    @sonyaellenmann alright sonya, question for you and/or any of our mutual followers: what’s the deal with the “become good” slogan? backstory, connotations, etc.? i feel like it’s a “✓ ingroup” thing that i never entirely picked up on

        I'd ask @VesselOfSpirit, maybe @willdoingthings as far as I know it came from weird sun twitter, and I always interpreted it as a critique of excessively meta advice

        Doesn't "*become* good" imply you're not currently good?

        Weirdly, I don’t relate to “become good,” perhaps because “good” is so often associated with a top-down reformist attitude moralizing others. ☺️ I’m ok with “discover good” as an aspiration though, to unexpectedly make contact with something outside of ourselves and within.
