Reasons to poast?

I haven’t written here in a while, and think it might be good to post again. Posting for me has been mostly a form of me brain dumping whatever happened to be on my mind. It was deeply personal. But most people have their own things they’re thinking about. Whatever it was that they were thinking about, it wasn’t whatever I was writing about. And I also suspect that if I kept posting, people would keep reading.

I sort of thought of writing on here as an imposition on potential readers. I was right to think that because I was stuck in my head with my own problems. I was looking for solutions in places and in ways that were unique to me. Surprisingly, I got some readership. On X, I even got the Nietzsche of our time (Nick Land) to follow me. This was very meaningful to me given where I was in life. I badly needed some wins.

When someone (myself) talks of a problem in the world, it’s because they suffering from it themselves. If someone says the world is falling apart, it’s because their world is falling apart. For obvious reasons, people don’t want to admit to having problems. If it was your world, maybe you don’t know who to trust, so why tell them you’re vulnerable? The chinks in your armor will get taken advantage of.

Good and evil can sometimes be confused for one another. Imagine you’re on a date. You glance at your phone, then place it face down on the table. If your date just came out of a relationship where she was cheated on, she’ll take it as a red flag. She’s trying to protect herself. But what if you put if face down to avoid getting distracted by notifications? Now suppose she sees that as a major red flag and you don’t see her again. And it’s because of that.

I might try to post about the same topics again, but this time from a place that is willing to allow the outside in. I’m less compelled to write, so maybe that means I should?
