Thank you, both @bcbishop and @daela, for this particular aspect of the debate.

I continue to think long and hard about the idea of agency in both this particular case and in the larger scope of the world and my own ability. I think both of you have raised good points and I agree that contemplating ways to interact that are active but not…[Read more]

Going off of what @daela iterated for me regarding the quote on loyalty, this makes sense. Trust and loyalty are being heavily emphasized for good reasons.

This reads as a distraction just as much as @bcbishop‘s OSDM snarkiness.

What happened to casting aside loyalties? Did we learn nothing from the notes we acquired yesterday?

EDIT: @daela found the correct statement. I rescind my question.

It doesn’t seem to fit the OSDM MO, but…change is upon us.

Well said, @daela. Not only is this not the kind of tactic that OSDM usually uses, but I think it’s non-spoilery to add that several elements of this chain seem very reminiscent of the work done by BOS/TMC/Morgan.

Are we supposed to recognize that? Is Morgan now officially supporting OSD…[Read more]

Update from Slack:

A new IG post popped up, but it didn’t match where we thought it would.

Then A showed up in Slack and said, “You don’t see it because you believe you already have it. First, admit you know nothing. And then move toward education.”

Two more IG posts (with some indecipherable writing) went up (and it looks like they belong o…[Read more]

I just posted a Periscope that summarizes things from the macro perspective. Thanks to all and @bcbishop, I think we have cracked the nut from the big picture side of things. I’ll recount it here, as it will nicely complement @daela‘s fine work above on the details. In short, I think we can now view any given interaction or moment within a more…[Read more]

It’s been said by several people that Cecilia appears to be the one to focus on. As Sam noted on the Slack, Noah had said something akin to Horace being a “teddy bear” compared to his mother. @daela also mentioned on the Slack that it seems awfully sus that:

“We’ve always been told that Horace has been pulling the strings; everyone has always…

@daela – I thought I heard from someone that Cecilia said she had two sons, but I honestly couldn’t say who that was at this point.

Finally getting around to adding my experience to the ocean.
I had a similar path to @daela, but there were surprising differences in the interactions alone. Funny how little things can change the whole vibe.
There are certain parts I won’t go into too much detail over because…well, we all know and don’t need it explained again.

Parking…[Read more]

@daela The box — I only just recently posted my story and mentioned it on Slack. She wasn’t cradling it. She was clutching it. I tried to carry it for her as we walked to my car but she wouldn’t let me. She held it tight in her lap the entire drive home.

@daela
I do quite enjoy mason and am always hoping for him to not be in on it all BUT he did watch Noah so the same thing over and over? Wouldn’t he tell Morgan after the first night that Noah has been giving the exact same speech, down to the blocking, every hour? Or did they figure it was fake and decide to continue on so we participants a…[Read more]

@daela if we are saying that every night was canon (as we should, since that’s the same for tension last year), would you also not trust Mason? Mason played the part just as anyone else, easily being able to tell Morgan every night was fiction rather than just saying he thought it was fiction last minute.

<3 <3 <3 this is amazing, @daela

BRAVA, @daela!

This is amazing @daela 👌👏👏👏

The most amazing Q & A ever, @daela!

Or could it like @daela mentioned in the Slack?

At one, they collect footage of a harmless theatrical performance. At the other, the real shit goes down. And who’s to say which we attended, the theatrical version or the real version.

Maybe one is supposed to be the “fake” theatrical version, darkly sexy and culty like the photos show, but…[Read more]

Point of order — @daela —

Stephanie NEVER showed up to rehearsal of my show in a red dress and a wig.

It never happened.

Nor did I ever say she did.

Kindly clarify where and how this information came to you.

So if everything is part of The Lust Experience as @bcbishop mentioned, then Tension is also part of LUST in a similar way since it has been taken apart similar to OOA etc. In which case, couldn’t LUST just turn out to be part of something bigger in a similar way? Particularly since we’re seeing similar lines again from folks (in this case @a most…[Read more]

@daela

Is that a lustexperience.com email address?

Yup, info@ thelustexperience. So yea, it’s either that there really is a power struggle, or that we are looking at even more fiction. The OSDM could be fake. The System could also be fake. We could be looking at a situation where it’s all fiction.
