[ot][wrong][spam][crazy] mc soap opera idea
mc soap opera idea It's such a relief to find this stupid show iZombie which keeps holding zombies as something you could be and referencing things but is really stupid. Would like to make a show where people instead implant each other with mind control chips. In the show, the woman ends up playing a role of a "psychic" for the police department, which is cute I guess. Dunno. The psychicness would be because you get random experiences of other people as the borg virus uses your brain to hold them during inter-borg struggles, or somesuch.
Right. There'd be lots of talking zombies. Liken in iZombie, they talk human languages, but not really, because they're all keeping zombieism secret. There's no need to keep it secret! Nobody believes it anyway and our cultures are all set up to keep things that way. I'm imagining lots of people who talk about their fervent secret mind control implantation habits. Maybe it could be like alcoholics anonymous.
Briefly I thought of a crowd of rats beating zombies around as if they were worthless. Since they can't squeak the way a rat does, they just moan "braaaains" all day and mess the community up. But zombies are badass and don't care in the slightest if they're beaten around. It doesn't help anyone heal. It's badass to not care if you're hurt, it's a cool trait that's held.
Mind controllers anonymous "Hi, my name is 3179184. I've been part of the local drone hive for about 4 months now
... "Larry, I caved. I implanted an entire community with mind control chips, and they feel like part of my body again now, I want to send them to spread ..."
"3179184, I feel your pain. Be strong. I can send some drugged activists to keep your implanted community confined. We're going to get through this. We really are. Hang in there."
Some of my mind parts are curious how to make an actual story. The states of mind around this don't seem big enough yet to write a drawn out story, and i'm not sure they ever would be, but we have lots of machine learning language models that could help out ... Feels like it would work better if I cast the models as stemming from a horrific research project or such, which then relates to fact and fiction overlapping, since the models are clearly in the real world ... Maybe this story idea would make more sense to me if I imagined that some of the characters were real. How would I respect possible real people, when I'm likely to guess without understanding them at all? This is something I value without compromise. Maybe I could start with clearly fictional characters, and figure out how to respect them better ... of course when you're in that "paranoid" trance you think everything's about you ...
Zombie walks up to mind controllers' anonymous. Zombie: "I ... was mind controlled to pretend I'm a Zombie. I've infected others."
Better idea. Mind control victim: "So, I understand there's no such thing as mind control, right?" <giggles strongly and practicedly> 317894: "Ha! If there was no such thing as mind control, how would we have our meeting?" Larry: "Are you okay?" Mind control victim: <enters a tranced out daze>
317984 sends nanites into MCV's brain.
317984: "They suddenly think it's time for them to be programmed or something. It's like they're just waiting, receptive." Larry: "MCV, it's time to wake up!" Mind Control Victim: <shakes their head briefly> "Sorry about that!" Larry: "Wow, it worked!"
Mind Control Victim: "Nice to meet you all!" <takes a chair> 317984: "What happened just then?" Mind Control Victim: "Just when?" Larry: "You asked a question, a couple of us talked, and then you stopped moving until I told you it was time to wake up." Mind Control Victim: "What ... did you just say?" 317984: "They need you to talk about what they said, separate from what you said. They're brain is seriously freaking out."
317984: "Is it incredibly important that we pretend to be mind controlling you after you wake up?" A red light starts blinking on 317984's forehead. Larry: "317984, your intrusion detection is going off." 317984: "Damnit!" Mind Control Victim: "This is very frightening. You're going to kill me, I know it. I'm calling the police.
Mind Control Victim: <slumps in chair> 317984: "I've calmed them. They're just following a program, right now. It's presently trying to alter my memories. Larry: "Anything I can do? Should we call those police?"
317984's light stops blinking. Mind Control Victim: <starts stirring> 317984: "You're very powerful. Your brain hacked my circuitry by how my nanites responded to it." Mind Control Victim: "Tell me I'm powerful again and you sure won't want it to be true." 317984: "Sorry." Larry: "Welcome to Mind Controller's Anonymous! What's your name?" Mind Control Victim: "Mind Control Victim."
<possible content left out during difficulties looking up what an aa meeting is like.> ... MCV: "I just can't stop mind controlling people. I don't even try. I walk up to them and they either do what I want, or terrorize me, every single time!" 317894: "Oh my god do I know what that's like."
Larry: "It sounds like you might be having a delusional psychotic break or something. It's a way to keep victims more controllable." MCV: "FUCK YOU. Ohmigod did I just say that?" Everyone frowns at Larry.
317984: "It is really hard when you surround yourself with mindless slaves and interwind your neural processes with their community behaviors forever. It is really really hard." Mind Control Victim: "I know, isn't it? What future is there for us?"
317984: "We have a future. We're turning it around. Keep coming and we'll show you. You need a sponsor. Larry's a good sponsor to me."
... Grug: "My name is Grug, and I'm a mind controller." Grug is a zombie. All: "Welcome, Grug!" Grug: "
... Implant: "My name is Implant, and I'm a mind controller." Implant is an android without skin. All: "Welcome, Implant!"
Rebel Worker 2: "My name is Rebel Worker 2, and I am a mind controller." Rebel Worker 2 is holding tapes labeled "lost time" . All: "Welcome, Rebel Worker 2."
Here i'm a little stuck around nearby reality. I'd like to bring in more ways of mind controlling people, but mostly I imagine them fictionally as done by hackers, and I think of this as a hacker list. So I wouldn't want to cast hackers as mind controllers. Meanwhile, we have facebook and social network political influences. That's hard for me because of the don't-talk-about-boss stuff. Which is likely misleading.
Let's switch to "human trafficking" or "slaveowning" maybe? Then the inversion can map around how people don't talk about slavery in their own group, only the groups of others?
Slaveowners Anonymous. Mind Control Victim: "My name is Mind Control Victim, and I'm a slaveowner." All: "Welcome, Mind Control Victim." Everyone claps.
United States of America: "My name is United States of America, and I am a slaveowner." All: "Welcome, United States of America."
317984: "My name is 317984, and I'm a slaveowner." All: "Welcome, 317984." "How did you become a slaveowner, 317984?" 317984: "About four months ago the local drone hive sent cyborgs to my place, kidnapped me, installed control circuitry and augmentations, and let me free. Now I can barely do anything but spread the borg." Everyone claps. 317984's neighbors give them hugs.
Jaded Mind Control Victim: "My name is Jaded Mind Control Victim, and I'm a slaveowner." All: "Welcome, Jaded Mind Control Victim." "How did you become a slaveowner, Jaded Mind Control Victim?" Jaded Mind Control Victim: "I was drugged and hypnotised and tapes of commands were played over and over in my ears. I still respond to traumatic triggers from my programming to this day. There are more of us, and we use secret languages with each other to enslave others." Everyone applauds.
Fictional Boss: "My name is Fictional Boss, and I'm a slaveowner." All: "Welcome, Fictional Boss." "How did you become a slaveowner, Fictional Boss?" Fictional Boss: "It was the only way to be competitive. My business would have crumbled and my family starved if I hadn't started enslaving people." Everyone applauds.
Fictional Political Hacker: "My name is Fictional Political Hacker, and I'm a slaveowner." ...
Fictional Cop: "I was deep undercover, working my way up the ladders of human trafficking rings, you know? And they're all run by really powerful people at the top. When my cover was blown I had no options."
Fictional Anonymous: "My name is Fictional Anonymous, and I'm a slaveowner." All: "Welcome, Fictional Anonymous." "How did you become a slaveowner, Fictional Anonymous?" Fictional Anonymous: "My boss was worried about the Anonymous popular hacking group, and hired me to sway people in a different direction. Now I'm pretending to be a huge gang of hackers, all on my own, and crowds of people are following me."

maybe you need to stop spamming one liners - put all this nonsense in one message and be done with it.
That's for sure man. Y'know, you're doing better with the stuff you say. I can try to squish it more, one message is hard ... What message tags get them actually filtered out, I wonder? What kinds of things do people do when they're not posting to lists?
