If you think I'm a psychopath, how does that figure with Stephen's explosions being the stuff that attracts police?


I think that he's the one who had more unresolved issues than me.


While this whole 'unable to love' thing isn't the reality: I'm fully capable of love, but I realised that people hated me.


And most of my close relationships were professional ones before the saga. But honestly after my journey, I'm in the market for friends rather than co-workers.


My office job is supplying the bare minimum social contact, and that's helping. But everything else has been all about the work. Me too, but yeah NYE was when I realised I was alone.

And I think we've all seen that the carrot and the stick are both crappy motivators. Why shouldn't I want to chill rather than constantly proving myself?


I like my tapes, and as I say, if I'm actively surveilled, then I put them up for my own self-interest rather than for entertainment value.
