  Ok - so, I dropped the ball on this one. I missed the last long from O5-5 to Daniel DeVorn. The log was after the footnotes of the article which is the point that the majority of articles end, it was a pretty huge mistake on my part. I promise to do better in the future and won't make a habit of it. I'm sorry to "The Great Hippo" and my listeners.

  Should probably note that, for those who are confused, this takes place in the broken masquerade canon, where the foundation failed to keep the anomalous world a secret.

  So I&apos;m guessing theVolgun didn&apos;t have a good way to include the ENDING to this story as part of the &apos;lecture&apos;. So here&apos;s a quick summary- after the article proper there is a link to a email sent by an 05 councilman addressed to the missing CEO. It repeats what some of the article talks about, how the Foundation has changed, how they now have an ethics board and so on. It also notes how proud this 05 member of the council is with the changes, that the Foundation is a better organization that has a sense of morality now. But the 05 member is starting to feel like a remnant from an older time and often wonders if there really is a place for an old monster like him in the current Foundation. But then sometimes someone like the CEO comes along and reminds them why they are still there. Because sometimes the only way to deal with a monster is with another monster. No one is ever going to find the CEO. There won&apos;t be an inquiry or a ethics meeting. He&apos;s just going to stay vanished forever as far as most of the Foundation will know. Except the 05 Council and the CEO himself. And the CEO won&apos;t know for very long. The letter concludes by welcoming the CEO to his cell. It asks him to go ahead and put on that orange jumpsuit in the corner. He&apos;ll notice a scranton reality anchor in front of him. They will be conducting some tests shortly...

  One of the best scp&apos;s ever written. On the surface, it&apos;s about a spooky boat, but deeper down it&apos;s about the horror of companies putting profit and cheap easy solutions above all else

  Foundation: &quot;Uh, excuse me? DLS? It looks like the scotch tape you put over the leak is starting to leak.&quot;<br>DLS: &quot;Put two pieces of scotch tape over it.&quot;

  This is easily one of the scariest SCPs ever because it exists. <br><br>&quot;No it&apos;s fine, things are within acceptable failure risk, we don&apos;t need to spend more on more safety equipment. <br><br>Disregard the screaming.&quot;

  I can&apos;t help but think this SCP was written (and written excellently, of course) as a reaction to the growing number of SCPs which just threw SRAs at any problem and they&apos;d magically fix them. A perfect illustration of why emergency systems can usually only mitigate a problem rather than actually curing it.

  MTF-Theta 5 &quot;The Bigger Boat&quot; has to be one of the greatest names I&apos;ve heard so far.

  I love the idea of a boat or any place for that matter just being so dimensionally screwed up that it’s near suicide to even get slightly near it, reminds me of annihilation, the further in you get, the more bizarre things become.

  Damn, this SCP is brutal. Does makes me miss the older, less organised days of the foundation. Like comparing a gritty, freelance product to a sleek, modernised presentation.

  This is a pretty terrifying entry considering how casually the Foundation throws around SRA&apos;s at any kind of reality bending anomaly and that they were almost becoming similar to the old version of Telekill where it was just the magical cureall for anomalies
