Musket and pike, snow clearing, tetra lemma, Frontline experiences

— Activity

Thinking about the musket and pike battle system: morale checks, with specific ranges for knock-on rolls and the possibility of a surrender affecting all units in the phase.

Trigger / KO 1 / KO 2 KO 3
Same / 1/2. 2/3. 3/3
After 3 hex fail check surrender

We have the extraordinary capacity for original thought. However, people often engage in virtue signaling and mindless repetition of absurdly truncated statements.

We are conscious in the purest sense to create novel modes of existence, particularly relations. It seems Kant was emphasizing this obliquely.

All countries are being dissolved in the acid bath of the great reset.

Death is a relationship with nature.

Life is a relationship with the other, possibly each other, but not in a naïve fashion.

Which is more critical: application or acquisition of knowledge?

I only talk to think of an even better joke.

— Report

Report on my self-willed resignation:

Dear Elliot,

It was good to meet you finally, but unfortunately, far too late in the day. You mentioned that you are above the fray, but the specificity of these events cannot be ignored. Trotsky said, "You may not be interested in war, but war is interested in you."

The maintenance section is very much Frontline activity. Specifically, why OSHA is building a private fiefdom in front of your eyes is risky for your company. I've seen this before; a friend of mine at a semiconductor company experienced a similar issue. The key person left with loyal supporters.

Yoshi not only didn’t want me in his group but actively ostracized me, ignoring me, and insisting on speaking English due to his own insecurities. I had to sacrifice ¥80,000 to get my point across.

I’m happy for anything to become a tableau of distant memories which I can intensify to some degree.

The study of military conflict with all its ramifications, pursued to a perceivable end.

Trump's use of the word energy is a masculinization of the feminine concept of relationship.

I still maintain an unbroken Will. That’s the key.

Wondering, Thinking, Reflecting, Talking

I can only have Frontline experiences and philosophy.

When I say philosophy, I mean that it is based upon the tetra lemma which is exposed only by the deepest thinkers such as Nagarjuna and Kant.

A terrible byproduct of compulsory education is that you see yourself in a mirror all the time. You see your own body often just partially at a distance, through a glass darkly.
