So, imagine you're me at house party. Your brain gets stuck in craving-attachment patterns because it notices the shape of a Cute Girl. Now, turns out, that craving layer can be dissolved. @IkkyusDen mentioned imagining demons eating you out of compassion as a practice once. However you do it, whatever remains feels much more pure. And honest. And authentic. One thing that might happen is that you just lose interest in that Attachment Object and realize you weren't interested in Her. You were interested in the Idea of Her. Great! Another thing that might happen is that energies and vibes still float around and create conversations and opportunities from a much more Effortless and Natural place. Even Better! Turns out this "wanting" layer is just like dust collecting on a lens. A layer of coffee grounds on your delicious coffee. Unnecessary.

It should be obvious but -- the best inventions come from networks of brightest minds doing frontier research. If you wanna do cool stuff the best and easiest thing to do is put yourself in the middle of that and see what happens.

@WigglyAir yes

Guys true love comes true. Maybe I should approach dating like hiring: feverently go through 500 candidates and choose the top 0.01% clear standout. This was by far the quickest hiring decision. From the way he said "hi", I already wanted to have him. (as a colleague..).

Spotify once said my most unique taste preference was the fact that I listen to both the 80,000 Hours podcast and Gregorian Chants and I have lived on that glow for a while.

@LeRoyDesCimes pls; maybe some browser extention that makes twitter load more and more slowly would do the trick tho

I want a watch that sends an electric shock if I open Twitter more than once an hour during work hours Can I figure out

You should stare into Nora’s eyes for 30 hours

Interviewed a candidate who's Dutch name translates to Estonian roughly as "a coldhearted fart". Was very close to hiring him for the meme value.

@IkkyusDen Incroyable! How many Netflix-hours-per-day did it take?

J'ai reveille et j'ai réalise que il est temps pour activement parler français donc c'est que j'ai fait tout le jour et ferais touts les jours depuis aujourd'hui. Elle marche bien, la méthode netflix pour apprendre des langues.

Btw this applies to my CEO. I got the job partly because we accidentally met on a plane. Recently he decided not to fire me because the airport security gates told him not to. A genuine part of our strategy is manifesting new hires. Shit works.

If I learned anything at JessCamp it's that I can spot the schizos, magicians and meditators from across the room based on how comfortable I feel around them.

@OneEyedAlpaca you're ok i guess

give me the most lukewarm advice you can think of

Turns out my brain doesn't want me to admit I might have limits. So it is keeping its distance from work. Because fully committing would mean looking right at my actual limits. It would mean I could give something my best and still not be enough. Kinda annoying to admit.

@amphichrome_ suspicious...

@9chabard nicotine you can drink?

red bull you can smoke. whos building this

good news everyone 1. i just felt anger (good) 2. i turned it into metta (nice) 3. better relations with colleages (win) 4. more impact

substack is lit. it feels like twitter, but less adhd. which also means i rarely have time to actually sit down, read and digest it. but....

Have u considered that not having an ideology is also an ideology
