your developmental inheritance is on the other side of your cringe. leave the tribal boundaries and discover a much larger family ready to embrace you https://t.co/5AtV4FHnFa

aligning with tribal expectations is good! it proves you're trustworthy (I will make X compromise in return for Y social benefits) but you're even more trustworthy if you can prove you know when to deviate from tribal norms
