One might think i'm alluding to the v/la joke when i said "I am thinking about them in the shower and before bed and like drafting them in my scum pts and such" but what its actually mpre about is the 4 drafts of the libraryverse opening post that i still have littering this pt
In my absence you should say something like "man it must be so humiliating for hellbooks to have to go and transcribe that post in her monastery" and when isis is like "whoa why did that sound like a hellbooks post is she coaching you" well ill leave you to figure out the response
i really don't get the transcribing thing lol
and yeah since it seems like i might (?) be getting in and te thread is souring on you a bit it's prudent to do the distancing thing

I personally think the shift in my posting has less to do with being scumread and more with me running out of my medication and my pharmacy being late on refill but I'm going to choose not to say that because it seems unfairly manipulative and also maybe the haters are correctly identifying some element of my subconscious that I don't know about

yeahp. : ) well it might mean i have to endgame and maybe you might want to rest assured that i'll lose one of those. and i did not and it seems like i might not be able to until at least monday. eff the pharmacy.... so yea earlier today i had the thought that maybe i should ask you whether or not youd like me to replace out. i was worried that my continued lack of being able to get meds and also general pain and listlessness would possibly portend a future period of ill or maybe just not-so-great health. but im doing better tonight and i think i'll keep toughing it out : )

The thing about 138 is that the post tris towneead is either town lamist or scum lamist and Shea said itt he doesn't play lamist
my takeaway from the extended exchange was that shea scumread a different aspect of the post than the part that tris townread and neither of them really were about the post as a whole
Experienced a shocking and brilliant twinge of melancholy from this, lets just like ruminate on all the ways we're doomed to misunderstand each other and how text mafia inherently brings that part of human interaction to the forefront
thinkign about how this was my favorite post i made this game and no one reacted to it at all (sorry skitter as the person with sole access to my "behidn the scenes" (omg bts reference) brain youre bearing the full brunt of my Needy Side)
o skitter..... will i ever stop having to apologize to you....

what if we all decide on a coalition as usual but don't actually submit it, and then we let the people in the coalition vote amongst themselves for one player who they think shouldn't be in the coalition, and one they think should be, and we make the swap. or alternatively they vote for no swap
YOOO This is such a good idea and maybe they could perform some kind of group activity that frames the way that votes are made? like perhaps we can give them all some sort of "role" and these roles can all kind of be like.... "investigative" but in subtly different ways? idk just a thought
NO WAIT HOW BOUT THIS HOW BOUT THIS ok so lets say we make a coalition and then datisi reveals one member who is not part of the coalition and then we choose to swap or not to swap and maybe goats are involved somehow? idk just a thought
this was my second favorite post i made this game so far

Or you could wait and pressure me until my true nature eventually blossoms forth, leaking game relevant (?) words like the bleeding guggenheim tiktok robot
as a final bit of directors commentary i was really happy at being able to reference the bleeding guggenheim robot because thats something ive kind of wanted to do in some form of post or tweet or real life conversation for at least eleven months. and this suddenly came to mind when i was making this post at the time and i was like oh yeah i gotta put that in there which maybe makes it come out a little forced

so i just had the thought that it would be funny to advance the idea that your posting is generally so good as to merit monks that go and transcribe it into copies like they did with important books before the printing press. and it was also a follow up on the idea of doing frivolous v/la. and it led into this other thing that amused me where you and i cant be in the thread at the same time in like a tragic tale of eternal separation by some sort of heavenly mandate. obviously i did a poor job at communicating the full idea of any of this bc it was, as are basically all of my posts, a self indulgent and navel gazing exercise
also i am also easily tempted into being a little pestful and annoying to you in the game thread (like when i was needling you into using my avatar etc etc) which i think has much less to do with being scumpartners and more like "ok i see a really cool and self-assured person in the distance so lets go and be a little annoying to them" i guess im kind of imagining how people go in front of the buckingham palace guards and try to make them laugh except what im doing is actually more normaler and less weirder than that i swear
i promise that me bussing you was a next level tactic to engage fire into going back and solidifying their own townread on you as they try to explain it to me

I think this post gives hellbooks more credit for "having a plan" than she usually does.
I find myself being unusually offended by this even though I can definitely see how it's very easy for someone to always take me at face value as an "Irrational Actor"
I think one of the best route here is if we both make it into the coal -> I get blasted -> town is steered easily into the conclusion that i kind of sacrificed my longterm equity to get myself into the coal because scum was on the outside looking in -> they hunt around in the fun car and get jack for shit and hopefully by then its winnable
Any strategy has to account for the fact that my standing here is really in the dumps
Also im doing like such a bad job at distancing from you, sorry

well it looked for a few minutes yesterday that i was somehow maybe gonna snake my way into the coal but i didnt really have the energy to capitalize on that momentum. i guess ill try and do what i can to salvage my reputation but i think that might simply be a task im impossibly behind on. well i guess there was that thing about "if you snow only one person..." and i guess that person is tris for me. i really do think i should have repped out when i did tbh, got so mad at shea being like "hellbooks is lurking" despite the fact that he kind of doesnt know about my health situation (by design so i think thats just me being self destructive behavior)
