Yeah, emotional intelligence is hugely overlooked, too, when interpreting what others say, and to also not be swept up by every little thing, and that low eq breeds for resentment, which is rife for the brainwashing that propaganda is. We all need to be focusing on teaching the next Gen how to step outside their emotions, as an observer, and reflect on the message they are for oneself, not a cue for how to treat others, or define oneself by, and to look inside and heal, or self care, if those emotional messages are extreme. That’s your own little tamagotchi to care for. It’s not even iq, it’s eq (and eq can always be built as high as you want to go) , and the world would be a different place. It’s easy not to care, when you feel like you have been thrown out with the trash, and knee jerk to all your emotions, rather than be an entity that observes your emotions.

ETA, added words, because distraction.

Not to down Tibetan throat singing, because that shit is awesome, no shade to my girl, either, because she said she listen to all types, she didn’t say she liking all types. She hasn’t left the table!!

I completely agree, it’s entirely fascinating, if you have time to converse with someone about the culture of the specific areas of where you live, that would make for brilliant conversation. It’s just that people won’t know the culture, without that conversation, so they might know some of the names of the cities and states, but they wouldn’t know what the people are, generally like, in those areas. If you’re talking with someone who is more familiar, they would understand you’re communicating your beliefs and culture, but anyone outside that lived knowledge, doesn’t understand that, if you mention you’re from a certain place, that means you align with certain beliefs. Although I can certainly understand still leading with that, and maybe more people will get a feel for it, the more you explain and get chances to have those conversations.

Aww, Needs some of that proprioceptive sensory stimulation, but never had the supports to help him find healthy ways to do it. Poor buddy.

You understand differentiation for demographics in certain areas, but no one else does, it just confuses people abroad when you talk about what city you’re from. Like if I started talking about Melbournites, vs sydnesiders you wouldn’t be able to chime in on the conversation.

And sue for costs, from the manufacturers, if plastic is too expensive, they’ll stop using it, if they had to pay the environmental costs, it would become too expensive.

You can hold space for both, and both can be true at the same time and not invalidate each other. Optimism is a hugely important quality, it’s focusing on moving forward and seeing the glass half full, and it keeps the darkness out. Pointing out problems is just troubleshooting, and finding ways to be better, that might seem like focusing on the glass half empty, but what if it’s just focusing on achieving a better half full, glass. The important thing is to hold onto what keeps you afloat, especially right now. This is awesome news, whether it needs more work or not.

I have heaps of my own classics, that I regularly rewatch. More recently, though, has anyone seen Kevin can fk himself, holy crap that was perfect. Short but written to be short, and ties up perfectly. There was just a harmony to it. I was yelling at the telly, I know they’re good when I start yelling at the telly.

Yeah, I watched him speak on the subject, in a similar clip, he ends up screaming about the atrocities being done and how truly awful it is.

He’s even promoting shooting people who try to take your rights away.

I heard this thing that humans are tribal creatures and in any group, family, friend etc, they will invariably develop their own language, and they didn’t mention it but generationally specify slang is so much more beautiful when viewed through that lens. So even if it’s an old person thing, for those of us privileged to be able to stay on this earth that long, it will still be your tribes language and you will feel at home saying it. And that’s all that matters.
