"Magnetic tape. Everyone thinks it's analog, but it's digital. ...Nothing about humanity is binary." --MAG 65. this blog is so i don't put spoilers on my personal. rule of thumb: jon = jonathan sims the archivist, jonny = jonny sims the writer/performer. main is @howdoyouwritenonnnstop and personal is @lets-put-this-here. post in header http://iamalivenow.tumblr.com/post/173940230909/hey-kids

this really is out of nowhere but i just remembered that absolutely hilarious scene of intense awkwardness between jon and tim in s1
tim, from a publishing background: so, boss, i just wanted to let you know that you keep making little verbal typos in these statement recordings and like, i realize they’re negligible in the grand scheme, but we are trying to build some kind of functional professional database here so it might be a good idea to try and re-record a couple of them when you get the chance?
jon: literally fuck off. i have insomnia and i am being haunted
tim: cool cool cool cool cool cool right okay yep. gotcha. i’ll just. put a sticky note on it or something.

i *think* there was something somewhere from RQ--discord? reddit?--about these being actual mistakes in writing/production. can't say for sure, though. this is a very vague memory and i'm at like a 23 out of 100 on the fully-grasping-TMA-interconnected-elements scale.

i was about to be like "haha peter lukas is so dumb for picking the guy whose main role in the narrative is being in love" but then i realized that martin's love is what makes him lonely, so he couldn't rescue himself from the lonely by thinking of people he loves, which was the solution presented in all the statements we'd heard about people being trapped in the lonely. so instead i am just sad

Would “The Man Who Wasn’t There Do Not Interact”
A) prevent The Man Who Wasn’t There from beckoning me down the stairs
B) act the same as telling The Man Who Wasn’t There to go away
C) it depends

You know what’s a shame?
That Georgie “don’t be a stranger” Barker, Tim “statement of Joe Spooky” Stoker and Gerard “I’m dead serious” Keay never met in canon and roasted Jon together
