One specific case of this, especially of what Kristleifur was saying, is how often people have stories of "I don't want you to do it just for me. I want you to *want to* do it." 1 will overriding the other (even if voluntarily) vs 2 acting in sync and *feeling* in sync

the recklessness that sometimes appears when I'm about to do something viscerally frightening and *do it anyway* There's a certain mental/emotional 'motion' in there that feels salient🤔

Relatively high verbal intelligence (as opposed to my NEET levels of emotional intelligence lmao) is useful in exploring / defining these feelings, pinning them down Less so in working with them or even dealing. Gonna go do some pull/push-ups, + meditate/lean into the fear and-

Instead of 'live like you'll die tomorrow, plan like you'll live forever", Brain is trying to "live like I'll live forever, plan like you'll die tomorrow" ?? (Not that pithy quotes should guide your life choices, but the inanity of Brain is captured in the juxtaposition here)

(actually working this out in explicit form for the first time, in public, whoops! need to pin down these thoughts, keep going.) wait. that makes no sense: if it's all on the verge of slipping away, why am I simultaneously acting like it's permanent, yet feeling like it's not?

More seriously, I know intellectually that 1) nothing is guaranteed 2) I, specifically, am *very* privileged to have what I do / be where I am yet brain continues to _insist_ that I'm the verge of losing everything at any moment

and the things that have been around forever? Still no guarantee A non-serious example: vim + .txt files + grep is probably a great, future-resistant way to take notes But this Big Screen crap was only made in the 70s

w a romantic partner, talking about planning a vacation together, let slip one of the "i'll touch base with you on this later" got no acknowledgement but the very understandable sideways weirded-out look in response 😅

and AFAIK being seen and accepted for what we're seen as, is a human *need*. And a beautiful thing to be a part of, whether seen or seeing

I wonder if there were a way to have healthy, intimate entanglement such that some group of people (2 or more) could do this for each other Yes, we will calm down if we just wait, but often external feedback is not only calming, it's *useful*

I was thinking about this today People (IME) *like* it when people they want to exert influence on them, do so. E.g. person you're attracted to telling you to join them Just a lot of people don't have the perception or skill to know who wants it and how

this makes me think of sneakerheads specifically irrationally: sneakerheads spend so much money on shoes that just sit around and look good rationally: do *I* do something with as much passion and knowledge and just dgaf what people think abt it? maybe could learn smthing

Roam Research. Hot water. Time with friends. A phone. Access to safe, public spaces to walk, jog around Net gain to me and world will be higher if I treat these things as baseline, and get excited to build something resting on them as foundation

E.g. Google docs will always be there. Or free email. Plumbing. Grocery stores. A way to get to work. A safe/warm bed If any of those go away for long enough that (my) life is permanently and negatively affected -- that probably means there's a bigger problem at hand

The biggest blocker there is I often get stuck worrying that what I built, with passion and energy, won't last But what does anyway. Plus I think you're pointing in a direction that overall energizes me, and that's valuable in itself, enduring creation aside
