@AnotherPattern @RichDecibels I’ve often thought during meditation that it’s a lot like Pokémon. “A wild fear appeared! You used repression. It’s not very effective!”

[Preston @pfunkmann]

Writing the "facts" about my life is easy, and when I recall the events of my life I spontaneously think about how I thought during those times and can capture that in the moment.

[Preston @pfunkmann]

Writing my thoughts is difficult because they come and go so quickly. I only capture them when I am already sitting in front of my writing and the thought arises. To get around this I am going to write my autobiography and capture the thinking from each period of my life

@p_millerd might be that people who don’t work a lot default to the ways of working they know. no need to innovate unless something grates at you over and over.

[Preston @pfunkmann]

@meekaale any interest in this? https://t.co/lgEQVsduXV

@heynibras hey nibras :) i’m still doing my version of calls along the spectrum of dharma friend<->dharma mentor for free/dana.

[Preston @pfunkmann]

i already knew @Intuit is an evil company because of their their efforts lobbying to keep the tax code complex and their false advertising on turbotax but this is beyond the pale for me. get your shit together @QuickBooks

[Preston @pfunkmann]

Don’t love posts like this but @QuickBooks is terrorizing my business and after 12+ hours across five different chats/calls with their customer svc I am not sure what else to do. We were victims of a wire fraud scam which caused us to have to close one of our bank accounts…

[Preston @pfunkmann]

but they never do. instead they continue to try to debit from the closed account which triggers more fraud alerts and locks us out of our bank accounts. i am at wits end here…

[Preston @pfunkmann]

@aleksil79 the localist in me agrees but the person who loves that there are highbies who spit hot fire worries about the souls that will be lost on the margins

[Preston @pfunkmann]

what will become of tpot now that elon has thrown chum into the water?

[shadow @ascetic_shadow]

in order to overcome prophets you don’t eliminate them directly, that makes martyrs. instead you drown out their voices by providing incentives for charlatans to prophesy. once it’s a paid gig, watch as the truth becomes unrecognizable to both cynics and suckers

[Preston @pfunkmann]

improv is dialectic

[Preston @pfunkmann]

@khemaridh hobbycels 😅 for what its worth, i think that i was like this and surf actually worked for me. wrote some reflections on this. https://t.co/DXrQuMJUvt

[Preston @pfunkmann]

some thoughts on getting good at things. i started surfing about two years ago and have gotten a lot better. i often hear people who started surfing before me but aren't as proficient at it remark on how good i've gotten always with a sense that they wish...

[Preston @pfunkmann]

@heynibras Happy Birthday! 1. Yes. Through pleasant interesting interactions. 2. Enjoy the ride and take it easy on yourself, you don’t have to figure it out all at once.
