Article I: TNP Briefing:

12th September 2022 the General elections of TNP have concluded;

Delegate-incumbnt Pallaith managed to win against 15 abstains and 23 RON’s with a total of 56 votes for Pallaith.

Vice-Delegate Hulldom managed to pull off a slim victory, going against 20 abstains and 27 RON’s. Hulldom came on top with 51 votes in favor of this candidate.

Sil Dorsett won the seat of “Speaker” but no one really cares what that even is.

Total number of voters: 07-98.

Article I-2: TSP Forums:

10th-11th September 2022 TSP officially abandoned the forum structure altogether in favor of installing a ‘community’ with Discourse and (est.) 1400 github repositories. Bravery does pay out but authentication.ada

Perhaps for security reasons-by which I mean leaking random users’ P.I? Perhaps it’s to avoid disrubtances from users like 0-Yours Truly-o? I’m not sure. Generally, this is a positive change. The UI is more navigable, it forces users to learn at least Markdown and I’ve felt as if the userbase itself had become ‘warmer’

Article I-3: TSP Chair Elections:

The juicy part. On 9th of September, the incumbent Chair of the Assembly, Cryo, won 81.48% of the vote against RON who won only 18.52%. The total number of votes were 21. Thi is mentioned as a comparison to TNP general elections. However, let’s attribute that this ¼ participatory rate in TSP over TNP elections is because they held a general one, whereas TSP only voted for the Chair of the Assembly. One could also say that it’s a larger region-let’s say that the number is because of the initial bug from 10 years ago where more player would spawn in TNP as opposed to other feeder Pacifics.

One could also consider this difference to stem from the fact that TNP’s NS:GP politics only slightly “shifts” towards a side. Alternatively, even bringing up a very controversial document titlted “The Independent Manifesto”, where a GCR chooses not to force a side. That is, a GCR chooses not to waste its’ own resources to support Defenders or Raiders. Let’s pretend this does not happen but focus instead on TSP’s own election.

The legends say that a self-proclaimed bad person once made a thread addressing certain issues they found when looking at laws concerning the position of Chair and when looking at past Chairs-who they were and where they came from. This Rehabilitator would bring up what they thought were issues, the community used rhetorics and armchair psychology to neglect these issues ever existing.

Here wer are now. Who would be better to consult why there was only one person on the ballot? Who else would answer why this didn’t cause RON to be activated? If only there really was a truthfully bad person that already provided us with answers to these questions. Oh, they have? “No one else runs for Chair unless they’ve previously had contact with the positios”? But, it’s CLEARLY undemocratic to codify that in the law! Term lengths? 6 months is too long? How about 11-12 months?

Thank you, wise old denizens. Thank you for explaining that I was wrong. I mean, I’m a noob who will likely get an administrative ban so, who really am I to judge the laws and practices of a position such as a Chair? It turns out that the only virtue you really need to foresee the future is common sense with an attribute of pattern recognition. Oh, how my gambling spirits have been awaken now.

Or just continue gatekeeping the region to people who have been around and a handful of other trustees. I’m sure that won’t lead to stagnating out of existence. Before I lose my mind, let’s go to the part I enjoy

Article II: ENTER - REALITY

In answering the basic questions of metaphysics during Edition 1, “what is there” and “what is it like”, I’ve provided you with a basic framework for a creation hypothesis. Ahead, I’ve made sure that this framework could apply to whichever belief system you attach it to. The summary of “There is infinite simulation” and “There is simulation of infinity” I’ve also provided you with the power of shaping your worldview in a way which disregards synthax - - guiding you to think outside of language, sentence, as such thought is possible [Wittgenstein, Tractacus].

Now let’s enter one of those simulations. Imagine a void with infinite versions of simulations simulating infinity. We choose one of them. As stated, each simulation has set axioms attached to it, which makes the simulation manifest itself as stable reality [Baudrillard, Simulacra and Simulation]. Our reality bases its’ existence on the spacetime fractional and how it interacts within itself. What we know from this is: space is finite, space is unknown, space can contain energy and matter, it is assumed that matter which does not emmit, transmit, reflect or receive energy is matter which makes “the void” and we call it “dark matter”, we assume that time takes supremacy over space as matter and energy of space change as time passes yet they cannot influence the behavior of time[contemporary physics]. As such, we can safely assume that here: time travel isn’t possible; henceforth timelines don’t exist. Your choices are bound and you cannot retract them[Ecclesiastes, Solomon].

Using the tree analogy, the process of the tree would be time itself; as in what defines how reality will necessarily behave is in time. The substance of the tree should be found in itself; that is, the essence of why and how our reality is can be found in the matter and energy of space[Spinoza, Ethics]. We ought to act in a way where we accept that only this is what is true as all else is agreeable upon in the social order, which is not necessarily true[Stirner, The Ego and Its’ Own]. From here, there are two schools on how an individual is to act in the imaginary social order. He is either to strive and overcome himself, including the social order which influences him[Nietzsche’s Over-man] or he is to strive and understand himself, including the social order which influences him as to face what he truly is[Dostoevsky’s All-man]. I offer you to go back a bit before deciding on the ethics of man.

If there exists a social order, the question is by whom, how and why it was formed? If you believe that without social order, all there is left is darkness and war of everything against all else, you believe the social order is a Leviathan rising above everyone and everything inn order to establish it[Hobbes, Leviathan]. However, if the true man is of clean nature and it is actually the social order which corrupts him, you wish for reaction-revolution[Rousseau, Discourse on the origins of Inequality II]. Man is just unsure without social order, which is why he creates Law as to have clear rules of how things are [Locke, First & Second Tract of Government]. Finally, if you wish to continue following the process that’s already been established, you say that we do not know why the social order exists but assume that it’s been established to benefit everyone marginally greater than if he was without it[Rawls, Theory of Justice].

Regardless, I will offer you another perspective next time. Here exists an error which I will point to then. Try to find it until then.
