Yes, wise advice.
Those things are valuings.
I guess if after 8 years even the outline of my elemental thesis hasn’t been understood Im just too boring for the risk I ask that you take. In case you (or anyone) still want to consider taking that risk, I recommend you reread Nietzsche, or read some books you haven’t read before, and pay close attention whenever he mentions value, valuator, valuing, etc. Some clouds might dissipate and reveal the sheer heights Im calling you out from.
Anyway, you, unlike certain other persons Ive been trying to seduce to thought, know what and to which degree you value, and respect (value) your valuing, even if you have not understood yet that it is your very existence.
If you would realize this your power would be virtually absolute. Perhaps that is why you haven’t realized it.
It is a risky endeavour to understand me, especially for someone with some actual modicum of power. Capable is proof of that. For an ordinary person, understanding appears to simply mean liberation from depression.
I am virtually absolute, nigga!
Haha, I really liked that description.
Your recommendations are duly noted and sincerely acknowledged.
i wouldn’t know about these things if i wasn’t taught what they mean, and the learning of these things precedes any understanding i might have of how and why they would be valuable. such knowledge doesn’t become valuable until i put it to use… but i can’t put it to use until i understand what these things mean.
‘this is what a gram is, and this is valuable knowledge when you want to inform the dealer that you want x amount of smoke instead of y amount’, etc.
hate to break it to ya, but all this talk about ‘value’ has stretched and twisted the word so much it has become almost unrecognizable. like a new magic word that can mean anything. not only that, i can’t think of even one real, existential problem out in the world of biggsian ‘conflicting goods’ where a reading of VO by everyone involved would help them find a comprehensive solution. that’s what i’m into; solving real problems, not theoretical problems between words and concepts in my head. hence my adoration for historical materialism. i can roll my sleeves up with that shit.
“and the learning of these things precedes any understanding i might have of how and why they would be valuable.”
Does it?
Yes and no. The line between learning and understanding is as thin or thick , as the assigned value of a relationship determines it. Where it is more substantial, the line is not a line at all, it has interpenetrable aspects. Lines distill into a literal argumentative subscriptions.
Excellent.
Mowks comment, focus potential upon potential, is a wisdom Ive been ignoring for years now, trying to explain the makings of gold to puddles of decaying inedible mushrooms, as it were. This stupidity of mine was also part of what brought ruin to the Cave - if you remember - when I invited a certain deeply stupid person I don’t feel like mentioning by name (it is such an ugly name) to the Pentad and convinced you to have high hopes for him. Im laughing out now at the sheer ridiculousness of my callous idiocy. But it wasn’t funny then.
So perhaps I have finally come to the learning of a lesson - do not address the stupid.
Ill leave that dirty work too you! Hahaha.

Ah, but where does one seek potential and where is it found, and what does it look like?
What kind of ‘does it’ was that?
The kind asked with an inquisitive raised eyebrow: ‘ah young grasshopper, but does it?’
Or this kind: ‘oh I hadn’t thought about it like that. How simple. Duh.’
If the former, I’ll answer ‘yes’ again later and make a little more effort to explain. If the latter, I’ll answer ‘yes’ again and say ‘did I stutter?’
I’m still looking, maybe someday I’ll find it. Misguided, mistaken, misinformed and misinterpreted. I must have just plane missed that boat. Just eat the damn grasshopper and be done with it.
That would stop the grasshopper its guessing.
I read that, though. Both deleted tributes.
It is either known or not, and when it is known it is feared.
As the a(A)absolute is approached, the difference between relative events becomes indistinct
They. can be understood contemporaniously.
I’ll let you guys figure it out. I’m taking another hop.
If you are talking about the sexes, they tend to be drawn to the same potential, often using each other to come closer to it, cooperating.
It is itself of both genders, the perfect intelligence.
Meno - yes and no, they will be apprehended as one but not understood in their own right. Thus what is understood is rather a general substance of perception rather than events, beings.
Here God becomes blind and tyrannical, the Buddha Karpel hates so much.
Potential between the sexes is of course a driving power underneath all human endeavours. But this kind of speaks for itself. As much mystery around where precisely the most rewarding, valuable attraction is to be found remains as there ever was - the flux isn’t to be preconceived, and sexual selection is pure flux, the glimmer of light on the surface of the pond always reveals new ripples. All one can do is swim at the proper depth. Swim where fish your size are also swimming. Rank, rather than taste, is the first aphrodisiac. Recognizing ones own rank is to find the best sex. The terms of rank, in turn, are the tastes. Hierarchy is a play of tastes, and games are to be played seriously, with rules, if they’re meant to be any fun at all.
For a quicker path to the answer of where to find potential and what it “looks like”… play this track and stare at the Sungif. See how long it takes before a revelation dawns.
See what You mean, …
Maybe that is why we are supposed to have had a middle eye, they are too widely split.
