From my few dealings with JWs some years back, what struck me as ingenious in the GB’s strategy was precisely how they hid themselves in the shadows, because that directly helped to support the illusion of their word (in magazines etc.) being the word of Jehovah. It blinded the congregation from seeing that they’re ”worshipping” (i.e. putting their effort to) not a god, but just an organization led by this bunch of elderly guys in the American headquarters. It’s interesting to hear that the GB have apparently now abandoned this strategy for whatever reason. I agree with you that this is a good thing; they exposing themselves like this should help to open the eyes of more Witnesses to the very worldly ways the organization actually works.

That one-sided smirk at 0:50… perfect!

The thought of doing this has always terrified me. It’s all just rock, and I’d be scraping away much of the fossil while leaving much of the matrix unscraped, and the end result would bear little resemblance with what the specimen actually once was.

Now I want to see those caricatures!

I see they’re even serving radioactive drinks there!

Why don’t we build deep below ground instead of high above it?

What’s with all the typos in those popup text boxes?

Almost like watching an Aphex Twin video.

Got the trout pen from Grand Illusions last Christmas for my mother, an avid fisher. It was a hit!

I almost get cramps just by looking at this.
