@danielbrottman let’s gooo, proud of you man that’s awesome 💕

[Benjamin Haynes @Bee_Eye_]

@WystanTBS yes I’m curious

[Guildfather @tasshinfogleman]

if U didn't already know, I have a Patreon and it is a big part of how I am able to live my life, do my work, and run The Service Guild! it currently covers ~40% of my expenses (personal necessities and Guild projects)

the generosity of others fuels my writing, podcasts, guided meditations, public events, and the creation of infrastructure to help others at scale!

if U like what i'm doing, and have the means to support, i would be so grateful to receive ur help, to be connected to U in that way!

and if for some reason, U have been meaning to join my Patreon, but haven't gotten around to it, now would be a terrific time! i'm preparing to make some major life changes and will need additional funds and support to make that possible.

i just put out a monthly Patron update, and there's a monthly community call on Zoom this weekend 🥲❤️

thank U all for ur love and support in all the ways U offer it, friends!

tasshin ❤️

the four noble truths:
1) U have a stick up ur ass
2) there are causes and conditions that led to a stick being shoved up ur ass
3) it's possible to not have a big stick in ur ass
4) there's a path from a stick being in ur ass to not having one there

May you shake your booty with all beings everywhere

May your heart finds it rhythm and your rhythm find its love

May you two-step towards awakening

May your funky chicken be full of love and wisdom (and a lil’ boogie)

Peanut butter and jelly. Sun and moon. Books and blankets. Fireflies and twilight. METTĀ and DANCE.

In this blogpost, @tasshinfogleman and I write a love letter to mettā dance parties and open source our mettā dance party SOP

You’re missing out if you don’t get this book

[anansi 🌞 @s0ulDirect0r]

Hello! Today is my 36th birthday, and I'd like to announce that I'm releasing my mystical action-adventure novel, An Infinite Heart for sale on Gumroad and Amazon Kindle! I started this project in 2019, finished the first (and only lol) draft in 2020, and then...kinda struggled to figure out what to do with it until last year when I decided that I'd just push through and edit it and put it out and find my peace with it!

Well, the day's here, it's done! It's a story about a man named Logos Mateus who begins to come into intense contact with his long suppressed feelings and is drawn into a mystical adventure of action and mystery and romance in the process.

I'll be making updates over the next few days too, for the marketing and descriptions and all that stuff that could be way better. I'm letting it out today cause...I just feel ready. Just feels like it's time!
