Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
there's nothing wrong with self-esteem and in fact there's a pretty strong correlation between self-compassion and self-esteem if you're self-compassionate you all have higher self-esteem and you have less self-hate so they're linked
wow i think self-compassion is a lot more helpful than self-esteem
the healthy form of self-esteem is what they call unconditional self-esteem you feel worthy not because you're good at something that you value you feel worthy just because you're a human being an intrinsic sense of self-worth and that's the type of self-esteem that self-compassion gives you
it's self-compassion that explains stability of self-worth over time you know in other words it doesn't go up and down as much because it's less contingent on outcomes on a good day and on a bad day
