    I did not refer to your “personal story” as fiction. I referred to your “story of god” as fiction.

    But you know this.

    Again with the game.

      Christ, there’s no game. You misunderstand one thing I said and immediately jump to me playing games – which I must be honest, only shows you have a tendency to read a fictional and paranoid layer into everything you hear.

      I have no such layer. I say exactly what I mean, sometimes to a fault.

      I say this with a true concern for your well-being and absolutely nothing beyond that: have you sought professional help? I strongly think you should. Most people don’t immediately think strangers have ulterior motives as strongly as you do. That’s just not normal, and there are a few mental issues that is a strong indicator of. Given our very limited conversation, you jumping repeatedly to that assumption is not usual.

      I’m happy to continue our conversation, but maybe we should talk about something else that has nothing to do with religion, since that topic seems to be too emotionally fraught for you. Maybe we can chat about your favourite tv show instead? I’m really into Star Trek: Lower Decks right now. I also like Resident Alien, and the live-action One Piece on Netflix. What do you think?

        When you pretend to misunderstand me twice, that’s pretty gamey.

          I’m not pretending. If you think I misunderstood you, perhaps I did.

          I’ll keep saying this until you understand me: There. Is. No. Game.

          Good lord, I have much better things to think about. Everyone does. Stop thinking the world revolves around you, and please, for the love of Pete, stop thinking anyone has the mental bandwidth to think about playing games when we’re all just trying to figure out how to live our lives.

          Are you constantly playing games, or are you just trying to get through every day?

          The red pill idiots are lying to you. I don’t know how to get this across to you, but you’re not important enough for people to be playing games with you. We’re all trying to figure ourselves out. Think about it for five fucking minutes.

          What’s your favourite serial show right now? I’m on the fence between Lower Decks and One Piece.

              It’s awesome. It’s like if Star Trek (all the best serials) and Rick & Morty had a baby that wasn’t full of itself. It’s got regular cameos from TNG, VOY, and others, and the main characters did a crossover live action episode in Strange New Worlds last season. It’s on Paramount+.

            Mm, it’s the alternating of claims of innocence with accusations that really sells it.

            Forget it.
