anything qanon related will make your brain implode faster than a carbon fiber pressure hull at 12k feet.

edit: this is not a good thing

Yeah, I’m all for conspiracies and many have been proven true over time. Q is a whole different world.

I want the return of fun conspiracy theories.

Bigfoot. Aliens. Secret government weapon projects.

Government surveillance and things like Iran-Contra and MK Ultra are what I’m meaning.

A while ago I discovered that my home town newspaper made their entire archive searchable online. For fun I decided to search for my family to see if anyone had been in the papers.

The only one I found was my dad in a city council meeting public comment session arguing against fluoridation of the water supply and saying it was a communist plot.

Yep. That’s my dad. I once found a box of John Birch society leaflets in our attic. If it wasn’t for the fact that operating anything more complex than a light switch is effectively beyond him, he’d be up to his scalp in q-anon bullshit.

As it is, the tv never changes from fox news.

Tor. A serious study of as many .onion sites as I could find. There are many reasons why people want to be anonymous. I don’t know why, I just felt compelled to look at the edges of humanity.

Back in the early 2000s, I heard tell of Freenet, thought it sounded like a cool project, and started poking around there. I soon determined that a lot of the material being exchanged there was not anything I wanted anywhere near my disk, even encrypted. Deleted it pretty darn quick.

Drug dealers, arms dealers, hit men, conspiracy theorists with apparent mental health issues, child porn. I was at least somewhat amused until the last, then it was like, “Yeah no, I’m done with this” All you need is a copy of TAILS.

One time I had a weird skin thing and was trying to look up whether I should be worried about it, and stumbled onto a bunch of shit about Morgellons Disease, in which people think they have fibers or parasites growing out of their skin.

I just had a weird ingrown hair.
