i find the phrase “vertiginous kaleidoscope” to be aspirational in some of my moods

raymond geuss, not thinking like a liberal, 136-137, robert denoon cumming

DESPITE MY GREAT admiration for Sidney Morgenbesser, he was clearly a man of the living and spoken word, not of the written word. He was too intellectually impatient to work over a written text again and again to get the structure and form of expression exactly right. A doctoral dissertation, however, had to be a longish completed, and preferably polished, text, and I worried about my own strength of character and ability to settle on, stay with, and complete an appropriate piece of writing under Sidney's consistently acute, but also constantly wandering dialectic. The vertiginous kaleidoscope that was Sidney's mind and discourse was in a way a model of intellectual activity, as a kind of permanent theoretical motion, but I thought it was probably also important to be able to take a snapshot of the provisional results of that activity at some given time and fix it in writing, even if one's thoughts in some sense really had already moved on. I thought Sidney, as a doctoral supervisor, would be an active hindrance to that part of the process. In addition, I wanted

she nut in my mouth and 5 mins later im yapping about thomas kuhn geuss taboo sex

so tempted to diogenes post

raymond geuss, public goods private goods, 15-16

The second reason why Diogenes' action is offensive is that many societies hold not just to the principle of disattendability in public places but also to a principle of avoiding near occasions of envy; that is, it is thought to be inappropriate to exhibit the satisfaction of certain basic, imperative human needs in the presence of others if that satisfaction is problematic, precarious, or otherwise not to be taken for granted. Thus in many preindustrial societies one never eats in the presence of someone else who is not also eating, and I suggest that the reason for this, at least in part, is because food is a relatively scarce and uncertain good in some societies. Diogenes is also reported
15
CHAPTER 1I
to have been reproached for eating in the market-place. Historically as food becomes more plenti-ful, this taboo also often relaxes.® Sexual gratification can be seen to have a similar structure, given the way social and other factors restrict opportunities in many societies. Thus there is a taboo on showing that one is being or has recently been sexually satisfied in a public place where others are present who may not be, or may not have recently been, thus gratified? Diogenes violates this taboo, too.

above statement is a reference to Utopian thought between words and action: Seminar with Raymond Geuss and the related lecture
https://youtube.com/watch?v=k1PfXIEWG4k
https://youtube.com/watch?v=s1AyVXKkt7s

Berlin quite correctly noted that the main line of philosophy since Plato had tended to hold that the good was unitary in the sense that it was in principle possible for a state of affairs to exist which was maximally good in all respects. Thus the society described in Plato's Re public is to be maximally self-restrained; also maximally just, wise, manly, and so on. It is, however, a commonsensical observation that in many realms of human life, although not in all, there exist values which cannot be comaximised. To have an exuberant, vital, and spontaneous personality may be a good thing. To have a reflective, sober, and self -controlled personality may also be a good thing. It may be impossible for the same person to have both in the highest degree; realistically one might have to choose which to try to cultivate. Berlin claims that with regard to at least a wide variety of positive human properties and ideals - strength and sensitivity, equity and mercy, passion and asceticism - it is impossible to imagine a co-instantiation at the highest level, and the choice between them is in some sense a choice between incommensurables. The tension between conflicting demands is not something which could in general be abolished. There are, however, two distinct versions of pluralism, one liberal and one rather more existentialist. The liberal version states that there is a plurality of different goods among which one must choose without there being any single clear criterion for judging one good to be uniquely best. The tacit image of the world presupposed by the liberal version is of a place full of goodies with plenty for everyone: let all enter into the banquet of life and take their pick. There are limits to how much any one person can eat, and so eating some things c…

omg finally @VenturCommunist replied dream come true big fan!
In the movement i am currently in Daniel Guérin, Peter Gelderloos, Errico Malatesta are the most read.
Obviously we read Marx too, but as I read more and more anarchist theory, the more i realize it is not a must for
us and the movement, especially strategy and tactics wise.
There are texts that should be prioritized over Marx, in my opinion especifista texts (by FAU, Rosa Negra, etc.). These are more important for the movement as a whole, how i see it now.

sorry i was driving and didn’t get to reply, i have a lot of thoughts about this! usually im pretty opposed to community notes, though im more sympathetic in this case to the actual function. i see how it could be implemented too, like someone writes to their repo and people upvote/downvote

willow kinda off topic but what do you think about community notes for alt text? meaning, anyone could write alt text for media missing it and others could vote for accuracy and quality

what do you think of my list futur

running list of feature requests:
good ideas:
• audio embeds
• search for video/gif alt text
• share by did, honestly entire site navigation by did (no handle in url ever)
bad ideas:
• quote multiple posts
• longer alt text (can't happen without lexicon v2)
• alt text for all posts (hidden/viewable)

this one is actually pretty straightforward if you're in the know. numbani is an overwatch map and capture point A is surrounded by high ground. if the attacking team does not take high ground in some way to dislodge the defending team, they are typically at a significant disadvantage
