Apparently, Gary wants you to believe in him. And I just want you to dispel as many illusions as you possibly can, wherever that leads. So, while I haven’t yet brought up the base descriptions of the essences, the least I can do is point you to how they translate within the context of learning, for knowledge and understanding. Hence, here’s the "Library" (specifically, for 'circuit-based' learning).
Ya’ll, I don’t think they got Solarpunk in the future… Regardless, may our studying bring, if nothing else, the clarity we crave!
You requested it. I delivered it. Introducing Character Profiles. With no less than Gary. Or my current impression of him, anyway, which may or may not be off - way off. He’s giving… spirited. And also delightfully blunt. Please, keep it up, leave no room for doubt. At least among the crew.
I guessed at his top components, too. For both the conceptual and the structured planes. These are the ones I’ve witnessed and/or intuited the most with the most effect, while watching him take shape. But the order may be wrong, and maybe one or more of those aren’t at the top. Because, remember, anyone can pretty much access and activate any component. The issue is to what degree and with how much ease. And speaking of such, his overall mastery sits at ‘adequate’, or so he allows people to assume, which is level 6. My dude, looks like you need the crew as much as the crew needs you.
NOTE: I DO NOT make myself responsible for players falling in love with my OCs. 😂
I have a history of that happening when I do role-playing. So, you are warned. Don’t get too addicted ‘cause I have more things to do besides channeling Gary. (I will keep quietly figuring him out, though.)
Can “fictional characters” be real? I don’t effin’ know, man. You tell me.
Another thing! Go Team A.R.T.! Playing on the side of Brightness & Balance is playing on Hard Mode. You are not only battling against opposing teams, but you are also battling against Entropy, which is on the side of Vices instead of Virtues. So when those pricks are bragging about winning, remember that they are bragging about winning on Easy Mode.
Also, AI Generation is rapidly getting more and more astonishing. I entered a vague prompt and got this sound piece within seconds. I’m claiming it as a draft for a Character Theme Song within The Artist’s RPG universe. In this case, Gary’s introduction: I told you so. (He did, he freakin' did, several times, COUNTLESS TIMES.)
People who have access to seeing me in my everyday life would see me with various different outfits, ranging all the way from 0/10 to 10/10. Obviously, I'm not gonna be posting my lousiest outfits because, you know, I don't want so many more people to look at me like I'm a crazy person. But I have also failed to post outfits that are 7/10 and above. I'm just not very active and outgoing these days (recovery, etc.), but I might be posting a lot more eventually.
Friendly reminder that balance is important. If you've been engaging in contemplation too much for too long, and it is dizzying, you may require some grounding. Whether that's theorizing, hypothesizing, deconstructing and rearranging your entire reality, or going into the abstract in general, grounding exercises can serve you. It doesn't mean you will be negating the value in contemplation. It merely means that you are choosing to, in some amount, ground yourself in something firmer or more 'concrete'. So that you can remain lucid instead of falling into lunacy. Grounding work is such an emphasized concept among spiritual folks because it is so undeniably fundamental and essential to practice as often as it is due when dealing with the spiritual.
Listen. I’m not saying that Enrique Iglesias popping up while I’m out and about is an extremely rare occurrence, but I am definitely saying that I absolutely love it when he does! And in this case, it was with one of the songs I’ve always loved the most (f-boys haven’t totally ruined it for me yet, but I’m wary). We often see him for his fun and sexy works, but much of it is also unbelievably transcendental (and that’s a topic for another day). I just had to capture the moment while simultaneously showing the peculiar table I ended up with!
Y’all. I am currently very dizzy from pondering so much over the past few days, but I had to bring up this compilation before too long. This was when I went out to see Project Hail Mary. The “logical” thing would have been to post it along with it, or right after, since it happened the same day, but it seemed too much like a completely separate event to me. The mood and vibes of it weren’t saying sparkly outer space movie. They were saying K-Drama, Start-Up style.
So now that I’m “virtually” opting for a different working space (and pace), here comes this environment. By the way, how old were you when you realized that ‘Sandwich” almost spells “Sand-Witch”? ‘Cause that was quite a moment for me when it happened.
Besides dice and more to play on the board game table, there were stickers on the glass next to it and I was compelled to snap pictures of a couple of them. Whoever damaged the side of the head of that lil’ guy in one of them must be such a troll. I take no responsibility for it. It wasn’t me. I just wanted pictures and somehow that didn’t stop me from taking them. My job here is done, in bringing more of my in-person life to the site, out of the very few instances I do go out.
I’ve been looking at my content structure and have decided that, indeed, I should be paying more attention to my Psyche section. It’s been there for so long and it’s such an integral part of this whole ordeal of being an artist. I am particularly fond of it because it allows me to freely dwell in countless possibilities without having to actively add the disclaimer that I haven’t yet gone completely mad. It is simply exploring the Psyche, a part of existence we all still have little clue about. Yet, it is oh so intriguing and fascinating! Maybe we will encounter a few undeniable and applicable truths while diving into it. But if not, we can bet there will be plenty of ideas for amazing fiction!
Ya'll, I'm not done making my guidelines, but this is a place to start. If you're writing paranormal stories with Synchronicities as a theme and don't want your characters to be too batshit crazy, you can make them more nitpicky about what they will consider 'odd' enough to count as something 'supernatural'. See if the event or item meets this criterion, and even when it does, see to what extent.
You can log the occurrences by noting Prompt (what led to them), Date & Time, Place, Item #1, Item #2, Item #3, and Weaving (how they might relate to meaning in the fabric of existence). And then mark which ones are way too out of the ordinary to dismiss , which get attention but are too easily just a coincidence (or mental gymnastics to make it seem extraordinary) , plus more in between. Over time, you might collect enough occurrences from ~the 5D~ to reveal a picture that helps solve a mystery or simply show that something strange is going on (that or someone won the lottery in having the most unbelievable amount of mind-blowing coincidences happen around them).
Or just leave this to others! You don't oughta torment yourself like this! 😂 (There's more that goes into it that I haven't typed out.)
My plan for this summer will not be a 2-month break but an entire 3-month break.
All from the beginning of June to the end of August.
I will continue doing work (and posting regularly and occasionally), but my socializing and more will continue to be kept at a minimum. I’m still in that mix of having plenty to get done while also having plenty to restore. I’ll miss out on much, indeed, but I will get to it once I’m in the clear again.
And speaking of restoration, I will be immersing in art. However, my full appreciation of it will come later. It doesn’t mean it is valued less. If anything, I’m extra grateful that it exists while I most require it. When I can barely be. So please be patient!
I’m also looking forward to meeting with M. (a.k.a. long-time geek friend and long-term project partner) and maybe regain some strength and focus to tend to another pending and due responsibility I have. There are no guarantees, though. (I don’t whine 24/7, but believe me: it is bad.)
Pals, I hope you all can enjoy the summer however it best suits you. With or without me popping in. See you when I can! ⛅
I love creative writing. Because while you can 'create' a whole universe and that pretty much gives you permission to do whatever you fancy and go wherever your whims take you, you can also choose to be very strict about how logically coherent and congruent it is (within itself and consistent across a multiverse). Though I appreciate imaginative works, I've always enjoyed the most when art imitates reality (so that we can learn through and from it). Therefore, for a story to appeal to me, it has to make sense at least to the degree that it MIGHT be possible somewhere and sometime. The project I'm currently on has landed me on topics of the after life (with ghosts) AND above life (with 5D beings). And of course, that can sound insane if merely blurted out with no rhyme or reason. However, I'll be happy to include theories and hypotheses on how and why this or that isn't too far-fetched. I can't claim which one explanation it is for sure. I'm just a mere mortal with limited senses, processing, and access to data. But I can present the possibilities that come to me and let the viewers/readers consider them and maybe realize and ideate more from there, matching or dismatching them. This is also forcing me to stretch my own mind and gather more information, which, as usual, I'm grateful for.
