this is by far my favorite safety/warning sign btw. they really went off with this one

ri-rawr-isnt-ok

No cuz I fucking love this sign. It’s not an actual barrier so it’s not like some sort of challenge it simply says “fuck around and you will find out”

Ohohoho I LOVE “fuck around and find out” signs, especially the really dramatic and ominous (but true) ones

(Context for the last one: it’s a WWII era sign posted around the soldiers’ washroom mirror, warning them to never discuss military plans in places where civilians could hear them and report back to the enemy, e.g. in restaurants and pubs in the country. “Loose lips sink ships”.)

I also love these two, which I would place in the category of “You already fucked around, now you’re about to find out.”

Aerated water is fucking scary. It's water that has a fuckton of gas in it, which reduces the buoyancy to the point where you will immediately start to sink if you fall in.

ive been collecting these recently and wanted to add some of my favorites

Two trail signs, one on top of the other. The first one reads "ATTENTION: Olomana Trail Users. Six people have fallen to their deaths after hiking past the first peak." The second, larger sign reads "Olomana Trail. 11/2022: Fatal fall between second and third peak. 4/2022: Fatal fall between second and third peak. 2018: Fatal fall at or near the third peak. 2015: Fatal fall between first and second peak. 2014: Fatal fall between second and third peak. 2011: Fatal fall between second and third peak."ALT
A trail warning sign that reads "GORGE REGULATIONS: Swimming is prohibited. No access beyond this point. Violators are subject to arrest. Strong undercurrents and debris trap people under hidden rock ledges in a 30-50 feet deep pool below the falls. People have died swimming here." It includes an image showing the currents and hidden ledges, along with a quote from a recovery diver: "Even as a trained, properly equipped, professional diver I wouldn't swim here if I did not have to recover a body."ALT
A beach warning sign that reads "DANGER! DEATH HAS OCCURRED HERE. Sudden high waves happen without warning. Even on calm days. Dark rocks are slippery. Stay far back. Rescue here is unlikely due to conditions. Don't take risks - Leave here alive."ALT
A beach warning sign that reads "148 persons have drowned in this lake. Two not wearing a life jacket. 146 wearing a life jacket." The numbers are placed using stickers, so the count is likely updated often.ALT
A trail warning sign that reads "STOP. This area ahead has the worst weather in America. Many have died there from exposure, even in the summer. Turn back now if the weather is bad. White Mountain National Forest." The sign itself is very weathered (no pun intended) and scratched up.ALT
A US Forest Service trail sign that reads “THE DEADLY BELLS. The beautiful Maroon Bells, and their neighbor Pyramid Peak, have claimed many lives in the past few years. They are not extreme technical climbs, but they are unbelievably deceptive. The rock is down-sloping, rotten, loose, and unstable. It kills quickly and without warning. The snowfields are treacherous, poorly consolidated, and no place for a novice climber. The gullies are death traps. Expert climbers who did not know the proper routes have died on these peaks. Don't repeat their mistakes, for only rarely have these mountains given a second chance. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLIMB IF NOT QUALIFIED.”ALT
tw irl death fun fact! that first sign is over at the devil spring in florida ive been there! cool spot while i ofc dont plan on diving that far i DO plan on actually diving there someday

i'm not sure how many dsmp fans realize just how much fan music is out there. like we all know derivakat and cg5's stuff, and yeah it's fantastic but there is so much more

precious jewel amor has so many dsmp songs with the most heart-wrenching lyrics i've ever heard and beautiful music to accompany them. and they have music for characters that don't always get a bunch of recognition! cbad enjoyers, try listening to savior. cPuffy has Empty and Do It Again. cNiki? You bet! try Hidden in the Depths, Nothing to Lose, or the cNiki AND cJack song, Hate (Heal). ALSO PJA uses repeating motifs across songs to show relationships between characters which just. Amazing!!!

Amanda Fagan has the same range of characters, and her sound varies from sweet and simple ukulele to highly-produced. cCrimeboys enjoyers, listen to their relationship progress through Please Don't Make Me Choose, Play With Dynamite, and Sunken and Shattered. cJack fans, enjoy Bittersweet and Invisible. And I can't forget the SBI song, When Nothing Mattered More Than Friends, ft. other artists such as seiggel, butterscotch bread, and...

Mizz Fish! My god, their voice is so incredible, and they have some of the most creative songs I've seen! Try a song detailing cRanboo's inner monologue inside of his panic room. Or the most beautiful ballad mourning L'manburg.

this post is getting long but. seriously, if you enjoy fan-made music and/or are searching for more dsmp content to consume, check out kroh, megan shumway, Kanaya, ellienort, seiggel, butterscotchbread, Frankie!!, Hator, spirental, trashyinferno. there's so much out there, and you can hear the passion put into these songs. they deserve to be heard!

(Also, most of these artists have original music out too, which you should also absolutely listen to!)
