Tweets on Games


Every game is rigged by the parameters of the game, when you talk their language they have already beat you. To win inside the game is not to win outside it. Language blurs the boundaries, we make a mess of every game. Reason, for it to have authority, ought to be domesticated by the parameters of the game. When it runs wild it is no longer reason, it is the will to power under the guise of reason. We don't act reasonably in life, only in games.  We don't reason with ourselves, we act according to some whim of consciousness.  After the fact it may seem reasonable, we may tell ourselves it was the faculty of reason we accessed, but these are fictions.  Only in the game does reason have constitution.  The game refines, we integrate.
