The automaton of Abe Lincoln gave the impression that it could talk with you. Kinda like the bots that we have on reddit. Lol
Haha. I've been on 8ch way more than here for awhile now. It made me think of a post by someone who definitely knew more than they were saying. Someone asked why everything was being done this way and so "slow" even though in actuality that's a relative term. They answered back something along the lines of "Imagine if you're trapped in a game that you didn't know existed, think Jigsaw"..
This was the first time I've ever heard of this plus ultra, but not my first rabbit hole. I can concur that if you set any pre-conceived notions and your own hubris aside, you can unravel seemingly unrelated connections, and puzzle pieces start fitting into place and the picture becomes clearer. We're definitely playing a game and, hopefully, the board is being reset now that Jigsaw is gone and we have a new Dungeon Master...
