Someone just called me from a No Caller ID and told me to “back off.”

…try me.

I like this prompt. Thanks, Noah, ya damn goof.

What did I learn? Morgan asked me that too. “What do you know?” And I guess I didn’t know why he was asking me that at first…and I didn’t have an answer for him. But of course I do.

I learned that I was letting my emotions get the better of me so frequently that it was damaging relatio…[Read more]

Looks like someone also wants me to be angry that my support for both Bryan and Morgan is being silenced.

Today felt like we’d all found ourselves flung together at last. What’s happening?

Having a vague feeling of clarity is a foreign sensation in these parts. But it does sound to me that, despite the many disagreements we’ve had amongst us, we’re all on the same side. Our own.

Huh. I don’t even know what context this puts Mike’s instructions for Brad and I to set those meets in. The fuck is happening. And if Russ, and Mike for that matter, need help, how do we provide it?

Initial signs point to Noah as the Ace. No Horace, no BOS, just the One God pulling the strings.

Why though? That’s probably a decent question.

Hey pal. Should I shut my office door or…?

I suppose I can’t deny that.

@chelsea yes that’s correct. As far as Russell, or Brad when he and I met, I have no idea where the dress codes came from.

I wanted to amend this post here because I’d left out a bit in the fracas of the past week. Before @bcbishop met with me, I was driving home from work and received a call from our friend Mike who said he’d been instructed to tell me to calm Bryan and tell him I needed him to meet me at 7:15 at a place of my choosing, dressed nice. I was in my wor…[Read more]

Following up here. This is a sketch for her painting. The painting looks like this:

And that is a man’s shadow…taking his place.

Worth mentioning that both last night and tonight Mason was watching videos of actors or employees discussing the retreats. Maybe we’ll see a pattern continue to emerge.

Erika scared the shit out of me, tonight.

We’ve been speculating in Slack about who Horace seems to be taking a dig at in this quote. Noah, Mason, Morgan? Sound off.

I wanted to point out the stark contrast between Dali’s spider-legged, weak elephants and the power of the animal itself. Morgan once referred to BOS as the elephants before suggesting the elepahants didn’t exist. Does this…[Read more]

@chelsea Very valid reasons for resisting change/one’s true self. And unnerving as it is, perhaps we’re being pushed to break free of all that.

@russell yes, I find it extraordinarily inspiring. Just as you inspire me by driving toward expanding beyond the preconceived notions many have of you.

If the people around us are not what they seem, what’s to hold us to remaining what we’ve seemed to be, in turn?

@russell this is the read I’m leaning towards. So If Briarberg’s a lie…then Mason no longer needs that persona. You imply then, that his behavior last night is reactionary?

You have your differences, but he knows you trust him overall.

I feel an urge to tie this back into today’s painting. The symbol we’ve seen many times, the Ouroboros, appears here again. Except this time the snake is dead. The representation of the repetitive cycle, of eternity, is dead and decaying. The song, Mason’s video…he’s breaking free of his role and structure. I see these symbols and videos as him…[Read more]
