way of acting

For Tamayo, the K-pop aesthetic helped influence a personal style where he mixes his own choreography and a way of acting that helps reinforce a key message: Love and freedom.

Earlier, he paraphrased for me some lines that he liked from Season 2 of “Westworld” that spoke to how early we still are, and how blinkered, when it comes to understanding this technology: “Sanity is a very narrow sliver of the possibilities of mind. Because we have culturally accepted norms, we have a certain way of acting and thinking and speaking, and if you deviate from that a little too much, then you’re, at best, weird, and at worst, clinically insane.”

The text began: “Permit yourself to drift from what you are reading at this very moment into another situation, another way of acting within the historical and psychic geographies in which the event of your own reading is here and now taking place.”

Maybe this giving-you-money-then-complaining-about-it thing is her way of acting out her discomfort.

They say that if elected, they would not let Republicans, or even some Democrats, stand in the way of acting on an issue with wide public support.
