okay yeah i think it's resentment specifically. wow. everything i feel resentful about feels explosive and tricky to talk about and that's *part of the resentment*, that i feel like i have to be so incredibly careful and skilled for it to not blow up in my face

i've been feeling blocked wrt twitter for months now - like it shocks me how much better my tweets were in 2019 and 2020 when i didn't feel blocked, i just don't tweet fire anymore - and maybe it means i have a new set of things to unsuppress related to anger and resentment

Lately I’ve found that when thinking about multiple conflicts across different domains– the recurring thing at the core of all kinds of conflict is *dignity*. People want to be treated with respect. It’s kind of the bare minimum to ask for and it’s dehumanizing to have to ask

You could say one of my goals in life is to help people like you talk about resentment on the biggest possible stages in the most open hearted way to the widest possible receptive audience

people asking “why not do it privately” - because the goal is to shift public consciousness. because all the therapy you do inside your home and inside your head will not fix the pain of living in a cruel and unkind world
