So it appears there are iConfidant files of people outside of Exhibit C on the dark web. Who actually released them though? The obvious candidate is OSDM, but what would their goal really be there? Making money, I suppose, but it doesn’t seem like the money that could be gained would outweigh them being the only people to have this kind of in…[Read more]

These replies sound less like someone concerned about your well being and more like someone conducting research on your behavior. I realize that doesn’t totally hold up because they’re coloring your perspective by painting it all in a negative light.

There’s also something going off in my head making me think that this could be more phishing.…[Read more]

@thegilded Yeah, those were the initial iConfidant calls that went out.

If this is Exhibit C, wouldn’t that point to Mason Silver being connected to OSDM (or whoever is responsible for the contract)?

Diving into this even more, it appears that New Man was tied to Victory Over the Sun, “an avant-garde Cubo-Futurist ‘opera’ staged in Russia.” While the opera predates the image, Lissitzky put on his own version of the show and created New Man for it.

Victory Over the Sun is described by the New York Times from a review of a restaging in the…[Read more]

I agree that it points to Noah, but it also points to all of us as well. I can’t remember if the words “self-actualization” were used last night, but that’s where we’ve all been pushed to over the last week (and it appeared to be Noah’s goal for himself as well). We chose to confront different aspects of our own lives and then talked about what we…[Read more]

Getting to see Horace in person and he’s kind of a contradiction. Sarah told the story about how he selected her for Noah and he seemed to have an incredible amount of power and control. Dude is a doctor, owned the hospital, and was running in depth tests on what had to be a lot of people. Yet, while Sarah was talking, he was getting antsy as hell…[Read more]

I can’t say that all of these experiences have been pleasant, but there were definitely things to take away from all of them. I never thought I would say this, but: Thanks, Noah.

Here’s what should be a mostly accurate transcription of Noah’s video:

“Why do hate myself? I don’t. I stopped feeling so long ago that I don’t remember. So now I have to push other people into feeling. I have to manipulate them. For the greater good of course. But I don’t feel love, I don’t know that I ever have. Either giving or receiving love.…[Read more]

Well that was a blast. You guys are going to have a lot of fun today.

Hope you enjoyed it @maddyxxx, I definitely didn’t. Maybe it does feel better on some level to admit it to people who aren’t myself though. And at the very least I won’t carry around the worry of doing that all day.

Went out and got a thing of yogurt because I can’t stand the smell or taste of it. I can’t even remember the last time I tried to eat a cup of the stuff, it’s got to be 15+ years, probably more. I’m actually glad @maddyxxx set this task out because I found out I don’t totally hate it anymore. The memory of the thing was actually much worse than…[Read more]

The quote also plays into the idea that those trapped in cages may want to continue living lives of complacency. It’s easier for those inside the cage to stay there and not have to attempt anything, even though flying is completely natural for them and what they’re meant to do.

Some additional info on the painting:

I don’t think there’s any reason for this, @wanda102 has always been considered in her opinions of the factions here. Understanding her reasoning and arguments are worthwhile to see what OSDM supporters think of both OSDM and BOS. While we’re on opposite sides now, I can’t think that BOS wouldn’t be better off with trying to make an ally of…[Read more]

I should point out the name Levi came out of the Tension Experience book. It was brought up that Noah’s in there, with his actor being listed as a person named Levi.

The Tension Experience book is definitely OSDM sponsored given what they’ve redacted from it. The name Levi could have been dropped in there to throw people off the trail, almost l…[Read more]

@sfire8 Elizabeth (among other names she’s used) is the one who met with @mamatato last night and it looks like she was the host from the iConfidant event. She is not Hostess In Black. She doesn’t know where Hostess In Black is, but confirmed that HIB’s name is Brianna.

When she said she’d done things, I took it to mean that she had deceived or…[Read more]

I’m not as convinced as @thebuz, but this line stands out:

The System works, work The System. It’s your only chance.

Initial meaning is fairly obvious, but it could be taken as a different type of directive. Work The System and maybe you’ll be able to creep around the side of the facade.

To answer Buz’s question: @confuseddude (aka Andy Jenkins)

Could it be someone else entirely? It feels too easy and obvious no matter which side you come at it from right now. Hostess in Black indicated that the current Resistance was a game, which could point towards a new, third faction. We have no way of knowing if there are more people on board with that right now though.

The woman @mamatato spoke…[Read more]

Part of the audio mention that these “strangers will become your brothers and sisters.” There was a strong sense of familial bonds running through the iConfidant event and @bcbishop‘s Joyce note mentioned something about being connected through bloodlines or something similar. Clear through-line there between everything all pointing back to OSDM.
