Iam "I know I tend to engage in self flagellation but it isn't as bad for me as you think it is. I have that scar tissue build up so it doesn't really hurt. Don't beat yourself up so much."

Hym "Holy shit!"

Iam "What?"

Hym "If we had more empathy we would die! Is our lack of empathy keeping us alive!?"

Iam "I don't know..."

Hym "I probably would have killed us. What is the link between trait agreeableness and suicidality? I would imagine being high in neuroticism would have an affect on it. I was just positing this the other day. That being low in trait agreeableness ameliorates the the negative effects of being high in trait neuroticism."

Iam "You would have killed me!?"

Hym "If I could kill you without killing me I would do it. Shut up. I'm talking about me here."

Grindset

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.

“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
