Larp as a Stoic and Write Like a Daoist
Hey beautiful people,
I am SO excited for Social Alchemy tomorrow. I sense this is the practical social skill needed to transmute Game A to Game B dynamics in a social setting. You can watch the first session here and sign up via Patreon. A.J. and I will be inviting people into the “agape seat,” attempting to artfully make art out of your socially awkward situation.
Tomorrow’s events:
Collective Journaling. Daily @ 8:00 AM ET. Patreon event. 90 mins.
Social Alchemy: Transmuting Social Awkwardness into Social Art w/ Peter Limberg and A.J. Bond. January 19th, 26th, and February 2nd @ 6:30 PM ET. Patreon event. 90 mins.

Wisdom cannot be defined, only sensed.
The sense of wisdom unifies polarities.
Wisdom has its own polar opposite: foolishness.
Foolishness is the conviction that one pole has the whole truth.
Wisdom is the only thing that sees its own polarity.
Wisdom is foolish enough to think it can be unified.
Becoming wise appears foolish to those who are fools.
Becoming wise feels foolish, as one’s foolishness becomes revealed to themself.
Becoming wise is foolish; only one who knows they are a fool would pursue wisdom.
Sagacity - the full embodiment of wisdom - is not possible for one person to achieve.
Anyone who believes they can become a sage without others is a fool.
Once you become wise enough to know you are a fool, we will have a chance at wisdom.
