how does this thing know what day it is

anyway time is a construct and this thing on my wrist is giving me a rash

[oops guess who checked the date and saw that today’s his birthday. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

[littledhampir]

You arrived here through a fountain and thats the thing you cant get past?

[As for the name... look she doesn't have the first clue how to change the settings on this thing. She's barely mastered texting.]

[scathefires]

i got hijacked to wonderland before this

heres just another rabbit hole

[soooo yeah kinda.]

[littledhampir]

[Hilariously Rose spent 2 years there herself. This version just doesn't remember that.]

You got kidnapped to a theme park?

[scathefires]

wasnt a theme park

just a badly themed alternate dimension

i mean i read those books when i was a kid and they were ok but theres taking stuff too far

[littledhampir]

You lost me

I didnt exactly do a whole lot of reading as a kid

But youve been kidnapped like this before?

un: Dumb Bitch Energy

[3ofswords]

you sure it's the watch


probably not the message to send before i point out that previously we were notching bedposts to keep track of the days

[scathefires]

seriously

that was really all you could come up with

glad that was before my time

[3ofswords]

didn't always have paper, and none of it was real anyway

it's probably a joke, when we came out with the watches they all said april 1st

[scathefires]

no one thought to carve marks in the wall

thats what you do in prison

un: updog

[spoileralert]

"Jason Doe" I like it

the better question might be "what year does it think this is"

[scathefires]

j could stand for anything

how do you know im not a jennifer or a jessica or a josephine

and thats what i mean whose calendar is this running on

[spoileralert]

because if you select the username it shows your full name.

I assume it’s gregorian but who knows? could be mayan. maybe the world ended

[scathefires]

[wellll, shit. good thing “jason todd” means nothing around here. it’s not like wonderland, with a vast library and nosy people who’ve apparently read his whole life story. nobody knows him, or knows of him. it’s ... a little bit comforting, actually, to be a complete unknown.]

world better not have ended

i have unfinished business back home

un: Owen

[underpinnings]

it's the thing that constructs the time, it only has to agree with itself.

seems relatively accurate with the movements of the sun and moon;

real question is why they matched the calendar to seasonal patterns in the north/west hemisphere.

[scathefires]

yeah i mean are we all even from the same planet

does everyone know what august is

just seems weird

[underpinnings]

in roughly a hundred people here, maybe ten agree on previous circumstance

seems like only a few that don't sound like anywhere on earth, but timing is weird, people remember different years differently

says more to me about the people in charge, or what they think we need or want to see


see if anyone's got aloe or chamomile for the rash

[scathefires]

id like to give these people in charge a piece of my mind

no one ever has direct contact though right

un: Kat

[mediumhoodie]

Are you worried about the day?

[scathefires]

why would i be worried about august 16th

not like a specific day can beat me up and steal my lunch money

[mediumhoodie]

That's kind of how you made it sound.

Lucky for you, I don't think it could do very much with your lunch money.

[scathefires]

trick question

i never had lunch money and even if i did i fight dirty

would not recommend trying to jump me for the record

un: John Druitt

[borneinblood]

No doubt because someone programmed it that way.

[scathefires]

well obviously smartass

who put the program in

how do they know what day it is

[borneinblood]

Whoever was responsible for their creation. And perhaps they simply took their best guess.

[scathefires]

youre missing the point here dude

and best guess is a terrible way to program a calendar for the record
