I understand it was a tough win with a lot of nerves, but to celebrate like that against a teenager... Really? 🤦♂️
Another confirmation that Kyren Wilson's the biggest cunt on the tour. And no one is even close.

@Frankbone17 @thedarshakrana There are no drug references in the movie other than smoking.
And only two people smoke.
Cypher, and Oracle.
Think about that.

The most quoted "there's no spoon" scene from Matrix is the most misunderstood scene.
The boy tells Neo the spoon doesn't exist.
Most people think this means "nothing is real, everything is simulation."
Wrong interpretation.
Completely backward.
The spoon exists. The child exists. The conversation exists.
What doesn't exist is the boundary between the spoon and Neo.
The separation is the illusion.
When you try to bend a spoon with your mind, you're operating from the assumption that "you" are separate from "spoon." Subject acts on object. Mind controls matter. That duality creates the impossibility.
The child figured out something neuroscientists are just confirming:
Your brain doesn't distinguish between self and environment the way you think it does. The neural networks that represent "your body" extend seamlessly into the networks that represent "the space around your body." The boundary exists in language, not in neural reality.
For example, a tennis racket becomes an extension of your arm, a race car becomes an extension of your body. The instrument stops being separate and starts being you.
The spoon bends because Neo stops treating it as external. The separation dissolves.
There's no spoon to manipulate because there's no separate self doing the manipulating.
This is grounded in science. Embodied cognition research shows your brain can map the tools and objects you focus on as real extensions of your body schema. Pianists’ brains often represent piano keys within their finger map. Surgeons’ brains can represent their instruments as extended limbs.
The Matrix scene was accidentally teaching applied neuroscience disguised as sci fi philosophy.
The real takeaway:
Stop trying to change things outside yourself. Recognize that the "outside" is a cognitive construction.
The spoon bends when you realize you are the spoon.

@Frankbone17 @thedarshakrana "You think that is air you are breathing?"
Blood is blue until is has oxygen.
You bleed red.

@Drumpfald @thedarshakrana i used to believe the cookie and the pill were drug references, along with the white rabbit reference, but there are good counter arguments. the digital 'cookie' is a good one, as is the tracking programme.
English

@thedarshakrana The cookie is the most misunderstood scene.
He had to accept cookies so oracle could track him.

@TheSergioGarcia You don’t have to apologize for anything. The only one who should apologize is Rory for skipping multiple events & then playing Augusta day in and day out.
He won last year and doesn’t know how to act.
Others masters don’t do that because they have class & integrity.

@TomiLahren There are 10 cops there for 1 guy with a 2x4.
And they let the dog get beat for about 10 seconds before doing anything.
Pathetic.
English

@MEKowalski @CalebJHull Kinda like Rory lol. He is sunshine and rainbows when he wins too. Rory Chokeilroy will make excuses and pin blame when he loses tho
English

She didn’t run to him, she didn’t smile, and she ran away immediately after this pic.

Rory and his daughter Poppy after he won his second Masters 💚

@JeffEisenband Took Rory 3 consecutive weeks of practice to beat him by 1 stroke… Lamest win ever.

@MattBraynard do we work for language or does language work for us? as ever, it's a point of prioritisation. what is more important, the medium or the message?
English

@bhogleharsha it's a no brainer. everyone except Miller knows the answer

we don't need such brainless spectators. definitely an Indian

@KP24 gimme a break, KP. hero to zero. he just had to take the single. he'd have cemented himself in the hearts of DC. but he did the Chokeas thing. it broke me as a cricket spectator. no more!
