Why Nobody Trusts the Mainstream Media

The One Truth We Can't Deny

All human action is taken to ignore or avoid the anxiety generated by the inevitability of death.

Hey Stupid! This Stuff Will Kill You! Was that clear enough?

What The Hell Is Going On?!!!!

In the past 72 hours or so we have seen in the news the Miami Zombie attack, a man in Ohio charges with chewing the face off a live kitten, a New Jersey man skinning himself alive and then throwing his own intestines at police, and now a Canadian case where a psychopath has killed and dismembered a person on camera and mailed some of the body parts to the major political parties in the capital. Google the stories, they are horrific. Is this really the end times? This blog has always had a (mostly) tongue in cheek approach to the idea that we are living in the end-times but this lunacy is really making me wonder if there is not some larger evil at work in the world. Seriously, what's going on? Don't comment below if you are going to say "it's the drugs" I don't want to hear anymore bullshit excuses about bath salts. I don't want to hear any excuses about the internet being the cause of this mania. Listen to me carefully there is something lurking at the edges of our society, maybe I should say there WAS something lurking, now it is some kind of full blown infestation. I will ruminate on the developments over the next 24 hours and be back with a more thorough examination of the situation. Sleep well (with the lights on) Apocalyptoids.

Mass Animal Deaths Continue

More and more seals are washing up on New Jersey beaches recently, according to reports given to the Marine Mammal Stranding Center in Brigantine, N.J.

There have been 26 seal strandings in New Jersey since November, sources say. Fourteen of those strandings happened in February.

While it is not unusual for seals to get stranded this time of year, there are more than usual showing up on Jersey shore beaches, according to a spokeswoman for the Brigantine center.


REDONDO BEACH (KTLA) -- Authorities say the millions of dead fish that washed up in King Harbor near Redondo Beach are not the victims of foul play.

The dead fish, mostly sardines along with anchovies and mackerel, are apparently floating up to the surface from the ocean floor.

KTLA's Sky5 captured images of the fish completely coating the water's surface in Basins 1 and 2 of the north side of King Harbor.

"All evidence points to oxygen deprivation as cause of death," says California Department of Fish and Game spokesman Andrew Hughan.
