Warnings: Talking about the most recent event, so memory loss stuff.

does anyone else think maybe we got too close to the truth on something this month? pretty sudden for a ton of documents to go missing, and then a ton of memories, and then nobody can talk to each other long-distance.

i dunno. i feel like it's the first thing i'd want to do if someone found something really important. question now is how do we figure out what it was?

[donnie NO--]

not always. look i'm not saying i know it's one of those things, i just don't think we know enough about the scope of the bullshit they can pull before we rule them out. do you know how many dudes i've punched that turned out to be made of molten wax? shit's fucked up.

I cannot refute that assessment.

PERHAPS
It's something else. Mass hallucination? Or a Matrices-type situation.

[lesbeau]

it's never a mass hallucination. like trust me. that's the kind of shit we say to make people believe they didn't see a cosmic horror but it's never that. what's matricies?

Movie about some woman who escaped this synthetic dream situation that all of humanity was forced into. Don't worry about it

Regardless, even with all the data collection I've engaged in since my arrival, I'm still nowhere near quantifying it. There are so many unknown variables that it's difficult to single out even rudimentary patterns

[lesbeau]

yeah welcome to most of my problems. i've been here years and it doesn't get simpler. the rules are a guideline here for how this shit works, not a carving, and we're not the ones with the tools. if you get what i mean.

what i mean is we don't make the rules.

[semilethal]

Hm. So in order for any progress to be made, we either need a redistribution of the tools, or a redefinition of the rules.

[semilethal]

Bars. I didn't even do it on purpose. I'm amazing.
