If that cat could talk I wonder what she'd say. If she remembers anything about the other you. If she remembers anything before the moment you met. Is she the same cat in those memories or is she a clone of that clone?
Now that's a terrifying thought. Trapped and completely unaware of it? Think they'll train us to put on shows for zoo visitors or offer safari rides?
she would probably remember traveling with me and also remember dave's sister. i do know that much. but i think she is the same kind of like how we are sort of the same? but she has all of her memories. she identified us right away.
as funny as that is you really do have to wonder. and we kind of already are putting on a show, aren't we? at least for retrospec. that is where things sound kind of awful.
My friend's pet owl acted similarly. It couldn't speak and give us any answers but it knew its owner.
One of those reality tv shows people are so drawn to. If it wasn't invasive and against our will I would wonder who the most popular in the cast are. I wonder how much they really know about us. How long have they been watching? If they have been in Recolle all these years were they aware of me since my birth here? Which brings the thought of test tubes back around. What a mess.
an owl? that's a new one. someone else i know got a rabbit that seemed to recognize him, too. wonder why they remember but we don't yet.
you mean like big brother and stuff. or the real world. i would say there probably isn't a popularity contest but some people are getting hit harder than others. i am almost sorry i brought it up but i think maybe it doesn't hurt to think about it a little more. i am pretty sure they have to know enough about us to know what will impact us the most though.
random, i think. i wish i really knew but i think it is random since sometimes i remember stuff on my own, but then i remember stuff when i am talking to dave or other people. if they had an order in mind that would mean they're controlling our conversations, too, and i am not too sure about that one.
Good point. Makes sense. If they had that much control all of our complaints about Retrospec would be out of place. It would ruin any passive observational research and the entertainment of unpredictability too. Nice to think we can be about 99.99% sure we have our free will.
i guess the one percent can keep us on our toes until then. but if they really are passively watching us then we know what to expect, sort of. (aka not much.)
at this point i am not so much worried about that. but i think that is because i am used to it? or at least i remember it being a thing in my universe, too. space is weird, matt.

Is it random or is there an order they have in mind?
