Can I do that? Can that be something that you can learn? How did questions function differently between Eastern versus Western intellectual traditions? What role do you think embodied questions those we explore through doing rather than thinking play in developing wisdom? What's on the other side of the hill? What happens if you go to the end? What's the origin of this? How should one think about the exploratory in one's life? Is there anything that you would add to your list of 15 statements that define what makes a quality question? Is there a qualitative difference between the questions humans are asking and the questions our AI systems are beginning to formulate? What do you think would help them get there? Any idea on a forcing function on how we get them [LLMs] to ask the better questions so that they might improve in that direction? What were some novel questions that broke your brain at the time in thinking about this 10,000-year clock or beyond? What's it good for? What would you use it for? What else could you do over the long term for 10,000 years? How do you transmit values over time? How do you evolve values that need to change, and how do you make a difference? How do even know what you don't want to change? What do you want to continue? What's the most essential aspects of our civilization that we don't want to go away? What are the rules? What is the system? How do you pass things along in time and not change the ones you don't wanna change, and make sure you change the ones that are more adaptable so they can adapt? What do you think about questioning itself as an art form? How has being a photographer influenced the way you question reality, visually compared to verbally? Are you a photographer that takes photos or makes photos? What will happen? What will happen next? What are your right now questions that you are wrestling with or working with in your life? Can someone else do what I'm trying to do here? Am I more me in doing my art or more me in doing the writing? Do you have any other thoughts or encouragement about questions that we haven't explored? What makes a good question? How do you ask a good question? What questions do you dwell on to be in purposeful imbalance? What is your practice in embracing the inefficient nature of questions to achieve breakthroughs? What are the new hills you can build and frontiers you can explore? How can you use your curiosity and humanity to pursue questions that trend toward the fringes?…

They give you good reason, but you know the truth. They can feel the fangs, the same as you. Then when the draining starts, for a moment there is peace. There is a promise - whispered close - of Immortality… immortality… immortality… for just a second, you could even believe it’s true. What a dope. They’ll suck you dry. You think they want to share?

This faction includes the police force of the City, the City Council, and its various bureaucratic tentacles. Norfork Town Council : An elected group of representatives that serves Norfork. Currently clinging to their role as bureaucratic arbiters, even as the City’s council attempts to cast them as a vestigial holdover. Colloquially referred to as “city council” (lowercase “c”), much to everyone’s consternation. Norfork Parent’s Assemblage (N.P.A.) : A group of mothers in Norfolk dedicated to improving the community of Norfork. They are often at odds with the City council. They are very powerful, but also often rife with internal conflict. The Dread Ringers: A vampire “mob” led by the arch-vampire Carmichael. They run a network of clubs throughout the City. They have recently expanded into Norfork thanks to a combination of new construction and a “community watch”, which they use as a guise to carry out various unsavory activities. Relegated Production Industries (R.P.I.): Officially, a City-backed construction management company. They have just developed the land inside of the Divot into a business park, where they are putting the finishing touches on their new headquarters. Unofficially… maybe something else. The Star Society : A group of 15-20 amateur astronomers seeking out the clearest skies in Norfork. They are a mix of townies and City folk, but townies always know the best spots and for some reason The City folk can’t seem to get images that are as clear from where they live… The Dark Abbey : Fans of the influencer and fashion vlogger Glymmer AKA Aina Steen. Treated very seriously. Meetups are usually by invitation only, and they’ve begun to hold raves in the derelict mining tunnels beneath Norfork. Their symbol looks like a little cartoony black castle.

Historically, it's hard to argue that something changed the nature of the town of Norfolk more than the Boom. The mine disaster killed an incredibly high proportion of the town's residents, but it also flattened their stories. That is not, of course, the truth of the matter. Their stories still exist. The truth is that the people living in and around Norfork before, during, and even after the incident carried on complicated lives with problems often as mundane as ours, today. The bar served drinks, the newspaper published articles, people had their leaky sinks and roofing tiles fixed. These details are not sanded away maliciously, but the history lost to the scale of the tragedy is personal. In the displays below you will see examples of everyday life from the people of Norfork before the events of the Boom represented through objects saved or recovered from the explosion - like a prototype writing machine that predates the typewriter, and a dress that would have been worn at the time - as well as preserved examples of their own writing about themselves and each other. As you explore the exhibit, think about what your life would have been like if you lived in Norfolk at that time. What would you have seen? What type of work would you do? Why do you think Myriads had not yet revealed themselves to the public? When you've finished with the exhibit, please move down the hall to the right, to the room labelled "The Boom and the Divot". -- Norfork History Museum Display, credited to Kennedy Hartsfeld (Content Warnings: flesh, eye horror, guns, fire, mention of memory loss, possession, brief description of mass death) Check out our amazing guest players!

No one feels safe in the woods around Norfolk, and that's a fact. Since the opening of the town's mine and the attraction of individuals towards it's success there have rumors of unnatural occurrences. My sources recall a wide variety of otherwordliness in their tellings - wolves standing on hind legs, echoing screams or sobs with no source, strange shapes flitting across the moon - and while others might dismiss that as a symptom of their unreliability, I have always held an alternative theory: Norfolk is a queer place that many queer things have made their home. However, I can't say that I expected to witness my town's strangeness quite so directly as I did in the woods that night in the Spring, alongside two unexpected new friends. I hope they will not take issue with my characterization of the events to follow... Here, the excerpt from The Norfolk Register cuts off. The date is missing, but the curator has assured you that the article was written somewhere around 1850, prior to the Boom that would create the Divot. The piece appears to be part of an ongoing column called "The Hidden Door" written by one Mr. Guthrie Lemon .

Before the Gateway Demon, before The City, and before even the explosion that created the Divot, Norfolk began as a small mining town in the mid 1800s; a quiet stop on a railway line from here to there. But, since it's founding atop a lucrative mine, things have moved in the town's shadow. Let's start from the beginning...

Those who pick themselves up from the pavement or find themselves behind the wheel in the middle of the night shake their heads - the stress must really be getting to them. They have other problems, after all - bigger than forgetting they had bought six dozen eggs, or hawking up a bit of black gunk. Have you heard about the raves? In the tunnels? A recipe for disaster. And the new “community watch”? How were you supposed to feel safe? The Norfork liaison is out for herself, the old high school leaves a bad taste in your mouth, and the cops? Well, when’s the last time they helped more than hurt? And so, a choice becomes clear: will we invest in ourselves?

A dumpster. A rooftop. A hidden closet. As the Strangleworm closes in on the people they love and they find allies becoming enemies, the trio make desperate moves to try and get ahead. Kelly makes a promise. Nammi steels some nerves, and calms others. Rabbit makes a daring bid for control of their life. Why have this power, but never use it? This could change everything. It’s an ending, not a beginning. Maybe it’s both.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedMrs. Domal, I completely understand. I definitely didn't mean to overstep a boundary in this matter - I know your family has been through a lot and I did not mean to raise the specter of more difficult times. We of course want to continue to support Izzy's growth as a part of Troop #12. However, while it's true that the passage I attached (see previous email) was written as part of an assignment that was intended to engage the imagination of the troop members, I am worried that perhaps Izzy has taken the tenor of the question more materially than we expected from our scouts. I have it on good authority from another scout that Izzy has mentioned multiple times that " the old high school is completely abandoned " and " if someone were going to break in, there would be no one there to catch them as long as they were careful of the cameras ", and that she has " friends who would protect her, even if there were a ghost or a monster of if we stumbled into something bigger and stranger and more dangerous than we could even conceive at this moment ", at which point the other scout raised concerns and Izzy allegedly told them to " be careful with whom [they] make enemies ". At the risk of overstepping once again, I must ask - has Izzy been to see anyone since everything happened? I speak for several of us when I say that we are concerned she may be fixated on ghosts and the supernatural due to unprocessed feelings over the unfortunate circumstances of your family's move out of Norfork. At the very least, it might be worthwhile to talk to these friends of hers, a pair of upperclassmen named "Ruby" Raine and "Mae" Harrison. If some of the scouts are to be believed, hanging around the two of them could inhibit some of Izzy's growth in the social arena.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedDear Mrs. Domal, We are delighted to have Izzy as a part of Troop 12, she has shown a real commitment to the Norfork Scouts and attends each meeting with enthusiasm that is infectious to the other Scouts. However, her recent written application for the "Supernatural" badge (which we are admittedly still hammering down the details for) included some worrying content we thought you should be made aware of, especially given you family history. I've included an excerpt below, with some of my own emphasis on the wording that concerned me and the other troop leaders the most. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me and we can discuss further details. "...of course, my research says the best ghost-hunting location is obviously the place where the person whose ghost it is died . I also learned that ghosts don't really like to be around people (and who can blame them, we can eat all kinds of delicious things while they basically just have to watch and think to themselves "wow that looks so good". Plus I'm sure that they have people that they miss, and being around them all the time would probably just make them too sad ). So, I thought to myself, maybe there's somewhere in Norfork where people died! People die all the time, so the chances that there was somewhere I could go ghost-hunting locally were pretty high. I found a copy of a government subpoena online and - using the skills I had acquired with my "Photo Manipualtion & Collage" badge - I changed some of the wording and submitted a copy to the local records office asking about the location of deaths in Norfork in the last 50 years, and directing them to a secure email server I'd set up as part of my "Cybersecurity & Internet Safety" badge. It turns out way more people than I even thought die! But I narrowed it down to deaths caused by accidents, murder, etc because I didn't think that probably anyone's grandma would want to stick around as a ghost just because. Most of the locations were private residences, and that was a non-starter, but buried deep in the files I found one that mentioned an accidental death at Wilson-Dillard High (if you're reading this and you aren't from here, that's the old high school in Norfork), though it didn't specify where exactly in the school the death happened. Most of the examples in the "Supernatural" badge listing were just things any old Scout could bring in, but because I'm using the "Supernatural" badge to advance to role of Lightning Captain I knew I needed to find something special..."
