To clarify TGRR, what are your thoughts on Jungian archetypes?

No, no, I want to know what use LHX plans to get out of THIS PARTICULAR group's symbology.

"Billy, when I say that ethics is our number one priority and safety is also our number one priority, you should take that to mean exactly what I said. Also quality. That's our number one priority as well. Don't look at me that way, you're in the corporate world now and this is how it works."

Well, my point was going to be that there's a possibility that some of the Tarot symbology can be tied to archetypes.  And if that's a possibility, then it's also possible to manipulate that symbology to affect people who don't know anything conciously about the symbol itself.


The only thing is, one of the few ways to figure out if a symbol might be connected to an archetype is to study the symbology.

Now, how useful is THAT crap?  I mean, come on.  Spotting the "symbology" in tarot cards won't even get you laid at Berkeley, anymore.

And just how do you plan to affect people using tarot cards?  If they're stupid enough to believe in that shit, there are plenty of easier ways to manipulate them. 

I mean, seriously...who gives a FUCK if a symbol "matches an archetype"?  "Archetypes" are nothing more than a means for people like Michael Moorcock, RAW, and Robert Howard to sell you the same poorly-written story 20 times.

Yeah.  One of you fuckers gave him my email addy.

Anyway, Doc will not be around much.  Good talking to him, though.  He was our chief operations planner in Illinois.

No, I use that to smash satellites.  For laughs.

i plan to get feedback

what am i trying to build?
some sort of multimedia machine


there is people here who can do things that other people cant

the style of thought here leads to good feedback

constructive building


if i can understand the limits of communication, i can do what i do better

and not be left writing shit and wondering 'why people dont get it'



i dont even like the group's symbology
i just like the implications of LMNOs metaphor that he spit one day last spring


regardless
there has been progress the past 365
neat hell
