Dear past-me of [exact time glomarized; .5-5 years ago],
You are about to be recruited to a secret world-saving org. (Y’know, like Leverage, except it’s a member of the dark forest of Leverage-likes that operate even less publicly than Leverage).
Don’t join.
They will give you very compelling reaons to join. Don’t ignore them. But take into account that I, your future self, also heard all of those things, decided to join, and now regret it.
Don’t. Instead, please continue that other thing you were doing, before they asked you to join there thing. The other thing will probably have better results for you and the world.
This warrants a longer post, but on pain of that post sitting in my obsidian with a “draft” tag for ages, having approximately zero causal impact on the outside world, I’m posting this now.
(all of my replies to messages concerning this will be delayed by 0 or more months for glomarization purposes)
