It's obvious none of us are sure of what's going on. We can't be, right now.
Still, I "think" I'm "finding" little clues/suggestions here and there.
For instance, I read that Believer article, and I'll quote something intriguing Reznor had said in the interview:
"If I had a fifteen-song full-length record now, ready to go today--if it lent itself to it, I might split it up into five three-song EPs that come out every couple of weeks. And that would give me five spikes of interest instead of one. Because as soon as your record leaks, it's like your cards are on the table, and everyone's on to the next thing: the collectible mindset."

Grant it, the context in which TR speaks here is referring to how to preserve your album from becoming old before it's even new.
The little crack in the ice for me was seeing the first picture 5 days from today; the second, 4 days; the third and fourth, 3.
No evidence on Friday, nor yesterday. While the idea of today being a holiday therefore NIN will show/give/tell us something today may sort of wax bullshit...it's still an interesting notion...also considering this day or the 15th of 2007, we heard "My Violent Heart." Yeah, there's the whole "heart" bit meshing with this holiday, and all, but the point is: Reznor could quite possibly hint us or surprise today, especially with tree to four days of buildup and then silence for the next two.
Well fucking said... I want a 15 track album of awesome vocals,and great dark music.
And, yeah, it could be tomorrow. Could be weeks from now. Most likely not months, when it comes to what's "going on" right now. Sure, it may not be NIN-related...
Main point of all of this: it could be tonight. And, yes, I will stay excited and keep an eye out for that. Or, maybe I'll just wait till tomorrow...or days beyond that.
Fuck, I know nothing.
