Change Nomad Sculpt to This App. Gotta be as ambiguous as possible!

It's worth a watch. I almost included a section on IFS when writing about "the subconscious" at yourinductionsucks.fyi/guides/the-s.... It's the same sort of reification of parts.

Phrasing! Are we still doing phrasing?

Leaving this here for anyone that wants a plain-language explanation of how IFS has a high likelihood of creating a mess.

TFW when you join in the middle of a group drop, you fart and the hypnotist immediately pauses, and you need to double check that you were muted and didn't just off-gas an unwelcome fractionation.

Nah - good actors already know the right thing to do. Bad actors don’t care. It’s still important to set expectations for subs listening in though.

The Truth About IFS, the Therapy That Can Break You Internal Family Systems is a widely popular trauma treatment. Some patients say it’s destroyed their lives.

Parts work in mainstream publishing. It has been frustrating to see the naive and uncritical adoption of these modalities despite people urging caution for decades now:

Disentangling the consent talk in formal structure and in practice is so hard. x.x I really don’t have a pulse on what people actually do or expect. IMO the important bit is less about the structure and more encouraging the culture to expect negotiation.

Awful pickup line:

Hey - I lost my erection. Can you help me find it?

*slams hands flat down on the desk* Look doc, the lady asked for a placebo, just give her the damn placebo!

Re - previous. I totally misread the headline. Shareholders are offering to take it private.

Grindr shareholders offer to take dating app private for $3.46 billion Shares of the company closed up nearly 19% on Friday.

Headline: Grindr goes public for 3.46b

I always forget how popular plain vanilla is

I'd like that 🧡 thanks

"Your hidden observer will keep you safe."

A misunderstanding of an antiquated theory and bad advice, rolled up in one.

In this weird spot where I feel I have AYCE social opportunities online and on VRC, in contrast to objectively sucking at making local stable connections, or even getting myself out the door.

Discriminating internal perception from reality: (long, neuroscience, slightly newer research hints at an area that monitors intensity to predict realness)

Dr Reshanne Reeder and Nadine Dijkstra have done research on the neuroscience of internal visual imagery. Ill drop a few links (no pressure, just for entertainment.)

Ill dig up the test for it, but internal visual experience happens on a full gradient for different folks. EG - someone could be aphantasic (no internal visual representation, rare) to prophantasic (photorealistic, sometimes able to project images internally.)

Ah yeah! This is in my domain of knowledge. The folk terminology is that you’d have a kinesthetic modality. These often don’t universally apply - you likely be able to recall someone’s voice, or the smell of cookies.

Hey - this is really good and I got some ideas from it <3 thank you!

Hi everyone! I'm making this Patreon essay PUBLIC/FREE because I think it could do much more good without a paywall.

"PROGRESSIVE RELAXATION (THAT DOESNT SUCK)"

PMRs can be exciting + relaxation isn't necessary but is USEFUL for hypnosis!

Hell yeah :D I'll save the puns but I'm rooting for ya!

Disclaimer: I'm a nerd and don't want to tell anyone what to do. There just might be more potential on the table.

FWIW - the study was pretty rough, but it was about 0.125" a week on average, over the course of three months, one session a week. The study was pretty low quality but if you're going for it, might as well see what ya can get out of another two months!

Ah hey! @blakecollie.bsky.social the photos ya take are fine!
