So my dad got me The Daily Stoic for Christmas this year. We have had a shit relationship for a long time and he recently got into therapy (which is good). I just feel like this thing is mindfulness for bros. Most of that is probably me knowing of modern stoicism (or grifters making a buck saying they’re stoic) seeming to be red pill or day trader bros. I’ve made it to day 4 and I can’t stand it anymore. This is the most basic 3Cs of recovery stufd and basic mindfulness. Also I might have looked to Google to justify my options that it’s just a toxic male / bro coping mechanism, but this seems like a fucking grift for shitty people who are trying to be better but still aren’t down/get it.
I already learned all of this Jinkx Monsoon
P.S. I haven’t come out to that side of the family yet as genderqueer and my dad and grandpa kept making jokes that pissed me off. Possibly some misplaced anger
TIL I’m a master of stoicism.
