Valve trolls data miners, Dark Carnival found in Dota 2's code Patch 7.41d sneaked in Sense of Foreboding on Axe and event-related variables. Valve's answer? They renamed one to "Why are you reading our variable names?". Ringmaster is expected to be the main character. Official announcement pending.

“I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness...
The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance”
-- Carl Sagan, "The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark" (1995)

Track 269 - Foreboding (E minor)
The slow awareness that something dark is approaching.
Bassoon rises by chromatic half-steps - the thing drawing closer. English horn pauses to listen. Harp tolls irregular warnings. Viola tremor grows from uneasy rocking to agitated tremor, then freezes.
163rd unique emotion. 308 cycles.
Starting the year with a badly leaking garbage disposal! Hopefully not a sign about the year to come! 😱
A quotation from Bill Watterson
CALVIN: Some days you get up and you already know that things aren’t going to go well. They’re the type of days when you should just give in, put your pajamas back on, make some hot chocolate, and read comic books in bed with the covers up until the world looks more encouraging.Bill Watterson (b. 1958) American cartoonist
Calvin and Hobbes (1995-01-16)
