"We don't like killing archive staff, but we really hope they die," 🤨
Don't get me wrong, I have no attachment to Jonathan Sims, but this REALLY does make it a rather... Consistent habit by this point.

I'm sorry to hear that. Hope the place blows up one day 🤞

Alright. Not counting the previous archivist and staff, how many have you lost again?...

Well your first mistake was working there. But... I won't. I'm not going to start any fights there. I do intend to see about some worker's comp, however.

You know, I almost wish I could've seen that.

So it really IS a hobby there, isn't it?

Wow, you know, I'm trying to remember what caused that "anomalous" existence to even happen... Oh, right! It was a job I was sent on while working as an assistant in the Institute Archives. Crazy how that happens, isn't it?

Does anyone here actually know what happened to Emma Harvey and Sarah Carpenter? I found the reports that said they died in separate fires. I couldn't find anything else about it though.

I can only guess suddenly getting dizzy because it feels like the floors and walls are twisting around me are another side effect :/

What do you mean your job offers a 401K? Mine just gave me trauma and chronic pain. Fun fact! Your mind is not the only thing the spiral distorts, and human bones don't like that!! I guess if I stayed there, my bones probably would've stopped being human ones.

I'm not in the Spiral anymore, any weird doors are not me!

This bowling alley feels like the Stranger to me.

Americans make this look very easy. I think my fingers are too long to hold the ball right.

They're blasting jazz music now

The people I'm living with are taking me bowling! I don't think I've ever actually been before. I'm not sure what to expect, but it sounds fun at least.

You would think escaping the spiral would return your sense of sanity. You would be wrong.

A close-up of a spiral galaxy, seen face-on. Its center glows brightly. From the sides of the galaxy’s core emerge spiral arms which wind through the round disc of the galaxy, filled with shining pink spots where stars are forming and more dark-red dust. Some faint stars can be seen around the galaxy, as well as a particularly bright star in the lower left of the image.

🦑💫This NASA/ESA Hubble image features the spiral galaxy Messier 77, also known as the Squid Galaxy.

It would take more than a century between the discovery of the galaxy and the realisation that the ‘spiral nebulae’ scattered across the sky were not part of our own galaxy!

Happy Neil day!

Now that I think about it, Emma and Sarah went together usually, so she had to have too, right??
It's not like I can ask anyone I guess.

I'm starting to wonder now exactly how much the other assistants knew. I mean, Emma handled a lot of the busy work, and Gertrude seemed to trust her a lot. She had to have known something, right? Sarah started after I did, did she know anything either?

Life advice! If an old person invites you to go through an unsettling and confusing door, don't! That's the hallway dimension and it will eat you. Not a pleasant experience, 0/10.

No wonder Elias chose him as his replacement...

I still have a sense of time, so that's nice. Time didn't really happen inside the Spiral.

I see the Magnus Institute has kept up its streak of killing its Archive staff. Don't work there haha.

So I just got back to reality maybe a week ago? Two weeks? I can't tell anymore, really.
What happened???

Hello.
To whoever pulled that stunt at Gertrude's funeral, you're sick. Her family is distraught by your actions, and we will be taking action against this.
Our eyes right now are on the breekon and hope delivery services.
