A Convicted Murderer Just Sent Me A Link To A Secret Recording, And What’s In The Video Is Truly Horrifying
The lawyer they gave me asked if there was anyone I wanted to call and handed me his smartphone. I figured you were my best bet. They’re clever bastards but not clever enough to know that I record all of my streams onto a redundant server. I’ve attached a link to download a video from…
“But, Joel…” I can hear you saying, “You dirty Agnostic, how can you live every day of your life without pondering something as important as the existence of God?!”
To which I would simply shrug and reply, “Video games?”
But regardless of my own personal beliefs (or lack thereof), I can’t help but get a little weird when someone tries to conclude a scientific debate by saying “because Jesus.” It wouldn’t matter how absurd that theory was either and I’d have the same reaction if their answer had been, “Because Brahma, the Hindu god with four faces.” [A note to my Hindu peeps: Please don’t be offended. I promise that I have nothing but respect for your beliefs as well. How do you think I know the amount of faces Brahma has?]
See, I can read about crazy conspiracies all day but what makes them fun is that they generally have some grounding in reality, a train of logic that you can follow (though I may be playing it a little fast and loose with the word “logic” there.) But I have the same problem with Flat Earthers that I do with the Fantasy genre and Jackson Pollock paintings: Nothing here reflects the world that I know and no matter how insistent you are, it won’t ever feel real to me.
