help an anon out guys

The fuck is happening in that picture.

>>22649950
This. I keep seeing it and it always freaks me out.

And just so I'm not completely off-topc... what kind of games, OP?

>>22647545
what in gods name is going on here in this pic?

>>22647545
I first saw this picture four years ago, and I still for the life of me can't figure out what the fuck is happening in it, or where it's from.

>>22647545
this is the most terrrifying thing I've ever seen. Someone should make this an SCP about a sextape between that weird ass thing and the girl that slowly does something horrible to you.

yet another good question ruined by the pic that accompanies it
what the fuck am I seeing here

>>22650124
This can't be unseen. I need to know, pretty sure I'm never sleeping without that things face in my mind.

Here we go. Apparently it's something about human loathing.

I know I'd loathe myself if I was being raped by a muppet with a 24/7 band of groupies ready with a pitcher of milk and flab.

I'm not sure why, but this genuinely terrifies me. I know I've seen worse, but those eyes...

>>22650154
Charlie White exploring male self-loathing through photographic puppetry. Using a humanoid puppet he calls “complete fragility manifest in a body”. White presents human frailty through a fictional character, much as a novelist might. As Charlie White tells, his puppet, called Joshua, helps him to explore the themes of male self-image and self-loathing. White places Joshua in a series of vulnerable situations – at a cocktail party or a lover’s house – and photographs the scene. Charlie White is a photographer and filmmaker whose work has been exhibited internationally since 1999. White holds the position of Associate Professor, and is the Director of the MFA program at the University of Southern California’s Roski School of Fine Arts. Charlie White lives and works in Los Angeles California.

This.

/tg/, we have our quest: Destroy that horrible abomination of a puppet, for the good of all mankind.

But seriously, that puppet is fucked up. I remember seeing it when I was around 15, and just not knowing what it was and trying to delete it from my mind.

>>22650256

>Physically exists

No bonus points for figuring out that this thing clearly by now has a will of its own, fueled by loathing, and stalks around devouring people.

>>22650583

Even if he is the self image of someone, what self image does two fat guys pouring milk on a woman and Ray Romano and Sylvester Stallone's love child giving you a prep talk on raping said woman mean for this guy's psyche?

Also, does he browse /tg/?

>>22650565

>>22651453

Adorable pictures and warm fuzzy feelings are our only true weapon. My sword may hold him at bay if he ever attacks, but he's the manifestation of our self-loathing. Only by finding something to be happy about can we defeat him.

>>22650902
Oh wow, I just realized I had not even remotely looked at what OP's post said.

Well, who are we to judge? Though it seems Pony did feel some physical discomfort due to the way they treated her.

Still, these animals are smart like motherfuckers, and I believe that she could have gotten away, maybe. I'm not saying there was no exploitation, but perhaps there was something else as well.

>I believe that she could have gotten away
I'm sure being chained up had nothing to do with it. Bitch was asking for it, wearing those necklaces and bracelets.

There's also the fact an orangutan has the strength to rip a human in half with little effort.
