philisophical side of nightops?

Post by RoxasV3 » Thu Mar 04, 2021 10:20 pm

for the past few years i have been studying and working on philosophy, attempts at book writing and what have you, would anyone here be interested in talking about ideals and beliefs systems pertaining to this little hobby of ours? if it has traction id like to make a few topical posts about it in SG

thanks for your time

I've thought about doing this too, though I don't know how many would find it interesting and I'd probably just sound like a pretentious twat (he says while swirling a glass of expensive Bordeaux in a silk dragon robe). The closest I've come to this is my Wolf, Serpent, Eagle dissertation in which I approached Night Ops from an esoteric martial arts perspective, using animal symbolism to illustrate different modes of thought & conduct. Rather than lobbing yourself into any one 'art' or category, the goal of this approach is to be mercurial in your opping and encompass all three animal traits simultaneously. "Float like butterfly, sting like bee" type thing.

I tend to find my philosophical stuff more private, sorry, otherwise I would share. Some content like Xanatos made, the "Wolf, Serpent, Eagle" could be nice though.
