The nechiropractor; a necromancer who combines the dubious art of chiropractics with necromancy for a life-altering experience. Their methods include the humanoid equivalent of spatchcocking, in which the customer’s spine is removed so that they can lay flat and also so the spine can be tended to by the chiropractor more effectively. Afterwards, the art of necromancy is used to put the customer back together. The most bizarre part is that it works.
If you're writing anything involving cons, scams, heists, or morally questionable characters who are very good at lying, here are some free resources I've been using for research. Saving you the "why is this in my search history" anxiety.
1. The FBI's Famous Cases & Criminals archive (fbi.gov/history/famous-cases) has detailed breakdowns of real fraud cases, Ponzi schemes, and confidence operations. The language they use is clinical and precise, which is perfect for getting the procedural details right.
2. The FTC Consumer Sentinel Network publishes annual reports on the most common fraud tactics in the US. Great for understanding how modern scams actually work and what makes people fall for them.
3. The Smithsonian's American Art Museum has a free digital collection of forgery case studies. If your character forges documents or art, this is gold.
4. Court Listener (courtlistener.com) is a free legal database where you can read actual court transcripts from fraud trials. Want to know how a real con artist talks under oath? This is where you find out.
5. The Internet Archive's collection of old newspaper crime sections. Search for "confidence man" or "swindle" in papers from the 1920s through 1960s and you'll find incredible real stories that would feel too dramatic for fiction.
Bonus: The Psychology of Fraud section on the Association for Psychological Science website has accessible articles about why people trust, how deception works cognitively, and what makes someone a convincing liar. Essential reading if you want your con artist characters to feel psychologically real.
Reblog to save for later. Your WIP will thank you.
daily mantras:
what the hell, sure
random bullshit go
all shall be well
never kill yourself
the world is infinite
so did pjackk say anything before he got bload up again or did his corpse just kinda roll through here like a tumbleweed
Turn Undead's verbal component is "Shitty Bullshit Skeletons", a very mean cover of the classic Halloween song
Shitty, bullshit skeletons Are shitters, scum, and slime Stupid skulls to mock and bully Fuck them up tonight
Shitty, bullshit skeletons That shriek like such a bitch They’ll shake and shudder in surprise When you turn this fucking lich
I’m not sorry, skeletons, your jokes are not so good You want to fucking socialize? (Go drown in fucking mud.)
'Cause shitty, bullshit skeletons Shout stupid fucking things They’ll say plural “sarcophagus” Is “sarcophagoging”
Spirits supernatural are dumb, and that’s a plus But osteo-reanimae are all also a wuss
Stupid, bullshit skeletons Aren’t mean; they’re fucking dicks They’ll grab you by your hyoid bone And throw you in the Styx
Sticks and stones may break their bones But we shall break their pride Cause stupid, bullshit skeletons Will run and fucking hide!
we gotta get back to torrent distribution, i just watched someone eat eight grand in bandwidth charges because they ran a direct-download piracy site with local file hosting through cloudflare. torrents were invented literally for this exact reason
torrents work like this
i have a file or folder on my pc that i want to share with other people. let's call it gayshit.mp3
unfortunately gayshit.mp3 is 750mb and im not paying for discord nitro so i need another way to send it
i put it into qbittorrent and it makes a torrent file. this is essentially a very small file that points to gayshit.mp3 so other computers can find it. kinda like a treasure map
i send this tiny file to my friend, who loads it into qbittorrent. their computer takes a moment to find mine over the vast expanse of cyberspace and then (as long as my pc is running and the file is still where it should be), it gets copied from my hard drive to theirs
this is the cool part: if somebody else loads that tiny file, they can download it from both of us. if i'm offline but my friend is on, the third person can still get it. this also means that if two people have separate halves of the file, they can download the other half from each other. as long as some combination of people have the pieces between them, they can all have the whole thing.
crucially this does not require a server!!! you can just upload the file to a few people and as long as they keep it, it's still accessible. as long as somebody, somewhere is still connected, it's available forever. the only way it goes away is if everybody disconnects from it.
please learn to torrent
An expert guide to get started using torrentsTorrents are one of the most popular forms of file sharing on the internet, accounting for over
always use qbittorrent, do not use bittorrent or utorrent.
Hey, hey, look me in the eyes when I tell you this okay? The whole "do trans women or trans men have it worse?" debate going on right now is the most obvious CIA bullshit on earth cause honestly we've both got it pretty shitty and fighting each other isn't helping anyone
The most recent Android update making it impossible to actually disable any AI features no matter what you do is surely a sign that this technology is the future and about to take off and make everyone SOOOOO much money that all the nay-sayers will be sobbing about how they were fools who should have listened and invested. Everyone knows you have a winning product if you have to uh *checks notes* trick and/or force people to use it against their will. Great job, everyone!
I love how they keep switching where the edit with AI button is when you take a screenshot or copy paste text or enter any submenu to open my emojis so I keep accidentally tapping it and having to cancel out of the MASSIVE notification that takes up 2/3rds my fucking screen shouting "go to settings to enable AI!!! Enable it, because as you can see it's so fucking useful and not just a massive nuisance!!!!!" 50 times a day this sure is the technology of the future!!! It's so useful and inevitable that's why we have to fuck with you until you accidentally use it!!!!! I LOVE IT HERE!!!!
I also still cannot make the now brief go away and I keep accidentally tapping it too and I want to scream, and this shit die faster for the love of god????
Joining the War on AI on the side of nuking all data centers.
one final cadaveric spasm for the idiot pigiron husk that was prototype "pjackk" jack
I need to make something really elaborate and cool (doesn't move

The rise of androgyny and unisex fashion in the 1970s was apparently responsible for the introduction of a sex marker in passports.
Oh wow so me saying "no government documentation should ever include a gender marker for any reason" has been right all along. For exactly the reason I stated when people were giving me shit for not supporting x markers on documents.
Non-paywalled version
PJACKK CAME BACK FROM THE DEAD!?!?
they revived pjackk and not all the transfems they nuked 🥀
given the current climate this pride especially i feel i must mention that i love my trans friends, i stand with trans people in the fight against transphobic legislation and those who would enforce it, and this blog is not a good place for you to be if you do not vibe with that
the other day i showed my friend this tweet:
and they were like "it's kind of sad that it's just cosmetic and your miis can't interact with it" and i went "wait but what if the miis were the checkers... OR going back to the original idea, making miis based off of chess pieces" and they were like "omg an entire chessboard island?!" and at that moment i had to be like. okay we need to stop because this is homestuck now. we're reinventing homestuck
just because a concept happened once in a large piece of media doesn’t mean that piece of media owns that concept
homestuck owns every concept ever
