idk 😖😖 I think the idea of joining was more exciting then actually joining for me somehow, heh… I go through crazy phases.

Lucille

“…I don’t know,” Lucy admitted. “Hypotheses are hard.”

Her thoughts didn’t make much sense out loud. She watched as two little black eyestalks popped out of the shell in Mel’s palm.

@ellette-giselle Ok good!

Not a Great KP Scare meme but too relatable. Agreed with my mum that I need to get into the doctor again because I might be developing her chronic sleeping issues.

@ellette-giselle

Okay. I’m sorry your head hurts. Have you eaten? Drunk water? Gone for a walk? Snuggled with a pet?

@grcr

Aw. What might motivate you?

@ellette-giselle

I want to know about the specific situation in your story. Vaguely mentioning the Soviets and New York is not painting me a clear picture.

Or I’m just stupid and this concept is not clicking for me. *Cries*

@power for real though

@koshka

As someone who is not getting used to hearing weird politically correct phraseology in Health textbooks, I would honestly like this on a T-shirt please.

Aggghhhh I know, and I don’t even have those sorts of books (all my textbooks are either creationist or old from before the social justice junk)

I should shut up 😅 Okay, never mind all this

I just realized you might still be deciding all this. I’m sorry if this is not something you’re confident on. Questioning dystopian premises is what I do every time I read a book with this stuff.

@ellette-giselle

Meaning? Is America taken over by another country and that country is the one making the laws?

@ellette-giselle

I get that. I was actually saying I don’t see how that’s a viable strategy for a country right after a world war and civil war.

This is the thing I said that I’m most concerned about:

Because you just said family is what the men believe is worth fighting for, and if this is still America and they’re ravaged this badly, w…

@ellette-giselle

actually, there is a bill that got passed by america allowing homosexual couples to have children

I’m not sure what this has to do with my questions. *Mind-scattered confusion* Am I just not understanding the link between this and what I asked?

@rae sorry I’m late lol

Huntress

Gabriel told me to wake him up for the next watch and proceeded to make himself more or less comfortable by the fire. Sniper and Soldier did the same.

I watched the fire for a few minutes before my attention was diverted by some large animal in the distance. It didn’t appear to be targeting us, or hostile…[Read more]

just, like, never mind that it doesn’t make BIBLICAL sense, nothing about that law even makes SCIENTIFIC sense.

@ellette-giselle but they….can’t have children? Biologically?

like yeah adoption is a thing but that’s different (not that I agree with homosexual couples or the idea that they could raise children, because I DON’T, I’m just saying I know of incidents where that’s happened)

@ellette-giselle

Wait, is this still the American government enacting everything or is this another country controlling it? Because you just said family is what the men believe is worth fighting for, and if this is still America and they’re ravaged this badly, wouldn’t they want people to have a fighting motive? Taking family away just makes…[Read more]

@ellette-giselle BIRTHING LOTTERY?!!

That alone just—just—…….oh my gosh I hope the US never, ever, ever gets to that point, because HECK NAW IF THAT HAPPENS I AM REGISTERING MYSELF AS DEAD THIRTY YEARS AGO AND MOVING UNDERGROUND.

I’m sorry, evil government, but no one, NO ONE, is EVER allowed to treat me like that, and if I could I w…[Read more]

@koshka

We’ll see.

That’s the fun of not knowing how your own story will turn out in the end, I suppose. You can’t plan everything. (One side of me wishes it were possible, though.)
