@thesublemon Classic @olivertraldi essay incoming: https://t.co/0w9DNbP667

A related thought I have been having is that I think there's a sense in which orientation around what is Good can slip away as knowledge of what you Want does.

@thesublemon The waves of us putting ourselves out there, feeling anxiety, and then days afterwards rushing with creativity might be misconstrued as coming from youth, when they come from the anxiety, the improv class, the social event, etc.

Here’s some wisdom for you:

If you see something and it has a pump in it, it will break.

If you think something likely has a pump inside it, think about how you'd take it apart and put it back together, and whether that'd even be possible.

Pumps are liabilities.

@prathyvsh It's true, but my perspective is that in almost all cases, as soon as I have put my thoughts into words it becomes much harder to chart a new path. It's as if the words are magnetic.

Agreed though that when we listen to others the words start our interpretative process.

[πous〜es @nouswaves]

Words are thought-terminating.

[Prathyush @prathyvsh]

@nouswaves They can also dually be thought-germinating, no?

So incredibly proud of my brother @sethinsua whose debut novel 'Human, Animal' will be out Feb 2025. 🐄

@sadmoonanalog Apologies if I've misspoken.

[πous〜es @nouswaves]

@sadmoonanalog Some of your tweets remind me of myself ages ago. A tendency towards "maxxing" various areas so I could feel on top of things, mostly psychological and masking my fears. I didn't yet know the big and small things that would make a difference to my life. Must be attuned or lucky.

@Malcolm02792388 @sebinsua @cjayanetti @s8mb It's cheap of you to respond and then block by the way.

[πous〜es @nouswaves]

@Malcolm02792388 @sebinsua @cjayanetti @s8mb Incorrect again. She makes £~90k not a salary of £40k. You cannot compare apples to oranges.

As you requested, I gave you my calculations and figures and the figures are sourced directly from https://t.co/Xypft4tNb8.

I'm sorry if the facts bore you.

@Malcolm02792388 @tomhfh The market rate rent of a one-bed flat in the area is £1773, but the social housing rent for a similar flat is £116.16 per week (£503.36 per month).

If you would have otherwise been paying the market rent but can get social housing rent, you will save yourself £1,269.64 a month.
