Nightmare Fuel

[BIL]

Existence? I can't help but think someone's forsaken you and me~

Those poor motherfuckers on that sub, eh. Fucking hell. No idea who any of them were but that's just a universally shitty scene!

I never really ever got the adults who panic over doom. "We were born of the doom, made by the doom, undone by the doom", yadda yadda. It should be a comforting blanket by now, with the dozens of inevitable ways it descends upon us. Broadly and individually.

The "full stop AI" guys are kind of optimistic, considering the doom we've already got scheduled. Compared to that, the Terminator movies are positively utopian. Just look at how nice SkyNet is to humans: they get to LARP a fantasy wargame, so their lives still have a unifying purpose with their fellow humans. There's somehow still energy abundant enough to drive cars around. What luxury!

... granted the torture worlds are.... they might seem fun at first glance, but like joining a real cult in the real world, would get very boring and very very bad very quickly.......

I guess in some cases it's a matter of exposure; grounded folks who don't stop to ponder the infinite perspective vortex on the regular getting a whiff of it via news, internet, whatevs, and proceeding to freak out.
The idea of apocalypse seems widespread enough to be paradoxically comfortable, but there's that tricky self-preserving achilles point of hoping your generation isn't the one to meet the bus face-to-face.

I recall having a particularly vivid dream at one point that was effectively a prelude to the T2 wire fence scene. Burning skies, with altogether too much time to think "oh, they actually did it" and ponder what that skeleton felt like ahead of the blast wave.
Gave me the existential heebs for about a week before monotony settled back in

There are times I wonder if this isn't a Mind Forever Voyaging thing, but I know what I'm being grown for isn't as something noble as a policy research schmuck or a submodule that acts as an AGI's oversight council. Probably as a doll for a coven of nerdy bisexual witches, or a meat donkey for some guy's basement for him to beat to death with a stick over and over.

What's the Watts quote... "You are the universe experiencing itself". Perhaps a DSP unit then, though preferably as in signals.

One of the more out-there thoughts is the idea that our perception isn't tied to our particular configuration of meat, per-se. But rather the weights and electric signals they've formed between them. That you're being shunted constantly between various arbitrary universes where they continue from where they left off: the natural conclusion of pushing the ideas of quantum immortality and the anthropic principle way too far.

It seems a very human idea, that our electrons would be special enough to act as the locus for an infinity of realities. Though I suppose that thought is putting the cart before the horse in the context of a theory where the human is the least important bit!
All part of the higher-order fun I suppose. Monad (Category Theory) versus Monad (Philosophy) - the structure can be as convoluted as it likes if it's imperceptible to the thing passing through it.

Now THIS is a gaming channel I can get big of.

>BOSSMANJACK WILL DESTROY ALL RATS<

Tragic case; early 30s online gambling addict / crackhead whose rich old parents don't know how to deal with him. 3; So many walls and doors fallen in the line of duty.

I can't believe how extensive this online gambling racket is... so many different one-armed bandits to annihilate you and your children's futures on. I mean I know about the industry and associated vice. It's more how sugary-sweet they've made it look. Oof, christ. Saw one medieval fantasy-themed game called "HELLISH TORMENT" or something, yeah good name!

Don't let me see any of you down the slots, lads! U'll break ur ol mucker Biruford's heart! 3; Play some Daimakaimura or Saigo no Nindou, now those are classy wagers. :3

IT'S SUCH FUCKING BULLSHIT MAN... *Lever Pull*

Nightmare fuel indeed. And the corresponding sedative in Mister Jackpots.

Funny, his shaggy incarnation is a dead ringer for one of my university chums. Coincidentally the one who liked a scratchie or two from the newsagent!

The sugary sweet angle brings to mind some facile mobile trash YouTube has been trying to peddle me lately; a medieval fantasy grind-a-thon of some sort dressed up in soft and inoffensive cartoon aesthetic, but with lashings of step-on-me femdom imagery all over it. NOT4KID, but plausibly deniable in case little timmy accidentally develops a taste for giant women.

Brings to mind Evony from the days of ye olde web - sexy queens giving it Invade my castle, Lord! to flog a dull strategy game looks quite innocent by comparison

Sometimes after being exposed to a cognito-hazard I appreciate the appeal of not knowing things. My youtube feed is unfortunately a little educational, so.

I'll tag this one so you can be spared, and able to continue innocently living your life, if you choose to live in the gentle route.

Spoiler

Face mites. Face mites. Go google yourself up an image of the things or better yet an animation of them wiggling to make the rest of your life that much worse.

i find this on the edge of erotic and somewhat satisfying: Martyrs Intro Scene

Jesus that was nuts. Is the flick any good?

not much, it starts explosively, then gets lost, then becomes mystical (and brutal) at the end. Still one of the best in it's sub-genre (Horror? Gore? something in between)

There are times when I'm happily lurking teh farm with a big mug of Horlicks, only to be moved in some way, and I go "By all rights, Favourite VGM / TV U Watch / Nightmare Fuel, etc, deserves a bump." And so, after a disgusted "AUGHHH! FUCK!" I submit:

Cooking With Jack

An old internet horrorshow; likely known to many here, myself included. But when it's been a while, Jack's culinary necrosis hits like a boneshank to the ribs. No, not a bonehammer! Odds are you'd see that coming. Jack's an amiable old fat dude, with a moderately-known cooking channel; reasonable to expect some culinary nous, certainly basic hygiene / food prep etc. Aaand no. *stab* 3; *hurrrk*

In a bad way lately, is auld Papa Scalfani, Saint Of Dysentery and Devourer Of Salmonella. Four strokes and myriad associated ailments, confined to mobility scooter, not even 55. Christ! Watch your waistline and get some minimal exertion into your day, lads! You don't want to be a Nurgling, even if you think it's all cool and nihilistic and shit. 3; It's not like you'll be eulogised as some wild and crazy hedonistic rocker, maaaan - Nobody gives a shit if you stroked out and lost your foot on Twinkies, that's half the developed world :O

Speaking of one-armed bandits! (I regret typing that already. the Nightmare consumes all decency! Jack's third stroke took his right arm, you see 3;)

Couldn't help recalling BossMan's plight, while MIRIN this chap's masterly Rainbow Islands BigDickPlay! Rainbow Resorts, the cute n' cuddly killing floor, where performance means prizes! But not cash. They got your cash already! FUCKIN BULLSHIT

"Alright c'mon Dracula, daddy needs a Violet, c'mon don't be an asshole" *Dracula lands on Blue* "WHAT! You fuck, fuckin... FUUUUUUCK" *gamer chair SPD* "Someone help me man, please maaan~"

...it really hits me, like a cartoon mallet to the deranged gurn of a cartoon crackhouse alleycat, how squarely Jack taps the ol' DarkSydePhil - aka PigRoachPhil - rage market. He's a damn sight fierier than sad sack o' shite Phil, too! I wonder if he could make a Twitch parlay into hollering at Money Idol Exchanger ("FUCK! Wait - YYYEAAAAAAA"), and Stakes Winner ("C'mon you fuckin nag! YESSS! DO IT BABY! DO - faaa... FUUUCK!" *gamer chair Running Three*). Perhaps a bit of Riding Hero?

Then I remember, he got into this shit streaming Oldschool Run Escape money matches. But perhaps there's some bleak way home, there? Fuck, I should stop musing. He's probably suplexing his chair and doing crack rips as I type this. 3:
