BRIEF GUIDE TO THIS TWITTER ACCOUNT

This is a guide dedicated to my account which is dedicated to guides and also dedicated to my accounts.
I like meta and symmetry (and symmetry about meta).

A lot of inner work content tells you βhere is what great people do, you should do thisβ and then the reader takes it to mean βcoerce yourself into this shapeβ which Does Not Work.
Ideals like go fast, accept all sensations, love all your emotions are great and admirable and you should work towards creating the conditions where they naturally arise but if you are not immediately able to follow this advice tensing harder will not make it suddenly work for you.
Itβs like putting a baby on stilts because tall people make more money.
You have to create the conditions where this behavior naturally arises but that is a developmental process which can take weeks, months, years, etcetera.
hey #TPOT what do we think of surrogacy?
never thought much about it but taking babies away from their mother seems prima facie bad. probs something to avoid?
what are the pros and cons?
also how do they avoid the much higher risk of SA when itβs 2 men?
I wonder what the legal vetting process is. @grok?
men (boys) are encouraged to dissociate
go into their head, put their nose down to the grindstone and provide, think donβt feel
this creates men who are insensitive to feelings, not just in themselves but others

βembodimentβ is
1) being able to get information from your body via sensations (emotional and physical)
and
2) capacity to interact with the environment using these sense perceptions live
(vs theorising, using existing knowledge, or thinking only abstractly/explicitly)
4/
this account analyses facial expressions, specifically what makes felons etc look weird
often talks about asymmetry and how this can indicate a mix of emotions (!) / masked emotions
inner conflict shows on the face!
