@cutiepie3000 ‘s beautiful art is single-handedly the strongest motivator for me to keep writing on the days my writing slumps are at their worst. I adore you!

Saw these tweets and it reminded me of Voyeurs immediately

I'm guessing the other Beatles knew about the George Harrison affair, but did Patti? It seems like she knew the details about some of George’s affairs and even supposedly walked in on him and Ringo's wife. (Also I have to say I love when other people joke about it & MC either ignores it, sidesteps the topic, or rolls her eyes in response lol).

Unfortunately, women's intuition knows no bounds. Pattie wouldn't know the ins and outs of it, nor would she be able to legitimise much, but the eyes never lie!

Have you seen any players guess something that you were planning for chapter 84 part b and you just had to smile and go 'how interesting...' while internally sweating bullets or are we all fumbling in the dark here?

there was one thing that comes to mind that i got back in early april that genuinely made me sit back and contemplate the predictability of my IF, only for me to realise that it was one in a couple dozen extremely incorrect theories. but i do love the guessing game aspect of everything, even in a very short-term sense where the intentions of characters are concerned

and you guys are doing your best! there isn't the MOST to work with just yet in all fairness

truly all i want is a The Bodyguard (1992) Moment while the mc is playing the hollywood bowl on a hot early 70s night after being threatened by the killer just a moment where the ro scoops up a mc wearing a metalic scifi bondage bathing suit and carries her away to safety and romance don't ask why phyllis is the one doing this i'm sure a reason could be found

i fear any "the bodyguard" moments will more than likely come from inspector nielsen, friend

i would really love a vince playlist... songs like what ophelia or other songs he's written sounds like and also the general sound of his voice :>

Done!

I played through this demo in one day, I love it! Sorry if this has been asked and answered but do you keep a dev log/announce release dates? Curious of when we can expect the next chapters and the best way to know when they drop

I don't keep myself to a timed-schedule, but I do try to put out new releases as soon as I can! On my main account @jcffbuckley I do keep a progress bar under the 'scapegoated updates' tab, so that is the best way to know in real time how things are doing, but if you shoot me a dm or an anon, I can provide a written update too!

I'm glad you love the demo so far!

[scapegoated-if]

Thank you for your welcome back messages (and your insane patience)! My heart is so full, you guys

hiii i just went through your book recs pinterest board twice over to get all of the names of the books written down (excited to read irène specifically) but i wanted to know if you could also recommend any not mentioned there?

Ooo... Franny and Zooey by Salinger; Stone Butch Blues by Leslie Feinberg; Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom; Tender Is the Flesh by Agustina Bazterrica; and I am currently reading Madonna In a Fur Coat by Sabahattin Ali as well as George Harrison on George Harrison by Ashley Kahn (go figure).

Break is over!

Theory time: Leon was into Vince and something happened between them! Then either Leon messed it up or Vince is straight and freaking out about it which is why their relationship soured👀

this sounds like wishful thinking to me... you guys are shameless

I just read this article and thought of you and this game:

Drug runs for the Stones, a love triangle with Joni Mitchell: has Chris O’Dell had the music industry’s wildest career?: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2025/may/06/chris-odell-drug-runs-the-stones-love-triangle-joni-mitchell-george-harrison-

Some interesting parts:

“Keith [Richards] sent me on a drug run,” she recalls. “Back then, it was just called being an assistant.” She joined in with the debauchery, and one comment from Richards sticks in her mind all these years later. “He said, ‘You know, Chris, you can keep up with the guys.’ I thought that was a compliment then. Today I don’t see it quite that way.”

>

But working for Linda Ronstadt in 1975 was a breakthrough, allowing her to be “in charge of everything” for the first time. She also brought some much-needed sensitivity to the often boorish and brutal world of tour management. “One time before Mother’s Day I went to Linda and asked, ‘Do you want me to send flowers to your mom?’ She said, ‘I’ve never had a tour manager who asked me that question.’”

>

“Joni Mitchell came on the tour and we got caught up in a bit of a love triangle with Sam Shepard. I’d already been sort of seeing him, and then she had a thing with him. This dude was married and had a wife back in California! So what was wrong with us?” she says, disbelievingly. “From that came the song Coyote about ‘a woman at home’ and ‘another woman down the hall’. I am that woman down the hall.”

As O’Dell remembers, the drama unfolded over just a few days, with Mitchell debuting the song at Gordon Lightfoot’s home during a stop on the tour (an incident captured in Martin Scorsese’s 2019 film Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story). “I had heard she’d written this song and I thought, ‘I don’t know if I want to hear this!’” O’Dell recalls. But in her typical easy-going way, O’Dell seems to have been able to patch things up: “She and I became really good friends after that.”

>

She gradually lost contact with many of the male rock stars she worked with, but is still “very much in touch with the women”.

I especially find it interesting how she views things differently today compared to when was in the 70s, as a reflection of how things have changed from a woman’s point of view (being flattered by “not like other girls” vs viewing it more critically). Apparently there is an upcoming documentary about her.

I have been trying to share this anon for DAYS since I saw it appear in my inbox, but it wasn't working on my phone when I tried to post.

Thank you for sharing this article, I hadn't heard of Chris O'Dell until I read this article which is saying a lot; I have engaged with so much George Harrison content, so I'm thrown. I highly recommend everyone checks it out and keeps and eye out for the documentary... I will definitely be watching.

bald penn anon here. glad i made u laugh <3 its ok i will love that silly man balding or not

Why did this make me tear up

[scapegoated-if]

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this but while playing a lesbian you can still flirt with Penn? I don't know if that's intentional for some reason or not but it struck me as odd

It’s because Penn is just a girl…

Sorry couldn’t resist. I had no idea that was happening and I will look into it. Please more people confirm if this is your experience too — I have played with my MC as a lesbian before and I didn’t notice

[scapegoated-if]

this still makes me laugh (yes, i am still here)

how fast does penn bald
