C.H.U.D. (1984) and It (1986)

While its very unlikely that there are monsters in the NYC sewers like in the movie C.H.U.D., there are still some dangerous things down there.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C.H.U.D.#Plot

Entertainment and excrement, WTF?

The monster in the sewer theme has been around for quite a while.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It_(1986 novel)

Police investigate videos of men mysteriously emerging from New York City sewers

There’s no threat to the public, and officers have scoured the sewer system to make sure “nothing nefarious had been left behind,” a law enforcement source said. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/police-investigate-videos-men-mysteriously-emerging-new-york-city-sewe-rcna347914

When some men are seen mysteriously emerging from the sewer, it must be investigated immediately. Sometimes drills are conducted by various agencies, that local law enforcement might not always be aware of. Thus, its important that good interagency communication is maintained.

https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/brooklyn-sewer-manhole-video-urban-explorers/

Whether its some urban explorers, robbers, or someone wanting to plant something dangerous, every manhole cover should have some kind of a sensor tag, or security seal.

https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/manhole-brooklyn-sewer-system-break-in-video/

https://people.com/cause-of-death-revealed-grandma-died-after-falling-into-uncovered-manhole-nyc-11979445 The tragic incident of a woman-who-fell-into-NYC-manhole-and-died-of-scald-burns-and-other-injuries shouldn't have happened.

https://www.reddit.com/r/nyc/comments/1tu29o6/police_investigate_videos_of_men_mysteriously/

Any manhole cover should never be left unattended, not just because a person can fall in, but if someone wants to use it for access to plant a device to cause harm.

All this tracking of people and things could lead the world into an intersection of various Black_Mirror scenarios.

Its one thing if mapping and tracking tech can help people, but there is also a potential to reduce a person to being like a mouse in a maze in a lab.

Of course 14_Wall_Street wasn't going to stop much taller buildings to be constructed in NYC. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/14_Wall_Street

How Matrix Ressurections could have been so much better

https://www.reddit.com/r/matrix/comments/1tmrok6/is_the_matrix_ressurections_worth_watching/

A dream within a digital dream, a game within a larger game engine...

M4 really did have some interesting moments, but there could have been better coordination between the layers and versions of the MATRIX world and the real world and how it might be within a larger simulation.

The 13th Floor never had any sequels, but ended with a clue that this world could be part of a cosmic simulation. Its a fascinating mix of the protagonist interacting with AI human programs and ultimately questioning the nature of his own reality.

Dark City never had any sequels, but was quite an interesting alien abduction movie. The protagonist eventually realizes that he is among a group of humans trapped on a flat-top, ET stage ship in which the captured humans are in a cross between a laboratory and a zoo.

Secret Service kills man who opened fire at White House security checkpoint

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/gunshots-reported-near-white-house-rcna346671

He was already on the radar of law-enforcement. He was obviously enraged about something and wanted to resort to violence.

https://www.cbsnews.com/live-updates/white-house-gun-shots-north-lawn/

Was he upset that the US only has 2 major parties to choose from?

https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/23/us/politics/white-house-shooting.html

Was trying to attack the White-House his primary objective, or did he have as specific person in mind?

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2026/05/23/gunshots-at-white-house-lead-to-lockdown-fbi-says-live-updates--live/90238194007/

He had psychological problems and didn't seem to know or care that security and law enforcement were ready for him if he should return to cause more trouble.

https://www.cnn.com/2026/05/23/us/white-house-shooting-nasire-best-invs

He either didn't seem to understand or care that by returning armed with the intent to cause violence, wouldn't go well for him.

https://people.com/suspect-shooting-incident-near-white-house-identified-man-previously-arrested-11983013

Thus, he was likely on a suicide mission.

https://www.cnn.com/2026/05/23/us/white-house-shooting-nasire-best-invs "Officers had encountered Best multiple times near the White House last summer, according to a court affidavit, which says he was “known to the Secret Service” for “walking around the White House complex inquiring how to gain access at various entry points.”

He might have no longer wanted to live in a country on a world in its present state of affairs.

Is Simulation Theory an anthropocentric and egocentric cope for not being able to reconcile with the randomness of life and the universe?

https://www.reddit.com/r/SimulationTheory/comments/1tkpyxk/simulation_theory_is_an_anthropocentric_and/

If this world was like someone's laboratory, farm or garden, how would anyone know?

There is certainly enough science to convince people that there can't be a cosmic simulation that this world is in.

https://news.ok.ubc.ca/2025/10/30/ubco-study-debunks-the-idea-that-the-universe-is-a-computer-simulation/

Too much data and energy would be required, according to the present level of science.

https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2025/11/251110021052.htm

Plus, a lot of people would be uncomfortable to seriously consider that they are in some type of a constructed reality.

https://pierz-newton-john.medium.com/no-were-not-living-in-a-simulation-here-s-why-231cd2637a89

Of course various people who take a religious, spiritual or metaphysical POV would likely be more inclined with the notion of ceremonialism or some kind of a constructed reality.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45780821 Perhaps sometimes thinking too big is like not seeing the forest, because of all of the trees surrounding you.

https://www.reddit.com/r/entp/comments/my4cz9/what_is_the_proof_that_the_universe_is_not_a simulation

Thus, an Earth simulation or even a city simulation can reveal various peculiar things in the form of synchronicity.
