things i think about more than i probably should

the bystander effect
absolutely terrifying. the greater the number of bystanders, the less likely it is for any one of them to provide help to a person in distress. it’s the diffusion of responsibility, the idea that “someone will help so i don’t have to.”
the markiplier lore
my most niche fandom. i’ve been fighting the urge to make a 400 slide powerpoint about the storyline. it’s genuinely insane.
beastly kingdom
rest in peace, you were genuinely one of disney’s biggest fumbles. i like animal kingdom but we really could’ve had it all. dragons, unicorns, krakens, fantasia gardens???? UGHHHH
abandoned 20,000,000 leagues under the sea serpent animatronics
i am their personal defense lawyer. no reddit poster #2526 these animatronics are not still there, no they are not cursed. they are silly little creatures who got abandoned by disney because they didn’t know what to do with them.
the 2015 - 2018 indie horror wave
five nights at freddy’s, bendy and the ink machine, granny, baldi’s basics, tattletail, hello neighbor, little nightmares, among the sleep, doki doki literature club, among the sleep. nothing compares to this era and the youtube videos that sprung from it. I WANT IT BACK.
popularmmos & gamingwithjen’s divorce
i remember exactly where i was and what i was doing when the video dropped. i grew up with them, they were practically my youtube parents. :(
the unaired games of thrones pilot
i have so many questions. what did the script look like? what did the original actors look like? why does everyone’s hair look like THAT in the few photos we have of it?????
jonbeńet ramsey
a girl who lost her life too young and still has not received justice. her case has so many errors and oddities to it that we may never know what happened. i wish people were more sensitive when talking about her. she was a child whose investigators failed her.
peaches doe + her baby
the girl with the peach tattoo aka jane doe #3 of lakeview, new york. an unidentified baby was found and linked to her. the fact that they just vanished, the fact that still no one knows who they are is gut-wrenching and sad. i hope her and her baby’s name is discovered one day.
the minecraft poem
“and the universe said you are the universe tasting itself, talking to itself, reading its own code. and the universe said i love you because you are love.”
the titanic
i could talk about this infamous ship for hours. it’s truly a tragedy. they had more life boats than the minimal requirements of 20. they had 64. it still wasn’t enough.
laika the space dog
space cadet of the stars, pet to no one. she deserved to see the whole galaxy from the backyard of a loving home, not from a small window of a rocket ship.
the 2016 clown incidents
literally why did this happen? and why does nobody talk about it anymore?
the execution of lady jane gray
the nine days queen. only 17 years-old. a tragic pawn in a game that was played against her unfairly. this painting lives in my mind rent free.
rhythm zero
a performative art piece that everyone should know. a woman stood for hours with 72 objects in front of her and remained completely still while people did anything they wanted to her. after six hours she began to walk towards the audience. they fled in fear. they suddenly remembered she was a human, not an object.
the myth of orpheus & eurydice
to be love is to turn around. an orpheus who never failed the journey back is an orpheus who would’ve never gone to the underworld in the first place. eurydice forgives him for a reason.
the last known photo of a wild atlas lion
also known as a barbary lion. taken from a plane during a flight in 1925. the lion is walking in a desert. it’s alone.
