Layers of meaning and taste you will never know. Not because you can't not because you won't, then won't admit it.

Watch your back, on your toes…
Your selfish today will probably be replaced by somebody else’s selfish tomorrow

Here's why you're stuck
"Do you want to win arguments or do you want to solve problems?"
If you can't figure out why you're stuck, this is probably why. The only combo that gets you unstuck if both/all sides are trying to solve the problem. We know this as "good faith".

4 laws of happiness
Happiness comes from the progress not the result.
Getting things makes us happy, having things doesn't.
Other people aren't responsible for your happiness.
Happiness is an event, not a constant.

Overrepresentation DEI
When is too much too much?
Insert cause here. How do you know when you've made it? Or does the goal posts keep getting moved?
"I'll be happy when" ladder.
I guess I imagine one of those old sets of scales with two ends. And The closer you get to equal more neuance is needed.

Don't be fooled by words.
"Your actions speak louder"
Your words say this, but your actions speak with way more authority and they say this...
Your words don't cancel out the actions
"That's not what you're actions say, your actions say this... Are you saying words matter more than actions?"
Woke the religion
Woke is - by accident or design - religious ideology and radicalism of non religious causes. You either actually believe or you follow to fit in.
I'm uniquely positioned for this hypothesis because I've been immersed in both camps and they're the same behaviours with different lables: Demonstrating belief constantly, one upping and outdoing devotion signals, injecting core beliefs into anything and everything, never taking a break, condemning and shaming others for not being a higher standard, judging for not living up to the ideals because "when I fall short there's a powerful force stopping me, but when you fall short there's no excuse for not overcoming".
