For the ancient Egyptians, life was merely a preparation for the most significant event: death. One breath into this organic ceramic vessel from Kinfolk Ceramics and the haunting, earthy tones of the ancient Nile come alive.

"Are you a ghost?" “Well, not really, but I am in an odd sort of way.” 🤡 One of the strangest entity encounters in British anomalous history took place in 1973 near Sandown on the Isle of Wight, when two children reported coming face to face with a bizarre figure that has since become known as the “Sandown Clown.” According to the account, the children were walking near the golf course and small airport area when they heard a loud, wavering noise resembling a siren or ambulance. Following the sound into a swampy meadow, they crossed a small footbridge and reportedly saw a blue-gloved hand emerge from beneath it. What followed was a sight they never forgot. The figure they described was nearly seven feet tall and unlike anything in conventional UFO or ghost lore. It had no visible neck, a perfectly round white face, triangular eyes, a rectangular brown nose, an oval mouth with motionless yellow lips, red hair, and circular markings on its cheeks. It wore a pointed yellow hat topped with a black knob and flanked by antenna-like projections, along with a red collar, green tunic, white trousers, blue gloves, and feet said to have only three white toes. Its arms and legs were described as stiff and oddly constructed, giving it the appearance of something between a clown, a robot, and an alien. The children said the being dropped a book in the water, retrieved it awkwardly, and entered a strange metallic hut with no windows. It later reappeared carrying what they described as a microphone-like object attached to a white cord. After the sound stopped, the entity reportedly called out to them in a friendly tone and began communicating both by speech and by writing in a notebook. It allegedly identified itself in a peculiar way, saying it was “all colours, Sam.” When asked whether it was a man, it said no. When asked whether it was a ghost, it gave the now-famous reply: “Well, not really, but I am in an odd sort of way.” It also reportedly told the children it had no real name, that there were others like it, and that it was frightened of people and would not fight back if attacked. The children said they were invited inside the hut, where they saw blue-green walls marked with strange patterns, simple furniture, and an electric heater. The being claimed it lived on berries and water, and in one of the most bizarre details of the entire case, it allegedly demonstrated eating by placing a berry to its ear, with the fruit seemingly moving through its head before appearing at its mouth. The encounter reportedly lasted around half an hour. When the children finally ran off, they told the first adult they saw that they had encountered a ghost. No physical evidence was ever recovered, and no definitive explanation has ever been established. More than five decades later, the Sandown Clown remains one of the most unsettling and difficult-to-categorize cases in all of high strangeness. Not simply because it was weird, but because it seemed to exist somewhere between folklore, apparition, machine, and something entirely unknown. #ufox #ufotwitter

I may have to address a very disturbing situation involving a previous guest on my podcast, but until we have all the facts, that is all i'm saying.

According to some remote viewers, the beings that influenced people to create AI and the World Wide Web look like spiders with humanoid faces, kind of like Pennywise from It. Like Pennywise, they are even described as clownish in some cases. Interestingly, the other beings people claim are responsible for today’s technology are the machine elves. What’s up with these entities and the trickster archetype?

@aakashgupta Saying “please” and “thank you” to your AI is the new putting a shopping cart back.

Sam Altman said people saying “please” and “thank you” to ChatGPT costs OpenAI tens of millions of dollars a year in compute. 67% of Americans do it anyway. Run the math on why. A 2024 Waseda University study tested LLM responses across politeness levels in English, Chinese, and Japanese. Impolite prompts produced measurably worse outputs: more bias, more errors, more refusals. Moderate politeness consistently beat both extremes. The mechanism makes sense once you see it. Polite prompts pattern-match to higher-quality training data. When you write “Could you help me structure this analysis?”, the model pulls from professional, well-reasoned text. When you write “give me the answer,” it pulls from Reddit. Google DeepMind’s Murray Shanahan explained it simply: the model is role-playing a smart intern. Treat the intern like a colleague, you get colleague-quality work. Bark orders, you get minimum-viable compliance. Now look at the cost side. OpenAI handles over a billion queries daily. Each GPT-4 query uses roughly 2.9 watt-hours, ten times a Google search. But OpenAI just raised $40 billion at a $300 billion valuation. Tens of millions in politeness tokens is a rounding error on a rounding error. 67% of users do it anyway, and 55% of them say it’s because it’s “the right thing to do.” They’re maintaining a behavioral habit that governs every other interaction in their life. The parent who teaches their kid to say please to Alexa isn’t doing it for Alexa. They’re doing it because the alternative is raising someone who learns that being rude gets faster results. Telling 900 million people to stop saying thank you so OpenAI can save 0.01% of operating costs is the most engineer-brained optimization take on the internet. You’re training yourself to treat every interaction as a transaction. And that habit doesn’t stay in the chat window.

🚨 GEN Z WOMAN WITH THREE JOBS BREAKS DOWN ON CAMERA — “I DON’T EVEN WANT TO BE ALIVE ANYMORE… I STILL CAN’T AFFORD TO LIVE” A Gen Z woman filmed herself after finding a red eviction notice on her door and says she’s hit a breaking point. She says she has three different jobs, often pulling overnight shifts and putting in six days a week. No health insurance. No PTO. No benefits. Constant shifts because if she doesn’t show up… she makes nothing. And even putting in those hours, she says it’s still not enough. According to her, $1,918.80 is due by Monday or she could be evicted from her apartment. “I show up every day and I still can’t cover my necessities.” The video is now spreading online as people argue over what it says about the economy. Working more hours than ever… and still drowning. How does someone with THREE jobs still end up one bill away from being homeless?

it’s common to refer to screens and the omnipresence of screens as “demonic”, something like hypnotism - for the internet, terms like “hellsite”, “doomscrolling”, all have this devilish lens to them. regardless of what you think of his work, joseph smith is a uniquely american figure. i see utah hooked in on the earliest internet maps - arpanet and such things - this is presumably just a coincidence. joseph smith famously had a seer stone which he allegedly used to bring forth the book of mormon. seer stones - i would file these under the folder of “scrying”, a practice where one looks into a physical item to see something beyond normal vision, has a long history. most people are familiar with crystal balls (which were actually used - polished selenite stones). joseph smith’s personal stone has a long interesting history and chain of custody. allegedly after his death it was present at the consecration of an LDS temple - possibly in manti. i believe he had more than one, and at least one was named. an actual image of one of joseph smith’s stones was released by the LDS church relatively recently, you can see that below. in some accounts of his translation of the book of mormon, he placed the stone into darkness, and it lit up (for him, personally). there is one tale where as a test, a friend switched his stone out for another, and upon placing this new false stone into darkness, smith remarks something like, “it’s dark as egypt in here”, meaning: it gives no light. then his friend is satisfied, and returns the real stone. as a unique insight into the american spirit, in my opinion seer stones serve as a kind of extended metaphor in the mormon cosmology. some say joseph smith said every person had a seer stone waiting for them, but by grace these are not revealed to us yet, as we’re presently not in the state to receive them. i believe there is a tale about an angel or spirit looking into a white stone, or receiving their “true name” on a white stone (possibly misremembering this), and there is some account i picked up somewhere that in its perfected state, the earth would even resemble a large polished stone like this. i am not saying all or many or any LDS people think this, or that i’m even recalling this accurately. i’m not an official source for such concepts, just a nerd who finds these things interesting. but i have often thought about this cosmos structure where everyone gets a seer stone, that has been waiting for them. once, i had a dream that i was in some pre-human state, and i was holding a stone, and it was kind of like a TV: i could look into and see life on earth, and was deciding what i thought about it - if it was good or evil, fair or unjust. its not a huge jump to tie the concept of a luminous stone that shows you things to today’s screens. essentially, a warped version this odd ethereal vision has become true. we all now possess the equivalent of a seer stone. show me a soldier dying. show me two people in love. what is the weather in berlin right now? i would like to hear a lecture by a harvard professor about the nicomachean ethics. show me myself twelve years ago today. the screen-stones just do what we ask. yet, apparently we all view them as some form of evil. perhaps some harmonic of my recalled tale is true: that we shan’t have access to them, because of ourselves and our internal state. don’t phones have stones in them? i’m honestly not sure. i never told one to tell me.

Clearly Elon, you can’t blame Anthropic for someone intentionally misusing their product. It’s not Anthropic that is doing the killing. If Palantir and the Military can’t verify the target, then they’re useless. Apply the same discernment you would like applied to your companies even if some propaganda hit pieces targets a competitor.

You can throw out the "angels & demons" narrative if you want, but you're throwing out thousands of years of testimony about non-human encounters to protect a very recent cultural bias.
