  1. Essay von Steffen Greiner

    I WANT TO BELIEVE – Agent Scully, Erich von Däniken und die Paranoia der Neunziger

    Ein Kind geht in die Bücherei und entdeckt die Paranoia. Es sind die Neunziger: Im TV läuft „Akte X“, am Kiosk seziert das P.M.-Magazin Aliens, Dan Brown schreibt „Illuminati“. Das Internet ist noch jung und langsam, aber schon uferlos.

    Eine düstere Ahnung schiebt sich unter den bunten Fortschrittsoptimismus von Spice Girls und Rotgrün. Am Ende stürzen Türme. Eine Spurensuche in die Zeit, als das paranoide Denken Mainstream wurde und wie sie uns noch heute prägt. Und nicht zuletzt eine Annäherung an einen großen Protagonisten dieses Misstrauens: Erich von Däniken, der im Januar verstorben ist.

  2. If the last three years were any indication, Today Was The Day I cycled to work (a 24km round trip), and probably won’t get around to it until early next year. I live in hope that I’ll do better this year, though.

  3. RE: metalhead.club/@CalyxWorks/115

    Someone bought one of these before I’d announced the posters were available – but anyway, here I go… posters and shirts are here, and stickers are on the way.

    It’s getting harder and harder, but I still want to believe. 🖤

  4. Here’s the proof of the poster – it’s looking good!

    10x14”, suitable, as they say, for framing. And hanging in a secret basement office.

  5. I’m also offering an art print of this illustration, and stickers are on the way. 🔥

  6. Fox Mulder’s “I WANT TO BELIEVE” X-Files t-shirt, with the torch of the Statue of Liberty replacing that flying saucer.

    You get it.

    Btw I used to make EVERY shirt black, but I've softened up, and now have shirts made in a variety of colors. And also black!

    As always, if there's another style or garment you were hoping for, my DMs are open. :)

  7. The existence of virtual machines implies that, as unbelievable as it might sound, a real machine must be somewhere out there.

  8. @ApostateEnglishman I believe the victim was also calling for the Epstein files to be fully released and would make an excellent martyr for the far-right. That's two motives for somebody: but who has access to trained snipers and could instruct them... Hmm..

  10. World UFO Day. Roswell Anniversary. And one very attractive alien. 👽🔥

    She came in peace.
    She smiled.
    And then she conquered.

    Today marks the anniversary of the Roswell incident... probably the most famous "oops we dropped a saucer" moment in history.
    Also, it’s World UFO Day. Because let’s be real... we’re probably not alone—and if we are, that’s the real horror story.

    Remember V – The Visitors?
    Deceptively beautiful aliens hovering above our cities, whispering sweet promises, hiding reptilian truths behind flawless skin and hypnotic eyes.
    Honestly... if this is what the invasion looks like, I might not resist too hard.

    I want to believe.
    Not just because of Roswell.
    But because the idea that we’re alone in this vast, absurdly complex universe... feels far less likely... and way more boring.

    Also... watching V tonight. Still undecided if I’ll go with the deliciously vintage original or the sleeker, darker remake. Either way....lizards and lies, baby. 🐍📺

  15. Mistodon: a riff on the X-Files' #IWantToBelieve, this animated #DurDraw piece of #textmode art by MC Fresher depicts an alien abduction captioned with "I Want To Leave". This piece was included in the new science fiction-themed MIST0525 artpack collection.

  16. Only managed a blurry picture, but it’s a Tesla with a red “Ford” logo over the Tesla logo and the word “Diesel” over the model number.

    Up top it says “You can run but you can’t hide”

    The bumper sticker says “I eat chapstick”

  17. Actually, why rumored Apple OS'es redesign must be bad? Maybe it'll actually give us a little bit of material, depth back?

    Even if based on visionOS - some cues might be just that. Like added shapes around buttons?

  18. After years of wanting to run a high strangeness/UFOlogy campaign, I finally bit the bullet and started working on one for my first non-solo Unnamed playtest! Anyone got any fun inspiration they could link? It'll take place in Rumsey, KY in 1978 (less than 100 km from Kelly-Hopkinsville!).

  19. Auf meiner Suche nach weiterem Alien-themed-Death-Metal (#BloodIncantation, #Hypocrisy) bin ich eher zufällig auf Tomb Mold gestoßen. Merkmale:
    - wohltuend ungetriggertes Drumming
    - Frickel- aber auch Prog-Gitarren
    - zweckdienliche Vocals

    Full Album gibt's im YouTube-Stream: youtube.com/watch?v=rLHtdAy-h6

  22. Muistatteko vielä, kun tragikomedia #Länsimetro teki valmistumistaan?

    Oli kaikkia tämmösiä hauskoja meemejä, ja jengi teetti paitoja, hihamerkkejä, vaikka mitä näistä.
