  2. Cajun boudin cooks the meat before it's sausaged, so normal American sausage the juice(some blood) from the meat marinates the sausage, but cajun boudin is particularly white 'bloodless' sausage.

    I am like that but with the speakers I use. I like to control where I listen my digital music. For good reason, the experience can change a lot. Some speakers will kill important frequencies.

  5. New Chapter in My Life: Habits and Disciplines

    Spiritual Warrior replied to Spiritual Warrior's topic in Self-Actualization Journals

    Hold onto me. Cuz I'm a little unsteady.... A little unsteady. My name's Ben and I'm a little unsteady. But this is a persona I'm putting on. It's a mood that I'm attached to right now. My mood shifts day by day, moment by moment. Any mood that you succumb to now will vanish in an instant. There's nothing real about your self image or your mood or how you feel about yourself, it's all fleeting, it will all vanish and it will all pass. So let go. Let go so that you can be with God. Die. Fuckin die. There's nothing wrong with that. Pass your life on so that another can live. The irony here is that we are all fighting to survive when in reality, none of it really matters. Sure, if I die people will be sad, but guess what, I will have finally merged with the Oneness that is within us all. Dieing is the ultimate letting go, it the ultimate transcendence, it is the ultimate sacrifice. But my ego is well aware of what I am trying to do here and it is fighting tooth and nail to make sure that I don't find out the Truth. That is what makes this work so hard, I have an enemy inside of my own head that is fighting me at every turn.

    I like how body positivity was ultra viral 5-6 years ago and now we have looksmaxxing. How the pendulum has shifted
  7. Caribbean cuisine is very good.
  8. You mean "normal" sosage with meat ? I don't understand the question. Oh yes so that makes sense. These sausages/blood puding with added spice/pepper are called West Indian black puddings. ("boudin antillais").
  9. Thanks for telling me I’m not good enough, and that I need help with that to get better. Thanks for not accepting me. And for thinking I’m bothersome. And thanks for telling me I’m nasty, and uncaring and disrespectful. It’s was very helpful of you to make that analysis on an online forum. You must feel so much better for helping me. I’m indebted to your humbling presence.
  10. Then you are much closer to the idea of "proofs being paths through cognitive space" than to "mathematical logic". That idea, however, is mathematically, epistemologically and philosophically different enough to have its own term. I am pushing back not because I am being pedantic, but because I am trying to highlight one frequent failure mode you have when you talks specifically on scientific topics. (e.g. previous forum discussion on Gödel's theorems and the distinction between "incompleteness" and "inconsistency"). In mathematics, technical words come pre-loaded with a lot of definitional "weight". It is what helps mathematicians know that they are talking about the same thing, because the "notion" is air-tight (i.e. "math-speak"). The biggest failure mode (not yours, highlighting the risk) of people outside of math/science is that they haven't done their homework to understand the precise meaning which makes them conflate words/color them with their own notions. That makes all serious thinkers scoff (case in point are hippies with their "quantum lingo" ) and simply tune out because we immediately know the people have fitted the words to their meaning which makes what are already incredibly difficult conceptual questions impossible to be discussed - the "that's not what I meant" script. I know for a fact that is not you. You know the concepts and definitions and are well-read on the history/genealogy of these words and ideas. That is why when you are being loose with your wording, you risk being conflated yourself with the "hippie quantum" guys than be recognized as a generational thinker, which is what you are. Your book truly has the potential to be generational, which is why I have been posting a little more over the last few days, because I don't want you to miss that opportunity. As someone who reads and produces technical papers, reads a book or two a week and a textbook a month, I can tell you that "writing" is the hard part. Because reading it yourself will always seem understandable - you already have all the context for what you mean. But for someone who has not spent the thousands of hours like you contemplating, it takes a lot more to "catch them up to speed". Too many great thinkers get lost from humanity's Intellectual stream (Intelligence with capital "I") because their ideas were hard to penetrate. I really hope you are not one of them. Ask for feedback from the precise demographic you want to reach - the deep and contemplative thinkers. I am giving you feedback as one such sample point.

  15. I recently came to a strange realization: a lot of what I called “truth-seeking” was not born from pure curiosity or spiritual maturity. Much of it was a survival mechanism. I remember the first time I watched a self-help video by a dude called Collin Hiles, it was soon after what I used to call my first-ever breakup with some online chick I liked but we never met, I remember it took 4 years to get over some online video calls that barely lasted a month then she disappeared to go to Kenya for charity work allegedly then went back terrified of my obsessive daily love messages, which led to us going back and forth of her trying to keep distance while I was so attached to her that it felt like I couldn't breathe without her, or so I thought, ten confessions, rejections, relationships, and fights later I realized after digging deep, so deep that it was simply warmth that I was missing my whole life. I remember coping through video games (when available) to keep distance from two very toxic and violent people whom they call themselves parents, one day you are stabbed by a knife, the other, at five, you are kicked outside your house and country with your mum, the other you accidentally cut yourself and you try to sneak to your room because if you were seen, you'll be punished, and by punished I mean exiled or hit or have your truth twisted. I remember having to keep quiet when I am abused by my family, relatives, school...etc because I knew how speaking up would turn out to be from experience. I remember, I remember it all, I lived in fear, yet I kept receipts, some became inaccessible not due to forgetfulness but due to never been able to access these parts that were erased at the time to keep my sanity, because I have a sibling who lost his mind due to the anti-parenting we endured and now the only logical explanation is autism. I look at my pictures in the album and all I see is nervousness, anxiety and defensive-body postures. The journey to get to where I am has been long, so long in fact, I am grieving the childhood and the youth I never had, I spent it all armoring myself, analyzing, archiving, journaling, reading books, seeking the truth, letting go of my parents and looking up to many father/big brother-figures to model, some were self-help channels like Collin Hiles and Actualized's Leo, some were from books I read, some were singers and songwriters from songs that touched my soul so deeply, and some were mental health podcasts like Brian Barnett's, all of them provided addicting hints and truths to find what I lost and retrieve it. I gave back to those who really helped me, who said something I never heard, even ChatGPT I bought its plus license because it was able to stay long enough with me to capture the missing puzzle pieces in me, unfortunately they were people I never met but I love them all dearly and am very grateful to them for saving my life, it's been crazy 30 years, you helped me stand against a very sadistic and manipulative environment until I reached a point of stability and social independence and became the sanctuary in which others heal inside of. I chased after enlightenment because the very idea of erasing who I am was so tempting, I mean imagine telling your truth to a person of authority without having your throat hurt, imagine sitting alone somewhere and not have your chest hurt, imagine living without somatic pains, that's what drinking and smoking felt like temporarily, unfortunately that was all I had access for in a country in the middle east. Leo once apologized in one of his videos to the people with mental illnesses and whom were traumatized that he couldn't fully understand what they lived through, I wished more people were like that, it would help me do less mental archiving and more living. I came to a point of clarity that I never imagined possible, I am nowhere near being enlightened, maybe closer to mysticism but finally, after so long, I am contempt. I am curious if others here have noticed this distinction in themselves: truth-seeking as genuine curiosity versus truth-seeking as a trauma response. How do you tell the difference in your direct experience?
  16. Let us know what is really bothering you. Maybe we can help! Remember no matter how tough life gets the people around you are willing to care, help, and love you. Just reach out when you are ready. Peace bro
  17. Mistaking the images seen on a screen for reality is pornography for dummies. Just keep sucking your own dick. You love it.
  18. Okay, thanks for not accepting me for who and what I am. And for proving my point that no one knows you. Carry on with the pretentious BS but you don’t fool me.
  19. Thanks for the feedback "ZEN AF" but you are proving my point. Classic online disinhibition in full effect here. Have some respect and share joy and you will notice you will be happier and your life will get better. I'm willing to bet if you have time to be nasty on this forum there are many things in your life you'd wish to improve. The solution to all your problems is kindness and love. Hope it goes well for you.
  20. Appearances are deceptive. Think Dexter. Just be yourself, the real fictional character. No one knows you, non, except what you want to believe, what you want to see. Preferably what suits me me me. It’s a true story as old as time itself..
  21. What is the difference between social cues, like subtle facial expressions and other forms of communication being picked up on, vs telepathy? What is telepathy?

  23. So basically all Iran had to give up on is don’t go for nukes - which they already weren’t going for - and that their supreme leader had a fatwa against, who they assassinated vs everything else Iran got in return. It’s to be seen whether US can discipline Israel or not and put the “Zionists control US” assumption to rest. Iran is making the deal conditional on a ceasefire across all fronts including Lebanon. Iran is disciplining the US via Hormuz, to discipline Israel - what this admin have referred to as their “junior partner” - but Israel atm is a rabid dog only caring for its own maximalist demands at the expense of the goyim. ** @Elliott Goyim lives matter. Goyim avengers assemble.
  24. @zurew Thank you for the words. I didn't read it as dismissive, my phrasing was just the mathematician's equivalent "this is trivial" so all I meant is you wouldn't have to worry about me defending nominalism.
  25. Oh Gawd. 🤷‍♀️ Another truth denier rearing its ugly mole head.
