It really is funny how much of the "#Skeptical" community turned out to be *phobe, and really only ever at the party because the Americans tended to let Libertarians in, and there was the glimmer of a chance to run the "community member to community-exploitation content producer" game path.

The podcasters who tried to become TV or radio people, the bloggers who were always angling for a book deal...

It was always about the money, and who gets opportunity for money.

Seeing a lot of these ads on Facebook these days. First of all, yeah I look like Week 1 these days. But more importantly I think it's almost impossible you'd see these kinds of results in just 4 weeks without surgery. #skeptical

That looks like a lot more than 22 lbs to me.

My friend was living in DC on 9/11 and definitely caught the war fever that swept the nation 🇺🇸 ; I was more circumspect, felt it was a matter for the FBI. I was #skeptical and #antiwar from the very start, opposing even the Afghanistan operation that many of my friends who are fellow Democrats now SUPPORTED back then.

@RnDanger I too am #skeptical of AI overreach, but when a #community applies clear rules—transparent attribution + human liability + review processes—it seems like a pragmatically sensible policy. If we keep the #human review and trust model intact, #AI can be another productivity tool, not a compromise of the #opensource values we care about.

The Haunted story un-Smurled

As if you needed more evidence that Ed and Lorraine Warren were horrid people that left a slime trail of lies and destruction from the 1970s to the present day, Kenny Biddle from CSI has dug up considerable history on the Smurl “haunting” in 1985 West Pittston, Pennsylvania. This event was supposedly the basis for The latest Conjuring movie franchise The Conjuring: Last Rites. But Kenny reports the movie has nothing to do with Smurl family’s claims.

By examining newspaper articles, TV interviews, and in-person interviews from the time, plus historical records, Kenny unravels this case that the Warrens considered “demonic”. Instead, it’s crystal clear how the Warrens exaggerated and at least partially fictionalized this case. As with so many of their other infamous cases, the Warren’s template for “investigation” including grabbing media attention and guiding the Smurls into a book deal and eventually a TV movie (from which the Warrens also reaped benefits). Kenny shreds the 1988 book about the case, The Haunted by Robert Curran.

This was a fun and informative step-by-step examination of the way the Warrens took control of the narrative by crafting (or should we say “conjuring”) several mundane events experienced by the family into an exaggerated and preposterous demon infestation. The total video is about 90 minutes. Check it out.
