If I were sent to a normal state prison I would be hyperventilating and crying in anticipation of being locked up in gen pop with a bunch of dangerous criminals and fearing for my life. If I found out I was sentenced to life at ADX Florence I would be depressed but calm.

23 hours a day by yourself with tv and I presume books, 1 hour a day to exercise. 0 concern for your safety or really anything you’re not expecting. Might be boring but it would be little different from my current life - no gooning it up on the SA forums, but I wouldn’t have to go to work either.

My biggest fears would be the food might taste bad or the bed would be uncomfortable.

you might have some misconceptions about what prolonged isolation actually does to a person
the U.N. classifies solitary confinement in excess of 15 days as a form of torture

Instead of being in prison I think I’d like to live in one of the small islands out of assassins creed black flag a little sand a lot of water and there are often hidden treasures on them so you have something to do the more I think about it the more I wish assassins creed black flag was real

Yeah, it's a single feed that shows "recreational, educational, and religious programming".

This is what the cells look like:





If I found out I was going to be spending the rest of my life in that cell I'd be doing my best to end it beforehand.

The schedule is
4 hours of The 700 Club and related religious programming
Several hours of public access programming
Several hours of weather channel programming
2 hours for an edited-for-content movie drawn from a small pool of donated films (including Gigli, Left Behind, and Superbabies)
6 hours of Big Bang Theory

There should be some kind of prison tourism program where people agree to be incarcerated for a month or two and treated just the same as the actual prisoners because so many people are interested in this

you guys are going to be freaked out but I spend the vast, vast majority of my waking hours at home alone or trapped at work. Even most of my social events are spent with people I actively hate and can’t wait to get away from. And yet I’m fine.

not sure if this is ironic, but 60 days in exists. it's reality tv, so i'm sure it's somewhat scripted. but it's good for a laff
