What if the more precisely you name the fight, the harder it becomes to let go?
Lloyd enters Chapter 2 determined to practice wu wei—effortless action—only to discover how difficult non-reactivity becomes when the algorithm keeps lighting up his phone with ICE hiring sprees and panic-bait alerts. This episode blends Taoist philosophy, political commentary, and Gen-X nervous system management into a meditation on control, naming, and the subtle ways outrage monetizes cortisol. Taoism, tech culture, and low-grade panic—now in one inconvenient episode.
