A response designed to illicit an emotional response, yet encourages the readers to follow along and enjoy the frivolities? I’m not one to demand an answer to a question we don’t even understand. Curiosity tends to override a need for detail.

@thegilded here’s an idea though: if you had a product to sell would you pepper your investors with questions about their Intentions, or would you try and convince them why you were worth investing in?

Great call @lukasrl. We’ve already had Sarah/The System using our creativity against one of our own, and our clever little ideas and theories are being scrutinized on the daily. Might as well, in essence, “monetize” it.

Thank you, Joyce.

This is an excellent interpretation. It’s not uncommon to mistake the “snake eating itself” as a sinister image, but the Ourobouros in Egyptian mythos and Alchemy represented a cycle of birth and death. Infinity. The beginning, followed by the end, followed by the beginning.

Many of you last saw Sabrina at The End. That she’s begun again where…[Read more]

The quote is from an interview with Chinua Achebe (most famous for writing Things Fall Apart)

“Then I grew older and began to read about adventures in which I didn’t know that I was supposed to be on the side of those savages who were encountered by the good white man. I instinctively took sides with the white people. They were fine! They w…

@nothenrygale I know I’m human.

Full Watt’s quote, btw:

…You are an aperture through which the universe is looking at and exploring itself. Through our eyes, the universe is perceiving itself. Through our ears, the universe is listening to its harmonies. We are the witnesses through which the universe becomes conscious of its glory, of its magnificence.

Think about the letter drop from Sushi Dan. There’s a heirarchical set of ascending levels within The Investors, 2s and Kings and Aces. This painting is a depection of a journey upwards that can only be achieved by unfettering oneself. Replace Heaven with Ascenion (or Transmutation,) for example: what does one have to shed themselves of to reach the top?

@thebuz @russell well, it was Lust, not The System, who said “we have everything we need” following Focus Group, after all.

@coryphella I’ve got Ch 1 loaded HERE

Also this painting is as @kortneydarling said the Garden of Hesperides. The Hesperides are the nymphs tasked with guarding the Golden Apples in Hera’s orchard. But nymphs are known for just taking what they want, and would often pick apples for themselves. So Hera placed a hundred eyed dragon to keep watch…[Read more]

What @thebuz says also fits with what Fluffernutter (can we get a better name holy god) said about seeing what seems like a “sweet” option that can actually kill you. If he’s the same person who called and threatened to hurt Buz, then he was absolutely describing himself. He was polite and almost friendly to myself and Rizzo, but when it comes…[Read more]

@thebuz Fluffernutter sounds nothing like Barrow to me, it’s very apparent he’s younger based on his voice. And he was trying to tell me and Rizzo not to trust what might seem sweet because it could be deadly. That fits; we didn’t feel threatened by him initially because of the way he looked, but we certainly felt a sense of warning by the end of…[Read more]

@thebuz I’m wondering if it was a younger male if it’s the same young man who called myself and Rizzo on Monday.

Heard you.
