Was already wearing baggy clothes since the pandemic, like you, but maybe I should also start free-balling! ;)

I really loved this btw, very clear piece. Makes me think about disembodiment being similar (the same?) as collapsed awareness really.

But I see there's also being in collapsed awareness that can be good? Like when you're in-the-moment playing sports or playing with kids or something like that.

And there's also the idea that life in general is god(s) (or however you want to call it) playing a game with their collapsed awareness, and when you "wake up" through meditation or psychedelics, you're god for a bit, in full awareness, before collapsing it again.

Waiting eagerly for your next piece!

Alex - this is awesome sir. Thanks for sharing and making sense of something that's very heady and hard to get to the bottom of, even though it's simple. I'm excited to re-read for a few weeks and hope to digest the wisdom more and more over time

This inspired me to get out into the forest for a long trail run this morning! So thank you 🙏

Love this. Personally, I find quite difficult to step out the "thinking" mind. Often it's like I'm driving with a really think windshield, when I'd much rather have the wind blasting me straight in the face. Thanks for this clearly-eye take on something we all could use more of.
