Architecture of the Scythe Pt. 4/5
The Geometry of a Fugitive Rain in the District of Rust doesn't wash things clean; it just turns the soot into permanent, oily stain. The kind of rain that feels like it’s trying to dissolve pavement, a slow-motion acid bath for a city that has already lost its soul.

Architecture of the Scythe Pt. 3/5
The Architecture of a Lie The city has a remarkable, almost biological capacity for forgetting. My efforts and warning were all for not; sure enough: the digital scrolls of the *Daily Ledger*, you’ll see the narrative being woven in real-time, smoothed over like fresh concrete. "Maya Vane, 19, Perishes in Canyon Crash; Mechanical Failure Blamed." They’ve already run the op-eds about the "Vane Curse," the "Fragility of Fame," and the "Poetic Symmetry" of a daughter following her mother into the dark. To the three million souls living under the smog of this metropolis, Maya is just another beautiful ghost, a tragic face on a commemorative magazine cover.

Close encounter at the midnight hour.
Close Encounters of the Midnight Hour It’s a quarter to 4, just a few hours before dawn. The room is dark; silence engulfs it. I lie in bed and fall asleep. In just a few hours, I will wake up and go through my morning routine. I’m not a morning person—just a bit tired from those sleepless nights.

The Oakville Blobs: When the Sky Dropped Something It Shouldn’t Have!
Some mysteries whisper... Others fall from the sky. And in 1994, that's just what happened. In the summer of 1994, residents of the quiet logging town of Oakville, Washington, reported something that sounded like a prank, a hoax, or perhaps a misremembered weather event. But it wasn’t. Because on multiple occasions that year, a strange gelatinous substance rained down from the sky, clear, sticky, and unnervingly organic.

Fear on the High Seas: Comparing The Flying Dutchman and the Mary Celeste Tragedy
Commentary Hauntings on the High Seas Anything that haunts will usually frighten: and it doesn’t matter if it's a legend or an actual event in history. Still, which account will keep you up at night or make you wary of doing certain things such as going out on the open sea? No doubt, a real-life mystery such as the Mary Celeste can bring out the fear. But, in a twist of irony, it’s a legend that has had a lasting impact and may have affected the sailors' wellbeing.

The Telling Bone
Introduction This was kicked off by Catweazle's name for the telephone. Catweazle was a medieval sorcerer who ended up in modern times (the nineteen seventies). The full episode is all over Youtube and most of my readers might not even recognise what he is holding as a landline telephone handset.
