I've been using MoneyLion for a few months and it has generally been trustworthy, until today.

I received a text with a code, indicating that somebody was trying to log into my account. I changed my password and thought it was fine. However, five transactions were made, with a total of $480 instacash requested and transferred to my MoneyLion wallet.

What would be the reason for this, you may ask?

Because somebody from INSIDE the company was able to add tips to each instacash request. There are also mandatory fees of $7ish dollars per request. I was able to get the tips voided, but still must pay at least $30 in fees, not to mention the fees that it will cost to transfer any of this money to my bank.

This is VERY shady, and indicates that somebody in the company was given an order to do this to users' accounts. Because the tips and the fees make money for the company, and trap the users from being able to dispute the fees, since the instacash was transferred to their OWN account.

Some of the most unbelievable 3 and a half minutes I've ever heard.

• >!As mostly everybody knows, the opening scene is a continuation of the lake scene from Evil Dead Rise. We see Deadite Jessica and her fate, as well as the remains of the cousin she scalped.!<
• >!Will's grandfather was researching the Necronomicon(s). His recording is dated 1983, and he says that he "warned them not to read from it." Knowby is never mentioned by name, but I assume that is who the grandfather is referring to.!<
• >!There's a new bit of lore about the Three Wise Men, which is something talked about in the grandfather's recording and in the journal. It is a cult that created the Kandarian dagger(s), and works against the Deadites. I THINK the implication is that this cult was present in the opening scene of the 2013 film (the ones who set that Deadite girl on fire).!<
• >!A sketch of the 2013 book is in the journal, as well as a newspaper clipping about the events of that film. There are also photocopies of Necronomicon pages, and I believe those are from the 2013 book, but not totally clear.!<
• >!The grandfather has a selection of daggers. One of them looks just like the one from ED2, but oddly enough, it doesn't work. A different dagger works against the Deadites. It's unclear why the original one doesn't work - it is either a copy/fake of the ED2 one, or it's ineffective because these Deadites come from a different book perhaps?!<
• The post-credit scene features >!a cameo of Ellie from EDR.!<

I think I got everything, but I'll update it if I think of anything else. Most of these were shown in the trailers. There are also a few callbacks / Easter eggs (though far less than there were in EDR), but I wanted to focus more on lore/continuity.

A friend told me a few months back that ube was getting popular here in the US, and that the PI was running out of ube as a result. I didn't believe it until I bought some ube ice cream and some ube bread the other day - neither taste like ube! Magnolia ice cream has always been legit af and now it just doesn't taste like anything. Is this just me, or has anyone else noticed the decline in ube flavor as well? I'm really hoping it's just me, or that it's temporary. And if people ARE noticing it...does it still taste right back in the PI?

This may be way off-base, but...

Now that time travel is a part of the story, I'm wondering if "saving the children" means saving them from being sacrificed in the first place. It would go against the fixed loop that the time travel theory here seems to be, but it would logically be a way to save the children that isn't as simple as "setting their spirits free."
