    A: "I want you to jump through a bunch of hoops I just made up." B: "I don't see how that accomplishes any of my goals." A: "Wow, you can't jump through my hoops *and* accomplish your goals at the same time? Sounds like you're not very good at what you do!"

    Oh, did you see that documentary? Oh, you mean the one where they take the most extreme example they could find and pretend it’s a sample of what happens everywhere? No, I didn’t. But I can share some data on the topic if you’re interested.

    If you build your self-image entirely around things you cannot contribute to, you will always feel abandoned.

    Many crimes are punished differently based on "intent", but that word is vague: Some think it means "intended the actual consequences", others think it means "with any malicious intent". I think a lot of equivocation around punishment depends on this ambiguity.

    When somebody says one thing and acts otherwise, we call it hypocrisy. But more common is to act in one way, and then deny that you are acting in that way. I've seen this referred to as "gaslighting", but that's a broad category. Is there a specific term for this?

    don't feel like you need to take these things any more seriously than you would a study on the optimal consumption of pineapples released by the Association of Pineapple Producers and Processors

    reminder: virtually all "social science" studies 1. only provide summaries and analyses of selected data, not the whole set 2. only finalize their methods and hypothesis after the study is complete 3. provide no way to verify that anything described in the study actually happened

    If your response to experiencing a pattern you despise is to replicate that pattern a thousand times more, you have no memetic immune system and have become a host.

    now that i've told people the half of the facts that support my position, if you tell them the other half, you're misleading and cherry picking

    Trapping animals in nets and snares, freeing them, and then basking in their appreciation because they're smart enough to know I saved them but too stupid to figure out I set the traps.

    If you want to be included in something, don't expect that thing to function exactly the same when you are included as it did when you were not.

    Congratulating ourselves on not knowing how to do something we say isn't even challenging

    Thinking about the difference between "a role that is set aside for you" and "a role you are expected to fill". A lot of people seem to speak past each other on these terms.

    You know, I live by a very strong set of principles and ideals, and I acknowledge when I've fallen short. (This means I can now extract apologies from you for not meeting the criteria I set.)
