I don't like to start threads. I try to find threads that are already created. Just my style. -
I would say yes and no. He tends to repeat himself often and speaks in all vs. nothing a lot. It gets annoying. I tried to finish them but I missed the last ones.

Start a thread. Lay out your thoughts.

I feel like people who claim to have done a lot of psychedelics did a minor dose, they never had a breakthru dose.

Jesus! I fucking had a mini-shock of how I would feel experiencing God just by watching that man. -

This is a great question. We should have a good faith discussion on this topic. I do not think I am special. It is not about that. That is the misinterpretation. I have no desire to be special in relation to what I am creating. -
What makes you think you're special in this regard?

Actually I realize I am creating all of it. -
But you mind non-religious people who mind religious people. You get into that with us. The irony.

@Natasha Tori Maru My question for you is why did you ask this? Are you going thru something?

Everything is going in the direction of managing AI Workflows.

@Leo Gura You might like Polestar's designs. Today's cars look like they've been designed by some IT-dudes, zero soul.

Everyone in the agency community knows AI should be used in your business; it shouldn't be your service offering. I've seen AI offers like, A. 'We can cut down the hours you spend on this task by 80%.' or B. 'We can implement an AI agent in your business so it handles and books appointments outside of business hours when there is nobody available to answer, instead of just going to voicemail' And then you have an offer that is completely unrelated to AI, existed before AI, that is still going to be a better offer and an easier sell, like: 1. 'I can get you 10 high-ticket clients a month using Facebook ads or cold mass email/SMS sendouts; you pay me a portion of what I get you, at no upfront cost to you' 2. 'I can take your database of old clients that haven't booked anything in a while, reactivate them via email, and capture your future website traffic with an email capture pop-up; we will increase your store revenue by 40%, or you pay nothing' TLDR AI offers suck; I haven't seen one that matches offers that already did well before it And your offer is like 90% of the game, that and volume of outreach/ads, so it does matter, a lot. 1. My uses of AI have been generating a website fast and without money in minutes 2. Designing Image-based email campaigns; it's a big help. It's more like a way to speed up your workflow instead of creating entirely new business solutions It's very useful overall. I haven't really posted everything I know. AI is currently getting a lot of hype, and where hype goes, your skepticism should follow

People cry more on impulse, habit or survival, more than they consciously fake it, in my experience. Calling it fake or ignoring it on those grounds would only work in pick up, on the first few dates with someone, someone you’re just getting to know or interact with via work frequently, etc. This shouldn’t be a notable problem with in our own lives, if we are surrounding ourselves with good people. If it is, I’d suggest better people or considering more workable solutions. What ‘little thing’ could actually be solved? Maybe the solution is faster and more of a win-win-win than what meets the eye. — Anybody ever play Left4Dead? You would think my experience with all this crying would have desensitized me but the witch in that game, sobbing—fucking hell 🤣. Super scary. I was also like 10 years old, though.

You've taken some strikes lately man. Wow. -
Redpill is one of the few places where young men feel heard about their dating struggles. The rest of society often tells you to suck it up and that you're the problem, without really acknowledging how painful loneliness and constant rejection is. The problem with redpill is how it generalises. It takes your experiences and turns them into rules and absolute truths about women and dating. Eventually, you end up seeing every interaction through that lens, making you distrustful and holding you back from forming genuine connection. If you ask yourself if it's holding you back: How much has it helped you understand yourself and women better? How much has it helped you form meaningful relationships?

I’ve seen men and women break and people cry for all sorts of reasons. I’ve noticed a few types. There is crying, and there is bawling. Bawling is what I’d consider “max crying.” If somebody is bawling, man or woman, there are usually only a select few options that actually comfort them or provide direction. Silent presence works 80% of the time. If you know them, give them a hug; if you don’t—ask. If it’s somebody you’re very close to, and they’re really bawling, probably collapsed, hyperventilating, a restraining full-body hug can be surprisingly effective. I’ll lie behind them and hug them with my arms and legs, quite tightly. No words, maybe shhhhhs, like a baby. I only bring this up because it’s been a gut reaction a few times. I had considered it before, as I’ve seen people bawl. It helped with my dad, though. And, separately, a girl I was with. Seemed like the best option at the time. I recognized that people’s minds can overwhelm them, and literal restraint can be comforting. Extreme scenarios. Silent presence works 80% of the time. If they’re really bawling, time slows down for me. It’s not exactly explainable. Sometimes, if it’s more basic crying, identifying whether they’re looking for more comfort or more direction helps. Men usually want more direction. Women usually want more comfort. (Usually) Comfort is: listening. Listening is: waiting for an actionable. The actionable is: repeat what they said and demonstrate it (especially if it’s about you). Comforts can also be: Walk away (rare) Walk away—come back with food Suggest food Ask them what they want “Spar Listen”—where you pseudo-defend yourself or the subject’s objections in a self-defeating manner that is funny and highlights the silliness Suggest an activity (favorite show, etc.) Encourage/reward previous or future activity Reminders, context Offer a formal “it’s okay to move on” Do something specific to address the actual problem “New Plans,” where you rewrite the day (not literally, but at least “rewrite the problem” in a way that would sound good or workable to most) For direction: Listening—still, especially if the person thinks out loud FORGET WHAT THEY WANT, tell them what they need, especially if you can repeat something they said themselves that points to that need, or can gently identify a pattern with a relatable solution that highlights a path forward. But really, don’t tell them. Talk about it. Logistics a. Actionables b. Contingencies (can be pressuring, but if legitimate, the rational mind will see options deplete and create the actionables itself) Walk away, let them figure it out Ask simple questions Ask challenging questions, depending on the person Wait X amount of time, then attempt one of the above options if timing feels paramount to its effectiveness Any combination of the above options People are funny. You have to know the person or have a high EQ before you go trying to body-hug people into comfort, obviously. I tend to think less about why somebody is crying and more about the fact that they are, and I want it to stop lol. I want everybody happy and problems solved. But that can’t happen dishonestly and it has to meet the person where they are at, in a way that helps everybody and the situation—which often means identifying why, anyways. I lived with my mom alone through high school. Probably odd timing for both of us. Before that, a handful of kids were babysat in our house for the first 10+ years of my life. Also, my dad worked from home—and when we weren’t the perfect family, mommy and daddy made each other cry a bit themselves (a lot). Among the regular surprises in life. Sometimes the best move is not to think about it. Maybe that’s more of the male default, anyhow. I like options.

I accepted many things this year: There are many people smarter than me I am not special I won't do anything important in life (something that will change the future of humanity) I won't do the things I want in life cause I wasn't born for them, my mental capacity isn't enough for the things I would enjoy if I had the mental capacity It will take many years to develop myself to find a girlfriend I can't be top at something, we are 8 billion and I am just one. I can't stand much pain and I am a coward: In short I am feminine in many aspects and traits There are people that are stronger, more beautiful, funnier than me. I am unnatractive at least for now. Don't confuse this with doing nothing. I still do art, workout, socialise and learning japanese, try to eat healthy. This is not about giving up. This is about moving forward without the pressure of things I can't control. This is about realism not pessimism. This is about radical acceptance that will reduce suffering. What are things you have accepted in life? Is acceptance the key to reduce suffering? I feel relieved that I accepted many things in life, but there is still some small part in my soul that I haven't accepted all of them completely. Should I go for radical acceptance and accept what I wrote fully or it's a wrong approach?

I agree
