You are allowed to completely change as a person by the way. You don’t have to stay trapped in the versions other people created of you.

I just love how each of the main OIAR Staff are parallels to the Archive Crew.

Gwendolyn "Gwen" Bouchard and Jonathan "John" Sims are both snooty academic types who put on a facade of stoicism and arrogance to hide from their fear. They are both forced into leadership roles they are very unprepared for. They are reckless and unwilling to be vulnerable. But they secretly care about the people under their supervision and want to do what's best for everyone.

Celia Ripley and Martin Blackwood are both sweet and bubbly people whose personas hide calculating minds capable of carrying out long manipulative plots. They are both driven by love: Celia needs to support her son and Martin his mother. They both lie about who they are and this guilt weighs on them enormously. They show signs of web. They wish to be strong and reliable but are actually driven by fear.

Alice Dyer and Timothy Stoker are funny, charismatic extroverts. They have exes turned close friends who they are secretly pining for and little brothers doomed by the narrative. Their frustration with their jobs and the deaths of their friends is expressed as anger at their bosses. They are both noble and possess a fiery protective streak. They also possess a rare power known as the braincell and their dating lives are insane.

Samama Khalid and Sasha James are reliable, curious nerds. Their curiosity is their downfall and they are taken out of their narratives extremely early. They are sensible and over qualified for the job they are currently in. They were exes with their co workers but remain on good terms. They caught onto the fact that their job was a conspiracy earlier than all of their coworkers.

ive invented (note: dubious claim) something i call the bear diet which is mostly fruits and vegetables with fish as the main protein source and something like once a month you eat a few hyperprocessed foods of your liking because that is when you, the bear, raid a dumpster in the suburbs

Twice a year in Hawaii the sun passes directly overhead and objects cast no shadow. It’s a phenomenon called “Lahaina Noon”

I hate that when you’re stressed enough your body just starts falling apart. I think it should realize you’re already stressed and don’t need that and start functioning better actually
