They say 'the reward for doing good work is more work', and 'there are no prizes for meeting basic requirements'. That's not very motivating. Let's change the incentives. Post a recent thing you did which you could use just that little bit of encouragement or appreciation for!

I genuinely believe that people don't appreciate just how much of all the bad vibes right now are still largely a COVID hangover. It was a profoundly traumatizing event for American society, on the order of the civil war or the great depression and we've largely decided to just pretend

I think the concept of epistemic hygiene got too caught up on how to avoid contaminating others with your icky biases and not enough on how to clean up the aftereffects of using logic in your head. Because, you know, thinking stuff isn't actually a neutral action.

Today I channeled Loki for flexibility. My offering is to be telling people terrible jokes, also maybe burning a piece of beef later to keep with tradition. "He's not picky" , except I am highly skeptical. He's gonna want something really over the top next time I know it.

I have decided. Fuck trying to find a leftbrain frame for magical thinking, I'm gonna become a witch. No more distantly appreciating the aesthetic; time to cast spells. It's dumb to believe in the psychological power of ritual and not be making regular use of it to adjust my own psychology.

With a ketchup bottle, one will squeeze out as much sauce as their heart desires or more. With ketchup packets, one will squeeze out just as many as they have the patience to and ratchet down their dipping to fit. I bet this is a metaphor for something

Thinking about the difference between: - we can’t prove he did this thing, which is a crime - we can prove he did this thing, but can’t treat it as a crime - we can prove he did this thing, which is a crime but shouldn’t be What does it mean if he shot the guy, but did not commit murder?

Chisenbop is such a clever counting system, but it turns out that with any significant quantity of items I need one of my hands to mark WHERE I am at in the space of things-to-count or I'll keep losing my place.

Sometimes I think about how violent, sex negative, and weirdly vanilla dark romance is. I also wish I could explain proper gang/mafia related codes of ethics vs an MMC who is just violent and emotionally abusive. Loving a bad man is different than he’s not bad because I love him.

Woke 3.0 is the most powerful Woke we’ve ever made. It has a 69 megapixel camera, the brand new T4T Ultra chip, and it’s optimized for Woke Intelligence. And it’s available for pre-order later today. We think you’re going to love it.
