[This is so dumb, he can't believe he's doing this. But it's come up a lot lately for for a number of reasons and he just needs to talk about it. Okay? Okay.]

is anyone else a little worried about what happens if your world ISN'T deemed worthy of being saved???

like

what if your worlds not all that great to begin with??


it ain't like anyones given out any standards of judgement or anything
but what if you know yours isn't really a good candidate to continue to exist
what if you've already tried before to prove to someone else that your world has every right to be there with limited support from the general masses,
who don't seem very interested in trying to prove to be anything other than shitty??



what if yours ends up on the chopping block?

what happens to you and everyone you know...??

I do not even fully understand how they could judge something the way they claim to be doing. How is it not all simply subjective? What one person might call bad, I might call vacation, you know?

None of it really makes very much sense to me.

But as to what happens... I think probably we disappear. Maybe we won't even know it, really...? Just something that happens in an instant.

[And boy... is that hitting her harder than she thought answering this post might??? She has not remotely dealt with the concept of The Snap, and herself being part of those that were lost to it, but this is... sure making her stare it down a little more than she'd like.]

EXACTLY
exactly
plus to be honest they aren't even very good at figuring out what their own world is
which makes it feel like they should judge our own

me neither
but it doesn't stop me from sweatin the what ifs

that'd be kinda freaky
i mean i can't say its any better knowing you're gonna go
but not knowing?

[That's gotta be weird, and its probably even weirder if you come back from it just as quickly. He knew he was going to die, he felt it. And when he woke up in hell it was pretty easy to process but to just stop existing then exist suddenly again five year later? Ooof]

This mostly feels more like a weird science or social experiment than anything else to me.

I would like to know their criteria for how they choose us, and what they're judging exactly. But I suppose we'll never get that.

Yeah... it would.

[She's glad this is text, because she definitely wouldn't be able to keep the reaction off her face.]

[bad_habit]

yeah other people have said that too, is it weird that i hope for that MORE??

doubtful, can't get a straight answer on anything in this joint
fuck maybe they don't have an answer because they don't even know
ya kno??

[It's one of the reasons he did it, he has too many emotions after the plush thing. He doesn't need the whole world to see how much he's sweating this.]

If we must choose between two bad options, weird social experiment is definitely the better one, I agree.

Aurora is just computer program, yes? She cannot tell us anything the people controlling her don’t already want us to know. And they don’t want us to know anything very useful.

All of it is very annoying.
