can u truly say u own ur body if you haven't made efforts to explore a significant portion of its configuration-space? ur body is not a funko pop to keep perfectly preserved on the shelf of life but a passion project antique roadster; use it, abuse it & then fix it right back up

It is morally obligatory to move in funny physical ways that give you stretches you've never felt before

I should note that this tweet was motivated by equal parts "bluesky is invite-only", "bluesky is not available on android", "what's wrong with Mastodon guys, it works well and already exists", and "hey use my thing pls I made it for u"

for those who can't or wont move to bluesky, a reminder that my Mastodon server is still around and pretty active

Mastodon, and the fediverse, is the least bad solution we've tried so far imo for the typical social media user's problems; most people are perfectly happy to delegate many decisions to some authority, so long as their needs are met
is this a bad thing?

negativity kills the spirit, kneecaps passion, and chains one's joy
spiritual ossification stems from a fear of the new, and the remedy is bold vulnerability
maybe its okay to unironically like the weird new thing; it will always be easier to stay still

spiritual ossification entails the loss of this quality; many equate this with adulthood, but it need not be so.
those who are young at heart remain free of sin

the irony of this approach is that an identity composed of layered negations is not self-sufficient, being defined in reference to external factors, and as such naturally tends to stagnate, not possessing internal affordances for renewal or growth

I'll also passed thru this personality phase; I loved to dump on php and pop music, to smugly deride anything basic and popular. in reality, this was a combination of clumsy attempts at legitimate criticism, fueled by insecurities about being an outcast

devs who still make this kinda joke feel out of touch bc you've been able to vertically center a div with one line since like 2013, a decade …

as always I'm just mocking my past self
it's ok tho that guy really did find value in these ideas & he didn't have an existing connection to any spiritual tradition or font of wisdom due to the havok WW2 & the holocaust wrecked on the continuity of his family's inherited wisdom
