main thing i don't like about this idea is that it feels "ungrounded." had a DM conversation with which helped clarify this a lot - i don't want coaching to be the primary thing i do, i want something else more concrete that grounds and tests the coaching
Conversation
it's like the old "rationalists should have secret identities" - if you're in the job of going meta real hard on human nature or w/e you still need an object-level pursuit that grounds and tests your insights and i don't really know where to look for that yet

there's a real frustration here which is good at tapping into and making explicit - there's so much untapped wealth in our social graph. there are brilliant people who could do brilliant things together, that *make money* in a way that isn't *terrible*

i don't think it's overgeneralizing too much to say that this corner of twitter attracts the sort of people who wouldn't be and aren't happy in traditional jobs working for bosses etc. but there are so many of us! we could just make jobs for each other instead!

maybe the real rebellion against capitalism is to build wealth with the squad while maintaining impeccable ethical standards the whole way

yeah but also, as they say, if capitalism is for dead soulless husks then only dead soulless husks will be capitalists

resigning yourself to failure from the beginning because of the system you reside in seems like an unhelpful belief
