this tweet was inspired by beat saber ranking a careful perfect run lower than a higher energy one with mistakes

turns out that optimizing for no mistakes is cope for spiritual cowardice

hard pill to swallow that more domains reward gusto than perfection

like look at this shit and tell me they wouldn't be perfectly at home at a ridgewood club

early 2000s video game character designs really were the pinnacle of fashion

we stan a deconstructionist queen

my sister was really onto something when I showed her some music I like and she said "this is just sounds"

they live in blessed ignorance and it would be cruel to deprive them of this gift

A lot of people on here have what I'd call a "Noble Savage" view of "Normies"

untangling the cyclic dependency of spiritual freedom and deep connection requires making risky acausal bargains with your future friends

but to connect with others, you must first take the risk of letting them see you; you must wear your heart on your sleeve, let out all your cringe, not shy away from the contents of your soul

Cause no one's gonna find you
When you're hiding in the dark

a tight-knit cluster of friends who know and love each other is the most powerful social force there is; no outside influence can corrupt their bonds nor usurp their right to self-determination

pursuing deep connection is, ironically, the path to spiritual freedom

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

cybernetic ossification is a terminal state

youth is a quality of the spirit, a perpetual maintenance of alchemic optionality; an ergodicity of the identity dialectic

this gift is one of ways we can maintain our spiritual freedom into adulthood, to hold onto the springtime of life deep into summer and fall; you need not fear change if you know you'll always have a home to return to, that you cannot wander so far as to become unrecognizable

paradoxically, the deeper you are known, the freeer you are to explore your Self, the more empowered to self-actualize, being, as you are, unchained by social expectations. your worth has been validated by another giving you root access to their heart, trusting you w/ their soul

it must be appreciated how significant of a gift letting someone into ur heart is; a simulation, just as any cognitive process, is metabolically expensive, scaling supralinearly in proportion to model res

each ratcheting of interpersonal closeness costs dearly in opportunity

this means that being Seen by someone deeply can counteract the regulating influence of myriad low-res observers; this is part of why we crave close connection, to free ourselves from social chains

those with a few real friends are free from the judgements of greater society

our tulpic network is heterogenous, with nodes varying in resolution, and correspondingly the weight afforded to their observations and hence contributions to intersubjective mutual surveillance
