Periscoping at 2 am is hard and I think I missed the “what are you going to DO” part so I’m going to clarify.

1) I will forgive myself when I fail at being a good person, and do better next time.
2) I will continue to take more chances and say “yes” more often.

Here’s mine. 10 seconds.

Might have gone a second or two over but that’s OK. I’ll do better next time.

I’m not in a place where I can periscope today so a text post will have to do. I’ll preface this by saying I haven’t watched anyone’s responses yet, so this is me, 100%. Here goes…

I’m selfish. I hate that I have to remind myself to think about others sometimes, and that I’m not as attuned to what they feel and think as I could be. I hate that…[Read more]

Sounds like an interesting experiment, so I thought I’d give it a try. Since I’m in rural Japan not much is available that fits the criteria of “something I had ten years ago and didn’t like,” so I had to make do. As a kid I tried vegetable juice once and disliked it, and I haven’t had any since. The closest thing from my tiny local grocery store…[Read more]

@larry Next time you see her, ask about the retreats.

@winstonsmith we’ve already got a “That’s so Joyce” TV show… Coming to VHS home video this fall: the sequel, “That’s so Horace.” (Somebody please make a promo!)

@wanda102 no problem.

I think you make a good point, and in something like this where lines are constantly being redrawn or erased altogether questioning what we’re shown is essential. Personally I’m the type to give people the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise, as genuine grievances can be easily lost in the noise.

So here’s a…[Read more]

About the location of the “retreat” – just because there’s classical music doesn’t mean it’s the Sinclair house… It’s not like having classical on in the background is unique to them. Heck, my apartment radio is perpetually tuned to the classical station. I and many of my musician friends have CD/mp3 collections that get listened to. Horace…[Read more]

@mistere it could be the new moon event, but I think it’s unlikely. The NM event was made out to be a ritual sacrifice, where this “retreat” doesn’t feel like that, at least from what little we’ve seen (or heard, rather). Also, the slack messages make these “actor retreats” sound like a regular occurrence, where as the NM event doesn’t. But I may…[Read more]

From the slack:

“I only have a few moments, Sarah. I’m sure you can verify my identity. We don’t have a lot of time. No, I don’t have a lot of time. Most of you will write this off as some hoax leading up to something. Others will make a joke out of it. My friend went missing because of it. I love immersive theater, I thought I was joining…[Read more]

@mamatato I’m working on typing out what was said in the slack. Hold tight.

Wow, @shankfx22 @thebuz @kortneydarling that is fantastic. Everything from concept to execution is flawless. The tone of the finished piece is mesmerizing. I love it!

@larry I’m worried that your power alone won’t be enough to protect her from the grubby fingers of the OSDM when they’re intent on getting what they want.

Could be HiB, assuming they haven’t been “taken care of” already? But I do look forward to hearing what she has to say.

I believe that you earn respect rather than demand respect. A good leader makes you want to be led. He makes you believe that he’s great even when you go behind the curtain to check the batteries in his wireless mouse and you realized he’s some befuddled guy who’s just as lost as anybody.

@timsmyname I am 100% on board with you on this. As an or…[Read more]

Best of luck to you all tonight. The OSDM needs to be kept in check!

Welp, nobody’s coming to my front door in this weather.

Does that set of slashes and parentheses in the middle mean anything…? This is the first Resistance message I’ve gotten so it could be nothing.

@shankfx22 Sure, power in the short term. But now all Buz has to show for it is a plant and a strained friendship. There aren’t any long-term benefits to such a move. Do things like that often enough and people will refuse to play ball, and then where will you be? Bus only got away with it because Tad gave him the benefit of the doubt. It won’t…[Read more]
