#Euclid Records

[bandcampsnoop]

10/17/24.

I'd never heard of The Aerovons (St. Louis, Missouri) until seeing a Grapefruit Records compilation reviewed by Tim Sendra. I looked on Grapefruit to find the release but couldn't find it, so I started to do some Bandcamp searching. I found this compilation on CD, but on Discogs I noticed there was an original test pressing of "Resurrection" on The Beatles own label, Parlophone in 1969. It was never issued until 2003. In 2016, Euclid Records reissued it for Record Store Day.

Yes, this sounds like The Beatles, but it also has traces of The Beach Boys, Jeff Lynne/ELO, Badfinger, and The Dukes of Stratosphear. And there were times I thought I was listening to a new release from The Lemon Twigs. This just doesn't sound like something that would have come out of St. Louis, Missouri in 1969.

As much as i adore vessel's current get up and tbh, wouldn't like him to change anything, if we do actually get something deer themed, especially deer skull themed, i will become ungovernable

[magefeathers]

despite the mixed feelings about RCA as a company, right now I'm really glad that sleep token just recently signed with a new label, because it means new music Is Definitely Happening, At Some Point. Because right now, looking at the first show, everything about the way this tour is laid out looks like a victory lap/farewell tour

[kirdoodl]

tell us more about your relativity falls au please!! 🙏

This is the first actual ask I've gotten, wowza! Welp, I gotta provide don't I?

My interpretation of the Relativity Falls au basically follows the same main plot of Gravity Falls but with a couple changes, like, for example;

Dipper doesn't write the journals but instead records tapes, and there's 3 boxes of em, each tape a recording of a different phenomenon or his personal experiences yada yada. And Ford still makes his own journal upon his arrival to gravity falls (I'd imagine that in tourist trapped instead of the gift shop scene, Mabel aka Grauntie May would let Lee and Ford each make something for themselfs, Ford would decorate a notebook and make his journal that he fills out across the summer, and May would help Lee stitch together his little scarf bandana thing [I don't know what it's called in English..] which he swears he'll wear all summer, he does follow up on that statement).

Also Bill is replaced by Scalene and Euclid! In my headcanon they're his lesbian moms so I'm keeping that. Dipper summons them and instead of Ford and Bill's whole... Relationship, I'd imagine Dipper wants more of the sorta, parental attention? If you're catching my drift? Eh it's my headcanon whatever

Oh and also mystery trio is a thing :D they meet fidds during The Legend Of The Gobblewonker and hang out ever since (they also have matching friendship bracelets because I love matching friendship bracelets and they're cool shut up). I will probably post something about the 3 of em when I get ideas :']

I have a few episode focused ideas but I might post a bundle of doodles about those later, when they're actually drawn 💔

[the-artist-grimm]

stopping by to say a few things. one, i love your crimson angel au. it's a fun and different take on how things work with canon and how things can be changed accordingly. two, love your art style. i can't explain it, but i just really like the way everyone's drawn. three. AWWWW short lamb! no worries anthea, i'm short myself, so you have good company! four. has anyone challenged anthea, nona or narinder to a cook off? five. fave type of music for everyone? like ballads, etc/ have a good day!

First off, thank you so much!!!!!!! I'm glad you're enjoying my stuff :D And hehehe-the idea of someone super short taking on and winning against 5 massive gods is just very funny for me, I like tiny but mighty protagonists

Now hm a cook off-I think no one would dare trying to face off against Nona-cooking is her domain. Probably only Heket eventually would try, and even then lose to the old lady's might.

Music (Just doing the cats and the lamb for simplicity's sake XD. Also adding links so people can you know...check out all the reallyyyyy good songs hehehe):

The Lamb, Anthea: Indie-Folk (Anything Crane Wives (Never Love an Anchor, Allies or Enemies) Alternate/Indie Pop (Live Cinema, Espresso, Cabo, Snow) Vocaloid-y? Like the kind of depressing/sad-ish tracks you come across in vocaloid type songs (Kokoronashi, Rest in Peace, Soundless Voice) Narinder: Progressive Metal and Rock. I personally think he'd love Sleep Token with how heavy their lyrics are, Euclid, Atlantic, and Alkaline would likely be some of his favs. The band Starset too with Perfect Machine, Alchemy, and Die for You. Aym and Baal: Nightcore and especially Vocaloid. They're 11 year olds that's like starting middle school age, there's a reason they were Rin and Len for Halloween XD . When I was in middle school I'd just discovered Youtube and was recording those songs onto my 3Ds via the camera to listen on car- trips since I didn't have an MP3 LOL. For specifics: -Aym: Leans to more edgy/loud tracks but sometimes the sillier ones too. Tokyo Teddy Bear, Matryoshka, Death Should Not Have Taken Thee, Ghost Rule -Baal: Leans to more happy and energetic tracks. Popipo, The Snow White Princess , Tell Your World, Drop Pop Candy

...I definitely didn't just give them all my music tastes what are you talking about (trips and falls over playlists)

Anyhoo...have a good day to you as well! (and my apologies for the delay KEKW)

[toweringclam]

After reading some responses to the latest Doctor Who, "73 Yards," I realized that a folkloric faerie story might be alien to modern audiences. However, there's a good modern equivalent, and I thought I'd try my hand at putting the story in a more familiar form.

"73 Yards"

Item #: SCP-17347

Clearance Level: 2/Restricted

Object Class: Euclid

Disruption Class: 2/Elam

Risk Class: 3/Warning

Special Containment Procedures: All Foundation personnel are to maintain at least a 32-foot (10 meters) distance from SCP-17347-1 unless necessary to protect civilians, in which case personnel are to use antimemetic ear and eye covering to reduce exposure to her effects. Otherwise, Foundation personnel in the field are forbidden from approaching, interacting with, or acknowledging the existence of the entity in any way. Should this prove unavoidable, personnel are to disable all communication devices to prevent the effect spreading. Any Foundation personnel inadvertently exposed to SCP-17347-1's effects are to be administered class A amnestics and transferred to a different site. Should this fail to relieve symptoms, they are to be offered early retirement with full benefits and disability pay.

Grade C surveillance is to be maintained on SCP-17347-2 with a primary goal of preventing civilian exposure to SCP-17347-1's effects. While SCP-17347-2 will generally avoid being separated from SCP-17347-1, should this occur Foundation assets are to intervene and ensure the 73 yard (67.75 meter) distance is maintained.

Description: SCP-17347-2 is a 21-year-old female Caucasian approximately 5'2" (157 cm) tall, with green eyes and natural brown hair that she prefers to dye blonde. A major identifying feature is a scar on her right eyebrow of unknown origin. Her demeanor is generally cooperative despite signs of psychological trauma related to abandonment. Attempts to gain SCP-17347-2's cooperation should use the subject's given name, "Ruby S█████," while focusing on reassurance that she is not alone and that the Foundation has her best interests at heart.

SCP-17347-1 is an entity of unknown origin, appearing as an elderly female Caucasian with white hair and wearing a long black overcoat. Due to its anomalous properties, it is impossible to form a more precise image of the entity. Methods of indirect observation such as cameras always show the subject with the same resolution as a human eye with 20/20 vision observing the subject from a distance of 73 yards (67.75 meters). Even anomalous means of observation are subject to this effect.

SCP-17347-1 maintains a constant distance of 73 yards (67.75 meters) from -2. Despite having a demonstrable physical presence, she does not appear to move when observed, instead relocating between blinks or lapses in attention. This effect is observable even on recorded video. Objects offer no hindrance, and the entity is able to keep pace with the fastest available Foundation land vehicles.

Attempting to transport SCP-17347-2 via air, sea, or other methods where SCP-17347-1 would theoretically not be able to follow have thus far failed due to anomalous weather activity. The temperature will plummet rapidly and produce out-of-season snowfall, escalating to blizzard conditions, and in one case flash-freezing a portion of the English Channel. The effects abate immediately should efforts to transport SCP-17347-2 cease.

Any attempt to interact with SCP-17347-1, including but not limited to attempts to harm, hinder, communicate with, or describe the entity will trigger her memetic effects, and can spread to secondary subjects nearby or through live audio/visual communication. Anyone subject to these effects will develop an intense antipathy towards SCP-17347-2. In civilians, this most often manifests as fear, but it can take other forms, such as anger, disgust, hurt, and disdain. The particular manifestation appears to matter less than the effect: an immediate and overwhelming desire to completely distance oneself from SCP-17347-2 in the most expedient and thorough way possible, including refusing to enter an establishment she frequents, changing their name and moving to a different country, resigning public positions, and, in one case, self-termination. Amnestics have no effect on this, though they may be administered to affected individuals to reduce psychological trauma associated with past and theoretical future interactions with SCP-17347-2

Testing has concluded that this effect includes indirect and negative means of interaction, with no known limit on range. D-Class subjects proved unwilling to push a button if informed that it would expose SCP-17347-2 to an intense, loud noise, even under threat of termination.

Those affected by SCP-17347-1 will only be able to refer to her in the most vague terms, describing her as "Shaped like she is," or "Looking like she is supposed to." They are unable or unwilling to explain the source of their antipathy, even under extreme duress, with the most common response being, "Ask her," refusing to clarify whether they mean -1 or -2.

At all times, SCP-17347-1 performs a looping series of gestures that appear to be an attempt to communicate in a form of sign language. However, the gestures are either not found in ASL or BSL (American or British Sign Language), or performed so poorly as to be unrecognizable.

Discovery: SCP-17347 came to the Foundation's attention following a failed operation to apprehend SCP-17347-1 by UK paranatural security organization UNIT (Unified Intelligence Taskforce). UNIT director Dr. K███ L█████████-S██████ (Dr. K for brevity) was exposed to the effects during an operation and ordered all information on SCP-17347-2 purged from UNIT databases and her files burned, on grounds of "Wasting precious resources on someone who doesn't f██████ matter)." Embedded agents and spy software were alerted to the purge and managed to save some documents. Official UNIT liaisons attempted to recover the remainder of the documents, but Dr. K vehemently refused and threatened to cut ties between our organization if pressed on the issue, yet she readily accepted amnestics when offered, to "Get her out of my goddamn head forever."

Addendum 1: From recovered documents, SCP-17347-2 appears to be a former associate of PoI-3 ("The Doctor") though what relevance that may have is unknown. -2 has shown reluctance to speak on this subject explaining, "That's when it started. The second time someone abandoned me forever. Not the last, though. Not the last."

PoI-3 has not been sighted since the anomaly began.

Addendum 2: Additional anomalous properties only came t o light during the documentation process. All measurements related to her must be conveyed in Imperial units first, though metric can be provided in parentheses. Also, both entities must be referred to with feminine singular pronouns, even when referring to both of her. Further research into this effect with languages lacking singular feminine pronouns is pending.

(I thought about adding interviews and testing logs, but I think you get the idea, and this had better get me like 500 notes from how much effort I put into it even without that)

Okay so. I have so many people to respond to and I promise I will, just not tonight. I wanted to give a quick update about the ritual below the cut (because I know some people like going in not knowing the setlist.) Again, typing this all on my phone so my apologies for heavy typos and any incoherence.

As a preface I just got back to my hotel, showered quickly, absolutely fucking sobbed in the shower for like two minutes, and I’m now eating uncle ben’s ready rice straight out of the bag because I don't have a fork or spoon. If that doesn’t scream hot mess idk what would.

First things first: the security/staff at Arizona Financial Theatre are all amazing. Literal fucking angels. Two of them hung out with us in line all day, letting us go inside to use the bathroom and refill water bottles and the guys at the barricade were so friendly and chatty and also handed out water. Literally everyone was so helpful and friendly and nice and they deserve all the good things in life.

Second: Empire State Bastard really wasn’t clicking with me until I saw them live. They’re an absolute vibe live plus the drummer and bassist are both babes. The band were constantly thanking us for showing up early and listening to them (tbh the venue was only half full until about 10 minutes before Sleep Token went on). Literally seemed like such humble and chill dudes.

Third!!! I almost don’t even know what to say about Sleep Token. There’s sooo much I could literally rant for hours but I also need to sleep so I can drive to Albuquerque in the morning. I recorded 5ish songs I think? Mostly the TPWBYT songs but I did get the summoning too. No idea if the footage is any good but we’ll see tomorrow. I made it a point not to have my phone out after finding out the setlist because there was no way in hell I was missing TNDNBTG live while on barricade. Maybe I should preface this next bit with I one hundred thousand present realize this sounds delusional of me, but everyone on the barricade had their phones out and Vessel fucking focused on me because of it. He was singing one of my favorite sleep token songs directly to me! There’s literally nowhere else he could have been looking! he was on the edge of the stage looking straight down at me and we were pointing at each other and I’m fucking dying reliving it because I was singing so horribly and cringy back at him. Like I’m so sorry vessel but my life was changing in that moment. I became a new woman the second you pointed at me.

I kept my phone away for the first several songs tbh and he kept coming back to stand in front of me but never made such heavy eye/mask contact (until Euclid). I actually almost feel like I disappointed him when I did pull my phone out to start recording because he practically avoided me after that. its actually why I decided not to record Euclid, though I knew it was coming and it was the song’s debut. AND IT FUCKING WORKED!! He came back around and was singing to me again, same stance, same obvious eye contact except this time I was literally Ugly Crying™️ at him. Tears were streaming, I had one hand holding onto the barricade for dear life, and the other clamped tightly around my mouth ugly crying. Even my buddies and the security were concerned that’s how bad it was.

In all honesty I can’t pretend that it wasn’t “scripted” like the band hadn’t planned every move on stage beforehand. They first and foremost are performers and Vessel literally sings to every girl on the barricade right in front of him. But it also felt so special and I feel so bad for breaking down like I did 😅🤣😭😫🫠

Okay I need to stop ranting, I’ve been up for 20 hours and this is most likely incoherent anyway. I love all of you and I hope everyone who’s able to get barricade this tour gets to experience the same thing I did🖤🖤🖤

SCP-8077 : The Doll - Original File

CoD - TF141 - SCP!AU

SUMMARY : The first file written about The Doll, now labeled SCP-8077, after its retrieval by MTF Alpha-141.

WARNINGS : None.

Author's Note : Never thought I'd be brave enough to post this. But I hyper focused on SCP stuff for a while and was quite satisfied with this, and I thought it would be silly to let it rot in my files. So here you go.

I do not allow anyone to re-publish, re-use and/or translate my work, be it here or on any other platform, including AI.

Item # : SCP-8077

Object Class : Euclid

Special Containment Procedures : SCP-8077 is to be kept within a three (3) by three point five (3.5) by two point five (2.5) meter square containment chamber, isolated from other SCPs to keep the specimen’s thirst for knowledge under control. The room is to be furnished with a desk, various writing utensils and a limited amount of books, which can be replaced upon request. 

The walls of SCP-8077’s containment chamber are to be lined with soundproof drywall along with a three (3) millimeters thick isolation membrane. Access is to be ensured via a heavy and rigid steel containment door measuring one point three (1.3) by two (2) meters, built in order to close and lock itself automatically when not deliberately held open.

Despite these measures ensuring that SCP-8077’s containment chamber is soundproof, all personnel is required to be highly mindful of every word they might say when standing in its vicinity. It is advised to cease all conversation altogether when walking past this room to avoid any major slip-up that could lead to a containment breach.

Under no circumstances may any personnel be allowed to have any kind of conversation with SCP-8077 unless an experiment and/or interrogation is underway. No personnel outside of the Antimemetics Divison is permitted to conduct such procedures.

Description : SCP-8077 is an antimemetic entity taking the appearance of a one hundred and sixty (160) centimeters tall, female ball-jointed doll, seemingly made of white porcelain, with long, wavy black hair and pale green eyes. Highly intelligent, the entity constantly seeks to consume all kinds of information and knowledge, feeding off of it by writing it down on any surface available.

SCP-8077 has been discovered to erase pieces of information from its assigned Researchers’ memory after writing them down, an effect that had not been noticed in the various books it read and took data from. The subject’s abilities seem to be activated when the information or knowledge it consumes comes from someone standing within its hearing range.

Note : It does not matter whether the piece of information or knowledge is addressed directly to the entity or not. 

Addendum : SCP-8077’s ability does not activate when taking notes from a recording.

An individual whose part of their knowledge was consumed by SCP-8077 will progressively remember it with time, or immediately if hearing, seeing or reading it, as if they never forgot about it in the first place.

When prevented from processing knowledge for an extended amount of time, a situation which first took place during the retrieval following the discovery of SCP-8077, the subject will first express confusion as to why, then gradually fall into a state akin to that of a panic attack. According to Agent Kyle « Gaz » Garrick of MTF Alpha-141, who was the first to notice SCP-8077’s abnormal behaviour, this panic manifests itself through a tendency to hide, fidget and faint sounds of whimpering that will grow into full crying. At the time, the specimen also questioned the members of the recovering team, not understanding why it was suddenly forbidden from writing anything.

The recovering team, once given the authorisation do to so after deeming the entity to be more and more unstable by the minute, managed to quickly de-escalate the situation by simply giving SCP-8077 a pen and paper, bringing it back to a peaceful state.

Perseus Galaxy Cluster from Euclid Image Credit & License: ESA, Euclid, Euclid Consortium, NASA; Processing: Jean-Charles Cuillandre (CEA Paris-Saclay) & Giovanni Anselmi; Text: Jean-Charles Cuillandre

Explanation: There's a new space telescope in the sky: Euclid. Equipped with two large panoramic cameras, Euclid captures light from the visible to the near-infrared. It took five hours of observing for Euclid's 1.2-meter diameter primary mirror to capture, through its sharp optics, the 1000+ galaxies in the Perseus cluster, which lies 250 million light years away. More than 100,000 galaxies are visible in the background, some as far away as 10 billion light years. The revolutionary nature of Euclid lies in the combination of its wide field of view (twice the area of the full moon), its high angular resolution (thanks to its 620 Megapixel camera), and its infrared vision, which captures both images and spectra. Euclid's initial surveys, covering a third of the sky and recording over 2 billion galaxies, will enable a study of how dark matter and dark energy have shaped our universe.

Here is a theory. Top athletes are compelling because they embody the comparison-based achievement we Americans revere—fastest, strongest—and because they do so in a totally unambiguous way. Questions of the best plumber or best managerial accountant are impossible even to define, whereas the best relief pitcher, free-throw shooter, or female tennis player is, at any given time, a matter of public statistical record. Top athletes fascinate us by appealing to our twin compulsions with competitive superiority and hard data. Plus they're beautiful: Jordan hanging in midair like a Chagall bride, Sampras laying down a touch volley at an angle that defies Euclid. And they're inspiring. There is about world-class athletes carving out exemptions from physical laws a transcendent beauty that makes manifest God in man. So actually more than one theory, then. Great athletes are profundity in motion. They enable abstractions like power and grace and control to become not only incarnate but televisable. To be a top athlete, performing, is to be that exquisite hybrid of animal and angel that we average unbeautiful watchers have such a hard time seeing in ourselves. So we want to know them, these gifted, driven physical achievers. We too, as audience, are driven: watching the performance is not enough. We want to get intimate with all that profundity. We want inside them; we want the Story. We want to hear about humble roots, privation, precocity, grim resolve, discouragement, persistence, team spirit, sacrifice, killer instinct, liniment and pain. We want to know how they did it. (...) And of course, too, we want to know how it feels, inside, to be both beautiful and best ("How did it feel to win the big one?"). What combination of blankness and concentration is required to sink a putt or a free-throw for thousands of dollars in front of millions of unblinking eyes? What goes through their minds? Are these athletes real people? Are they even remotely like us? Is their Agony of Defeat anything like our little agonies of daily frustration? And of course what about the Thrill of Victory—what might it feel like to hold up that #1 finger and be able to actually mean it?

SPACEMAS DAY 2 ✨🪐🌎☄️☀️🌕

There's a new space telescope in the sky: Euclid. Equipped with two large panoramic cameras, Euclid captures light from the visible all the way to the near-infrared. It took five hours of observing for Euclid's 1.2-meter diameter primary mirror to capture, the 1000+ galaxies in the Perseus cluster which lies 250 million light years away. More than 100,000 galaxies are visible in the background, some as far away as 10 billion light years. Euclid's initial surveys, covering a third of the sky and recording over 2 billion galaxies, will enable a study of how dark matter and dark energy have shaped our universe.

update on the scissor-cat-paper foundation or whatever their called

they took me in! the room door was locked a bit too tight so I had to slither through the cracks but It’s cool. I found this weird piece of paper on a table somewhere, I think it’s about me! ill read it to u

SCP-9121: Independent Serpent

Containment Class-Euclid

Special Containment Procedures

None as of writing. Standard issue chamber with safe-locked doors, steel walls, and four cameras placed in the upper corners of the room.

Addendum: Standard-issue containment is maintained. Subject should be surveilled at all times through video feed. If and when it leaves its chamber, the nearest agent on facility grounds should be dispatched to surveil it as it goes about the facility. Under no circumstance should lethal force be dispatched on it, even when attempting to deny entry to specific areas or containment units.

Description

SCP-9121 is a non-specific breed of American garter snake, approximately 12 inches long from snout to tail tip, and a quarter-inch thick, with its head being about a half-inch in width. It is solid white in color, with accents of grey. It is noted to be capable of more facial expression than a non-anomalous snake of its species, often wearing what most call an unknowing smile. The subject never sheds it’s scales.

SCP-9121 is noted to be capable of telepathic speech when maintaining line of sight. Its speech pattern is informal and is described to use text-based acronyms and images, known commonly as emoticons.

SCP-9121 is capable of effortlessly shapeshifting into any breed of snake, extinct or otherwise, at any time. The garter snake previously described is presumed to be its natural form, but its size shifts often on a whim. These shapeshifts move both bones, scales, organs, flesh and all other biomass to suit the current breed’s non-anomalous features without any damage. These forms can be larger or smaller than the current non-anomalous breed it is mimicking, and can at any time range from lengths and widths invisible to the naked eye, to thirty feet head to tail and one foot thick. This size is theorized to have neither a minimum nor a maximum, and seemingly allows it to escape containment with relative ease. SCP-9121 seems to treat both its chamber and the surrounding facility as some variety of hotel, leaving when it is bored, and returning when it wishes.

SCP-9121 is still under testing and filing, as it has been contained very recently. SCP-9121 was contained of its own volition, and in fact verbally requested to be contained through the aforementioned telepathic communication, stating it “Heard about this place from a friend”.

Further testing and recording is needed, but SCP-9121 does not seem hostile or malicious in any way. Thus, further official filing is not of highest priority. If that changes, the drafts and informal reports are in the foundation database under level-one clearance.
