Sounds like it's doing you harm. Not-knowing is meant to be provisional, not something you mire in indefinitely. Many here don't seem to understand the point of good epistemology. The point is to arrive at the most accurate conclusions given the data. And what's the point of arriving at conclusions? ACTION, or maybe better "Non-action" Good epistemology is a filter. What is the job of a filter? To collect clean outputs by discarding pollutants. It's meant to be a tool, not an identity. Not a badge of honor. Not something you parrot, but something you actually fucking employ. But see, this implies a terminus, an end. Thinking as an END, not a means of itself. You say it's possible you're just spinning webs of bullshit. How about you elaborate on that with the same loving detail you apply to your alien project? You don't build a detailed classification of things you think you're inventing. You're making this shit up and believing in their possibilities to a large degree. Then, at the end, you build an escape hatch. The flat-earther has done at least one thing epistemology requires. They've stuck their necks out. Perpetual one-line hedges that you could be full of shit, then not making any gains in one direction or the other isn't what good epistemology looks like. You work toward a conclusion of what is most likely, then you state your position. You falsify and weigh evidence until something gives. At least Q'Anon and flat-earthers have the balls to make falsifiable statements. "I could be wrong" disclaimers and while not updating is a tell that you're not trying to be right or wrong at all. And that's the point of these alien projects. They're pure entertainment for you and most everyone who indulges. To prove them bullshit would bring your fun time to an end. To never arrive is the point. Which is why you spend the majority of your time consuming content aimed at their truthfulness rather than content calling out the bullshit. Do you realize this is the same exact thing flat-earthers say. The same exact thing Q'Anon, astrology, ghost believers, and Scientologists say? When your best defense against a serious critic maps 1:1 to the best defense of Q'Anon and the like, that's a strong signal worth paying attention to. Aliens almost certainly exist in our universe, but your 70-80% or whatever conviction that they're visiting us on earth is an unfounded, fantastical leap. Every piece of evidence anyone has presented, when put under a critical rigorous analysis, has mundane explanations none of you can refute. Yet you all are making gigantic leaps, dismissing those analyses, and saying "I still think it's true, we just can't know", and it's all licensed by Leo, your epistemic authority, because hey, he's the most epistemically responsible human alive, right? Leo would get torn to shreds in an actual debate on this. His "high volume reporting - not everyone is full of shit", his 1930's Italy, his Navy video, all of these have very good explanations that you're all dismissing in favor of something more exciting. Typically, that's fine, but it's maximally hypocritical for this specific community.

Not to you it doesn’t. You’re not in a position to be cutting off options when you have no experience. Again you need to actually use valid resources that are tested, get feedback from people who actually have experience, focus on fundamentals that actually matter, and start trial and erroring and working out sticking points. You are not going to make any progress until you do that. And no, waving a wedding ring at women leaving and saying your wife doesn’t want you talking to them as though that would work, does not count. Stop defending what is obviously ridiculous and wasting your time smashing your head against the wall doing irrelevant nonsense then coming here and complaining about how you only get rejected and nothing works. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDf_WSzj6Rw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTeznvlpJ8E https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T2uv32oderM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwnQQ2Zm81A

Let's say you start doing cold-approach, get a couple of lays, you meet a girl and theres a connection. Should you get into a relationship, or keep focusing on approaching and building that skillset? Whats your experience?

I get the analysing of his psychology part. But i mean the guy literally bragged about being a sex trafficker as part of his Hustler's University sales copy. The dude is evil. -
If you think about it..after our basic survival needs are taken care of..food..water.. air..sleep.. shelter and taking care of our body’s basic functions..the next thing that naturally becomes important for most people is sex. There’s a simple reason for that: without reproduction..the human species wouldn’t continue. Nature made sex incredibly pleasurable because it encourages reproduction. That’s why sexual desire can feel so powerful and why it occupies such a central place in our lives. Among all natural pleasures ..sexual orgasm is considered the most intense and rewarding experiences. It creates a powerful sense of pleasure that few other natural activities like eating or exercising or socializing can match. Of course certain drugs can produce even stronger pleasure but those are artificial and are a completely different category. When it comes to understanding sexuality one book I found especially thought-provoking is “From Sex to Superconsciousness “by Osho. It’s free online . One idea that really stood out to me is that the best way to enjoy a healthy and fulfilling sex life is to stop obsessing over it. Relax. Let it happen naturally instead of constantly chasing it. When the time is right ..it will come. If you become obsessed by the pursuit of sex..then your perspective on life becomes too narrow. Sex is one of life’s most beautiful experiences.. but it’s only one of them. There are countless other meaningful and joyful and fulfilling experiences waiting to be lived as well.

It what I think they are pointing too. Conciousness is nothing to become more concious you do less awareness. Like self awareness. Your mind become nothing. It seems contradictive. When they say become more concious it means just do whatever you want without thinking or planning. -
You don’t need the utmost respect for each other to still have a good time. You can enjoy a no strings attached hookup without either party wanting commitment. Happens all the time. Raze said: “They obviously saw it before you brought it up, they just got weirded out by you randomly bringing it up and seeking a reaction. You also basically told them to go away. If a woman randomly tells you her husband wouldn’t want her there that would be a rejection.” They were about to leave anyway, just not that abruptly. I’ve done enough of these to tell when women are starting to get bored of the interaction and are about to politely depart. They weren’t even shit testing me so there was really no interest beyond friendly chit chat. So it was the perfect time to casually bring it up. Nothing was lost that wasn’t already headed in that direction regardless.

Ye Tate is a v bad comparison. That dude literally bragged about sex trafficking to sell a product.

Andrew Tate recently got arrested, but he recorded a podcast soon before. I watched the whole podcast. This podcast is very interesting for a couple of reasons. 1) You learn about deception mechanisms 2) You learn how a narcissist/egomaniac makes sense of reality and convinces people 3) Being corrupt exposes you to corruption? (more about this later) 4) It's honestly very entertaining TLDR of the podcast (Much of this could be lies; it is told from Tate's perspective): Andrew Tate explains the full timeline from his rise to fame to the present. He frames himself as initially gaining a niche following from saying whatever he wants on social media. Then, he gets the idea to start a non-traditional school that teaches people how to make money. He gets subscribers and soon gets an offer for 50 million, which he describes as similar to Hollywood contracts that limit what famous people can say. He declines, ruffling feathers with powerful people, especially the British state. A woman falsely accuses him of human trafficking. Then he gets into more and more legal trouble, which he believes is contrived by the British in collaboration with the corrupt Romanian legal system, to shut him down because he is "capable of starting a revolution." He spends months in prison, developing PTSD and ruining his mental health. Tate tells an elaborate thriller movie-like story involving multiple break-ins to his house, framing himself as some kind of real-life John Wick. My Take Tate is obviously twisting the story to his benefit, and who knows how much of what he says is lies. It wouldn't be surprising if most of it is given he is a clear egomaniac/narcissist. However, it seems plausible that the British intelligence was after him. Also, the extreme corruption of the Romanian legal system is obvious, and he must have suffered some of it. Of course, Tate positioned himself in Romania to benefit from corruption, so it's fitting that he would become its target. It's an interesting case study in self-deception that Tate genuinely believes he is in the right and that he is some kind of hero. He is also very convincing, since he is admittedly a highly charismatic speaker and storyteller. Con artists make your animal brain want to get on their side. What do you think?

This is actually false. I know what you are pointing to but you aren't doing it properly. God is NOTHING. NOTHING is a mystery. So we at the highest level are a mystery looking at itself. It's like a floating question mark that is looking at it self and it realizes it is an eternal mystery. That is how you describe it properly. Also a realization= to become aware of something. If nothing were to realize nothing existed, that would still be a realization, Anyway Reality is both dead and alive at the same time. Consciousness is life and awareness is death. Consciousness has full self understanding and awareness has only the ability to know that it is, that it is the I AM because of Consciousness. -

If I give you a book right now that book has already happened. You are just reading it from the beginning. Its the same with a movie or tv show. There is only one author to life and That is the Godhead. When you go deep enough in this work you realize ONENESS cannot be defeated. The individuality and uniqueness of us all is just a persistent illusion created to have a sense of other. But in truth there is no other. If there is no other then everything has to be predetermined and destiny/fate. It only feels spontaneous because once it creates a lifetime and decides to incarnate into it/while also NOT incarnating into it as well it acts in a free manner. Its free in that their is no other its not free in that it has a specific nature. No Self= free to be whatever way you want, Self=specific nature of how it expresses itself. -

Ever notice how being too horny or obsessed with sex is a huge turn off for both men and women? It seems the perfect balance has to be found between wanting and trying to get sex and it's opposite. Think about it, those that aren't interested in sex never get it and those who are constantly looking for it will turn many people off and even gross them out in the process. This is true for both men and women.

@Ziran wow thanks. need to check that out

Yeah crypto is tough, some people win big most people lose out. I don't like mentionning Andrew Tate I think he's a dishonest sociopathic rapist. I like more what Tony Huge is doing just living with and dating multiple women and building a cool life together, like a more intentional version of polyamory. I'm not doing it myself at the moment, building up to it. I did regular game back when I lived in Toronto and it was fun but to me at least I ran out of what I could do without a large amount of cashflow and my own systems built. I would just date women and/or FWBs and hangout and that's fun but I wanted more and I felt like I hit a wall in the quality of the women I could attract. Then I started doing photoshoot container events after learning the model from social circle coaches. It's fun but the programs are designed for high income professionals to reinvest their disposable income into their social life to attract more women than they otherwise could. That's not a bad plan but I like the idea of building a business around it and scaling it globally. That's what I'm working on right now. Also with all the models I get I see a common theme where they are down to go to events, photoshoots and shoot content but they have a hard time managing it all by themselves. A lot of modelling agencies are scams and make their money charging the models for expensive shoots. I'm working on my own agency to help them automate a lot of their brand outreach and standardize content production. I think the way Hugh Hefner did it with his setup being buit on top of a media agency is the way to do it to get global reach. It's also quite fun to work with women and "conquer the world" with them so I'll keep going down that path and seeing how it goes. You still need game to optimize it and be in a genuine relationship with the women and not just manipulate them to get what you want. It just structures the relationship in the right way if you come at it from a provider angle after you already have the lover one secured imo. Financial issues are one of the top causes for divorces and even in marriages that stay together a lot of couples are just stressed and barely surviving in life. I think putting the cart before the horse and setting up your business properly is so key to a high level dating life and relationships.

If you aren't weird, you probably aren't acting authentic enough. There's a real desire to act goofy and irrational within us, and many people suppress that in their shadow. If you are actually authentic, approval and conformity wouldn't be as important as expression. being weird is just part of expressing oneself.
