Peircean Irony and Misunderstanding: Obeying a rule is a practice

1 min readJun 9, 2025

“The soul itself is a memory we carry of once having moved at the speed and density of light”

  • P.

It’s not a novel idea but it’s practical

It works

It cogs

It exists insofar as it contributes into the perpetualness

It’s wrong and wrongness is trivial in this regard

It could be better but its quality of being is indisputable and cannot be improved upon, it just is

It’s a starting off point. It’s the beginning of something or it’s the end

But it continues

There is no misinterpretation that is not practical

Only misinterpretations that mark the beginning

“The beginning towards what” is the practical concern and proper basis for a reaction

Ignore it or silence it, it persists and so it goes

A misinterpretation is a setting and a whole Davidsonian context

Enough to establish foundation, enough to carve, enough to build

A misinterpretation is enough
