  2. Bro sounds like your boy is gaslighting and shaming actual rational needs. Framing real-world value, security, and competence as purely "superficial / survival-oriented ego" is a classic Stage Green spiritual bypass. Depth and grounded real-world capability are not mutually exclusive—the highest-tier men have both. A woman wanting a man who has his career, finances, emotional health, and lifestyle sorted isn't "living in her ego"; she's displaying basic biological intelligence. I think it's great to want to connect emotionally rather than only through status games but that's also a false dichotomy. It's not because women value competence and stability in a man that they're gonna dump you to go fuck any man with $10K more in his bank account than you. Sounds to me like you're doubling down on an influencer that invalidates your shortcoming and validates your strengths. That's a road to delusion and frustration my friend.
  3. This proves my point actually. I'm not saying monogamy is better. I'm saying monogamy, as it is, is hard enough and mostly failing. Polyamory only adds more hardships and complexity. So don't expect success. Go and fight feminism, and you may have a chance at your dream lifestyle, but maybe in a couple generations. It's not like I don't want polyamory, I do. But I live in reality, not in my imagination. And in reality, it doesn't work. Monogamy hardly works anymore.
  4. The burden of proof is on you. You are claiming there is a massive nation-wide conspiracy. This is something you need to prove. “Everybody knows it” is not remotely enough evidence to support that claim.
  5. I'm sorry bro as an INTP there is nothing I hate more than inaccurate confidently wrong blanket statements so I have to counter irrational points. I will prove you right I do use AI for a lot of stuff that I'm not sure on and to make sure what I say makes sense and is not easily disproved. Your 1 in a billion number has no bearing on our reality in any way whatsoever. There are documented studies on this and they found exactly 0 difference between average relationship satisfaction between monogamous and polyamorous couples. It's fine to have an opinion and a bias but why leave it be if it's not accurate. That's why I called you an anti-intellectual. Anyway, I would recommend this movie its really great and showcases a throuple so you and anyone reading can see what it looks like in practice. It's based on a real man Doctor William Moulton Marston who is the creator of Wonder Woman and was openly polyamorous in the 40s while teaching at Harvard. His two girlfriends stayed together after he died until their own deaths after he passed away. I understand that it's a difficult paradigm for westerners because it's not common but in some places of the world it is comon. Sometimes it's toxic sometimes it's not, just like any romantic relationship and friendships. I'm half french Canadian and half African from Chad and heck my dad's adoptive father was polyamorous and his two wives are still living together today after he died and they're in their 80s now.
  6. It's a hallucination people commonly report while in stimulant psychosis / on deliriants such datura.
  7. Do I think making a deal is an easy task? No, of course not. So don’t start a totally unnecessary war in the first place. He’s been flip flopping between announcing final peace deals and total annihilation of Iran for 6 months, yet neither of these things ever seem to materialise. It’s all empty promises and hollow threats, that are also conveniently posted at just the right time for stock market manipulation. My actual point, which I think you failed to address, is that Trump is erratic, and eroding the world’s trust in America as a stable country. Most of America’s allies are trying to figure out how to distance ourselves from the US because we are seeing the US as an increasingly unstable and unreliable trading (and military) partner. This will bring the US to ruin in the long run. Trump does not care about this, he does not care about the US, he cares only about enriching himself, his family and his friends. To address one of your other claims, Iran doesn’t want nuclear weapons to bring about end times. They want nuclear weapons for the same reason the other countries that have them wanted them; deterrent. Iran has a long history of Western interference, this war is the next iteration of that. In their mind if they have nukes the US (and Israel for that matter) will finally leave them alone.
  8. I think it's also that and also emotional control is a relatively modern thing. Men and women in history would fly into incontrollable rage all the time and even more-so if they are a powerful king with unlimited power. So many times where that got them killed a few years later because yeah precisely it's bad strategy. The coolest idea on Jesus I've heard is memetic desire by Rene Girard where Jesus's story was so different from the ones at that time and still today where usually high status powerful men were violent and destroyed their opposition whereas Jesus took the non-violent resistance route and perhaps in the story of universal consciousness literally was the saviour that brought our civilization towards human rights and liberalism even without the whole son of God context put into it. Personally I think I'm quite high consciousness but if Russians came and wanted to crucify me or give me the option to take it back and live in the status quo you can bet I am not ending up on a cross lol so good job J man maybe he did redeem us. If you haven't watched it yet the show The Chosen is about jesus and is actually entertaining and teaches good lesson. I gotta go back and finish it I watched season 1 and its actually game me a paradigm shift I thought Jesus was like a lame boring preacher but he's depicted as a wise man and also courageous action taking leader for his people so it's very fun and inspiring to watch. Sure but I think mostly good ol fear mongering of eternal damnation will do the trick as well. Even I have said out loud I accept Jesus as my saviour in a state of random anxiety because I sort of experienced hell through a mystical experience so I'm not taking any chances even though I do mostly align with Leo's view that God doesn't really punish its beings nor judge them but you never know man cause and effect can be brutal even if God isn't that vengeful.
  9. lmao that wasn’t a deal, it was a retirement fund for the IRGC. Trump tore it up because it was a ticking time bomb with a sunset clause, giving the world’s leading state sponsor of terror a legal on-ramp to a nuke. but sure, "diplomacy". Iran’s been threatening to choke that waterway since before you were born. the only thing Obama "controlled" was the rate at which he shovelled cash into their navy’s pocket. permanent control? they can’t even keep their own proxies from getting vaporized. an "order of magnitude more intelligent"? the guy who drew a red line in Syria and then went back to golfing while Assad gassed children? this is your strategic mastermind? Trump’s got the entire Axis of Resistance crumbling without putting a single American boot on the ground. and as for that trillion dollars, the only one on track to spend that is whatever senile puppet you’re backing, trying to rebuild all the credibility Obama set on fire and Biden doused in jet fuel. Trump’s deal, when it’s real, won’t cost a dime. "the problem isn't Iran." absolutely incredible. the problem isn't the regime that hangs teenagers from cranes, machine-guns its own shopkeepers in the street, and has "Death to America" as an actual state slogan. they were gunning down their own citizens in the streets by the thousands just before the war started. but no, the problem is the American president. this is the level of political analysis we're dealing with folks. 😂 meanwhile what Trump has achieved: Assad is gone. Hezbollah is decapitated. Hamas is disarmed. The IRGC's air defenses are rubble. the rial is confetti. protests in all 31 provinces. their entire forty-year forward-defense architecture is scattered across four countries in pieces, and their so-called supreme leader is negotiating from a bunker. yeah Jo, sounds like the problem isn't Iran. sounds like Iran doesn't have any problems at all.
  10. But surgery and antibiotics work towards homeostasis (killing bacteria, repairing tissues…). They just do it even more efficiently. What I'm looking for are supplements that alter the endocrine balance. But I'm being picky here to inflate my ego lol we understand each other yes.
  11. @LordFall This sounds less like AI and more like you 😂 People are experimenting with relationship dynamics. Doesn't mean they are finding happiness or success, let alone both. A truly happy and successful case of polyamory that doesn't end in conflict is less than 1 in a billion, if that. Doesn't matter though. Go and prove me wrong. Go find your harem of girls and make it work. I'm here, waiting.
  12. Superficial dating strategy vs Depth Notice that superficial dating strategy is very survival orientated. Very shallow and not sustainable, as there will always be someone who can provide better survival goodies. She represents the ego in dating very strongly. This is an interesting conversation as it’s not two ”spiritual / integrated” people talking, so there’s a lot of conflict, and Naftali cannot have his way too easily, like he tends to have due to his strong frame. Notice how the ego uses higher conscious qualities like integrity and hard-working to rationalize in its favour.
  13. Dubai chocolate (dunno if it was mentioned yet)
  14. Listen man these conversations are not that serious but if I link actual evidence of my points and your reply is sorry I don't open IG links I don't know what to say about that, that's like catastrophic anti-intellectualism and laziness to the point that it robs your presence in the conversation of any meaning. It's clearly more than 1 in a billion there are many subreddits dedicated to polyamory with hundreds of thousands of people in them and millions of people worldwide practicing it so you're just monologuing your bias with no actual grounding in reality. You're not gonna believe this but social media personalities are real people like you and me. Saying they're motivated by clicks and likes is like saying jobs are not real because people are motivated by money. It's like 30% a valid point but especially because you refuse to look at it to me it looks like you are scared of people living lives that break your paradigms of life. Which is not only cowardly and against the openness principle of self-actualization but I mean we're talking about dating two girls at the same time here so you're hiding from the best part of reality idk how tf your ego managed that one lol
  15. they're getting results in terms of winning internal primaries. DSA will lose even more ground to Republicans in general elections.
  16. 👍 We'll see yes I'll keep you posted.
  17. @Schizophonia That’s actually a very fair objection. If someone just blindly throws synthetic compounds at their endocrine system to override natural feedback loops, they usually wreck their health and we see that all the time with uncalibrated biohacking like our friend Connor Murphy for example. Where the nuance lies with Bryan Johnson is that he isn't guessing or relying on human intuition alone. He's running constant bio-markers, blood panels, and organ imaging, effectively treating the body like an engineering system with a feedback loop. Modern medicine itself—from antibiotics to surgery—is technically "counteracting" natural evolutionary outcomes (like dying from a routine infection at 30). It’s definitely a high-risk pioneer path, but I think the real-time data approach is what separates him from standard bro-science.
  18. @LordFall Seems very AI. Even if true, it's super rare. Like less than 1 in a billion. Even if it happens, it won't likely continue or be easy as you're imagining. It's already super hard to establish stability between two people with different survival agendas. A third person would only make it more harder and complex. Social media personalities are not examples or proof of anything. They're motivated by clicks and likes and appearances, not by truth. I generally don't open IG links. I hate going from here to IG.
  19. I have ocd and bipolar type 1, as well as a predisposition to developing schizophrenia. I was wondering if deep spiritual work is suited for me since i have these conditions, obviously psychedelics are a big no, because they present too high of a risk for mania and psychosis. But even meditation retreats as well as existential contemplations carry significant risks. I have suffered so much, to a degree beyond reason or comprehension because of these conditions, before and during early treatment. Now that i'm looking back i think that deep meditations and contemplations could have triggered the manifestation of these conditions in me although i certainly had genetic and biochemical predispositions. I think i might drop spirituality and just live a simple life.
  20. How could counteracting the actions of the endocrine system and the body in general promote longevity He thinks he is smarter than millions of years of evolution because he read and interpreted a study with his puny human mind.
  21. Fair enough fréro! Didn’t mean to bust your chops publicly if you're trying to have fun and self amuse. Glad to hear the girl you're talking to is going well, keep us posted on how it develops!
  22. @JJfromSwitzerland Coldest summer you may ever have again..a cool 46 degrees Celsius. Something big may be coming with this El Niño and now a new anomaly is happening. I suspect it will disrupt the world. It’s also coming in a time a major global heat waves, heat domes and major drought. Also, at a time when crops are already threatened. Expect major heat waves, storms, failing power grids, water shortages, and food shortages and the conflict which will follow. I don’t think the first major crisis of climate change are a century away. They are happening now, and are 5 years or less away.
