    Cry Tears of fucking joy that the news was fake and to cause drama.

    …And then try to find and strangle whoever decided to make stressful, boring hell.

    I would never be sure that this isn’t just another season of my TV show, so, revenge or suicide. I can’t let them get another season.

    Wait why was this recommended to me? Am I actually in the Truman show and this is some sort of hint that is telling me to break out?

    Man, hard to say. All I know is, I’d be a nervous wreck. Finding out that your whole life was a lie and all the moments that I thought were my own, especially private ones, were broadcast to the world. I would feel badly hurt and violated. So I suppose it would be one of two options, depending on my mental state:

    • I made peace with it: I would find myself in a strange and unfamiliar world. I would consider everything I’ve been taught up to this point suspect at best, so my next move would be information gathering.
    • I didn’t make peace with it: I would become a whirlwind of emotions that I can’t manage. I would be a person that had a life that never existed with friends and family who were just paid actors and to top it all off, there’s the mastermind who had no qualms putting me in such a horrific position. For ratings and money, no less. I think I would be overcome with grief, confusion and fury. As for my next move? I honestly haven’t a clue, but it wouldn’t be pretty for anyone involved.

    1. stabilize my living situation; my life has just been upended, but there will for sure be many, many people who would help me integrate into society, whether it be housing, jobs, education, etc.

    2. use my fame to gain wealth; either sue the show producers, or reach an agreement for a big paycheck. then, partner with hella companies for interviews, photoshoots, product endorsements, whatever. write my own biography.

    3. make season 2, starring me on a new island, new characters, new story. the producers would pay me big bucks for that shit. milk the franchise for all its worth.

    I would hunt down the people who put me in that situation and everyone who was in on it and burn them alive.

    Just move somewhere in the global South where the show isn’t broadcast/as popular and I’d be just another white man, and try to start over?
