Hello, everyone! As you've probably noticed, we've been having a few problems - I mentioned earlier that something got knocked out of balance, and we had to recalibrate, but in a few days we should be able to drop the emergency measures. Please be aware that there is an incoming storm, class four. General orders for that kind of thing are to report to management for any known threats and follow instructions, but so far what's known is "that might be a little annoying" and "hope it isn't". Theoretically it'll probably be related to the holiday, I think, because a large group of souls focused through the needle of a pin on one thing can sort of shape a thing around them. That's sort of a really inaccurate way to put it on the technical side of things, but I think it's the easiest way to understand it! At any rate, we'll know more once we're in the thick of things. Please take care as usual; resources aren't exactly what some of you seem to think they are, and we had to expend rather more than usual in the past month or so to keep things with a few of you steady.

its consenual

[compendiem]

Oh. Then it's okay.

[sotenbori]

yeah, see
adults have fun in all kinds of ways

[compendiem]

How come when kids fight, and it's consensual, it's bad?

[sotenbori]

whats wrong with kids fighting?

[ hes not a role model ]

[compendiem]

I don't know. People make a big deal with others get hurt or cry or whatever.

[sotenbori]

well if theyre so weak theyre gonna cry when they lose they shouldnt be consenting ta fights

[compendiem]

Crying doesn't mean they're weak. I used to get punched and never cried.

[sotenbori]

what does that prove?

[compendiem]

That they're not related. Never mind. Kids probably fight for important stuff like being the line leader or whatever. Things they thing are worth fighting for, even if they're weak and cry about it after they lose.

[sotenbori]

everyone loses sometimes
cant get better without it
but
acting like a baby when you lose is still stupid

[compendiem]

I'm talking about four year olds.

[sotenbori]

thats ridiculous everyone knows four year olds cant have real fights

[compendiem]

To them, it's a real fight.

[sotenbori]

why are we even talking about this
werent you the one who wanted to know why it was bad if children fight
im so fucking confused

[compendiem]

Collecting opinions. It's interesting getting to know what people think about topics they like.

[sotenbori]

well if you ask about children lead with the fact theyre four! dont go hiding the ball

[compendiem]

Isn't childhood usually 3-7 anyways?

[sotenbori]

no???

[compendiem]

What's childhood to you?

[sotenbori]

baby to 18

[compendiem]

18... I think I'm biased because I'm closer to 18 than you are.

[sotenbori]

[compendiem]

I'm grown up. I'm 21.

[sotenbori]
