How Language Can Land
Please Don't Take Me Seriously
I don’t care about how old we are! I just meant, in this post, to make something a little but more resonant out of the headline than: “Announcing Zoom Call Soon.” I have a “thing” about headlines. When the war is over I want many major Substack hero MD people fined for unbelievably dull headline composition. I want to open a headline school.
As I was posting about the Zoom return, the iconic Townshend line popped into my head. “Let’s get together before we get much older.”
And now I want to change the headline! (I did.)
It’s a professional hazard from the years at SPIN, when our jobs depended on coming up with zinger headlines and “deks” (sub headlines) for articles.
My former colleague Dean Kuipers caused roars at an editorial meeting (an ancient ritual from the days of print magazines) when he suggested a cover-line for his Jane’s Addiction article:
“Jane’s Addiction: Shooting Up The Charts.”
That was a perfect cover-line!
(Imagine what a vaccine loving MK Ultra victim Perry Farrell turned out to be. Imagine all that fake rebellion. All those trees.)
You can hear the “let’s get together” line, if you are curious, at the 2:48 mark:

It's a who's-who of human development, so hold on tight for a ride through abstract thought..
Check out 'Language', 'Memes', 'Chuang Tzu's Chaos Linguistics', and, of course Terence 'the-world-is-made-of-language' McKenna for some great reads.

Hysterical Paralysis & The Neurosis of Misdirection ...
Early in this chapter Dr. Angyal speaks of the weakness
which results from lack of conceptual clarity concerning
what is to be encouraged and fostered. Here the idea
of the "real self" emerges in functional terms - as a
development consistent "with the principle of confident
self-acceptance that governs the basic system of health".
He continues:
The healthy pattern must be sought and uncovered, not
within the pseudo-normal surface personality where its
vestiges serve merely to disguise the neurotic assumptions,
but within the depth of neurosis itself. Only when
the destructive and self-destructive attitudes ... can
themselves be shown to be distortions of healthy trends
is contact with the real self established; one gets to
it by going through the neurotic attitudes, not around
them. Tracing manifest disturbances to the unacceptable
motives generated within the neurotic framework takes
one only halfway toward understanding them. This
partial understanding fills the person with shame and
guilt, which in themselves are not conducive to change.
Real understanding traces the neurotic manifestation
all the way back to its healthy sources.
When the neurosis is discovered to be an approximation, or a
twisted version of health, the patient's outlook becomes hopeful.

When we start to focus on the main metric: Accountability ...
"When the neurosis is discovered to be an approximation, or a
twisted version of health, the patient's outlook becomes hopeful."
"Accountability breeds response-ability."
