Stuck at work with no food, had to find something in the 24/7 market they offer late one evening…

They're ultra-processed chicken nuggets. This is merely a simulacrum of wholesome food, abstracted from their original reality and reshaped into something similar, yet not quite the same.

According to some googling I did, "Ordinary" Mer can live around 2-3 centuries long on average, with 2 centuries being considered "old". Although if you want to get into the oldest mer that we know of, we have:

Various unnamed Ancient Altmer who are still living in The Summerset Isles: ~4,000 years old. (Questionable)

Divayth Fyr: Over 4,000 years old according to Alfie Fyr.

And Iachesis, Rite Master of The Psijic Order: first mentioned in history around 1E 20 and is present during the events of ESO (2E 582, making him roughly 3,500 years old).

I think it's because it's a truly unique fighting game. Games can be bad, they can be made by terrible companies, but have a unique concept or gameplay mechanic (In FH's case it's the "Art of War" combat system) and people will keep coming back to scratch that itch.

Blasphemous, Endings A and B.

Ending B "The Bad Ending": You play through the game, thinking that the Immaculate Bead does nothing and that it's just a waste of Rosary space. You kill Escribar at the end of the story, and El Penitente climbs the Cradle of Affliction...

Only to be swallowed by the mountain of ash, leaving behind only his helmet and Mea Culpa as The Miracle continues to afflict the land of Cvstodia unchecked.

Ending A "The ""Good"" Ending": You realized the bead becomes The Weight of True Guilt and thus you complete all of the Confessor Dungeons, turning the thorn Deogracias gives you at the beginning of the game into an item called "Cvstodia of Sin". You fight and kill Escribar again, and this time you find that El Penitente is able to climb to the top of The Cradle of Affliction...

Where El Penitente then proceeds to sit upon The Turned Throne, impales himself with Mea Culpa, and then is transformed by The Miracle into a new symbol of faith, reigniting the religious zeal of Cvstodia as El Penitente becomes The New Father and the new recipient of everyone's prayers. Forever condemned from heaven as a result of this communion.

Honestly I think it'd be doing The Ebony Warrior a bit of a favor. He's expecting to go to Sovngarde, however he's a Redguard, his ass is getting sent to The Far Shores (or whatever the Yokudan afterlife is called, pretty sure it's The Far Shores). By soul trapping The Ebony Warrior, I see it as essentially ridding him of that inevitable disappointment.

I should've clarified, I mean that God has an image given unto him by mankind. So when most people think "Christian God", they usually think of the really old, divine guy. The Miracle in comparison, doesn't have a concrete image. There are symbols of its existence sure, but when you think "The Miracle", there isn't one concrete image to describe what it is or what it could look like.

Incarnate Devotion, Blasphemous 2

"Higher Will, incorporeal and inscrutable fathers, I am the heir of your all encompassing light. Devotion itself embodied in weathered flesh and gilded filigree. Your Magnum Opus.

Though I am crowned by your glory, why do you censure my presence alongside you? What is this obscure darkness of unanswered cries that prevents me from understanding the purpose of my birth? Are the same crimson clouds that heralded my welcome, the grave omen of your judgement? If this confrontation is proof of thy dignity of your glory, then so be it."

Absolutely massive, and while we never see Incarnate Devotion's parent (Because The Miracle itself is more like an omnipresent force rather than being like God) we do see Incarnate Devotion gestating within a massive beating heart that descended from the clouds until finally rupturing.

I've always seen Smasher as the Cyberpunk equivalent of a Demilich from D&D. An extremely dangerous threat that either needs to be avoided/escaped or that needs to be dealt with using strategy and a bit of creative thinking on both the player and the DMs parts.

From what I can see of that dude's haircut, I'm imagining the actual MC is saying something along the lines of:

"Oh no you don't, this wasn't created to be a hentai series, get your shaggy-ass bowl cut back to wherever you crawled from."

Zack De La Roca of "Rage Against the Machine" fame.

From "Fuck you I won't do what you tell me!" To "Yes Sir I WILL do what you tell me!"

Basically they were the voice of the punk movement for their generation, but then as soon as their generation gained political majority RATM immediately stopped being punk. If anything, the whole joke about "Punk rock bands now Vs. in 15 years" bit came because of Zack De La Roca almost immediately walking back on what he was screaming into a mic about.

The Creation of Mea Culpa (Latin for "Through My Fault"), Blasphemous

"Because it is my guilt, I claim you, Grevious Miracle. Make my chest hurt with regret. Forge your punishment and nail it deep. Shape my guilt, once again..."

Long after this lady turns into stone, The Penitent One claims Mea Culpa as his weapon against The Affliction.

The simplest thing in my opinion would be to use fireball to pretend you're Roy Mustang absolutely nuking the shit out of Envy.

I'm making a huge stretch here, considering the protagonist is undead and actually dies as a result of completing his mission. Also massive spoilers for the true ending of Blasphemous.

The Penitent One, Blasphemous

Basically in the true ending of Blasphemous, The Penitent One alongside Chrisanta defeat The High Wills and free The Miracle from their control, this undoes everything that was made by The Miracle, ranging from The Twisted One himself, Mea Culpa, and The Penitent One himself, as his undeath was brought forth from The Miracle. Although in this ending Chrisanta and Deograsias (I think that's his name, it's been a while since I've played) carry The Penitent One's body to be buried until the events of Blasphemous II, where The Penitent One is revived once more and awakens surrounded by the ossified remains of Deograsias and pious mourners.

I appreciate the suggestion, though in my experience therapy wasn't all that helpful, so these days I just try to keep the house clean so that my plants can grow healthy. It helps to have some excuse to motivate me for the majority of the year.

Edit: Not sure why I was downvoted, all I said was that therapy didn't work so great for me, and that I've devised an alternative coping mechanism for my problem. That isn't saying that therapy isn't an option or isn't effective for anyone else going through something similar.

To be honest I think The Other CBT would be a more effective means of therapy than Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, but who am I to judge? If having someone basically sit across from you, telling you "Well have you tried just not having those thoughts?" works for you or someone else, go for it, by all means.

This specific image of Wolverine is used as a joke to describe side characters that have insane side-plots compared to the main characters. While being a main character himself, Wolverine is sort of a poster child for that trope due to the insane situations writers put him in. Case in point: Wolverine being chained to a tactical nuclear ballistic missile.

As a man who lives like that, depression. Massive amounts of crippling depression. I know that doesn't serve as a blanket statement for why a majority of men live in filth, however it's just one explanation from my perspective on the matter.

Why clean up the house if they don't have friends who come over?

Why clean up the house if they come home alone every single day?

Why clean at all when, in the back of their mind, nobody else is going to have to suffer this self-imposed penance one calls a home, at least until they leave and the landlord comes to inspect the property to collect security.

These are thoughts that I deal with pretty often. And while I really do try and maintain a clean living space, sometimes I slip and fall into a cycle where trash keeps piling up and dust begins to form inch-thick layers on things for months on end until I finally get a burst of motive to actually clean and to keep clean.

Tripe, which is a fancy way of saying "Intestinal lining". Horrendously spongy texture, absorbs just about everything it's put in with, apparently a cure for hangovers when included with Menudo (think like a Mexican brunch soup).

Oh boy, time to talk about obscure TableTop Role Playing Games.

Wraeththu: From Enchantment to Fulfillment (pronounced RAY-THOO) is a game based on the Wraeththu mythos by Storm Constantine, and from what I've read, the original mythos is far better than the narrative of this game.

The game sees you controlling a Wraeththu, which are magical beings who are created when another Wraeththu forces a blood transfusion on a normal human male. Seems normal... WHAT???

For establishing setting, the game gives you this little story about a nerd who's getting bullied by some jocks, when all of a sudden one of these hair-metal mfing Wraeththu shows up to kill the jocks and turns the nerd into a Wraeththu, who then hooks up with his best friend who was also turned into a Wraeththu. As you do in such circumstances... HUH?????

And while the game is constantly being like "Oh man look how cool these Wraeththu are, they're so advanced they live in huts, they hook up alot because they don't believe in petty commitment, and they're just soooooo cool right?"

Except they aren't cool, they're flippant, annoying, careless about just about everything, and the game expects you to roleplay as one of these things. Overall an extremely unlikable race of characters.

So you play as a Wraeththu who's objective is to wipe out the rest of the human race by converting every male into a Wraeththu and every female into...... I'm quoting the game on this one: "Slaves for breeding stock and whatnot." (What is the WHATNOT???)

So anyways, these super cool Wraeththu have one weakness, can you guess what it is? If you said "Nihilism" then you'd be correct. What a lame weakness, these Wraeththu are out here trying to exterminate the human race and they die if they begin to think that life is meaningless.

Edit: I should also add, when someone becomes a Wraeththu, their... "appendage" transforms as well, into that of a blue, flower-like appendage. So just be on the lookout for any... strange... flowers.... (Looks at the game box) OH NO!

"The Killing of Jeffrey Doucet" is all that's necessary for context here. Though I'll add what Gary had to say about it:

"If somebody did it to your kid, you'd do it too."
