I feel slightly alive whenever the sky looks like this.

She silenced again looking inside herself. She remembered: I am the light wave that has no other field but the sea, I thrash about, slide, fly, laughing, giving, sleeping, but woe is me, always in me, always in me.

a starter for @napoleonriot,
note: kisskiss fall in love
where: napoleon's sprawlin' estate
Napoleon was sprawled out on the couch when the Malice found him, the spoils and luxuries of the Riot's life were always found by the volatile. The estate was a monstrosity, sprawled out before them and meant for at least twenty more occupants as opposed to two volatile lycans and the occasional beating heart they'd picked up along the way. Napoleon had blown through Lupercal before they'd even set foot within the forest, snapping up the Waffle House, positioning them in the titular home that was either completely refined within or completely overrun from lack of upkeep. In the farthest wing, marble and concrete crumbled, but where the two resided it was groomed and pristine. The Malice lazily kicked his shoes off as he entered the room, nodding at the Riot, "Quiet night in?" Mocked with an impish and dead smile, "I was thinking we could go out." Napoleon made the rules, ordered and commanded them under his own hedonistic snobbery, but sometimes Carmine itched to make his own plan. Mountain Cicada's buzzed and chittered and it only made the restless volatile itch to fill the echoing silence in the estate with anything else.

In a 1969 paper the American economist Harold Demsetz distinguished between two approaches to public policy: the “comparative” approach and the “nirvana” approach. The former presents the choice as being between imperfect real world arrangements, the latter between an ideal world and the existing arrangement. This is known as “nirvana fallacy”: the tendency to measure our proposed solutions against a perfect solution which doesn’t exist. In the real world, we often have to choose between the bad and the even worse. But the politician who uses the nirvana fallacy gains an easy rhetorical advantage. He can gesture towards his perfect world, attack the existing state of affairs for not living up to it, and accuse anyone who doesn’t accept the plausibility of perfection as being heartless, cynical or small-minded. The left has a particular weakness for the nirvana fallacy: its condemnations of capitalism or military actions are often made without reference to concrete alternatives, but to some unarticulated idea of, well, nirvana. As Thomas Sowell liked to say, the question is always “Compared to what?”.

The thing with OCD is that I know nothing but doubt and it shapes every part of my philosophy. however that means there is no true knowledge or perception that I can ascertain that has any level of certainty which means that I can put individual meaning in the unknown.
