We need to talk more about what it’s like to be a person who spends years healing & recovering & then live in a world where other people want to benefit from your work, but not do their own. It’s hard to toe the line between loneliness & exhaustion because you chose to heal.

My daughter just told me to "stop acting like you fear the sun" - I don't know what this means but it feels like a crazy proverb

We should collect proverbs from children, seems like a cool art project - there does seem to be a deep wisdom within them that's inaccessible to us

And, this is the same stance I have on therapy/self work across the board: it truly only works if you are desperate to change.

(Otherwise the plethora of unconscious forces fighting to keep you where you are will win out).

You have to be hungry.

Some differences between male & female university professors in America.

“71% of men reported that protecting free speech is more important than promoting an inclusive society; 59% of women said promoting an inclusive society is more important than protecting free speech.

56% of men said that colleges should not protect students from offensive ideas; 64% of women said that they should.

51% of men said colleges should not disinvite speakers if students threaten violent protest; 67% of women said they should.

58% of men opposed a confidential reporting system at colleges which students could use to report offensive comments; 54% of women supported it.

63% of men thought controversial news stories in student papers should not need administrators’ approval before publication; 51% of women thought they should.

65% of men believed that supporting the right to make an argument is not the same as endorsing it; 51% of women disagreed.

66–76% of men support intellectually foundational texts above diversity quotas on reading lists; 44–66% of women support diversity quotas above foundational texts.

Female academics report a greater willingness than their male counterparts to support dismissal campaigns against a colleague who has conducted research that reached a controversial conclusion.

58% of men said it is never acceptable to shout down speakers or to try to prevent them from delivering their remarks; 58% of women said it was sometimes or always acceptable.

Put simply; men are relatively more interested in advancing what is empirically correct, and women are relatively more interested in advancing what is morally desirable.” — @ImHardcory

The greatest freedom is the ability to interpret any part of reality however you’d like, including the freedom to not interpret it at all.
