		<description>[...] Weakness is another word for incompleteness. But I like incompleteness better because it doesn&#8217;t carry as strong of an emotional charge, and therefore allows you to actually see where you are incomplete and actively change it. I played a game of left-handed pool last night with a long-time pool friend of mine in town visiting. It felt totally natural. The other day I accidentally told someone I was left-handed, when I meant just the opposite. I have been eating mostly bananas, apples and hummus and feel great because of it. Slamming a whole box of detox tea for a few days was also wonderful. The only thing strange about playing left hand pool was that I wasn&#8217;t as able to keep my stroke straight and smooth as I am when I play righty. But my mental acuity was much better. And my emotional resistance to failure was dropped down to zero. That is the single-most important thing I have gotten from my extremely simple exercises I have been following this past week: conscious pain. Somebody said something about that being tied to Gurdjieff. They called it conscious suffering though. I changed it to pain, because that domain name was available and can now be drafted into my online chess game against the algorithms of internet profit and pattern manipulation. [...]</description>

		<description>Yeah its good to get confused and misunderstand though. It teaches you lessons you won't otherwise forget. Like that thing about queens taking rooks. Did I write about that? It only had to be done against me once to ruin my whole game before it became a permanent part of my "debugging library" of patterns to be aware of when they are being leveraged against me.</description>

		<description>OK, I totally misunderstood, which is good.  Thanks. But yeah, that is my life, but for I while I thought it was the only God there was. 

I still get confused but I think I am straightening things out.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Iâ€™d like to think I am not really a dark counterplayer but that I just play that role to stimulate thinking.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I meant you were actively playing against him.

&lt;blockquote&gt;I always sucked at Chess,&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Me too, but I just wasnt playing enough or with the full force of my intention.</description>

		<description>Here is an amazing thing, Tim, last night as I was falling asleep, I was reading PKD's "If you find this world bad, you should see some of the other ones" and it looks like I fell asleep just before I got to the part about the dark counterplayer, just around the same time you were writing this post. 

I had previously read about the dark counterplayer in "Cosmology and Cosmonogy" though.</description>

		<description>Still, though I don't really get what you meant. I recognize the reference, from Joseph Campbell by way of PKD. I am into that, stuff of late, or do you mean I am the "dark counterplayer" of your blog? 

Of course, I know its no fun if you have to explain the joke. But anyway, yeah, I always argue with everybody. You are an INTP, though so we get along. 

I'd like to think I am not really a dark counterplayer but that I just play that role to stimulate thinking. 

I always sucked at Chess, but thought it was cool.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;So do I get a residual?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Yeah, but I was trademarking it for your decendents. You'll be long dead by the time that pays off. Or not if you become the healthiest man on the planet. </description>

		<description>This place seems familiar. 99, Decision Street. You are in a maze of windy passages, all alike. Chequers has been solved, they tell us, but chess is much harder. I read a book at University about a mathematician who set out to prove the BOAPW hypothesis. Emma Smart it was called.</description>
