I think when I am done with high school, I would like to study zoology at the university. It is almost the same as being a Magizoologist except I will not always be studying magical creatures. I would like to be able to study very many creatures. It sounds very lovely.

I've got a job for an interested tech. I'd love something like this (both the functionality and some thought towards aesthetics) but as far as I can tell it's not commercially available yet. I'll pay $200 plus cost of materials.

Alright. I need everyone to level with me.

Most embarrassing video on youtube about you or doppleganger-you. Go.

Cuz this? What is this lady even doing with my voice? What is this song?

Fen is here and she would like to meet you. I guess she is not mad about how I pretended to be her daughter.

I am not sure how this is supposed to go. I have never introduced people. I think she won't mind a couple days to get used to things. But she said she wanted to, so I thought I'd tell you.

How comfortable are you letting some of the nerds that I've become friendly with into the Library?

Is there anything besides berries to feed the Pokemon? I gave Rocky some Cheetos. And John Jr eats garbage. Or should I spot some cash to Lillie?

Lily Luna Potter & Annie Odair:
Hey, witch chick. You still want in on our business? We're calling it Wood and Waves.





John Murphy:
( not triggery, but possibly uncomfortable for some )

KADY:
Any updates on that potion you're twisting my arm to take?

Well, I'm not entirely sure if I've cracked or if this is another form of merzost, but I'll play along. I'm Genya and I have just arrived. Would anyone please point me in the direction of the Sun Summoner and her tracker boyfriend?

Heading to Mexico for a few days.

Don't call me.

I got a delivery job at Andy's. I can bring home food any time.

I learned a very important lesson in the reasons why you should not google yourself.

Hi. Soo, I just wanted to say I'm sorry. For, you know.. half of your family disappearing. Kind of know how that feels like.

How's my favorite Shrubwitch doing? Worked out your what yet?

I have a piece of tech here with your name on it. Would have given it to you earlier, but I was driven through the barren wilds of Texas against my will.

I have been contemplating the nature of humanity and bringing back good person lessons. Quite frankly, I thought you were all mostly likely walking trashbags that would give me ample research opportunity for my own personal project I've been working on. And while many of you do in fact do terrible things, I have been humbled. You're not completely awful and your potential for self-sabotage and suffering doesn't amuse me any more like I thought it would.

The problem is you, as humans, are very psychologically fragile. So if I give advice on how to be good for the sake of benefiting you both in the every day and for your eternal salvation, likely it'll be met with the same result as when I gave perfectly reasonable good advice in an effort to make you feel insecure and give into your worst instincts. Reverse psychology is a heck of a thing.

After much thought, I've decided instead to give Bad Person Lessons. I feel this will be much easier to grasp. So without further ado, your first bad person lesson.

Your Intentions Matter.

Now, I don't want to get into a slippery slope of what ifs. Nor do I want to even try and get into the complicated algorithm and point system that weighs each and every one of your actions. We'll just keep this simple.

1. If you do a good deed for ulterior motives (like one-upmanship or a crass attempt to improve your Good Person Score®, for example) than the deed is not really good. Your motives should be pure and you should expect nothing in return for your good deed.

2. Conversely, if you do something bad, it will almost always be bad. But sometimes your intention makes it less bad than it would be if you were acting out of pure selfishness and evil. But only sometimes.

This concludes your first bad person lesson.

FILTERED TO FRIENDS, FAMILY & COWORKERS*

On Friday, I'm going to be hosting a small barbecue here at the Cottage. Some of you may know by now but yesterday evening my wife, Fen, arrived here in Tumbleweed and I would like to have the opportunity to introduce her to each and every one of you. If you cannot make it, as I know this is short notice, I understand and hope that we can arrange for her to be introduced to you at some future point in time.

I realize it is a school night and I will probably regret this when I have to be up in the morning, but who else can't sleep? Anyone want to Netflix & Chill? Did I use that right?

[ FILTERED TO THE BANK ROBBERY CREW ]
Additionally, we should probably discuss the timeline for our heist.

At the risk of appearing too philosophical: It's nice how open learning is here, especially when people from different worlds teach other. If I had an attention span of longer than five seconds, I'd consider going to back to school.
