i’d be happy to help play test when you get to that point

You DM? Or got a group you know would be interested? I want multiple groups playing, but I want to be in cahoots with the DMs I give this out to so that I can get their feedback directly. I also don’t want to give out the initial play-test to too many people for fear of getting too much contradicting feedback such that I wind up making no significant changes or progress with the mechanics.

let me know!

Yeah, The only previous experience with a FWD car in snow is a sunfire and an escort and they were both garbage(in the snow and not tbh)

I generally much prefer RWD in snow but the tercel doesnt really have enough power to understeer so it’s been ok so far.

Loving having more than 3″ of ground clearance tho

I have to say you're one of my favorite blogs I follow. I love your fashion and existentialism posts the most. I've only kind of glossed over existentialism but it's helped me achieve some amount of peace in my life. Do you have some recommendations for existentialist thinkers media? It seems like you have a fondness Kierkegaard, from what I understand about him he's a Christian existentialist and I was wonder how that tied in with your Jewish faith? If you don't mind me asking.

Thank you!

Yes, Kierkegaard is my favorite, and the first. While I was raised Jewish, and consider myself (technically) an atheist, I find atheistic existentialism of little personal import. The moral questions I have to ask necessarily invoke god, and in fact presume its existence; Kierkegaard asks the most foundational and terrifying of these questions and arrives at profound answers.

There is, as well, Jewish existentialism. Its roots are bleak, and I think the foundational question there is one of the problem of evil: how can we reconcile faith in God as He sat idly by while six million of us were systematically exterminated? I want to say that Jewish existentialism almost veers more secular than religious with its deep political entanglements, i.e., Zionism and Jewish statehood. 

(This is where a lot of them lose me. For example, Emmanuel Levinas, who despite being a terribly lazy reader of Kierkegaard writes the most brilliant and elegant inverse of Kierkegaard’s concept of faith! For Kierkegaard, the moral imperative arises conditionally from one’s expressly solitary relationship with god -- a relationship in fact incomprehensible to others and by definition absurd! -- and it is only through god that “the ethical” can properly exist; Levinas says, no, you’ve got it precisely ass-backwards: the ethical is constructed through the face of the other, through the demand the other makes to be itself considered a subject, and thus GOD ITSELF is reified in that relationship! But if the demand of the other is the face of a Palestinian... of course he comes up with all manner of gymnastics. It’s terribly disappointing in context.)

From a practical perspective, I live my life under the assumption that Kierkegaard has it right. So everything I read I do so to relate back to him! But some get more out of the cigarette-smoking Parisian crowd. Those are the ones who generally come to mind when you mention existentialism. I like Camus. I’d push Nietzsche out a window if I could.
