2/ focusing on one leg of the tripod (DEX, INT, STR) at the expense of the other two is the most painful way to develop as a person

3/ I personally put most if not all of my skill points in INT. Problem is- without DEX, you're wasting your INT processing contaminated data

4/ and without STR, your INT gets into elaborate StrangeLoops trying to explain itself. You become a crazy scientist type. Or Amos Yee.

5/ STR without DEX and INT is brute, blunt, easily exploited. Think Boxer from Animal Farm. Or you might hurt others with blind recklessnees

6/ a lot of young men fall into this weird STR-worshipping cult. Work 100 hr weeks. Lift till you puke. Unsustainable machismo. And boring!!

7/ DEX without INT and STR is pretty rare. DEX is probably hardest to learn, so most people learn it late. You get silent Watchmen types

8/ My heart aches for the pure DEX heroes. They know something is wrong but they don't know what to do about it. Anxiety. Injustice. Pain.

9/ School attempts to teach you INT and some STR with little to no DEX. This is hollow and fragile. You get good at playing static games.

@sebinsua I would say muscle, energy, time are all forms of capital, and yup- STR is the execution of that capital (as informed by INT+DEX)1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes - 5 more replies
