Imagine 100 people contemplating suicide. Roughly how many are in the exceptional-cases category? Possibly not even 1. You might have to go up to 1000 before you even get one. I myself have seen more than 100 cases of people contemplating suicide and not a single one of them fit the exceptional-cases category. So yes, it wasn't meant to be precise number, but it wasn't pulled out of thin air either. I'd say the 99% is a reasonable ballpark. 95 seems too low. Given the size difference, it doesn't make sense to publicly cater to the exceptional-cases category because you'd do more harm than good, which people seem to be having a difficult time grasping. --- There's too much variation/uniqueness for me to conceptualize suicidal ideation on a spectrum. But nonetheless, the examples you highlighted wouldn't fit in the exceptional-cases category. -
I don't think there is one. But if you could potentially learn it here, why would you shut down that oportunity?

OMG LOL haha What do you think about Big Jan (RIP; he's not called Big Jan, that was a joke; Jan Esmann)?: -
This is old. I'm the guy in the black jacket on the left.

Yeah, it's a sad state of affairs, in this context. I like to think of LLMs as autocorrect on steroids, or as smart, interactive dictionaries. Something like that. -
Cool thing I’ve been doing recently to help supplement my learning is searching playlists in YouTube search. There’s a lot of quality playlists that get drowned out on YouTube search engine by trending single videos in isolation. By searching videos in playlist you can spend a few minutes or an hour every day building knowledge on a topic you’re working towards consistently while encountering new content that rounds out your comprehension on the topic. Would highly recommend this neat little trick

There's no evidence supporting this claim. Maybe it was simply rhetorical. I would argue that most people who consider/think about suicide are not simply looking for "reasons to go through with it." Suicidal thinking exists on a spectrum. Some people have a persistent desire to die. But then also many experience intense ambivalence; they want the pain to end and want to live if things could improve. -
Spiritual snobbery/materialism. Pretension in disguise.

He actually has some great insights in the video.

And.... Germany is already out. Beaten by Paraguay on penalties.

Who's the best and longest friendship you've had, and what do you credit for why it worked out so well? Also, what would you say are the main reasons why most friendships didn't last?

Shrinking horse balls in cold weather, or I'm out.

Germany just got kicked out of the WM. I actually feel kinda sad about it which surprises me.

When he first started he was good - I agree 100%. I feel like he fell into manosphere content in the same slow boil manner people who are chronically online and chained to their algorithm do. It is sad to see a psychologist become corrupt.

Oh no, I just realized that a good chunk of how I imagine a good life is through the lense of apple products. On a trip I also imagined a good social life through the lense of an IKEA catalogue, so nothing unique about apple.

What is interesting is that the good life that I imagine never has anything to do with mindless consumption, I always imagine myself in a creative process. But then practically that feels too hard. Well ... what does that mean? Is the version I have of myself correct and I simply need to catch up to that practically? Does it mean I need to account for real life?
-
Gives me gross vibes too, he was great when he started but he got a whiff of the manosphere clicks and sold out. Fuck him. I think I tried to introduce his content here when he first started.....

What's stopping you now? It's still a good time to go! nǐhǎo haha. Yeah I've heard that's super sommon there. It's such a homogeneous culture still.

Completly blocking embedded videos makes a huge difference holy shit. Its really weird atm, I am so used to mindlessly consuming stuff that I have little strategies on what to actually do when everything is blocked. I also noticed that I seem more quick in my thinking and more confident. When free dopamine isnt available you are more willing to get it elsewhere. Like when your brain thinks you are doing survival when playing video games easy peasy then why would it pour resources into socializing which is risky. I noticed this before as well when I quit video games and its interesting that it also works when I block youtube.

That's not true french love confident guys like everybody else And you don't need to argue or debate or prove a point or show actually it is a terrible strategy in french more than in usa ! Arrogance and lack of empathy and self awareness is not confidence Someone with confidence would debate or would need to show off especially in Paris where people are lot more rigid in there thinking than other worldwide cities

The very fact that there is argument over this subject shows the situation isn't obvious. Nobody is arguing whether or not water is wet.

It is about what I expected. What they are doing goes way beyond sapo (5-meo). I quit because it only gives a temporary simulation of reality which then quickly turns into a memory. Sadhana gives a permanent change of consciousness. What he said (in the second video) resonated with me: “you are wasting your energy”.

Great question, it's a post for men to see the female perspective and perhaps help them see what women find attractive
