The photo shows a printed notice taped to a textured white wall, likely inside a library (bookshelves are visible in the background on the right).

At the top of the notice is a “no” symbol: a red circle with a diagonal slash over a picture of a stack of Oreo cookies.

Below that is a white text box with a message that reads:

“In light of recent events, NO OREOS will be allowed in the library.”

The overall design has a yellow-to-orange gradient background, making it look like an official warning sign, but with no explanation.

@catsalad @Netraven @liamvhogan was it keeping a secret stash of oreos inside the books? (pro-tip: use the drill bit for cutting holes in kitchen counters)

@liamvhogan Spooky.

Photo of a door with several signs attached. Below the room number "UK 48" is a small sign labelling the door as the entrance to the "PHANTOM ROOM".

@liamvhogan For anyone that's wondering, the phantom that room contained was this thing, the UK Schmidt Telescope's phantom. It is a specialised electro-mechanical computer, used by the telescope's original control system to keep the telescope dome and its windscreen aligned with the telescope itself. It has since been exorcised from the phantom room and banished to an unused office.

The pointer in the middle of the phantom was linked to the telescope drives, and pointed in the direction the telescope was looking. As it moved it pushed the white arch (representing the dome) and the D-shaped frame (representing the dome windscreen) around. Sensors on the arch & frame were linked to the dome & windscreen drives, making them follow the telescope. The phantom enabled the UK Schmidt Telescope to do real time coordinate tranformations without needing an electronic computer at all from 1973 to 2013.

Photos by me, from 2019.

@liamvhogan and two gems from the fascinating genre of Singapore police signs. They don’t mess around with anti-crime communication

A portion of a poster that says • If a stranger approaches you with a 'magic stone' that can cure diseases or chase away bad luck, be on the alert.
• He is just after your money.
• Ignore him, walk away and report to the police immediately.

@liamvhogan @catsalad please, do not.

A photo of a yellow phone box with grass and fall leaves behind it, with a printed sign posted over the empty front. The top says "Emergency phone not installed" and the bottom reads "please do not have an emergency at this location"
