        Nonsense. If a smart person rarely speaks it means they're not asking questions or exploring new things; so they may have been smart last week, but the person who isn't afraid to speak and be proven wrong will be smarter than them this week, for having carried on gaining experience where the false-smartie stopped gaining experience under the belief that they knew all there was to know. Stagnancy.

          Saw a 15 minute insta rant of her where she cried a lot and told her story of moving to Cali for modelling but then having breakdowns and moving back to nowhere and being a waiter for 15 bucks an hour. It's amazing how some people can't handle the easy mode life. I suppose psychological breakdown really is a sickness. Imagine being a sporty big tiddy redhead and not getting anything done in life

Obviously, you are not some medieval courtier, but you think abstractly of the laws and how they can somewhat apply to a situation.

      This only works if you don't follow the logic to realize that your life is dictated by the social structures of the objectively worthless and then have to think about how best to ingratiate yourself to others that have overinflated opinions of themselves to avoid being ostracized

    You can't escape from the need for recognition, selfhood and identity is actualised in the recognition of others, you correctly desire recognition because recognition is how selfhood is realised. Don't make the mistake of ignoring or denying this instinct.

      • 2 years ago
        Anonymous

        The mirror doesn't have a mind to cognise you, so you can't re-cognise it, nor it re-cognise you cognising it. Your "I" must form itself by the encounter with the "not-I" of the external world, and then realise itself as an "I" first through the establishment of the "I-ness" of other people amongst the "not-I", and then having the other "I(s)" within society acknowledging your "I-ness".

            I just want to stop always waiting for external validation for doing things, stop caring too much about other people's constant validation, a friend of mine actually gave me that advice and told me to stop searching for approval so much.
