    When you’re struggling to make ends meet paycheck to paycheck, the unfathomable Eldritch horror no longer seems very threatening.

      Yeah… I’m not exactly worried about some random demon summoning itself in the middle of my bedroom. That’s whatever. At least something new and interesting to spice it up. I am worried about the constant flip flop of paying for bills or medication or being unable to do anything in life because I can barely afford rent.

      Bring it on demon daddy.

      I mean, the least the horror could do is help out some, then it can get back to the whole “I will murder your existence for all eternity in dimensions not even possible.” thing, y’know? Maybe erase a debt collections agency, delete some computer records? Maybe contribute to the cause, there, horror.
