Since what I can only describe as my death about half a year ago, when I took dmt, I’ve been trying to articulate several things that became clear from that event. This essay is one of them. It’s called Theory of Precedence. The basic idea is that whatever appears depends on something that precedes its appearance, but that “something” cannot itself be fully contained as an object inside what appears. The essay separates three levels: object, representation, presentation. An object is what is being referred to. A representation is the model, symbol, code, description, or map of it. Presentation is the regime of availability that makes that representation count as a representation at all: interpretation, execution, attention, evaluation, consciousness, etc. The core thesis is that representation depends on presentation. A system can model itself, inspect itself, improve itself, represent previous layers of its own operation, and even build meta-frameworks. But it cannot fully capture the current presentation that makes those representations available without generating a new layer or collapsing the distinction between representation and presentation. So this is not an attempt to “prove God” through formalism. It is more precise than that: it tries to show the structural wall that any representational framework hits when it tries to contain the condition of its own appearing. Metashifting is the operation where a framework turns its own horizon into an object of a wider horizon. You can keep climbing levels like this, and you can even define formal limits of the chain. But the limit of the chain is not Omega. Omega is not the final level. Omega is the precedence from which the whole chain appears as a chain. In short: every representation of presentation appears under a presentation. That is the wall the essay is trying to formalize. Check it out! https://pedrocrohare.com/precedence/en/

Do you watch porn regularly? Being used to being alone shouldn't have too much with sexual drive. Technology mostly hightens competition, it's like globalization. The women in your immediate vicinity are engaging with the content of people living across the world and in part other men with more resources living funner lives than you. If you have the drive to compete it's not an issue but if your brain chemistry is out of whack then yeah it's gonna be overwhelming. The dating marketplace becoming more competitive is why social media and social circle game are so important.

I'm sensing there is an expectation of being rejected by some people and then an energetic defense to that just becomes part of their personality.

I don't think tranaformers itself is doing any damage at all. Transformers by themselves are just humble tech. They just exposed the underlying instability. Stop calling them AI companies. There's no AI. We don't even have real AI or RL in the world yet.

@Yimpa Stop it! You are driving me insane Maybe I don't even have OCD and this current goose chase I'm on about OCD is OCD's sneaky way to destroy my life. Wait...

No such thing as OpSec? Why'd y'all keep falling for honeypots?

It's so strong. When I started ordering supplements from abroad, my mother (doctor) was like super skeptical meanwhile she is buying Nycoplus (the main generic brand our pharmacies sell) which do not have any non-state or independent third-party certifications, do not provide publically available contaminant reports and are generally subpar (e.g. use non-chelated minerals, the shitty non-phosphatized B vitamins). At least she doesn't go full stepdad "I read two sentences on government website about dietary advice and that is all I need for living healthily" (which depending on your standards, fair enough). -
Oh, wow… So that’s what my profile pic about (yes, i drew it)

@Natasha Tori Maru wow he has fillers on his lips 😵

Yeah I really struggle with closing loops. I went and bought a laptop today that's been consuming my thinking for several months. But yeah without any proper guidance or understanding that you are dealing with OCD, not even meditation helps ultimately because these thoughts take an order of magnitude and purported significance that feels hyper-real, spiritual, and emotionally valid in a way that is deeply authentic to me as a person. Nevertheless, I have never had any of my therapist suggest I had OCD. It's something that I started to realize recently and my father has it as well with all the rituals and so forth. I always knew he had it but I didn't recognize it in myself.

ahahhaha i see what youre saying One thing me and schizo have in common (I think) is that we are not overly concerned about the validity of Leos teachings because we dont rely on them for guidance, we are drawn to this place naturally for other reasons so it allows for something more "playful" I guess. I remember back when I first started to spend significant time here, in the very beginning I could sometimes feel my heart beating hard physically, not because of stress but because I felt the "energies" of this place so strongly

I'm gonna take 5 mg CBN with 10 mg THC tonight. This small dose of CBN didn't do much for me last time I tried it, which was 5 months ago. However, I was also in a much different place in my life then. So we'll see how it goes this time around. I think I'll add some CBD in there too, this time around (I didn’t add CBD last time). I love me some poly weed action, so this should be exciting this time around. The more the merrier, as they say. ---------- Edit: I did the real math: 5 mg CBN, 12.5 mg THC, 7.5 mg CBD It’s going in my mouth right now. (9:00 PM CST) As you can see, I took 1 mL of the purple stuff, and 0.5 mL of the other stuff. Science

Oh! I am just laughing at the boys of the forum getting all excited about witnessing chemistry in action You and Schizophonia just have that curious sort of dancing/play energy in your interactions. Similar to the weirdness between Carl & I. It doesn't always have to be, or mean, there is any sexual charge (it certainly can mean that, though). Play is just one of those things that pops up when you rub brains with certain people

Darius J Wright is very popular on YouTube for OBEs I feel like this is the case for me. My mind is so damn busy, it's never really been something that came easy to me. Never been able to do it. -

You don't think psychedelic Awakening increases longevity? How about abiding awakening?

Maybe most people just don't have the discipline to learn to lucid dream, or they simply can't?
