  • Stigma

  • Responsibility
    Totalitarian governments for governing are like Silicon Valley for narrating. The legislative branch has authority over imagination, the executive branch over manifestation.

  • Popularity
    A person's popularity is his or her capacity for relationship. People police each other to make sure that everyone is getting older.

  • (Colors)(Numbers)
    Numbers are colors finitely and colors are numbers infinitely. The layout of common multiplication problems should be explained differently to reflect the second factor's existence as a unit conversion. Calculus is described by the relationship between numbers and colors. Integration to derivation is the same as generalization to specification.

  • Story
    It's not beneficial to you to think of your life in terms of a story. If you try to make other people see your story a certain way, then you'll end up subject to their stories and Story itself. You're stuck in someone else's story if you see them as an absolute good.
