I thought that it had been established that the Voynich was basically a fancy version of the doodle pad that used to sit by the phone and that there was no special meaning to it.
I regret to inform you that cryptogeography does exist, it's in that weirdly nazi end of the Atlantis myth which supposes the existence of Lemuria, Hyperboria and most alarmingly Thule.
I was very confused but not particularly surprised that Conan the Barbarian had spawned a Nazi conspiracy theory until I realized I was a dumbass and that was Hyboria.
On the other hand, now I realize what myth he was ripping off with the name which is honestly pretty great because it was the only reference I didn't get lol
The Exploring Series is currently doing a multi-part reading of it on YouTube and I honestly feel like he's a great entry point for anyone to get into SCP as a media. Not only does he have this dry, burocratic voice that fits the vibe of someone reading these things at a mandatory training seminar, but he has an amazing joke delivery when he makes them, and he actually elaborates on the situation at the end and when it gets too heady. Having him expound on fifthism is the only reason I understand the narrative because most of the references and implications flew way over my head.

Crypto bro-ology implies the existence of ordinary bro-ology, which is how we discovered the bro code.

Bro-ology, first founded by Brosef Brochevsky. With his simple declaration. Bros before Hoes.

Current research in the field is mostly focused on how to resolve the Bro Is A Ho Paradox

That has spun off an entirety new field of theobrotical physics. “If the bro is in a box, he is both a bro and a ho until observed”

Now I must learn the squigonometric functions and use them to solve an indefinite integral because I can.

I'd love to be a cryptoanthropologist, studying the cultural impact of artificial lighting on shadow people and their societies.
Of course I can speak lovecraftian elder god, I got my BA in cryptoetemology!
I bet cryptopaleontology is booming with the consistent Jurassic World releases.

For more interesting cryptobotany, Gemini Home Entertainment could also be considered cryptobotany
