glumshoe:

A couple years ago I found an ebay listing for a “haunted cap”. The seller was describing how strange things began happening in his house after he found a hat and a doll in his attic, so he was selling both ‘cause he didn’t know which one was the source of the haunting.

That’s right. He looked at that raggedy old hat and that monstrous burnt doll and couldn’t tell which one of them was more haunted.

The cover of the next Stern, a German news magazine.

The title Sein Kampf (transl. his struggle) is a play on the title of Hitler’s autobiography Mein Kampf (transl. my struggle).

The full translation of the cover would be

HIS STRUGGLE

How Donald Trump is stirring up hatred in America

When Germans call you a Nazi….

Originally posted by usedpimpa

I see so much commentary in the tags about how Trump can’t be a Nazi because he’s pro-Israel, and I’m sitting here like, guys. Children. Nazi doesn’t mean “kills Jews.” That was the horrible outcome. The ideology itself was putting one’s own nation above all else (ring a bell?) while undermining democratic values (RING A BELL?) and being blatantly racist (RING A… you know what, forget it, you’re not listening to me anyway). 

Instead of anti-communism you now have fierce pro-capitalism and instead of Jewish people being called animals you now have immigrants facing the same hatred. You already have the denunciations and people walking from door to door trying to root out “illegals.”

Current US politics may not involve any gas chambers, but Hitler didn’t burst on the political scene with “Let’s kill all the Jews!” either. If you honestly think US policies won’t escalate further, especially if Trump gets a second term, you’re standing chin-deep in denial.

I know it’s from a superhero movie, but the line I keep running in my head is, “Everyone forgets that the first country the Nazis invaded was their own.”

Also just because he’s ‘pro Israel’ doesn’t mean he’s ‘pro Jewish’. The man’s been horrifically antisemitic on a number of occasions.

i started seeing screenshots of tumblr users receiving messages from a blog called “sexygirlmax2019”

this is, of course, standard on tumblr, to receive porn bot messages

they were exceptionally weird
“Hey peebrain -you teleport?”
“Hi pea for brains…. can you teleport?”

checking the timestamps, all of sexygirlmax2019’s posts have been made today
they’re formatted impeccably like bot messages and posts
but they’re just a little off

this isn’t a bot
this is a human controlling a blog acting like a bot
all of the links?? aren’t porn links
mysterious bit.ly links to this site:
https://max2019.neocities.org/
if you “click here to instantly transport” you get taken to
> /seraphim.html
if you click it again
> /cherubim.html
again
> /thrones.html
…which returns a “Page Not Found” error

Porn Bot ARG

So I ran the mp3 you could get from /cherubim.html through a sstv scanner and got this back

image

Which is just straight up the image from /seraphim.html.

But the it’s weird, when I went back to /cherubim.html the page changed from a picture and an mp3 download to this:

image

And when I clicked on that I was taken to /firstsphere/thrones.html which looked like this:

image

When I clicked on THAT I was taken to /secondsphere/dominions.html and greeted to this disturbing image:

image

The last eye was apparently clickable which took me to /secondsphere/powers.html which looked like this:

image

the text on it reads:
“H.U.R.L

Hierarchy of Uniform Resource Locators”


??????????

So /dominions.html just changed to this:

image

and /powers.html changed to:

image

BUT since making this update, the file for the image is no longer there! So it looks like:

image

Clicking on the (now missing) picture, it takes you to /secondsphere/light1.html which looks like:

image

Clicking that takes you to /secondsphere/light2.html, whick looks like how /powers.html looks:

image

Clicking that takes you back to /secondsphere/light1.html, which has JUST NOW gotten worse:

Medieval Tactics Alive and Well

adobsonartworks:

I don’t remember where I saw this, but someone was talking about how there was this very common Medieval tactic that Kings would use to ingratiate themselves with the common folk…

STEP 1: Do something terrible that most people hate.

image

STEP 2: Have the queen or princess publicly protest the act.

image

STEP 3: The King would then say he’s had a change of heart because the queen/princess “moved them” with their words, and relinquish the terrible act.

image
image

STEP 4: This has the effect of making the King look kind/generous/empathetic, while opening them up to leverage and bargaining techniques.

image

So, like… This is happening RIGHT NOW… and I just wanna make sure nobody is fooled by it.
