Spite fuels me like nuclear rods. I first learned that at an audition. I played a rusty saxophone so bad that all the other kids laughed me out of the cafeteria. Iterate spite endlessly as writing output grows.

Walking horizontal is a drain, decay. Falling forward. Downward? Falling. The focus is the falling and not being hunted. Energy propelling us forward. Missing a stair step. Coming down from 1/2

I made my heritage invisible. Colonialism turned inward towards my history. A viral post on the Siksika Nation was admonished by an indigenous creator. “Maybe look into your own culture first.” And then I feel embarrassed. My branching Puerto Rican family tree. I’m reminded of 1/3

I want to treat them like a chew toy. They’re hot. And like most hot people, I want to bite them. My jaw hurts enough for a small headache. It’s uncomfortable to meet people slowly. I hallucinate this person with each projection 1/2

What do you mean if I get better, my family gets better? I just want to nag them until they do what I want. I *logically* know I only have control over myself. I don’t want to have to track all my water drinking.

5% better each day infuriates me. I want transformation movement. I want a power up with the bells and whistles. I don’t want to wake up every day at the same place on the same mountain wearing these same peasant robes. I keep finding these peasant robes in my closet when I’m groggy in the mornings.

It feels like a joke that I have to work for the better future. I do these dishes. But I can’t see tomorrow when my girlfriend uses the bowl. I can’t reach for a crystal ball that it’s all “Worth it” in the end. Even my imagination falls flat.

When did I get so attached to being clever? I was happy when I beat the Deathclaw Fallout 3 monster at 13 by shooting it as we played ring around the rosy around a table. The joy I felt then must mean that I AM the clever one. If I’m clever, then I can’t be stupid. I can’t ever be stupid.

It’s so frustrating to micro adjust my exercise movements. I’ve been in fitness for 17 years and it’s never ending adjustments. Well, and collapse. There’s hella collapsing.

What escape from delusion must happen order to live the life you prefer?This philosophical move costs comfort and certainty. A stagnating identity keeps your ego safe. Focus. Plato’s Allegory of the Cave lulls you into complacency. It assumes there’s only one cave that the “enlightened person” 1/3

As much as I don’t like learning lessons the hard way, sometimes my body really yearns for that lesson to stick in there. Never going to get horizontal directly after a meal again.

There’s damn near a limiting set of beliefs for every hobby or goal I have. I logically knew that it wouldn’t be a one and done journal. It’s a gut punch every time. “I thought I was over this.”

For most TV, it’s social thing. I need to be with people. If left on my own I watch slow burn art movies or brain melters.

Iron Lung was a slow movie. Which is exactly my aesthetic. Sign me up for slow dread any day.

Getting to the Family Services building with all this ice and this sink full of utensils and crusty plates gets delayed. My jaw gets a little tense with these logistics.

My bestie texted me for help writing an e-mail to her boss. It feels like a shame to edit it into corporate speech.

My gray black coat cat, Meowdy, stares at my screen from my lap. I can always count on her to show up. I wonder if she likes philosophy textbooks on care ethics as much as I do.

Some days I imagine picking up a roommate with my teeth and shaking them like a dog’s chew toy. I require so much energy to do the dishes of this queer household I run. Do you every find yourself low on energy when your community asks you to do a chore? Most days it feels like I’m 1/3

Strategic empathy involves reading how others construct their reality. In most conversations we hallucinate other people. We make projections, and create a false vision of them in our head that’s easier to be certain of. We avoid the uncertainty as the person slowly reveals themselves to us. 1/3

You have the “right thoughts” but do you feel good? I see people with the “right” worldview. I also see them making themselves and others miserable. No thank you. I see you eating that moldy sandwich and I’ll let you have it. I’d rather take care of my neighbors than have the correct thoughts.

How do you get through limiting beliefs after the first round? Second level and onwards. Judgement -> beliefs underneath->gently/forcefully replace. Follow your values. Dirty brains need washing! So pick up that brush and break those limits and keep your feet firmly screwed into the Earth.

How many limiting beliefs are there? They never run out. You become a diamond cutting illusions constantly. Once you learn the pattern, it’s like when scissors glide through paper or cloth, but IRL and about real life stuff.

Use me however you need to get ahead. Disagree, agree, give me the same value I give you. Your gut knows which guides are most effective for your goals. You already know the difference between good milk, and spoiled milk. I hope. Please don’t tell me about the spoiled milk you’ve drank.
