"I ain't even got a single duck in a row, but when I push off of the dock, fish jump in the boat."

Skill issue. If I understand me, then I am understood.

I should listen to audiobooks more often.

Jajajaja

Mornin' y'all.

I appreciate bushido zazen, but I wouldn't be a samurai.

"Taste the inexhaustible."

"If you divide what you have, and feed your lower ranks, you will be able to keep good men."

"In this, the etiquette of the Samurai is to calm himself, and deal with the person in a good manner. To treat a person harshly, is the way of middle class lackeys."

Enjoyable listen, even if I dislike auto-readers. Been over a decade since I read it.

Why does this feel both appropriate, and presumptuous at the same time?

Goodnight y'all. Gods be with us all.

Wtf, this hits as the Whitest Name Ever

Saving this for when he inevitably deletes it.

To be clear, I am apologizing for damaging your remains, not for using them per se.

I love you bro, but if you die while we're in battle, and I run out of weapons, I will use your severed limbs as bludgeons. Sorry in advance.

Holocracy for Vikings Bright-Moot: The Rede-Way A lean hall-law for fast doings without lords, and fair say without sludge. 1) Who may take up a choice Any hall-folk may lift a thing that needs doing and, if they are nearest the work and most at stake, take up the Chooser’s mantle. If it’s unclear, the Moot-Warden names the one whose hide is most on the line. 2) The four beats of a choice Sight: mark the need or the fare-chance. Draft: write the doing plain and short. Seek rede: ask two rings of folk: those hit by the doing, those craft-keen on the doing. Set the choice & tell it: make the call; say what rede you took in, and why. The bigger the thing, the wider you cast your rede-net—across bands, and up to the hall-council if weighty. 3) What the Chooser owes Ask ere act: rede is not frill; it is the way. Own the end: praise or blame falls foremost on the Chooser (the hall still helps bear the load). Leave a writ: put in the hall-book the draft, who you asked, what they said, and the call you set. 4) What the hall owes Answer when asked: give straight rede; point at snags and hidden costs. Open the chest: share the needed lore and tallies; without open sight, rede withers. Back the call: once the choice is set, stand to the work; weigh the ends later. 5) Good rede, tight and true Bring clean tallies and plain tales; no fog. Name stakes and after-shifts (second-order bites). Flag one-way moves. Offer other ways, not only “aye” or “nay.” 6) Quick lanes and guard-rails Small stakes: one day of rede is enough; choose and do. High stakes: widen the ring, take longer—yet end with one clear caller. Need-fire clause: if harm looms, act at once; within a day leave a short writ and seek after-rede. 7) Second say without kings No nay-stamp. Anyone may put up a Counter-Draft by the same Rede-Way. If both paths can’t stand together, call a Tally-Moot: five evenhanded peers read the hall-book and pick one within two days. The picked path stands for a try-span, then is weighed on its ends. 8) Beats and books Weekly Rede-Board: a living wall of open drafts, who’s been asked, and when the call comes. Monthly Ends-Weighing: what we chose, what came of it, what we learned—kept in the Hall-Book. 9) Light roles (by turn) Moot-Warden: keeps the way, not the answers; names a Chooser when unclear. Chronicler: minds the Rede-Board and the Hall-Book. Time-Keeper: nudges the beats so work doesn’t bog. 10) What this buys Folk feel needed, trusted, taught; learning happens at the edge where choices bite. Might and say drift to where the facts live; high seats make fewer calls, by bent and by design. The hall moves swift, stays fair, and stays answerable—with no lord’s lash and no all-say sludge. Bright-Moot Wall-card (short form) Who calls? The one nearest the work (or named). Must do: write the draft, seek rede from hit-folk and craft-folk, then choose and tell. Hall must: share lore, give straight rede, back the call, weigh the ends. No nay-stamp: counter-draft by the same rules; if clash, five peers pick; try-span then weigh. That is Bright-Moot: quick, steady, and clean—built so keen heads can move without a lord, and the hall grows wiser with each choice.

Modern Era Mimics have day jobs.

Occasionally, maybe.
