Summary of the day's rollercoaster drama since Katherine has locked and it is hard for readers to piece together

Preface: 3 days ago Katherine tweets photo in front of a rothko. The tweet goes micro-viral, leading to rothko and girl-in-front-of-object discourse— Image
Act 1: A fellow named Ivan sees above tweet and realizes he spoke to Katherine that day. He DMs her and tries to start up a conversation

She responds by trying to publicly humiliate him, in her words to cause a ‘public reckoning’ for Ivan Image
Image
Image
Act 2: The replies and QTs responding to this attack on Ivan unanimously criticize Katherine as the bad guy. Daniel tells her to delete her account

She doubles down, insulting Ivan again, and saying he is not her intellectual peer “💅💅💅” Image
Act 3: People realize Ivan is a lead researcher at Midjourney, while Katherine got a PhD from an unaccredited university and her dissertation isn’t even available to read

Turns out she was right, she is not in the same league as Ivan

This embarrassment causes her to lock

Most of us live in a bubble where all of our 'real conversations' occur in the >100 IQ range. This can really bias our view of the world. Understanding how almost half of people operate explains a lot
I've had many conversations with highly functional people that are <100 IQ, these are my observations
1. They have near-zero insight into understanding their own thinking or motivations. Indeed, they could be twirling their hair making a thinking face, and if you ask them what they are thinking they won't be able to put it into words.

The concept of TPOT, my community, has been largely misused and adopted by people that are either tpot-adjacent or actual outgroup

It is time to set the record straight--
TPOT is not centralized wherever you happen to be

The community has a memetic history, and there are known communities which are 'adjacent' to it

It is not tech twitter, or your group of friends. The word will continue to be used this way, but TPOT is a specific thing
TPOT (this part of twitter) was originally called 'TCOT' (this corner of twitter). The earliest I can see of this usage is from @Empathy2000 in May 2021 Image

The popular concept of karma, 'what goes around comes around', is a spiritually emaciated and unnecessarily woo version of the very real and very important law of Karma--
Boiled down, intention matters and actions have consequences

karma is the ethical and existential law of cause and effect. Just as physical systems have cause and effect, so do proper & improper actions.
If you key someone's car, this doesn't mean that down the road someone will key your car

Instead, when you key someone's car, someone's car was destroyed AND you have become the type of person that keys cars

The negative intention has a negative internal and external effect

You hear Costco is great. One friend describes it as a 'shopping Disney World'. You start thinking about it. You have some extra cash. You decide to try it out, you'll save that much money in gas anyway! What's the worst that can happen?--
After struggling to find parking, you finally wheel in. The greeters look you in the eye (!?) You immediately see 150 inch TVs and a fence filled with the newest sales items. 60 batteries for $15? Do you even use batteries for anything? You're tempted.
Name brands. Low prices. An industrial-size food processor $80 off. A 5 pound cooked chicken $4.99. All kinds of organic meat and produce. Tons of wine, and most of it is 7.99? What the hell is this place??

this is not funny, comedians only do this when they’re in extreme distress
She was trying to work the crowd and ask about their relationship

Him: Why are you acting like we're a couple? It's not my fault if you don't have any material

Her: It's not that well umm wow look at you. Well I can leave right now if I wanted (???)
Him: Well I can roast you too, you can't just roast all of us and get nothing back

Her: So you're afraid because I was saying you're gay

Him: I can take the mic

Her: I have plenty of material but... embarrassing for you

Any man that's dated enough knows that you can't Reject women. Rejecting a woman is the worst thing in the world you can do to a person.

But there are alternatives
I first discovered this out of desperation

I found myself going home with a woman that I decided was an Asshole. I didn't have a chance to eject in advance. I didn't know how to reject.

So as we went to bed I started opening up about my feelings.
I talked about my last relationship, and how painful it was. I talked about my insecurities. I really opened up

She just turned to me and went, "you know you could have fucked me, right?" put on her shoes and left

I was so relieved. I felt like I unearthed a superpower
