MFs looked at SBF and thought, yeah, more of that thanks.

Who do we have to bribe to just have a pitfall trap in place of whatever it is they’re trying to build?

double check that your rubbers didn’t get punctured.

Extra wrinkly*, for your partner’s pleasure

I’m like 40% sure you’ve replied to the wrong comment but in case you didn’t:

“used to be” I mean that part tracks at least

dawg if I have to grok rat doublespeak I might just double plus unalive

Yeah, that's where I'm at. I don't think this is Yud doing HPMOR and trying to rope randos into rationality. Well, maybe he's trying to rope the non-rat glowfic enjoyers, idk. In any case, this is Yud playing with a pal and having fun, I guess? Take that as you will.

Pleasure Island, from Pinocchio. You gotta ask for the pony pass though, or else you’re just gonna get turned into a donkey. To reverse the transformation you gotta go to the island of Dr. Moreau.

This is cringe. Reframing trauma is normal therapy stuff, but if you’ve internalised a trauma and it presents as behavioural patterns, it’s probably a lot more complicated than X happened, Y was the result. Thinking that it is that simple is probably going to hinder your unpacking of trauma. In other words, if you are able to effectively break it down to just variables and simple causal statements, you probably have done the prerequisite work, and aren’t going to find this advice useful.
