Welcome @noahp!

So I could possibly grab a drink on Friday or Saturday, if that would work for people.

I’m not quite sure what I think about Noah right now honestly, and the reason is that getting an email from “Sarah” threw me, and I think it was supposed to. The website projected this cliched alpha male persona that some might have seen around discussions a lot lately, and the reason I reacted the way I did in my initial email to him (and why I…[Read more]

@thegilded – I was about to respond…it’s like you know me, or something.

I do want us to have a MSP-Lust meetup, with @colaptesauratus too, I just don’t want to have to back out. I get back on the 11th, maybe the week after that?

@ziegenbart – I’m hesitant to commit this week because I’m so behind on work, and driving students to St. Louis next week. I don’t want to say “yes” and then have to back out because of work…did it last night to a friend actually. 🙁

@kipsie speaks for me.

@thebuz – maybe winners spell their names with two z’s?

Welcome to the losers club. 🙂

The piece I wrote “Looking for a Game with Consequences” got its name from either Westworld or from Jane McGonigal’s commentary on Westworld – I can’t remember if the phrase “game with consequences” was ever actually spoken in the show.

And hang on – this reminds me of the Kansas City letter – didn’t it reference Clockmakers and investments?

Hey @ziegenbart – I’m not Minnesotan (only been here 18ish months) and *do* want to get to know you, I’m just frantically trying to build hospital equipment in 1/4″ scale at the moment because things are due…:( I’m sorry, and we *will* get together.

@colaptesauratus & @ziegenbart – Yeah I’m severely disappointed in this “snowstorm.” @emar is sick as well and I have drawings due, let’s just plan on rescheduling.

@winstonsmith – that’s a Scientology reference, yes? Should we also assume that rats are your biggest fear?

That sounds really intense and amazing and from that scene I can imagine others that are memorable. Maybe it’s a technical theater thing – like you said, you know *how* the magic is done. And if that’s what it is for you then YOUARENOWHERE might do to you what it did to me. If I see he’s touring to LA I will let you know but right now I don’t…[Read more]

Hey @colaptesauratus, @ziegenbart, & @emar – I am up to my eyeballs in this one design so I haven’t been around much…but any thoughts on tomorrow? One of my students said “zero to twenty inches of snow” which is the least helpful thing ever. I figure I’ll check back in tomorrow afternoon to see if y’all want to meet up.

@pandace88: I want to react to something you said last night so this is delayed, sorry, but OMG, YES ME TOO.

I work in theatre so for me, it’s really hard to not see actors, props, sets, scripts, etc. It’s really hard for me to allow myself to connect in a real way because to me it’s all fake.

HOLY SHIT YES. I’ve been working in theater for 2…[Read more]

This will probably sound crazy. Oh well.

I treated Tension as if it was real. I didn’t strategize and I didn’t perform for one second of it. Sometimes that made it really difficult to “play,” because I SUCK at pretending. I don’t perform shock, surprise, or fear (or..happiness, or serenity, or anything) if I don’t actually feel it. A lot of this…[Read more]

@electrichippo – Oh I don’t think they did that, either, but I guess it’s all in how you want to see it.
