Midcontinuum Spearmint

I didn't think we'd have a day when we saw a sysmed post and go, "well, back to being valid." It's a great feeling. It's better when we have positivity on our timeline.

Also, we may have COVID. It's a good thing we got vaccinated. We thought it was a cold. Reanna doesn't understand because yesterday, the doctor said our lungs sounded clear. (COVID-19 causes pneumonia, which usually involves fluid in your lungs. Our mom says it's the vaccine that made it mild. She tested positive and apologized for possibly giving it to us.)

The best part is there's a group of us stuck in one area of the headspace to prevent spreading. We have our own rooms; we're just stuck in the same place. Logan was like, "I need a drink." We're not old enough to drink, so sparking juice for us.

Content warning: This post talks about suicide, specifically, people encouraging it.

Sysmeds on Twitter are starting to suicide-bait. We learned about it from a tweet by Cambrian Crew (who was calling it out.) I looked to block likes and retweets. It was a picture of a noose, which reminded me of Chester's suicide. My heart stopped racing minutes ago (and so has the shaking.)

Seeing the picture drained our energy, so I don't think we can focus on school well enough. I'll try to do a quiz, though.

Those cowards hit a new low. They're doing something illegal. In our state, intentionally driving someone to suicide counts as negligible homicide. I hope they realize what they're doing before someone gets hurt (in other words, attempts or completes suicide.)

There's another Plural Code! We just saw it as a post with a carrd that Stronghold System retweeted. Trinda& (ThatsSoTrinda) made the Twitter post and carrd. (These words are hypelinked.)

This Plural Code uses emojis to condense system information. Trinda& said it's not replacing the MuC. We'll make a post using it soon.

I'm making a Google document detailing system information, so I can post it on Twitter. We don't have much schoolwork today, so we can work on it.

We're going to have three (maybe four) documents:

1. Mint Phalanx's information
2. Diamond Phalanx's information (including headspace info)
3. A document aided by Hungry Ghosts' Plural Etiquette questionnaire.

"You haven't posted in four days. Where are you?" Reanna said as though I run my source's account. Why does she ask ME about Mike's lack of activity?

Also, I'm also noticing I have memories before the phalanx, during my development. The day after Chester died, I sat at her grandparents' table that morning. I didn't want to eat because I was sad. I remember Reanna's spring ritual her sister photographed.

But pre-phalanx memories aren't that weird here because the character headmates have them via backstories. They also remember their development.

I opened Google and said, "let's see what I'm up to," and Reanna was like, "Mike!" So, from now on, me looking up Mike Shinoda will be called "seeing what I'm up to." As a joke. Usually, she looks him up to check on him. She's done that since she got worried about Mike after Chester died.

My source doesn't have an account here, so Reanna feels better about me posting. (Her first concern with interaction on our deleted Tumblr was accidental libel.)

Also, we're going to try to crush some dry oatmeal. We got our wisdom teeth removed yesterday, so we can't chew much.

 It's Chazzy's birthday. He should have been here. He should have been here to celebrate. He should have been here to celebrate twenty years of Hybrid Theory, and he should have been here through COVID-19. I miss him so much.
