Dark as all hell. I know the main story beats from the No Sleep story on Reddit. This feels a little more fleshed out from what I remember.

I can definitely see how the story jumping around so much would confuse some people. I think it’s well done because if you’re paying attention there are a lot of call back and references to past and future things.

The mom is a dumb bitch and now I’m sad. Josh’s whole family got so fucked over, how depressing.
