@mumumusings – I don’t recall those images being released? Maybe I missed them early on or something?

Anyone confirm this?

I wanted to see if the 36 from the status has anything to do with the number of people selected.

List of who’s said they’ve been accepted so far –

1. @lasalle
2. @jay956
3. @nking

Same reply as @izryn and @mumumusings. I will not be deterred! I feel like after whatever happens tomorrow with @lilmsfancpants, I may really need a new confidant.

@mumumusings The “Called it!” was more regarding the “incoming Perisope from @julierei” than her being selected. Just know how much Sarah Sinclair puts into absolute loyalty, and no one is more loyal in the face of conflicting evidence than JR is. Sure, anyone (even myself) could be picked. But I’ve met Sarah. I’ve seen what she looks for in…[Read more]

@mumumusings Oh trust me, I applied. I applied with the truth, that I’m the best candidate for what they’re looking for. Working in marketing and advertising, I’ve got plenty of experience making things that are awful for you and your brain *coughtrashyrealitytvcough* look enticing and worth your time. If they want someone who can help make The…[Read more]

@mumumusings They might look insane, or outright villainous, but nobody ever thinks of themselves as the bad guy. Does the OSDM (or whoever they are) really think they’re doing a good thing for the world? If they just want to make a profit, there are other, easier ways to do that.

@mumumusings:
“At first, we built it off nerds from the internet. Then theater go-ers. THEN THE WORLD.”

@mumumusings
I should have put #sarcasm on everything after I wrote “We’re all being manipulated”

And yeah I understand lines are being drawn, but for me it seems like I’m facing the choice between a giant douchebag and a shit sandwich!

Wow, Noah admitted to having “too many?” Doesn’t sound like him to admit losing control. Now, he’s been arrested – and not only that, but his wife is pressing people to contact her if they hear from him? I’m starting to think he didn’t write a word of that website. It’s almost like he’s Sarah’s “brand,” and she’s the one writing all the content……[Read more]

I’m not sure any of us would make the same exact choices in the most real of real worlds as we do in this OSDM/Tension/Lust world. If we want to play the game, as it were, we have to take a stance within the parameters laid out, or find some wiggle room or a compromise that won’t play us right out the door.

If we push too hard we might find…[Read more]

Good point @bcbishop. During Tension I was approached by so many people who wanted info on alternatives to the OOA (ie. BOS) but when I’d ask them if they were willing to jump ship, the majority said no. The reason wasn’t because they didn’t see the allure of a shadow organization like BOS, but that they were “afraid to miss out” on some…[Read more]

@mumumusings … exactly what @mike said. No one could have said that more perfectly.

@mike @mumumusings @coryphella Love, support, friendship, encouragement. What you three just did? That’s the shit that builds a community and holds it together. Thanks for that. /feels

@mumumusings what @mike said. that.

@mumumusings – you stop talking like that right now! You’re more of a leader and stronger than most of us. You did not get to come to LA to attend any meet ups, any parts of Ascension, or anything, yet you stood right next to all of us and all of that that whole time and NEVER complained. You shared something SUPER personal with III on a public…[Read more]

…I stand on the same cold, shitty passive-aggressive midwestern ground as @mumumusings. But not too close.

@mumumusings – You said something way back on page 1 – YES. Thank you. I’m standing with you. I was actually going to say something earlier but didn’t want to steal @julierei‘s thunder tonight…then it turned out to be all about this.

I realized that I had been posting to try to say to people GUYS IT’S NOT ABOUT WHAT YOU GET IT’S THE COMMUNAL…[Read more]

@mumumusings well said!

@coryphella got a unique experience during Tension on her visit and she lives half a country away.

I live in San Diego and I’ve done more events than most people here.

Cody, a member during Tension, got to meet Addison in the park for an event and he lives in Canada.

@mumumusings had a dead drop delivered to him in St Louis

Don’t be too quick…[Read more]
