March 19, 2011 Contention of the Categorical Imperative
I’m not so much disturbed by the knowledge that I ultimately have to form my own impressions on matters of dissent, but more with the prospect of things that (I earnestly think) might be right may not necessarily be true. (Truth being inevitably predicated on some constructivist epistemology or worst still, consensus) How now meine frau
Also, I have to add/freak out here that the idea of absolute moral judgment on the pretext of karma, or justice, for that matter, escapes me completely. I do not see how any part of the alleged Japan Karma Trifecta can make sense, at all (I’m not even going to specifically comment on the obscenity of certain misspellings) At this point I am desperately trying my gosh-darnedest* not to feed the trolls because there are, safe to say, maybe 300 million of them inhabiting Plato’s proverbial cave. The more I read, the more guilty I become of being essentially in the same damn genus, and I sincerely hope that this guilt is not the product of some subconscious First-World empathy.
Needless to say, I have lost my moral compass.
When I am more lucid, I shall come back to this post again but in general, I am decidedly more productive after 00:30 than the other twelve hours of my waking moments put together (which are periodically littered with opulent naps).

As I come to the conclusion that the best people I’ve never actually met (or the precious one or two that I already know) are on Tumblr, possibly the most devastating news has just surfaced onto my Dashboard. Can’t seem to collect myself appropriately for a coherent response.
