@Lhikevikk @LazlosGhost Kinda love this. I wonder if Batman could, in good faith, be an existential hero in this framework. With the masters of suspicion set up as villains, it’s hard not to view Bruce as problematically conservative, even authoritarian. But I guess that tension is Batman’s whole thing.
@Luke_Posting@halonease @adamkotsko Like, in order to take in new thoughts, you kind of have to be able to stop and say to yourself, “I’m going to put my own thoughts on this shelf in my brain for a moment. I’m going to read this book, and the thoughts will be here when I get back and it will be okay.”
@Luke_Posting@halonease @adamkotsko I used to deal with that a lot, too. I think there is something inherent in reading someone else’s thoughts that requires a certain level of mindfulness. It’s hard to approach a book with a clean, open mind if you’re on the verge of a panic attack, which needs self-compassion.
@TylerHuckabee@DrSprankle@GailSimone One time when I was a kid an evangelical person prayed for me and tried to break a generational curse caused by D&D lol
@SnapdragonSynd@Alex_Autistic@christapeterso Not arguing but genuinely wondering… doesn’t that argument make at least a little bit of sense? Like… wouldn’t being curled up in a ball and then blasting through a birth canal kinda mess you up a little? 🤷🏼♂️
@DumbApe69420@atubini @RottenInDenmark Wasn’t practical guidance a huge part of the book? I felt that How To Change Your Mind took very seriously relative brain mechanics & who might or might not benefit from the drugs, set & setting, etc., fraught history of the 60’s and the more serious indigenous roots of the drugs
