2026-01-0537 minSubstratum 611Nice People Aren't Kind and Honesty Without Kindness Is Brutality (4K)This one's about how being kind and being nice aren't the same thing. Nice is the person who sees you with a flat tire, says "aw that sucks," and keeps driving. Kind is the person who pulls over and helps you fix it, even if they're grumpy about it. There's some old letters from John Adams and Benjamin Franklin about sincerity and truth-telling. Default to kindness first, because doing the thing matters more than sounding pleasant while doing nothing.________________Website: https://www.substratum611.comShop Substratum 611: https://shop.substratum611.comSocial Media Links: https://www.substratum611...

A couple references to studies on tone of voice, then gets into how guys tend to offer logical fixes for emotional problems while women often do the opposite — and why that creates friction. When someone's being vulnerable with you, don't rush to fix it.

Key topics include understanding anxiety as not inherently negative, how unresolved emotions accumulate over time, the importance of dating yourself before seeking relationships, using grounding techniques to stay present, and recognizing that healing requires accountability and doing the work rather than seeking quick fixes.
