  • The Mask

    The Mask

    We are trying our best to make logical sense of this one.. but we keep failing to comprehend.

    Retired Vice Admiral Robert Harward provided expert analysis on the US-Iran standoff on Fox News .. While appearing on the segment, Harward suggested that President Donald Trump had time on his side and was leveraging both the blockade and sanctions to put pressure on Iran.

    But no one really listened to him since his appearance sparked speculation that he was wearing a mask.

    But seriously..

    Here is the full video from the Fox News YOUTUBE page..

    Note that comments have been turned off..

    It is just weird. I have no idea what we are looking at.. and you don’t either.

    A logical part of your brain could say it was a medical issue.. bad makeup.. a necklace.

    Or the long standing conspiracy that people just wear masks is right..

    There are some folks who believe there is a logical explanation for this…

  • If a fake tree moves towards you in your front yard and no one’s there to see it does it even move it all?

    If a fake tree moves towards you in your front yard and no one’s there to see it does it even move it all?

    There’s a really fun thing happening on TikTok right now. It’s not hurting anyone, it’s not dangerous… but it’s causing just enough debate to make it interesting. And honestly, if it’s just for entertainment, that’s all we need.


    For the past few days, there’s been a guy posting videos claiming that a tree in his backyard is… moving.

    His “evidence” is simple but effective. He records himself walking toward the tree, then compares it to footage from the next day where the tree appears to be slightly closer. Not dramatically… just enough to make you pause. Just enough to make you wonder.
    But he doesn’t stop there.


    He claims he’s watched the tree for hours and hasn’t seen a single bird land on it. Says it looks fake. Says when you check his property on satellite view, the tree doesn’t even show up. And maybe the creepiest part… he says the tree next to it has been there his entire life, but this one? He doesn’t remember it at all.
    Listen… this is fun.


    What makes it even better is the comment section. There are people fully buying into it. Not questioning it. Not debating it. Just accepting it like, “Yeah… that tracks.”


    And that’s where it gets wild.


    It’s not even about whether the tree is moving anymore. It’s about how quickly people are willing to go along with something like this. Almost like it’s easier to believe in a slowly advancing tree than to question it. Maybe because, in a weird way, it feels harmless. Maybe even comforting compared to everything else going on.
    Now do I believe the tree is moving toward his house?
    No.


    Do I believe he might believe it?


    That’s a different question.


    Because at the end of the day, there’s no real way for us to independently verify any of this. And as the videos get more attention, one thing is definitely true… whether he expected it or not, he’s gone viral.


    And honestly… let’s just say it.


    If there really was a tree slowly moving toward someone’s house in 2026… would that even be the most shocking thing we’ve seen this year?


    To be honest… it might be the least surprising.

  • A potential meteor crashed through a woman’s house in Texas

    A potential meteor crashed through a woman’s house in Texas

    A bright fireball streaked across southeast Texas skies, creating a booming rumble when a meteor broke through the Earth’s atmosphere on Saturday. One woman claims a fragment crashed through her home. 

    According to NASA, the meteor became visible over Stagecoach, traveling southeast at roughly 35,000 miles per hour before breaking apart roughly 29 miles above the Earth’s surface just west of Cyprus station around 4:40 p.m. Central Time. 

    The fragmentation of the meteor, which NASA said weighed roughly a ton and had a 3-foot diameter, created a pressure wave that caused a loud booming noise. 

  • Mobile magic: Words that never fall from the tip of your tongue

    Mobile magic: Words that never fall from the tip of your tongue

    Let’s talk a bit about Mandela Effects, and specifically one strange Mandela Effect that I didn’t even know existed until tonight. I watched a video about how people say it existed, and once it became an issue in my mind, it started to bother me like it really did exist.


    Let me explain.


    You know those things above baby cribs? You know the word—a mobile. We’ve always called it a mobile. It’s always been known as a mobile. People for generations have said it’s a mobile. As a society we can agree on that, right?


    Until you don’t.


    Here’s the catch: tons of Reddit forums and different threads across the internet talk about how people remember there being a different word than mobile. They remember it to the point where it’s on the tip of their tongue, and they believe the word was something else entirely.
    For me.. and believe me, there are some Mandela Effects I really can’t explain.. this one immediately felt fanciful and a bit silly. The word was always mobile. I don’t remember anything different.


    Until I started thinking about how other people remember the word being different.
    Then I started to wonder if the word potentially was different, and maybe I’m the one who’s wrong. I nearly second-guessed my sanity. I started second-guessing the idea that the word was always mobile to the point where I was calling family members and asking friends what they thought the word was.


    They all convincingly responded: mobile.
    But when you sit with this idea long enough—when you let it dwell and fester—your brain starts to play tricks on you. You begin to wonder if it really was mobile, or if the people remembering a different word they can’t quite recall are actually right.


    I’m a big fan of the movie Pontypool. It’s one of my favorite zombie horror films, about a mild-mannered, somewhat egotistical radio host broadcasting in the middle of the night from a snowy town. I love that theme. But in the film, people in the town begin to get infected by a strange virus that spreads through language. Words stop meaning what they should, and people begin to lose their understanding of them.
    It’s kind of like that old Twilight Zone episode from the 1980s called “Wordplay.” The one where a man slowly goes nuts while the entire world starts using words in ways that make no sense to him.


    There’s something about forgetting words that’s genuinely frightening.


    Maybe it’s because if you’ve seen Alzheimer’s or dementia in your family, there’s a real horror in forgetting words and forgetting things. Forgetting so much that you eventually become a vessel that feels empty.. without the material that used to fill your mind.


    But Pontypool is all about language breaking down. In that movie it’s a zombie virus, of course, you have to make it scary somehow.

    But the idea of words changing their meaning, people losing vocabulary, or even losing language entirely… that really gets under my skin.
    And it probably does for you too.


    It’s strange how something so benign and mundane can somehow still be so terrifying.
    And that’s what makes this Mandela Effect a little eerie.


    It’s not the usual example like the Berenstain Bears, or the story about Sinbad supposedly making a genie movie that he now says never existed. Instead, this one is about the most basic words we’ve known since babyhood.


    And babies learn the word mobile, too… right?


    Or was it something different?

  • The Antarctic ‘ghost ship’

    The Antarctic ‘ghost ship’

    There is video and photos of a ‘ghost ship’ sailing near Antarctica flying around on social media..

    With AI and fakery abundant online, it is a moment to take a grain or even full shaker of salt when you look at it..

    But interesting, no?

    Even more interesting.. it’s probably quite literally a REAL SHIP that is sailing the cold and ferocious waters near the continent..

    It looks slightly like the famed ship that sailed at the end of the GOONIES…

    It was taken by people inside windows of a cruise ship..

  • Phantom of the Bubba

    Phantom of the Bubba

    *** since this post is written many days ago more information has come out stating that it was just a humorous conversation and not an implication that anything occurred between Donald Trump and Bill clinton. You can read more about that in the advocate here. In the meantime for posterity here’s the original report that we wrote then ***


    What a weird day in news and politics.. reporters have been apprehensive about sharing or reporting this but the internet has gone wild with Trump and Jeffrey Epstein and now Bill Clinton connections..

    One of the emails released, from Epstein’s brother Mark Epstein, has gone viral. In it, Mark speculates if Putin has a photo of “Trump blowing Bubba.”

    The mention of the President “blowing Bubba” has caused a storm on social media, as ‘Bubba’ is the nickname of former President Bill Clinton, who is also alleged to have been associated with Epstein.

    But people have taken it and molded it into thr political shocker worthy of a Trump Season 2 plot shift..

    Drudge was in his glory mockinga Trump and also Clinton–hardening back to what got Drudge famous to begin with in the late 90s..

    Meanwhile Trump raised eyebrows along with the volume at the White House…

    Politico correspondent Jake Taylor noted on Friday afternoon that music from “The Phantom of the Opera” was playing so loudly it could be heard outside the White House. The president is said to be a notorious fan of Broadway show tunes and enjoys playing DJ at events.

  • Cue the pun: Monkeys business

    Cue the pun: Monkeys business

    LoRemember a couple of years ago in Danville, Pennsylvania, when that truck full of monkeys crashed and they got loose for several days? Those monkeys were supposedly carrying some kind of virus, and the whole town was on edge while they ran around before finally being caught. Wild times.

    Well, it’s happening again, this time in Mississippi.

    Authorities there say several monkeys “have been destroyed,” but three are still on the loose after a truck carrying them crashed on Tuesday.

    At first, the Jasper County Sheriff’s Department posted on Facebook that the rhesus monkeys were carrying Hepatitis C, herpes, and COVID, and were considered aggressive toward humans … meaning anyone handling them needed to wear protective gear.

    But later, the sheriff’s office clarified those comments with a statement from Tulane University, confirming the monkeys were not infected after all.

    Tulane University says they’ll be sending a team tomorrow to collect the remaining monkeys still in cages.

    As of right now, police say three monkeys are still on the loose.

    Shock drop.. mystery object hits window..

    10,000 Foot Drop — Pilot Injured as Windshield Shatters Midflight!

    A United Airlines flight from Denver to Los Angeles was forced to make an emergency landing in Salt Lake City on October 16, 2025, after the windshield of the Boeing 737 MAX 8 suddenly shattered midair.

    Reports indicate that the plane dropped nearly 10,000 feet before stabilizing. One of the pilots suffered minor injuries from flying debris and shattered glass as the cockpit became littered with fragments.

    Early speculation points to a possible meteorite strike or space debris impact, though officials haven’t confirmed a cause.

    Despite the terrifying ordeal, the plane landed safely, and all 140 passengers and crew were reported safe.

  • Welcome to #Mallworld .. don’t forget to wipe your feet. And stick around a while

    Welcome to #Mallworld .. don’t forget to wipe your feet. And stick around a while

    So it’s October, it’s that creepy time of year. Bear with us on this one. We have written tons about malls over the years, the death of the mall.. and now we are writing about the birth of something new: A #Mallworld that people all over the real world are saying they have mapped out in their dreams…

    x x x

    At the time this is written, we are drenching our minds in the ‘creepy time of year’ stories.. Sometimes the creepy lasts all year..

    Algorithms have given us a bit more hairs on arms raised up with this.. there’s something called Mall World.. Not sure if you .. or quite the opposite maybe you’ve had dreams about this place. Lots of others say they they.

    We will give you the bird’s eye view of this interesting paranormal tale that people have suddenly been weaving online. It has been brewing under the surface of social media platforms for a while. While it reads like a Creepypasta, this one seems to have allies that call it true and people are saying, unless fiction, they have actually walked the floors of MallWorld..

    It began to really evolve a few months ago.. and now a TikTok user has drawn it!

    WELCOME TO MALLWORLD. DON’T FORGET TO WIPE YOUR FEET


    A hand-drawn “Mall World” map has been circulating from TikTok creators who claim recurring dreams of the same sprawling complex. One widely shared version was posted by a creator Tiltonica whose map (featuring labeled zones like a non-functional highway and “incoming tsunami”) was re-uploaded and discussed in r/TheMallWorld on Reddit, triggering a wave of “I’ve seen this place too” replies.

    Other TikTokers and users of other socials have posted their own long-running Mall World dream accounts. A recent roundup noted the sudden spike in posts and stitched videos comparing similar dream landmarks.

    Lately, with people either loving the tale and wanting in, or people genuinely believing they are experiencing this mass dream hallucination, there are plans online between people to try meeting up and talking to each other in Mall World–and many who are saying they are doing it already!

    Some people claim that those who visit Mall World were the same who were in the famous Gate program in the 1980s and 90s for gifted students in schools across America..

    She is also selling her hand drawn Mall World map for $3 a pop..

    OPENING THE GATES TO MALLWORLD


    GATE stands for “Gifted and Talented Education,” a catch-all label for United States school services that boast they will accelerate or enrich curricula for students who test in roughly the top percentiles… GATE grew out of mid-late 20th-century pushes to serve advanced learners.. think the 1972 federal Marland Report, the 1983 reform manifesto A Nation at Risk, and the 1988 Jacob K. Javits Act, which framed gifted education as mainstream schooling and not a covert CIA or Department of Energy project. Experts will tell us, that despite what people collectively claim, there is no evidence connecting GATE to any nefarious alphabet agency mind control tests.. BUT…. popular comparisons to Stranger Things draw instead on real, but separate, Cold-War history like CIA projects MKULTRA and the Army’s “Gateway Process” memo about altered-state training… documents that are declassified but unrelated to K-12 gifted classes. (And if you’re into this stuff, you may like our CIA reading room  )

    The GATE program has long been the talk of a number of conspiracies.. Some believed that the GATE program was just a breeding ground for government testing on children to see who had paranormal gifts.

    Others say it was just an education mission and a mundane government operation.. And if it was not, what was the government trying to do? Create super soldiers? Future scientists? CIA operatives? Black Ops? Psychological warfare? Remote viewing? Crushing a Coke can with a brain? Certainly the government never tried any of that.. Oh wait.. Maybe check our that CIA reading room for sure..

    A lot of people truly believe they were being recruited.. for something.

    Well, enter the Mall World where, it is claimed, those same people who were in this GATE are suddenly being thrust into the dream world about this liminal space with no exit.. A place with elaborate storefronts and a hospital and toiletries, and all these different endless rooms think the back rooms, but just with more things in them.

    The dive we did on this was deep–so much so that we were confronted by several accounts that put so much faith in Mall World, there was even debate to whether it was good or Satanic to be comfortable being there..

    It does not matter if YOU believe Mall World exists.. people do.


    We consider ourselves skeptics–not skeptics for the sake of just denying things for fun, but instead asking hard questions and looking at evidence of claims..

    In this case of Mall World, it is a narrative now being claimed by so many–but are they feeding off of each other, and using the map from Tiltonica as a jumping off point to take the story where they want regardless of truth?

    Your dreams are your own .. and you often remembers pieces of them, and sometimes nothing at all. It is open for perception and false memory as well.

    I myself have never been to Mall World in my dream.. I have had dreams where I explored places in my own home or schools that don’t exist in real life. But no dream.. no musack.. no empty stores. As we have lamented, we miss the real malls of our waking life..

    But is there some other theory here that can work? Carl Jung had a theory that mass consciousness dreams that can tap into the collective unconscious, a shared reservoir of universal human experiences, symbols, and archetypes, rather than being solely personal…

    Remember when COVID began (I know you don’t really want to) .. back in March 2020, we and many others wrote about people having a collective experience of bad dreams.

    There were also reports back in 2020 about the weird Willamete Valley Dream survey.. Unless we missed it, this still remains unsolved as to what it was for.

    Nightmares and Mallscapes

    This could all be just a huge mass awakening–or people are having fun with Mall World and it is just a big new Internet fiction tale.

    But when you read something like this REDDIT comment, you will realize that it not only is considered true by many writing these posts, but they are also angry that that Tilton video and Mall World concept is going as mainstream as it is..

    Nobody should go follow that Creator on tiktok. She just made a video saying how she doesn’t care if it goes mainstream and ruins it for everybody and she doesn’t care if the community crashes and burns.

    As said before.. whether you believe in this or not, it doesn’t matter. Others do. And they are mapping out a new world that exists only when they sleep..
