Chapter 14: The Architecture of the Abyss
akascrubber commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 14: The Architecture of the Abyss
After visiting Dachau. I later visited the US Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC which showed the terrible crimes committed on a wider scale. The experience was profoundly unsettling. But, Dachau was more personal and visceral. -
Miles seems much better adjusted. !0 years living with a good person who serves as a well-adjusted surrogate mom and frequent video conferencing with a good therapist have helped him. He still misses Troy, though. Miles is able to find and have sex with an appealing youthful gay male. Milles has developed a very good looking, hot body while at sea He has a general plan to visit the interesting spots in the states and continue his YouTube channel. He has a terrific financial backstop that enables him to live comfortably. Will he run across any of his online fans? Will he meet anyone from his past? What will he learn when he checks in with Erik? The problems from his past are still a mystery to us.

Chapter 14: The Architecture of the Abyss
akascrubber commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 14: The Architecture of the Abyss
Connecting what Cameron is doing to Dachau is horrifying and conclusive of his terrifying depravity, If Carter reaches the right people, the lid will be blown on his Nazi like scheme. No one can justify it, Cameron will be vilified and ruined and thrown out. I have visited Dachau which is a short train ride outside of Munich. The scary place , the stark photographs of inmates , the scarecrow bodies of those who died, the areas people were gassed and burned and the exhibits of regular life are beyond chilling. You cannot be emotionally impacted by the evidence of what was done. Showing Cameron is applying many of the Dachau methods will be universally explosive -
Chapter 4: The Town Hall
akascrubber commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 4: The Town Hall
Will could not lie to the people in the audience. He admitted the complicated green policy and new taxes were folly. The meeting eventually broke up A NDP colleague said she was empowered to offer him a senior NDP role if he switched parties. He declined. He said he was a dedicated Liberal Lisa Sternosti, his old friend and chief of staff came to him to talk politics. Will's view is that Dufresne knows the green plank is a killer issue. He wants Etienne to be forced to quit after the defeat. He is sabotaging Etienne who does not know it. Dufresne expects to be the next party leaders after Etienne and he will pick his people to run everything. Will Carter is not going to be given any position. He is going to be a backbencher and not tied to Dufresne's policies Lisa and Will agree on this near term outcome. She wants Will to hold on and expects Dufresne to fail miserably. Then the weakened Parity would turn to Will with his skills and high moral values to lead and resurrect them Well, these two have a plausible view on what may happen. It is going to be painful for them to endure this mess. -

Hollis, an uber driver, just had an unexpected life changing ride. He picked up a 78 year old gay man, Arthur, to take him to a distant care facility where he thought he would end out his life in the company of strangers. Along the way, Hollis learned about the happy life he had with his male party and stress he created living in the closet at his work. Unlike today, gay males were not widely tolerated and free to live as they choose. Talking to Arthus, Hollis realized he should stop being afraid of committing to his partner and sign a lease and live together in the open. He will try to make their relationship work

This is a phenomenally successful, fascinating mystery and romance story of a shifter , Kellar, who realizes he can heal sick shifters and along the way finds his earth mate, Tobyn. Together they seek to help others, re-build their pack and fight off and destroy the threat from the hunters who have killed over 1000 shifters. This is a great read that has captured the interest of a large number of fans. I note some have read it 5 times. You will not be disappointed to commit to reading it through.

I remember reading the prospectus offer for the initial Starbucks stock sale. It mentioned the risk of fluctuations of coffee bean availably and uncontrollable. weather impact.

Chapter 13: The Chemical Straitjacket
akascrubber commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 13: The Chemical Straitjacket
Elias was a hero who took 12 huge electro-shocks to his body and still managed to walk back and lay on his cot. Everyone knew what he took for them so the solutions could be swapped out. Harrows left after seeing...."the absolute, terrifying solidarity that had been forged in the crucible of Cameron's machine." The chemical punishment will fail. What happens next is critical. What will the inmates and Cameron/Vale do? -

Chapter 12: The Wireless is a Lie

So, Cameron will have a free hand to use insulin to control the inmates. This is sick and disgusting. I expect the men will be worried and soon realize they can be controlled at anytime. Any new troublemakers can be given insulin. -

Cameron is crossing a dangerous line. The patients will be given shots of insulin so the method will be known. Are the prison's medical type staff competent to know what dosage to use and not exceed safety levels? "Using insulin as a chemical restraint or weapon causes severe hypoglycemia (dangerously low blood sugar), which starves the brain of glucose. This leads to seizures, coma, permanent brain damage, and death. Because of these lethal risks, insulin is heavily regulated in correctional facilities, and medical professional standards require it to be strictly administered based only on legitimate clinical needs" -

For now, neither Vane nor Cameron are considering giving lobotomies to the troublemakers -

Cameron's walls did not stop the boys from rebelling. Now, he would apply Vane's remedy--drugs. The ringleaders would be sedated with insulin and the others should be cowered. Some bodies would be excessively shocked and tortured. This medical treatment cannot be publicly disclosed. Cameron is committing a crime. The prisoners would be much less capable of carrying out any tasks -

I bet the Chinese will not take kindly to be falsely accused of this cyber crime and will want revenge and might sic Western spy/financial agencies on Russia. China might be monitoring Russia. -
Chapter 11: The Stalag of the Soul
akascrubber commented on Topher Lydon's story chapter in Chapter 11: The Stalag of the Soul
I did not know about Lord Mounbatten and young boys. His public reputation was apparently solid. I remember he was killed by the IRA and considered a martyr and the Royal Marine Band Service has an annual gala musical event named after him in Albert Hall to raise money for related UK Naval charities -

Yani caught what appears to be Chinese manipulation of the crisis siphoning off billions of dollars. Only Andrew believes him. Tanaka gave him 60 days to prove his case or he will be toast. He has not yet found that Russia was behind the crime. He will eventually, I am sure Andrew met Will at their home. They have to go in different directions and cities. The Liberal Party election plan is a disaster and no one is listening to Will. I hope he keeps his seat. They ask Peter to take care of Jacob and be his manny. Peter is ready for ask and has a multi-part list of demands. Will agrees to his very expensive demands and signs on the dotted line The chaos is being handled. Andrew and Will are freed to what they do best. Things will undoubtably be even more troubling down the road. They are going to be assured in the meantime of Peter's good help and a well cared for Jacob. -

The man who broke the German code in WWII was later discovered in a gay relationship. He was not protected. "Alan Turing avoided prison in 1952 by accepting chemical castration after being convicted of "gross indecency" for a homosexual relationship." He committed suicide 2 years later. These were very sad times for gay men. Queen Elizabeth II granted Turing a posthumous royal pardon in 2013.
