  1. Past hour
  2. How is that relevant to what I just wrote there?
  3. @VioletFlame Hey, your story is very inspiring, thanks for sharing 💙🙏🏻 I'll ask you couple things, since you have a massive experience in dealing with trauma. I wasn't so explicitly traumatized in the childhood, but I sense that I have some behavioral tendencies for example towards some addictions, or for isolation, for emotional avoidance, not expressing myself fully, etc. Some of those might be rooted in some experiences that I had, but I can't fully connect the dots. In your experience, after all those practices you list above, did you also connect some dots that you weren't aware of, or were all your trauma and hardships linked to that major experience of abuse you had from your brother? This year I started working on some theraputic practices. Going to therapy didn't work, it was a waste of time for me, I did couple holotropic breathwork sessions and I plan to continue weekly and now I'm learning TRE (Trauma Release Exercises), also I'm gaining some momentum in my meditation and yogic practice. I'll dive deeper and deeper as months go by, hopefully some things will pop up and I'll understand reasonings behind my own structures better. Lastly, how do you think, if you didn't experience the abuse you describe, how would your life unfold? What would you do differently? In what ways would you be different than you are now?
  4. Yes, and this is included in that right, how do you know what you just wrote is true or not? Given that context nobody means nobody, means all, no exception. Unless you wanna change the meaning of words lol.
  5. If you pay me, I'll generate a whole 1 hour verson for you lmfao
  6. No. You can utter statements without knowing whether the given uttered proposition is true or not and without being justified. You can accidently utter true statements without knowing that the statement is true. And the other issue with that kind of move is that no one needs to utter the statement in the firstplace. You can just take the propositon and check whether you can derive a contradiction from it , if taken to be true and you can't. You can only do that if you add a bunch of things to it - that someone utters the statement and that person knows that that particular statement is true.
  7. You next sentence still mean nobody knows shit. Everbody is just exchanging their opinions as far as you're concerned.
  8. WBTB reduces my sleep time, therefore I decided to watch movies instead. My recently watched: Abstraction (2024) https://youtu.be/aApRbX5aaHw https://www.imdb.com/title/tt36757873 Lucid State (2025) https://youtu.be/0qgSIGAhPyM https://www.imdb.com/title/tt39306292
  9. Seriously? That's what you focus on?🤣🤣🤣 What about context, my next sentence: Ignoring that for what reason? I even pointed that out a second time in another post lol
  10. An excellent summation
  11. How can "NOBODY TRULY KNOWS WTF HE/SHE IS TALKING ABOUT." not be a liar paradox? It is literally the same thing. And also, how can you not derive a contradiction from this? It is a contradiction precisely because its a liar paradox. You cannot remove the person talking about it and at the same time say "Nobody". The person talking must be included in the "nobody" and therefore it is a liar paradox.
  12. Like you said the universe trolls you like that sometimes. The interactions are not meant to last.
  13. @thierry My guess is she just knows she’s going back to real life. And she’s not wanting to get more invested now that vacation is over. It doesn’t sound like anything specifically wrong you did.
  14. Yeah, i could be wrong, but i think he even had this one practice, where if someone did something hurtful to you, you would then say to them: im sorry for the hurt i caused you. Dude took it to the extreme lol.
  15. People who are comfortable and still in survival mode, Always looking for boogeymen.
  16. No, thats fair that you interpreted in a different way. The reason why I pushed back is because its different from the liar paradox in that you cant derive a contradiction from the claim , but when it comes to the liar's paradox - you can derive a contradiction. And if you take contradictions to be unintelligible ( in the sense that they cant be true), then you wont have the same issue in this specific case, because there isn't any trivial contradiciton that can be derived from that statement.
  17. Summary: Drop all external ideals and end self-judgement. Replace ideals with inherent authenticity. For that, learn about your neurodivergency. Stop thinking self-judgement increases survival Stop mistaking self-judgement for skepticism
  18. @Judy2 I would really love for you to read this 🌹
  19. Actually, this is only true as a guilt trip for people with Y chromosomes. If you try to be loving everyone just calls you a people pleasing codependent pussy. But if you don’t, everyone will make you feel bad for not being more loving. As long as you feel bad.
  20. There is no point in us discussing this anymore if you aren't capable of giving a mature response to that last point, it shows that you are not capable of the self-awareness required for a healthy debate. I feel I have given my best effort to be fair and open to your POV. All I can say is good luck, and I wish you the best.
  21. Today
  22. There is a lot of talk about how 'men chase power to satisfy their egos'. There is little to no credit given for the point of doing so. It's to provide and protect for the family. But, feminism sees the man only as an oppressor, whose ultimate aim is to oppress women. You talk about the distinction between the 'patriarchy' and 'men'. The system of rules that men consider 'fair' are agreed upon by a sizeable majority of men. There is a mutual respect between men even if on an unequal playing-field, just in principle. So, when they talk about 'patriarchy', this does refer to men. Look, if you have a family, your primary commitment is to the family. And, feminism has a fundamental issue with this. Ever since Gloria Steinem wrote her book denouncing the life of a mother. You can't ignore these realities. I have the perfect question to ask them related to this. 'Who hurt you?'!
  23. Thank you for the reminder, Lila! This one's already on my list.
  24. Now link a retarded atheist. I'll link a non-retarded Christian: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupert_Sheldrake
  25. Thank you for sharing ✨
  26. Most religious people have such a sad relationship with sexuality
  27. The entire family will be together in mornings, evenings, weekends and some weekdays depending on work patterns. It's common for parents to work part time while raising a kid so they get to spend more time together. That's plenty of time to raise a healthy child and create a healthy family dynamic. It’s actually pretty rare for people to say positive things about the other gender as a whole. Humans tend to praise individuals close to them and criticise groups that feel more distant. That’s just how our brains are wired. It’s also convenient to talk about patterns within a group by referring to the whole group, without literally meaning every individual in it. In that sense, something similar might be happening here. You’re treating feminists as a single like-minded group rather than a large collection of individuals with different views. There’s a lot of nuance within feminism, just as there is within men as a group. It might also be worth asking why feminism is such an appealing message to so many women in the first place, even if you ultimately disagree with parts of it. You don't have to change your mind, but creating a steelman of the opposing point of view can be a good way to open your mind and expand your own point of view.
