    Fun fact: The rapid clicking noise at the very start of the video is an imitation of a sound Apple II floppy drives would make when the computer was powered on. It was the read/write head repeatedly banging against the end-stop to ensure that it was at track zero. This saved the expense of an end-stop sensor, instead relying on the fact that stepper motors can be safely jammed for short periods of time.

You can only answer what does death mean only when you're dead at that moment. If you're not dead, you can only answer partially.
      This SCP doesn't want people to be dead for its own purpose. This SCP see death as an Ultimate question, and those who answer it are essentially achieving enlightenment...

To give a very rough summary; have you ever had those random, out of the blue thoughts like “what if I jumped off this cliff” or “what if I just punched this person’s face for no reason”? These weirdly destructive thoughts are “calls of the void”.

      Theres a few theories about this.
      When youre high up and you feel a voice telling you to jump. The Earth's gravity is pulling you down and your subconscious/conscious whatever brain is turning it into that.
      When you meet someone and you feel a voice telling you to punch them. The brain is hardwired for survival and their face has triggered a response. Maybe their left nostril is slightly off center or they have sanpaku eyes. Its something your subconscious brain has registered as necessary for survival.

    a bunch of things stand out about this. to start with, we have a sequel to the terrifying scp "What Happens After." What's more terrifying is that I believe this scp is the aftermath of that one causing an XK scenario. The use of "Damerung Clearance" as an exclusionary factor for chosing personelle for this project is the dead give away. Maybe they tried to use something like project lethe to get rid of it. I point out the way this cognitohazard invades the brain is similar. If thats the case, the two scps likely merged to create this one. I can't remember numbers here, but I do remember concepts. If I recall correctly Lethe is "attempts to assasinate thought" but I could be wrong. Regardless, this scp is incredibly chilling. If I'm right, it means the Foundation failed to protect humanity from cognitohazards TWICE before this. Notice that just like with Lethe, when SCP 2000 is activated to deal with this one alterations are to be made. That was one feature of lethe, they tried to muck with it with scp 2000 and it didn't work. The common features indicate this cognitohazard has been merging and evolving for quite awhile. The Foundation is going to have to get really really creative to counter this.

      There's also this motif around pattern screamers throughout the skip. There's a series on that to explore as well.
      The line that stood out was "there was no virus" and connect that to the way the plague doctor deals with the pestilence, it may be a bit of a stretch but given the cognito and infohazardous nature of this skip, doubt that it will be any good. It's a stretch, but there's a non zero possibility that these are connected and if that's the case, SCP-049 may also be affected to some degree and therefore thinks it's like a disease that must be cured in any way the plague doctor knows how.
      If it's the screamers, they need to return to the coordinates that don't exist and simply wipe themselves clean (that's apparently what they want but they're stuck in between dimensions so they're basically stuck but there are a few of them that remember their past and how they became that way and use bamboo/pandas to communicate. These ones aren't hostile, but if it's the same group of entities they might share insight. At any rate, is magnitudes better than project Lethe which ended up not only being a complete failure but created a much more dangerous entity.
      A similar approach to Project Lethe (with varying results) is to use the mind mapping techniques "Project Pneuma" referred in SCP-5000 Why, effectively create another antimeme similar to SCP-055 (thought to be an artifact of the fifth world and everyone forgets about it because it was wiped from the collective consciousness and therefore is unable to be remembered by anyone).

    Something I want to know is how was the actual nature of this SCP discovered? There’s no “retrieval log”, which I think would be extremely interesting. Another thing that spoke to me was how the Project Head mentioned the word “symbol”. That could be a metaphor of course, but if the Foundation were to study the memetic workings of this symbol, or rather the method of activation or infection, it could produce great insight on how to prevent infections altogether. I know few SCPs have good endings, but I’d love to see some spec of hope, Y’know? Regardless, a fantastic SCP, and kudos to the author.

      This SCP was probably inspired by Martin Heidegger's philosophy, evident by the "abgrund event" as a probable reference to his "abyss (abgrund) of Being". His work wrestles with the very dilemma the project lead talks about in the last part of the story, so maybe if the SCP affects you then Heidegger's work could be of some comfort to you.

      Yeah, but consider SCP-3004, an entity that is contained with the restriction of information and a fail safe procedure that involves attempting to whip out all knowledge of the abrahamic god, that’s insane. The only way to combat it is to forget it but then it manages to infect knowledge of other things, like cicadas and particular religious practices, and it’s like a daisy chain of abstract destruction that can’t be physically stopped.

      Reminds me of another similar one where it was revealed to the O-5 council that an infectious cognitohazard had begun to infect humans. The effect was that after your physical death you would experience every mote of agony from the decay and breakdown of your corpse. Along with a 'spreading' of your conscience mind as bits of you were separated off by various carrion feeding insects and stuff. Really horrifying stuff. Think it was classed as a "Dammerung Class Cognitohazard". I forget the skip number though.

      @WASDLeftClick Рік тому

      It’s the end of your existence, your experience, your very self. There’s no evidence that any sort of afterlife whatsoever exists that isn’t easily debunked. It’s pretty clear that when we die, our consciousness simply ceases to exist, permanently. This is so profoundly uncomfortable for humans that we invented religion just to convince ourselves that death isn’t the end. At least that’s my interpretation of the facts as I know them. Death is very philosophically relevant. It defines us, shackles us, it dictates the course of our lives no matter what.
      Death of old age and aging itself beyond growing to adulthood should be eliminated by almost any means by society imho. Biological immortality if that sort seems to be possible, but not quite within our technological reach yet. It would mean you could live a theoretically infinite life, with the relative health of someone in their mid 30s, and only die through accidents, violence, or disease.
      This sort of immortality must be given freely to all humans, not purchased, and with their full consent as an adult. Should you ever choose to accept death later, it’s not impossible.
      Unfortunately, should the technology ever actually be developed, I guarantee you it will cost millions and only the top 1% of billionaires will even be allowed to buy it.

    Let there be a mountain of horrid, loathsome dregs, whose senselessness draws into question humanities right to be for the few embers full of righteousness.

    Oh god...
    Many years ago I had a vivid paranoid hallucination in the middle of a panic attack, and the things I saw then have plagued my mind ever since. I saw in the fields surrounding me unending rows of people, all with bare white skin lit up in the moonlight, and every single one of them was staring right at me. Right into me. I’ve tried hard in the years since to write about these people in any meaningful way. Every interpretation leads to the same connection. They are the very same people I am surrounded by in daylight. They are always watching me. They are always there.
    They make me fear people. They make me look for justifications for my fear and aversion. They make me hate people for the things i feel.
    I’ve never been so directly spoken to by an SCP. And the ending. That is a new way to see these people in the fields. They are the dead. Wishing for me to join them. It must be a common feeling but every description of this “infection” made me think that if it were real surely it has me. But then to be spoken of in such a parallel way. Looking out into the darkness and seeing them all waiting for me. I feel, I don’t know. It’s good to know I’m not the only person who sees this. But it makes me dread that maybe this story really is onto something.

    This one lacks internal consistency. I like the idea of vengeful ghosts pulling people to hell, but death is an inevitability; why bother doing anything to speed or slow it? Why would that matter to the ghost one way or another? What do they have to gain from humanity dying now or in 1,000,000 years?
    It needed a call to action and a meaningful action that the infected could do. Ie, dying infected sends you to their hell but dying uninfected sends you to some other state so they actually have a reason to do this whole dragging people to hell thing. Horror writing still needs conflict and conflict still needs motivation. Even if the motivation is nonsensical, it has to make sense internally; ie, Dracula wants to drink blood and get wives he does not just randomly murder people at random times.

In the process it gained more and more knowledge of humanity and became more and more successful and powerful. Not that the text itself suggests or supports it, just a thought.

    I like to imagine this is a possible bridge between the stories of SCP 5000 and 3426, i.e. a story where humanity discovered something horribly wrong with our collective unconsciousness (I believe an entity that’s manipulating us) and they purge it from themselves and suddenly start killing anomalies and humans on mass,, against a phenomenon where worlds where anomalies exist and eventually the whole world vanishes, consumed by some force most often described as screaming voices, but which appears to be somehow memetic.
    This might be interpreted as anomalies making possible the creation of a hostile memetic entity unique to the civilization, and which the Foundation in the future discovered and tried to eradicate, but they may have done this by removing the mental connections these entities used to control humanity, but which also previously made us behave ethically/human, and then they went about destroying the infected humans who couldn’t be cured (as this report says it will become incurable) as well as many SCPs, which may also qualify as infected due to their vulnerabilities and the meme’s extreme late-stage infectivity. The Foundation would appear to outsiders as having gone completely insane, but it may be a last ditch effort to prevent the civilization’s total erasure, as that would have been preferable despite the incumbent horror..
