The concept of underwater caving utterly horrifies me.
Spelunking itself is scary enough. Utter pitch blackness, with millions of tonnes of rock pressuring down waiting to crush you, completely disconnecting you from sunlight and fresh air. Diving is probably okay, but there's the whole drowning thing to contend with. Combine the two and I'm getting sweaty palms just sitting here typing this. I got some serious heeby jeebies just looking down into an underwater cave at a sink hole in Mexico. Fuuuuuck everything about it.
Just spent more time than I should have going through SCP articles.
How in the world did 93 end up in the top 5 highest-rated pages? It starts out decent enough; but the further I read, the worse the writing got. The very last diary entry was especially bad.

that last diary was someone gone half mad and probably dying.

the effort in the world building, mostly. and most people only read the start of it rather than all of it
Cave diving is dangerous even with the right equipment, from what I hear.
Cave Diving is deadly as fuck. There are dives that people regularly do that have like a 30% death rate. It's also similar to climbing everest in that if something tiny goes wrong, nobody can help you. If somebody helps you, it puts too much strain on them and they'll end up dying too.

Honestly 093 is probably in my top 5.
Like, yeah, I get that
But it just feels very clumsy in comparison to a lot of other SCPs. Even the ones that are essentially short stories (which 93 might as well be).
The first entries are interesting in that you slowly start to get an idea of what's going on. But then the very last entry is clumsy exposition spelling almost everything out. It feels very blatantly like, "Now that I, the author, have teased all this stuff, let me tell you what it all means."
Oh yeah, and the "bullshit" entry was just laughably ridiculous.

093 is also one of the very first ones
It's notable because it was probably one of the first attempts at world building on the site
I am only understanding bits and pieces of the world that account is building but i like what i see
yeah i kinda like it for that reason honestly
usually i'm the kinda guy who wants, like, sixty pages of world-building and exposition but being fed a trickle of information piecemeal just makes me want more and it's unusually gripping
Edit: WARNING, upon further reading some of these entries are nsfw
I was kind of into it until I read "magical space pussy." Also dude's Korean is surprisingly legit, doesn't read like Google Translate output.
Yeah that entry and the ones that accompany it are... Well. Unfortunate. I skipped right over those. The rest of the entries were interesting enough for me to keep reading and I'm glad I did.

Fair enough, I'll give it another shot soon. Thanks for the protip!
Oh shiiiii in the latest Lore podcast he revealed that he's been working with the producers of The Walking Dead for the last eight months to turn it into a TV show.

seriously, though, there's a chance that window has a bit of mirroring going on, on the outside.

If it makes you feel better, in Australia they sell little pouches made from their nut sacks.

So.... it's a big movie screen?
Why I fear the ocean.
Multi-storey custom-designed house, built on top of a hill probably next to a national park?
The owner can afford anti-kangaroo bodyguards.

"Magical", not "musical".
Well, yeah, this makes sense
It's an enchanted keyboard
