racism is bad and mental illness is unfortunate and poorly if at all treated in the us

I wish racism didn’t taint so much of the spooky because it reflects poorly on the innocent members of the supernatural in our communities who just want to eat our brains

Possible ambiguities:

The F (ᚠ) could be an O (ᚩ) - or even a very poorly-written A (ᚪ). I wouldn't put anything past this guy, since the C at the beginning was so badly mangled.

CHRISMLS??
MILS?? : OIDLES

The writing is also lovely enough that the second M (ᛗ) could be a D (ᛞ). But that's unlikely, given the repetition of the first line (where it's clearly an M).


E:

Shot in the dark here, but it could be the name "CHRIS MILSON" (ᛗᛁᛚᛋᛟᚾ), if he failed to write the "ON" correctly. The characters he does use are vaguely similar. That still wouldn't explain the "FIDLES", though.

There was a GHOST here.
It's gone now.
I'm betting it's "Chris likes milk tiddies" written badly.

SuperMechagodzilla posted:

I believe the ^ over the CHRIS, the smiley face, and the poo poo underneath are just decorative. If you ignore that stuff, you get:

CHRISMLS??
MILS?? : FIDLES

The last five characters of the first line are apparently repeated on the second line, but with an additional "i". This could indicate that they hosed up the first attempt, and that it's 'supposed to' read:

CHRIS MILS??
MILS?? : FIDLES

The ?? parts are the characters that resemble an x and a backwards dollar sign, which have yet to be identified.

Current hypothesis: you got a white supremacist named Chris haunting the terlet, and he's got pretty bad writing.

I swear I’ve seen the dollar sign looking thing in a video game that uses faux runes in a puzzle or two.

I also got “Chris” and a bunch of gibberish using a table for a runic font that may or may not follow any of the actually runic written languages. But it was also missing the dollar signy thing.

Poke me.
I studied Scandinavian history back in my university days, with a focus mainly on the pre-Christian era. While I dropped out before obtaining my degree, I can say with certainty that your script is elder Futhark. Or rather, elder Futhark with messed-up diacritics. The person who wrote that probably did not know how to read runes and copied from a sheet of paper, because the text is actually mirrored.

Unfortunately, even if you flip the text back around, it's still a bunch of nonsense. A rough translation is "there was a hole here. It's gone now."

Haven't we all at some point knew a guy who listened to prog rock, drove an airbrushed van, and had a dozen posters of wizards on his walls?

I can totally see some long-haired scrawny wizard-core nerd in the 70s doing this to try and open a portal to the other side while he's baked out of his gourd with his crew of wizard-obsessed bros.
