We end this week with the latest on The Monolith. For those following along, last week it appeared in the remote Utah wilderness, then it disappeared. Here’s what happened just this week:
- 11/27 – Another metal monolith suddenly appears on a hillside in Romania.
- 11/30 – A giant wooden phallus disappears off a Bavarian mountaintop, leaving behind only a pile of sawdust.
- 12/01 – The Romanian monolith disappears. Joining the Utah monolith and the wooden phallus perhaps?
- 12/02 – A social media influencer comes forward to say that he and a group of friends removed the Utah monolith to protect the land.
- 12/02 – Another metal monolith appears in Atascadero, a small town in California, overlooking the Pacific coast.
- 12/03 – A group of kids drive five hours and livestream the destruction of the Atascadero monolith replacing it with a crude wooden cross.
- 12/04 – now even Vegas has a Monolith.
