This just got me thinking how cool it would be to have a game where you come across one of these in disrepair and have to reverse engineer your way to making it work. You’d have a massive complex and lots of nooks and crannies to hide puzzles in. Make it look old and abandoned with overgrowth and I’m even more sold.

Have u played Abiotic Factor? Cause that's kinda the vibe
This kills me because the concept looks great, but I’m never really into survival. Hate kill screens in immersive games.
I'm now a firm believer in this theory.
It was the weasel that went into the collider. We've always been in the same timeline. It's the weasel that's now confused and very angry.
alternatively the weasel is now in a good timeline
Unfortunately I have more belief in humans fucking shit up than I do in accidental weasel hadron colliding.
Also, this says it was in 2016. We were already super fucked by then. I'd be more inclined to believe that we live in a giant simulation that got fucked by the millennium bug.
Not that things were great in 2000, but the point is that 2016 is way too late. It's like looking at water that's just starting to boil, and then being surprised when it becomes a rolling boil.
Turning it on was the mistake. It was activated in 2015.
Yeah but in 2000, I still felt like shit roughly made sense. We entered clown world long about the time the LHC fired its first high energy collisions.
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) was first "fired high energy" when it achieved its first high-energy particle collisions on March 30, 2010. On that date, proton beams collided at a combined energy of 7 TeV, setting a new world record and officially beginning the LHC's research program.
I remember hearing that that was going to happen and, you know, being mildly concerned. Then it came and went and I forgot about it. But I distinctly remember 2012. A series of truly bizarre things happened in my personal life. I sold a condo I owned at the time and moved away to try and put some distance between myself and what was happening. It was pants-on-head stupid, like I just couldn't believe what was going on, but it was personal, not earth-shattering, just truly, deeply bizarre.
Shortly thereafter, Trump happened, then covid - and the whole world began being truly, deeply bizarre. Now things have progressed so far that where I used to think I knew a bit about how the world works and where it's going, I am now utterly adrift. I don't even try to make sense of it anymore, just to accept it and roll as best I can.
I'm not saying correlation is causation but when I first heard the LHC theory it made me stop and think.
Bud, i just gotta point out that all that shit is US centric af.
I think when harambe was murdered is when most people noticed that we're fucked
In this universe yes but in the weasels timeline weasel based time manipulation is quite common.
I read, “weasel hardon collision”.
I would rent that movie for at least once.
Actually, this is the better timeline. We were shifted into the really bad timeline after the cascade failure occurred right after the first test.
The weasel actually saved billions of lives.
Forseen Consequences
The right weasel at the right time can make all the difference in the world
That weasel’s name?
Harambe.
The way to return to the correct timeline is simple: Take the dicks out.
How long should I keep it for? It’s cold over here!
If we all do it at the same tim
…it’ll shift Earth’s orbit outward, counteracting global warming!
For what it's worth — and keeping fully in mind this is a meme and therefore not serious — Starfield (crappy Xbox/PC game from the people who made Skyrim) did this. A particle accelerator experiment (albeit involving an alien artefact) caused reality to split apart. So I'm gonna say, it's possible!
Better reason then what Terminator 3 did in that hallway.
Also, in the parallel universe in which David Bowie and Prince didn’t die, they play at Hillary Clinton’s inauguration
you couldn't have dreamed a little harder and said "Bernie Sanders"?She's the US equivalent of Keir Starmer
Who,?
Based off the name I'm going to assume it's an STD.
Fuck Hillary and the DNC.
"Wrong"? Define "wrong".
Its all kinds of weaselly, innit?
So the weasel is why we live in the Biff timeline
Though, for each of those possible timlines to have ever existed, they would have to be played out with humans that have a consciousness. Maybe, we're that consciousness.
Weasel: There was no other other.
Weasel fried itself on a transformer outside the facility, it didn't jump inside the collider ffs
Maybe it jumped in to the collider, changed the timeline, got out, then got fried making its escape?
Also, I'm no conspiracy theorist, but you are definitely part of the Time Bending Illuminati trying to control my thoughts!! Well, tough, I'm wearing my foil hat, HA.
I know it's a joke, but I mean... there were signs way before 2016 that things were heading in a weird direction.
Something similar happened in 2009: https://time.com/archive/6933968/did-a-time-traveling-bird-sabotage-the-collider/
That's pretty funny. Even funnier if there are people out there who actually believe in this magical thinking nonsense.
Are there people who earnestly believe it? I just see it as a little bit of fun escapism.
But you're probably right. I say the same shit about astrology, so I should be consistent. Normalizing magical thinking is really bad, even if it seems benign.
Was this before or after Harambe's death?
A few months before. Theory checks out.
I distinctly remember when they had to shut the LHC down after a bird dropped a baguette on it:

This is the Inverse Steinsgate worldline where everything bad happens. Covid and climate change are worldline convergence.
