@starsh_ck That’s just it man… I don’t even have to close my eyes to imagine your girlfriend rotating in a cube in my mind. She’s already there, always there, floating just at the edge of my vision. She’s beautiful dude.

"if it's a mammal then it's not an obscure animal" yeah well tell me what is a zokor, a yapok, a gerenuk, a saola, a dorcopsis, a mulgara, a pacarana, a tuco-tuco, an agouti, a falanoka, and an oyan

@empyrealviolet I mean I’d agree but that would mean it could equally be either twin, and Morgott’s “Veiled Monarch” title totally relies on his isolation from birth. If it is Marika’s, it must 100% be Mohg. She’s got both braids pre-shattering, it could be any hornsent; who do look like that.

@Sherburt0n Kid has horns and is following around Marika in the scene. Not really a leap in logic to assume that this is one of her Omen kids. So it's either him or Mohg, and those horns look more similar to Morgott's.

I am Morgott's strongest soldier so you are playing a very dangerous game right now Alex Garland

@Eldritchaphilia Occurs to me that “without the body” could technically mean that he is constrained from becoming as large as the “normal” omen; because he was sealed in a jarlike armor. whole-body-foot-binding.

@Sherburt0n Omen helm desc: Worn by the Dung Eater, their form is a vision of the landscape of his mind, and of his appearance as he wished to see it. The heart of an omen without the body to match; could there be any crueler existence? What does it matter, then, if the curse claims at all?

this made me realize how funny it is they let him keep his armor on to be hanged

@JehoshaphatRsch get off my feed you fucking freak

A LANDMARK IN SHORT-SELLING TRANSPARENCY FROM YOUR FRIENDS AT TECHTRONIC AND QUINN EMANUEL If you are someone who finds yourself frustrated by the common activist short seller practice of quoting former employees but not identifying them by name, we have great news. Today, in a watershed moment for our industry, we are making recordings of interviews for our June 2023 Techtronic Industries short report available to the public on our website’s Litigation section. To the best of our knowledge, no short seller has ever done this. That's because the chance to do so in an ethical way is virtually never available. But by suing us, Techtronic has ironically given us a wonderful opportunity to open the kimono to all consumers of short-selling research (and earn a little credibility for ourselves while doing it). Normally, the short seller who speaks to former employees cannot identify those sources publicly without their explicit permission, let alone share his recordings with the world. Even if a source does not explicitly ask to be kept anonymous, common courtesy says that when someone tells you “the CEO likes to beat up on the auditors,” that someone probably doesn’t want their name plastered all over the internet next to that quote. So, while we quote sources extensively all the time, we can’t (or won’t) use their names, even though it makes us appear less credible than if we did. So our readers have thus far had two choices when seeing these quotes in our work: “just trust us,” or ignore some of the most illuminating and corroborating parts of our research. But there is now a solution to this glaring credibility issue. It’s called “Get sued for defamation.” Techtronic has graciously provided this solution. In a defamation lawsuit against us, Techtronic's lawyers demanded that we identify our quoted sources and turn over our recordings of our calls with them. We refused, waging a serious legal fight based on the assertion of “journalist’s privilege,” but the Court sided with Techtronic on that one. At that point we had no choice but to break confidentiality. (Techtronic went through our recordings and transcripts with a fine-toothed comb, but ultimately found nothing useful to their case, so they bastardized our quotations to try and turn them into something disingenuous. We had a field day with this at the summary judgment hearing, in which we played the actual audio for the judge and let her decide. The transcript of that hearing is public too, by the way – see snippets below.) Thanks to Techtronic and their lawyers, the names of these sources - as well as their word-for-word testimony - are now in the public domain, on the Court’s docket with a public trial approaching. We tried to protect these people's anonymity. We spent time and money to do so – I, Vic, spent mine - but sadly, we failed. Which means there’s no more anonymity to protect. Which means we finally can show – ethically - our readers that when we quote sources we quote them accurately, making only cosmetic or clarifying edits (when sources ramble in the middle of an otherwise insightful sentence, you have to cut stuff, but without changing the meaning). We could never have been this transparent before now. Visit the Litigation section of our website, have a listen to the recordings, and see why ALL short sellers now owe a heartfelt “THANK YOU!” to Techtronic and its lawyers at Quinn Emanuel.

people’s memories are so bad they can’t even remember the time before the trans culture war. literally no one cared. republicans didnt care. it wasn’t a concern until they had to make something up to make you angry and stupid. we have hard proof that it’s a hoax but no one cares

@TheGhoulCity been ten years I can wait six more. way things are going I bet chris and todd are legally married by 2030.

@Invinium There’s more to all this but I do think “hornsent” in the lands between are all omen now, with the ones surviving in the land of shadow being exceptionally old, or maybe even in a different time.

@Invinium I don’t think this is morgott but my understanding is that the hornsent’s horns are catalysts for their religious magic, and once they can’t worship the horns get larger and that energy poisons their body too. Mohg bloodlets to fix it, Morgott channels it into his sword.

I'll refrain from heavy criticism because I lack the context, but if this is meant to be morgott, then he looks way too human, or I guess the omen curse disfigures you more in age? Either the production design is poor or we misunderstood the omen curse this whole time.

@Schaflenteusse @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia Occurs to me that Ensha and Alberich both have red hues as well, and are in the roundtable so should be tarnished. What if a similar scenario befell them? Thorn magic and the Royal Remains set are, I think, representative of the Scadutree and Sun realm.

@Sherburt0n @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia Interesting point, but again, how would a tarnished be awoken in the lands of shadow? All of the people we met there are either inhabitants (Hornsent) or active seekers that enter into the land of shadow (a land that is banished/sealed away btw) it would not really make sense

so random question but does any1 know why tf all my desktop icons have just randomly gotten newvegas'd

@Helldivers_NOW Fungal Strain takes over the brains of divers past who were embedded in the ground for commando missions and left behind. Bugborgs. 1: We know the fungus is symbiotic 2: We don’t know if it’s the bugs or the spores doing the brainwork moving planets 3: The April Fools Incident

Ah yes Termicide 2.0 What are we gonna mutate this time? A hive queen?

@Schaflenteusse @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia Okay so following the line, it’d have to be at the same “time” that all the tarnished would have been traveling beyond the fog to die honorably and be reborn. BUT He would be doing the opposite, dying in the Lands Between to be Reborn in Lands Shadow. THATS THE LEYNDELL HANGING

@Schaflenteusse @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia hang on. Okay by my logic: If THE tarnished can’t be a hornsent because their race was sealed away in tLoS, then another tarnished could be hornsent if they awoke in the lands shadow instead of the lands between. If they crossed back to LB, they might have a red “invader” aura?

@Sherburt0n @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia Not all hornsent are omens, but all omens are hornsent, my friend.

@Schaflenteusse @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia exactly

@Schaflenteusse @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia I think you might be conflating omen and hornsent. Morgott isn’t a “hornsent” lmao.

@Sherburt0n @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia My friend, did you not read the Omen's Helm item description? "The heart of an omen without the body to match" Is this not literally stating that Dung Eater is not an omen/hornsent?

@Schaflenteusse @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia No Sir; it Would actually appear based on reading that whole page and everything I know, that the only reason the player can’t “make a hornsent” is because they’re all sealed away. If I’m wrong, I’m still not going to tolerate “Transracial Dungeater Theory” anymore.

@Sherburt0n @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia I think you just confirmed your own answer you have been seeking: the hornsent can not be a Tarnished. And Dung Eater is a Tarnished like us, so...?

@rebeccaartst @Schaflenteusse @Eldritchaphilia play the game again. I’m serious. this is crazy.

@Sherburt0n @Schaflenteusse @Eldritchaphilia And he isnt in the lands between, the hornsent were victim from a genocide and their land was sealed away, tracking everything back, the dung eater couldnt POSSIBLY be a hornsent, because even the model for the hornsent and the potentates have horns, they use the mask with horns

@rebeccaartst @Schaflenteusse @Eldritchaphilia Okay. You just need to understand that, because I’ve played the game, and watched Zullie’s entire catalogue, I know Concretely That Dung Eater’s Model’s Hastily Created Face Is Not Canon. I actually don’t care about the hornsent thing at all.

@Sherburt0n @Schaflenteusse @Eldritchaphilia All of the game has clues, not every clue is on your face, they know their community and how they will scather for clues everywhere, even in the games files, they made the game for the community, thats how it works

@Schaflenteusse @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia The Player’s tarnished can be several races; of which hornsent is obviously not one because they do not exist in the lands between. This is despite THE HORNSENT, the npc, having exactly the same proportions and body as we do. sorry, the logic just does not track.

@Sherburt0n @rebeccaartst @Eldritchaphilia Sorry for butting in again in this argument, but I think the fact that the Dung Eater is a human is pretty much confirmed from the info that he is a Tarnished, like us. And if you need further confirmation, you can read the lore from the Omen Helm item #lore" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Dung+Eater#lore
