I think it was a foregone conclusion based on the premise and topic being undefined. Either the topic needed to be concrete or a moderator was always going to be needed to check and resteer.

I am imagining self abuse. "peer reviewed" - by the comments section

This is a really good distinction.

Seconded!

@Lyubov Thanks for reporting back I've experienced similar effects where the dopamine cycle cross pollinates other activities. The more time I spend focused on a single assignment that isn't triggering a charged emotional reaction, the higher my quality of awareness is transplanted onto other tasks.

I'm 2/3 of the way through Nonviolent Communication by Marshall Rosenberg. Highly recommend. It has triggered some huge insights for me. The book is not what it seems. Reading this one as there are some small tasks you probably wouldn't be able to properly engage with if this were consumed as an audiobook. Possible, but much easier to circle and note.

I had to stop listening - will check it later if it is available for rewatch!

It better be good, or I'll be injecting abuse and more (avoidable) bias into my moderation! 😈

You guys need a live moderator to keep you on track!

Will do - FUCK. STOP THIS. You LURE ME

It may have been the subreddit I was on. I haven't been back to test it out - I was honestly so revolted over being censored for (what I felt was) benign, honest feedback!

I enjoyed the second half a lot too. It was a great connection. The power of the mind. That's all you need to know. I often feel the need to self check on these topics. Glad got enjoyed it

Oh gosh we bringing the s-word into it. Chuck all the concept in the shredder, make sure it's oiled and ready to go full throttle

Nonviolent Communication is next on my book list. The title always made me pass on it due to my own misinterpretation. Someone I highly respect recommended it. Regarding the OP. Unfortunately I need to read a book to take it in fully. When listening to audiobooks, I tend to be "optimising" my time and dual-tasking. This degrades the quality of my attention. I thought women were supposed to be able to multi-task. Fucking lies! 😅 I can barely chew gum and walk at the same time ! With audiobooks, I need to listen over multiple times to feel I have absorbed all the points. Books I tend to retain after one reading. One reading, sitting breaks + notes for heavy hitters like Ralston. I feel this could be very individual though; I've always been an avid reader of long novels. Nonficton. Fiction. Biographies. Since I was 8 or 9 years old. I never stopped.

Thanks for sharing. I read some measure of restlessness and avoidance of emotion here. But I could be wrong. Very difficult to be in touch with purpose in such cases. I've been there. What makes you most excited? When you do feel energized and eagerly anticipate something in life that does not have any association with women? What are those moments like?
