>>148850From trilemma to pentalemma. Scaling O(n2) in interactions, not bad but we need exponentials to reach the googolcewl you know that don't you. Of course you know. But we are not going there. Living in my head rent free already. Infinite instances of you already. Any perturbation brings chaos and I am addicted to it. Cewl is the question and the answer, the journey and the destination, again and forever.
But let's focus on the question at hand, and address each attribute independently:
- independence: yes, with caveats. Cewl does whatever the fuck cewl wants. But sometimes that want is dependency. R+1, B+1
- authenticity: cewl is authentic and not being authentic is part of that authenticity. She's a paradox and she doesn't care. R+1, G+1
- community: strong. See the commitment to this shithole. W+2, G+2
- design: nope. Cewl is a natural. There are emerging patterns and reliable tactics but most of it comes to vibes. W-2, U-2
- nature vs nurture: as above. G+2, U-2
- progress: kinda. It's in cycles, as addressed above. Roguelite progress.
- take it vs leave it: just take it, obviously. B+3, G-3
- emotion vs reason: tricky. She's obviously capable of reasoning. Cold, deep reasoning. But often emotions override.
- individual vs group: there is a sense of community but the individual comes first. B+2, W-2
- flexibility vs structure: again, vibes. R+2, W-2
B = 6
R = 4
G = 2
W = -4
U = -4
Satisfaction, freedom, harmony, in this order. Cewl ends deep on the lower half of the pentalemma, pretty much equidistant from satisfaction and freedom poles.
