I guess Mr. Crowley never had to buy food, and thought he was so important he could spout BS and folks would swallow it.

When I was 21-24 I set up a permaculuture/fukuoka/ruth stout styled vegetable garden, he might have done something similar. The property ended up getting sold so my folks could build a new house, the new property was not accomadating to a vegetable garden. I had never felt more ripped off in my life.

There are too many distractions in this life for quality of thought and it’s quality of thought, not quantity, that counts.” –Nikola Tesla

I can personally get behind the nuanced understanding of that.
No wait, this is unabashedly the truth ever since 1984 and any other perspective will be annihilated.
Sorry couple drinks in working no thinking no acting maybe doing ok - on impulse. In summary: i approve.

Many dysfunctional parents react contemptuously to a baby or toddler’s plaintive call for connection and attachment. Contempt is extremely traumatizing to a child, and at best, extremely noxious to an adult. Contempt is a toxic cocktail of verbal and emotional abuse, a deadly amalgam of denigration, rage and disgust. Rage creates fear, and disgust creates shame in the child in a way that soon teaches her to refrain from crying out, from ever asking for attention. Before long, the child gives up on seeking any kind of help or connection at all. The child’s bid for bonding and acceptance is thwarted, and she is left to suffer in the frightened despair of abandonment. Particularly abusive parents deepen the abandonment trauma by linking corporal punishment with contempt. Slaveholders and prison guards typically use contempt and scorn to destroy their victims’ self-esteem. Slaves, prisoners, and children, who are made to feel worthless and powerless devolve into learned helplessness and can be controlled with far less energy and attention.

To expect too much is to have a sentimental view of life, and this is a softness that ends in bitterness.
