Physarum viride by Ehab Edward
Wanted to try analyzing Lyle in depth/just my general thoughts and opinions about him. all under cut š
Alright. I want to preface this by saying that I am not justifying anything unethical that Lyle has done by any means- moreso I am trying to figure out a reasoning as to why he is the way that he is. Nor am I trying to āwoobifyā him or whatever, I just think heās genuinely an interesting character Iād like to dissect. Morally greyish. I also apologize if it seems I am grasping at straws at some points, hopefully Iāll be making good enough reasoning for my thoughts.
First off, I believe Lyle has Bipolar Mood Disorder. It seems heās been suffering through a manic episode during the events of the game and even beforehand. He talks of a project he has been working on in his dark room, and while its clear these are just photographs of Sam (for the most part), Lyle could still consider this an actual project; likely something heās obsessing over because of a drawn-out manic episode. Because he has an interest in photography, he likely reverts to similar activities during these episodes.
His chronic obsession with Sam could also explain this. Itās not uncommon for people with Bipolar Mood Disorder to become obsessed with another person, and yāknow, being turned into a giant mechanical camera spider probably isnāt helping much. Itās clear heās ashamed of his new form (based on his reaction when you look at him), and he knows Sam probably wouldnāt relish in his appearance either, which only worsens the obsession.
Obviously Lyle has a crush on Sam. I⦠donāt need to explain that. Lol. Clearly Lyle isnāt treating this crush the same as the average person would, though, and I believe this is because he literally doesnāt know how else to. Bipolar heavily influences on oneās relationships with other people, and assuming heās not exactly an extroverted individual (anxiety meds? being a weird nerd?), he tends to be ācreepyā towards Sam with the photography and all. Iām lenient on calling him creepy because I donāt think he fully understands what heās doing is bad, nor do I think being ācreepyā is necessarily intentional. Itās just a combination of disordered thinking, romantic obsession, and emotional irregularities.
I understand he stole Samās spare key. Again, Im not trying to justify it, itās.. not good at all, but I donāt think thereās actually any proof heās used it before? So I cant really speak on that topic too much. Maybe he took it in a frenzy and was too anxious to return it. I dunno š¤·āāļø. Its a little too far even for him, I mean, he asks Sam for consent to kiss. Whatever you wish to believe, I suppose.
In general I think some therapy and mood stabilizers would help him plenty. My boy just needs some help regulating his emotions is all⦠thanks for listening to my rambling. I love him a lot!
unknown forces compelled me to draw this

I would normally never do this and I normally avoid all political posting, but the FDA has had to stop a lot of food testing due to staff cuts currently planned at least until September 30th.
This is very dangerous for certain foods and if you live in the United States, I highly recommend that you keep track of this list: https://www.fda.gov/food/food-safety-modernization-act-fsma/food-traceability-list
That is a (not fully comprehensive but useful) list of the high-risk foods for contamination and sickness that could result in serious harm or death. The broad strokes are cheeses, but especially soft cheeses, raw/fresh vegetables, pre-sliced fruit packages, ready to eat salads, chicken eggs, milk (bird flu), anything fermented like melons, and pet food, among others.
This is likely not a comprehensive list, so be sure to look things up yourself as well.
If you buy vegetables and plan to eat them, it is best to cook them to a safe temperature and wash their outsides well with water and light scrubbing instead of eating them raw. Treat it like chicken in that regard.
Make sure that the individual foods that you buy often are safe to eat or at risk, and adjust accordingly. This is a fundamental necessity that everyone here will need to follow. Testing is reduced or gone, and reporting on outbreaks will also likely be reduced or banned outright as well.
All you can do is stay safe, use your masks in public again, and make sure that you are clean as well as your food.
Attached below are more tips for vegetables, meat safety should be the same, just be more vigilant.
I love you all and don't want any of you hurt. Let's all support each other, thank you.
