So, Tuning Towers. I'm hearing that there's something spooky going on there. Should I be leaping into action to find out more about my mysterious past, or should I be steering clear for fear of being eaten by monsters? I'm hazy on the details.


And here's a lighter question, so that this post isn't entirely about life or death. I'm building a symbolic simulacrum of the human condition for a class. The skin's going to be assembled out of pages from fashion magazines, and the head is going to be filled with crumpled-up printouts of Fox News political articles.

What should I put in the chest cavity?

voice; you're way too good at this ART STUDENT thing

No monsters, just a terrible buzzing. We weren't able to find the source of it, but it seems the worst on the ground level. But that's just my experience, other people may have actually found things and aren't saying anything, it's entirely possible.

I have no explanation for this

[two_stones]

I had a feeling the "most of us were eaten by monsters" guy was pulling my leg.

[ladyofluminosity]

Oh him? Yeah, I saw that. He's funny.

[two_stones]

He strikes me as trying a little too hard.

[ladyofluminosity]

He can, but I get the impression he doesn't get out much, so we're kind of kindred spirits in that regard. He seems harmless, though.

[two_stones]

There are those who have suggested that I get out too much.

[ladyofluminosity]

Oh? How so?

[two_stones]

Some of my past art installations have been known to offend the sensibilities of the more uptight generation.

nooo it's a trap

[ladyofluminosity]

Oh, you do art? Can I see?

[two_stones]

Sure! I still have some pictures form before it was taken down.

[Click. Immediately closes without giving her brain enough time to fully process what it just saw. Too bad it's been burned in there.]

O-o-oh. That's...

[two_stones]

It's a meta-commentary on American sexual repression and the commercialization of female sexuality.

[ladyofluminosity]

Not what I would have said, but I believe you?

[two_stones]

I always support alternative interpretations of my work. Death of the Author and all that.

[ladyofluminosity]

I guess whatever makes you happy?

[But why the dildos? She'll never be able to unsee that. So many different colors.]
