      I think there is a “patriarchy” of sorts. It’s that almost all forms of communication are masculine. Scalable technologies force the medium to become the message. E.g.

      Career insight: Manager positions are useless. Every manager became one b/c there was a period of necessity where they took the role. You'll never go 'up' in your career this way unless you encounter that necessity event.

      What distinguishes a house vs a home is that a home builds roots. Like a tree house. If you've lived somewhere and don't feel like you've actually placed down roots then you're not in a 'home'. You're in a Grand Central Terminal in a Big City trying to Get Somewhere.

      Stress and anger are like molecules. When you deconstruct them into their specific atomic emotions they break apart. When the subtle knife of rationality is applied to splitting these molecules, stress and anger dissipate.

          Consciousness as God is God as the messenger that brings messages from the “other" to the "self". It is the neutral "source" of everything that wraps around every piece of good and bad news. It doesn't care about you just like a tree doesn't care about you.

          Something interesting that I noticed about my thought streams is that they tend to loop in on themselves when they feel "complete". There's a similarity to the "Hero's Journey". Expanded this into some thoughts on "Idea Chains" 👇

          One of the reasons it's so hard to be yourself nowadays is that being yourself involves an element of abrasiveness. There are a few things that come together to make being yourself a 'bad' thing to do.

          Is it possible to talk to yourself? I end up observing two entities talking to each other. One located "somewhere" and the other in my head.

          21/ This makes it more difficult to reign in the generals who are hellbent on continuing their empire building. It's like creating a Bank of Braavos. If I am a general that wants to create a coup, I WANT the existence of sth like the Bank of Braavos to hire my mercenaries.

          "There isn't a self to improve." often misleads. There IS a self to improve. It's just that this self is a CHARACTER. It's like an unhappy manga artist giving her character a better power in an attempt to be a happy manga artist.

          A bad lip reading of the book Gateless Gatecrashers. Intro: Ilona(I) and Elena(E) convince 21 people they are not real despite their intellectual conviction that they already don't exist. Also done in a nice way unlike Jed McKenna's mean way.

          The manifestation vacuum concept for example is a useful rationality <-> post-rationality bridge. Manifestation: If reality has enough information so that something happens somewhere, then that thing happens. Reality *is* just a bunch of info calculation done by atoms bumping

          My favorite model of money is as tokenized human energy. Gold is very special in that it's a form of tokenized energy that issued from the Bank of God.

          It’s quite possible that lower caste people *like* caste systems. Here’s an example: First take the word “caste system” and blur its normal association (e.g. Indian ‘Untouchables’, slavery, etc...) by combining it with European aristocracy.

          An addiction to knowledge develops when the child is first made to feel that “my feelings don’t matter.” The coping mechanism becomes a variation on “I will make my thoughts Important.”

          You exist in many hierarchies of value and mostly know where you stand in each of them. E.g. wealth, smarts, strength, creativity, popularity, etc... But for self-knowledge, it's *crucial* that you also know what your "main" hierarchy of value is.

          Not only is this constant judgement, criticism, and wishing a drag but deep down the Author also *DOESN'T* want to finish the story. (since it ends in death) MLUUN is the original Necronomicon. It is the book of the dead, the book of the past.

          “Chop wood, carry water” is the equivalent to many religious folk repeating their old metaphorical stories instead of rooting their lesson in the present.
