  1. The outies are the ones who stayed in Omelas, they and Lumon are the villains.

    The innies are the better parts of themselves, suppressed.

    Mark Scout is toxic; wallowing, immature, rageful, and refuses therapy.

    Helena is cruel and complicit.

    Bert Goodman told us he's going to Hell.

    Irving Bailiff is a mystery.

    Dylan George is aloof and immature.

    They are all selfish, eminently self-serving.

    "Who are you?"

    To each outie, not a person

  2. If you’ve read #UrsulaKLeGuin’s “The Ones Who Walk Away from #Omelas” (and if you haven’t, you should, and can do so here: utilitarianism.com/nu/omelas.p), I _highly_ recommend reading #IsabelJKim’s “Why Don’t We Just Kill the Kid in the Omelas Hole” in this month’s issue of @clarkesworld Magazine: clarkesworldmagazine.com/kim_0

    Oof.
