Hotdog's Inaugural Address (un:hotdog)

[oorah]

So I guess I'm the fucking mayor of this shithole now. Pretty funny for a guy who never voted in his life. I don't know whether to thank the assholes who voted for me or punch you all, but I always was better at punching than saying thank you so you can guess where I'm leaning.

I'm taking this to mean the Natives are washing their hands of us. They don't want to be responsible for what happens next, but they still want to reap the benefits if we manage to make progress with the Sound Eaters. I get why they're scared, but where I come from death is always permanent and patriots lose their lives every day so the people back home can be free. Even if we come back, that doesn't make our sacrifice mean less.

Alright, enough of that bullshit, I'm getting to a point. All of us are going to pool our resources and Soundproof the Communal Houses. I want as many done as possible before the new people get here. We're constructing a Prison too which needs to be fully soundproofed and tough enough to keep shitbags inside. If there's anyone or anything you're worried about coming here from your world, you can let us know HERE. Mike is putting together a book so we'll all be ready. If you want to help, drop off materials at the Clinic, which is always looking for volunteers. Stay tuned for us rehabbing the Hospital too. We need anyone who knows any fucking thing about medicine and repairing androids or whatever that shit is.

No one does anything alone, there need to be witnesses to everything that happens in this crater. If you go out to the Sound Eaters: Bring your device and record. We don't know if the memory loss from the Room is permanent, but it's better not to risk being wrong. We need all the information we can get on those things. I'm doing a trip when the new arrivals get here out to Monster Island. If you want in, let me know.

That's all for now. Hotdog, over and out. [ threadjack to ur hearts content ]

you're saying that stuff like you expect people to listen to you [ And he doesn't know anything about being a leader. ]

i am going to do what i want :)
you should have started off with that as as your speech first

[oorah]

[ frank can't tell if he's being trolled or what but he's learned in this place a lot of people don't GET how things work. not like he does. kill it with kindness??? is that still a thing ]

what are you doing?
anything you need help with?

[norms]

[ He knows exactly how things work. It's the same as back home, and there, he hadn't trusted anyone to do anything that wouldn't inevitably get him killed. Egil certainly isn't going to let some stranger do that. Also, he's just a brat. ]

things
if you wanted to help you should have asked before declaring a bunch of stuff

[oorah]

okay then let's try this another way
what's wrong with my ideas?
do you disagree with soundproofing houses? that's for everyone's safety.
so is the prison. some nasty things can come here if those sound eaters are any clue.
and everyone who gets brought here should see them. so they know what's at stake.

[norms]

i don't disagree with wanting to be prepared
but you don't know if we're going to be here for that long
what if we have to move or run???
that's a lot of time wasted on something that is fine the way it is right now

prison usually means putting people in it
are you putting people or monsters?
keeping those things close by is stupid

[oorah]

it's not right in town. i can take you to the prison site it's farther out.
we're not trying to put sound eaters inside it's a precaution.
aren't there bad guys where you come from?

also you never heard that phrase
keep your friends close, keep your enemies closer?

and if we have to run we gotta rebuild everything anyway. why not be as safe as we can here?
