Felt this article was smooth and easy, first article ive read, but my uninformed and unsolicited opinion:

-Watch re-watch Anime: Claymore

-Challenges: code, project management, philosophy, or other real-life experience based questions

-Reading: other forms of philosophical exploration, like Warhammer and teaching psychology

-Quote: find a single quote or make one, from all your readings/anime. Like Meditations. Include your patented style of including an anime screenshot that relates.

-Bonus: Beep actually writing a part of the newsletter on the keyboard as he attempts to communicate.

ty team tina, helpful content, realness, and needed bump to get me back on the self improvement wagon.

So many books 😲 thank you! Also hope you enjoyed some well deserved chill time 😎

About your query on why some phenomena are female and I’m no expert by any means just something I watched on a YouTube video that made some sense. Your thought wasn’t far off the mark with the idea of birth which is impressive. I’ll link the video so you can watch it if you’re interested since I don’t fully understand it yet, but it might serve you in your pursuit. Essentially, feminine gives birth to things such as the unknown, disasters and mystical beings. This is just my thought but I think the unknown encompasses disasters and mystical beings.

Disasters(natural disasters, death, illness, etc.); natural disasters caused by Mother Nature/circumstantial, death caused by Mother Nature or illnesses that were either genetic/hereditary/circumstantial hence tying back to birth or that which is feminine such as Earth or a mother which both gave birth to us.

That’s about as much as I can think before my head starts to hurt LMAOOO!

Probably a philosophy major or psychology major could do it better justice lol

Def a topic worth looking further into since I think it ties back to philosophy, our origins and the universe

Hi Tina. Have you read the Ryan Holiday books? If not, they are highly recommended. Similar to you, I’ve started reading the source material; I’m slowly making my way through Marcus Aurelius atm. In terms of anime, have you watched ‘Shikimori’s not just a cutie’? The premise sounds silly but after the 1st 2 episodes, it’s become a welcome boost of heart-warming joy 😄

yep I've read a couple of his books but to me they don't feel as applicable as his videos for some reason - like more motivational.

I've had that anime pop up on front page of crunchyroll for months now lol. Okay I'll watch it! c:

Thought you did well in putting it together. I appreciate your videos and enjoyed your newsletter. I look forward to more.

Have you read much on attachment style? I feel that subject area would go well with unlearning the childhood bs. It helped me to understand why I react to people and situations the way I do. It is good Journaling and deep emotional work.

I believe you are spot on with the women's names for the mythical tragedies of disaster and such. Dudes have been hugely moronic since the beginning. I'm guessing the testosterone.

Have a great week and don't overextend yourself. Get some chill time in.
