Scratching my third eye and inching away from my phone as if it would make this day any less cruel than it was, and I wondered why it became a– Shipwreck – Stream of consciousness almost as if out of nowhere after a hellish enough writer's block that I thought i'd never write again, but maybe, just maybe, With the lack of motorcycles and having run something like three miles and working out for two hours, and crying and crying meant I was somehow closer to heaven, Even though it felt like hell. And it was one of those spells where I couldn't really stop writing even if I wanted to, but all I really wanted was love and there was almost no one. Maybe even no one at all. I was a stranger to my son, the poor boy and something about the way I'd been was almost aligning with his father's account; even though he had beaten me to a bloody pulp, perhaps now it was sort of true that I was out of my mind or something–even if his beating was the cause, it had almost become fact now, and I didn't want anything at all but a cat an a dog–but the last thing I needed was a fucking dog. Maybe he was saying it so much, speaking the lie over and over again like a mantra that reverberated into my life that it finally became true. Leapfrog Just keep your head down Keep your mouth shut Keep your nose brown —lol the other way. I don't want to live to see another day Through the eye Of the Television A walk would be significant right about now Cause if I had a gun I would blow my brains out Loose lips sink ships And love is a battlefield My mind is an ocean I expect you to drown, now I don't remember I don't remember I don't remember A thing about it I don't know I don't know I don't know Where you're going with this I know, I know It was all on false hope But I don't remember a thing about it I don't remember a thing about it I don't remember a thing about it Battle stations, mount your horses Radio towers, broadcast coooroate, corporal Projects and generals, Regional and National Global But oh, it's all warfare It is a bank holiday, but nobody's celebrating But the bankers It was a banquet Now it's just a low, cold and lonely forest Below ocean level It was a target, but now it's a birthday cake Hooray for the parade, Hurry for the payday, The payout Only makes sense if you make it It only makes sense if you make it!

A family moves into a freshly built house in Cape Town, and all seemed perfect until it wasn't. For one teenager, excitement over newfound independence quickly turns to terror as strange events unfold: a pet refuses to sleep in her room, voices shout warnings in the night, and something tries to enter her locked bedroom. Even after the family leaves, the nightmares persist, pulling her back to that house, where an unseen force seems to await her in every dream. Was this a haunting tied to the land, or was something much darker drawn to her vulnerability? Join us as we delve into the unnerving events that turned a brand-new home into a lifelong nightmare and ponder the question: can you ever really leave a haunting behind?

Moles can be flat, raised, discreet, or visible. They appear all over our skin and tend to increase in number over time. While these harmless little spots are generally not a cause for concern, they can sometimes be the source of skin cancer, so it's important to keep an eye on them. A mole is a small, dark spot on the skin formed by a cluster of melanocytes. These are the cells responsible for producing melanin, the pigment that gives your skin its colour and helps you tan when exposed to sunlight. While melanocytes are typically spread throughout the skin, in the case of moles, they group together, creating a visible mark. Why do moles itch? What if you scratch it until it bleeds? When should you consult a dermatologist? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

When I meet someone to record an interview they often ask me how long the podcast is going to be. My stock answer is that it entirely depends upon them. Some people talk more than others and some people pack an awful lot into a lot less time, while others take longer to fully express themselves. You also never quite know where the conversation is going to go and that is a huge variable. Today's podcast is lively, fun and gets straight to the point. That's because it entirely reflects our interviewee. Kevin Gill is the Chairman of IRLA, the Insurance and Reinsurance Legacy Association. IRLA is the UK trade body that represents insurance and reinsurance legacy management professionals and this interview will bring you right up to date with everything that is happening in this increasingly mature and sophisticated segment of the marketplace. As legacy becomes ever more embedded as an essential, trusted service provider and capital partner for the live market we discuss how that relationship is evolving and where it might end up in the long term. The legacy market also has its own cycles independent of the live market and so we look at the relative state of the two markets and how this affects dealmaking. We also take the temperature of how the legacy sector feels about some of the more problematic recent live underwriting years, as well as looking at emerging loss trends and prospects for the application of emerging technology such as Ai to the sector. The portrait that emerges is of a confident, professionalised and vibrant segment  that is ready to trade and is looking at interesting growth opportunities as some of the soft-market underwriting years begin to mature.   Kevin is a breath of fresh air and there are no subjects left off the table. My bet is that you'll finish this episode wanting more. NOTES: ADC = Adverse Development Cover LINKS: We thank our naming sponsor AdvantageGo: https://www.advantagego.com

Welcome back!  I've been meaning to make this #ASMR tapping and scratching video for awhile now and finally did it!  It's pretty crazy I've never really done ASMR scratching before.  Sorry I didn't get to properly end the video, I had to switch batteries at the end, and accidentally dropped my full battery behind my chair at nearly 6 am, and I felt I kind of hinted at it anyway, so yeah, haha.  Too many details anyway! I hope you enjoyed this ASMR scratching and tapping!  Many blessings and the sweetest of dreams!

When you book a weekend cabin in the woods, you're usually expecting bad Wi-Fi, questionable furniture, and maybe a raccoon or two—not this. In today's story, what begins as a snowy getaway in Big Bear quickly turns into a psychological nightmare. Our narrator is surrounded by a crew of men who seem to know more than they're letting on, and the further into the weekend they go, the stranger they act. Then come the noises. Scraping on the roof. Scratching at the walls. And finally—at her door.

The Intersection of Imagination, Science Fiction, Strategy and Creativity.we wandered into something I keep circling back to: the idea that strategy is a kind of science fiction. Not in the “space battles and robots” sense, but in the deeper way that science fiction gives us permission to imagine futures—plausible or not—and then build toward them. Jarrett and I talked about design not just as a tool for solving problems, but as a mode of inquiry, a way of asking better questions and shaping new cultural narratives.We both share this instinct that branding, design, and strategy aren't just reactive—they're speculative. They make bets on the kind of world a product or company wants to inhabit. They tell stories about futures that don't exist yet, and then use those stories as scaffolding for action. That's what excites me about this work: it's not just about “making things,” it's about materializing possibilities.There's also this important undercurrent about imagination as a form of intelligence. We don't talk enough about that. Creativity isn't some whimsical add-on—it's central to how organizations find direction, how they differentiate, how they respond to change. And good strategy? It needs to evoke, not just calculate.This episode was a reminder that strategy and design, at their best, operate in the realm of the imaginary. They're speculative tools. And maybe the real work is helping people see that imagination is infrastructure.Jarrett Fuller is a designer, writer, educator, editor, and podcaster. He is an assistant professor of graphic design at North Carolina State University and hosts the design podcast Scratching the Surface.https://jarrettfuller.com/http://scratchingthesurface.fm/

It's the wonders of Adrian Chiles one moment, grief granola the next.Sitting atop all these topics is a palpable sense of excitement surrounding the nation's longest running opening set of Made Up Games.

Buying a quaint old farmhouse might sound idyllic, but for one new mother, it turned into a spine-chilling ordeal she'll never forget. Night after night, she felt a suffocating darkness lurking at her bedside – tall, menacing, and darker than the surrounding room. Scratching noises echoed behind the headboard with nothing to explain them; whispered conversations carried on between unseen figures by her bed. Even her newborn child seemed disturbed by a malevolent presence creeping up the stairs. Was it tied to the house's past as a family farm, or did strange mementos stuffed in the walls hint at something more sinister? This is a daily EXTRA from The Grave Talks.

Support Grassroots JournalismAll links here: https://linktr.ee/shepardambellasJoin Shepard Ambellas for this morning's explosive episode as we dive into shocking claims about Donald Trump's alleged plans to ramp up control in America. Rumor has it, Trump is gearing up to institute the death penalty for anyone daring to speak out against the Jewish community—taking things to a whole new level. Scratching a Tesla? That's already branded as domestic terrorism. Next step: rounding up dissenters into camps to appease the Jewish faith. The saddest part? Shepard predicts Americans won't lift a finger to resist—they'll march off the cliff like lemmings, too apathetic or afraid to fight back.

For one child in the remote redwoods of California, that eerie beat became the soundtrack to a terrifying few years. Scratching in the night. Growling in the shadows. Shoves down the stairs. Bruises on waking, yet nails too short to scratch. While prayer and faith briefly silenced the chaos, the haunting memories remain: the unexplainable fever, the voices overhead, and the primal fear that something malevolent had claimed a corner of that hippie commune-turned-Christian retreat. Was it all a demonic attack, a lingering spirit, or an echo of past traumas? If you have a real ghost story or supernatural event to report, please write into our show or call 1-855-853-4802!

Evolutionary psychologist, Doug Lisle, PhD discusses listener questions with co-host, Nathan Gershfeld. 0:00 Teaser Clips & Intro 0:51 My wife hired an escort but says it wasn't technically cheating!  19:01 I'm going to grad school to find a rich husband, but I'm not that into it 40:38 Scratching the psychological itch to get revenge Question 1: Dear Dr. Lisle, I'm a 38 year old male and I work very long hours in finance. My wife, who is 27, and I have been going through a sort of dead bedroom situation for the past few months because I have been working 16-18 hours a day and sleeping about 4 hours per night. She is a housewife so she stays at home all day. Recently I just found out that my wife has been paying for and meeting with a male escort twice a week for the past three months while I was working. She confirmed that they did sleep together every time they met. She says that this is not technically cheating because she paid for his consent, so basically he didn't want to have sex with her, he just did it for money so this shouldn't count as cheating. She said there are no romantic feelings between them, but she hired the same guy for the past three months so obviously she's attracted to him. Then she tried to blame it on me for working too much and not being there for her. Maybe I'm overreacting, but I feel heartbroken and betrayed. Is she right in saying that hiring an escort doesn't count as cheating? Who is in the wrong here, me for working too much and neglecting her, or her for paying for sex and companionship outside the marriage? I don't know if I should stay with her or not, I love her but I'm furious with her for taking advantage of my good nature and spending thousands of dollars of my hard earned money so she can sleep with someone else. Question 2: Is it wrong to go to grad school with the primary goal of finding a smart, conscientious, potentially rich husband? I'm a second year dental school student, but I'm honestly here mostly to put myself in an environment surrounded by intelligent hardworking men, so I can have something in common with them and make them see me as wife material. I'm also hoping the repeat exposure would help. I am scraping by in school, passing but not too passionate about it as my main goal in life is to be a housewife to a rich husband. I'm just hoping to use the doctorate degree as an accessory to attract these men. Am I wrong in the way I'm thinking? P.S. Otherwise, where would I meet such men, on dating apps? I don't think so. Question 3: Does Dr. Lisle have any strategies for scratching the psychological itch to get revenge when someone has wronged you? Over two years ago, a long term “friend” betrayed me in an undeniable way and never acknowledged it or seemed remorseful.  We are no longer friends and don't even talk, but have many mutual friends so he is somewhat in my life. I feel that he owes me a debt and sometimes ruminate about it. I have a near constant underlying feeling that I want him to experience the shock and betrayal that I did, and that I would be willing to facilitate it if I could.  I try to put my energy into developing other, more authentic relationships and into healthy living. Is living well actually the best revenge? I am not feeling that yet and would like to serve it cold instead.

IT'S WIDELY KNOWN that the first newspaper west of the Mississippi River was the short-lived Oregon Spectator, which published its first issue on Feb. 5, 1846. But that's only true if you define “newspaper” very narrowly. In truth, there was an earlier publication that met every definition of a newspaper but one ... specifically, it was “printed” by hand, every copy, with pen and ink — longhand. No printing press was involved. This early newspaper was called the Flumgudgeon Gazette and Bumble Bee Budget, and it first appeared in the spring of 1844 just in time for the first legislative council of the Oregon Provisional Government. Its editor identified himself only as “The Curl-Tail Coon,” and it's not entirely clear if that was just for fun, or for protection from revenge by those whose feathers he ruffled in its pages. It was a tri-weekly, with a press run of roughly 12 copies (written out longhand, remember, and with original art depicting its author hand-drawn individually on the front page of each by a friend of the editor, a German artist named Springer). Now, “Flumgudgeon Gazette and Bumble Bee Budget” is a very long name, so to save time we are going to refer to it by a shortened version, in the spirit of Windy City residents who call their daily “The Trib” instead of “The Chicago Tribune” or Stumptowners calling theirs “The Big O” instead of — well, “The Oregonian,” of course ...  In the present case, we're going with “The Gudge.” The Gudge was a mercilessly satirical publication. Its motto, printed prominently on the front page of every copy beneath the flag, read “A Newspaper of the Salamagundi Order and Devoted to Scratching and Stinging the Follies of the Age.” Above that appeared a drawing, by Herr Springer, of the Curltail Coon himself, with the caption “Don't stroke us backwards! There is enough of villainy going on to raise our bristles without that!” If the editor was pseudonymous, so were the legislators he lampooned — which makes it a bit hard to dope out who was who in the little bit of surviving text we have from the Aug. 20, 1845, issue. Historian Lawrence Powell suggests that “The Big Brass Gun” may have been Jesse Applegate's nickname, but confesses himself baffled as to who “The Blueback Terrapin” was. (Oregon City, Clackamas County; 1840s) (For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/2412a1007a.flumgudgeon-gazette-first-newspaper-handwritten.678.078.html)

A little bit of scratching can do some good, but too much can hurtScratching an itch can feel great, so scientists decided to dig into why that is the case since we know too much scratching isn't good for us. Dr. Dan Kaplan, a professor of dermatology and immunology at the University of Pittsburgh, said they found that scratching drives inflammation to the skin, which, in light moderation, helps to fight bacterial skin infections. But he warns that continual or excessive scratching can prolong an itch and potentially damage the skin. Their study is in the journal Science. Bear hazing goes high-tech with dronesA wildlife manager in the US has found that drones can be a safe and effective way to discourage problem bears from troubling human habitation and livestock. Wesley Sarmento started working in the prairies of Montana to prevent bear-human conflicts, but found the usual tricks of the trade were not as effective as he wanted them to be. Previously he tried to use noisemakers, dogs, trucks, and firearms, but buzzing bears with flying robots turned out to work much better. Now a PhD student at the University of Montana, he published an article about his hazing research in Frontiers in Conservation Science.Ants can remember and hold grudges against those who trouble themWhen ants fight with those from another nearby colony, it makes an impression. A new study has found the insects can remember the chemical signature of the aggressors, and will respond more vigorously and violently the next time they cross paths. Dr. Volker Nehring, a researcher at the University of Freiburg, Germany, describes the phenomenon as “the nasty neighbour" where ants are most aggressive to ant colonies closest to them, and says this is due to resource protection. Dr Nehring and his team's research was published in the journal Current Biology.Scientists on the front line of permafrost thaw describe changes in the Arctic The acceleration of change in the Arctic due to global warming is transforming the landscape on a year-to-year basis, often in surprising ways. That's according to scientists who've been studying the effects of climate change in the North. One study found that lakes in Western Greenland shifted from pristine blue to dirty brown from one year to the next due to increased permafrost melting and runoff. Jasmine Saros, a lake ecologist from the University of Maine, said they were astonished by the magnitude of change they saw in all 10 lakes they studied and how quickly it happened. That study was published in the journal PNAS. We also speak with William Quinton, a permafrost hydrologist from Wilfred Laurier University and the director of the Scotty Creek Research Station in southern Northwest Territories, an area he describes as “the frontline of permafrost thaw.” Quinton was part of a research team, led by Anna Virkkala from the Woodwell Climate Research Centre, that found that 34 per cent of the Arctic Boreal Zone — a region where carbon was safely locked up in the permafrost for thousands of years — has now become a carbon source. That study is in the journal Nature Climate Change.
