For my 3D production class I had to create a three shot short that was a remake of an existing movie scene- with muppets. I ran out of time to do the particle water effects, but this is basically Pacific Rim anyway.
The first episode of “Westworld” is a kind of endurance test in watching sexual violence against women.
We see a protagonist, Dolores (played by Evan Rachel Wood), experience one horrific day in a constant loop: after a peaceful trip into town she returns home to find her mother and father murdered. Her beau, Teddy, is killed right in front of her. She is dragged into a nearby barn, screaming, where she is raped offscreen. She’s forced to relive that trauma over and over again ― and we live it with her.
Before “Westworld” had even premiered on HBO, its pilot episode sparked criticism because of the general overabundance of sexual violence against women on the network, particularly on “Game of Thrones.” Critics wondered, was “Westworld,” like “Game of Thrones,” merely going to use the nudity and sexual violence of women as a gimmick, as a tool for shock value? Or was it going to delve deeper?
In August, during HBO’s TCA presentation, one of the show’s creators Lisa Joy responded to the concern. “Sexual violence is an issue we take seriously,” she said.
“[The show is] about exploring the crime, establishing the crime and the torment of the characters within this story and exploring their stories hopefully with dignity and depth.”
The problem that so many movies and TV shows run into, that “Game of Thrones” suffers from, is the fact that rape is so often used as a plot device, a way to move the story along. The aftermath of rape, the impact that it has on the inner world of a character, is rarely ― if ever ― truly unpacked.
well ok???? here’s me next to the entrance to my apartment??? why the heck would i lie about my height??? I DON’T ENJOY BUMPING MY HEAD INTO EVERYTHING JUST BECAUSE THE WORLD IS BUILT FOR HOBBITS
Mad Max Fury Road is the best because it screams in your face “HEY LOOK HERE’S A V8 INTERCEPTOR AND A MASSIVE FUCKING TRUCK COVERED IN SKULLS AND A GUITAR FLAMETHROWER AND BIG ACTION SEQUENCES AND EXPLOSIONS, ISN’T THAT COOL??????” and then it gently takes your shoulder and whispers in your ear “but you know what’s cooler? respecting women & dismantling the patriarchy”
checking the timestamps, all of sexygirlmax2019’s posts have been made today they’re formatted impeccably like bot messages and posts but they’re just a little off
this isn’t a bot this is a human controlling a blog acting like a bot all of the links?? aren’t porn links mysterious bit.ly links to this site: https://max2019.neocities.org/ if you “click here to instantly transport” you get taken to > /seraphim.html if you click it again > /cherubim.html again > /thrones.html …which returns a “Page Not Found” error
Porn Bot ARG
So I ran the mp3 you could get from /cherubim.html through a sstv scanner and got this back
Which is just straight up the image from /seraphim.html.
But the it’s weird, when I went back to /cherubim.html the page changed from a picture and an mp3 download to this:
And when I clicked on that I was taken to /firstsphere/thrones.html which looked like this:
When I clicked on THAT I was taken to /secondsphere/dominions.html and greeted to this disturbing image:
The last eye was apparently clickable which took me to /secondsphere/powers.html which looked like this:
the text on it reads: “H.U.R.L
Hierarchy of Uniform Resource Locators”
??????????
So /dominions.html just changed to this:
and /powers.html changed to:
BUT since making this update, the file for the image is no longer there! So it looks like:
Clicking on the (now missing) picture, it takes you to /secondsphere/light1.html which looks like:
Clicking that takes you to /secondsphere/light2.html, whick looks like how /powers.html looks:
Clicking that takes you back to /secondsphere/light1.html, which has JUST NOW gotten worse:
/secondsphere/light2.html now has the same image as
/secondsphere/light1.html but it now takes you to /secondsphere/light3.html which looks like:
which takes you to /secondsphere/virtues.html which is currently blank.
/secondsphere/virtues.html updated and now looks like:
Clicking on the image currently takes you to /thirdsphere/principalities.html which looks like:
The text reads
“Struggle with thy doubts! Cast them aside! Forsake not thy faith! Sickness will not take thee!”
and the image is a gif titled wrestling
the next page is titled /archangels.html; currently blank
someone get night mind on this
So I tried to talk to her and I’m a little nervous now. Do you think this person might actually be in danger….?
I may overthink a lot, but this could be something bad..
UPDATE: There is now a /thirdsphere/angels.html page
(Added both still image and gif)
It is a gif much like the ones above, with the angel glitching out and disappearing and such. Nothing has been updated beyond this as of yet.
it says “found you” in the tab title
it says “it hurts” if you hover over that image
so after clicking that photo i was taken to this?
then if you click this it takes you to the “child growth page and then clicking again takes you to this blog https://lovely5500.tumblr.com/ theres not much there but they do mention something called “enricks” so after going to google i found a site called http://enricks.angelfire.com/
clicking on the womans face causes the text to distort
its also worth noting theirs a code at the bottom of the page
clicking “enricks” takes you to this page
if you click “bypass login” your taken to this page
Help the max link updated with a hear me link that leads to this creepy livestream.
THE LIVESTREAM IS BACK AND IT SAVED AN IMAGE YESTERDAY. OH FUN.
There’s a brand new “see me here” link which takes you to “documentation.html” and this image, entitled “purify”:
There’s a screech playing in the background. Decoding it into an SSTV image results in this:
Which… isn’t much, but it’s something.
The “hear me here” link updated too:
The Vocaroo clip sounds like frogs or perhaps crickets (i’m gonna go with frogs because of the frog imagery at lovely5500′s blog) and later on, ragged breathing.
cherubim.html also got a pretty exciting update, now emitting a screech that translates into this:
More eyes, what looks like a crying face on the lower right, and text that says “MATTHEW”twice (the bottom one looks like handwriting…?)
Exciting stuff!
(I also suspect a connection with brunomarsreal, another “porn bot” that has been acting… er, out of line recently, but they could easily be a copycat or just someone having fun. Either way, I messaged them - we’ll see.)
IMMEDIATE update: The screech at documentation.html JUST changed, now revealing what looks like the top half of a face!
News on the “see me” page (documentation.html): Another Vocaroo link popped up in the source code, alongside the word “need”. The .mp3 is another SSTV source that translates into… whatever this is:
Has anybody got any ideas on what that could be?
Watching this post develop is honestly giving me life someone please solve this mystery
