A behind-the-scenes look at the INCREDIBLE animatronics built for Alien: Romulus by Legacy Effects! It makes me so happy seeing practical effects used in this day and age when CG dominates the market.

And this is why D&D is one of my all-time favorite films. Practical effects are amazing in this. There needs to be more love for Legacy Effects and more use of Practical effects in general.

You Are Being Haunted — and Science Can’t Save You.

You are being haunted. And you don’t even know it.

Not by ghosts. Not by demons. But by something far worse.

Something that follows you. From inside you. From before you were conscious — and long after you think you’re dead.

I. What Follows You Without Footsteps?

In quantum physics, there’s a term:

Superposition — the idea that particles can exist in multiple states at once, until observed.

Observation collapses the wave. But what collapses you?

Answer: Your shadow.

You think it’s a trick of the light. But in quantum terms, it’s something else:

A probability field. A projection. A permanently entangled copy of your presence in spacetime.

Not metaphor. Not poetry. Physics.

II. It Comes Back. Every Time.

You can try to change.

Move cities.

Get therapy.

Shave your head and call it rebirth.

But the shadow doesn’t care.

Because the shadow isn't a symptom. It’s a recording.

A data echo of everything you’ve been. And everything you're capable of being again.

If you’ve ever tried to escape yourself — Only to circle back into old habits, old wounds, old lusts — That wasn’t weakness. It was recursion.

And recursion is physics. Not failure.

III. Quantum Haunting Is Real. Here's the Data.

Not allegory.

Literal evidence exists.

Hiroshima, 1945.

When the atomic bomb dropped, thousands vaporized in microseconds. But their shadows did not.

人影の石 (Hitokage no Ishi) — The Human Shadow Etched in Stone.

A woman sitting near the Sumitomo Bank. Vaporized by thermal radiation.

But the stone steps behind her were bleached — except where her body shielded them.

Her final shape. Frozen into reality. A dark imprint of her last moment of life.

They call it: The Human Shadow of Death. The Blast Shadow.

But let’s be precise:

It wasn’t just a stain. It was a recording. Of presence. Of heat. Of witness.

And here’s what’s worse:

You’re leaving them, too. Right now.

IV. What Science Still Won’t Admit

There is no unified theory explaining consciousness.

We can split atoms. We can map genomes. But we can’t explain:

Why you dream of your ex.

Why trauma shows up as smell.

Why some memories scream without sound.

Why the past lives in your body.

There is no consensus on how the mind locates itself inside the body.

But evidence suggests:

There’s something watching you from within the field of you. Something that records every shame, lust, betrayal, fear — not emotionally, but energetically.

Your trauma? Not stored in the body. Encoded.

In the wavelength of your biofield. In the negative space of your choices. In your shadow print.

V. The Observer Effect (and Why You’re Fucked)

Quantum mechanics says:

Observation changes the outcome.

If that’s true…

What happens when you observe yourself?

Guilt. Self-hatred. Shame. Depression.

Those aren’t emotions. They’re echoes. They're your own wave function collapsing on itself.

And the more aware you become of who you’ve been — The darker the shadow that stands behind you.

VI. No One Escapes. Not Even The Enlightened.

Go meditate. Go fast. Go run barefoot through forests chanting mantras.

It won’t matter.

Even monks report psychological possession during shadow integration.

Carl Jung, the man who coined the term “the shadow self,” wrote:

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life — and you will call it fate.”

But Jung didn’t know quantum field theory.

If he did, he would’ve known:

You’re not just fighting patterns. You’re resisting a mirrored field embedded into the architecture of time.

And here's the kicker: You destroy it — you destroy yourself.

VII. The Human Shadow is Not Just Metaphor — It's Mechanism

Remember Hiroshima.

The shadow was left behind. Because the body absorbed the light.

That’s not poetic. That’s radiological fact.

Let me rephrase it for clarity:

The body was erased. The shadow stayed.

And still we ask:

Is the soul what survives death?

What if it’s not the soul?

What if it’s the shadow?

What if what stays behind isn’t divine — but undeniable?

What if you die… And what remains is everything you couldn’t face?

VIII. Ladies and Gentlemen, Meet Your Quantum Stalker

You call it:

Guilt

Anxiety

The past

A bad habit

But science has a term for it too:

Quantum entanglement.

The particles that make you… you Are never alone.

And if they once interacted with trauma? They are forever linked to the energy of that event.

Even when you leave the place. Even when the person dies. Even when you heal.

The field doesn’t forget.

And neither does your shadow.

IX. Why You Should Be Scared

Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer told the story of the bomb.

But not the blast shadows.

Hollywood won't show you the real horror:

People permanently burned into stone — by light.

That’s not science fiction. That’s what’s left when energy remembers.

And energy always remembers.

You? You think you’re safe.

But the field has you documented.

Every word. Every orgasm. Every betrayal.

There is no deleting your shadow.

X. Final Revelation

You're haunted.

By what you've done. By what you've denied. By the part of you that watched you sin — and never blinked.

This is not metaphor. This is physics.

You are not being followed. You are being mirrored.

And the only way to kill your shadow?

Is to never cast one again. But to stop casting one…

You must destroy all light.

Including yourself.

And so it comes back.

Every time.

🧠 Call to Action

You are being watched. By a part of you that remembers what you’d rather forget.

Reblog if the idea of your own shadow now makes your skin crawl. Reblog if the physics of guilt suddenly makes sense. Reblog because maybe you’re haunted too — and you didn’t even know it.

⚠️ LEGAL DISCLAIMER:

This post is psychological horror, quantum theory satire, trauma field exploration, and sociocultural commentary. It is protected under the laws of literature, symbolic science, and emotionally accurate terror. If you’re uncomfortable, that’s your shadow blinking back.

It forever irritates me that Anet calls Eir old and doesn't put their money where their mouth is.

We could have had this if they weren't cowards.

OPERATION FOX

The Caruso Residence. Del Sol Valley.

DULCE: Yeah, we’re going to be here a while.

ANTONIO: I told you we’re l-

DULCE: -late. I told you we’re not late. People don’t show up to parties on the dot despite what the invitation says. We want to avoid suspicion, don’t we?

ANTONIO: Yes. However, then what is the purpose of putting the start time on an invitation?

DULCE: That’s just how it is. See, this is how I can tell you’re old. Boomer.

ANTONIO: I’m not old? I’m 24?

DULCE: WHAT?? How? Don’t lawyers spend, like, half their lives in school?

ANTONIO: ...Most, maybe.

DULCE: No way! Were you some incredible child prodigy???

ANTONIO: You could say that. Anyway, we’re getting off track.

DULCE: Oh yeah. [Speaks into earpiece.] Fuego. Chaparro. How’s everything looking?

Matthew: Perfect. There are plenty of people coming in. You guys should be able to blend right in with the crowd.

MATTHEW: Better start now.

GUILLERMO: We got your backs.

My take on this trend!

[choccy-milky]

eloise for my fellow gremlin girlie @myokk!! so happy to have your beautiful traditional art in this fandom and that i got to see clora in it as well 💖😭😭and since it was your art of clora that inspired me to do the HL charas in ghibli style, ofc i had to give eloise the same treatment 🥰 (and ive discovered that drawing fat puffy braids in ghibli style is SOOO satisfying, highly recommend😋👌👌)

Mass Contact Game Studios for Dragon Age

In light of today's unfortunate news regarding the Dragon Age series, I have come up with a far-fetched idea to (maybe) save the series.

It's simple: go to the "Contact" pages of game studios such as Larian Studios (Baldur's Gate 3) and Bethesda (Fallout series) and submit a suggestion along these lines:

"Hello, I have a suggestion. Please consider buying the rights to the Dragon Age series as well as hiring the multitude of writers and developers who got fired from Bioware."

Larian Studios has a general contact box you can use, but for Bethesda and other game studios you will have to email them directly. Contact whichever studios you like but I recommend specifically reaching out to studios which make role-play games as they would be the best equipped to handle the Dragon Age series.

You can add whatever details to it that you like; "I am a big fan of the Dragon Age series" etc. but the content is basically the same. A request to essentially save Dragon Age by moving it to another game studio.

Honestly this probably won't work, but Larian Studios revived the Baldur's Gate series (which was previously owned by Bioware) from the dead so it seems to me like the best shot at rescuing Dragon Age.
