I'm sorry...

I was about to explain the meme to someone when my "don't uncritically spread misinformation" alarms started going off. as I looked into it I became more disillusioned with the varsity of the commonly cited story. and then I needed to tell other people.

in context, it is a kinda funny joke, though, and I think that's lost when treated as it was.

We'll still always have "people die when they are dead!" at least.

hopefully xD

    I came to a realization earlier today that kinda shook me to my fucking core...

    I don't... think that the original ''Just according to keikaku.'' screenshot is genuine. like, there are so many places that just state that it was from an actual fansub of Death Note, but no one can source that claim (or even find anyone whose even claimed to have seen it). I've also believed the same for the longest time, and I don't know why, because looking at it now, it's very obviously a joke.

    As a sapphic transfem I should definitely be offended by the whitekitten natural_order series but idk girl these are just are just extremely fucking funny to me. I can't get over how the men are literally wearing shirts that say "NATURAL ORDER" on them while they're fucking the women who also immediately start wearing these shirts as soon as they've become impregnated like some fucking Heathcliff ham helmet shit. Absolutely hysterical.

    little does everyone know, that's actually the reaction she's going for.

    If transparent stuff is so cool, why don't we have transparent clothes? Checkmate, liberals.

    so, I've got this old audio cassette knocking around somewhere, got it from a school rummage sale when I was like five. it was supposed to go with a set of slide projector slides, but if we had asked either someone already purchased those before us or they just got lost or something, in whatever case, we never got those. I just had this weird old cassette with a guy talking about photographs of bugs that I'd never be able to look at.

    now this probably wouldn't be the sort of, like, borderline foundational memory if it weren't for the description of two back-to-back slides:

    ...
    *ding*

    *tk-shh-t'kk*

    Here's a picture of grasshopper chweing on a blade of grass.

    it was fairly large and stationary, much larger than most spotlights. and, from my experience, with high-power lights like that you can usually see the, like, profile of the beam all the way light refracting off of small particles or the moisture in the air or whatever.

    the only explanation I can come up with is that it was just garden variety suburban light pollution, just a strangely concentrated, very blue instance of it, caused by some group of nearby buildings. the biggest candidate is the medical centre which would make sense for the timing, since they'd obviously stay open past midnight.

    as I'm writing this, I've made my way several miles northwest and am now situated, as far as I can tell, directly under the glowing patch of sky.

    there is still no fully determinable terrestrial source.

    Perhaps a spotlight. Road work or some festival ground can have those focused intense bright lights, and one of them could be pointed or reflected up onto the clouds. With the light at even a slight angle, the source can be a fair distance away on the ground from where it seems to be on the clouds.

    [...]

    it was lasting kinda long for it to have been any brief phenomenon like that, it was an hour or so from initially spotting it, then returning home, and then driving over to try to figure out the source.

    also, I don't think the paralax would make sense for it to be anything like that. I was able to go from seeing it about ~30° above the horizon to directly overhead in a matter of a couple miles. (although, I guess that was just the cloud layer reflecting/refracting the light from... wherever)

    so, went out at like an hour and a half before midnight (because I have a horrible sleep schedule and subpar time management skills).

    for most of the path I take, the view of the sky is obstructed, whether by trees along the path. about halfway though, however there is a street perpendicular to the path, its less constructive foliage provides an unobstructed view of the sky. out of the corner of my eye as I pass I see, perfectly framed by the palm trees on either side of the path...
