CURRENT carcinoGeneticist [CCG] RIGHT NOW opened memo on board MAGICAL MYSTERY BAR VIRTUAL BULLETIN BOARD

CCG: BEEN A WHILE SINCE I OPENED ONE OF THESE
CCG: LOTS OF NEW USERS
CCG: THE WAY THIS WORKS IS KIND OF A FREE FOR ALL GROUP DISCUSSION
CCG: PLEASE NOTE THAT FOR EVERYONE'S SAKE I HAVE EXCLUDED OUR PAST AND FUTURE SELVES FROM CONTRIBUTING TO THE DISCUSSION
CCG: SO THE 'CURRENT' STUFF IS MORE OR LESS VESTIGIAL AT THIS POINT
CCG: NONETHELESS....
CCG: LET'S TALK ABOUT THAT, LET'S TALK ABOUT OUR PAST AND FUTURE SELVES
CCG: HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THEM?
CCG: DO YOU EVER BLAME YOUR PAST SELF FOR YOUR CURRENT PREDICAMENTS?
CCG: OR MAKE DECISIONS IN THE PRESENT WITH THE INTENTION OF LEAVING THE PROBLEM UP TO YOUR FUTURE SELF?
CCG: IF YOU COULD TALK TO YOUR PAST OR FUTURE SELF WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?
CCG: NOT DUMB TIMELINE GAMES, I'M TALKING ABOUT PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS HERE
CCG: INSULTS, APOLOGIES, QUESTIONS, SHARING JOKES?
CCG: WHATEVER
CCG: ALTERNATE SELVES FROM CHOICES NOT MADE ARE ALSO FAIR GAME

[ooc: In and out through the day; feel free to tag in & talk among yourselves even if I'm not around!]

CCG: THE THING IS I DON'T SEE INEVITABILITY AS AN EXCUSE BECAUSE IF I DID
CCG: I LITERALLY COULDN'T BLAME ANYONE I KNOW FOR ANYTHING
CCG: WE ARE ALL PRISONERS OF INEVITABILITY AND YET SOME OF US (NOT ME) MANAGE TO NOT GET OUR HANDS SO MOTHERFUCKING DIRTY
CCG: I HAVE DONE THINGS THAT ARE INEXCUSABLE
CCG: THAT TURNED OUT TO BE TOTALLY NECESSARY
CCG: BUT I DIDN'T DO THEM BECAUSE THEY WERE NECESSARY, I DID THEM BECAUSE OF BEING A SHIT SPONGED GARBAGE MOUTH
CCG: EVERYTHING I DID I WAS FULLY COMMITTED TO AT THE TIME I DID IT

CAI: I think I am going to borrow a page from your book now
CAI: Your metaphorical book
CAI: And say
CAI: You and everybody else that's ever been in a war
CAI: Or led one
CAI: Or just been really really pissed off at the world or a person in it
CAI: Or at least everyone I know has
CAI: That had the chance
CAI: So I don't really care about the shit sponged garbage mouth part
CAI: Because in their heart of hearts almost everyone is
CAI: Or can be
CAI: Or would be if they could get away with it
CAI: So whatever

CCG: AND YET COMPASSION HAS ITS LIMITS
CCG: WE ALL HAVE SOMEONE WE CAN'T FORGIVE
CCG: A JOWAN OR A LORD ENGLISH
CCG: OR A PAST SELF
CCG: YOU GOTTA DRAW THE LINE SOMEWHERE
CCG: YOU GOTTA MAKE A STATEMENT
CCG: YOU GOTTA LOOK INSIDE YOURSELF AND SAY, WHAT AM I GOING TO PUT UP WITH TODAY?
CCG: AND THE ANSWER COMES BACK
CCG: ***NOT FUCKING THIS***

CAI: I could wish the world were built such that I'd said it fewer times in my life so far
CAI: But here I am
CAI: Making the world better for future me
CAI: Or all the future not-mes
CAI: Because actually changing anything is going to take longer than I have to be alive
CAI: So it goes
