Misfits aren't misfits among other misfits.
Misfits
Men are four; he who knows and knows not that he knows. he is asleep; wake him. he who knows not and knows not that he knows not. he is a fool; shun him. he who knows not and knows that he knows not. he is a child; teach him. he who knows and knows that he knows. he is a king; follow him. the heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.

At least nine-tenths of all the original reality ever created lies outside the multiverse, and since the multiverse by definition includes absolutely everything that is anything, this puts a bit of a strain on things. outside the boundaries of the universe lie the raw realities, the could-have-beens, the might-bes, the never-weres, the wild ideas, all being created and uncreated chaotically like elements in fermenting supernovas. just occasionally where the walls of the worlds have worn a bit thin, they can leak in.

"these children are under my protection," bes insisted. "i don't know you," i said, "i never met you before today." "nonsense. you expressly asked for my attention." "i didn't ask for the speedo patrol!

If a sound body and a sound mind, which is as much as to say health and virtue, are to be preferred before all other considerations, ought not men, in choosing a business either for themselves or children, to refuse such as are unwholesome for the body, and such as make a man too dependent, too much obliged to please others, and too much subjected to their humors in order to be recommended and get a livelihood?

Our goal in the '70s was to end the closed door era. there were so many things that were off limits to women, policing, firefighting, mining, piloting planes. and the stereotypical view of people of a world divided between home and child caring women and men as breadwinners, men representing the family outside the home.
