too lazy to copy paste what i just tweeted on twitter so instead i'm writing this to complain. bsky posters i do not know how to solve this problem - i ain't leaving twitter any time soon, and i always run out of steam to keep crossposting. feels doomed

still thinking about this

delighted to share that i got to have a hot makeout sesh tonight and contact improv has in fact made me better at it +

i don't think it's possible to have "wanting to awaken" as a genuine embodied desire. i think the real motivations that are capable of getting there are more immediate and tangible, like "i need to know the root of suffering" or "i need to know the nature of mind/reality" +

i am of the nature to age; i have not gone beyond aging i am of the nature to sicken; i have not gone beyond sickness i am of the nature to die; i have not gone beyond dying all that is mine, beloved and pleasing, will become otherwise, will become separated from me

who up needlessly identifying with the 5 skandhas rn

what's the protocol if i want to QT a baddy from twitter. can i just screenshot it or do we have to pretend like that place doesn't exist when we're over here @chercher.ai

once in a while, someone who has a favorable opinion of me is surprised when i tell them i'm not a stream-enterer πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ yes i'm a bit meditation-obsessed. yes i've been to stupid-long silent retreats. no i'm not awake. we exist
