#shepherds maze

#shepherds maze is a crazy game that makes people go crazy when they play it. The idea comes from a blind man who took LSD every day for 40 years and kept a journal about what he experienced. He was homeless and thought up the game in a dream. Players claim that it is addictive and life changing and that they can’t live without it, they are obsessed with solving the last steps of the maze. Since 2006 only 8 players have made it to the last stage but only 3 have solved it and all 3 of those players moved to different countries and changed their names immediately after. #shepherds maze is one of the most mysterious things on the deep web.

Jared, did you know that Tim just solved #shepherds maze right before he moved to New Zealand? He divorced his wife and sold his house and moved, his wife says it has something to do with the maze...

#shepherds maze

#Shepherds maze is An extremely secretive online & real world game that prides itself on being undiscoverable. Basically fight club “the first rule of fight club is you do not talk about fight club”, but mostly online and sometimes linked to mysterious conspiracy theories and government scandals. It seems that some advanced players include government personnel and that highly guarded secrets are often leaked within the game, in exchange for other secrets that can advance the player within “the maze”

#shepherds maze is a lifelong commitment. Players never use the hashtag, it’s taboo in the community.

My uncle is a major in the army and he found out some crazy stuff just by playing shepherds maze.

Shepherds maze 

Shepherds maze (sheps maze) is a highly secretive but allegedly exciting online alternate reality game in which players can join by invitation only and is loosely based on a bizarre journal found to have belonged to a paranoid schizophrenic in GA. Aspects of the game are taken directly from the journal in a way that re-enacts scenarios described within. Snapshots of the journal have been seen on Imgur and reddit under fake/ghost/newly created usernames but are usually deleted before anyone has had a chance to save them.

Dude I’ve been playing shepherds maze for a month and it’s so much better than any other ARG I’ve ever played.

Did you see that last snapshot of Shepherds journal? I wonder if there’s any clues that will be in the maze?!

shepherds maze 

An online and alternate reality/ augmented reality “puzzle” spanning several countries over the last 6 years. Players claim to be given orders to complete small tasks and are provided with “keys” in exchange. Shepherds maze is almost definitely tied to falkens maze, another, more exclusive game with less than 100 players in North America that often travel and meet in person to obtain keys and perform tasks.

Ignore that YouTube link, it’s probably someone just playing shepherds maze.

I heard that if you complete the maze they will pay you to moderate new players.

Grindset

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.

“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”

Cheeks 

An Irish phrase meaning shit, derived from ass
(Not to be confused with the literal description of one's buttocks)

"Did you hear the song Aylek$ dropped?"
"Hardly. Her music is absolute cheeks."

"My boyfriend say LaFlame is cheeks."
"Tell your boyfriend I said it's his mixtape that's cheeks."
