Well, it only took me going to bed but the video finally processed. I hope the Daoposter enjoys this little interaction.

Yeah, I'm actually pleasantly surprised to see so much Daoposting. Then again, the detachment that comes with posting here often is kinda like a preparation for "letting yourself float upon the river" as the Dao is often compared to.

See >>4091644 but it's far more than just philosophical statement, almost all statements about the mind or personal state of being are not descriptions or observations but rather strategic communication. Think about what statements like 'It's a good day' or 'I'm in a bad mood' actually say in terms of information, and how they are both phrased as descriptions despite their lack of content. These avowals both the speaker and audience. Apply this to things like introspection, intention, etc. to see how language is very often a tool for self-deception.
This leads into an idea he posited, that language structures thinking, and it is impossible to think outside the boundaries of one's language. There's no escaping the language game, though acquiring new languages can help broaden what one can conceive of and allow them to critically examine the language that their mind runs on so to speak.
For a short introductory lecture to Wittgenstein, and how his ideas have fared in scientific discourse, I will send you to my friend Mr. Woyde: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7D3moRTmwsk

Unironically very based. Premodern cultures recognized the unique gift of women in otherworldly insight and intuition, elevating them as oracles and priestesses. This is a common theme in the stories of female saints (Jeanne d'arc, Teresa, even Mary, etc.)
