Thankfully spared from the foolishness of the last few days. Or perhaps exempt is the more appropriate term.
A theory for you the citizens of this City -- rather than be subject to the whims of unknown 'divinities' has it occurred to you that perhaps being cursed is not an imposed condition but rather a conscious state of mind.
Uncharacteristic behavior is accepted so willingly, even welcomed by those who fall prey to the city 'curses' as if it is nothing more than changing one's shirt. Doesn't this then indicate that as with everything else there is choice involved?
Ruminate on that the next time you feel the urge to succumb to what the city enforces on you
poor hapless victims.
Destruction,
branching out are we? I didn't realize you take up networking in your spare time.
