not a strictly philosophical question, but do you tend to think of language as a constrictor of human emotion, or a promoter? Why? (if you don't have a 100% black and white answer that's cool)

Day 2

"deep play is controlled chaos. you have constant churning turmoil in the fantasy world that you're involved in and you're so engrossed in it that nothing else really matters. learning is what happens when you're doing something else. it's an usual concept that many people don't understand but really what it is is when you're so involved in the game that you're playing or that activity that you're participating in that you sort of forget it's a game. it comes to life in a way that can only happen when you do it for yourself. it's not restrained by barriers between ideas, barriers between aspects of knowledge. you aren't playing a game that involves astrophysics, you're just playing it and the context that you're in in the game involves astrophysics, it involves navigation, it involves tactical thinking, it involves straight physics, it involves any number of things."
