gloom

I’ve been reading about trauma lately, speaking as a basically low/no-trauma person (afaik) and one of my conclusions is that the majority of the world is low-grade trauma-driven and it manifests as being in war mode by default, peace mode by exception. Guess I’m rather lucky in having the reverse orientation.

can you be competitive while in peace mode?

weird internet kid. helping Creators with /seemore. yapping on /okbanger. curating in /creators and /cameron. dev + veteran + HBS.

that’s fair - do you think any capitalist enterprise can credibly larp as a creatively differentiated infinite game?

I think so. It’s orthogonal. I can be competitive on occasion. The thing is, peace mode makes creatively differentiated infinite games way more attractive and accessible so competing just feels boring.
