Reserved.

Mmm, someone might need to move this to the proper page, if it's not supposed to be in an SCP slot.

This looks like it's too few entries on a first glance, but after reading it, it feels like just the right amount. +1

At least to me, the conprocs and description don't really provide a compelling enough hook to draw me deeper into the story, and the entries don't really dig deep enough on an emotional level for me to really feel anything after I'm finished reading. I think the idea itself is interesting, there's just not enough meat on the bone there for me at the moment. -1

Am I missing something? Why is it scheduled for incineration?

The containment protocols need to be fleshed out. Sure, it can be available to anybody, but where is it being kept? What is the security? Wouldn't the foundation arrange for some kind of transcription of whatever was written on the page? I would expect that to be part of the containment protocols.

The test cases need to be standardized. Two of them describe results in the third person (loved the dog, btw) but the third is a description in the first person that comes across more as an interview than as a test result log.

Also, for some reason this shows up as "But not forgotten" in my header and lists, rather than as "SCP-8260"

Presumably it's scheduled for incineration because it's too painful to read.

Imagine never being able to get over grief, because you keep being given information about "here's exactly what the person would be doing today, as told by that person".

And if you don't read it every 24 hours without fail, all the content written in it will vanish, and it will never work for you again.

Brutal. I'd definitely upvote if this wasn't part of Wrathcon.

So just keep using D-Class for the experiments! It just seems counter to foundation ideals to just incinerate something that can safely be locked away.

Also, what about manual transcription of what is written by the people? Have them read it aloud.

Lastly, I would expect things being tested since the journal doesn't seem to include bad days.
