate. They intend to label everyone as mentally ill and in need of drugs that make you kill your families and coworkers.

You don’t believe that brain science and neuropsychology are legitimate fields with objective research goals? I’d better tell my alma mater.

I usually have several hallucinations every night.
They’re called dreams.

Indeed, some can connect the dots, say attendance at Trump rallies + buffoon Dem candidates + lying media and fake polls + media panic = Trump re-election

“I usually have several hallucinations every night. Theyre called dreams.”
Actually, reversing that, so hallucination are considered dreams occurring during wakefulness, with an inability to differentiate the reality of each, is right on the mark.
