Cherry feels like running away, but Port Promise really is starting to feel like home and it’s still too cold for that shit anyway.

And besides, there’s nothing quite like feeling like a little kid in trouble to motivate you to finish the chores you’ve been putting off. This really would be the perfect spot to build out a kitchen—that is, if Tyler still wouldn’t mind helping Cherry make it happen.

Kinross Correctional Facility Prison Inmate Jonathan Stewart Roden is serving at 20 to 8 years state prison term for robbery, according to his lawsuit filed on Nov. 9. 2017.

U.P. Breaking News found his photo on a site that collects MDOC photos – however the inmate’s photo is no longer on the MDOC site. U.P. Breaking News is concerned about the fate of Inmate Roden after the Michigan Department of Correction has removed his photo and background from their “offender search” page. This is highly irregular – even parolees are listed.

This prisoner – while outlining the rotten food – said he was already the victim of retaliation by prison officials.

Please if you have any information on this prison inmate – let us know. We hope for the best, but Michigan Department of Corrections is notorious and legendary for its coverups including inmate deaths. The MDOC tried to blatantly lie there was a riot going on at Kinross but U.P. Breaking News audio tapes forced them to admit it happened.

In the lawsuit, Roden  – like many other inmates before him – outlines details of the horrid, egg-filled, maggot-infested food served at the notorious Kinross Correctional Facility in the tiny eastern U.P. town of Kinross, MI. The site of a riot last year and repeated ongoing allegations about Trinity Food Services Group that is serving inedible, non-nutritious and vile food at Kinross Correctional Facility.

Year 2 — Late Winter CHAPTER 9: BUGS 

It might still be winter but it’s officially Cherry season! And I can’t think of a better way to kick off the new year. 

[whyeverr]

Aaaaand, speaking of encounters...

[approaching footsteps in crunchy snow]

Tyler—?

[whyeverr]

Tyler is going to try and speak with Dawson again, one-on-one. 

Hint taken: Go home, Cherry. 

It’s fine. Cherry’s fine. Everything’s fine.

[whyeverr]

“I’m Dawson. And you are...?”

...

“...not much of a talker, clearly. That’s fine! I can enjoy my own company.”

[whyeverr]

[uncontrollable laughter]

“Motherfucker!” 

[splat]

[whyeverr]

“So what’s the deal with the guy living over there in the shipping container? You two ever cross paths?”

“Couldn’t tell ya! I’m just passing through...”

...

“...Although... I did hear that there’s a weird cult out here somewhere, led by some Jesus-looking motherfucker. I’d keep your guard up if I was you.”

“Riiight...”

[whyeverr]

“I’ve been obsessing over shit that doesn’t— I don’t want to say it doesn’t matter, because it does. We need a name that tells people who we are and what we’re trying to be, and a mission statement and shit... But it’s abstract. It’s long-term, big dreams, aspirational thinking. Octavia is right, we need a plan.

“Every stranger that crosses our path is an opportunity. There aren’t enough of us left in the world to not think of it that way with what we want to build. But it’s also an emergency—a complete fucking stranger shouldn’t be underestimated, even if they do seem harmless. I believe that most people are fundamentally good, and I like to assume the best of people until they show me otherwise. That’s my outlook, but I know that’s shaped by the safety and privilege I’m afforded just by being a cis dude—who, yeah, can do twelve whole push-ups.

“I don’t have all the answers yet on what the plan should be. But I was wrong to get mad at you for bullshitting your way through an emergency. You kept yourself safe when no one else was around to help do that for you. And your safety matters more than any opportunity.”

[whyeverr]

When Cherry first landed in Port Promise, they wanted nothing more than to hunker down for the winter in relative safety, taking full advantage of the generosity of their new neighbors before setting off on their own again in the spring.

But nothing Cherry could take from them could ever amount to what Tyler and Octavia freely give—of themselves, their homes, their time. So it's no surprise that Cherry started forming much stronger attachments than they'd anticipated.

Dawson's unexpected arrival made a lot of things clear for the founders about what they need to do to do their job better, but it also made plain what Cherry had been starting to feel for awhile now: They don't want to leave Port Promise.

This place—this community—is special, and against all odds, there's real potential here for it to grow into something great. Cherry doesn't want to miss out, or worse, be the reason things fall apart by bailing on the team! And that means staying put—officially!—to help New Promise grow.

[whyeverr]

It's getting a bit late to start the dumplings, but that's alright! Cherry is happy to come over early tomorrow to help make those too.

[whyeverr]

“...It was just the first thing I could think of to try and scare this guy off, but I could tell he didn’t believe me. So when I saw him again I thought just joking about it would break the ice, but... something changed—”

“The power dynamic changed because you were there with Tyler. All of a sudden you weren’t so helpless and alone. Maybe there really was a cult. So he backed off.”

“Yeah, well, I’m pretty sure Tyler hates me now.”

“Hey. You did nothing wrong lying to protect yourself. If he really wants us to build a community, we need a system in place. We can’t just fly by the seat of our pants every time someone stumbles across one of our doorsteps. We need to get our ducks in a row!”

[whyeverr]

Cherry woke up clear-headed with the realization that they could really use some advice. A clean load of laundry would be nice too. 

And at the moment, there’s really only one place to go for either. 

I just hope Tyler isn’t there...

[whyeverr]

"Okay, but like for real, Tyler. I asked Octavia if I could bake cookies while we were waiting. And found out you guys are already out of sugar again?!"

"Oh... [innocently] Are we?"

"There are only so many bags of cane sugar left in the world, you know!"

[snickering]

"I can't sustain this habit! You're going to have to start making your own supply runs, or switch to honey or something!"

"Honestly, it's not a bad idea... Beekeeping, I mean!"

[whyeverr]

“Hey, kid. Mind if I share your fire for a bit?”

Definitely not Tyler!

“Uh, let’s see... [dryly sarcastic] Why not? Why wouldn’t I let some random ass dude just—”

“Cool! Thanks.”
