Don't worry, since they're only silent and not totally isolated (and not even totally silent anyway) they PROBABLY won't go insane.

And there is definitely nothing creepy about reciting mantras on command to everyone all day every day. Nope.

don't forget that part.

so either we're in ‘thought crime’ territory, or we're in a place where lying is mandatory. i'm sure that'll work out great.
