the tautology at the center of my Non-Naive Trust Dance framework and one of the first tautologies that caused me to realize how useful tautologies can be I've often expressed it as "you can't trust what you can't trust"; same truth, words are words https://t.co/zCM80Ivblc

that one is really a whole class of tautology Healing from trauma amounts to learning that it is okay to know what you know, and feel what you feel. β€” Bessel van der Kolk ...in a sense, it must be okay, because it's so! https://t.co/0wg9qtMgNe

this isn't quite a tautology, but (for what I mean by the words) it's as true as 1+0=1, like it's sort of a definition of zero and plus https://t.co/zIFdJBibDQ

@aleksil79 no proof or argument should be necessary! if A and B are the same tautology, this will be self-evident if one looks in the right place https://t.co/rpUUtfE66L
