Super cool. Sagan-y vibes in Lovecraft universe.

Where is it from?

I did not write this. Just something another redditor wrote that I saved because I loved it. Unfortunately the account is now deleted so I cannot give proper credit.

Fittingly, it is unknowable.

In asked AI, it found a Reddit user reposting it 5 years ago, prob OP's reference.

I hit a searxng it found that one and a previous repost from the same user 7 years ago, but still redacted. It then unhelpfully mentions I should use the way back machine, even when the article was written post-redaction.

Then I used one of the other unique sentences with quotes and found this one. That referenced the original and the user pre-delete.

Good Cthulhu fanfiction has a tendency to stick around. Get re-quoted. I was hoping somebody preserved the name.

There's probably an entire book somewhere written about if an author deletes their account, morally is their name still bound to the content, or does it become a right to get forgotten at that point?
