(A.N) WHITEHEAD.Adeventure of ideas.CUP.Cambridge.1947(1933).ix+392pp.:"Also, the importance of truth now emerges. Truth of belief is important, both in itself and in its consequences. But above all, there emerges the importance of the truthful relation of Appearance to Reality. A grave defect in truth limits the extent to which any force of feeling can be summoned from the recesses of Reality. The falsehood thus lacks the magic by which a beauty beyond the power of speech to express can be called into being, as if by the wand of an enchanter. It is for these reasons that the civilization of a society requires the virtues of Truth, Beauty, Adventure and Art.(pp364-365 in cap.XIX ADVENTURE) ; "SECTION VIII. The wide scope of the notion of 'society' requires attention. Transcendence begins with the leap from the actuality of the immediate occasion to the notion of personal existence, which is a society of occasions. In terms of human life, the soul is a society. Care for the future of personal existence, regret or pride in its past, are alike feelings which leap beyond the bounds of the sheer actuality of the present. It is in the nature of the present that it should thus transcend itself by reason of the immanence in it of the 'other'. But there is no necessity as to the scale of emphasis that this fact of nature should receive. It belongs to the civilization of consciousness to magnify the large sweep of harmony. | Beyond the soul there are other societies, and societies of societies. There is the animal body ministering to the soul: there are families, groups of families, nations, species, groups involving different species associated in the joint enterprise of keeping alive. These various societies, each in its measure, claim loyalties and loves. In human history the various responses to these claims disclose the essential transcendence of each individual actuality beyond itself. The stubborn reality of the absolute self-attainment of each individual is bound up with a relativity which it issues from and issues into. The analysis of the various strands of relativity is the analysis of the social structure of the Universe, as in this epoch."(pp.375-376 in cap.XX PEACE)

"'God's own life is an adventure, for the novel enjoyments that are promoted among the creatures are then the experiences providing the material for God's own enjoyment. 'The Unity of Adventure includes the Eros which is the living urge towards all possibilities, claiming the goodness of their realization.' (AI 381.) And God's life is also an adventure in the sense of being a risk, since God will feel the discord as well as the beautiful experiences involved in the finite actualizations: 'The Adventure of the Universe starts with the dream and reaps tragic Beauty.'" - John B. Cobb, Jr., David Ray Griffin; Process Theology: an Introductory Exposition

Have fun playing video games!
Headcanon: Whitehead and Stu Pendles are brothers. Stu picked a hat like Whitehead’s to mess with him. It also sometimes helps him avoid Carol Cross.
Well that's sweet of Whitehead to take the heat for Stu from time to time... but Carol is probably gonna catch on. I highly doubt she's a dumb girl
(Now I'm imagining her saying "Do you think I look stupid or something!?" and someone very STUPIDLY saying yes... and they were never heard from again XD)

~ Long Post
(Edit: redid the whole thing. I feel like it looks better now. Original at the end of the post.)
“Pendles, where is my money?!”
“Carol, did you really mistake me for my brother again?”
“Ugh…sorry, Whitehead…if you see him, let me know, alright?”
“Sure.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Just for fun (and also cause of their hats) I headcanon that Stu Pendles and Whitehead are brothers. Stu learned to mimic his brother’s voice and despite them not being twins, they look similar enough, so Stu gets away with it some of the time.

Headcanon - Whitehead is a reptile breeder, by hobby before the Toppat Clan but as a job upon joining as most divisions don’t have a good place for pets that don’t need enclosures and are in high demand among animal loving Toppats. He’s dipping his toes into breeding axolotls as well.
If this looks familiar, I am recreating all my headcanon posts from my reblog blog and putting them here.

(AN) WHITEHEAD. Adventure of Ideas. CUP. 1933 (1947). ix+392pp.Bib ULiège 49 WHI. PART 1 SOCIOLOGICAL. Epilogue(p127): "At this stage we conclude that the consideration of that group of ideas that most directly contributed to the civilisation of the behaviour-systems of human beings in their intercourse with each other. This improvement depended on the slow growth of mutual respect, sympathy, and general kindliness. All these feelings can exist with the minimum of intellectuality. Their basis is emotional, and humanity acquired these emotions by reason of its unthinking activities amid the course of nature.[...]"
