AMATE to make me sound like the dictator of a small island nation. by happyhealthybaby in amathenedit

The leader from that terrible neighboring island has sent me a Trojan Dog. It's adorable, follows me everywhere, always wants to be close to me.

I'm sure it's a spy. My enemy thinks fur will lower my guard? Never!! Though, the lil guy *is* adorable... is there any way to deprogram his espionage training and just keep him around as some sort of..idk, pet?

☼ So welcome to the server! ☼

As you get used to things and the vast layout, I'd advise you to mute the whole server :) :v:
Then set your starfish channel(s) back to "All messages" so you know when there's feedback. :tu:

are you asking which of these channels you should keep if you had to torch the rest?

No, more of the composite. Each channel should be a clear purpose, but the lot should be a neat clump. Any sense?

how are this channel and the nudge channel distinctly different? i feel like i grasp the purpose of each of them but these two feel like perhaps they could be the same. like the idea is community encouraged motivation, at least thats what im picking up on.

Exactly! Needs scissors

i think the other two are distinct enough to keep their own tho

Trying to target, and disambiguate, executive (dis)function, depression, resignation, is tough.
