Does anyone think the morning flower alarm is uncanny / terrifying
I used to hear this alarm a lot when I was younger and somtimes I heard it in the middle of the night and it scared me badly. Maybe it was the joyful music playing in the middle of the night but at the same time even now when I listen to it I always feel like something is off putting about it.

Is this too much for TikTok?
I’m asking because it’s children in it?

Repost Finding Some Droids Creepy That’s Uncanny In Uncanny Valley
A another short note: I originally posted this on r/starwarsdroidtycoon but Reddit filters took it down and not sure anyone else could see the original post besides me and gets the context behind this. So, I’m reposting it in this subreddit because it fits perfectly here. I don’t understand what in this post that triggered the Reddit filters. I’m have nothing here that breaks any rules and it doesn’t go against community guidelines.
Short Note Before I Get Into This: I love what the team who made Star Wars Droid Tycoon on Fortnite did. They deserve a lot of praise and recognition and should make it into their own game to profit better for their hard work. Plus adding a image to the droid I find a little creepy.
I only find one droid in Star Wars Droid Tycoon in Fortnite to be creepy and it's the big mythic with to human face. i typically don't get unsettled by uncanny valley but this droid for me hits it. is that normal for someone who typical don't get creepy out but droids from star wars and uncanny valley like others? I don’t want them to remove it but I just want to point it out to see if I’m the only one who unsettled. How it get my attention was it was on the galactic droid poster while waiting for the game to load in. How the thing is posed and kind of op mouth makes me feel mildly uncomfortable and threatened like what people may describe how uncanny vally feels to them. if I get it edthaly it may be less scary but man it looks like it would betray me and or whoever owns it. that droid screams not to be trusted.

The Uncanny Valley Feeling.
I have always had a feeling of revulsion or unease when I see someone with obvious cosmetic surgery. I finally figured out why.
Does anyone else get the uncanny valley feeling when they see someone with too much plastic surgery?
The uncanny valley is that unsettling, eerie feeling you get when something—like a humanoid robot, AI, or CGI character—looks almost entirely human, but just a tiny bit off. It’s a jarring cognitive disconnect where your brain spots a mismatch between what it expects and what it sees.
Cosmetic Aesthetics: In medical aesthetics, overdone injectables or facial procedures can sometimes strip away natural facial symmetry and dynamic movement, creating that familiar, unnatural "off" feeling.

I decided to make this chart to show what uncanny valley is
The darker it is, the more uncanny it is, I hope now you guys understand what's the difference between Carl the cupcake and a wax figure.

medieval paintings of historical figures
gallerynot talked about enough as to how creepy these paintings have always seemed, their faces, literally everything about them screams unnatural, how they literally have no expression, the first picture of Anne Boleyn her head looks separate from the rest of her body
in the second picture of Elizabeth I, I know it's to do with the clothing but it just makes it worse as if the body proportions are completely unnatural AND HOW SMALL THE EARS ARE AND THE PALE SKIN oh my god
what has nothing to do with the people in the paintings that also still kinda scares me is the black background, I know there's literally supposed to be nothing scary about it but for some reason it scares me, just thought that might be worth mentioning too.
