Feeling mildly flu[-]ish – [W] and I seem to have become much more susceptible since [d] started going to mother and toddler group, and now play school – I must risk incoherence and try to recall and record the meaning of my notes before they fade.

If I am right about the position of various occupations around the Circle, it means that crafts (and science and technology) cannot go down without going [sic] Outer Circle into Distraction and danger, whereas Visual Art (and other creative forms) can go up to Simplification or down through Diversity towards Harmony etc.. The point is that Distraction is far more dangerous than Diversity.
