  1. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@vaporous_ford Haha yes! Quakerism is like analog decentralized p2p network, listening is the main spiritual practice https://www.quakercloud.org/system/files/cloud_attachments/Resources%20Faithfulness%20groups%20deep%20%20listening.pdf
  2. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@eurydicelives The place I feel most heard is my religious discussion group- Quakers have these particular conversational norms of silence and sincerity that are very calming.
  3. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@nvpkp @jachaseyoung Paw through the recently returned books- I’m always curious what other people are reading
  4. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@eurydicelives The obvious stuff- giving full attention (not on phone etc), nonverbal signals of interest, asking clarifying questions and leading questions anticipating where the conversation is going, allowing pauses for thought, being more receptive than decisive
  5. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@VividVoid_ @_ramsaybrown Don’t you think fear is there to tell you it’s a bad idea? Too much overriding my shy instincts led to some terrible experiences.
  6. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · repostRT @deepfates: I was going to do 100 cover songs on TikTok, but they gave me a copyright violation for using the instrumental stems. Gues…
  7. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · repostRT @BashoSociety: a cat snoring deeply in the heat Issa
  8. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@superparmigiano So true! I tend to have a lot of ideas- hypothetical explanations, spurious funny correlations, proposals and possibilities… a blank stare and shrug is far far worse than vehement disagreement!
  9. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@superparmigiano 🥹 yes…
  10. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@superparmigiano What feels different? I relate to this so much- feel terrible when I meet someone new, am excited to spend time with them, and then after a few conversations lose all interest
  11. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@punishedlump Rise and shine! ☀️ https://t.co/zfnCEXUiKG

  15. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@sneedkuanyew And their child?
  16. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@Greg_Oryel @mattyglesias Yes, in a way that increases the odds that others will follow their example. When some ppl are obnoxiously bragging “that makes me smart” and the rest keep quiet, it seems as if everyone is a tax cheat.
  17. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@mattyglesias Yes this- when enough ppl are cheating it starts to feel stupid to do the right thing.
  18. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · repostRT @richardbranson: An incredible project using AI to decode communication. I met the team behind it recently, and felt really inspired: ht…

  25. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@vgr Oh. I was thinking my AI fren would listen to the Muzak and navigate for me
  26. Aug 12, 2022Twitter · reply@made_in_cosmos Imo I’m not normie because when I’m having neurological weirdness ppl ask if I’m on drugs (and I’m not!) .., if my hypomanic behavior was normal and common I don’t think it would elicit so much feedback and encouragement to see a dr?

  31. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@eurydicelives Sad truth is that they’re more upset that you weren’t interested in their opinion than by the thought that some of their brethren are boorish brutes.
  32. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@eurydicelives Now poll how many times you didn’t consent at all, sigh. Men suck

  34. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · postMe & who? (Inspired by @Noahpinion) https://t.co/CVLuyF6z6l
  35. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@VenemousTurnip (Sorry, in a bit of a *mood* about this topic- random guy just followed me along the sidewalk saying “hey beautiful” and asking me to go somewhere with him. Sigh.)
  36. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@VenemousTurnip So… I should sleep w someone who *is* having regular sex before meeting me? Is that a guy in a relationship? Just got dumped? Or manwhore?
  37. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@geekchick Voice on the other shoulder: you’d look so hot in that shirt 😈

  45. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@QualyThe 😴🫶
  46. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@chrisgardenuk Yes often enough… but it should be clear from what I say (and don’t say) and the context that it’s more an audition than a relationship?
  47. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@chrisgardenuk But the pushiness is a big factor in making it one-time-only…
  48. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@vaporous_ford @chrisgardenuk It sometimes works… and always makes me resentful and ghost afterwards

  54. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@skooookum What’s your threadcount?
  55. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@xlr8harder @HikeMix @ESYudkowsky @WallfacerAG If I was saying “no way you’ll never convince me” I can see it… but my tone was just uncertain- I really would like to understand how they arrive at the conclusion that slower is better EV
  56. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@eurydicelives The replies are why casual sex is preferable?
  57. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@HikeMix @xlr8harder @ESYudkowsky @WallfacerAG Yeah, feels like we’re all talking past each other… had a dinner conversation abt AI Safety, wasn’t convinced by the hand-waving version of the argument… was hoping for pointers to detailed written & numerical arguments, instead got negged that I wasn’t smart enough to get it
  58. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@MarkovMagnifico @xlr8harder Yes please!

  61. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@redoatz @_holyweather Lmao exactly… I spend a lot of time alone and quiet, letting my thoughts drift past… while curled up in bed with a body pillow
  62. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@AlexGodofsky I don’t see much of this, but also it’s not true of the psychiatrists I’ve seen- for bipolar they push meds pretty hard and just offer therapy as “if you’re interested I can refer you to someone” afterthought.

  67. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@dhomochameleon I mean I have to sit for work (standing desk doesn’t work for me for various reasons)… sitting more when I’m not working is healthy because I have a different intention and perspective on the sitting?
  68. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@joodaloop Twitter is like a slot machine- the fact that it only sometimes works is part of the thrill. https://t.co/fyIcxGByOs
  69. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@nonpoccafe Imo the reversion to recommended tweets rather than latest tweets is more insidious.
  70. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · reply@rickyflows I’ll be curious to see how badly you want to forget this discovery after a month of it.
  71. Aug 11, 2022Twitter · postHow is it that “sitting for 8 hours per day will kill you” and yet meditation “just sitting” is a wellness activity?

  76. Aug 10, 2022Twitter · quoteMy quarrel w longtermists is mostly that they’re overconfident in their ability to forecast the results of their actions. https://x.com/waitbutwhy/status/1476962460049584136
  77. Aug 10, 2022Twitter · reply@mattyglesias The thing about less-urgent charity work is that it might be that particular cause or nothing at all given that person’s skills and constraints; so as long as what they’re doing isn’t actually harmful…

  87. Aug 10, 2022Twitter · reply@kingcurry2119 Blackpill on my brain is that it relentlessly processes noise looking for faint patterns. It’s exhausting.
  88. Aug 10, 2022Twitter · reply@colleagula @shauseth Yes! Do me! Do me!
  89. Aug 10, 2022Twitter · postSince EA is Current Thing, I’ll add my take- which is that they have *terrible* vibes. Maoist Struggle Session vibes. Which I can’t endorse, much as I sympathize with many of their objectives (like, Peter Singer vegan here…)

  96. Aug 10, 2022Twitter · reply@rickyflows @zkEnrique7 Ha thanks, I need a vacation and a rethink… I like my team of baby devs but recent clients have really sucked. Maybe I’m just bad at being assertive when no Irl rapport?
  97. Aug 10, 2022Twitter · reply@rickyflows @zkEnrique7 lol I’m just wrapping up a small react project that has kinda sucked… mostly blame unpleasant client PM, but have spent way too much time fighting w dependencies not yet happy w react 18
