game-playing frees us to "go for the kill" so to speak

2018-04-08 14:22:01 UTC  

i like to use chess as an example of this

2018-04-08 14:22:41 UTC  

because it's such a restrictive game itself, and the physical action of the game is limited to moving pieces around a board, so it's pretty much 100% mental effort

2018-04-08 14:23:34 UTC  

a good chess player bends himself to the destruction of his opponent within an incredibly limited scope

2018-04-08 14:24:09 UTC  

his mind is as focused on this as a fighter pilot on winning a dogfight or a basketball player attempting to snatch the ball from an opposing players hand

2018-04-08 14:24:52 UTC  

a good chess players "goes for the kill" as aggressively and single-mindedly as anyone

2018-04-08 14:26:06 UTC  

games themselves are like a weird sub-reality where everything is replaced with a lesser form of itself

2018-04-08 14:26:15 UTC  

and we accept the rules as a civilizing factor or something

2018-04-08 14:26:21 UTC  

this is where i'm not really coherent

2018-04-08 14:27:24 UTC  

we easily and readily accept rulesets and convention in games for some reason

2018-04-08 14:27:37 UTC  

we've got this concept of recognized success that we need to satisfy

2018-04-08 14:28:55 UTC  

someones gotta figure this shit out before 2025 or we're all fucked

2018-04-08 14:31:37 UTC  

yeah war crimes are not unlike "cheating" in a game

2018-04-08 14:31:42 UTC  

your "win" is not recognized by others

2018-04-08 14:31:46 UTC  

and you can be punished

2018-04-08 14:32:06 UTC  

wow i'm fuckin stupid this morning

2018-04-08 14:33:09 UTC  

also olympic athletes are a good example of this

2018-04-08 14:33:35 UTC  

because they train all year long for a good chunk of their lives to participate in internationally recognized games

2018-04-08 14:34:19 UTC  

the elite of the elite olympic athletes spare no expense in their striving to dominate their chosen game

2018-04-08 14:35:02 UTC  

i just find the whole idea that even in our leisure we often want to be "fully activated" as it were

2018-04-08 14:35:07 UTC  

very fascinating

2018-04-08 14:36:38 UTC

2018-04-08 15:46:35 UTC  

they didnt want any backlash, and the only robot thing about them is that they have some sort of voicebox and ai

some bbc reporter went to japan to yell at them about how awful it is to like little girls

2018-04-08 16:09:14 UTC  

they all pretty much gave off the same vibe of "bitch we dont care about some dumb thot foreigners opinion, go back to your country"
