if someone is convincing you of something, and you start to think they're probably right, don't agree with them!

become the quieter, less confident part of you that still thinks they're wrong. listen to what it has to say. you will eventually eliminate all doubt this way

also, i get one all-caps tweet per quarter. glad i made this one count

you already have missions and goals and purpose. they're just so self-evident to you that they don't feel special enough to fit that narrative slot. but the reason they don't feel special is because you live with them all day every day

yeah idk i can't enjoy reading joan of arc anymore

people are always talk about known unknowns and unknown unknowns.

nobody ever talks about unknown knowns. the bits of knowledge you have that are extremely important, but that you don't realize are so valuable

in the talking stages, are you more attracted to people who have many or very few / no friends? what’s your own situation?

also shoutout to that girl on that podcast for the term talking stages

all else equal, is it better conversationally over text to ask a question immediately after answering one, or wait until the other person responds to your answer before asking them something?

are you more attracted to someone in the talking stages if they have a really big social group or very few friends? what’s your closest gender?
