The End – TWSNBN Part 7

24/12/22 Its over. My personhood is still lost somewhere in the abyss; I did not find it. I did not regain my personhood. Sapere aude. But I do not dare to look, I do not dare to know. What is knowledge for, and what is education for? Clearly, I was wrong in answering the latter. In fact, they do want me dead, “my” x mod 6 = 1. It was constant pain. Alas I did not earn my right to be treated as a human. And again and again and again I had contemplated exercising my radical freedom, almost deciding to back out gracefully. But it turns out I did not need to do a thing. Or should I say, I could not do a thing. I had no choice in the matter. Come to think about it, just what do I actually have control and power over?

Which means he is also an S, not an M. This is something else we have to unpack. And also, i guess “Denji” is his name now, the person who was mentioned nameless which i had intended to name, had he stayed. Its one and a half years, but now he finally has a name.) CS3219 makes me out to be a masochist for a few reasons. I completed 39 out of 35 required points for the OTOT task. Why? I don’t know. Maybe its misdirected hyperfocus. And peer pressure.
