Ladies. Strider needs a favour.

wild punctuation observation experiment
day thirteen
it seems exclamation points travel in packs
they shun the weaker ones and cast them out
but a single exclamation point doesnt last long on its own in this wilderness
especially with all these feral eights running around
theyre fucking vicious
and their population is growing by the day
i fear for my safety

What........
W8, are you making fun of me????????

[striderismo]

day fourteen
a few flocks of periods and a pack of question marks are moving into the area
i anticipate a brutal killing
question marks are docile even in groups
and the exclamation points have been hardened by the need to constantly defend themselves against the eights
the periods may stand a chance though
it remains to be seen
