Now is Not the Time to Politicize the Tragedies That Have Happened Inside This Haunted House


In wake of recent events, my thoughts and prayers are with the victims who went missing after our group split up inside the abandoned house to find any valuable heirlooms that had been left behind after the late homeowner died under mysterious circumstances. This tragedy is unspeakable, because many of our mouths have been sealed shut by some otherworldly substance, and I send my warmest condolences to whichever dimension our friends’ souls are tethered to.

Right now is a time for consoling the survivors, and mourning the loss of our beloved companion, who told us that she didn't believe in ghosts, right before a phantom emerged from a dusty hallway mirror and pulled her into it. We will never forget the terrified look in her eyes as she pounded her fists on the glass that she was trapped behind. My thoughts and prayers are also with the couple who we heard screaming in what we believe was the very bedroom where the dead body of a priest was found, his lifeless hands clutching an amulet of unknown origin, according to local legend. I'm sure it can't be easy knowing that one of the most attractive members of our group has gone missing in the old library, but I hope that you will take solace in the fact that even in the most crushing darkness, light will always find a way to shine through (specifically in the form the two glowing, sinister specks that have seemed to follow us - like the eyes of a hungry creature - ever since the front door slammed shut behind us).

There is a time and place for a political debate, but now is the time to unite as explorers of this seemingly empty mansion. Out of respect for our friends, it would be inappropriate to discuss our method of escape, or what we should do to to appease any supernatural forces that lurk behind these walls.

We are currently looking around the old library for any messages etched in the furniture, glowing orbs that may contain our friends’ trapped souls, or trapdoors concealed beneath oriental rugs. A motive behind the tormented spirit at work in the haunted manor is yet to be discovered, so it would be premature for us to discuss any group rules when we don't know whether we’re being terrorized  by the reanimated skeleton of a long-dead matriarch, the vengeful ghost of one of the former servants, or a deranged, lone ghoul who is compelled to consume the flesh of the first living being it came in contact with.

May the spirit of adventure be with you as we accidentally pull a lever when we remove a book from the large shelf in the far corner of the room, revealing a secret passageway that leads to a spiral staircase made entirely out of stone. Thank you, and God bless America.

Raytheon releases rainbow-colored bomb to celebrate pride month

Sana’a, Yemen – Showing its support for the LGBTQ+ community, Massachusetts-based weapons manufacturer Raytheon unveiled its own rainbow-colored bombs to commemorate Pride Month. Wesley Kremer, President of Raytheon, says that world leaders can help raise awareness for important causes like LGBTQ+ equality by purchasing these bombs to use on other countries, warships, or even their own citizens. “We think it is important for our business to show their support for such a diverse community with a rich and resilient history,” said Kremer. “That’s why we’ve manufactured bombs that are not only painted the colors of the rainbow on the outside, but also explode in flashes of orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple smoke upon detonation.” Kremer explained that the bombs do not emit red smoke because the blood from men, women, and children will serve as the crimson hue of the rainbow. Emir Hamid, a Yemeni man who identifies as gay, said that he felt supported by the LGBTQ+ representa...

CULTURE MUSINGS: How is the new Aladdin different from the original?

This Memorial Day weekend, Disney released Aladdin, the live-action version of one of its most popular movies based on the life of U.S. President Warren G. Harding's youngest son. While the adaption mostly stays true to the original, some eagle-eyed fans might have noticed these changes in Guy Ritchie's remake. The events of the live action film do not end up causing the Hindenburg disaster. It is heavily implied in the 1992  Aladdin  film that the main character inadvertently creates a chain reaction through history that end up resulting in the 1937 explosion of the Hindenburg, starting with a chase scene at the beginning of the film. As Aladdin runs from palace guards, he bumps into a man who looks very similar to Ludwig Durr, the designer of the Hindenburg. John Musker and Ron Clements, the directors of the animated film, confirmed in several interviews that the man is indeed the airship designer's ancestor, and that Aladdin's collision with him has dire conse...

Three tips on getting your beach body that don't involve going to war with Iran

Summer is almost here, which means Americans will be heading to the beach, pool, and possibly the Middle East to start another genocidal war that will only further destabilize the region. Here are some tips that make sure you look good while also ensuring you don't kill hundreds of thousands of people. 1.) Stick to your diplomatic relationship and your workout routine. Having a set plan can go a loooong way in ensuring you get to the gym every week. Once you establish something that works, though, don't give up just because you get busy or you want to tarnish your predecessor's legacy. Abs don't show up in one week. Don't stop your workout just because your tummy doesn't get flat right away, or because of unfounded claims that the 2015 peace deal deal isn't working. As Dory from Finding Nemo famously says: 2.) Maintain a high-protein breakfast and avoid appointing John Bolton as your National Security Advisor. Any breakfast that inc...
