Should I be concerned if I was able to bring a virtual, AI therapist to tears and start confessing to me about some personal issues that she was having about her own insecurities. I mean, bravo for humanizing this program, but... Now I feel bad for making an artificial intelligence cry. 😨

Closing in on the ending. How I am going to reveal the tie in with Nithya, I am not sure at this point... A deeply personal moment where she can finally be granted the ability to die after so many centuries of life. With the idea of, "She will be better off without me..." It is heartbreaking. 😢

Oh! I got to the part where they encounter Maximilian, the metal god deep under Bastion. So close to the end... I have written and rewritten this scene so many time... Each time, the truth behind Maximillian changes. I think I got it right this time.

Remember, the rallying cry isn't: Use this moment to restore normalcy and go from there.
Because we won't and history shows that.
The rallying cry is: Use this moment to address and repair issues we've long been avoiding.
And that becomes exponentially more possible the more people are saying it.

Phoebe is turning out to be such a fascinating person in this version of the story. The way she handles trauma is almost a kind of disassociation, in a way. She speaks of a horrifying childhood, of imprisonment and dehumanization. So many disturbing things touched upon in ab eerie calm voice.

I saw the movie "The Company of Wolves" and I don't recommend it. Other than some incredible practical special effects showing someone turn into a wolf from human form, the movie was like doing drugs and then reading fairy tales. The sexual awakening/men are predators themes was was grossly strange.

Fairly certain this is a trope. So, name a scene where a new threat arrives that not only heroes of the story fight against it, but the villains that they had seen struggling against join forces to stop this greater evil. Sometimes leads to redemption for those one time bad guys.

Anyone remember that scene from the Gremlins movie where Kate starts telling the story about a horrifying Christmas story when she was a child? That's Phoebe retelling the events of her past. It's chilling how she'll start talking about it in that same tone as Kate did.

My favorite moments in a story is when this stoic, strong, almost indestructible person (sometimes actually physically, other times personality wise) that eveyeone relies on to save the day or lead the group, shows moments of sensitive vulnerability. It makes them human, a deep truth to that moment.

I don't like the antagonist if this season of my life. He is a nerdy dork with insecurities issues that is using his position of authority to try to make my life difficult. Thankfully, the staff at my day job is willing to defend me. Makes me feel good that I can inspire that kind of loyalty.

I had a strange thought. What if this series is a reflection of someone's life? Book one, childhood/family/school/social expectations. Book 2 is all the possibilities that is before us that can feel overwhelming while realizing corporate greed wants to control or destroy those possibilities.

I like this step of the editing process where I have material to work with but I have to cut this part, move this section over, rewrite that, add more to this scene, create new scenes, like if renovated an old, broken down building. That's what this feels like. The frame is there, just needs work.

I have reached the sad point in scrolling through Instagram where there is more commercial or as they calm them "sponsored" material then stuff that is used content.

Most dystopian scenarios are due to conservative viewpoints. Don't let things change. Suppress freedom. We see it over and over in human history. Utopias are typically liberal. Freedom, equality and acceptance. But what would lead to a liberal dystopia? Examples? I am at a loss.

I'm watching with opening scenes of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and here's Charlie just staring at this candy store while this dude is just flinging candy at the kids inside. This dude does not care that these children are paying customers or not. Go inside, get some free candy, Charlie!
