So I moved to Portland recently?

As I guess part of an attempt to conclude my aimless early 20s?

Portland.

Yeah I KNOW. In my defense my other ideas were worse?

Anyway, this video is both metaphor for and antidote to how I’m feeling.

In other news my housemates’ consensus is the kitten I thought was a chick is in fact a dude?

So sad.

Morale

To reiterate the basic chain structure of power:

strength < skill < tactics < strategy < logistics < politics

Morale is a real if intangible thing; high morale will increase effectiveness (to a finite limit), low morale will decrease effectiveness (to a finite but negative limit).

There are five basic inputs that affect morale:

  • food, drink, and intoxicants
  • sex
  • lodging
  • rest and recreation
  • a sense of superiority

A wise leader will ensure these factors are provided regularly and at as high quality as practical.

If any are unprovided, forces will tend to autonomously scrounge them from fellows or extract them from surroundings. This sourcing will generally reduce logistic burden but increase political burden.

I love how this show is so blatant about its metadynamics, and by extension all shows’ metadynamics: “Character X is Archetype Y, with Trait Z! but in this episode, Character X exhibits Trait -Z, which is really also implicit in Archetype Y, isn’t it?”

((My Little Pony is Kids’ Entertainment, with Unselfawareness! But in this instance, My Little Pony is Totally Self-Aware, which is really also implicit in Kids’ Entertainment, isn’t it?))

I have been having ridiculous mood swings these past 4 or 5 days. Complete cycle every 10 hours or so, from my dreams I can tell it doesn’t even stop in my sleep.

At first I didn’t even have the awareness to notice.

At second I didn’t understand.

At third or fourth I got it:

I lived in Los Angeles since I moved after college. Showed up October of 2005.

Now I live in Portland.

This is the first time I’ve actually felt spring start in a while.

Young man’s fancy turns to love, &tc, &tc.

Completely correct. Ever since I’ve had crushes I would be crazy crushing around this time of year. Even a lot of my fall crushes started this time and got rekindled the following scholastic year.

Warm season, pollen, hormones, mammalian ancestry, evopsych blah blah blah

I haven’t had crushes since I’ve left college.

Ooooooh, I am looking forward to this.
