Alright, I’m taking a different interpretation. I’m not going to be hashtagging anything here and I’m not going to be discussing this on instagram or facebook because, honestly, those aren’t accounts that intersect with my personal life.
I don’t have a supporting phone call or insider information, I just have the path I’ve been led down and the…[Read more]

@shinobi Nothing is wrong with helping people if that’s your jam. And sometimes it is mine. But I exhaust a lot of my energy (emotional and otherwise) helping people every day and I don’t get much from it. I suppose one could talk of ethical obligations (which I sometimes agree with) or a feeling of general do-good (which reeks of savior-complexes…[Read more]

@persephone I wonder, in regards to heroes and savior complex… what exactly is wrong with wanting to help people?

Did you eat the candy?
Did you swallow the pill?
Has it saved you, yet?
Do you think it will?
Has the end arrived?
Did the beginning end?
Are you my enemy,
Or are you my friend?
If we ask the questions
Will the truth be found?
Or is it all just lies
Full of fury and sound?
If tomorrow and tomorrow
Creep on their petty pace
Are we the turtles,
Or…[Read more] -
Lauren Bello started the topic Teams in the forum RELATIONSHIPS 6 years, 9 months ago
Porting this list over from Slack, as we discuss where we stand and why:
1) Team BOS bc they want to save people
1a) Team BOS bc they want to punish people and burn shit
1b) Team BOS despite misgivings bc their ideals are close enough to mine that I can get behind them to make change
2) Team BOS bc Morgan <3
3) Team BOS bc I was team BOS last…[Read more] -
Unseen Presence replied to the topic Is "Morgan" really Morgan? in the forum SPECULATION 6 years, 9 months ago
I wholeheartedly agree. If I were suddenly given the option to have coffee with Morgan at one end of a table and Noah at the other, then I could be certain that I was at least seeing those people.
Over a phone…not so much. As someone who edits and shoots video myself, I am very up on the face-replacing stuff and it’s more than a little…[Read more]

Addison started the topic Is "Morgan" really Morgan? in the forum SPECULATION 6 years, 9 months ago
I touched on this in Slack, but wanted to flesh it out here. I feel it is naive to take the recent developments at face value.
Think about it. Suddenly, after a brief silence and some apparent action behind the scenes, BOS has come out victorious, and OSDM has disappeared. Which is something we’ve learned from social media posts and a handful o…[Read more]

@coryphella YESS. YES YES YES. Particularly #3 & #4. If your desire is to be the hero, than have fun. I never cared much for heroes and savior complexes.

@coryphella, wow! That really laid it down!! I’m officially declaring team “no side.” Not because I can’t make a choice, but because morally I just can’t align with either side, first because I’m not really anti-OSDM (perhaps because I never did Tension or perhaps because I’m not sure what they’ve done is real) I’m also just not a group…[Read more]

Here are a couple of ideas I think we should abandon:
1. “The Puppy Experience.” OMG. We all know it’s not The Puppy Experience. We all know what we signed up for. Please, for the love of all things holy, stop explaining to us what it is we signed up for. Blah blah blah hearts destroyed blah. We get it. There is NOTHING wrong with wanting some…[Read more]

It feels like Morgan now owns a bigger share of the company and wants all the interns to help with promotion. Or someone else is forcing his hand. This is “off.”
I’m rather new to this – started at MSE. So, I have the luxury (?) of not being emotionally invested. However, I’ve researched the story of “The Experiences,” quite a bit. I’m not afr…[Read more]

the king has spun us around, making us dizzy with lies (and truth within the lies). now the king is gone, the game reset, and we are still spinning, rudderless. grab hold of something, someone, an idea, an ideal, anything that you are willing to stabilize yourself with. we begin anew, amid a sea of old.

My thinking with this is that if everything has been theater, has been fiction, then my going against the OSDM fits in with that theater as well. But if it’s not theater, if the OSDM truly has been doing these things and harming people, then you can bet I’ll fight them with everything I have. Either way, fiction or not, it’s the right move for me.

We’ve been in this place before (going toe to toe within one another because we’re on opposite sides of an issue). I don’t want us in that toxic place again. I’m not going to address anything except for I interpreted it that you personally felt you were attacked for 18 months.
