>I have little doubt that those who are able to achieve this ultimate attitude toward life do so on the strength of a new, expanded, transformed narcissism: a cosmic narcissism which has transcended the bounds of the individual.
Another example of "two fishes" (frogs?) struggling to leave ("ri") the aquatic
Kevin tells Stokes about his discovery of a general Stokes' theorem. Lord K doesn't realise its import (because he doesn't use it to simplify his "understanding"). Sir George doesn't do anything with it but sets it as an exam problem..

*As a culture, bisexuals are possibly the best at masking the grandiosity (thus sometimes getting diagnosed as _karens_), but when it's mixed with autism all bets are off?
(Somewhat) Tangentially:
Non-narcissistic (Golden mouth?) technology

(I disagree with the first and last call but they could be examples of "cosmic narcissism")
Does my water/anātman/(justice over prudence)/... resemble K's comic narcissism?
Do people really have so much trouble with death? Or is it just the sort of person who becomes a psychologist? (No one seems to be anxious about the time before they were born, frex)

Doesn't say anything about rodents or triads :)
Tail chasing certainly would express the "chase" phase of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prey_drive#Aspects , and sounds like it might significantly activate "stalk" and "grab-bite" heads as well?
TIL there are more rodent species than other mammal species (combined with bats they together comprise ~60% of mammal species); do gnawers, flyers, and insect eaters make a mammalian triad?
Magic Mountain -> better place to look for (expert-)embarrassment-grandiosity ("lion"?) geodesics(?). [theory ought to point straight at Stahlgewittern tho?]

Fox: "primordial" curiosity-indignation geodesic ?
TIS (as nonexpert): Evo bottleneck.. weakness is strength; cue other Taoist-inspired-anime (name of which I can't retrieve for now).. survival in the Jurassic^W Triassic? "Obvious" Testamental innovation as well .
FWIW I had "aeb"/"jurisprudence" top of my to-algolia-fu list last Nov.. ("circles" for PH)
PS: was looking to tell you that HH possibly lifted elements of NuG from Lermontov
PPS: ask "Civilian" (Blokette?) enforcers about their _formal_ psychotherapy training? So as to be less impressed ;)
PPPS: to ask about a menu of US domestic policy failure options one should choose from :)
[also: I'm an old married man — I already know what I'm having; you may do better to ask someone younger what's currently on the menu?]
