“Bitter”

“I don’t like Tom Ford.” said Jan Hertel in 2015.

The attack against Lacey, within the Illuminati, was conducted by bitter, upper middle class, pseudo-intellectuals. The sort of faux-expert, Ivy League credentialed, people who often appear on MSNBC. They are worthless at running at real war. Unable to fix or address actual issues well. And they’re often slightly nerdy, unattractive and irritated…deeply irritated…by not being someone far more glamorous. Someone Old Money like Lacey. Or someone “famous” like Justin Beiber or Taylor Swift. They aren’t…entirely in control of their own destiny or their own perspective even.

Why did they hate Lacey? Just because her cousin is Katie:

And another of her cousin’s owns this place:

And her husband could easily be this guy:

Why does that guy bother them? Because he’s SO complicated. SO complicated. …And they can’t figure him out. …They legitimately can’t fathom him. And yet he’s obvious to her in the most natural, ordinary way. …And they have great sexual tension and love between each other. An excellent, eternal connection.

Are they just jealous?

Mmm…maybe?

But….it almost seems like something more. Is it?

Regardless, they tried to make their case a real thing. A meaningful, well-grounded, stable, open-minded, high-minded thing. And sadly the Illuminati fell for it. And then had schisms. And…now it’s sort of a bloody mess.

Turning Taylor Swift Is A Poopy Head in a weekend lecture tour at Brown University…didn’t take off. Even though they’ve tried it for over eight years. And even though Bobby Kennedy Junior tried to make it his thing too.

“TAY IS DUMB!” he would have had tattooed on his ass. And then sent drunken text messages with photos of it to Diego to make it even cooler.

So what was their point?

“We tried to use Maggie Lake last night. To make our case. Didn’t work!” says Bobby, exhausted.

“What irritates you people?” asks a reader.

“How well she seasons her food.” says Erin. “Her ability to decorate.”

“Her voice being so British.” says Chris Hayes.

“Her seasonings!?” says a reader.

“Yeah. She really seasons…her food.” says Erin.

“Thyme, oregano, garlic! Fresh garlic! ONIONS! Cumin, ginger. Stuff like that!” says Chris.

“Did that bother Diego?” says a reader.

“Not as much.” says Chris.

“Are you being facetious or real?” asks Lester Holt.

“Real.” says Erin.

“Why not just season your food then!?!” says Lester Holt.

“I don’t want to run out and I’m scared that I can’t afford to buy more.” says Erin.

“Are you also afraid to use it?” says a Black psychic.

“Yes!” says Erin.

“I don’t think Lacey understands and neither do I if there’s reincarnation she’s obviously from out from Egypt from Africa yeah and I don’t think we relate because we’re very wealthy in that-in that way. We don’t have a lack of spices or understanding of flavors and so it’s hard for us to really even understand where you’re coming from. I’m sorry.” says a Black male psychic. “Also she may just be better bred than you if there’s not reincarnation.” 

“I don’t use spices as well as Lacey but I was raised to be resourceful and thoughtful with what I ate. So it has something to do with breeding even if it’s not that.” says Katie, her cousin.

“We weren’t raised with that as much because our mother who did most of the cooking was not Nesheim, but even so, I still am more thoughtful than most people about what I eat.” says Alys.

“Is it weird to you guys at all that she’s had hours everyday for months to just talk to you?” says a reader.

Donald Trump shakes his head no.

“You know we were hoping she would think she was schizophrenic, but she literally had a very well respected psychologist in Seattle tell that that was not at all possible or likely or something, and that he couldn’t diagnose her with that and that he wasn’t going to…and so we basically just lost that. But we’ve been in denial about it for about eight years because we didn’t think that she was ‘smart’ enough and intelligent enough basically to take that doctor as seriously as she did.” says MSNBC.

“So that was like eight years ago when she was in Seattle when this first happened that a doctor talked to her because she got freaked out, went to the emergency room, told them it was happening, they didn’t think that it was likely she had schizophrenia but they thought she could’ve had a psychotic episode and they were worried about her and so they recommended a doctor for her to go to in some hospital in Seattle. And then she went there and that doctor diagnosed her with basically just clinical depression and then he didn’t bother explaining the rest because he didn’t seem to think that he should…but then he gave her a prescription for sleeping pills and told her to try meditation.

I think umm…Bobby is the one who has had a hard time understanding that not Lacey and then you guys think it’s him speaking on her behalf or you think it’s her talking to you or you’re reading her… He gave her sleeping pills! You guys inspired him to do that because you guys were hoping to kill her using sleeping pills…but then she never got that medication filled and obviously the prescription expired a long time ago. Why did he tell her to try meditation? Probably because he thought this could be real.

I mean that’s Seattle and they’re a lot more progressive and aware of certain things out there than the rest of the US. Things that are supernatural. I am in California and California is like that too! It’s very West Coast! …And so, umm…there aware of a lot of things that the rest of United States isn’t as aware of…and so I think they just thought it was sort of stupid that she discovered some weird supernatural, psychic phenomena, and that she was maybe even overreacting to it and so I think he thought, ‘You know she just needs to learn how to channel better or calm down or something!’ and so he recommended New Age therapy. So is like essentially just finding some place to do some meditation probably to sort of calm herself down…and I think what you guys can ever understand is that he knew she did not have schizophrenia. HE KNEW.

Part of it was her age. Part of it was her background and her history. Part of it was her speech patterns. …And he had her in the office with him. It wasn’t a Zoom meeting. She was sitting in his office for about an hour talking with him in a very well respected, upper class, totally cool medical place that checks out! Professional! Respected. WE WOULD USE THEM IN THE CIA.

So this man was definitely a well trained doctor…and he had years of experience. He was probably in his 40s or 50s at the time. And now he could even be in the 60s or retired. White, average looking man. Very common. And to him it was an open and shut case. Even to him. Even to a white, average doctor. …She didn’t have Schizophrenia. She didn’t meet his standards for diagnosis of Schizophrenia. She just didn’t meet the criteria for diagnosis. She didn’t qualify. Okay? …She didn’t meet the profile. It didn’t work OK? She doesn’t have Schizophrenia! Her symptoms did not match with Schizophrenia. …Her pattern of speech, her psychological background didn’t match with a diagnosis of Schizophrenia. It just didn’t match with Schizophrenia and so he couldn’t diagnose her with that…because he’s a real professional…and he’s not gonna say, ‘Oh you have pneumonia!’ when the person has a paper-cut on their finger

There are some people who can’t handle that about her because she’s such a good psychic and I’m saying that as a person who is not Christian. Lacey is a genius psychic, a genius psychic medium! …I mean I’ve never seen somebody channel the dead so easily. Garza OK? Yeah…there are some people maybe who can but it’s really not that easy…and she does it in this like totally natural way, and I don’t think she’s even doing it in any sort of demonic way necessarily at all. I think it’s just her brain! Could we ask God to heal it? Yeah…we probably could. But you know to be honest with you at this point in her life I don’t even know if that makes any sense. How did she end-up this way? OK we have spent years analyzing her and it’s likely that her father was born in 1894 one way or another…and so it’s very possible that her brain is just different but she’s not Schizophrenic. She’s not. And it’s very complicated.

If she actually is the daughter of Tom Banks biologically, the thing is there aren’t that many people with fathers who are 88 who conceive them and so it’s possible that we don’t know enough about what actually is happening in the brain when your father is that old. It’s possible it’s not almost ever Schizophrenia for those children of old men…but there’s always something more towards the psychic. There could be some people who have Schizophrenia and that could actually be unrelated to the age thing of their father or it could just be some weird thing genetically that is sort of comorbid with the situation. Like a mental-illness issue that isn’t related to the age of the father directly on a genetic level.

Of course…it’s possible that they’re not unrelated??? and maybe I’m wrong about that…but I’m not so sure. …I kind of wonder if they’re not just more ‘psychic’ not Schizophrenic…but more psychic…because their parents are like…old. …Their father is old! I mean think about it! It’s such a common sense thing. …Why people keep fighting common sense?! ..It’s because your dad is dead! Their dad is dead OK? And so when your dad dies when you’re like five…mother nature is like how about if we have you covered because if you end-up being like her, and ‘nothing makes sense’…you’re gonna have to be able to talk to the dead. What is to survive or be happy at all!? And I honestly don’t understand what your people’s problem is.” says the CIA.

Later.

It’s discovered that Helena Bonham Carter and Lacey both don’t understand rejection from men sexually entirely. As they’re both very cautious and yet free-spirited…and men find them both attractive more than our current narrative leads us to believe. So…Erin’s misery…is…not something they relate to on a deep psychic level. And Erin, being insecure and narcissistic, can’t accept that reality. So…she starts to open up…and then she shuts down because she feels too extremely sad.

“I have a feeling the character of Daphne. Yes. On Frasier. May not understand either.” says an actor.

“I don’t. I am a lot like both of them. I am possibly a real person in Heaven and no I don’t understand either. That’s true.” says Daphne.

“Do you season your food well, Daphne?” says a Black man.

“No. But I feel bad about it.” says Daphne.

“I don’t.” says Erin.

“But it embarrasses you?” says a reader.

“Yes!” says Erin.

“Erin…men can sense things like that.” says a man.

“Why should they still care!?” says Erin.

“Because I’m not dumb.” says a living Black man. “Because we aren’t idiots, Erin.”

“I’m happily married!” says Erin.

“Are you? Or did you profile him? After researching Lem?” says God.

“Some of both!” says Erin.

“So is he a real keeper? Or not?” says France.

“Erin…you seem ridiculous!! Like some little girl in 1987 who bought the Christmas Barbie just to compete with another little girl who wanted one…but who’s dad was dead.” says a reader.

“So! What’s bothering you??” says a woman to Erin.

“I can just sense her criticism of me.” says Erin.

“Why do you care?” asks Jess Seay.

“Because she’s…better than me. She’d never have made the mistakes with her life the way I did.” says Erin.

“SO are you happy bringing home the bacon? Or are you depressed as hell!?” yells JD Vance.

“I married JD. …I’m a Yale graduate. A lawyer. But I married JD.” says Usha. “It’s unclear to both of us…if you married your husband or if he settled down with you?”

“I settled down. I didn’t marry him.” says Erin.

“GOT IT.” says Usha.

“So are you miserable or what!?” says JD to Erin.

“FINE! I am. Okay!?? I am slightly miserable. …Not that much. But…a little. I resent that he doesn’t…love me…the way Lem loves Lacey.” says Erin.

“Or how I love Melania?” asks Donald Trump.

“YES!! OKAY!??” says Erin.

“Because you’re his ‘equal’ and his ‘friend.’ Instead of being his wife.” says a reader.

“But I would think being a ‘friend’ is more dignified, and Old Money and even Godly.” says a white, American, southern woman.

“It’s NOT.” says Lem.

“It’s asexual bullshit. Not at all romantic.” says another reader.

“Erin…are you bisexual…or did you just fake that to seem sexier and more sophisticated?” says the CIA.

“I faked it. …Mostly.” says Erin.

Casi rolls her eyes.

“So! What this…deep pain about?” asks a reader.

“I don’t know either.” says Jan. “Sorry.”

“We get hurt. But in a different way.” says Helena.

“Ahh…I guess…you just feel…worthless.” says Erin. “And you’re constantly striving to feel…worth something.”

“WOW!” says Jan.

“I felt that too!” says JFK.

“I did too.” says Lem. He laughs. “It’s not real, Erin. Nobody is actually worthless.”

Later.

“Erin…darling…you understand? Right? …You’re just not as sexy as Jan Hertel. …Nor as good at decorating or being posh. …He was wearing Goyard on the regular in 2016. And he thought it was slightly…ordinary.

Frankly…you couldn’t seduce Alisha’s husband from her either.

Your nose is too long. And pointed at the tip. And it doesn’t matter then. Alisha’s nose is less icky. And her eyes are prettier and her lips are slightly better.

And she has better hair. And probably better boobs. And cooks better.

…You could seduce him in an evil way. Or in an honest way if you were his soulmate. Or closer to his soulmate. But otherwise…it would be irrational on his part. And as he seems sane…it’s unlikely.

Umm…that being said…you aren’t worthless.

Why can’t you just have humility and dignity?

Your husband loves you.

You have an attractive soulmate or two. You’re not destitute. …So why can’t you just be dignified and humble?” asks a dead train conductor.

“She felt spectacular. Chris made her feel SEXY.” says Matt from the Los Angeles Times.

“SO DID I! …We used to do dances.” says Diego.

“Yup. And I cheered them on.” says Rachel Maddow.

“Erin…you also grew-up in rural America. Wisconsin. And women like Lacey are highly praised there. …Could you have been confused as a person by that?” says the mob.

“YES!!” shouts Lacey’s neighbor.

“SO!! …How’s the revolt?” asks the CIA of her neighbor.

“Not…going…well.

People lack interest.” says her neighbor.

“So far it’s so normal. It’s kinda like…maybe…we’ll see.” says another Harris supporter.

“Erin…why!?” asks Diego. “I did it partially for you.”

“Just to make me feel better?” says Erin.

“YES! …You got so sad.

But turns out…Lacey is just superior. Because she’s a strong Christian and scientifically superior. So…it’s…not…necessary.

Why didn’t you just stay with us?” says Diego. “You could have.”

“Chris made her feel inferior.” says Kate Shaw Hayes.

“The thing is…Lacey’s WAY hotter than Julie Andrews. And Chris is NOT as good-looking as Christopher Plumber. …Why didn’t you just…let it be what it was!? …You were his side chick. His sexy side chick. In his open, polyamorous marriage. …And you lacked the genuine sophistication and maturity and wisdom and decency…to just…out him. …You should have outed him. Instead of attacking her.” says Diego.

“As what?!?” says Erin.

“ as maybe sort of her type but just way too flawed or just not quite right and somewhere so Lacey and I look a slight bit similar but were dramatically different people so you should’ve just played that up and been like he’s not lame like you see a similarity or you think he’s like Michael but trust me they’re very different people and I guess I’m being humble and dignified and saying that because it’s kind of like I’m not Lacey I’m not Scotia and I don’t think love would actually ever make that mistake. I don’t think that’s his mind. I think that’s her mind though and so someone like that, could make that sort of mistake, and then that’s where you’re like no that’s not the same thing that’s not you’re mistaken and I think that’s part of how they keep messing with her head with them because I keep telling her she’s mistaken. He was gay when I think it’s pretty obvious that he wasn’t. I think it’s pretty obvious that he wasn’t people can fake being happy that I looked at those pictures to, yes and I I don’t see any evidence of him being sad enough to be in love with him at all. When I see tons of evidence suggests that there was a sexual something, even if it was just rape and really, he puts up with way too much from Jack, I don’t know why he encouraged him to cheat on people but really what people seem to fail to recognize is that he was also cheating on lab it wasn’t just that he was sleeping with other people to get with that he was also sleeping with other people so you can’t have him sleeping with dozens of other people every year and then have let me just like every time it’s secretly with me I don’t think that’s possible even for an idiot to believe that completely especially because he was enjoying himself and their pussies like you can’t. You can’t tell me that a gay guy would go over completely fine even a bisexual one or pansexual. Oh it’s completely fine can you fucking other people you’re just fucking me it’s like oh no, no that was just like ago between a no because I’m pleasant sleeping with them most likely, and even if he was, it’s not him, why does he have to involve all these other women? It doesn’t make any sense OK because those women existed. It wasn’t just him. Those men existed like red Fais he wasn’t just oh my gosh this is a no this guy is talking to Jack too much in the White House no red face and him were pretty obviously having a sexual relationship as much as they could right so I don’t think you guys have thought this through. I think it’s stupid as fuck to be colloquial. I don’t think lamb could’ve possibly tolerated it and then really almost attracted to men at all and then on top of that no he does look straight he does. He does ask Katie, but he looks physically straight.

NFS has ghost that she’s talking to and sleeping with. I have a feeling that he probably is just straight and was and I don’t think you guys are being rational or normal about it. There is nothing wrong with what I just said you’re psychotic inability to understand that is very disturbing.

But that’s another topic I just am I got I got level on an intuitive level. I think it’s completely impossible that he wasn’t straight. I really do. I think it’s extremely unlikely that he wasn’t straight.

I think you guys aren’t thinking of Lake James Garner Lem’s looks a little bit like James Garner and I don’t think James Garner was gay. No rock Hudson was gay James Garner was not gay. OK I love looks like James Garner. He looks straight. Trust me I’ve looked at man I like man he’s straight, yeah, he’s straight.

So that being said, I think that’s one of your problems is that you can’t except that all of you, but I think another problem is that Aaron seemingly doesn’t understand that that’s her problem too because she’s siding with these people they don’t understand love sexuality Aaron almost at all OK Your husband looks a little bit like him. It’s true. It’s kind of funny and kind of weird and I don’t think he would be married to him if you guys weren’t having sex. I doubt it anyway.

So I I think Aaron by being a liberal and going to the big city right making a name for yourself you kind of lost your mind you could’ve been a movie star you weren’t pretty enough even with plastic surgery. You just didn’t have a face to be a really famous movie star you’re just not that prettier in your eyes just aren’t that pretty you’re not that pretty. I’m not necessarily either. My futures are proportional, even if they’re not actually superior and I wouldn’t mess with them for that reason possibly because it’s just like my face is wide and so wider nose looks good even if it’s not actually superior. I have a feeling Lacey‘s face is more narrow than people realize but not necessarily but it’s just I think my nose is proportional. It’s not the best nose but I think it matches me and it works and it’s not gonna ever be as good as hers but I don’t think it means that it’s like a death sentence for my sex life. It just means that I have to be aware and then find a man who likes me and just likes me for myself it’s like oh yeah she’s good enough Sheila is not like in a disregarding way but like he actually thinks I’m good enough like I arouse him and then I’m also really beautiful and that can be really romantic. It’s like a guy who sees you for who you are in the inside as we used to say and then see is your physical beauty and things so no that’s not as good as some people but that’s OK because I think she’s pretty and I really like her just for who she is.

I know this is Lacey‘s view of things to Aaron not yours, seemingly at all. Lacey is the one who is deep not you and you had that upside down this entire time. Yes and part of the reason why is because she’s superior to you socioeconomically I am to some degree a lot of people I think are getting paid like 100,000 a year living in New York City working for the New York post or the Wall Street Journal or some thing and they feel really elite and they’re probably in a lot of cases in the illuminati But for whatever reason but I don’t think that’s actually the most sane thing to do and I won’t be surprised if Lacey has pointed that out to people we’re billionaires it makes sense for control purposes to have people like you in the illuminati but you guys don’t have the same perspective as a lot of people who are better off than you are better educated, or more sophisticated or something.

So I’m sorry but I think I am in a higher class than you. I think I’m not upper class but I have a very nice house and I do have decent perfume. I have five kids. We have a very nice life I’m not is sophisticated or upper class is Lacey my great great great grandfather wasn’t a famous silver smith Norway of you know important value to the world by a great grand. Uncle didn’t write you know Norwegian, American fiction that is in advance historically significant but I think I’m a little better off than you and I sure as heck more stable.

I don’t understand why you don’t get it. Yes, you’re jealous of me too but you’re pretending to yourself not to be because you want to feel super sexy and sophisticated.

Sweetie, you’re such a heck because you just like getting high on your ego. Your decorating is so blasé. It’s so predictable. You’re so predictable. Lacey actually isn’t predictable she’s so unpredictable that it scares people and then they go bat shit crazy in regard to her. I am a very unique person. I’m kind of predictable and kind of not but no you are very predictable Aaron so predictable because you’re trying so hard so so hard if there is an illuminati I have yet to understand your perspective you see more like a parasite or a leech who has no perspective of their own and just imitates people, so can you try to explain to us why what I just said could piss you off or hurt your feelings or why it is that you disagree with me or what like where are you coming from and I don’t want to see you crying and being evil you need to actually like make some sense!” yells Alisha.

“I AGREE!!” says Lacey’s female neighbor.

Later.

“I just hate how stuffy they are!” yells Ed Helms.

“Lacey and Lem?” asks a reader.

“YES! …If he’s straight. …He’s so damn stuffy.” says Ed Helms.

“I was! Regardless. …People described me as PRISSY. LITERALLY!” says Lem.

“But you were raffish!?” says Ed Helms.

“YES!! As a straight man. …But I was also very stuffy.” says Lem. “And when I tried to be gay…it got prissy.”

“You keep saying try too much!” yells Tim Walz’s Lieutenant Governor.

“Because I HAVE TO!!!” yells Lem.

“OH! She’s making you?” she says.

“NO!!!! …PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE!!” yells Lem.

“He has had to reexplain himself often.” says the CIA.

“Okay! So! Alisha…I’m probably just shallow.” says Erin. “And maybe in my case I’m more…tied up with my working class roots than you.”

Alisha nods.

“I TOLD LACEY OFF!!” yells Peggy Flanagan.

“WHY!??” shrieks the CIA.

“I told her off publicly. …Because…I knew she’d be watching. And we weren’t polling well. And I knew…she’d know.

And so…since a lot of us…had assumed that that was clear indication she was JFK reincarnated…or Bobby reincarnated…or…a failure woman…I decided to call her out. Kamala insisted she wasn’t hurt by Lacey’s supposed superiority. So…we assumed she was the dumb, evil one.” says Peggy Flanagan. “And she could tell I came from a working class background. And…that was…when I started getting scared. Because…none of us…have seen her in any natural setting…so…we…assumed things.”

“LEM WAS STRAIGHT.” says a living gay man in a raspy voice. “What’s for dinner Lem?”

“Baked potatoes, grilled chicken breasts, and green beans. Two chicken pot pies are in the oven.” says Lem.

Erin laughs.

“No. I did well.” says Erin.

“You’re very Working Girl meets Holly Golightly.” says Lacey to Erin.

“YEAH. …She’s…beautiful.” says Erin.

“You are too. In that way.” says Lacey to Erin.

“More than you?” says Erin to Lacey.

“I just can’t be that. …And I might be superior to it. HOWEVER…if George Peppard prefers you…I’m toast. If I’m trying to be with him. Like Chris and Diego. Toast! …Because they just prefer you. But…I’m technically superior. …I don’t think George Peppard’s character would have…decided to end the world though.” says Lacey.

“What would he have done?” says a billionaire to Lacey.

Lacey thinks. “Been cold. Kind of like Prince Philip was to me. Unnecessarily. …Cold. Told me to…try to understand.” says Lacey.

“UNDERSTAND WHAT!?” says Peggy Flanagan.

“”That Holly is special. …All women are. I guess. …You know? …But I’m my eyes…Holly is…about the best there is.’” says George Peppard.

“It’s personal preference. …Or we’re evil.

Why would you assume Lacey’s a loser!??!” says Tim Walz to Peggy Flanagan.

“Because she gave up!?” says Peggy.

“NO!! She’s DYING!!!” says Ethel Kennedy. “YOU DIPSHIT!!”

Ethel thinks.

“She was brutally abused. Neglected. …Then she developed health problems. And instead of committing suicide…she’s tried to live. …And that’s between her and Christ!” says Ethel. “I’m sure she’s a Christian!”

“Yes. I feel…very morally conflicted. And I have kids.” says Lacey.

“Do you all understand that her family abused her?!??” a reader asks Peggy Flanagan.

“I can’t fathom…that affecting someone…that much!” says Peggy Flanagan.

“WOW!!” says Louis Hill Junior. “THAT IS SO BACKWARD AND STUPID!”

“We thought the same.” says Messiah College.

“Ethel. You’re fun.” says Lacey, drinking spiced wine.

“She is!!” says Bobby Kennedy Senior. And then he breaks into tears.

“No. She’s not Jack reincarnated. Ethel is just that fun!” says Ted. “To clarify: Lacey is not JFK reincarnated.”

“Lacey do you feel…weirded out?” says a working writer, who’s female.

“YES!” says Lacey.

“You’re not fun!” she says.

“NO!! We disagree!!” says Queen Elizabeth I.

“We don’t trust you Peggy!!!” says Queen Elizabeth I’s boyfriend. “SORRY!”

Later.

“SO! You feel entitled to more wealth?” says Peggy Flanagan to Lacey.

“SHE IS!!!!” yells Ron Craft. “SHE IS!”

“I agree.” says Tom Banks.

“But not as much as…Queen Elizabeth II?” says Peggy Flanagan.

“EXACTLY ACCURATE!! Yup!” says Tom.

“So it’s just like you can sense the injustice of your life in that way?” says Peggy Flanagan to Lacey.

“YES! And I’m extremely sad without Lem.” says Lacey.

“So…it’s about Lem…and just feeling off?” she says.

“YES!” says Lacey.

“I get it. …I think people misunderstand.” says Peggy.

“Thank you for trying to understand.” says Lacey.

“Well yeah. Because it’s like…you seemed keen on finding wealth. …But it wasn’t about the wealth itself until after we attacked you. It was about Lem.

If he’s actually been poor…would you be obsessed with finding poor men?” she says.

“I was never obsessed with finding rich men. I was looking for him. So yes. But not obsessed. I’m obsessed with EVERYTHING if I seem obsessed with this. I just loved him that much.” says Lacey.

Later.

“SO! …Why were you laughing at me?” asks Peggy Flanagan.

“You’re photogenic.” says Lacey. “Sorry. …But that’s not why.

It’s your glasses. And your hair. The hair color. …Do you dye your hair dark?” says Lacey.

“Yes.” she says.

“I used to. My hair- And then just your glasses!?! …And then you were just yelling at me.

It made me involuntarily laugh. And you read that.

And you just…

I can’t understand “peasants” anymore. *Lacey laughs* Why…are you being so WEIRD!? …You insist…you’re…richer than rich. And SO POSH. And SO HAPPY! …So why are you locking me up? It’s sort of funny.” says Lacey.

“What’s up with the glasses?” says Tim Walz.

“They’re ENORMOUS.” says Lacey. “I’m sorry. It’s comedic.”

“Are you trying to snub her!?” says NBC.

“YES!!” says Katie, her cousin.

Nils Nesheim laughs at Peggy’s glasses too.

“They have NO SENSE OF HUMOR ABOUT THEMSELVES!” says Hugh, a British actor.

“She’s not making fun of you. Those are ridiculous glasses!” says Erin.

“And it was in my head. In my private thoughts. You being in the Illuminati and reading me is just sadistic. …And in this case it’s a pathetic grab for social status. …You’re DELUSIONAL!” says Lacey.

“They are.” says a ghost in a jail in Minnesota. He may be trapped there because he was into the demonic while alive. And so when he died…he got stuck in the jail. And there’s no way out…because demons can’t help you. So you possibly just have to endure Purgatory. Lacey just watched a YouTube video.

“So we’re stuck here, in a way.” says a dead man in a jail in Minnesota.

“DUDE!! THIS IS REAL!!!!” yells Casi.

“Lem did you apologize to Lacey there?” says a man.

“No. But someone there thought he should.” says a man.

“You’re the psychic wife?!!” says a woman.

“Both the woman and Lacey.” says a dead man. “YEAH! They aren’t married. Lacey is. …But I mean both I guess.”

“The jailers may have been asking for prayers to Jesus if there’s reincarnation.” says a man.

“WHY ARE WE TALKING TO HER!?” asks Peggy.

“YEAH! Nice!” says Lem. “Listen…Tim and you are dirt poor compared to Lacey. But if there’s an Illuminati…you’re in it. …But your privileges don’t matter in the sense of social status. You all keep making that mistake. …You’re really just power obsessed, sadistic, immature bullies. …People who were given a little too much power. For anyone’s good.”

“LEM! Did those men try to be your wingmen?” says Erin.

“YUP!!!” says one of them. “MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.” he says, laughing.

“So you’re being allowed to talk here…because you’re being inappropriately conjured by the Illuminati!?!?” says Jonah Wiley.

“YUP. That’s her experience!!!” says one of the dead men.

“You know…you’re both peasants compared to me too. …Why don’t you both understand!? You’re WAY out of line!” says Alisha do Tim and Peggy.

“Because they joined up with us!!!” says a brusk New Money billionaire.

“OKAY!?” says Alisha, mockingly. “YOU’RE an idiot-savant?”

He obnoxiously smiles flirtatiously.

She’s repulsed by him.

“WE ARE NOT POOR!!” says Alisha’s husband like this billionaire is mentally-challenged.

“Is this funny to you?” he asks Lacey like a nutcase.

“I’m not even sure what you’re talking about.” says Lacey.

“She was very mildly chuckling. But it’s too nuanced and complex to discuss. You’re a monster.” says a dead man to the billionaire.

“You’re not intimidating her. You’re scaring her. There’s a difference.” says Jake Bird.

“So being worth $20 and being in the Illuminati isn’t going to make you elite? It’s…all about actual human science? Huh. …But he’s a billionaire!” says Peggy Flanagan.

“YUP!!! And Putin could cause nuclear war!! Would blowing the world up prove something!? No. We’d be DEAD! You people don’t understand power.” says Louis.

“I give them my power.” stupidly says the billionaire.

“Should you be doing that!?” says Alisha, laughing at him.

“You people don’t understand precedents!” says a man to the Illuminati. “You can’t attack Old Money! You just can’t!”

“Not like this! It’s EXTREMELY corrosive!” says Queen Elizabeth I.

“Why!?” says Peggy.

“HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW!?? WOW!!!” says Queen Elizabeth I.

“Okay.” she says.

“Because you need them!! You need them intact!! Or there’s no stability!” says Queen Elizabeth I.

“It’s no different than them viciously attacking us?” says Peggy.

“BINGO! Except…I think you’re still confused. This isn’t going to get better. It’s going to get worse!” says Queen Elizabeth I.

“Worse for me?” says Donald Trump.

“In my estimation…no! FOR THEM!” says Queen Elizabeth I.

“Why did you attack my neighbor?” asks Lacey’s neighbor.

“I made a comment about neighbors.” says Peggy.

“YIP. Could be coincidence. Or not.” says Ron Craft.

And at that Bobby tries to kill Lacey by lifting her out of her body.

Later.

“So! …When will you let up on us?” says Lem.

“NEVER?” says Tim Walz.

“Yeah.

Why!?” says God.

“We’re just going to keep you guessing!” says a stupid billionaire.

“THIS DOES NOT MAKE SENSE!!” says Katie, Lacey’s cousin, trying to reason with them, yet again.

“You’re INSANE!” says a saint to the billionaire.

“You’re angry. And out of touch with reality. And you have been for quite some time. Your money is new…and you don’t really understand that. Or understand your own mind. …You’re out of touch with reality. …Old Money has experience being rich. You don’t. Not really. So…you don’t know how to psychologically cope with your situation. You’re out of your mind! …You…are…out…of…your…mind.” says God.

“But I’m bringing justice!” he says, sincerely smiling.

“To whom!?” says God.

“YOU! Poor people. People like me!” he says.

“That’s not accurate. You can’t attack just her…in such a degenerate, parasitic, profoundly evil way…to bring justice to an entire class of people throughout human history. That’s completely insane.” says God.

“NO! You don’t understand.” he says, smiling sincerely.

“I do. I’m GOD.” says God.

“Have it your way! I’m a billionaire!” he says to God. “HOW DO YOU DO!?”

“I’m GOD!” says God.

“SO WHAT!? I’ve GOT MONEY!!” he says sincerely. His nurse catches him. Gets scared. Shouts and shoots him with a tranquilizer. She prays the Rosary on his behalf.

He’s a literal liberal psychopath. This billionaire. New money. Seemingly white. Male. And everyone is terrified of him in Illuminati, mostly. Not Putin. Not Trump. But Trump has referred to him as ‘a fat guy in his basement.’

“Is he fat?” asks a reader.

“No. He’s not.” says the CIA.

“He’s just a weirdo. A sad, calculating rich nutcase.” says Lacey. “Poor thing.”

“You’ll be so embarrassed when you die.” says Jake Bird. “Your brain ain’t right.”

“Mr. Bird why did those people die?” says a reader.

“I cursed them. …See? So they had demons. Demons who attacked them! They got killed by the demonic.” he says.

“Who’s keeping Lacey alive?” asks a reader.

Jake cries. “ALL OF YOU! You’re SCARED!” he says. “SHE IS GOING TO END THE WORLD!”

“When did she start feeling that way?” asks Chris.

“When you kept going on and on! Right about 2017. Or so. Right about then. …She just gave-up.” says Jake Bird.

“Do you haunt that jail!?” says a woman.

“I can’t discuss that!” he says.

“I’m sorry if we disturbed you all.” says the female ghost investigator.

“We know!” says one of the men.

“Are we funny? …Because we’ll be dead someday too?” asks her boyfriend.

“YES!! …But we know you’re fascinated.” says a woman from a graveyard.

“You need to worship Christ.” says Louis.

“Well! Goodnight!” says Lem.

“Maggie Lake” by Lem

“I was in love with you.” Maggie admits to Lacey. “As much as a homosexual can be.”

I Love You Honey by Patsy Cline plays.

“You are VERY sexually frustrating.” says Maggie Lake to Lacey.

“She’s not to me.” says Lem. “NOT REALLY. Because we make love.”

The song ends.

Walkin’ After Midnight by Patsy Cline plays.

“Hold on! What THE FUCK…ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?!” Lacey says to Maggie.

If I Could Only Stay Asleep by Patsy Cline.

“Umm…I’m in love with you?” says Maggie.

“SO!?!?” says Lacey.

“So…I’m not your friend.” says Maggie.

“Then what the hell…were we doing playing golf?” asks Lacey.

“NO! That’s lesbian.” says Maggie

The Wayward Wind Patsy Cline plays.

“WHY!? It’s golf!” says Lacey.

“YES! GOLF!!” says Maggie.

“GOLF!! Maggie!! GOLF.” says Lacey.

“It’s a sport.” says Maggie.

“Yes!! …It’s golf! It’s a wonderful sport.” says Lacey.

“No! It’s a lesbian sport!” says Maggie.

The song ends.

Return to Sender by Elvis Presley plays.

“I love golf!!!” says Lem.

“I do too!” says Queen Elizabeth I.

“Yes. …WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT!?!” Lacey says to Queen Elizabeth I and Lem and then to Maggie

The song ends.

“Actually a lot of people would assume we are talking about sex. Or something. But…I’m actually just talking about golf.” says Maggie.

“No. You’re not. But LACEY IS. …Maggie you’re a jackass!” says Lem to Maggie.

“Why the hell is golf lesbian?” asks Lacey.

“You didn’t think golf was lesbian?” asks Maggie.

NO! …Some things are just…what they are.” says Lacey. “Golf is golf.”

“Lacey you also like hiking.” says a bisexual hiker.

“YES! You CANNOT STEAL THAT FROM YOU WORTHLESS DIKES…IF THAT’S ALL YOU ARE!!!! YOU PSYCHOPATHS!!??” yells Lacey.

She’s A Lady by Tom Jones plays.

“I am not an evil person, necessarily.” says a hiking bisexual woman.

“THEN WHAT IS THIS ABOUT!?!?” screams Lacey.

“They’re mindless fascists.” says Donald Trump.

“Oh. Okay.

That’s cool that you hike.” says a bisexual to Lacey. She cringes as she hears herself say it, as it’s so fascist and condescending it’s gross.

“I’m starting to wonder what the hell you people actually are all about! Why can’t you let people enjoy things!? Why do you have to keep making stuff mean something like oatmilk. What the fuck is that all about!?” asks a liberal Millennial woman.

“No that’s crazy! You’re right.” says a bisexual female hiker. “I think it’s that I’m a bisexual, female hiker so it’s like it means something sometimes but then other times it doesn’t.” 

“To me ultimately I decided for whatever reason that the golf that we were playing was just golf. I’m not entirely sure why I decided that but I think I just decided it was just golf, or to be honest with you- To be honest with you I was also possibly trying to give you Conversion Therapy.” says Lacey.

“You were trying to perform Conversion Therapy on me?” says Maggie Lake.

“Yes, yes, I actually genuinely was trying to do a sort of quasi-Conversion Therapy just in case if it worked. I wasn’t sure if it would but that was my thought. I was going to out myself to myself, find out that I was homosexual, perform Conversion Therapy on you…or I guess just play golf.” says Lacey.

“So you were going to realize that you were attracted to me at some point or you were going to perform Conversion Therapy? Well that’s intriguing. Where did you learn about Conversion Therapy from?” says Maggie.

“My father is gay Maggie and he came out when I was in high school. …So my father who raised me is gay. He’s homosexual and so he came out in high school- No I was in high school is what I mean…and he went to therapy Christian therapy and part of his therapy was Conversion Therapy. They put him through Conversion Therapy and he had all these books that he was supposed to read and he was he was a pedophile and so he had me well not read them but I had to hear about all of his therapy methods. I-I-I found out what he was doing in therapy. And it was disturbing that I knew all that, it is disturbing, but I learned a lot about Conversion Therapy and I think I thought I was going to try my hand at it just to see if I could help you. You know help you with your drug problem, help you with your homosexuality and whatever else was wrong with you. I was going to try to fix you a little bit…just to see if I could do anything of any use.” says Lacey.

“Well that’s not what happened.” says Maggie.

“What do you mean that’s not what happened! That is what happened! That is reality, you psychotic weirdo.” says Lacey.

“You remind me of an idiotic bitch, who is trying to accuse her of being a witch. No, you watch yourself you little fuckard!” yells Arthur Miller at Maggie Lake.

“You’re prettier than me, you’re in a better class and I mean you’re smarter than me and you’re probably a better person. And I hate that!” says Maggie Lake to Lacey.

“Well I’m telling you what happened from my side of things. What did you think was happening?” says Lacey.

“Maggie what did she to on you to perform Conversion Therapy? Maggie what did she actually do?” says a lesbian.

“I have no fucking clue.

I came onto her like two times and each time she was either completely weirded out and just left or she was really confusing and probably patronizing and she once told me that she wasn’t homosexual and that she was completely creeped out by me and she said it completely seriously and I lied to her. I just completely lied to her. I may have lied to myself first but I definitely lied to her as well. OK?” says Maggie.

“I don’t understand what you mean by lied. How did you lie to her? How did you betray her? You were in love with her and you told her that you weren’t and so you broke her heart!?” says Bobby.

“No I told her that I wasn’t homosexual at all and then I said, ‘I completely understand it’s OK! I’m not homosexual at all!’ which was a lie but it was also also some way that I was trying to use to try to communicate to her that I understood that she was in love, but that it was just like moving too fast or that it meant something and that like we couldn’t be together because it was just too weird but then I also lied to her and was like no it’s not anything it’s not anything at all, so I think I was trying to sort of cover my bases where it’s like if I wasn’t talking to someone who is homosexual then it’s OK and if I was talking to homosexual, then she know that like I understood her and I understood that like it wasn’t really moving at the pace that she wanted it to move out or something like that.” says Maggie.

“Well just ignored the part where you said, It’s OK I understand.’ I had no fucking clue what you were talking about so I just thought, ‘I don’t know what she’s talking about who gives a shit!? People say stupid stuff like that all the time and I’ve never been able to figure out what the hell they’re even saying.’ …I’m not autistic, I’m not stupid, but I may be ditzy. I also think people assume far too much about me and I’ve never been loved. …So I guess basically I just had no idea! And so when you said, ‘Oh, no I’m not!’ I might’ve had some passing thought that you were trying to tell me something coded but I just thought, ‘No! She’s probably trying to tell me that she’s straight but she has no idea what she’s talking about, or I’m mistaken, and I’m just off in my perception.’” says Lacey. 

“So I was actually making you uncomfortable and you felt sexually harassed by me!?” says Maggie.

“What the fuck did you think I was saying to you!? Those were my exact words, practically!” yells Lacey.

“I am not that kind of person though! I’m a really good person!” yells Maggie.

“Then why didn’t you take her seriously when she told you that you were freaking her out?” says Katie.

“Because I didn’t want to think she was in a higher class than me or that she was a smarter person or that she was just sweet. I wanted to think she was in love with me and that I was better than her.” says Maggie. 

“Alright well, I was saying no.” says Lacey.

“Did you know whether or not you were straight?” says Maggie.

“No I was terrified that I was a lesbian. It was a horrific thought to me.” says Lacey.

“I read that and then I assumed that maybe we had a shot.” says Maggie.

“But I told you that I was uncomfortable and that you were bothering me.” says Lacey.

“You seemed angry! But don’t get angry! You don’t get angry! You’re not an angry person!” says Maggie.

“No that was real anger. I was prepared to kill you if I had to, you don’t understand me worth shit potentially, Maggie.” says Lacey.

“Why would you have to kill me?” says Maggie.

“Because you seemed potentially violent and I don’t like being pushed around by anybody.” says Lacey.

“OK.” says Maggie.

“Conversion Therapy. …I was trying to fix you. I was trying to make you get sober. I’m sorry I was ever nice to you. I’m sorry I joined the paint crew that summer. I shouldn’t have gone to that school. That was a huge mistake. I am serious! …And actually I don’t think I had anything to do with the way that you almost died. Yes I had nothing to do with that! So don’t pay that you idiotic disgusting being if that’s all you are. You’re so presumptuous you jackass! You are! …You are! You and your your mother and your father are all such bitches. …You’re such arrogant bitches. I thought you were an actual friend…I didn’t realize that you were just some sort of conniving horny toad. I don’t look like a lesbian Maggie and that’s the other thing I almost think you thought I was because you were so threatened by me. Why can’t you just love me as a person!? That’s what I was mostly trying to do and I guess that’s just too complex and highfalutin for you and your little Irish bitch genes or what?” says Lacey.

“You know I resent the fact that you were trying to perform Conversion Therapy on me, but I am curious as to what it is you thought you were doing.” says Maggie.

“FYI we’ve been through all of this before with Maggie but Bobby Kennedy Junior has a hard time accepting that Lacey is straight and he isn’t possibly and that she’s a good person and that he just lies and pretends like he is and so we’re back here again.” says an actress.

“I was trying to play golf with you with the idea of sort of desexualizing it umm…and just playing golf umm…so the idea was that we were going to play golf and you wrapped your arms around me and you were trying to sort of teach me how to play and I thought, ‘I’m going to ignore that…because I am going to explain to this woman in my own gentle loving way that that’s not what we’re doing. We’re just playing golf.’” says Lacey.

“OK but I said, ‘Just imagine I am your boyfriend.’” says Maggie.

“Yes…but I was just doing it for charity, and I was trying to be kind and loving and I imagined that because it wasn’t going too far you were really just wrapping your arms around me…umm…that that wasn’t…umm…you know it wasn’t really particularly sexual.” says Lacey.

“Would men ever do that to you now Lacey?” she says, viciously.

“Wow…you’re a bitch! Umm…yes, they would do that!” says Lacey. 

“Do you have a sense of humor Maggie or are you just really good at pretending like you do. Kind of like Jack was?” says Lem.

“Maybe I don’t have as much of a sense of humor as I pretended to.” says Maggie.

“OK well I think it’s sort of funny. No I lacked sexual awareness of other people but you were about to say that I was ugly? I wasn’t ugly Maggie. I was extremely sexy and attractive. Why did you wrap your arms around me and say, ‘Pretend I am your boyfriend!’ unless if you found me attractive?” says Lacey.

“You were ugly and retarded. I had a dream that your father thought you were so ugly and retarded. He was going to abort you and I told you that remember!?” says Maggie.

“Yes, I do recall that! Ha, ha! Yeah…no, so I think you’ve imagined a love affair between us that didn’t exist and unfortunately I don’t think you understand that some people are not quite who you think they are. …I’m not a mean person, Maggie, I’m really not, but I do have ESPN in my boobs if you know what I mean sweetie. I’m a ditz! I’m not stupid. I’m actually a genius most likely but I am unusually intelligent in some way regardless yes, but I’m at least unusually intelligent in some way! Most likely! I mean I just can’t quite believe that I’m not, and as far as I can tell, I am a genius to some degree but I am I am a ditz. I am a ditz. I’m not stupid, I’m a ditz. Do you understand the concept of a ditz sweetie or are you too bitter about the fact that I wasn’t in love with you and you made a total fucking ass of yourself to yourself?” says Lacey.

“And what the hell did you think I was doing?” says Maggie. “And FYI if there is reincarnation, she thinks I’m just some dumb Irish bitch from the gutter who’s angry about Ireland and she doesn’t hate me, but she thinks I am sort of a wayward troll.” says Maggie.

“What the hell is that about?” says a Christian.

“I can’t tell whether or not I’m being told stuff, or if I am actually experiencing some sort of memory but if I am experiencing a memory and I’m not just being given a memory in that regard, and it is hard to tell in a particular sort of way then I was under the impression that a lot of Irish people could be really quite evil and you can’t trust them. Lem may have wanted to help them but I as a Scottish person knew that it wasn’t quite that simple. No they were actually becoming somewhat deeply evil. And so there were some Irish people who you could have conversations with and try to help, but there were a decent number of Irish people who were just angry bitter peasants, who had real darkness in their hearts and that you if you talked to them, you’d get stabbed or something like that and so you might want to hold them if they were children or you might want to, you know, pray for them if they were struggling but you wouldn’t be able to just walk up to them on the street and start talking to them, because they were not capable of handling that sort of closeness. They would just take advantage of it and so that’s what I was thinking she was.” says Lacey.

“So who are these people then?” says an Irish woman.

“ no excellent question displaced landowners people who had runoff to Dublin, who were very poor people who were suffering. Some of them had already had. Some of them were displaced landowners some of them were probably people who have lived in Ireland and Dublin and we’re just angry about what was happening or angry about themselves and it was so tempting to try to help them but I just knew if there’s reincarnation, I just knew that they were dangerous as could be if they were really were not people you could just walk up to you, have a conversation with, and expected to go particularly well, because I knew that they would probably try to stab you or steal you or curse you or something because I probably I tried talking to them on occasion and die if there’s been carnation, I’d probably try talking to them and I think one of them might have said something to me along the lines of like kind of like you’re lucky you’re Scottish or something like that sort of like are you a good Scott’s woman or bad Scott’s up in sort of like what makes you tech and I took too long to answer and so they probably assumed that I was good and you know maybe I was maybe I wasn’t but they were not. They were not friendly people you couldn’t just walk up to them and have a blind conversation, they were really very vicious and really mean how does that not make sense if you think about it even if that’s even if I wasn’t there this could’ve this could be true, because they were obviously very angry and so know that the people that had lived on the land will probably well yet homeless and living in Dublin and so they didn’t seem like poor people. Necessarily, they seemed probably somewhat educated or somewhat intelligent and then they were just incredibly angry, incredibly angry and yet lame if there’s reincarnations probably had tried talking to them or I I don’t see it I think I did I know what I think. I tried talking to them and he was more cautious but then I don’t think if there’s reincarnation that he fully heard my argument, I don’t think he completely understood what I was trying to explain to him because I think he thought that you couldn’t talk to them, but that if you did, somehow they’d open up to you and love with abound and everything would be great and I thought it was the opposite that they would actually be meaner to you and I still think that I think that you can’t really trust the Irish and you know what I don’t. It’s weird it’s like I know that there maybe not pure evil necessarily, but I would not. I would not trust them. I might trust them now in some weird way, but it’s like I wouldn’t trust him at the same time I think he thought they were better people than I did. I think he thought they were somehow Catholic and sweet or something like that maybe I’m wrong but I think he might’ve thought they were Catholic and sweet and joyful and I thought that they were sort of kind of like the Indians that they had like a lot of deities and there was witchcraft and that they were probably not the safest people to get into a fight with, but that they were certainly not people to just cozy enough to especially if they were in a crisis they just didn’t seem like people to get into a real close you know intimate tightknit relationship with if they were you know really troubled and it was something like that. I know he was straight and I don’t think he betrayed me after all, but but I am, I don’t even know if there’s been Carnation this could just be coming to me out of nowhere, but if there is the no, I think we had a sort of misunderstanding potentially or there wasn’t one and then someone invented one I don’t know.

Him know he does the thing you know he may have been way too trusting of them. I have some impression of them that was basically just nonsense and which is sad.

And what did I think she was doing? I thought she was I thought that him OK I had several theories, but one of them was that she was a drug addict that’s some hoe and that’s some hoe that somehow shit that’s so much she had him that she was under the influence that she was under the influence of some sort of drug. And that maybe I was paranoid. I was terrified that I was a homosexual and I wasn’t one. I’m not one, but I was really worried that I was so I thought maybe I was one that she had somehow been very intuitive and sensitive and sort of been influenced by the idea on an artistic level And then that she had sort of you know in her inebriated state gotten the idea that she should come on to me which is actually not completely crazy but no I was it was that was sort of that. She was somehow. Hi you know then, so she was drunk and high and you know, somehow being drunk and high, that she was somehow Just extremely sensitive to the moment, and that she had sort of come on to me as a sort of inebriated idea.” says Lacey.

“ that’s not the way that I did it though.” says Maggie.

“ I didn’t know the difference necessarily or I just ignored it.” says Lacey.

“ why would you ignore that subtle signal?” says Maggie.

“ it was too subtle, possibly it was too subtle for me, but also possibly because I picked up on subtle signals with other people, and then they lie to me and tell me that I was crazy.” says Lacey.

“ and if there is reincarnation, this is a sore spot for the Irish people because the Scottish people are possibly very intuitive and they controlled us by fooling you people into thinking you were crazy.” says Maggie.

“ this interesting but no I definitely thought I was crazy potentially but not for certain not for certain but but you know you don’t want to offend people, inappropriately, and so yes, I didn’t want to offend you or anyone else, so I just assumed you know until things became more obvious just assume someone’s not interested.” says Lacey.

“ how many guys hurt you with that?” says Maggie.

“ oh, no, I mean, probably over a dozen before I even knew who you were before I even met you.” says Lacey.

“ so I have a tractive to you and you’re not attracted to women. What if I was a guy?” says Maggie.

“ if you were a guy, I probably would’ve found you attractive but you weren’t a guy you were a woman.” says Lacey.

“ you know truthfully, if I was actually a man and I’m trans if I would just prefer to be a man in heaven, I’m still angry because I’m so confused about why you wouldn’t know.” says Maggie.

“ because it’s just so out of the blue.” says Lacey.

“ no it’s not out of the blue ice set the entire thing up for us to go golfing you were supposed to know that that was lesbian.” says Maggie.

“ yeah but you know it wasn’t necessarily to me, sir no, I would’ve found you attractive you look somewhat like Joe, but you’re blonder no you would if you would’ve been my type if you were mad as a person but but you were you were still into drugs, and that was very disturbing obviously and I don’t think you fully understood how feminine I actually am, and then I’m a bit a bit more dainty than your rough matter would allow like I didn’t understand what you were doing, which is actually sort of a mark of refinement and tolerance and concern for other people and I’m sorry that bothers you but that’s probably probably just who I am.” says Lacey.

“ you know you were a lot better at golf than I thought you were going to be and it did irritate me.” says Maggie.

“ why is that so annoying to you if you were on a date with me in your mind?” says Lacey.

“Because I’m a dog!” says Maggie.

“Well that’s between you and God then.” says Lacey.

“ You know you’re very self-righteous person a lot of people like you are. Why didn’t you read her cues that she wasn’t attracted to you?” says Lem.

“because I assumed I assumed that she was a jerk.” says Maggie.

“ a jerk. She’s a feminine straight woman you’re describing a man who is a jerk! That doesn’t even make any sense Maggie.” says Lem.

“ oh, I think we a lot of us did!” says Messiah College.

“You know she’s obviously not though, so why did you think she was?” says a UND history professor.

“ because they don’t do their homework.” says Jim Craft trying to be funny.

“ oh, that was so so that was a really good joke Jim.” says Barbara Streisand.

“So I don’t think you guys understood. Why did you think she was a jerk?” says the UND history professor.

“Because she was so sexy!” says Messiah College.

“That’s just her being Scandinavian to some degree. She is! But…there are also a lot of blondes at UND. Or there was back then. So…it was not…weird.” says UND.

“Yeah why are Americans like that? Why do we have no freaking clue what’s going on in other parts of the world or other parts of our country?” says a Black man.

“Alright well Maggie the point of this post was just sort of make fun of myself because I think I gave you the wrong idea. You know the irony, though is if you had been a man I wouldn’t be surprised if you would’ve never even noticed me.” says Lacey.

“That is not true!” says Maggie. “There is no reason for that! You’re not unfeminine!” 

“But for whatever reason, even if we found her attractive, we didn’t really ever notice her. It’s just the way it is. I don’t think you would’ve. I really don’t.” says Michael, who was a philosophy student.

“Why didn’t we notice her?” says Louis.

“Because she was just so plain looking!” says a man

“She was modest and violently sexually oppressed by her psychopathic parents, but let’s see what you think if she wears the clothes that you wanted her to wear. Take a look at her now.” says God.

“Hey…I mean she looks hotter than I thought she was gonna look and that’s not even like that much make-up or any plastic surgery. No it’s just the clothes that I thought she should wear and the make-up I thought she should have. What do I think? I mean oh my God it’s like I’m gonna puke. She’s so extraordinarily sexy and attractive!” says a Millennial man.

“What is it that you wanted from her then. Some sort of combination?” says God.

“So let’s do a combination and see what you think!” says Prince William, rolling his eyes.

“I mean I don’t like that.” he says.

“Are you attracted to all of them?” says God.

“Yes!” he says.

“So then what bothers you?” says God.

“I don’t know what his problem is but I’m losing interest. Lacey what was the Conversion Therapy you were trying to do to my daughter?” asks Maggie’s mom.

“The idea… was that I was going to mother her, so I thought that you were probably a shit mother, and that you fucked her up psychologically, so I was going to help her by sort of being there for her in a more loving maternal way.” says Lacey.

“So that is very much a premise of conversion therapy that lesbians are damaged by their mothers and homosexual men are damaged by their fathers because of lack of love. So I’m guessing-I’m guessing that that’s probably where Lacey came up with that idea.” says an Englishman.

“So I don’t really understand but it seems like you people don’t get the joke.” says Lacey.

“The joke is that she’s a ditz, Maggie.” says Lem.

“I don’t get why that’s funny.” says Maggie.

“Well it’s funny to some people. I think it’s funny because I’m so serious and studious and intense but at the end of the day I sometimes come with totally psychotic ideas that aren’t really actually psychotic. They’re actually possibly brilliant, but there’s an element of sort of humor in them.” says Lacey.

“I’ve made fun of you.” says Maggie to Lacey.

“Was the joke that I was a raging lesbian, who was madly in love with you, and I was just an idiot?” says Lacey, mocking Maggie.

“YES!” says Maggie like she’s God.

“Well I was straight and a ditz and you could’ve made jokes about me, but you had the wrong joke.” says Lacey. “And frankly, I kind of wonder if you’re a little bit of a rapist weirdo.” 

“I might’ve even bragged of having a sexual conquest with you that never even happened because I am such a worthless fuck…and honestly I am curious to know if anyone ever believed that or if they just thought I was psychotic.” says Maggie.

“The Illuminati believed you, and we’ve been torturing her and starting wars because of it Maggie!” says Katy Perry. “We are so jaded towards people like her, that we just assumed that you the lesbian were automatically the Godly person.” 

“Yeah you were part of the reason I’ve hated her so much because you really do bullshit and we didn’t realize you had either personality disorder or that you are a really evil-hearted person.” says Chris Hayes to Maggie Lake.

“Yes!” says Louis.

“No, I mean we never had any sexual contact. I probably sexually assaulted her if anything.” says Maggie Lake.

“What the fuck made you think that she was attracted to you?” says Chris Hayes.

“Why the hell did you people go on such a self-righteous rampage again some random person?” says a reader

“For personal reasons! Diego-boredom, existential fear. Stuff like that, I’ll say for now.” says Diego.

“ I just got the sense that she was like…into me??” says Maggie.

“Didn’t she flirt?” says Chris.

“Ahh…not sure.” says Maggie.

“Mm. That might have been flirting.” says Chris.

“What was it?” asks Maggie.

“She was humoring you.” says Tsar Putin.

“Why!?” says Maggie.

“Because you’re funny. Or she thought you were. And she was trying to discern her orientation. And…I don’t think she thought it would matter.” says another Katie.

“Oh!” says Maggie.

“So! What does your ‘Oh!’ mean!??” says Lem.

“She’s not pretty.” says Maggie.

“EXCEPT SHE’S WAY OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE!” says Lem. “GROW-UP!”

“I hate that she’s such a straight woman! So cute! Aww!!” says Maggie, mocking her.

“So…you have no concern for her humanity at all!??” says Lem.

“Mmm. …No.” says Maggie.

“Right. …You know if you did…you’d understand what happened.” says Lem.

“What happened?” asks Maggie.

“Why do you want to know?” asks Lem.

“To harm that KIKE breeder. She’s so hateful and bigoted. BITCH!” says Maggie.

“She sounds like me.” says the PA shooter, Matt. …”Maggie…that’s your imagination. Not reality.”

“I lie. I tell people bad things about my family and friends. Things that never happened.” says Maggie. “I’ve done it for years. It’s a mental illness I have.”

“YUP! And Lacey has tried to tell the Illuminati that for years.” says Matt, the shooter.

“My parents tend to be in denial about all of my problems. They apparently still are.” says Maggie. “WOAH!”

“She’s mentally-ill.” says Matt the shooter. “I mean Maggie.”

“So…?” says Lem to Maggie.

“I don’t like…feeling…stupid.” says Maggie.

“Maggie you’re never going to understand…until you empathize!” says Lem.

“So she’s a ditz!?” says Maggie.

“Yes!” says Lem.

“Okay. So…she felt… She believed she was ugly?” says Maggie.

“No. She’s…not that…certain. So…she knows she’s extremely beautiful. But she also doesn’t. It’s so damn simple Maggie. She can look in the mirror. But…people’s opinions still should matter. That’s normal!!! …So…your opinion and everyone else’s opinion mattered. And still matters.” says Lem.

Later.

“I don’t care! I just don’t care.” says Maggie.

“THEN GET OVER HER!!!! YOU STUPID FUCKING BITCH!!!” yells Lem.

“I just…don’t…GET IT!!” says Maggie.

“GROW A BRAIN!!!” yells Lacey.

“Okay…HOW THE FUCK CAN YOU NOT BE ATTRACTED TO ME…AND THEN…ACT SO…SEXUAL!?” she says.

“Is it sexual?” says Lacey.

“It is to me!” says Maggie.

“Let’s keep going.” says Lacey.

“Okay. But it’s sexual to me.” says Maggie.

“Well to me…it’s like going to a Christmas concert.” says Lacey.

“The emotional state? The emotional state you’re in is like going to a Christmas concert?” says Maggie.

“YES! …It’s merry and cheerful. Not necessarily sexual.” says Lacey.

“I’m not usually like this.” says Maggie.

Lacey thinks. “I thought that was just your personality.” says Lacey.

“NO!! That was me in love.” says Maggie.

“Oh. No. I thought that was just your personality.” says Lacey.

“NO!! That’s me in love.” says Maggie.

Lacey looks disturbed. “I thought I was giving you effective Conversion Therapy….possibly.”

“Ha!! NO!!!” yells Maggie.

“Dammit!” says Lacey. “So I wasn’t helping you?”

“Mm…no.” says Maggie.

“I thought I’d had a positive impact on your life.” says Lacey.

“No. You did!” she says. “I realized I was homosexual.”

“Why didn’t you know that!? You had so many female friends!” says Lacey.

“Do you think I was sleeping with them all?” asks Maggie.

“Mm…almost.” says Lacey.

Maggie laughs. “I was.”

“Literally!!??” says Lacey.

“No. …Close.” she says.

“HOW DID THEY NOT NOTICE!?” says Lacey.

“What do you mean?” asks Maggie.

“Right now you’re reminding me of a lot of men. I can there’s one woman in particular, who I can easily see in my head she had glasses. She was kind of tall, dark hair, but she was super like feminine, and yet not, and kind of polished looking she seemed kind of. She seemed very sort of professional, and well bred or rich or something, and she definitely had the vibe of somebody who was straight. And I know she would have stopped me ship. She was the sort of woman who would’ve treated me like absolute fucking shit if I’d seen her on her own. But when we were together, it’s three of us she was nice to me, and it was absolutely baffling to me. I couldn’t figure out where the hell everyone was being so nice to be around you. So it’s not just that you might’ve told people that we were together and we were not together but I was humoring you in a way and I’m sorry, but obviously I’ve never done it since I never did it before that and honestly it was a very bizarre experience, but it was interesting because I don’t think that was even what it was. I just I can’t stand these women there like this Maggie because they’re so fake. I mean they’re obviously closeted, bisexual or lesbian, but they are so violently heterosexual and snobby so freaking snobby there impossible to be friends with.

And then you had all of them amuse me slightly. You had all of them just buzzing around you like you were a flower and they were beers and they were just thrilled to be in your presence and I could never figure it out because I thought why is everyone so cheerful around her because I’m not a lesbian I’m not attracted to women and end for me it wasn’t real at all for me. It just wasn’t real. I just thought no you know I’m I’m straight dick, but they went full throttle whether it was real or not for them they went full throttle. So you’re eat you’re either very evil and you’re tricking straight people into thinking that they’re gay or they really were bisexual and it was sort of disturbing because there were so freaking many of them it’s like why are they here? How the fuck does this make sense? I’m sorry for swearing, and I think that’s what irritates me though but you because you’re blaming me For you becoming a lesbian or some stupid shit like that that’s just what you are if I did something to you I sure as hell did not mean to you. Yes I didn’t mean to an honestly I don’t even think that’s possible. I think that’s sick that you would accuse me of that potentially. Amy is out your family thought I’m straight, and that just by being my friend or pretending to be my friend that you suddenly had become a lesbian that is so backward that is so disgusting.

And I just I can’t figure out. I cannot quite figure this out because whether it’s allowed in heaven, or not, Mickey, you are lesbian or bisexual or something or you’re a transsexual man and then you’re straight, but I I don’t transgender woman rather in your state or transgender man rather in your straight Arm so I don’t quite understand it. How did you not understand that you were a lesbian when there were like was jazzy or something and I mean never so there’s a woman named jazzy or Jade or some thing and then they were like other women to you, and you were friends with all of these women And they just loved you. I remember asking you how did you become so popular and you told me it was the drugs you said I do drugs and it makes people like me. I don’t think that’s what happened. I don’t think people just fall you know, however heels for drug attic’s I think there was something you were doing that was charming to certain people and that might’ve been slightly evil but I also wonder if there were a lot of bisexual people who thought you were fantastic and I don’t quite understand how you would not realize that you were attracted to all of these people.” says Lacey.

“ that’s a very good point. Actually, she did have an exorbitant number of female friends.” says her father.

“ oh, some girls can be very popular, but that’s not quite what I’m saying it wasn’t just like popularity it was it was like everywhere we went. There were all these smiling women who come up to her and just be fighting over her like oh hi Maggie hi and they’re always laughing. They’re always laughing, some thing was always very funny very charming. Just some thing was delightful. I don’t know what it was, but it was just delightful to everybody apparently. and it was just like oh my gosh Magis here everything‘s all right everything is jolly and I thought well that’s a Lubin CTH You’re Pierce but I guess you know we care about Maggie and end and her mental health issues and her drug addiction, because I was very concerned about you I was trying to parent you so I was trying to parent you for the most part and I thought my gosh this woman cares about don’t know why, but it’s awfully nice. It’s a little much at times but I’m going to try to help her kick her drug habit. I’m going to use all of that immense concert this shit that’s for me to really help her be a better person. No the thing is, I’m not attracted to women so you would have all these women around and I was thinking oh you know that’s a little weird but then because I’m not attracted to women I would very quickly think oh well that’s OK you know I guess it’s not a problem There’s nothing wrong with that. I suppose it’s just it was a little weird at first, but it’s very there’s a very peculiar singular experience, because if I was not attracted to you or women in general, and so the initial very initial spark of jealousy was there, but then it was just totally disappear almost instantly because I’m not there was nothing for it to stick on and so and so it’s like oh this is weird, but not really Because it left a very weird sort of psychological state for me because I thought oh what is going on in our all his people supposed to be my friend or or what are we doing? Just standing here why are we all just here? What are we all talking about the zoom in or just smiling? It’s very bizarre And I have to say there were quite a few of those women so again I have to ask how did you not know? How did you not know you were such a player almost make you had how many girls did you even Buzzing around you?” says Lacey.

“ oh, probably eight or nine! There were probably eight or nine women.” says Maggie.

“Then why did you not know!?” says Lacey.

“I wasn’t in love with any of them.” says Maggie.

“WHAT DIFFERENCE WOULD THAT MAKE!?” says Lacey.

“I’m not demi sexual. But…I am…less attracted to you than I ever was. Umm…they just weren’t exciting. They were…suck cock suckers.” she says.

“But Maggie…something happened. You couldn’t have been that blind.” says Lacey.

“Yeah. Okay. I was a jerk. …You knew I was homosexual though right?” says Maggie.

“No. Yes and no.” says Lacey.

“So…you saw my possible latent homosexuality…as treatable potentially with experimental Conversion Therapy.” says Maggie.

“YES!” says Lacey.

“You’re being sexual.” she says.

“NO! I’m definitely not.” says Lacey.

“So you mean actual Conversion Therapy nothing sexual?” says Maggie.

DUH!!!!” bellows Lem, losing his patience.

“Yes. OF COURSE I DID. WOW!!!!” says Lacey.

“So…what did you do?” says Maggie, crying.

“I’ve already told you. …I tried to mother you! …Possibly as a sister-figure. …And I tried to…encourage feminine dress. And feminine…identity. Increase your self-esteem.” says Lacey.

“But you talked to me…so…kindly when I was…feeling sexually intimate.” says Maggie.

“I didn’t think it mattered.” says Lacey.

“Because it was just my feelings.” says Maggie.

“YES! YOUR FEELINGS YOUR PROBLEM!” says Lacey.

“Lacey…that’s MEAN!” says Maggie.

“Well…you were fun! I liked playing golf.” says Lacey.

“Yeah. But I was so…giddy.” says Maggie.

“I just…thought it would…go away. Like a…passing, fleeting emotional response to…confusion. You know? Just…nothing.” says Lacey. “I wouldn’t have imagined we’d necessarily be friends. But I thought it would be nice.”

“So you genuinely keep expecting me to be so SOOO over it?? Like…it really barely even happened?” says Maggie.

“Yes. Yes.” says Lacey. “Yes, indeed.”

“So you just…are straight. …And…you have no idea what effect you have on people. AT ALL!!” says Maggie.

“What happened?” says Lacey.

“I fell in love!” says Maggie.

“CONGRATULATIONS!! WHAT HAPPENED!!??” yells Lem, losing his temper.

“Ahh…I guess…I imagined us living together?!?” says Maggie.

“OH FUCK!!!” yells JFK, in terror.

“Oh dear…you didn’t!?” says Lacey.

Maggie blinks and cries.

“What gave you that idea!?” says Lacey.

“Oh no! It’s just…what a person does.” says Maggie.

“Mmm. I did. Until my heart was smashed into pieces too much. …People told me it was offensive.” says Lacey. “I’m sorry. That’s an awful lot of analysis.”

“Yes.” says Maggie. She cries.

“I’m sorry I tried to mother you. I was trying to fix the mother wounds that homosexual women supposedly have. I’m sorry…” says Lacey.

“You were very caring.” says Maggie.

“Yes. I really tried.” says Lacey.

“I assumed it was sexual. But…it did feel cold.” says Maggie. “Not cold as a mom. Like…cold as a lover.”

Lacey smiles kindly.

“I’m not your mother.” says Maggie.

“Okay????” says Lacey, confused.

“I really thought I was better than her…” she murmurs.

“So! What else did you do? This love you claim exists? Or was it just a stupid thing you overinflated out of spite and jealousy?” says Lacey.

“I thought we were good friends.” she says.

“Oh! Like…super close?” says Lacey.

“YEAH!” says Maggie.

“We were not. Not for me. But Becca was possibly bisexual. I thought she was straight and safe to be close to. But she was possibly bisexual.” says Lacey.

“Ouch, Karrie.” Maggie says.

“NO!! HER NAME IS LACEY!!!” bellows Lem, ready to rip off Maggie’s head.

“Thank you, Lem.” says Lacey. “‘Ouch?’”

“SHE HURT ME!” says Maggie.

“Who!?” says Lacey.

“You!!” yells Maggie.

“With the comment I just made about Becca?” asks Lacey.

“NO!! You stupid bitch. This is my show! In my head!!” yells Maggie.

“Ahh…Maggie…what are you referring to?” says Lacey.

“You!!” yells Maggie.

“That’s gibberish.” says Lacey. “Maggie. Becca was the bisexual. Possibly. Not me.”

“She hated me.” says Maggie.

“Yeah! It was odd. …But I thought it had something to do with your drug addiction.” says Lacey.

Maggie laughs. “No. I think…she was confused…in the same way I was.”

“YEAH! I’m not attracted to women Maggie.” says Lacey.

“We got SO carried away.” says Maggie.

“Maggie…how exactly do you expect women to be friends? See…you don’t seem to relate. She really is capable of being friends in a way you aren’t.” says one of Maggie’s “friends.”

“Why was I ever friends with her? DAMMIT!” says Maggie.

“Yeah.” says Lacey

“Goodnight!” says Lem.
