Hey
Stop me if this is a stupid offer, I'm still trying to figure out how this whole thing works, but
I heard about the whole gate problem, and the whole simulation thing, there's probably more going on too that I don't know about yet
I'm an engineer
You guys might already have a few, but just in case you're shorthanded
If there's anything I can do to help, I want to

I can also apparently do a weird tools thing now so that's
something

edit: if anyone's in the market for crazy experiments in there
you guys glitch the sim when you do your chest thing, right?
anyone tried organizing a group glow-off? overwhelm the system with too much at once, DDOS it into crashing?

i've never been on a farm in my life
the closest i've gotten is some bougie assholes wanting to grow shit on their overpriced balcony or whatever
but grasshoppers suck
the legs get stuck in your teeth

[wittingly]

better than my own legs getting stuck in compacted concrete

they have tofu and stuff too right?
i mean, if there was ever a right time to go vegan
not me, give me the bug steak, but for you

[evocation]

yeah they do
how would your legs get stuck in concrete exactly?

[wittingly]

the race that landed on earth
they have these big like
scrapper ships, they're basically magnets
they rip whole buildings out of the ground and smash them into dense blocks like a trash compactor

[evocation]

jesus christ
why? for resources or something?

[wittingly]

bingo
showed up to strip out our planet, in a nutshell
if it's metal they snatch it, no questions

[evocation]

that's fucked
i guess this place really must be a step up

[wittingly]

You have literally no idea how legitimately stoked I am to be here

straight truth? even if brain robots overthrow everything and take over a bunch of people's brains it's still kind of a step up lifestyle wise

[evocation]

kind of a fucked up thing to say to someone whose brain might get taken over, dude

[wittingly]

hey, I have one of those neural mesh implants too, I'm pretty sure we're equal risk

statement still stands

[evocation]

can we like
not talk about shitty ai lobotomies?
tell me stupid college stories or something

[wittingly]

I could tell you about the time I found a finger in high school

or one of my student's patent idea

take your pick

[evocation]

i pick both
but start with the finger

[wittingly]

so when I was in high school my mom worked 2 jobs, no father in the picture
so basically after school I was pretty much 0 supervision
me and my friends used to break into abandoned buildings and stuff

this one time we broke into this abandoned house right outside of town limits
we were smoking pot and doing urban exploration or whatever they call it now
my friend Dusty opened up this cabinet and found a 40 bottle

with a fucking finger inside of it

[evocation]

[Oh, hey. She can relate to the shitty father thing. But also...]

what the fuck
was it like
full on meat or just the bones?

[wittingly]

full meat
he freaked out and dropped the bottle, glass shattered everywhere, and the fucking thing went rolling across the floor

[evocation]

that's so fucking gross
did you guys just leave it there?
what do you even do when you find a finger?

[wittingly]

well
I was stoned as fuck
sixteen years old
never seen a severed finger before

I crawled out the nearest window and ran like hell

[evocation]

oh my god
that's amazing
do you even know if it was real?

[wittingly]

why would someone put a fake finger in an empty 40 bottle of Hurricane and hide it in a cabinet in an abandoned house?

[evocation]

i would totally do that to screw with some dumb teenagers
it's like when people redo their floors and paint demon summoning shit underneath for the next person to find

[wittingly]

wow
that is the mark of a truly terrible person
I bet they don't return their shopping carts either

[evocation]

oh come on
half of those summoning circles are just made by goth kids trying to look cool
why would someone put a real finger in a bottle and leave it there?

[wittingly]

you ever met a homeless person drunk on 40 ounces of malt liquor?
they're fucking crazy

[evocation]

wait
do you think the homeless guy cut off his own finger or someone else's?
