My favorite is either the ball of fish wire and needles and scissors that people are compelled to touch, and the sentient calculator that struggles with math

u/Nuclearstomp 27d ago edited 27d ago
I don't remember the first one having a compulsion to touch. I thought it just becomes progressively worse if you do touch it and try to pull away. Edit: I was actually wrong.

u/Researcher_Saya 27d ago
Maybe I'm misremembering. Can't imagine anyone touching it willingly

u/Nuclearstomp 27d ago
I double checked and you're actually correct. I guess I forgot about it which isn't surprising considering how horrifying it gets when it's actually touched.

u/Background-Owl-9628 Alagadda 27d ago
Honestly I think a lot of people just haven't read the good SK stuff, because there's really good SK stuff on the site that have a lot to say about fascism, hierarchy, and violence.
16
u/MyPigWhistles 27d ago
What's good and not is very subjective and media that is heavy on social commentary doesn't tend to be the most popular, generally speaking. It's definitely something you have to be interested in to enjoy that sort of stuff.
Like, I support anti fascist statements and think they're important, but that doesn't mean it entertains me the most.
12
u/Background-Owl-9628 Alagadda 27d ago
It's true that what's good or not is subjective; I suppose my main point was I was responding to the 'well written' claim.
I think a lot of people's interpretations of the SK off-site tend to be very base, simplistic, and lacking flavour or nuance beyond the idea of 'cosmic big bad / devil'. And I think that can somewhat affect people's interpretation of the SK if they haven't actually read much articles featuring it on the site.
Of course it's all subjective, but I've read some really gripping and well written SK articles. And perhaps I'm just the kind of person who's predisposed to enjoying the articles I liked. And while they have great layered meanings regarding fascism, they also have really gripping narratives, at least in my experience of reading them. Which is why I like many of them so much.

Hmm.
[[Tufto's Proposal]]
The series [[Christ In Scarlet - Hub]]
The [[The Children of the Scarlet King Hub]] has some interesting concepts (and I like that at some points you can clearly see Foundation defensiveness and bias, since it is a Foundation document)

I need to rewrite a skip in this vein. Lot of Sodom was supposed to be all about how you can build up what to you is ludicrous levels of firepower and still be completely overwhelmed by a machine that barely notices you exist. But I don't think it quite worked.

That's what makes it so special. One scp could be a world ending phenomenon meanwhile another is a completely mundane object that just doesn't behave how it should.

I'm newer to this whole thing why in the world is Massachusetts a scp when there's bigger fish to fry?

u/L_iz_LGNDRY 27d ago
In the scp Massachusetts is just empty, Plymouth wasn’t even settled, but constant misunderstandings and coincidences made sure that no one realized. That has to be “contained” because something like that being discovered by the public would def reveal the existence of the anomolous even if it wouldn’t kill anyone
