Exploring the SCP Foundation: SCP-1929 - Discoherence

That's exactly what we are; cosmic dust that has temporarily coalesced into a planet around a star. Some of that dust has further started to walk around and ask itself "why?"

[@Lunar994]

Seeing as this is a rewrite, I naturally had to check out the original with the wayback machine. The rewrite has quite a bit of similarities with the original (not surprising), but said original feels more surreal. Here are some differences: • It was a single storm that, much like Daleport, left the towns it altered permanently anomalous. • Humans caught in the storm either got transfigured to look like domestic animals or be completely composed of dust. Additionally, the limbs of missing residents presumably killed by the storm have been found fused to local wildlife and fauna. •No one can eat or drink, but still feel hungry and thirsty. Any food or drink brought into the affected areas become coated in dust and become dry to human touch. Lack of contact for 3 hours will cause locust to grow from the food, who will consume the food before attempting to consume the people and structures of the town til killed. There are some other things for anyone interested in seeing what the original was like.

[@cjthebeesknees]

It's not often that I listen to a story that makes my skin crawl, but hearing the descriptions of the dusted D-class is literally making my toes and fingers tingly. Maybe I'm turning into dust...

[@blackosprey2219]

I really like this one. Very weird, very eerie, a few hints of otherworldliness without going full multiverse/pataphysical bs, and grounded enough without being obvious commentary.

[@MichaelDeHaven]

I really enjoyed it too. Personally, I quite enjoy the pataphysics stuff. But it's nice to go on a really surreal ride like this too. I think they even did a good job at hinting at a larger narrative while not actually destroying the mystery of this story. Not sure I should've listened to it right before sleep though. Some of that imagery may cause some weird dreams.

Wendigoon once joked “where is your god now?” About the Mystery Flesh Pit National Park mythology. Honestly, this SCP feels more…that….then the Flesh Pit

[@EmissaryofWind]

Mystery Flesh Pit National Park is a story about the hubris of man and the hubris of capitalists first and foremost. A "fuck around, find out" situation. The people caught in 1929 have done no fucking around, they just find out out of nowhere.

[@WeAllWitnessed]

What???

[@darthbiz2095]

A friend and I were talking recently about the horror potential of the dust bowl, and wondered why it wasn't used more often. Glad to find out someone had an interesting idea for the setting, and came up with something even more horrifying than the ideas we thought up!

[@atonedudeatsnotsubscribed8313]

There is also an episode of the magnus archive that is based in the dust bowl

Is there an SCP Of Mice and Men? I like the idea of George being a reality bender that starts turning everything into rabbits and alfalfa

[@Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.]

I wonder if TES feels limited by how his SCP stuff typically gets the most views. I love his SCP stuff but I always feel bad imagining content creators might be adhering to what people want rather than doing the diverse topics they’re interested in personally

[@magnolia1253]

He's already given up on doing 40k articles because they never got as many views. It made me sad when he said that

[@Bruhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.]

@@magnolia1253 it’s a shame too because I’m super into both warhammer and SCP, so I’d personally really like it if he did a 50/50 of both for the most part.

[@UCannotDefeatMyShmeat]

Yeah, creators rarely get to end up making what they really love. Like the guy who made Conan, he thought Conan was dumb as shit and wrote it for money so he could keep writing westerns. But as we know, one beat the other.

So many of my favourite videos are by you. Ive commented before that your narration is absolutely top notch, and i still think it three years later. Its not just your voice and tone and pacing etc, its also that this is all your own take on things; the little asides in the middle of an intro or on the way out of a segment; that youre still clearly passionate about it all. All adds up to a great experience whether falling asleep or just the perfect audio entertainment whilst working. Keep up the great work, youre massively appreciated

[@HeroAntagonist]

I found this SCP particularly creepy, perhaps due to the deliberate lack of background. Its going to be one of those one's that linger and gives me nightmares

It's interesting to me that some of the most disturbing concepts in the SCP universe are based on death no longer deathing. Ask a random person what they think the end of death would be like and most of em would say positive things.

Pre-WW2 SCP Foundation really needed the magical, tech, magitek, and scientific improvements from the 21st century onwards SCP Foundation. Bet this anomaly involves bisected realities. In another parallel plane, the survivors are the ones affected instead, while the victims are the survivors. Interesting entity, that "imaginary friend". 29:30: What about sweat and tears? Those mentions of SCPs-1861 and -3300 give me chills. That radio host may be not partial to Babylon 5's series finale, it seems. Was expecting Grapes of Wrath philosophy in the midst of an anomalous dust mote blizzard. Did not expect to see Courage the Cowardly Dog and Stephen King's The Stand scares ramped up to eleven. To quote the Wind Ceremony for Greg Weisman's Gargoyles: "Ashes to ashes or dust to dust. All is one with the wind."

That bit about ppl remaining conscious despite being fully disintegrated reminded me of that “What happens after death” SCP. Maybe there’s another connection here, in which ppl’s conceptual integrity(?) (ie “what makes you aware that you’re you”) remains despite the rest of your physical self falling apart.
