this method inherently ensures that the list will never get done » not inherently? but i guess i can't say that since my todo lists are always interminable lol

want to want to do » wrote about this a little bit https://mitadmissions.org/blogs/entry/old-east-campus/#one-year-more always gotta plug my writing lol. then again we might've talked about this and i don't remember lol

emulate discrete bits and bobs of people whom I respect or care about » which also happens in a cultural level you know... again https://mitadmissions.org/blogs/entry/intricate-rituals/ to plug my own writing again lmao

versions of me expands with time » a way to think about this: there is no version of you except in the context of other people and in various situations. the versions of you don't expand, because they don't exist; you simply enter different contexts and siutations (but of course, all models are wrong, some are useful)
