I don't know why, but recently I've become fascinated with whales, and other seafaring mammals. Whales especially though. Whales are the biggest living thing on the planet. Ok well not really, because techically the great barrier reef is alive, as well as kelp and stuff. But other than that, whales take the cake. So there are these huge animals just swimming around the oceans of this planet of ours completely oblivious to cell phones and cars and taffy. They just exist and are huge.
This just blows my mind. I think I'm regressing intellectually. I'm starting to think like a 5 year old. It's not advanced moral philosophies or meta physics that interest me. It's things like whales and bears and water.
Anyway, that's my introspection for the day. And now a song: *Listens to Ben Folds's 'Landed'*
Still not as good as his other stuff.
This is about 40 minutes later. I still haven't posted this. I'm reading a Peter Singer essay. It's compelling.
I'm going to post this now.

Metaphysically speaking, if you had a "pet whale," would you "climb in its mouth" in order to "cross the ocean?"
I believe I would, regardless of the questions that arise during an advanced moralistic analysis of the situation.
Here's the thing, I couldn't/wouldn't have a pet whale. Whales are the most vicious animals known to man, and we know a lot of vicious animals. Whales can and will kill you, your family, your pets, and anyone or anything else that you know, without batting an eye. Whales are forces of destruction. Fear the whale.
I wonder then, maybe Whale should be one of the basic elements in games with elemental magic categories. For example, Fire, Earth, Whale... Or Whale could be a sort of Tech skill.
