  1. Past hour

  2. AudioBooks or PaperBack?

    Great question and I have the same problem. Take notes while listening. Audible let's you save clips and organize and label them. There a huge case made for slow reading/listening as it makes you absorb the info better. The advantage of going through a book quickly though is that if it's bad you don't waste alot of time on it.
  3. Same. Who do you think would do well? I think Newsom and John Ossoff are both great. John Ossoff being my first choice as he seems smarter to me.
  4. Well they win about half the elections and still get about half the votes when they lose BUT you are right too. They play it too safe and that is their downfall in a way. Bernie Sanders is a generational talent and the Dems didn't embrace him. It's easy to make fun of the fact that conservatives are stuck in their ways but Dems aren't much better.

  5. AudioBooks or PaperBack?

    Wikipedia for me. The way its taxonomy is organised is very much like a brain. The amount of connections I make then in a given hour is insane. A book cannot replicate this, but it does add a mirror to my process. I can't wait to see what the next main tech enhanced system is going to be. Imagine VR wiki for example, it would be like having the ability to move anywhere in time or imagination in a single instant, the way the imagination works in the mind. Information is soon to be gamified, and gamification is soon to make education an artistic process for the first time.
  6. Isn't it interesting to think about all the fads and styles that have come and gone? Women would pluck their eyebrows very thin a few decades ago. Men would wear ruffs around their necks in the 1500s. Some African tribes stretch their ears and mouths with disks. Some people color their skin with ink. What's up with all that?
  7. Any God worth worshipping believes in forgiveness and second chances always.
  8. Thank you for championing epistemic responsibility for all of us. Yes, I have often been quite sloppy with this. 🙏
  9. If you see it the way I'm saying it you will understand the truth of everything. If you've been with someone and you broke up that's it. You have no right to be with anyone else anymore. Not you not anybody who has been the same. There are no second chances with someone new. No. The cost of failing at one relationship should be enough for everyone to not be in this mess we're in today with all of us being fucked up with too many failed relationships. A relationship must be just one sacred marriage united under God. One union. Oneness. Any other path is the path of mental illnesses. I know it sounds harsh but it is. If you have failed just accept loneliness for the rest of your life instead of wishing for your redemption with another person don't be that selfish. Remove yourself completely from the market and let society heal. That is what I'm doing at least. I hope you do it too and a movement of awakening arises from this messy society of ours. Peace.

  10. UFOs Are Here

    Natasha Tori Maru replied to Leo Gura's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events

    This alone is what makes this topic so difficult for me - there is as much disinformation as potential legitimate information floating around. As old Trumply boy said "The only way to deal with them, is to flood the zone with shit (information)". He wasn't referring to the UFO / UAP phenomenon per se - but it applies. I think we should also distinguish between UFO / UAP and aliens / NHI. The two topics are being mixed together when we are talking epistemology. Equivocating UAP / NHI is a domain/category error - as there are varying levels of evidence for each. And while the phenomenon's appear (or could) be linked, mixing the two when we debate epistemology is not assisting with clarity on the matter. The only reason I come from more conclusive certainty than yourself (and others here) is because of my unique experiences (as spoken about previously in this thread). Anyway - thanks for the shares on the topic I still think this topic brings in all the most open minded, charitable and interesting characters on the forum !!
  11. Today
  12. @Natasha Tori MaruI remember you mentioning you didn't trust Lue several times now. I haven't watched it yet but the title is eearly similar to your comments in this latest drop 😨:
  13. @Joshe Hey Joshe sorry about my rude post the other day I don't tend to act out on posts and try to be respectful of people. Having said that: I do not reach conclusions on the UAP topic like you have because I truly do not know. I'm at the same time super weary of the subject and don't take anything for granted. I have my own crackpot theories, but they remain just that...theories. If tommorow we find out it's all BS then cool I move on. However as I've stated here before, lots of good supportive evidence on the subject and an open mystery atm. A good bit of fun if you will (if you don't take yourself too seriously of course! 🤪). Btw dig deeper, most of your given reasons are good, but most have already had holes poked in by very credited scientists and experts in fields of imaging as well as army. Could all them be deluded too? Yes could be, I'm not ruling it out either. This subject is wrought with epistemic landmines left right and center. Also you can't ground reality in anything mate, reality is literally infinite. Your sense of sanity at one level is insanity at another. Take some phsycs, you'll instantly see what I just said making perfect sense. Note you assume I'm making the same mistake as flat earthers, cult members etc to your own detriment, I was studying simple self deception like this at 12-13 years old 😂. Mate who do you take me or the memebers of this community to be? Sorry this is my ego acting out 😍

  17. Yes. 'Inner game is the answer' has got to be the biggest load of bs i've ever heard.
  18. I remember when some smug edgy YouTuber tried to cancel this guy and everyone sided with him, but Prince EA ignored it and kept posting wholesome raps than the original guy himself got cancelled for metoo allegations. To me it was an ultimate example of virtue signaling vs actual virtue and how the masses prefer the former.
  19. What do you think of the video?
  20. You can actually but just not with self lies or affirmation which you seem to be alluding to.
  21. Because some girls don’t go for that so you’re filtering for specific people and the skills you learn from game don’t necessarily transfer over to making you better at relationships.
  22. Idk why he ever came to the US and not Russia or something where he wouldn’t be extradited. Even if he thinks he’s innocent does he really think they can’t bias a jury against him.
  23. I don’t like it either but as of now the establishment really isn’t promoting her.

  24. Request for Help

    Wait, wait, hold on here, guys..... hold tf on.... are y'all saying that I can't just raw-dog this computer thing and eventually be independent, remotely? Please read the original post if you haven't. I will state my goal once more. I want to be financially independent as soon as possible, and my income has to be remote. I only need a couple thousand a month coming in to achieve my goal. That's not a big ask. That's not a high bar. However, I want to choose something that has long term security and stability and a high ceiling. I just had my school orientation today. It just reinforced what I already expected, that this place is not for me, university is not for me. I gotta get out of this fkn place.... The only thing is all the cute girls around... That's the only thing I can find about university I like. Otherwise, it's a waste of time, a money grab, and a million other fucked up, corrupt things that I don't want any part of. Anyways, back to the goal. Look, I'm not dead set on the computer thing but I thought that that was the only thing I could do. I am open to following any path/learning any skill where I can make like 2,000 bucks, preferably within a year, and something that has a ceiling, also, so I can do it my whole life, and then something that won't be complete misery. Those are the conditions. Please hlp me.
  25. How you doing?
  26. One of his best political commentaries. I will say, on politics, Professor Dave is actually really good. Better than Destiny, if anything.

  27. The burden of infinite possibilities

    LordFall replied to Someone here's topic in Personal Development -- [Main]

    That's why I like the SMART goal setting framework, when you make your goals timebound and try it a few times you realize that most plans are not feasible and you narrow down your focus based on what you want and how much energy it's gonna require If you wanna make $1,000,000 for example then you need to find a high ticket offer and sell it 200 times at $5000 Or you need a $200k year salary with $100k yearly contribution to a high yield portfolio over like 6 years with a 15% average return. Goals stop being this vague nebulous thing and you find a lane and go for it. That removed a lot of existential dread for me instead of weighing 1000 different options that are not feasible or just don't fit my personality type.
