    Short answer to question in the title if you need a tl:dr

    She was arrested for letting her boy decide for himself where to wander about.

    But most of the article has nothing to do with that.

      You caught me. I was trying not to smile while recording the voice section, but you can hear me smile a bit, because of how utterly round about the article is. I wanted to stretch the reveal as long as possible, because just saying it plainly would have been a Mastodon post. But I wanted an article. So I filled it up with a bunch of bullshit.

        I’m a dumbass. I didn’t realize it was your writing. I would have given a more considerate critique. Interesting to see what you were intending. I put it behind a spoiler tag in case anyone wants the full effect.

          I was trying to make a filler that is somewhat related to the story at hand and that points the reader at a direction of some kind of philosophical discussion here. Like I was comparing my work to the situation in Georgia. And my personal experience to that situation. As to show how insane the whole thing really is. Maybe I over-indulged myself with the filler. Now I look at it and it is kind of funny to me that I wrote so much of it.

            Hey, OC is hard. You’re doing better than me. I don’t post anything at all. Way easier to react to others’ work.

              IDK sometime it feels not enough to just share a link to a story. It feels like I need to make sure people know exactly how I personally see the issue at hand. Hell I made 2 projects each of which took me more than 3 years. So it is 6 years only for 2 projects. Maybe I’m just exceptionally megalomanian…
