SIMS Curator of Manuscripts Nick Herman has been quoted in Gizmodo, wooo!
good night
ok so y'all know how I keep saying my house is haunted me and my parents sat down and tried to remember everything fucked that has happened here is a quick list:
- the cactus incident
-last night I was trying to go into my room and the door blew shut in my face, literally seconds later an envelope is slid down the back of my dads shirt, the envelope was in a different room
- my dad found a video on his phone of him sleeping, we don’t know who took it
- when we were on holiday once on holiday without my mum, my dad had a dream that his phone was ringing and a voice said to him ‘you better answer that she needs you’ he wakes up and seconds later my mum rings crying, there were no missed calls so the ringing didn’t wake him up
- dad keeps seeing weird lights in the living room at night
- when we first got Catniss she was sitting cuddled up next to me and then all of a sudden she is digging her claws into me and jumping up hissing at something, she is staring at the other side of my room for about a minute with all her fur sticking up like she’s scared, there is nothing there
- my mum keeps waking up with weird scratches and bite marks on her
- we took out a fireplace in my mums room, when the wall was opened up something that smelled like sulphur filled my mums room for weeks, we couldn’t go in there it was so bad
- doors open and close by themselves, this includes the front wire door which was doing it at the same time every morning for like three months
- when we were renovating the kitchen we pulled up the lino and under it was some very old news paper clippings and what appear to be blood stains
- I found some numbers written on my window ledge, no one knows who wrote them but we know they weren’t always there
- one of my mirrors keeps moving in its frame
- my mum says she once saw a doll stand up and jump off her wardrobe, me and my dad don’t believe her but she insists it happened
- all the dogs we have ever owned have dug in the same spot in the backyard, right where the concrete meets the dirt, our current dog dug really deep and revealed a bit of fabric sticking out from under the concrete, she waited for my dad to get home from work to show it to him but when he got back it was gone
- one time a lady came and asked to see our house, she said she was the daughter of the previous owner, we asked my grandma about it bc she technically own the house and was good friends with the dude who used to own it, he didn’t have a daughter
- one time the police knocked on our door and asked us if we knew anything about the previous owner, because they were investigating an old case about a dude who used to live across the street from us who went missing
- before I was born my mums wardrobe used to bang a single time around about the same time every night, this stopped right after I was born
- my mum says she used to see an old lady, my dad says he’s seen her too
- mum says her blanket keeps getting pulled off of her in her sleep
- all of us have felt an animal jump on our bed and curl up next to us when none of our pets are actually there
- one time I went outside and I saw a little dog run under the fence that separates the front of our yard from the back (bc we have chickens) I assumed this was my little dog Bella but when I went back inside she was locked in the kitchen, I am now convinced that this is my little dog Molly who died when i was 13
- one time we found two fucked up looking dolls on our front porch, we assume my grandpa put them there but don’t really know, the night they showed up we heard a scratching at the front door
- my mums says that sometimes her bed shakes, both of her sisters who used to live here have also told me this
- sometimes I can hear an animal rustling around under my bed even though there isn’t one there
- balls keep bouncing down the hall out of nowhere
- 1 time I was telling my mum about a murder case and our computer turned itself on and scared the shit out of us
- one time my mum was playing around on one of those weird mobile things that ur meant to be able 2 talk to ghosts on and it said ‘Texas home’ as she heard me open the front door after getting home from school and we used to have a dog called Texas who would sit by the front door and wait for me to come home every day
Will add 2 this is I remember anything else
I am very unhappy to report to u all the following
- found a pair of scissors just sticking out of my floor no one knows where they came from or how they got there
-just found a god damn KNIFE on my tv stand which is at the foot of my bed and I think I am literally going to DIE
now i know what ur all thinking ‘wtf courtney that sounds fake’ which…. i wish it was… but in an attempt 2 have a full report of the weird shit happening in my house here are some photos for ur viewing pleasure
the fucked up dolls hanging out where we found them (in finding this photo i found a video of me talking about it and apparently catniss was also meowing at them)
the weird number hmu if this means anything 2 u
the fucking CACTUS literally just kill me
not mentioned previously but here is a photo i took of a UFO hanging out above my house i’m v proud of it
update: my mum found this buried in the backyard
also we got ourselves another ufo
Ghost update my dad woke up to find he’d texted this to a dude he works with
And me being the bitch I am put it in a code breaker and
Thanks I hate it
Further ghost update my mum has apparently been digging up bones like these in our yard for years, she says they always look like they’ve been cut with something and there has been hundreds of them
hey courtney. what the fuck
omggg it’s just FUCK’D here’s a link to the cactus story which is to this day the most fucked up thing to ever happen to me

Got something else babes the other night I’m sitting in the lounge with my dad and he’s like ‘did I tell you…. actually no don’t worry about it it’s really freaky’ and of course I INSISTED he tell me because you can’t just start a sentence like that and back out anyway apparently he woke up the other morning earlier than usual and what woke him up was someone whistling like a tune and he was 100% positive it was a person and not a bird and he made sure to specify this like ten times so it would have been about 4.30am and what’s like…. super weird is that I was awake and hanging out in my room and while I didn’t hear any whistling I also didn’t hear any birds so….. what the FUCK…..
I’m back with more fucked up content so basically my mum is obessed with Christmas lights and the way ours is set up is it runs through the roof and when they’re on but the lights out in our bathroom a small amount of light comes through the kitchen light why idk it’s just like that so last night him going to sleep and I turn off the bathroom light and I notice there’s light coming from the ceiling so I go and tell my dad and he asked me to go out into the laundry (which is outside) to turn them off and I’m like okay sure so I go and do that so there are two switches that can be turned off one is to the Christmas lights and ones the dryer and the Christmas light one has a fluorescent orange cord coming out of it so it’s very hard to get them confused so I turn it off and turn the laundry light off and close the door and the door to our laundry is trash and sticks and like there’s a huge section of paneling at the bottom that’s straight up fallen off so if I’d left the laundry light on I would have noticed as a tried to force it closed which is a v difficult process so I do that and go back inside and there’s still like light on in the ceiling and I’m like ??? And tell my dad and he’s like u must have turned off the wrong one and I’m like I literally didn’t because when I went out there I was specifically like to myself ‘u need to turn off the orange one’ but I’m like okay guess I fucked it up so I go out there again and???? Not only have i apparently flipped the wrong switch (which I DIDNT) but the laundry light is still on which is literally not possible because I specifically remember struggling to get that door closed in the dark and it wouldn’t have been dark if that light was on what is this
Oh lol apparently I never added the time I blacked out to this???? Earlier this year I was taking a nap minding my own got damn business and I check the time and it is exactly 12.59am and I hang out for what could not have been longer than ten minutes with my cat who is demanding attention and I hear a noise that sounds like a bell which weird because there are no bells in my room and even if there was why would it be ringing so I grab my phone 2 turn the flash light on and see if i can find out what the fuck that was and it’s now telling me it’s. exactly 1.59am which is literally impossible and I KNOW I didn’t fall asleep like I swear to god like I am not the kind of person who is capable of doing that it takes me at least half an hour to fall asleep and I was literally so freaked out I had a panic attack and I woke my dad up crying it was the most fucked up thing that has ever happened to me in my LIFE
Okay more fucked up shit is happening in this house so the family cat died earlier this week and tonight we’re sitting down having dinner and I hear a noise that sounds like the table being knocked and I don’t think much of it but my parents both automatically freak out and they’re both positive they heard the cat like my dad heard her hissing and my mum heard her meowing and I think they’re INSANE because I heard the table being knocked and it didn’t sound like the cat at all but THEN my mum looks at her drink and it’s gone a weird cloudy white colour as pictured below
It’s sparking water, she poured mine and hers at the exact same time out of the same bottle and mine does not look like that. The glass was not only clean but before it was cleaned I was drinking water out of it like it’s had nothing in it that could cause this. The cats here and according to my mum meowing like she’s hungry and out 4 revenge
why in the world are we still asking this question in 2019?
Trump: says and does racist things.
People: call Trump racist.
Journalists and politicians:
Ok but like
There’s no benefit in her going on live television and saying Trump is a racist without elaborating on the subject
What he’s asking is a leading question and sure, taking his ‘how can you say that’ out of context works well to make him seem like he supports Trump but that’s not how it was said in the interview. How it was said was to get her to continue to talk about why Trump is a racist
Don’t believe me? Skip ahead in this video to 0:15 seconds and listen to the entire thing in context.
She then goes on to ELABORATE on how he uses dogwhistles and his reaction to Charlottesville (by calling Nazi’s fine people) so people who tune in to the interview can draw connections to what she’s saying as opposed to just reacting, like op did, to the exact words that are said.
I think too many people on here fail to realize that news, real news, isn’t done by just saying shit. You have to be able to back it up and in order to do so, you need to be able to spell something out for people who don’t get it. And someone who already has been criticized by people for her views (including by people on here, bizarrely, because they keep things she’s said out of context) need to be able to get all the information out there.
“Getting to the truth” journalism isn’t just pelting known liars with hard questions and fact checking, it’s also giving a platform for the people who need to be heard, giving them openings to say their piece, and, when needed, urging them to elaborate.
we all know by now anderson cooper isn’t a piece of shit anyway so
in case you guys wanna know what modern high school dances are like, at mine despacito came on and everyone t-posed around this one kid as he fortnite danced like his life depended on it
to be fair, at a school dance when i was in school, a kid i knew had completely memorized the choreography to the gangnam style music video and the rest of us yell-sang what does the fox say noises at her while she did it.. so like, not much different. same soil different pot
if cotton eye’d joe came on everyone would make the neatest fuckign lines and do the dance in sync. it was like a cult. but hell yeah it was fun as shit
Freeze!
Everybody clap your hands!!!
If I could somehow find everyone who ever bullied me and ask them why they targeted me, not a single one would say it was because I was autistic. None of them even knew I was.
Instead they’d say it was because I liked Pokemon too much after it stopped being cool, or my clothes looked ridiculous and I wore the same pair of jeans 3 days a week, or that I was just weird/nerdy/unpopular. In many, many cases, that is what neurodiversity looks like. Not someone with an obvious disability, but someone who’s just weird.
I see so many allistics and neurotypicals on here that claim to be anti-ableism but turn around and make jokes at the expense of people who are eccentric but harmless.
If you’re an allistic that claims to support autistic people, but then you turn around and make fun of the woman who wears a bizarre outfit or the guy who speaks in a monotone or the teenager who carries a teddy bear everywhere, you’re a bad ally and I don’t trust you.
An Instagram ad telling me not to tape my laptop camera is the most suspicious shit ever
