@chesscom Before I was 7, I asked dad for a Barbie - but he got me chess and checkers instead. Ended up playing with them a lot.
See, chess figures were my dolls.
The pointy figure was my favorite: not for its strategic importance but for the pointy-ness.
I’d use checkers as skirts or…
Husbands and wives call each other by their exes names, at times. Mothers often call their children each other's names.
There is something about the shared identity of a role.
Somehow, my father and my son share a same container. Not the name, but something else.
If you had three months to sniff out whether you want to settle down in a city long-term - what would you do? (Two months? One month?)
Specifically, how'd you go about quickly finding your people and places?
@crystalxduan I’be always been an easy riser.

Ppl will treasure the human connection MORE.
More ppl would go to live theater, live events, soft skills and knowing how to talk human-to-human will be more prized ‘cause you can’t AI live communication.
Evolution favors social animals
@Morphenius Saying ‘no’ to yourself seems like self-coercion but… There is a hidden pleasure in overriding your desires.
I know it from experience. Every time I choose to override a desire, I get to live life as a new person.
It’s exciting: what kind of new ppl I meet as this new person?…
*If you want to understand how performing/refining a standup comedy show works, these notes are going to be useful*:
Forgot to do a couple of jokes. I'd catch myself, 'oh no, there was a joke there', and I'd feel a sprout of panic budding inside. HOW TO FIX: remind yourself…
@Kpaxs If we see ppl around us doing XYZ behavior, due to our social nature we will likely accept it is as a norm, we won't question that behavior - just repeat.
So to change culture we just have ppl with desirable behavior infiltrate the rest?
How we disagree says a lot about us.
