Time to wrap up Jordan Bernt Peterson's Rule IV from Beyond Order, "notice that opportunity lurks where responsibility has been abdicated." Apparently people are just abdicating responsibility left and right, and we're also told we're annoyed by that. We're told a lot about ourselves (thoughts, feelings, inclinations) in this chapter.

I got what footage of the kitties I could. They are terribly busy these days, with all their summertime feline business. Even a lobster wasn't sufficient to bribe Izzy for long.

Thanks to Hegel for reading some philosophy for me! You can find them on Twitch (and elsewhere) at twitch.tv/hegelplays
