Poor Ol’ Bee. I like that little droid more and more.

B2EMO
Long ago, B2EMO — often called Bee-two, or more simply, Bee — was a cutting-edge groundmech salvage assist unit fresh off the assembly line. Now very old and quite weary for a droid, Bee continues to serve the Andor family, a dedicated member of the clan tasked with towing scrap and assisting in their communications. https://instagr.am/p/ClCw8-mtRnF/

Looking at my journals from my late teens and throughout my 20s, I dissociated quite a lot. I have notes to myself about waking up, realizing I was doing something, like going up the steps to Mr Vice’s class or talking to R&K about a science fiction author on I had never heard of, and then recognized after I “woke up”.

It was pretty scary then, and still is a bit frightening now. I wrote that it feels like something else was driving my mind and body on autopilot, and I just would snap into consciousness at random, realizing that I was in a fog mentally, but the body just went on about the business of hanging out with pals at D&D or driving home from school, only to snap back into sharp focus later on.

There was a real disconnect from my body, and reality in general. I wonder how many people had the same vibe and even gave it a second thought?

I don’t have any alternative personalities or lost time that I know of, more of just coasting. A lot more than just “highway hypnosis ” or getting lost in a book though.

Like I mentioned, no alternate identities, but depersonalization and serialization certainly seem to have made an appearance.

The new year of 2000 was the dawn of a new century, a new millennium, and one of the feelings was… relief. An oversight in the way some computers managed dates called Y2K had caused many to think society was going to collapse over a minor date problem. Why were people so receptive to this idea? Who were the most susceptible? And what does this have to do with the American Far Right?
