Finally have some time to get into the forums and literally WTF?!!?

@mike you and @russell are the ones that got me interested and into all of this. Don’t make me regret it. You’re better than this and you know it.

Holy shit WTF @mike, guess it shows how much huh. But was it really enough for Mason?

“In chaos, there is fertility,” seems to be a major touch point for most of the groups we’ve encountered. In sowing chaos, it allows them to do their work from behind the dust they’ve kicked up. While we scramble through it, they’re quietly working towards their own ends. As we become used to the chaos, they find new types to unleash. Each one…[Read more]

Here’s the whole photo:

The quote is from the Diary of Anais Nin Volume 1. Here are the sentences directly before and after: “The free improvisations of the surrealists break down the artificial order and symmetry of consciousness. In chaos there is fertility. How difficult it is to be “sincere” when each moment I must choose between five or six souls.”

Wow this really does strike too close to home. I don’t really care about Noah, Sabrina or Joyce, but I do have a lot of love for both @mike and @russell

I don’t know what they did to you Mike, but if any part of your old self is still there, fight those bastards that are fucking with your head. I mirror what most people are saying, this isn’t…[Read more]

@mkarrett I received 16 emails for old posts, all at 8:58pm. I’m thinking it’s a glitch, but if someone is digging, I’ll send you all of the stuff.

I don’t think it’s a glitch. I mean, I received that notification at the time it was posted, so why would I receive another one? And why do they all seem to concern Russell and Mason/Briarberg?

I also got a email notification from Russell. It wasn’t tagging me but it was a thread I commented on and subscribedto updates from.
Specifically it was the “Worried about Megan” thread, which is quite a huge coincidence because that’s the thread where no one could get ahold of her the night of Mason’s visit. The Russell reply was a comment he…[Read more]

Mine was this one: https://thelustexperience.com/forums/topic/9-12-instagram-from-mason/#post-24561

While the post was about Mason, it can also be read and applied to Mike given what happened last night. Still not totally sold on it being anything but a glitch, but a strange coincidence with this post for sure.

@kevin I did get an email, tagged with you and @mkarrett from 9/12.

I hope he’s okay.

I just realized that all of the Russell notifications that Melissa received belatedly were from posts concerning Mason, and so was the one I received. What about yours, Kevin?

All y’all getting notifications doesn’t sound like just a coincidence, or wonky forum stuff.

Which post? When?

@mkarrett @remrelganaps I had the same thing happen to me (and I assume one is the same post, did you get an email for it too @wanda102). I also received a second notification about a post that @nothenrygale had tagged me in.

At the time I figured it was just some forum weirdness, but now, who knows? Can you tell if your post was edited at all Brad?

The piece is Consciousness of Shock by Victor Brauner.

Some additional info from the Guggenheim website:
A symbolic struggle is expressed between the human and bird halves of the hybrid form in Consciousness of Shock, in which Victor Brauner portrays a complex boat-shaped figure in the course of battling for control of itself. Drawn in the…[Read more]

The painting is Consciousness of Shock by Victor Brauner.

@mkarrett Those notifications are…interesting. If it’s not a fluke, or some site cleanup, why those posts in particular?

@ruck Kinda feeling the same. This is either the greatest ruse or completely fucked, but either way I’m intrigued by the Why as well.

aaannnd…does this mean no more podcast??

@mkarrett – I also received an e-mail notification of Russell tagging me in a comment, also at 8:58 last night. The tag was from a post from two weeks ago. I thought it was just Yahoo being crappy, but if the same thing happened to you, it’s something else.

@bcbishop Nope, though Mike and I didn’t talk all too much online, Russell and I even less so. Most of the time when we talk is when we run into each other for a show or something. I can ping them both and see if we get a hit though.
