Footy on the TV, glass of wine, spent a lot of today reading blog posts. Day started at nearly 300 unread, halved it. Some angst bout the ‘unlecture’ and so on. Let’s see, model I, defensive responses, unwilling to revisit ‘governing variables’? Familiar ring to it. When we’re challenged, made uncomfortable, our mental map, and our reptilian brain, responds with fight or flight. Fight is to not wonder why but to decide it’s broken. Flight is to run away (i.e. not come). Either is a small way to respond where while you think you’re asserting agency it is in fact the instinctual opposite.
