#Logical Investigations

[philosophybits]

The work of science does not consist of creation but of the discovery of true thoughts.

Gottlob Frege, Logical Investigations

[the-framed-maelstrom]

Dazed by the confusion between object and mental content, one forgets that the objects of which we are ‘conscious’, are not simply in consciousness as in a box, so that they can merely be found in it and snatched at in it; but that they are first constituted as being what they are for us, and as what they count as for us, in varying forms of objective intention. One forgets that, from the mere finding of a mental content, i.e. the pure immanent intuition of such a content, up to the external perception and imagination of objects neither found immanently in consciousness, nor capable of being so found, and from these on to the loftiest thought-formations with their manifold categorial forms and appropriately correlated semantic forms, an essentially single concept runs continuously: in all cases, whether we intuit in perceptual, fancying or remembering fashion, or whether we think in empirical and logico-mathematical forms, an intending, or reference (Vermeinen) is present, that aims at an object, a consciousness is present that is the consciousness of this object. The mere existence of a content in the psychic interplay is, however, not at all this being-meant or being-referred-to. This first arises when this content is ‘noticed’, such notice being a look directed towards it, a presentation of it. To define the presentation of a content as the mere fact of its being experienced, and in consequence to give the name ‘presentations’ to all experienced contents, is one of the worst conceptual distortions known to philosophy.

i feel like scanners is like pre-transcendental its like the philosophy of arithmetic or even the logical investigations as much as i luv them and then like videodrome is more like the ideas like its made that leep of stepping away from the natural attitude and turning thematic attention to consciousness itself as world-constituting

I recently learned that before New 52, Guy Gardener was at one point social worker. This got retconned during New 52 as did most of his previous backstory, however while the rest of his backstory got brought back, he's still a fucking cop.

DC is missing out on the opportunity to do the funniest shit.

Just imagine baby Dick meeting Guy for the first time as Robin and instantly ruining the secret identity thing by immediately shouting "MR. GARDNER????" Because Guy was the social worker assigned to Dick after his parents died.

When the league finds out Billy is just a child, everyone else is freaking out about how young he is while Guy is simultaneously going full social worker, asking Billy questions to make sure his uncle isn't facilitating this, and also trying to figure out why so many of his kids are in the Justice League.

He also quit being a social worker to teach children with disabilities, imagine Bruce S T R E S S I N G when this happens because having a superhero social worker made everything so much easier.

I was working on this video when the Investigations Collection Announcement dropped, then proceeded to spiral for the next few days before finally finishing it.

"The horse was saddled. The saddlebags contained...seventy thousand dollars...Captain, this is damned stupid."

"I know, sir," said Carrot. "They are the facts, sir."

"But they're not the right facts! They're stupid facts!"

"I know, sir. I can't imagine His Lordship trying to kill anyone."

"Are you mad?" said Vimes. "I can't imagine him saying sorry!"

"A Refreshing Prosecutor" Translation

Sourse: Gyakuten Kenji 2 Comic Anthology

Author: Fubito Mikanagi

Beware: Translation by someone who knows neither Japanese nor English!

That's it for now! Unfortunately, I don't have the opportunity to check the official translation of The Prosecutor's Gambit at the moment, but I'm getting closer to actually playing it myself! As for now, the characters' speech might sound too ordinary. Also, English is not my first language, so feel free to correct my mistakes!

If you'd like to have a look at the untranslated photos of the anthology, you can find them here.

"Bake 'n' Bop Heaven".

The next translated comic will be…

checking notes

Uh.

Stay tuned!

I think it goes something like this.

I don't know, I haven't read it yet. So it'll take a while to translate.

"I think..."

"...you have followed me..."

"...far enough."

Incident Report: Witness came to my office in Wailer custody. He (elezen, 45, Hyrstmill) was quite shaken and claimed to have been followed on through the forest. He described a hyuran woman (late twenties to mid thirties, long, ashen hair and skin, dirty gray tunic; no eye color given—he reported that her eyes were naught but whites) staring at him from behind a tree on the roadside, smiling unnaturally. As he approached the tree where the woman hid, she ran around it and, per his claim, disappeared. He had little cause for concern until she saw the same woman hiding behind another tree just a few hundred yalms up the road. Witness claims not to have seen the woman pass him on the roadside, nor did he see any usual movement in the trees. He called out, but she deigned to neither respond nor to move. He carried on down the road, keeping an eye upon the woman as he passed, then turned to check the road ahead when she was out of sight once again. He then saw her a third time, some fifteen yalms ahead, now peeking from behind Galvanth's Spire. Witness then began to run from the authorities, which prompted them to give chase and arrest him for suspicious behavior. Wailers report seeing no woman approach and new footsteps could be found.

Investigator's note: Woman loosely fits the description of a missing person report filed last autumn that the Wailers were charged with investigating. They neither found the woman nor recovered remains (attributed to wildlife; she disappeared during the peak of annual funguar activity). I'll need to confirm her identity, which means I'll have to get close, and that presents a problem if she slips away whenever someone draws near. I have a hunch she is simply a pawn for a much larger threat that will only reveal itself once a potential victim follows her deeper into the wood. Wonderful. I leave in the morning.
