19 posts, ~70,000 words. Foundational for understanding how I think about everything else here.

Figuring out what is true is the hard part. Once you've got that, you can just tell people they can decide whether to swell their injuries and watch them choose differently. This sequence provides the foundations needed to navigate "psychological problems" yourself, such that "techniques" become obsolete.

Essays — Written since the foundation. They mostly stand alone, but also stand on.

Bleeding edge — Come watch me fail and flail.

Unrelated — Except sometimes it's not? I have some other stuff to write about, but sometimes the same patterns show up.

Not sure where to start?

The chronic pain transcript — if you want proof that this stuff is real.
Debugging non-automatically-resolving Raynaud's — if you want to quickly get an idea of where my bleeding edge is.
The sequence capstone — if you want to get an idea for the shape of the thing before diving in far enough for it to become actionable.

Perception of reality dissolves perception of choice; those who choose the hardest choose the most blindly.

Perception of causality is not perception of cause; perceiving the full cause is the perception that unfolds the experience of all being right.

Perception of perception as causative is causative.
