>You brought up Preacher
I was...60% sure it had a crossover with something DC related by now, but it turns out that was revealed to me in a dream.
>omniscient third-person view
>"vision of God"
Uh, so like...we're considering the God of the original Silent Hill games God as well? Look it's an awe-inspiring manifestation of an acausal force, I don't trust the idiot monkeys who are otherwise mundane normies caught up in it to make accurate theological asssessments about it. Also Kian not correcting Verity doesn't really say that much when he could also just like, not see the point of arguing religion when it's tangible and real.
>Nyarlathotep does that on his own
Nyaralathotep doing that on his own is in fact a reason why the SA sucks.
>Don't blame the actions of others on it
Almost everything is the SA (I am still subscribing to Lovecraft's napkin lore, so Azathoth, Nyarly, the Darkness, and the Nameless Mist still sit outside of the SA's purview). Therefore the SA's structure is inherently reprehensible.
>because he specifically
Which according to you is part of the SA's timeless structure and therefore that failure to access to the boundless truth of all things is an inherent flaw in it. Assuming that it's even as positive an outcome as Carter hopes for. In no story does Carter ever become some kind of enlightened messiah, driving home the cosmic horror themes established in literally every other Lovecraftian story except the one where Yog-Sothoth's son is killed by an angry mob and it's progenitor just farts in response. If the SA is to be equated with Yog-Sothoth, then that right there is it's reaction to it's son's death. A fart.
>if your earnest desire is to just destroy the SA
I can think of one: The SA, lacking change, is inherently incapable of granting that wish. You are simultaneously assuming the SA is immutable and also that it has the means to destroy itself.

[Rick and Morty redux]

>Previously: https://archive.4plebs.org/tg/thread/95884526/#95888768

After 8 seasons of apocalypse-induced cynicism, life or death struggles and traumatic experiences, Rick and Morty found themselves back where they started: Stealing generic fucking "space coal" energy crystals from a goddamn ship full of cryostasis'd not!Vulcans. There was just one problem. Apparently the lock technology was too advanced for Rick to deal with so what could've been an altercation resulted in Morty threatening to call me to come solve the problem, Rick screaming that they couldn't just use me to handwave every problem in the series, and me showing up through a portal right before Rick and Morty devolved into another fucking petty brawl.

"Wow. Your universe is digging at the absolute bottom of the barrel for pop culture references" I commented.

"W-what, Vulcans?" asked Morty. "Uh, technically Star Trek is still making new stuff so i-it's topical! This isn't a culture war thing isn't it?"

"Not even the pseudo-Vulcans, Morty. I'm talking about Curious George. There's a skeleton of a Curious George expy in that one pod, and a Man In The Yellow Hat expy in that other pod" I told him.

Morty blink. "Jesus christ, yeah that is...Rick, do people even remember Curious George?"

"Bitch, who asked?" snarled Rick. "Well, Morty actually" I pointed out. "Morty, stop asking!" yelled Rick, and in the time it took Morty to come up to a retort to that I simply rendered the advanced spaceship vault translucent with my Primordial gaze, revealing all the space coal having been stolen.

...

"Huh" said Rick. "Well, that's uh. That's very. Well. Fuck, way to throw away 15 minutes of an entire episode"

"It's something you could've found out if you'd just portaled into the vault instead of try to pick the lock" I said.
