That’s probably a bad sign coming from a palm reader.
She was walking alone and wearing a short skirt, so of course a creep followed her into this alley.

Head's Up: TSH is going dark...indefinitely
# In accordance with the results of our poll, this subreddit will be joining in on the protest of Reddit's API changes that will essentially kill all 3rd party Reddit apps. ## What's going on? A recent Reddit policy change threatens to kill many beloved third-party mobile apps, making a great many quality-of-life features not seen in the official mobile app permanently inaccessible to users. On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit, from Apollo to Reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader. Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps, this is a step toward killing other ways of customizing Reddit, such as Reddit Enhancement Suite or the use of the old.reddit.com desktop interface . This isn't only a problem on the user level: many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free. ## What's the plan? On June 12th, [many subreddits](https://old.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/1401qw5/incomplete_and_growing_list_of_participating/) will be going dark to protest this policy. Some will return after 48 hours: others will go away permanently unless the issue is adequately addressed, since many moderators aren't able to put in the work they do with the poor tools available through the official app. This isn't something any of us do lightly: we do what we do because we love Reddit, and we truly believe this change will make it impossible to keep doing what we love. **The two-day blackout isn't the goal, and it isn't the end. Should things reach the 14th with no sign of Reddit choosing to fix what they've broken, we'll use the community and buzz we've built between then and now as a tool for further action.** ## What can you do as a user? * Complain. Message the mods of /r/reddit.com, who are the admins of the site: message /u/reddit: submit a support request: comment in relevant threads on /r/reddit, such as [this one](https://www.reddit.com/r/reddit/comments/12qwagm/an_update_regarding_reddits_api/), leave a negative review on their official iOS or Android app- and sign your username in support to [this post.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Save3rdPartyApps/comments/13yh0jf/dont_let_reddit_kill_3rd_party_apps/) * Spread the word. Rabble-rouse on related subreddits. Meme it up, make it spicy. Bitch about it to your cat. Suggest anyone you know who moderates a subreddit join the coordinated mod effort at /r/ModCoord. * Boycott and spread the word...to Reddit's competition! Stay off Reddit entirely on June 12th through the 13th- instead, take to your favorite non-Reddit platform of choice and make some noise in support! * Don't be a jerk. As upsetting this may be, threats, profanity and vandalism will be worse than useless in getting people on our side. Please make every effort to be as restrained, polite, reasonable and law-abiding as possible. ## What can you do as a moderator? * Join the coordinated effort over at /r/ModCoord * Make a sticky post showing your support, [A template has been created here](https://www.reddit.com/r/ProCSS/wiki/api_protest_template) you can use or modify to your liking, and be sure to crosspost it to /r/ModCoord. **Thank you for your patience in the matter,** **-Mod Team**
I sighed as I picked up the phone and said, “911, what’s your emergency?”
My lack of emotion turned to despair as a voice two feet away from where I sat whispered, “I’ve just witnessed a murder.”
I petted the little puppy in my arms, reading all the praises and compliments after her rescue video reached 1M views on YouTube.
With a smile I opened my phone camera, dropped her into the sewer, and started recording once again.
The priest has been trying to exorcise me out of this body for two days, but I’m not going anywhere.
It’s the only way to keep them all safe from the child.
I tried to untie her from the chair, blind and shaking.
The rope was so strange, for it felt like warm wet meat and i couldn't find the end of it yet.
She crouched, hidden, motionless as a statue and barely breathing, hoping he wouldn't find her.
Mommy had always taught her not to leave with a stranger, and these men in helmets with hoses calling her name were strangers.
I watched in shock as the woman threw it to the ground, and then exclaimed "I shouldn't have to pay for this as it is damaged"
The newborn on the ground was screaming in pain, as the mother continued to argue about the hospital bill
“You said you’ve always wanted a sibling,” my father said.
As he hugged me from behind with both palms on my pregnant belly, he whispered, “Soon you will have one.”
It was on every radio station, "Cover your eyes, they can't hurt you if they can't see your eyes!"

I woke up to the sound of chickens chirping at each other on this fresh morning_
_and looked out the window of my cage. How many more reincarnations before I was human again?

I figured that was the safest way off getting her out of the house without him realizing I saw him.
"I swear, I was just innocently walking home; I was kicking stones, and one just got away from me!"
The Father and The Holy Spirit were still angry despite my apology, claiming that the stone was rolling toward their pet-project in the Milky Way galaxy...
I always thought those people in the zombie movies who hid their bites from their friends where dumb.
But now I'm looking up at the zombies getting cured, and I wish I had been dumber before I shot myself.
“My baby would never do something like that!” mommy screamed at the policeman.
Now that my little brother is gone, I’m finally mommy’s baby again.

“So in a way, you already know what it is like... I’m just going to help you remember”, she continued, snipping her scissors in the air.

He said “Cole are you here with me?” I moved the planchette to yes.

“Protection,” he answered nervously.
The young boy was taught to poke holes in boxes that housed any of the little critters he captured so they could breathe.
So when his little sister told him she had butterflies in her stomach, knife in hand, he knew what he had to do.
In an isolated room, a group of people are assigned with a number from one to ten.
You can guess why everyone was afraid of seven.
I opened another pack of cigarettes as she admonished me, “You know, those things can kill you.”
It wasn’t until I woke up screaming into the pillow pressed down hard on my face, as a thousand cigarettes exact bloody vengeance on me for all their charred brethren, did I realize the true meaning of the phrase.
His head strapped in place, he screamed as she pulled the guillotine, cutting it off.
Then she readjusted the small device, and told the crying man: "Get ready for the next inch."
"Happy Birthday Ellie!" we cried out joyfully, as my daughter blew out the candles on her cake.
"That's him Officer, the man who took her" I said, pointing at the stranger in the back of the shot as the policeman paused the home video.
After the tour Bus accident, we boarded the another bus which arrived and waiting there
When I asked the conductor why my friends weren't getting on the bus, he replied: "because they survived the accident".
I chased him, gun in hand, as he ran down the street, screaming.
If I couldn’t contain patient zero, we’d be in serious trouble.
"It's called Heterochromia" my little girl said, proudly pointing to her blue and green eyes.
I left her standing with the bloody orbs in her upturned palm, as I sprinted to the playroom to find her little brothers.
They didn't understand how she'd died as she'd been bitten several times before and was immune to the virus.
When they did the autopsy, her writhing, mangled insides revealed that while she was immune, the fetus wasn't.
Tyler's classmates always mocked him for being so overweight.
But when the plane crashed, stranding them on this barren island, they were very grateful for his plumpness.
I leaned into the mirror, squinting as I raised the tweezers to my eyebrow to pluck a single hair that had been annoying me for a while now.
It was strangely difficult to pull, but I could only scream as I realised I had pulled out the leg of a very angry spider in my skin.

Good thing i already finished the ritual and the swarm of dead students mauled him in a span of seconds.

"BBBBBBZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ."
The industrial fridge's overwhelming buzzing drowned out the trapped young girl's fading screams, while only a few steps away her parents left to join the search party on the 3rd night since reporting her missing.
My stomach dropped as I turned on the TV, desperately trying to see if my son was alright after hearing the local high school was dealing with an active shooter.
My fear turned to confusion quickly - why did every news reporter know him by name?
I immediately stopped stalking the woman I’ve had a crush on for the past six months.
When I discovered dozens of pictures of me sleeping, hanging in her closet.
After hearing the prophesy of who would kill him, the man had of course slit his beloved son's throat.
As he lay there, completely paralyzed and wracked with agony for the last 10 years, he realized that not all killing was done with malice.
