Interesting chat. Something I've noticed recently is the flipping in a large part of the public mind of the traditional roles where the internet is seen as reality and offline meat-space is just a place you film your content in. Certainly parallels with my understanding of Gnosticism. Thanks Rick!

I did a podcast with the delightful Rick Palmer from @sphericalpod.bsky.social where we talked about all kinds of things from the esoteric internet to the backrooms. Check it out!

Fortuitous timing for me with this conversation as I've been listening to a lot of Jungian dream analysis leading me to wonder whether, as you raised in the episode, we should think about an experience like a Bigfoot encounter as if it had a hidden message to deliver like a dream might. Thanks Rick!

UFOs are about going out with your friends and experiencing weird shit and a lot of you fucking losers seem to think it’s about listening to the government.

Got 22 minutes to spare? Want to be f**king confused and afraid in equal measure? Then why not give John Smith's 1987 short film The Black Tower a watch? You can thank me or punch me afterwards, your choice. youtu.be/hw6exAfUWMI?... Is it #horror? Or is it just a #weird tale? Who knows!

Thanks to @wunderkammertales.bsky.social for the last round! @prairiebones.bsky.social would like all of the stories and art you have of Mothers, both bad and beloved! 🌷🌸💐

That's it for today's #WyrdWednesday! Thank you for all of your lovely posts about mothers! To all of the moms out there, a very Happy Early Mother's Day to you! 🌸 We will announce our next topic on Monday. Until then, have a great week!

My research into Nanny Morgan has been one of the most fulfilling things I've ever done. Ann Morgan's story highlights the importance of honouring historical legacies in folkloric narratives. She deserves to be remembered. nearlyknowledgeable.co.uk/reclaiming-n... #witchcraft #history #folklore

Since there wasn't enough time to tell Radio Four about all the ghosts in the ethereal Savernake Forest, I created a blog instead! Heads up, this is a MEGA blog. There are an awful lot of weird stories connected to this eerie place and it's ancient trees. 👻🌳👻 weird-wiltshire.co.uk/2026/02/27/t...

Lugh Lamhfada was the last great hope of the Tuatha de Dannan: prophecized to kill his grandfather, Balor of the Evil Eye, and free his people from the bondage of the monstrous Formorians, and make the Emerald Isle green at last. #WyrdWednesday 🖼️: J. Fitzpatrick

Sigurd rescued Brunhilde under the guise of his friend Gunther, whom she married thinking he was her hero. When she discovered the truth, she made it her goal to destroy Sigurd and all happiness he had, as much out of anger as unrequited love. #LegendaryWednesday 🖼️: G. Bussiere
