@wholebodyprayer 100%! no-one is broken everyone's just following safety it's never lack of willpower, or discipline find a way to show your body that some other behaviour is safe, connecting, and the previous one will disappear on its own (or don't! keep doing what you're doing. all is well)

You cannot shame people into consuming less. Everything happens for a reason. Consumption happens for a reason. When we feel lack, we want More. Once acquired, it stope scratching the itch and we need more. But what is the itch? The illusion of seperateness. If you shame people they will consume even more to try and feel better. No, instead help people enjoy what is freely given already. Help people feel the reality of elemental delight that is the incarnate universe. It’s our birthright to enjoy our already-given life. With the flowers, and as a flower. . Oh and judging others for consuming is also consuming. Its consuming a heady cocktail of righteousness and superiority. Denounce systems and cultural patterns, not individuals.

@r00k @tinyrevver And again, I don't think there's much good in doing laundry and dishes while resisting the experience, complaining how much you resent it, only doing it because you 'should' / 'have to'. Connect with your joy/agency for it or stop doing it

@r00k @tinyrevver There's also a tremendous amount of joy and pleasure in mundane tasks if you let yourself find it. You don't need laundry and dishes they're just good dojos for practicing accessing joy in any moment instead of thinking you need specific externals for joy

Is it in some way good for you to do chores like laundry or dishes even if you could trivially afford to outsource those tasks?

Also, so many brands and influencers are just copy/pasting whatever AI spits out and to me, it immediately devalues the content and I usually skip it. I was 100% people are able to recognize it, but guess I was wrong.

50% of people on my recent linkedin poll were not able to identify that a short "motivational" caption was written by AI. I made sure it had all the telltale signs of AI slop. Wow.

@childofeternal @georgiedorothea Less sensitive people are impacted too they just don't notice in the moment, they notice the buildup of it later as discontent/misery/loneliness/etc

@childofeternal @georgiedorothea I'm noticing that sensitive people are highly attuned to the nourishment they get when they experience something a person put love into creating. And so they notice when it's missing/reduced (AI ick)

I still can't pinpoint why ai generated images are so repelling to me... even if the message is good there's just like an involuntary visceral, full-body rejection

Eventually there will be a bounce back, where we realise the bots don't nourish our souls like humans do. But the road there will be bumpy
Aaron Francis@aarondfrancis

@MichaelThiessen @stuxnet_vt @laracasts I am but one man, but I think the very low level stuff is dead or dying. In part because AI can just do it, and in part because everyone *believes* AI can just do it. Same thing but different. I think the more strategic education is still necessary, but not sure for how long

People outsource their opinion of you to you
Max@minordissent

I think my biggest take away from the way everyone is responding to this is a reminder that: your self image dictates how other people see you. If he just said “yeah i don’t really find little kids that stimulating. After about 15 minutes i get bored” literally no one would have cared because that’s how the vast majority of dads feel. But all the self attack and shame and loaded language in the post primed half the people to read it in a far more sinister way (“he hates his kids and can’t bear to spend more than 10 minutes with them!’”) and the other half to see an easy mark who already hates himself, so felt much more comfortable piling on with more criticism. The way you treat yourself is the way you’re asking others to treat you. They assume you know yourself better than they do so they trust your opinion. If you hate yourself, so will everyone else. If you respect yourself, so will everyone else.

God is always with you. I was just driving and feeling a bit lonely, contemplative, and reflective. I’ve been thinking about my next move across the world, starting fresh and knowing no one, and looking for direction and clarity on the way forward. As I was having these thoughts, a few hundred birds begin flying directly above my car for a few hundred yards down the road… almost as if to say “we’re with you, keep going.” The music in the background also perfectly encapsulates this moment and emotional state. Brought a tear to my eye and immense gratitude. Quite a profound divine moment.

I just spent 10 minutes searching for an app I wanted. Couldn't find anything that suited. 9 minutes later me and AI have built and shipped it 🤯

@vitobotta @Shpigford How much better our work & our life get when we can let go of how we think we "should" be and own what we want x.com/shaisc/status/…
Shai Schechter@shaisc

it's about… why capable people are feeling more burnt out, disconnected, stuck in people-pleasing than ever the ways we strive to accomplish, achieve, act a certain way to be 'good enough' and what unfolds when we can let go of those conditions and own what we truly want
