They want to be so ‘above’ everyone else that they are accountable to no one. But this is an adolescent fantasy, once you live a bit you realize how out of line with reality it is. An employee is accountable to their manager. The manager is accountable to the CEO. The CEO is accountable to the VC’s. The VC’s are accountable to their investors. Around and around it goes. You will never find a job, a title, that makes you accountable to no one. And even if you could, what a horrifically lonely life that would be. npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose 🤣 🤣 🤣 npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose https://blossom.primal.net/fe8a9b3c7399c5dfdb75f71b65145241e4581ba4b82c9e50487228ef65b39a49.jpg npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose FYI, having an IUD inserted is at least a 5x more difficult experience than getting the side of your head tattooed. npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose Marry someone with a good sense of humor.

So one time, after a therapy appointment, I was pondering all the things that I have been "wrong" about in life, and I learned something very interesting. I don't think I've ever been wrong, but I have often been short sighted. I will see 2 & 2 and say that the answer to this dilemma is 4. Which is absolutely correct, 2 + 2 = 4!!! I am right. But after years of others insisting that the answer is 9, I finally one day stumbled onto a 5 in the equation. So of course 2 + 2 = 4, but I hadn't realized that there was also a 5 hiding in the corner. And when you add that in, then, yup, the answer is 9. Do you see what I mean? npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose https://blossom.primal.net/4fed3710c2613f6c5813fa4f3deb36858f9544f156098c7373b3e3b2f9e0fb60.jpg npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose You just really gotta respect anyone who manages to live life on their own terms.

Unfortunately that is not how the word is generally used, at least in American Christianity. npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose A lot of people absorbed the idea that “I was wrong” = “I’m a horrible person”. Unfortunately a lot of religion leans into this. In religion “I was wrong” = “I sinned” = “I’m going to be punished by god” ...which is of course terrifying! npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose You can not have a solid, close relationship with someone who does not know how to hear a critique and who is not capable of saying things like “I understand”, “I can see how that would be upsetting”, “I was wrong”, “I’m sorry”, “I’m willing to change that”, etc. Which of course does not mean that someone will always say those things. But you can’t be close to a person who can’t accept that they are a fallible human who is sometimes in error and acknowledge that and adjust. Having real, solid relationships with others requires a specific skill set, and it’s a skill set that we don’t often teach and so it’s no surprise that it’s a rare skill set. But it is something that any capable, motivated person can learn. npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose This is mostly true. The details here are that the new death penalty law does not explicitly apply only to Palestinians, but effectively does. The new law applies to military courts where only Palestinians are tried. Israeli citizens and residents including Jewish settlers are not subject to military courts. Also there is some due process, appeals are allowed, though they must be heard by a special court, and it seems that the standard procedural safeguards have been weakened. But the law does prohibit mitigation, commutation, or pardon, and it sets a 90-day deadline for execution after a final judgment. And of course the Holocaust comparison is a matter of opinion. https://blossom.primal.net/3fdc944c684b8d921cafc13a78d1a7fde7b3492573395929c2da50788fa3cd1b.jpg npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose https://blossom.primal.net/e0b9d8a594e0a64dc1561fa19e41a3b559290e374aff36a989af02161221ab6c.jpg npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose If you have negative/difficult/intrusive thoughts or feelings, don't try to stop or change what you're feeling, just change the meaning that you give it. For example, you’re on a flight and as it’s about to take off the engines get loud and the plane goes faster and faster and so does your heart! The anxiety has kicked in! And you could tell yourself a number of different things about that. You could tell your self that the plane is about to crash and we are all going to die!!! 😱 Or you could tell yourself that statistically speaking you’re in just about the safest place that you could be and you’re being a complete fucking idiot for feeling this way!!! …or, you could tell yourself that these feelings make sense as flying isn’t natural to humans.

I think y’all just don’t know what you are talking about. “Therapy just teaches you to blame others”: Not at all.

I’ve never had a therapist do anything besides encourage me to accept my parents the way in which they are. “Everything in psychology is fake, it’s a reproducibility crisis”: It’s not a crisis, it’s how science works. You have a hypothesis, you test it, if your tests confirms your hypothesis then other scientists try to reproduce it. If they can’t reproduce it then it’s back to the drawing board, if they can reproduce it then its a confirmed theory. It would be a crisis if no one was doing the science and trying to reproduce findings. And many things in psychology are proven accurate/effective via reproducible studies. “Freud was a creep”: Yes! Also pretty much everyone knows that and a lot of his theories have been discredited.

Not from a technical perspective but from a psychological one. Technically it's always been clear, and yet I’ve watched very technical, highly intelligent people get trapped in it. We over value raw intelligence and seriously undervalue emotional maturity. Not getting caught in groupthink isn’t a matter of intelligence, it’s a matter of maturity and self awareness. Humans have a big fucking issue with mania and groupthink. We expect that in places like politics but we are often blind to it in fields like science and technology. But groupthink exists anywhere that humans exist. Many years ago I became a technological determinist and decided that the best way to improve the world was to build tech. But these days sometimes I think it might be a better idea to go get a degree in psychology. npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose well it's not realistic, it's a cartoon. npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose https://blossom.primal.net/7fef215f0920c575bdb7d5df50344e88a7c109fc72982c39a84139a72bb5cc38.jpg npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose but why not?... he does look great in it! npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose Rage bait or food for thought?

I’m unaffected by this latest disaster, but I’ve lost funds in other mishaps. We all have. If this one affects you, I want to tell you that money really isn’t all that important. Which may sound insane when you’re staring at a zero balance with that pit in your stomach. And it’s also a strange thing for a Bitcoiner, with a degree in economics, to say. But, more accurately, I want to tell you that the accumulation of personal wealth is not very relevant to living a good or happy life. Now how money functions, the type of money that the world uses, that is very impactful. I don’t work in Bitcoin to stack sats, or build a citadel, or to drive a lambo, I do this work to separate money from state, to remove a giant concentration of power from the world. And having meaningful work in my life does make me a happier person. Where you spend your time and energy is wildly important, but wealth, the accumulation of stuff, is a different beast entirely. If this one affects you, I want to shake you and yell at you… WEALTH DOES NOT MAKE YOU A BETTER OR HAPPIER PERSON. Please believe me, I checked! ...a few times. I’ve been lucky enough to have seen this issue from many different angles. I grew up in a household that had some wild swings in income. One year a trailer in Florida, one year a month long vacation in Europe. I’ve lived in a roach filled studio apartment on the wrong side of town, and in a house so big you might get lost. I’ve lived among the poors and partied with the super wealthy. One time my ex won the lottery and then fell into a depression. True story. I’ve got some experience with this one! So many of us grew up with the belief that money is how you measure personal value and worth. That understanding is deep in our bones. I believed that for a long time and I fought really hard to ‘get into the room’, and then hated it there. Getting out of poverty will make you happy, but from there the more you climb that ladder, the more you find yourself in rooms filled with people absolutely desperate to prove themselves via money. People who have lost their soul. That is not winning. The accumulation of wealth is not an interesting or valuable goal in life. You can’t take the money with you. You can’t take the Twitter follower count with you. You can’t take the perfectly decorated giant house with you. You do take your story with you. And your story just got a wild new chapter.

I’ve been thinking about the zerosum, comparative mindset that most Americans suffer from… that I often suffer from. I’m trying to work this out of my head and I realized that I constantly reference an achievement map. Example, the other day I went for lunch with my husband to a lovely restaurant in Chicago not too far from a place that we used to live. It’s a restaurant that we used to go to years ago. It was nostalgic and when my brain was deciding how much I should enjoy that moment it immediately referenced the achievement map. My brain asked, where am I in my map of things I’m expected to achieve in comparison to where I was on the map when I was last at this restaurant? Am I richer? Do I have more Twitter followers? Am I thinner? On and on. I couldn’t just enjoy a delicious lunch with someone that I love. I couldn’t just appreciate the memories, my brain had to first reference the achievement map to determine if I have achieved enough to be allowed to enjoy this moment. npub1tv5j2h2742ht2a6490cdzypsxah5wlge5qyutadgphw884ynt8mqg4jlst hmichellerose Good times/bad times don’t make someone’s character, they reveal it.

Men who look down on women nearly always do so because they don’t have a better reason to like themselves. There is that zerosum hierarchy again. If you can be above a woman then you aren’t on the bottom… right?
