We'll be startin' up pretty soon!

Hello, everybody! Long time no see!

s or ry it's be en a littl e bi t.

Hope everything’s been goin’ well on your front. Oh, it’s been a stellar time for us! Can’t believe Henry and I celebrated our one-year-anniversary just a week ago.

ther e was a par t y but it ha d to be pr etty quiet. you kn ow why. than ks for all the wel l- wis hes t hou gh!

Now, I’ve been hard at work. Henry here’s helped me gain more of an understanding of what kinda li’l’ procedures may be a bit more, well, humane-like to be subjectin’ folks to. Together, we’ve designed a bit o’ something that may help undo the li’l’ experiment I carried out a couple of years ago. We’ve designed it to be a sort of game. Painless! Harmless! You tell ‘em, Henry!

well, i woul dn't call it a game , ex ac tl y, but more of ext ra h an ds on d eck du r ing th e actual operation. s ort ing ou t th e signals, t hat ki nd of thing. it shouldn't hurt them at all. and shouldn't hurt us. i made sure of th at.

Yes! Extra hands on deck! We’re gonna need your help. Stay tuned!

Hey! So I have family out in Chicago who can get to your tape, Henry, but they'd have to send it to me in order to get thr actual audio (they dont have anything they can use to play it) would that be alright? Or should we keeo the tape in there and find a different solution? :[

h e y bud dy. so rr y if i hop on and of f re ally qu ick , i do n ' t want to attr act to much att en ti on. i don't kn o w if i h av e a ta p e in Ch ic ag o, but that s ounds ab out right for what and w here anything left of me out th ere w ould b e. as l on g as the music m ak es it fr om the re to somewh ere ever y on e can acc e s s it, i wouldn ' t thi n k keep ing it in the place it was f ound would be that im por tant. being abl e to see everyth ing would be rad eno u gh, i don' t think it ma tt er s. make su re you have some way to pl ay it, th ough. some of my other list ene rs said be fo re that casse tte playe rs aren't as common as they we re, and i'd hate to see it get br ick ed. if you get on e and need a list of sweet ta pe s to pl ay, i'd l ove t os h are. i'd get you a physical mixt ape, but that went with the r est of the phy sica l stu ff. good lu ck. and th ank you.

Yep! Let’s lay low for a bit while Mal enjoys the new premises. 

s oun   ds goo d

Uh.... odd question.... do u guys know how I got here????

(i mean i drank a lot outside but i never blacked out this bad!)

[williamy3w]

hello? hello? is anyone there?

[williamy3w]

hi will!!!!! :333

i was wondering, is it okay to use your face or your friends faces as profile pictures? like henry, mal, tati, ect.

Figure that could get confusin’ fast! And I think some of my pals wouldn’t take too kindly to it — they’re more private than I am and they ain’t exactly used to entertainin’. Thanks for askin’, though! If you think I’m just that pretty, any of your doodlings should do just fine!

[williamy3w]

h e l l o? why is your blog so o l d

Woah! Howdy, Tati! Here to check out our new decor?

n o

the vibes in here are a w f u l btw 🤎

haha, p roba b ly. i d id m y be s t!

i  n e e d to talk to you i've been w a i t i n g for a while 🤍 you guys really take your t i m e in that garden of yours huh 🤭

Oh, ab-so-lute-ly!

um . . . may b e.

ew. forget i said anything anyway my angels are telling me your m o n s t e r is looking for us ‼️

Yikes!

sh ould we hide? we could go back to my pl ac e.

I mean, I figure it ain’t benefitting any of us if we split up. S’pose the thing would simply come for Tati here again. 

y e s  i don’t want to be HERE a l o n e ‼️ and if i was in your w e i r d old screensaver i’d be as uncomfortable as grandpa radio is over here

h e y!

i’m not asking for h e l p like i think you shouldn’t be a l o n e either ❌

that’d just be s t u p i d

and didn't they already find you there o n c e.

your place isn't s a f e. 🔓

i don' t t h ink i can st ay here muc h lon ge r, though.

And this ain’t the most secure place to hide anyway. As much as I like the folks here, it ain’t exactly private. We’d hafta find somewhere you all solidly have feet on the ground, somewhere just for the three of us.

why n ot the pl a ce we u sed to ha ng out? 

your boyfriend d e s t r o y e d it. lmao

Technically, Mal did! Or maybe those folks we’re lookin’ to avoid! Who can say?

oh. wha t if we ma ke a new on e?

what about m a l 💓

shouldn’t we all be t o g e t h e r

Someone let us know she could be stoppin’ by a while back, but I ain’t heard a peep from her yet. S’pose we could wait for her, though time is of the essence!

and…i don’t kno w. hiding out’s only temp orary. and the kind of p la ce we need sounds pretty s m all. d a r k. lone l y. we can’t stay ther e forev er

maybe we'll have time to come up with a permanent s o l u t i o n

Henry and I have been working on some thin’ like that! Couple of the folks out there seem to think I’m responsible for the sticky situation those kids are in. 

w e al l ar e.

Well, figure a fella ought to be able to admit when it ain’t turning out like he hoped. And start hopin’ for somethin’ new! 

like pick in g them ap ar t, if we ca n .

aren’t they like the closest thing to d e a t h HERE 💒

how are you even gonna do that

Erm. Well. We ain’t rightly sure!

but with a little more t ime ma yb e we ca n figure it ou t

And I’d sure appreciate your brains on the matter, kid!

t h a n k s.

i guess if we had a s a f e p l a c e we could think about it more. or come up with more of a p l a n at least

and may be o n e of our buddie s wh o it isn ' t so dang erous to will g et to it bef ore w e ca n

… spea king of which, how a re we gonna make a new place? …

...

What’re ya lookin at me for? 

i mean. you’re the only one who can m o v e around comfortably. have you s e e n anywhere that could work

We ain’t tryin to make anythin’ so big as a whole “Site!” All we need’s a li’l pocket. Somewhere that thing can’t access! 

i don’t think we can do it. even all t o g e t h e r.

but mayb e they could.

i don’t t r u s t them 💔

Ya got any better ideas, kid?

💬 💬 💬

fine. let's ask mal once she gets here.

if sh e get s here. should i g o ch eck on he r?

Sweetheart, you ain't in much condition to go hoppin' around! If I knew where she'd got off to, I'd do it, but nobody's found occasion to say.

yeah, i dunno eith e r.

well. let's s e e.

WILLIAM. DROP AN OFFICIAL "I VOTED" PIN AND MY LIFE IS YOURS.

Here ya go! Can't figure out how to make 'em come in anythin' else but a set of five, so this is for you and four friends -- or one fella committing "Voter Fraud"!

[williamy3w]

Heya Henry, have you ever considered selling Big Red Box merch? I know we all would love to rep the band lol! I know you can't put stuff into the outside world, but there's lots of websites nowadays that let you upload an image and print out the merch for you! You could even get Will to travel to them if that's safer. Here's an example: https://www.printful.com

hi ! so r ry i t took a while. that's a p retty distant fr eq ency from my own... but we mad e some !

will w en t a l i tt l e cr a z y with putting th e album cov e r on sh ir t s an d th in g s.

I think if ya wanna be able to look real spiffy, you oughta!

and even @fortunateisle con tr ib ut e d a l itt l e!

if th ere 's any th in g you all want in par ti cul ar, feel free to l et us know!

By the way, darlin', did you make these ones? 'heaven is a radio station'?

huh. n o? i th ought you d id.

Nope! Didn't feel like somethin' you would say, neither.

hmm. str an ge. well, they' r e all go in g tow ar ds keeping the li ght s on aroun d here, so I don't necess ar ily min d it. i guess.

The more the merrier, what I always say!

[williamy3w]

Y'all were too kind with our housewarming! Me n' the mister have finally managed to get set up and comfortable with all of your generous gifts.

too k to o long. sor r y. but i'm particular ab ou t wh er e th ing s go.

We were a li'l short on furniture, but had plenty'a decorations to go around! It's feelin' like home around here!

or a p la ce to b e, an y w a y.

Thanks to @toasted-valentine for the harpsichord, cabin, poster, microphone, and BEAUT of a bed!

will re a ll y likes th e be d.

That I do! That I do!

we' r e l uck y it d oe sn ' t r ai n he re.

@auradastler got us two handheld microphones as well! Now I betcha we can record two tracks at once. Maybe less interference!

exci te d to te st it o ut.

Thank you to @thatonerandompigeon for all of those cute li'l cooking implements with the fruits on 'em and such! And the dragons!

i m ad e them k is s. hope th at ' s ok.

Couldn't find a place to put the swingset, I'm sorry to say. But it was a great gesture all the same!

than ks to @candle5000 for th e sun fl ow e r. i r e all y lik e it.

Looks just like you, darlin'!

@eggytrain grabbed us that li'l train toy by the picnic blanket!

choo choo

And @aliflower88 sent us that great big crystal chandelier you can see up there! Wowza!

it is r eal ly ni ce. gu e s s if it w a s ev er n i gh t we' d s ee it a ll li t u p.

Aw, is this place gettin' you down?

nah. jus t thinking, i gu ess. it' s as nice as it can be, bu t it's sti ll not th e outside, y'know?

I get ya, honeydarlin'. But we'll figure it out.

yeah.

[williamy3w]

what would happen if one were to lets say put what youve said here and train an artificial intelligence to act like you. would it be you? or a sad clone (im anti-ai i hope this is obvious)

Well, if I ain't there talkin', it ain't me! I s'pose it'd be a thing guessin' off of an amalgamation of my time on "Tumblr."

Figure it's like how there's tons of fellas named "William Yew" out there. Common name, y'know? But they ain't me!

So not a clone, but a sad...portrait of a fella who looks kinda like me, I s'pose?

[williamy3w]

Send this to ten other bloggers that you think are wonderful. Keep the game going, make someone smile!!! ♡♡♡

Thanks, pal! This made me smile indeed!
