* Adrenochrome Enters the QAnon Extended Universe (this actually happens /during/ the thread we'll discuss in "GUYS WE NEED TO DIG", and features an INCREDIBLE spiral of LARPing)
THREADS THAT ARE LURKING ON THE HORIZON:
* Mega Anon, the biggest LARP on 4chan when Q made his debut. (This requires a ton of research but is a RICH vein of information. I've only skimmed her posts so far but it's striking how soon Q becomes the dominant theme after drop 1.)
Mega muses out loud about Q's style compared to her own, at one point saying: "I've realized what kills me in here, is my wall boards of detailed paragraphs but alas, I'm not a writer. QAnon is breaking down a ton of detail in a more /pol/-friendly format."
* Q'S HAZY CONCEPTION OF "MILITARY INTELLIGENCE"
The phrase "Military Intelligence" does a LOT of heavy lifting in the Q mythos. What is "military intelligence" in real life? (Answer: a lot of different organizations & people.)
What is "military intelligence" in the Q mythos?

There’s a story on NBC News you should ABSOLUTELY read if you have 5 minutes.
I’ll link it at the end.
A Texas cop who’s part of the far right (tried to start his own Oathkeepers chapter, even!) spent 2 years trying to land felony pornography charges on school librarians. 🧵
What he told people in /public/ — including his bosses, it seems — was: gosh, I’m just a devoted civil servant. If community members make a complaint, it’s my DUTY to investigate.
But actually he went to meetings held by anti-“porn” crusaders and told *them* to make a complaint.
One of those women, by the way, is now on the school board.
What did he object to? Basically, a bunch of YA books — books for teenagers that dared to have sex in them! Teens famously never think about sex! — and *a book by Nobel Prize laureate Toni Morrison.*
TIL the guy who coined the phrase “go woke, go broke” wrote a whole entire book with the premise:
wouldn’t it be cool if Waffen-SS veterans were rejuvenated and placed in charge of the effort to stop soft, effete modern-day Germany from being overrun by aliens???

“Origins,” you say, “perhaps that is a grossly unfair summary.”
OK, well, I fucking read that shit when it came out. I was a nerdy young conservative in 2005 and had *absolutely* been reading the entire series to that point.
It’s a 100% fair summary.
“Origins,” you say, “how do we know you really read— wait why are you drawing in a really deep breath?”
THE ALIENS ARE CALLED THE POSLEEN AND THEY EAT OTHER SENTIENT BEINGS, WHICH THEY CALL “THRESH” WHICH IS A PRETTY GREAT WORD IN THAT CONTEXT TBH, REALLY ROLLS OFF THE TONGUE
READ THIS BECAUSE: I *guarantee* you’re going to find at LEAST one thing that sticks in your mind for life. There are hardly any other books I’d say that of.
SUBJECT: the last months of the Third Reich.
FAIR WARNING: this book features a *lot* of people trapped in awful situations waiting for terrible fates to befall them. Also, the stuff that will stick with you isn’t necessarily fun or uplifting.
For instance, there’s a passage about how civilians perceived concentration camp inmates when they saw the death marches.
One of them writes in her journal something to the effect of: what terrible crimes they must have committed, to be treated like this.
“Think mirror” is a QAnon slogan often used in baking — that is, the search for hidden meaning in an image or text.
Ariel didn’t use the slogan in this post, but here he makes a direct & simple use of the *core concept* to suggest that the X app is somehow linked to Freemasonry:
There /are/ less direct, less simple uses of “think mirror” — lots of them.
It’s a key part of how the “Q Clock” works, for instance (image credit: Travis View, AFAIK).
It can also be used to explain away problems that arise when one of the movement’s heroes says or does something that /completely contradicts/ core QAnon beliefs.
No problem! That was a performance for the normies.
