@wanda102 Dammit, you revealed my superpower!!!! 😉

@wanda102 …Russian, aye?

Last night was so fun! Seeing and meeting everyone was the real treat.

I was a garbage person, who had an adventure in parking, ended up waddling up at 5:45. I was content to idle until 6. The eccentric photographer took photos of my leg tattoos, like on rapid blast. The fierce, Asian woman wanted my ticket. I fumbled around and downloaded it on…[Read more]

Well put, @kevin. I’ll admit I find myself in a curious position. I’ve always sided with OSDM (sp?), HCDI (sp?), and Horace (sure, sp?) not because I cared about Anoch or anybody’s business practices. I cared because they pushed my emotional buttons; that they provided The Experience, which helped lead me down the road of self-actualization and…[Read more]

Awwww… fuck. You’re right @wanda102.

And, Noah said something in one of his videos about making us “less of ourselves, and more of him”.

Prepare to meet your new Noah-esque selves behind door #3.

Close but no cigar @wanda102

10 seconds and 10 seconds only to say what YOU are going to DO with what you know, with what you recently declared. I don’t give a fuck what you learned as long as you do something about it.

I am not going to really DO anything for you.

I never will. I can suggest, show, demand, scream, hug, run around etc but…[Read more]

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]

@wanda102 We’re all going to Las Vegas. 😉

@wanda102 I could literally write for months on this, and still not say everything that needed to be said, which means that there’s a lot more that *isn’t* coming up here, and that some of this might be a little stream-of-consciousness, so bear with me.

OK, so first, nobody thinks they’re in a cult, that’s something that happens to other people.…[Read more]

@maddyxxx Another shout out? I think @wanda102 may have been right about the crush thing. Either way, you sure do know how to make a fella feel special.

Cooking something up for you, Precious. Stay tuned.

@kevin

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.

I agree entirely. I could also argue the other side of it,…[Read more]

@wanda102 For the record, I’m not at all satisfied by Morgan’s answers. I think we agree that he’s charming, and believes in his cause. I’m just not sure that the cause he believes in is what he thinks it is, as you’ve pointed out before. All I know about BOS so far is that they say “We like truth! Boo OSDM!” But, when @111error says that he,…[Read more]

@wanda102 OK, but when you suggest that Joyce/OSDM are so far ahead of us we couldn’t possibly understand her grand plan, isn’t that complacency?

It’s absolutely important to remain skeptical. Are you skeptical of Joyce? Are you as skeptical of Joyce as you expect other people to be of their chosen faction mascots?

@wanda102 Yeah, but at some point, you can use that line of thought to justify anything at all You can say “Well, yeah, Joyce knew you’d think A, so she did B.” If you thought B, well then she knew that too, so she did A. If you tried to be clever and think C, no dice, Joyce is too csmart for you, she already anticipated that. It basically…[Read more]

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]

@wanda102, you chose a side and are committed! Don’t let anyone shame you for participating in this experience the way you want. You are in the minority but that’s totally cool. Not everyone enjoys following the crowd, myself included!

@wanda102 She was awful interested in getting that phone from @kipsie. I can’t help but wonder if she’s off getting punished for failing in her task, rather than sipping cocktails on a beach. Joyce might not be enjoying her hiatus at all.

@wanda102

It’s good to be back. When shit goes down, I know I’d want to have you as an ally. *cue Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring music

@wanda102 If I’m ever not civil to another participant, I would hope someone would smack me upside the head, and let me know. Even when we disagree, the other participants are the reason I want to be here. Shit’s gonna get heated, but it should never get personal.

@wanda102 You make some really good points, and you’re absolutely right that we shouldn’t jump to the conclusion “OSDM BAD, BOS GOOD”, just because someone showed up telling us what we expected to hear about OSDM. I happen to think she’s likely to be credible, but you’re absolutely right that the “damsel in distress” bit is more than a little…[Read more]
