Eventually I'll join a fictional community like this and that's the last anyone will ever see of me.

For a while, I've been trying to travel to the past in my astral form via lucid dreaming in order to tell and warn my teenage self about certain things that will come to pass, but I always end up in this school, in the cafeteria, without any clothes on. At least they're cool about it.

I'm so glad I already have one of these communities that I help run I don't need a second one.

I met the author of Psychic High School at an Indie Web Camp. I love the whole idea of it - and this isn't something that could work well on anything other than a labor of love, independent space on the web.

Long live the open web and authors like this one.

Back in the early nineties, there was an old school BBS version of something like this in Austin called "Illuminati University" (maybe)? It got sort of co-opted by Steve Jackson Games for an RPG, but before that it was like this.

Does anyone know where I could find the original posts? Do they exist anywhere?

What are the chances of two "dark" "in the classroom" posts in a row?

So, these (or should I say 'Theese') Psychic youth? Homeroom teacher P. Orridge is pretty much a stickler, I hear.
