Subversive Reality w Mike Ross

Do your ideas belong to you—or are they secretly running the show? If identities can calcify into cages, how do you melt them back into something alive? In this episode, we talk with therapist and writer Mike Ross about the weird life of ideas: how they form, how they spread, and how they quietly start making decisions for us. We go from punk rock and tattoos to liminal spaces, Robin Williams, Gen Alpha chaos (“67”), emotional granularity, and Mike’s concept of cognitive alchemy—naming and reshaping the stories and feelings that shape us. If you’ve ever felt lonely online, stuck in your own head, or hungry for something more real than the feed, this one’s for you. ⸻ Key Topics The weird life of ideas: when thoughts become “drivers,” not visitors How identities calcify (and what it takes to loosen them) Why the early Internet felt like salvation—and the modern feed feels like a beige matrix What we lose when algorithms replace serendipity Liminal spaces and why they mess with us (in a good way, sometimes) Tattoos, punk rock, and identity as signal Robin Williams, grief, and the stories we inherit Gen Alpha chaos and the mysterious “67” energy Emotional granularity: getting specific about what you’re feeling “Cognitive alchemy”: turning stuck inner material into something usable ⸻ Resources + Links   / lordofthestrange   https://lordofthestrange.substack.com/ ⸻ Want To Support MAD?
