Involuntary RPG Journal Entries

I originally write out this huge thing (because who am I?) but I decided to scrap it. I already did the long emotional goodbyes with the people that needed them and I think you've had enough of my walls of text. You're welcome, my Vol family.

If you want to chat after this, feel free to e-mail can reach me at masonjlaughlin@gmail.com. I promise I am much nicer in real life than when I'm stuck in a prison for a year.

See you later, folks.

Has anyone talked about getting a memorial together for the people that we've lost?

[OUTBACK]

How do you guys feel about coming together one last time before we have to go?

I'm out.

Taking a nap real quick and then a shower and then I'm coming back down. Does anyone need me to bring anything down from their rooms?

[TEAM ROOSTER]

( spoilers under the cut )

I need Odd Bjarne, Sadie, trackers and anyone else that're willing to help search for bodies survivors people.

Who hasn't checked in?

Well that was the best news I've had in a while.

If I receive any drunk texts tonight I am releasing giant lizards in your bedrooms.

[filtered to hunter and cati]

Let's have a kiki.

Co-curricular suspension for 3 weeks. No pub night, no "officially sanctioned events," no OUTback. Hrm.

I've got Stonewall on the brain recently (I can't imagine why). Anyone want to learn about it and discuss it stop by my room around 8 PM on Wednesday. Sound good?

P.S. Go ahead and remove me from all your Vol Squad filters.

These fuckers messed with the wrong Vol Vols.

I can't wait for you guys to see what we have cooking up for you guys in OUTback.

[OUTback]

I got the okay to throw the school a party that we're in charge of planning. I'm thinking drag show, crazy lights lights, hxc dance music, booty shorts, all of it. We're going to start talking about it more formally tonight but go ahead and start thinking of ideas of stuff you want to do.

Does anyone want origami of their team bird?

We're getting "people" hacking into our IVI devices now. Just so you all know.

[Men of 1991 Students of 1991, Student Council]

It's been months since we've had someone in Student Council to represent our year. As one of the larger classes, I feel like this is something that should be remedied with all the craziness going on.

I think given the great job she's done with the video response to the Vol Rising attack that Yael Shafir would make a good replacement for Prov's the vacant seat.

Well, some of us are approaching obsolescence (myself included).

[OUTback]

How're we doing, guys and girls?

What a bunch of fucking morons.

This is going to be rambly and incomplete, still having trouble staring at a screen for too long without my head pounding. Here goes...

Look, I get that not Valentine's Day feels like it's the most important thing in the world right now, but really it's a bullshit holiday. It's the most heteronormative holiday that reenforces the 'correct' role of men and women in romantic relationships. Men are supposed to act like the hunter-gatherers and come back with some sort of gift for the women in their lives. And because it's trumped up so highly we have women people getting depressed and bitter about not having someone. And where do the homosexual relationships fit into the gender binary, hm?

If you like celebrating it, great, knock yourself out. But if you're feeling anxious to adhere to social pressure and stigma associated remember that it's all superficial and arbitrary.

oh my god. they're doing it.


THEY'RE DOING IT.

[super bowl pre-beyoncé]

GOD FUCKING DAMNIT

Well, in the spirit of the Superbowl being this Weekend Monday (I will never get over that). A list of the 50 hottest NFL players of all time. There's a lot of good things on this list, but the first mistake is the fact that Tom Brady isn't number 1? And how is Alex Smith not higher up on the list?
