@thegilded Yea… This is exactly what we sound like.

Been staying away from this convo for most of the day, but have to agree with @thegilded (and, from an earlier post, @coryphella) here.

The actors are telling us JUST enough to keep us interested and coming back for more. (That includes Terence saying only one person should go to the event.) Same can be said for Mason, and Jaime, and most of the…[Read more]

@chelsea @thegilded – One more what if. What if they’re not telling the whole truth because they know that the whole truth could hurt us more than a partial truth?

If we knew EVERYTHING happening, that could end up doing more damage to us in the long run. Now we’re suddenly implicated.

But if we leave now, we’re safe. And staying is our own…[Read more]

My brain today is full of a whole lot of “I don’t fucking know”, but @thegilded you kind of hit what I’ve been thinking as well. I see three main possibilities: 1. They are intentionally not telling us everything. Why? What benefit is there to them to not tell us absolutely everything?; 2. They are being brainwashed into a whole new line of…[Read more]

@thegilded when it’s increasingly becoming a life or death situation like this is, it might not be that they won’t tell the truth, or are actively withholding a secret because they’re being dishonest, but rather that they cannot tell the whole and entire truth in good conscience.

They’ve told us the only truth we need to hear right now – get…[Read more]

@thegilded I disagree, Sean. There is substantial risk at play. Whistleblowers often end up with the whistle jammed down their throat. You don’t have the whole story, and they may not, either. Stephanie didn’t have to tell me every last thing that happened at the compound, and Miles sure didn’t want to give details, either. It doesn’t change…[Read more]

@thegilded and @russell

I’m not so sure about this, guys. You are forgetting the core piece of all of this that Stephanie raised.

What if this isn’t theater?

We have been given leaks from DLB and Small Dog Lover showing us that the truth — that we are now in a cult — has been sandwiched between the lies of immersive theater.

I’ve spent a…[Read more]

@thegilded and @russell have hit on very important points. For people insisting this isn’t theater, they’re doing it in the most theatrical way possible. Why not give us specifics of what went on in the retreats? It’s all vague allusions. They’re like the villagers at the beginning of a horror movie warning us to “stay away from that place.”

I no…[Read more]

@mike!

I see your sus and raise it with a SUS.

I present you this:

DARREN BOUSMAN, eh?

I would have posted earlier BUT I couldn’t tell if this was an accidental mess up or if it was an IG matter, I had @thegilded look into it and was waiting for the verdict. That is until the actual Darren Bousman called me…[Read more]

@thegilded I’m hoping the “chat” will involve spiked nunchucks and a glass of whiskey for the pain

What in the actual fuck went down in the last couple hours? Everything is redacted. Are @thebuz and @thegilded keeping things from us? Things beyond the usual mod duties? And why does @kasch have access to @thebuz‘s email? That seems a little SUS to me…

@thegilded did someone accuse you of breaking that trust? @thebuz was very vague about what happened.

@thegilded Yes, exactly. Something is up with this guy. He’s got a Skype call with Stephanie planned right @kasch? Is that still on? Do we have someone keeping an eye on things with that to make sure Mason doesn’t try anything?

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

@thegilded, thanks! But… I am not known for my grace…
Haaaa… see what I did there… sorry, could not resist!

Alright Noah, that was one hell of an evening I won’t soon forget. You know where my heart lies, but I appreciate what you do on at least one level. Hearing that he compensated @thebuz and @thegilded also cheers my heart because I know they deal with A LOT as mods.

I know @mamatato got pulled aside at one point, and I’m sure she’ll share her…[Read more]

@coryphella “Burns away not what we are, but all that we are not”, I believe.

@thegilded Aren’t Horace and Daddy Sinclair the same person?

So for those of you that don’t know me, I was an original Tension participant. I haven’t been too active on the Lust forums, but I found this particular activity to be very inspiring and thought-provoking. I would like to get to know more of you, so I typed up some responses to the posts today. Please don’t take offense to any variations in length…[Read more]
