@NewKidOnTheBlockYou should look for one and date them, see what happens. Both retard would cancel out and become intelligence.

It's not just Lowering body fat (Extremely fucking difficult in this world) But also building an aesthetic body is way way more effort than just being skinny from running, or mass bulking. Because you need patience, structure, proportion, form, niche knowledge, injury prevention, scheduling, recovery. I'm trying to build out my upper chest and get my chest to catch up. But no matter what exercise i do with the best form, I do not feel my chest beijng activated. Realized this is due to a lack of neural activation and my somatype causes my arms and shoulders to always dominate movements as they have stronger neural pathway.s So i literally have to spend like 1-2 weeks just doing weird exercises and stretchers to build up the neural connections to my chest. And this is some niche knowledge, and without following this no matter how often I bench it would ALWAYS dominate with the arms. This is some annoying ass shit. I dont wanna do this. I just wanna workout for 40 minutes then fuck off and wake up some time and look like a fitness model. But without steroids, it doesnt work like that. That's life. But also, depends on what you value, I value excellence and being the best.

Reading the original spiral dynamics book is an utter necessity. it frames everything in an academic context as it should be understood.

@TruthFreedomI have some qualities but I wouldnt lean into it as an identity.

I roughly know which ones you are alluding to, I find them strange and not very interesting or entertaining to me, since they feel like an attempt at societal satire by a permanently online autist, yet I can acknowledge that they do contain some elements of truth despite their oversimplified ridiculousness and reliance on these made up internet archetypes

First some context … For the past year and a half, I’ve had to move back in with my Parents to take care of my dad who suddenly developed a neurological disorder related to Parkinson’s - Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) to be more specific. He needs assistance doing a lot of things like going to the washroom, preparing his meals, dressing, walking etc and it’s only getting more dire. His condition makes him moody, uncooperative, angry and just plain annoying, even though at times he will admit he is being a pain and will apologize. Since I’m single, (and the eldest sibling) the burden of responsibility has fallen on me to take care of him. My mom is aging as well and cannot manage him on her own. My other two siblings have families of their own, but are cognizant of the state of affairs at home and will help from time to time. Since I’m also self-employed I do have some flexibility in my work schedule, but it’s difficult leaving him alone for too long, and attending to work duties. ——- Before all of this I was quite happy with my life. It was simple, peaceful and as an introvert who lived on his own, I was quite content with the way things were. But now I yearn for those days. Now it’s a lot of stress and suffering. Yelling at times, because he demand a lot of attention for the littlest of things, A lot of disturbed nights, to wake up and assist my dad. The situation at home constantly takes up most of my energy both physically and mentally. And I’m trying to just accept the situation for what it is, without fighting it, without trying to change it to be something else. I wonder sometimes, am I supposed to be learning the value of patience, of how to be empathetic towards the needs of someone else? What exactly is the lesson here? Why do I want all of this to just be over, so things can go back to how it was. I lose my temper sometimes, I yell, I get mad, and I do all this, knowing fully well that I shouldn’t. I need to be kinder, more patient, more gentle, more loving, and I try all those things as much as possible. But sometimes it just gets to the point where I just cannot contain the annoyance… the energy is too strong and it seeks release and I yell, as much as I don’t want to. This form of love is the hardest thing I’ve had to do. To love and understand someone even if that love keeps wanting more and more and is barely acknowledged. Coupled that with the stress and worries of everyday life and trying to manage my own responsibilities is becoming too much of a burden. I also realize this phase of my life will come to an end. My dad is 82, and even though I feel guilty for saying this, he may not have much time left or maybe he does. Who knows? Sometimes I just want all this to end yesterday, sometimes I just take it day by day and tell myself I’m growing from this experience. It is teaching me something. In time I will understand the lesson here…. I pray this is all going somewhere.

Q #41: The events, activities, and relationships of our “waking dream” comprise our classroom and are the vehicles for learning our lesson of forgiveness. Is there any particular significance or value of our “sleeping dreams” in the process of learning forgiveness and should our response to these images be any different from our response to our “waking dream” classroom? A: It is the same mind that is dreaming both our waking and sleeping dreams. And it is one of the ego’s many tricks to try to convince us that there is a real difference between the two so that we believe we are awake when we are really still asleep, just having a different form of the same dream of separation. One of the more important insights our sleeping dreams offer us upon our shifting to a seeming waking state is the realization that our mind has the power to make up a world in dreams that seems very real while we are experiencing it, a world made up solely to meet our own personal needs. Jesus elaborates on this aspect of our sleeping dreams in a very clear passage: “Does not a world that seems quite real arise in dreams? … And while you see it you do not doubt that it is real. Yet here is a world, clearly within your mind, that seems to be outside. You do not respond to it as though you made it, nor do you realize that the emotions the dream produces must come from you … You seem to waken, and the dream is gone. Yet what you fail to recognize is that what caused the dream has not gone with it. Your wish to make another world that is not real remains with you. And what you seem to waken to is but another form of this same world you see in dreams. All your time is spent in dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking dreams have different forms, and that is all. Their content is the same. They are your protest against reality, and your fixed and insane idea that you can change it” (T-18.II.1:1; 5:2- 4,8-15). In our sleeping dreams, we have the same choice of teachers that we have when we are “awake” and we may find over time that we can choose forgiveness while we sleep, recognizing that our judgments within the dream are not justified. We may even become a lucid dreamer, becoming aware, even as we are dreaming, that our sleeping dream is an invention of our own mind, presaging the awareness that will eventually come to us about our waking dreams. And our sleeping dreams also afford us the opportunity to understand the real meaning of forgiveness that Jesus is attempting to lead us towards, when we realize, upon awakening, that the source of any upset we experience in our sleeping dreams has nothing to do with what anyone else is doing to us. Our upset reflects nothing more than a decision in our own mind to be upset and then to attribute that loss of peace to a cause that seems to be outside of ourselves. The awareness that this is what we are also doing in our waking dreams is the foundation for the process of forgiveness as Jesus presents it to us in the Course: “I am never upset for the reason I think .” “ I am upset because I see something that is not there.” (W-pI.5,6). “Forgiveness recognizes what you thought your brother did to you has not occurred” (W-pII.1.1:1). When we can generalize this recognition from our sleeping dreams to our waking dreams, we will be well on the way to awakening from all of our dreams of separation.

You're just trying to get back at me. You're a doomer too, admit it. It's wonderful being a doomer. We get to smoke cigarettes in our lonely apartments with no one to bother us.
-
@NewKidOnTheBlock There's a bittersweet joy that comes from it. It's like finding beauty in pessimism. I look at these ugly cartoons and find them intriguing and life affirming

Show me a doomer and youve shown me a retard

I wonder what one could love about it, perhaps a certain sense of comfort in the inevitability, perhaps the smug sense of intelectual superiority (however delulu it might be), either way it's not necesarilly correct to look at things throught the lenses of doomerism, it's not even about the assesment that if one were to look at how life - and society at large - function unbiasedly (which is impossible) that you'd come to the doomerish conclusions (because it's impossible to be unbiased); rather, doomerish conclusions are simply the logical culmination of examination of your life experiences - and life experiences of other people - so far, with a bias, yes, but nevertheless the conclusions are very likely to be true
-
No, I'm just talking about the doomer wojack videos on YouTube. I find them funny, and enjoy my life as a doomer. If you can find joy in being a doomer, then isn't that wonderful?

Bro skipped rationality and went straight to post rationality. I think post rationality is not the right wording for this state. Post rational is still rational but it has the self reflection to see the limits of rationality and thus gives it appropriate boundaries. Truly post rational people are very rare without some weird perceptual perversion.

do you think this will make you happy or help you improve society in a constructive way? to me this sounds like a cognitive bias for focussing only on the "bad stuff" in life, which is even solidified through turning it into a whole way of being, an identity. imao, quite a depressing way to live. "all is doomed." - ok, so what? what's next?

Dude ..don't get cocky ..we get it ..you know a thing or two about physics..doesn't mean you should talk down on us with your nose higher than Eiffel tower. You have no idea what consciousness is . -

So, I'll answer the author's question . Is God self-aware? He is, in essence, the Most Self-Aware, and that includes through you. I'm going to bed. -
He is playing in the Saudi league now for the desert dweller cup getting 200 mil per year. Pff Imagine that money. He already has so much money. I wouldn't have done it. Especially considering the human rights situation in that country.

Sorry, I'm probably just sleeping. So. This phrase about something or someone asserting something, who asserts it? It seems taken out of context. Some blogger asserting it? Or a school teacher? What materialism? Or is it asserted in feature films? Or is it simply someone's personal experience that asserts it? Does "emergence" mean anything? Emergence is the emergence of completely new properties that "things," so to speak, didn't have before they began interacting. The concept of emergence can be applied to anything. For example, a crowd of people, a society of some kind, develops completely new properties that are not inherent to individuals, even properties of certain computing programs. That's emergence. And the idea that we're just a bunch of unconscious matter gathering to form emergent consciousness—well, that's an extremely oversimplified answer... I'm off to bed. -
@NewKidOnTheBlock learn to love it.

School is just not for me, and i don't want a lot of money, i just want to be able to live a decent comfortable life. How do i do it outside the school/academic system ?

Did you read my explanation about consciousness or you only can listen to yourself? -
Essentially me, but I don't love it lmfao
