The reflection of my face on the monitor.

I also vote for this guy's visage.

A black and white comic about a stranded astronaut walking back to base, and his suit's nano bots are doing everything necessary to keep him alive while it keeps walking him, day and night, toward their goal. Even disassembling his limbs and torso to turn them into water, nutrients, and fuel to keep everything else running.

It's been living rent free in my head for a couple years now.

That reminds me slightly of the game SOMA

[–] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Any idea where to find that?

[–] davefischer 4 points 1 year ago

There's a sci-fi novel from the 50s where a dude is severely injured, so his robot freezes him until they can get back to proper medical facilities. But the robot is also heavily damaged, so it steals a bunch of "parts" (mostly limbs) from the frozen body to make itself functional enough to make the trip... (Stefan Wul - Rayons pour Sidar)

I used to work in IT forensics - there’s nothing that will ever be worse than the things I saw there. People are freaking scary.

But outside work I’ve seen my part of shit, puke and other strange fetish videos, and people being blown up or driven down - being on the internet in the early days sort of made you numb to those things.

I will say that I saw a paper cut fetish video once. That shit hurt through the monitor.

Saw a video once of a woman in stiletto heels stepping on a kitten. If there was one thing I could erase from my brain it would be that.

I've seen a lot of gross stuff, but diturbing? The guy eating another man on a train. Dudes just flailing while he has chunk bitten out of him, everyone on the tube is just filling on their phones.

Saw some pretty gruesome stuff during my snuff film phase. Once my daughter was born, I couldn't do it anymore.

There are surveillance camera feeds online and I discovered one was for a camera near where I live.

[–] zzzz@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Why is that disturbing?

[–] vortexal@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It might be subjective but for me the most disturbing thing was the alarming amount of spider porn/hentai. Like, are there actually people out there who fantasize about being mounted by a spider the size of a car? As someone who has arachnophobia, I really don't understand it.

[–] Scrappy@feddit.nl 5 points 1 year ago

That sounds terrifying

[–] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)
[–] Maruki_Hurakami@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

100% this. Probably the only thing I regret watching.

Yeah. Way worse that the cup thing or the Japanese eel stuff or the others. That crap still haunts me

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Based on established naming conventions, I'm assuming the 3 fellas poop on the hammer?

[–] matty@blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

@ivanafterall@kbin.social nope, they beat the shit out of a guy with a hammer

[–] ivanafterall@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

That's not nearly as fun.

That's a funny way to say "murder"...

I'm older than some in here, I think (judging by the answers). For me, a couple of the things on steakandcheese.com and rotten.com (back in its early days, not the later milder days), cartel videos, beheadings, hangings etc. The standout though was a video called 'Terrorists, Killers & Middle East Wackos'... Grim stuff. From Wikipedia:

Terrorists, Killers and Middle-East Wackos (also Terrorists, Killers and Other Wackos in the UK) is a shockumentary video from the makers of Bumfights. It includes footage of riots, suicides, executions, and the televised suicide of R. Budd Dwyer. All the scenes included are real scenes of death and suffering. The Bumfights website store touts the video as "One hour of the sickest images ever put to film."

I was young and dumb once, but I actively avoid things like that nowadays. There's knowing how things happen in the real world, and there's traumatising and desensitising yourself to the worst depravities possible for... reasons? Just no. You can't unsee some things, and some things shouldn't ever enter your consciousness at all (unless you're really unlucky IRL...).

I downloaded a copy of Come and See via the internet, so I guess that counts?

[–] Kben@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

The goddess bunny,or the guy spliting his penis on efuct.

[–] Bonehead@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Probably the kitten video. I stopped watching when I noticed the chopping board...
