Wendigo
Mythical creature
Wendigo is a mythological creature or evil spirit originating from Algonquian folklore. The concept of the wendigo has been widely used in literature and other works of art, such as social commentary and horror fiction. The wendigo is often said to be a malevolent spirit, sometimes depicted as a creature with human-like characteristics, which possesses human beings. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wendigo
They're not exactly mythical. It's also a description of a type of psychosis that leads to cannibalism.
Seems skeptical, at best, if the psychosis is even real and not just a retroactive diagnosis based on third hand story telling.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wendigo
Either way the mythical creature came first.
No, the indigenous people who created the "mythical creature" say that they mean it literally to describe a real thing and that thing is the psychosis. The modern diagnosis comes from their description of the psychosis.
breed wendigos
Got a couple of acres in the swamp, I could do this. Deadfalls everywhere, just gotta find one in front of sour ground.
"Sometimes dead is bettah."
how do i summion wengido
Here you go
On second thought, scratch the whole wendigo idea. Perhaps I'll just stick to breeding normal critters like raccoons or sasquatches.
There's already enough monsters with an insatiable appetites fed by blood and suffering who's appetite grows the more they consume: billionaires.
Perhaps billionaires are just wendigos with a job… 🤔

Well that's no way to raise a loyal nightmare army
Idk man, I think sasquatches are probably a lot more loyal than wendigos.
To be honest, I really do wanna do this 🥺.
Just don't start dabbling in bomb-crafting and manifesto writing and you'll be sorted
Writing manifestos isn't illegal and neither is bomb crafting, as long as you do it in the privacy of your own home and don't mail them to other people.
Almost correct. Depends on the type.
Yeah, like I bet the nuclear type is not legal even in your own home 😂.
I guess I didn’t consider that.
Good luck getting your hands on enough enriched nuclear material though.
You could probably make it yourself 🤔... but you'd have to make a neutron gun first...
Nah, that's for the big city, who am I gonna scare with bombs in the middle of nowhere, lol.
Everyone hush.... we don't need a lucky 10,000 for this one.
Yeah... I don't live in the US 😂. I know the deal with you guys and the b word 😂.
Barbecue. Barbecue is the only thing we talk about here. Just don't bring up the other B word.
🤐
Ted Kaczynski approves
I new i couldn't be the only one who thought that.
Zero reason not to do this if that's what your heart is telling you. Just leave a note for your loved ones to find 10 years after you leave.
Okay, but I'd rather breed chupacabras. I do have a gift for making things suck, after all.
So Diana's been breeding wendigos this whole time?
For all we know…
For a second I thought that was going towards Ted Kaminski.
Sorta, but without the mail bombs.
The industrial revolution and its consequences...
I'm sorry, but I have too
Until Dawn?
I see no downsides
You might wanna read up on wendigos before going down that path. I don't think they'd make very good pets.
