ask culture is quite obviously superior, as it makes everyone equally uncomfortable. spreads out the suffering so as to decentralize the onus.

social possibility space is so much larger than that which the cultural affordances we've inherited allow us to access

Twitter really has the worst thread authoring experience, so much low hanging fruit available for an external app to snatch up

I can't even transfer my thread drafts from my phone to desktop?? bruh

it would be cool if someone could leave you an opt-in note when blocking you to explain why

I don't really mind getting blocked, but I'm so curious as to why, I want to Understand

the optimal amount of defections in any trust-based system is nonzero; someone has to pentest it, after all

except some of you I have noticed and am refollowing specifically to annoy you because it's funny and you're a coward

one can easily get locked into a degenerative pattern, a feedback loop of alternating numbness and ferocity; many have fallen prey to such a psychodynamic pathology

luckily, it is entirely possible to fix, w/ much careful introspection and inner work.

don't ignore your anger.

Show thread

w/ each iteration of anger suppressed, the signal grows stronger, & is harder to ignore; eventually it bursts out into the open, wild & uncontrolled, often w/ interpersonal consequences. this, in turn, can cause one to suppress it even more, making the subsequent explosion larger

Show thread

even if you ignore the notification, the disequilibrium is still extant, disrupting your homeostasis. every time a message goes unacknowledged, it teaches your subconscious that it needs to speak louder, so as not to fall on deaf ears

this can become a vicious cycle

Show thread

many are not willing to consider that their anger is not necessarily conveying a true statement about the outside world, avoiding introspection or self-calibration

anger can be overwhelming, esp. if you run from it; it explodes, as it must, since the message must get out somehow

Show thread

the last one does indeed happen, but I'd be willing to bet the former two are much more common; I know i experience both regularly. through introspection and effort, it is possible to minimize their occurrence, increasing your anger's signal/noise ratio

this is controversial

Show thread

the specific message anger conveys typically has to do w/ boundary violations; your perceived coherence is somehow being impinged upon. this can happen in three ways:
1. your sense of self is over-extended
2. you are not enforcing your boundaries adequately
3. an actual violation

Show thread

like any emotion, anger is a message from your subconscious, informing you of some disequilibrium, asking you to resolve it; the feeling communicates an internal truth, but some mistake it for an external one

remember that its all in service of maintaining homeostasis

in my mind it's kind of a joke cheese state but they've been on the forefront of innovation in several domains?? for example their recent legal recognition of DAOs, which I'm fuckin psyched about

finding errors in your cognitive models is akin to finding software bugs; they were always there, but now that you're aware of them, you have the opportunity to improve; rejoice!
