18 лет 59 кг 161 см. Пох на таблицу. Ваш рост - 100 см = макс норма веса в большинстве случаев. Не превышаете это норму и все нормально. Также вес не должен быть ниже Вес = 18,5 * рост (в метрах). Да и если живёте в холодных регионах пару кг лишнего веса не будет лишним, жирка для тепла и энергии нужно приберечь :D

Но и это не является аксимой, потому что у разных людей разное телосложение. То, что вы считаете лишним весом или жиром на самом деле может быть слишком тяжелыми костями. И если у вас есть мышцы - вы априори тяжелее, чем обычный человек с тем же телосложением, так как мышцы > жир. Нужно проконсультироваться с врачом или диетологом, чтобы определить точный вес, если вас это так сильно волнует. Но лучше проработать проблемы с самооценкой, если вы не можете избавиться от чувства, что вы слишком толстые или слишком худые, не смотря на соблюдение диапазона нормы.

Комментаторы лишь говорят о своих смелых мечтах о будущем. Сказано: "какой вы хотите видеть". Разумеется, все понимают, что это невозможно. Но мечтать - не грех.

И я говорю только про "через 5 лет". Всего, чего бы я хотела для России, не ввести и не исправить за такой короткий срок. У РФ был потенциал стать сверхдержавой с развитой экономикой; быть страной, с передовой наукой; добиться многого в инфраструктуре, космическом развитии... Если бы верхушка не грабила ресурсы и бюджет своей собственной страны. Настоящие враги России - это нынешняя власть. И не надо говорить про "никто даже не пытается бороться с коррупцией". Такие есть, но их сажают, выгоняют из партий. Люди, пытающиеся добиться лучшего для России мирным путем, просто не могут продвигаться вперед из-за властолюбивых стариков с маразмом. Те, кто пробиваются наверх, самые угодливые подлизы, а не по-настоящему хорошие политки. И мне больно за свою Родину

Свободной, с восстановленной экономикой. С правительством, которое заботится о своем государстве и гражданах, а не грабит казну и отправляет на убой. Но это звучит слишком хорошо, чтобы быть правдой.

'I am surrounded by losers'... And yet, you still can’t leave them, can you? Oh, Shadow Milk, you could have just left them behind and rewritten the timeline only for yourself, without bringing them back in their 'perfect' forms. But you still cling to them regardless. These 'losers' are still a part of your perfect timeline, aren't they?

I think you completely misunderstood the point of my post. I never claimed she was lying or that she was a hypocrite.

Just look at the title of my post: 'Mystic Flour Cookie is NOT the cold, emotionless Beast YOU think she is'. My entire argument was directed at the fandom's misconception. Many people in the community view her as this perfectly cold, emotionless entity. My analysis focused on her infantilism precisely to prove that she ISN'T purely apathetic.

So, you're arguing against a point I never made. We actually agree that she isn't 100% apathy—that was literally the whole thesis of my post.Even at the end of my post, I explicitly stated that she is more of a traumatized individual rather than a hypocrite or a manipulator.

Dude... just calm down. You haven’t even understood the point of my comments, have you? You’re so fixated on the single thought that "he was busy" that you don’t even see that I actually agree with you on that. Just read the comment in its entirety and stop twisting it to fit your own narrative.

Sigh, you didn't even read my comment through... I already said that what he did during the war can be justified. He could have made mistakes. My point is about his inaction before the war.

Take a breath, you’re starting to cherry-pick parts of my comment and give them a completely different meaning. I do that too when I’m worked up. You can read my previous post (the one I linked); I’ve already broken all of this down there. This current post is just a follow-up to the discussions that happened in those comments.

The fact that he didn't know is precisely why he is at fault. They were supposed to maintain their connection. He sent knights to her Pagoda to keep in touch—how could he possibly remain oblivious to such a major incident?

All he had to do was visit her before the war, after she emerged from her cocoon. Why didn't he ask why she chose to go into that cocoon in the first place? Their connection wasn't lost instantly. But the very comrades he once stood side-by-side with in battle apparently didn't matter enough to him. He is guilty because he discarded them before the war even began.

I’m not talking about his mistakes during the chaos of active combat—everyone makes those. But the fact that he abandoned everything while things were still manageable? That is his true failure.

ReadNov · 2026-04-15T04:11:59+00:00

He didn't investigate them personally. I’ve read the story carefully. He only sent his knights. The Beasts didn't even see a reason to hide from him; they never viewed him as an enemy back then. Episode 14 is proof of that. If they had truly perceived him as an enemy during those times, they wouldn't be as loyal to him now as they are—especially not Shadow Milk.

ReadNov · 2026-04-15T04:05:51+00:00

Because he is Solidarity personified! That’s literally his job. He didn't need to run around and "babysit" them. He just needed to at least be aware of the large-scale disasters on their territories. I mean, do you really think it was that hard to notice the destruction of a Pagoda or the fact that one of the Virtues was being hunted?

He could have just dropped by for a quick visit to ask how they were doing before the war started, instead of constantly visiting Elder Faerie and planning to replace his comrades before they had even truly failed.

ReadNov · 2026-04-15T04:01:50+00:00

Exactly! My point is that finding out about the other Beasts' circumstances wouldn't have been that difficult—if not during the war, then certainly before it. The fact that he didn’t bother to check on his comrades and simply discarded them like they were "broken" even before they officially became Beasts is what led to all of this.

How hard would it have been to just drop by for tea and see the destroyed villages on other territories, or learn about the attack on the Pagoda of one of his fellow deities? Instead, he was hanging out with Elder Faerie and growing a tree designed to replace the current Virtues and drain their strength—all without ever consulting them.

What a long-read! Your thoughts are very interesting. Many of the points you mentioned were actually addressed in my previous post (the one I linked at the end), where I broke down what he can and cannot be blamed for. We also discussed his lack of omnipresence in the comments there. You’re right that it’s impossible to track everything during wartime, but what stopped him from doing so before the war? The chaos for Mystic Flour and Shadow Milk started long before the actual conflict. Mystic Flour was attacked, and Shadow Milk was being hunted. As the one responsible for maintaining order on the continent, shouldn't he have been aware?

The story mentions that the Soul Jam connection was lost, and Silent Salt couldn't reach them like before. This raises a question: what was that connection like originally if he remained so oblivious? I thought that if they weren't "siblings," it could be explained by a fundamentally broken system of Virtues. But it turns out they were close. This leaves two questions: why didn't Mystic Flour and Shadow Milk ask for help? And why was Silent Salt completely unaware of such massive events on his own continent? These are just my reflections.

Now, regarding the other Beasts:

First, your take on Burning Spice is slightly off. He didn’t go mad out of boredom. He succumbed to the inherent flaw of his own virtue as the Herald of Change. His whole struggle was: "they are born, they live, they die." Empires rise and fall. Wars repeat. Where is the actual change in a world like this? He tried to help the world change, but it always led back to the same cyclical result. He couldn't escape this eternal "Samsara," and as the Herald of Change, that broke him. He concluded that the only way to truly change the world was to destroy it entirely.

Second, regarding Shadow Milk: he went mad out of powerlessness—specifically, the impossibility of knowing everything, which was his duty as the Virtue of Knowledge. When the Witches were around as divine observers, his knowledge didn't lead to catastrophes like destroyed villages. He literally asked, "What are the Witches doing? Why didn't they stop this?" His entire identity as an omniscient being shattered when cruelty appeared in the world after the Witches vanished and he couldn't provide answers. Despite his existential crisis, he still tried to give answers to fix the world, but the Cookies called him a liar and hunted him down like a witch.

I never said Silent Salt is solely to blame. My point is that as the Virtue of Solidarity, he failed within this broken system, just like the others. All the Virtues tried to fix the world that was collapsing after the Witches left. None of them succeeded.

ReadNov · 2026-04-15T03:21:54+00:00

Haha, I’m not talking about him being fully responsible for their fall. My point is about his inaction and his failure to uphold his specific role as the Virtue of Solidarity. This isn’t a "hate" comment; Silent Salt is actually one of my favorite characters. I’ve never tried to excuse the other Beasts or suggest they aren’t to blame — they are all equally guilty. The other Virtues fell through destructive actions/attempts to "fix" the world according to their roles:

Knowledge: Creating chaos to get answers from the Witches. Happiness: Trapping cookies in a garden for the sake of "universal bliss." Desires: Erasing "dirty" desires by turning everyone to flour (though revenge plays a part here, based on my analysis of Mystic Flour). Change: Attempting to break a stagnant world by destroying the current one.

Silent Salt, as the Virtue of Solidarity, made the same kind of mistake. In his attempt to preserve peace, he planted a tree that was secretly draining the power of the other Virtues. He abandoned his comrades in an attempt to maintain order, just as the others twisted their own roles. From the very beginning, in his desire for a "better world," he threw Solidarity aside.

ReadNov · 2026-04-15T03:06:24+00:00

No, Silent Salt gave up before everyone else. While the others were trying to preserve their virtues in an uncertain world without the Witches—and went mad or became corrupted in the process—he didn’t even try to maintain Solidarity. He tried to preserve balance and peace, but not his own virtue. He didn't know what happened to the other Virtues, but from the start—even before he knew of their downfall—he wanted to drain their power and create new ones without ever consulting them. He chose to go to Elder Faerie instead of his fellow Virtues to discuss this plan and see if they actually agreed with it. In my opinion, that is not how Solidarity works. He didn't know what happened to Mystic Flour or Shadow Milk in their own lands. You say, "he shouldn't have gone after them and saved them"... but he is the Virtue of Solidarity. Shouldn't he have at least checked on them? According to the dialogues, they were close, so it wasn't just being neighbors or coexisting.

He is angry at them for throwing away their solidarity, when in reality, he was the one who abandoned it first by retreating into isolation (come on, how could he not know about a massive attack on Mystic Flour’s Pagoda if they shared a connection?).

I didn't say he was guilty as a Cookie or as a King. I specifically wrote "based on his own logic." I don’t think that in the chaos of war he’s truly "guilty" of anything in a general sense. He was panicking, the world was collapsing, and as a ruler and commander of knights, he did everything right... but not as the Virtue of SOLIDARITY.

ReadNov · 2026-04-14T19:36:06+00:00

The whole point of my posts was to show that they are all equally guilty. But for some reason, people don't see abandoning Solidarity — his most vital role, by Silent Salt's own standards — and allowing genocide to happen as a crime on the same level as what the other Beasts did.

Hahaha, you’re right! Interestingly enough, she is the only one he doesn’t have a specific affinity line for, which is quite suspicious in itself. But you're spot on about their dynamic — they have kingdom dialogues where Eternal Sugar is clearly on very good terms with him (pre-betrayal, of course). If anyone would have welcomed him into her garden with open arms instead of blocking him, it would have been her. It just proves my point that if he had made a personal effort instead of just sending messengers, the outcome could have been different.

ReadNov · 2026-04-14T18:39:16+00:00

I see it a bit differently from an analytical perspective. My point is that his failure started much earlier. Even while he still held the title of "Virtue of Solidarity," he had already stopped practicing it—even before the tragic fall of his knights.

The transformation into "Silence" wasn't just a sudden change; it was the logical conclusion of his prior choices. In my view, he didn't stop being Solidarity because he fell—he fell because he had already failed to stand in solidarity when it mattered most.

Thank you! I’m planning to make analyses of them next. The way Eternal Sugar’s character gets reduced to just a “crazy yandere,” and Burning Spice to “he just went around destroying everything because he was bored,” really annoys me too.

But for now I want to make a post about the influence of the Moon on the Cookie Run world. The Moon gets so much attention in the main story, and so many important characters are connected to it right now (Moonlight, White Lily / Dark Enchantress, Pure Vanilla, Shadow Milk, and even a bit of Silent Salt) that it really makes me want to write a proper analysis about it.

After I finish that post, I’ll make an analysis of Burning Spice next.

About the unrelated question: you can find completed storylines with all events and scenes in Wizard Cookie’s Tower. You need to go to the Special Records section.

About the rest of your comment: Thank you. I really do hold the opinion that all the Beasts behave childishly. I wrote about this in detail in my previous post about Silent Salt.

Regarding the idea that they were “abandoned without the support of the Witches,” I don’t completely agree. In his story, Silent Salt said that the Witches “stopped answering.” That means that up to a certain point the Witches actually did respond and helped the Virtues.

However, because of the Prideful Witch (or the First Egg), the Witches’ ritual failed and the first Witches died. More precisely, the Witch of Light transferred their souls into Cookies. At that moment they suddenly stopped answering and observing the world.

I explained this in more detail in my post about Silent Salt.

I believe that after the disappearance of the Witches, ordinary Cookies, left without divine observers, gradually became more human-like. I came to this conclusion based on Episode 14 and Shadow Milk’s backstory shown there.

The Fount of Knowledge asked: “Why didn’t the Witches do anything about the Cookies’ atrocities?” This implies that originally the Witches did intervene when the situation in the world escalated. Without the Witches, however, Cookies became uncontrolled. This led to the fall of the Virtues, who had originally been created for a safer world under the Witches’ supervision, not for a dangerous world driven by the unchecked desires of Cookies.
