for years i’ve been putting [my common first name]@gmail.com on web forms where i didn’t actually want to get the marketing messages, mainly just to spite the fucker who got the email address in 2004

i also spend too much time on twitter dot com, where this sort of thing is strongly incentivized

yeah i try to, but it’s difficult/impossible to do it entirely, since i have little control over who shows up at larger events, or what people choose to talk about

it bums me out that disparaging other people is socially lucrative in most contexts

yes, donkey is one of the main characters in the shrek franchise, and he is magically transformed into a ‘noble steed’ in the sequel (which is better than the original)

somewhat similar to @visakanv on observing micro-reactions, but in an adversarial context

especially w people you don’t know well, it’s difficult and probably inaccurate to assume there are shared baseline values
in disagreements, i often feel like i learn more about my opponent’s position from *the way they interpret my challenges* than from their actual argument

the best conversations require a level of charitable non-judgment that is difficult to establish in a practical time frame

over time, consistent performance begins to calcify into an identity, which is maintained by the expectations of the social context in which it formed

the least-resistance-self probably is the one that feels most authentic or true
it also changes over time, and with effort you can direct the flow of those changes in an aspirational direction
which is (i think) what we’re doing here on alt twitter

i think it aligns pretty well with your ‘favorite self’, or your aspirational identity
though for some people that identity might not be particularly socially successful (in a conventional sense)?

i think your ‘authentic self’ is often times not the one you perform for the greatest amount of time (e.g. i perform my ‘inauthentic’ professional self 40hrs a week)
it’s also not necessarily the sub-identity you revert to when you’re alone/with friends (e.g. depressed people)

i’m fairly convinced that your ‘authentic self’ is just the version of yourself that you’re most accustomed to performing in the most contexts

simultaneously, there’s a certain upper class disdain for traditional stable lifestyles (stay in hometown, modest professional aspirations, marry and have kids young)
despite this being, afaict, a really nice way to live
