  5. The disturbing history of body snatchers.

    The Men Who Stole Bodies for a Living Fresh graves didn’t always stay closed. In the 18th and 19th centuries, there was a growing demand for human bodies. Not from criminals. From medical schools. Doctors and anatomy students needed corpses to study the human body, practice surgery, and advance medical knowledge. But legally available bodies were limited. So a new profession emerged in the shadows: Body snatchers. Also known as resurrection men. A Market Built on the Dead At the […]

  6. The Strange History of Mourning Jewelry

    Ordinary objects. Disturbing origins. Jewelry is usually associated with beauty. Luxury. Romance. Celebration. But during the Victorian era, some jewelry carried something far more personal. Human hair from the dead. Locks of hair were woven into rings, necklaces, bracelets, and brooches as a way to remember lost loved ones. And for many people at the time, it wasn’t considered strange. It was considered comforting. Grief Worn in Public During the 19th century, mourning rituals […]

  7. The Strange History of Victorian Coffin Bells

    Ordinary objects. Disturbing origins. Few fears are more terrifying than being buried alive. And during the 18th and 19th centuries, that fear became so widespread that people began inventing devices designed for one purpose: Helping the “dead” call for help from inside the grave. Among the strangest of these inventions were Victorian coffin bells. A Fear That Spread Across Society Before modern medicine, confirming death was not always simple. Doctors had fewer tools, limited […]

  12. CW: Blood, gore and dismemberment

    A woman who wished more than anything to stop the genocide runs.... To save the people of the Underground... But all an impossible wish did was make death forever out of her grasp.

  13. From an opinion piece: The recent #shooting in #Minneapolis is so deeply #disturbing not only because a woman was killed but also because after she was shot, a #physician on the scene was #prevented by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from #rendering #aid.” usatoday.com/story/opinion/voi

  15. Are you fucking kidding me??!!

    I thought this was some spoofed AI attempt at humor, but this is real, from the Dept. of Labor!! "Project Firewall"

    Here is the American Dream... Everyone is, of course, white in all of the imagery for this campaign, and here we see the happy white family sitting in church -- demure, begloved housewife sitting in her place, watching her bonneted little girl adoringly before going back home to tend to the housework and get her husband's pipe and slippers ready, no doubt.

    Apparently this actually is a real campaign - "Project Firewall." I knew that these backwards thinking nutcases wanted a return to the "traditional values" of the 50s -- rights for women and non-white men stamped out and medical technology pushed back 75 years by RFK Jr -- but I didn't know they LITERALLY wanted to go back to 1950s in all visible respects!

    I guess I'm surprised to be surprised.

  16. This ad is fucked up on so many levels.

    A HALO game screenshot calling illegal immigrants "the flood."

    First of all -- stay out of our games for your recruitment tactics. But, beyond that, The Flood (basically a zombie apocalypse in the game's story) can only be defeated by eliminating all that it consumes, namely humans, citizens, people.

    Creepy, offensive, and ill-conceived.

  17. This #Christian #pastor preached a #sermon while pointing an #AR15 at the #congregation

    Pastor #PhilipThornton of #LegacyFaithChurch in #Harrisburg, PA told his congregation they needed to go all out when spreading their #faith.

    The illustration he used was deeply #disturbing. And it would no doubt have caused a national firestorm if this were a non- #Christian church.

  21. I had an "interesting" encounter with a road-raging #asshole yesterday. He didn't straight-up try to #murder me, but it was #disturbing. There was a lot more to it than I will show here, because I want to keep this short, I only included the latter part.

    He's really a #stereotype; #unkempt, looks kind of like a meth-head, drives an absolute #POS #Chevrolet (Malibu, I think) sedan in what I assume #GM must have called "Stewed Dirt" colour, and wears a wifebeater for extra flair.

    Before the video starts, he'd been ahead of me and was braking and weaving and giving me the #finger out the window and #yelling out the window and all the rest of it. I moved over to the right-hand lane so I wasn't directly behind him anymore. Where the video starts, he'd moved left into a turning lane, and slows for the light. As I pass him - I was continuing straight - I move back into the left lane, and he then stomps on the gas and pulls out of the turning lane so he's behind me.

    At the light, he comes within a few inches of rear-ending me, deliberately, all while #gesticulating and moving over to be in my driver's side mirror, etc.

    After I get going, he flies by me on the right (I'm not driving slowly) and then pulls in ahead of me and slams on his #brakes hard enough to lock up and #smoke the #tires.

    If you're in the #Regina / #YQR area, watch out for this guy. His #SK plate is "527 MZJ", and he looks like a winning contestant from "Who's The Biggest #Loser?".

  23. #WARNING! #DISTURBING! #Russian #Soldiers last cigarette: guys not cheering on anyone's death #war is a #international #tragedy usually organized by those that never go to fight #oligarchs #rich man #profit while #poor man die in #war, fight the #rich #profiteer the #power hungry, not the poor #smedleybutler #war is a #racket #Ukraine #Russia #drone #drones #catastrophe

  24. Blows my mind that people are thankful that someone like a CEO of a company is dead, or wishing death upon CEO's.

    These folks are just like us in the fact that they are humans, have families and so much more.

    How can someone be thankful that humans are murdering humans?

    Is this really what our world is becoming?
