# what if we had a Message type
Message is an IntransitiveActivity?
```yaml
id: https://alice.social/activities/1
actor: https://alice.social
type: Message
to: https://bob.social
content: "hello bob"
```
representing rooms with context:
```yaml
id: https://alice.social/activities/1
actor: https://alice.social
type: Message
to: https://rooms.social/rooms/1/audience # inbox forwarding, probably
content: "hello room"
context: https://rooms.social/rooms/1 # verify inclusion how?
```
making the context into an actor:
```yaml
id: https://alice.social/activities/1
actor: https://alice.social
type: Message
to: # inbox forwarding, definitely
- https://rooms.social/rooms/1 # we need to deliver to the room actor
- https://rooms.social/rooms/1/followers # rooms.social or the room actor's client will forward to participants
content: "hello room"
context: https://rooms.social/rooms/1
```
use of bto/bcc?
```yaml
id: https://alice.social/activities/1
actor: https://alice.social
type: Message
content: "hello room" # arguably only the content needs to be signed? no need for canonicalization
context: https://rooms.social/rooms/1
```
