That's exactly what the Weeping Angels (or SCP-173) would want!

Looking more and more like the thing from Pan's Labyrinth every day...

I'm a marine biologist. It's obvious he's moulting.
Its his radical final moult, metamorphosing from an aquatic nymph to a winged adult

[-] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 9 points 1 year ago

Is that why he must consume the souls of all the children? For energy for the metamorphosis?

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

No, that's silly.
He consumes souls to power the deep machines in the darkness.

[-] DharmaCurious@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago

Ah, I see. And who are you, who are so wise in the ways of science?

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I'm just a humble marine biologist.
The sea was angry that day, my friends!

He has not yet attained his final formlessness.

[-] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I always thought he looked like a half filled balloon

[-] 2scoops@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago

I like to imagine that during these freezes, he’s actually having out of body experiences wherein he visits Hell, and sees the fiery fate and torments that awaits him when finally slips this mortal coil.

It's just his handler touching base.

Comunicating with Biden :)

His entire team of staffers should be convicted on elder abuse.

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Plus most of the other stafers on the Hill and White House should be convicted on elder abuse too.

The rest should probably be convicted on other charges

For a second I thought The Onion had become an actual news site.

[-] Catradora_Stalinism@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

I feel like it is in its own way

[-] ElBarto@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

It might as well be, reality is doing a better job at it lately.

This article is written like an episode of Nightvale.

[-] HotsauceHurricane@lemmy.one 11 points 1 year ago

This is a top tier onion article. Up there with the hyperbolic chamber !

[-] marco@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

He's like an old, cold Medusa.
