David Huggins

Artist David Huggins claims that when he was and still is visited by alien beings. Living with his family in rural Georgia, David began to experience encounters with aliens from another dimension at eight years old. He saw the typical grey aliens as well as “mantis-like” alien creatures and “hairy man” alien creatures.

There is one encounter that stands out though. He claims to have met an alien named Crescent to whom he lost his virginity at the age of 17. He says that Crescent took over his body and used him to breed over 60 alien hybrids.

David spends his days painting his encounters and his first love, Crescent.

The Surprising Rescue of Harrison Okene

In May, a tugboat with a crew of 12 was moving through choppy waters off the coast of Nigeria. The boat was towing an oil tanker when a sudden ocean swell or rogue wave slammed into the vessel, snapping the tow rope and capsizing the vessel at about 4:30 a.m. The ship eventually sunk down about 100 feet (30 meters).

After 3 days a diving crew was sent down to recover bodies when all of a sudden one of the diver’s shot back when a hand grabbed him. The diver was startled since that’s not exactly what he was expecting 100 ft down in the dark ocean. One of the crew members of the ship, Harrison Okene (cook), had survived for 60 hours. He had found an air pocket and waited to be rescued. He said that as listened to the sounds of sharks or other fish devouring the bodies of his crewmates, he began to lose hope. As the oxygen began to deplete, he was relieved to hear the sound of the rescuers and he waited to grab the hand of one of the divers as he approached the part of the boat he was trapped in.

Heaven’s Gate Suicide

Heaven’s Gate was a group of people that were led by Marshall Applewhite. It was a religious group that thought the Eart was about to be “recycled” and the only way to survive this was to leave ASAP. They decided to commit mass suicide. They believed if they committed mass suicide, they would be transported to a space-ship that was following the Hale-Bopp comet.

They also decided to wear the same brand of Nike Shoes (as seen in the pictures)

Im sure by now many of you have already read or heard about this Haaretz article that talks about how 82% of Israelis approve of the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.

That same poll also shows that nearly half, 47%, approve of the genocide and believe every Palestinian in Gaza should be killed.

The survey was conducted in March by Israeli scholar Tamir Sorek, a professor at Pennsylvania State University. He worked with the Israeli polling firm Geocartography Knowledge Group.

Most of the Israelis you come across are bad people. Almost all of them approve of the genocide in some shape or form.

These are the people who Palestinians have been dealing with. How does any normal person support these kind of ideologies? Makes me sick to my stomach

The Radium Girls were a famous group of women who worked as dial painters in the late 1910s to the 1920s. While there were dozens of women who worked in these factories, only a small group of women challenged the company they worked for over their illnesses, which they eventually came to believe (rightfully so) were due to the radium they worked with. All other medical professionals and owners of the companies were aware of the dangers, but failed to warn the dial-painters of the dangers of radium, which had previously been marketed as a miracle element. In fact, the luminosity it gave to one’s skin was considered beautiful and desirable.

The girls painted radium onto the dials of watches in the factories, and often tipped the brushes, still coated with radium, in their mouths. Other radium companies also faced lawsuits after the initial court case, as they had used similar procedures. Numerous girls died due to radiation poisoning, and their battle to recognize the source of their suffering was a long and arduous one. 

Kate Moore has written an excellent book about this topic, aptly named “The Radium Girls,” that I’m reading now. So far, I’d highly recommend. It embellishes points of view and some details to kind of keep the reader in the era, but it’s very well researched and written. There are some graphic descriptions of what happens to these girls, so be wary of that.

Nan Madol, a famous archaeological site located in Micronesia. A series of 92 artificial islands linked together by canals, this ancient ruined city was part of the long-standing Saudeleur Dynasty. Radiocarbon dating puts construction around 1180 AD, and likely influenced structures and cities on islands around it.

Eid Mubarak to all of you who are celebrating. I know it's hard to get in the spirit this year as so many Palestinians spend their Eid starving and in tents but I hope your Eid is full of peace and love. May we see a free Palestine by next Eid.

Their shared love of violent ethno-nationalism aside, Zionists and Hindutvas are two of the most unbearably annoying people you will ever meet.

Bring Her Back was a really good horror movie but also a taxing experience. Im not gonna spoil anything but there's a ton of gore and the story is emotionally brutal (for the lack of a better word).

I think the Philippou brothers did a phenomenal job with this one and if you're looking to go see this just know you're in for a ride. And if gore isn't your thing, you might wanna skip this one. There were so many scenes where I wanted to look away but the performances were so good that I just couldn't.

Mr Curly

Daniela Liverani started getting nose-bleeds, but chalked it up to a motor bike accident she previously had. She thought that the crash had resulted in a dark blood clot, but it wasn’t until she saw the blood clot moving that she realized it was something alive. 

She was in the shower when she noticed her “blood clot” wriggling. She went to the doctor where they used tweezers to remove her moving “blood clot.” It turned out that Daniela was housing a leech that was 3 inches long. She believes it crawled up her nose when she was backpacking in South East Asia….a month ago.

She named it Mr. Curly.

For the first time, a giant 20″ red leech was filmed slurping down a blue earthworm which was 27″ in length. The footage was captured by BBC filmmakers for the series ‘Wonders of the Monsoon.’

Dancing Plague of 1518

In July of 1518, a woman named referred to as Frau Troffea stepped into a narrow street in Strasbourg, France and began a fervent dancing vigil that lasted between four and six days. By the end of that week 34 more people had joined her and by the end of the month there was a crowd of 400. 

People didn’t stop dancing for days, weeks and even up to a month. People died of stroke, heart attacks, and exhaustion. It was a dancing plague. People assumed it was a disease caused by “hot blood.”

Historical documents such as physician notes, local/regional statements as well as notes issued by the Strasbourg city council all claimed this happened. “These people were not just trembling, shaking or convulsing; although they were entranced, their arms and legs were moving as if they were purposefully dancing." 

While there was no actual explanation given for why this happened, some beleive it to be a case of stress-induced psychosis.

Stranger Visions

Artist Heather Dewey-Hagborg takes DNA taken from chewed up gum, cigarette buds, and nail clippings she finds in public places(Brooklyn) to reproduce people’s faces.

After extracting the DNA from her samples, she focuses on specific genomic regions, sequences them and then enters the data into a computer program, which produces a model of the face of the person who tossed that item onto the ground.

She then uses a 3D printer to  sculptures of the faces that look very much like death masks.
