Player Name Jay 2 Character Name Jerry Pascal, aka Rob Boss, aka Rick James Links & Reasoning When only one other Summoned volunteers to run for representative, Jerry gets the brain weasels. Lurching up from his chair, he marches to the front, snatches whatever magic microphone or talking stick is being used, and it starts like this:
Jerry: Vote for me for President. Meeting organizer: Representative. Jerry: Gesundheit. Jack Townsend, from the back: Why? Jerry: Because. Jack: No.
And so, Jerry embarks on a long, winding, yet strangly moving speech. it starts with the mathematical concept of the axiom of choice and Alain Badiou's discussion of set theory and how math directly informs ontology - the study of existence. a person, as a multiplicty, is people/humanity, but set theory involves a strict prohibition on self-belonging; a set cannot contain or belong to itself, thus a single man running for president (representative) cannot be seperated from humanity, for we are all one, and what benefits one element of the set benefits all elements within the set. somehow, this feeds into government, which includes a short lecture on communism and socialism for all those not from earth, and rounds out to a tale of his latest vision quest, in which a oppossum made of pure starlight read him his destiny: to alievate suffering from the troubled masses, be a slightly above average leader of dudes (gender neutral), and become a famous hair model on instagram. In takes about 10 minutes, and the organizer tries to stop him several times, but he dodges them like Ronaldo going for a goal. It ends with "Jerry out". He holds out the talking stick and drops it like a mic.
