There is a knock at the door to Karrie's office adjoining the mechbay.

It is Hannah with Archaea in tow.

“Hold on just a sec! I’ll be right with you!” comes her voice from behind the door. There is the sound of metal clattering against metal for a few seconds before Karrie bursts from her office, already covered in grease.

“Oh! H-hi Hannah!” she says. “And Archaea, n-nice to see you both!”

MGSV: Mid Outbreak Observations

I took the chance to visit Mother Base after I kept dying in Metallic Archaea, so I am waiting on another weapon to develop. In being there, I have noticed some things happening that I had never noticed before. 

Medical and Quarantine Platform staff are in full masks.

You cannot increase the morale of the Medical and Quarantine Platform staff. You can increase the morale of everyone else as usual-but no matter what you do for the others, you cannot. Nothing happens.

There’s this conversation from the Quarantine Platform about the outbreak’s spread and how worried the ones directly involved are.

When Venom is in the chopper coming back, he gets a time. Mine shown was 01:01am. Outside of certain cut scenes, this doesn’t happen unless it’s 06:00am, or 00:00

When you get off the chopper on the Command Platform, your staff salute and walk away, rather than waiting for you to approach them.

So yeah! They aren’t huge changes but they’re little details that I appreciate them having put in. And are more interesting than I anticipated.

HOLD ON...HOLD ON....remember how i brought up a cetain type of amphipod that actually metabolizes aluminum and makes itself an armor with it and other metals and i was all saying "ahahahahh that should be higgs-amelie such a little amphipod, they live at extreme depths after all and if he was stuck in the seam surviving off the little there is, that's a very higgs-like metaphor then"

but then,

metallic archaea

Periodic Table Championship: Round 4, Day 1, Hydrogen vs. Tungsten

Match 1 of 8 from round 4 starts us of with nonmetallic hydrogen against the transition metal tungsten.

Fun facts:

Hydrogen's unique nature, and the fact that it, unlike the other elements, doesn't belong to any specific group or period of the periodic table, arises due to the fact that it is the only element without at least one neutron, resulting in unique properties.

Tungsten is the heaviest known element to be used in biological reactions, found in a few species of bacteria and archaea where it is used by enzymes, though it can be toxic to other forms of life.

I ALSO love summer wars and I made my friends watch it once and let me tell you, they were not as on board with the 'actually fuck you in particular' satellite turn as I was

there are legit like 10 year old posts on here of me and @metallic-archaea flipping our absolute lids about Summer Wars and liveblogging it when they aired it and a few other movies on Toonami. "KOI KOI, MOTHERFUCKERS" is still something I want to yell when I play any card/tile game, not just Hanafuda

GUILT is a fast-acting, deadly strain of diseases and a major threat. However, there is another set of diseases that also poses a significant threat. This disease strain is named Stigma, and it consists of a set of six diseases: Cheir, Soma, Ops, Onyx, Brachia, and Cardia.

Although Stigma strains appear to follow some common rules of pathogens, they form their own category of unique pathogen known as culuriophiles due to their ability to feed off of and thrive in the mineral culurium. Without culurium, the virus cannot grow or thrive. This is why persons who had been given artificial blood donations were more likely to contract Stigma, as the artificial heme was created using culurium. Although it is unsure what sort of properties allow the virus to spread in culurium, it is one of its main transmission forms. The disease follows very little of the proper structures of most viruses and it is hypothesized it is in fact some form of Archaebacteria. If this theory is proven correct it would call the story of Markus Vaughn's "accidental" creation of the pathogen into question, as archaea cannot be manipulated easily due to their lack of a nucleus as well as the fact that “immunogenic properties of archaea as part of the human microbiota is generally rare”. (Schmitz et al) To summarize GUILT, a Gangliated Utrophin Immuno-Latency Toxin (GUILT) is a set of dormant toxin-like artificial diseases that attack the immune system. Each strain most likely triggers a cytokine storm which causes the body to attack itself. This explains why the healthiest patients die the fastest due to their immune systems being strong enough to tear the body to shreds. Essentially, the virus causes the body's immune system to attack itself, which would explain why GUILT hits hardest on people who are in the best of health. The stronger your immune system is the more damage it can do to itself. Stigma strains were created by accident using the research of Concordia researcher Markus Vaughn. As they mainly feed on the metal culurium, their transmission is somewhat limited and can be halted by simply starving the disease of its food source. GUILT, however, has no such limitations and its spread is only halted by the complete eradication of all virus colonies. It was specifically created to act as a bioweapon and used in biological terrorism, while Stigma was only used in biological attacks after its accidental creation and subsequent discovery by the terrorist organization Parnassus. GUILT and Stigma are both named after foreign language terms, GUILT being named after the Greek days of the week and Gnostic terms such as the neo-GUILT strains Nous "The Mind", Bythos "The Depth", Sige "The Silence" and Aletheia "The Truth". Stigma strains are named after the body parts they affect, such as Cardia “Heart” and Soma “Body”. While GUILT and Stigma are both deadly diseases in their own right, there are some differences in the two diseases that alter how they would need to be treated. For example, because of Stigma’s reliance on the mineral culurium, treatments of synthetic blood would only worsen the patient’s condition. This is because giving the virus more culurium to feed on would only cause its rapid spread. GUILT, however, does not feed on any sort of metals, and therefore synthetic blood can be given. , GUILT is also specifically designed to target surgeons as well as patients and has many self-destructive behaviors, quick work must be done to avoid the death of the patient being operated on. In conclusion, even though there are many differences between the two diseases, from the methods of transmission, differences in lethality, and in cellular composition, they are both large risks. The fight against them is both a difficult and long one and it has only just begun.

The Bacteria That Revolutionized the World

There were no eyes to see it, but the sun shone more dimly in the sky, casting its languid rays on the ground below. A thick methane atmosphere enshrouded the planet. The sea gleamed a metallic green, and where barren rock touched the water, minerals oozed out. Estuaries, creeks, and mud flats teemed with microscopic life—single-celled bacteria and archaea. This wasn’t life at its emergence on…

Human colonic and endosymbiotic archaeal growth consequent to stress, internet fields, low level EMF, low dietary fibre intake, antibiotic use and non-antibiotic drug use producing methanogenesis is the principal cause of global warming. The widespread use of antibiotic and non-antibiotic drugs kills of the colonic microflora and replaces it with archaea resistant to antibiotic and non-antibiotic drugs. The low intake of dietary fibre promotes colonic archaeal and endosymbiotic archaeal growth. Stress produces catecholamine induced increased in colonic and endosymbiotic archaeal growth and breaching of the gut-blood barrier. Most of the drugs used in medicine affect mitochondrial function. The bactericidal antibiotics like aminoglycosides, macrolides and linezolid antibiotics can affect mitochondrial biogenesis and interfere with mitochondrial DNA. Other drugs like antipsychotics, anti-depressants, anti-cancer drugs and anti-diabetic drugs can produce mitochondrial dysfunction. Therefore the drugs used in medicine can lead on to neurodegeneration, autoimmune disease, cancer, psychiatric illness and diabetes mellitus. Modern medicine can be considered as failed medicine. A low fibre diet alters the gut microbiome in the colon with more of archaeal growth. The archaea develop protective mechanism of antibiotic resistance and dominates the colonic microflora. The colonic archaea by natural selection and DNA/gene exchanges with other colonic and endosymbiotic organism transfer the genes for antibiotic resistance to other colonic flora. This forms the basis for the generation of superbugs resistant to all antibiotics. The same mechanisms happen when populations are treated with antibiotics and other drugs like anti-hypertensives, anti-psychotics and analgesics. They kill the colonic bacterial flora and the extremophilic archaea dominates the colonic microbiome with acquired protective mechanisms for antibiotic resistance. These archaeal antibiotic resistance genes are transferred by gene and plasmid DNA exchange with remnant colonic and endosymbiotic microorganism generating superbugs. Thus antibiotic and other non-antibiotic drugs promote colonic archaeal growth and endosymbiosis producing neanderthalisation of the species and generation of superbugs which kills of the homo sapien species. The neanderthalised species generated superbugs and emerging viruses kills of the homo sapien species which are sensitive to the superbugs and emerging viruses and do not have resistance to it. Thus the modern armamentarium of antibiotics, anti-psychotics, analgesics, anti-hypertensives and anti-diabetic drugs promote colonic and endosymbiotic archaeal growth development of superbugs, neanderthalisation of species and induction of civilizational disease. Thus the drugs used to treat infections and human disease tend to produce superbugs, emerging virus infection and civilizational diseases- cancer, autoimmune disease, metabolic syndrome x, neurodegeneration, schizophrenia and autism. Thus the drug armamentarium of antibiotics and non-antibiotic drugs used to treat human infections and diseases increases colonic and endosymbiotic archaeal growth, neanderthalises the species, generates superbugs and leads to increased incidence of civilizational disease. Ayurvedic treatment consist of using various bhasmas which are organo-metallic compounds having an anti-oxidant function stimulating mitochondrial function. The Ayurvedic panchakarma consists of basti which includes various enemas using oil and herbal preparations which can modulate the gut microflora producing more of gut butyrate which enhances mitochondrial function. Cow dung and cow’s urine contains lots of anti-oxidants derived from grasses and plants improving mitochondrial function. Thus the Ayurvedic treatment protocols containing bhasmas, basti and panchagavya improves mitochondrial function. Ayurvedic medicine is basically mitochondrial medicine as opposed to modern medicine which acts by inhibiting mitochondrial function leading on to various systemic diseases.

Ok legitimately why does Sahelanthropus have parasite abilities and how does that work? Do they have tanks filled with nutrient fluid inside the robot for the parasites or something? How is Sahelanthropus immune to the metallic archaea (some sort of coating)? And how the hell after it got stolen did Cipher manage to keep the existence of metal gears on the down-low?

bacterium

Bacteria (; singular: bacterium) constitute a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms. Typically a few micrometres in length, bacteria have a number of shapes, ranging from spheres to rods and spirals. Bacteria were among the first life forms to appear on Earth, and are present in most of its habitats. Bacteria inhabit soil, water, acidic hot springs, radioactive waste, and the deep portions of Earth’s crust. Bacteria also live in symbiotic and parasitic relationships with plants and animals. They are also known to have flourished in manned spacecraft. There are typically 40 million bacterial cells in a gram of soil and a million bacterial cells in a millilitre of fresh water. There are approximately 5×1030 bacteria on Earth, forming a biomass which exceeds that of all plants and animals. Bacteria are vital in recycling nutrients, with many of the stages in nutrient cycles dependent on these organisms, such as the fixation of nitrogen from the atmosphere and putrefaction. In the biological communities surrounding hydrothermal vents and cold seeps, bacteria provide the nutrients needed to sustain life by converting dissolved compounds such as hydrogen sulphide and methane to energy. On 17 March 2013, researchers reported data that suggested bacterial life forms thrive in the Mariana Trench, which with a depth of up to 11 kilometres is the deepest part of the Earth’s oceans. Other researchers reported related studies that microbes thrive inside rocks up to 580 metres below the sea floor under 2.6 kilometres of ocean off the coast of the northwestern United States. According to one of the researchers,”You can find microbes everywhere — they’re extremely adaptable to conditions, and survive wherever they are.” Most bacteria have not been characterized, and only about half of the phyla of bacteria have species that can be grown in the laboratory. The study of bacteria is known as bacteriology, a branch of microbiology. There are approximately ten times as many bacterial cells in the human flora as there are human cells in the body, with the largest number of the human flora being in the gut flora, and a large number on the skin. The vast majority of the bacteria in the body are rendered harmless by the protective effects of the immune system, and some are beneficial. However, several species of bacteria are pathogenic and cause infectious diseases, including cholera, syphilis, anthrax, leprosy, and bubonic plague. The most common fatal bacterial diseases are respiratory infections, with tuberculosis alone killing about 2 million people per year, mostly in sub-Saharan Africa. In developed countries, antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections and are also used in farming, making antibiotic resistance a growing problem. In industry, bacteria are important in sewage treatment and the breakdown of oil spills, the production of cheese and yogurt through fermentation, and the recovery of gold, palladium, copper and other metals in the mining sector, as well as in biotechnology, and the manufacture of antibiotics and other chemicals. Once regarded as plants constituting the class Schizomycetes, bacteria are now classified as prokaryotes. Unlike cells of animals and other eukaryotes, bacterial cells do not contain a nucleus and rarely harbour membrane-bound organelles. Although the term bacteria traditionally included all prokaryotes, the scientific classification changed after the discovery in the 1990s that prokaryotes consist of two very different groups of organisms that evolved from an ancient common ancestor. These evolutionary domains are called Bacteria and Archaea.

Finding the Right Glutathione Supplement: A Comprehensive Guide

In our vast natural world, numerous species of plants and animals exist, each with its own intricacies and mysteries. While it is impossible to fully comprehend every detail about them, we can still appreciate the incredible elements that contribute to our health and well-being. Glutathione, a remarkable compound found in nature, is one such element that offers an array of unexpected health benefits.

Whether you are new to the concept of glutathione or already familiar with its advantages, join us as we delve into the facts and explore the extraordinary benefits this component brings to our bodies.

What is Glutathione?

Glutathione is a potent antioxidant present in various plants, fungi, animals, archaea, and specific bacteria. Its formidable capabilities include shielding our bodies from the harmful effects of free radicals, reactive oxygen species, lipid peroxides, heavy metals, and peroxides. In essence, Glutathione combats oxidative stress by neutralizing free radicals. Composed of three vital amino acids—Glycine, Glutamine, and Cysteine—it plays a crucial role in preventing and treating chronic conditions such as Hepatitis, Alzheimer's, heart problems, cancer, Parkinson's disease, autism, and osteoarthritis.

Recommended Dosage and Timing:

For the standard dosage, it is advisable to take one Glutathione capsule twice a day—once in the morning and once before bedtime. If opting for the powder form, it can be mixed with water for consumption. However, it is important to consult a medical practitioner before starting any supplement regimen, especially for individuals with pre-existing chronic conditions who require close supervision.

Food Sources of Glutathione:

To naturally enhance Glutathione levels in the body through dietary means, consider incorporating foods rich in this antioxidant, such as spinach, asparagus, avocados, and okra. Additionally, certain dietary options like chicken, beef, cottage cheese, organ meats, Brazil nuts, and brown rice can also contribute to improved levels of this antioxidant within the body.

Health Benefits of Glutathione:

Glutathione, a vital antioxidant, offers a wide range of health benefits and protective properties. Let's explore nine key advantages:

Reduces oxidative stress: Glutathione helps combat oxidative stress by neutralizing free radicals, potentially preventing conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, and cancer. Glutathione supplements can be beneficial in reducing oxidative stress.

Impact on uncontrolled diabetes: Glutathione supplementation can aid in weight management and blood sugar control, particularly for individuals with diabetes mellitus. It supports fat burning, weight regulation, and stabilization of sugar levels.

Respiratory disease relief: Glutathione, a component of N-acetylcysteine, can alleviate respiratory issues in conditions like cystic fibrosis and asthma. It helps reduce mucus thickness and inflammation.

Boosts energy levels: By reducing oxidative stress, Glutathione restores the body's healing abilities and promotes increased energy levels, combating fatigue and promoting overall vitality.

Stronger hair and nails: Glutathione's antioxidant properties protect against free radical damage, preserving the health and appearance of hair, skin, and nails. It can minimize signs of aging, such as dark spots, wrinkles, and fine lines.

Reduced insulin resistance: Age-related decline in Glutathione levels can contribute to insulin resistance. Supplementing with Glutathione may help improve insulin sensitivity, aiding in the management of diabetes and overall health.

Anti-aging effects: Glutathione helps counteract the production of free radicals, delaying the signs of aging. By maintaining optimal levels, it promotes youthful-looking skin and a healthy body.

Liver disease prevention: Glutathione plays a crucial role in protecting and healing liver cells, making it beneficial for chronic liver diseases, including alcoholic and fatty liver disease. Maintaining adequate Glutathione levels supports liver health.

Blood pressure regulation: Recent studies have indicated that Glutathione supplementation can help lower blood pressure levels, particularly in individuals with coronary endothelial dysfunction. Adding this powerful antioxidant to your regimen may contribute to a healthier body.

How to Increase Glutathione Levels:

There are two approaches to boosting Glutathione levels.

Natural methods: Increase Glutathione levels naturally by consuming food items rich in this antioxidant. These include incorporating foods like spinach, asparagus, avocados, and okra into your diet. Additionally, including chicken, beef, cottage cheese, organ meats, Brazil nuts, and brown rice can also help improve Glutathione levels.

Glutathione supplements: Another option is to choose high-quality Glutathione tablets or supplements. These supplements can raise Glutathione levels within a few weeks, providing effective results without delay. Consult with a healthcare professional to select the best Glutathione supplement suitable for your needs.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, extensive research has consistently demonstrated the remarkable effectiveness of Glutathione. This powerful antioxidant not only aids in the treatment of chronic diseases but also mitigates their harmful effects, while promoting the rejuvenation of our body's essential cellular structure. Its numerous health benefits make Glutathione a valuable component in maintaining overall well-being.

I’m confused about something and you’re an mgsv expert so I’m asking you. when did kaz actually lose his limbs bc I always assumed it was during the torture by the soviets? I saw people saying that he lost them during the skulls attack in afghanistan and some were saying he lost them during the heli crash? (one might say he wouldn’t have trained the afghan fightwrs with two missing limbs but then again he did train solid snake or maybe he just gave verbal instructions) I at first didn’t like the heli theory but he did talk about the msf attack to venom while touching his sleeve so maybe it’s true? also sorry if it is a dumb question, I’ve only actively listened to half of the tapes so maybe I missed something

Hello Anon!

‘Expert’ feels exceptionally generous but thank you! It’s something I don’t think has ever been given a super clear answer here, but I will say I don’t believe he lost them in the crash. My guess is either The Skulls or torture, but I lean slightly more towards the possibility of The Skulls.

I’ll admit freely the reasoning I’m going to give for not believing it to be from the crash is open to debate  but here’s an image from some of the MGSV Official Art:

The bio information of particular interest is this:

“Black Ops Field Work”. It is not impossible for someone to be in the field in Kaz’s condition but it would be exceptionally difficult. While you make a good point to Kaz instructing Snake in the mid to late 90s, I’ll point out acting as an instructor is different from being in the field. It’s not unheard of for military and military adjacent soldiers and officers to move to instructor, teacher, or desk job when the field is no longer an option, but they’re not bad off enough for an honorable discharge or early retirement. (I am not entirely certain how accurate this is these days however).

Moving further, I note that general reactions (from Kaz himself and others) point to a more recent incident. If he had been injured that severely, I don’t think it would hmm..feel as immediately ‘raw’ to him.

Also, note this information from the secret Zero and Kaz tape:

Zero: “You weren’t in hospital long, I had trouble finding you.”

If Kaz had been missing two limbs as early as this scene here (post crash video) I think he would’ve been in the hospital much longer than “Not long.”

Noting the touch of the sleeve when he is describing the MSF attack, I think he may possibly be associating it all as loss in general, or even because the arm is what Venom himself lost, but I will leave it open as something I currently lack the ability to answer this one clearly.

If the Skulls did it, this would align to how Kaz originally described the attack in the tapes, especially for his note of “their arms and legs rained down around us.”

There’s also the probability that, if they were attacked by them, they wield metallic archaea swords. Which we know is hot enough to eviscerate anything in its path. Could this also cauterize a wound? Not cleanly, not medically or efficiently. But could they in a horrifically messy, largely fatal way? Maybe.

Finally, as for it being The Soviet’s, this is possible for a few reasons. I’d ask  you to refer to the post here about the capture possibly being pre determined by Kaz and Ocelot but for a more concise answer, ‘limb removal’ as a torture technique is not unheard of. However, it can go wrong fast.

If you’re familiar with gangrene, then you already know what I’m talking about. Torture amputations aren’t always going to end up that way, but it’s pretty hard to not get infected in this scenario. Especially if they’re wanting to keep Kaz alive for a certain point. If I had a better idea of the way his body was cut, I’d try a stronger theory,  but from what we know I’ll consider The Skulls most likely, Soviet's also most likely and MSF attack I guess least likely? Ultimately we never got a clear response.

Metallic Archaea? Or just a spot of Bad Luck?

“Are we driving there?”

“No. We can’t. In fact we can’t even GO there!”

“Oh? Why not.”

“Had to cancel it at the last minute because of an unfortunate development.”

“Development?”

“Yeah. You didn’t hear? The Land Rover’s got arthritis.”

“Ah I see. Wait….WHAT?!”

“Yeah, it’s got arthritis. Very bad. Sad, really.”

“Wh…arthritis? In a CAR?! But…wh…why?! I mean it’s a CAR! Why does it have arthritis? How?! What does it NEED it for????!!!”

“I don’t know. It’s old. Shit happens I guess.”
