Taboo “feeling bad”, keeping in mind that our normal emotional vocabulary is pretty inadequate. (E.g., it seems to me that shame is basically never useful, but guilt and sadness can be.)
I mean I feel X when I’m not being productive. And yet I do not become productive. I have no idea how to taboo qualia like “X”.
Maybe an extensional definition?: That feeling you get when you’ve done something wrong. An uncomfortable and frustruating feeling that makes you feel guilty. A bit like stress.
That’s awfully specific. I wonder how general the non-utility of it is.

Thanks for the taboo request.
