Has anybody else noticed that Viscous seems overtly childish in the new voice lines?

I'm not sure if it's the direction that the voice actor has been given, the lack of sound edits that the older lines had (from what I've heard, the current lines aren't yet finished edit-wise), the writing or all of it as a whole.

Viscous's writing direction has shifted from the friendly yet determined emissary of The Deep, willing to put the goal of defeating The Adversary before everything else. (e. g. him saying that The Djinn's problems are less serious than The Deep's.)... To a second grader. It's a fun line, one of many the update added, but it often feels like an outlier in an otherwise solid character.

Viscous is an emissary, a political figure of the Deep with a message and ambition first, and a goo ball that studies the customs of the surface, second, not a baby.

Someone with so little understanding of what it is to be a human should never be allowed to be in a position to hurt someone many humans.

Same uniform,

Different outlook.

Someone said to me that being ready isnt a feeling, its a choice, I started walking every day, eating better and counting my calories and peristance really did matter, 40kg in 10 months, all naturally.

big thanks to this sub for some great inspirations, and the r/bald sub for just being a really great positivity space in general.

Edit: To answer the question that a lot of people ask, no i did not use any weight loss meds or injections, in fact im on less meds now than before (blood pressure used to be high)

And the "Whats the secret?" question I answered an inbox for and posted that reponse in the comments below, Im not a professional, but I aint gatekeeping helpful advice either

• Source 1
• Source 2)

1. The Cult of the Tree, Alan Wake 2: the opening minutes of the game supposedly show this group murdering a man running through the woods terrified. There is graffiti and legends in the nearby town framing them as a pagan cult who roams the woods committing ritualistic murders. Towards the end it is revealed the cult is more of a neighborhood watch who kill Taken (People possessed by a malevolent sentient darkness) before they can spread the darkness and claim more victims. The scary stories about the cult are actually spread by the cult themselves to keep people away from the woods at night where the Taken and the Dark presence lurk.

2. King Alfred, Assassins Creed Valhalla: King Alfred is suggested to be the leader of a centuries old cult called the order of the ancients. Throughout the game you receive letters from an anonymous source named “Poor fellow soldier of Christ” feeding you information to help you assassinate members of this cult one by one. It turns out Alfred IS the leader of the Order of ancients but he’s also the Poor Fellow Soldier of Christ. He inherited the leadership from his father but was disgusted by the cult and its methods of control, so secretly fed Eivor and the assassins information to help them bring down the entire cult.

3.Slugworth, Charlie and the chocolate Factory: Presented as a rival businessman, offering children wealth if they steal Willy Wonka’s secrets and bring them to him. At the end he is revealed to work for Wonka, only pretending to be a rival to test the trustworthiness of said children.

1. Morgan Moonscar (and zombies), Scooby Doo on Zombie Island: At first glance Morgan and his zombie army are pretty obviously the villains and IIRC the first ever sooby Doo monster that was actually a real monster rather than a guy in a mask. Eventually it turns out the people that hired Mystery Inc are the real bad guys, a pair of werewolf…er were cats? That feed on the life force of humans and have been for some time. Morgan Moonscar and the other zombies were previous victims trying to warn people from meeting their same fate.

My sweet Bonnie. We adopted her as a stray senior in 2021, both myself and my now husband. She was roughly between 15-17 years old when she passed today by vets guess. Last year she was diagnosed with stage 4 CKD. We thought for sure that was what she would die from and she has effectively been on kitty hospice since. I took her to an urgent care earlier because I thought she had a UTI and they found a large mass in her bladder. And the kindest decision to make was to let her rest. She was the sweetest and most gentle cat I've ever had. She loved to cuddle up with you and rest her head under your chin. And she had no regard for personal space and would bully you off your own pillow at night. But I always let her do it. All these photos were taken in the last few days. She was actually doing better than she had in a while, but now I think she was rallying for us. I'll see you in heaven again some day, my sweet old lady.

I wore the headset for way too long before noticing. I figured it was a hair…
Took the headset off and this fucking earwig came out.
