"...those who habitually weigh the right course against what they regard as advantageous ... unlike good men, they judge everything by profit and gains, which seem to them just as valuable as what is right." - Cicero, On Duties III
It is so difficult to consider our benefit as the same as what is right. I still find it hard to do, if it's possible.
In another timeline, sgt_slaughtermelon's life took a slightly different turn and became thoroughly academic, bookish, and reclusive. Professor Melonius as an idea still exists, and he works away at his tiny university post constructing an entire world from books and ideas. These are expressions of what the notes on the margins of his books are like, the scribbles and ideas from his collection that make lovely complex thoughts, incomplete and fragmented since Melonius isn't real, and can't finish a thesis in unreality.
A collaborative series with FiveTimesNo as a crossover with his brilliant series "The Soul of Man Under Late Capitalism."
