  1. Past hour
  2. I wonder if I should become a Born Again Monogamist? BAM!
  3. Nice! That would be cool place to visit. Oklahoma USA, you need a car.
  4. @r0ckyreed I live in Amsterdam, it is more efficient with bike then with car. We are famous for it too.
  5. Oh yeah. Hell no. Used is better for sure 👍
  6. @r0ckyreed yeah in that case you could get a used car, I thought you wanted to buy a new one and waste a ton of money
  7. Lol. Do you just run everywhere? Or live in a city with public transportation? I live in a small college town, so a car is needed.
  8. From what I know of miracles they either happen at the last minute or not at all.
  9. Well, I know I’m a fast runner, but I need a car so I can drive places. I am prefer used cars over new.
  10. @r0ckyreed both those options prius and corolla are good. Reliable, cheap on gas especially the Prius for gas. But they do have batteries which can be expensive to replace in after 10-15 years
  11. @Jirh you can open indirectly if you are not attracted, just say some absurd shit like "You look like the cute rabbit from alice in wonderland" or even more indirectly "do you know where the Jackie Chan meet and greet is? It should be around here I think it was in a strip club, but I am not sure" And then just start teasing her.
  12. @Schizophonia number one financial advice, never buy liabilities, buy skills and assets instead. You buy a car for 30.000 euros or more and it is worth allot less after a few years. You buy an investment and you're 30k became 60k or in 2 decades 120k or you buy a skill that makes you money that you then can invest.
  13. Jesus is next to be "exposed" 😂😂😂 😂😂
  14. I want to build an awesome sober life. That might sound ironic because we often associate excitement with a highly stimulating lifestyle like parties, constant entertainment , things like travel, social media, and always having something happening. And for a while, it can feel exciting. Until it doesn’t. Modern life gives us endless opportunities for stimulation, but without boundaries, that abundance can quietly make us restless, and it’s the case for me.When everything is intense, ordinary life starts to feel boring. We become so used to chasing the next hit of excitement that we forget how fulfilling a calm, present life can be. I want something different. I want to enjoy things without being so attached to them. To be fully present. To wake up clear headed. To have experiences I actually remember. To create more than I consume. That’s an important distinction for me to contemplate and work on .
  15. I read some but always I found them disappointing, like some lacks. Krishnamurty, adyashanty, tolle. What most inspired me to look inward was this fragment that seems quite....not interesting, not so deep I sat on the bed to look out the large window directly in front of me, gazing at the lights reflecting off the narrow, muddy streets of that small town. I was thinking about the pleasure Charles Lamb found in the glow of streetlamps on wet cobblestones when, suddenly, a translucent, shimmering, blue-white mist hid that world—and my very experience of being there—from my sight. With the mist came an ineffable peace and joy (...). It is hard to describe an experience of being swept away into... into what? Something I had never read about, never pondered, and whose existence I had never even known—much as an unborn child cannot grasp a description of this world. The mist grew denser, and as it deepened, the knowledge, the comfort, the radiance, the peace—in a word, the ecstasy—deepened as well, until "I" seemed to be "That" and "That" seemed to be "I." We were mingled, blended, fused... I was pure consciousness, pure awakening; yet, when I came to, there was nothing to tell. While immersed, I existed within everything that has been, is, and will be; I realized then that while human beings measure space and time, nothing is truly "before" or "after"—everything is simultaneous; everything is simply *there*. Suddenly, the mist and the light vanished just as they had appeared. I was still sitting on my bed, clutching the sheet, eyes wide open, staring at the streetlights. My first thought was: "Good! Beneath it all lies this calm, this joy, this security..." Then, something curious happened to me. I looked out the window at the world, touched the furniture in my room, and said to myself: "How strange—this world is a shadow. I have touched the Real, that which is always 'there'; from now on, this entire world I once knew will be unreal. Why is it there? To experience what?" This fragment made me doing 5meo until frying my brain, also meditating a lot, I perceived the truth in this fragment.
  16. I pit this one here because is a fiction book, but at same time it explore the topic of Romaticizing the past and the video explain how the story can be used as a way to see Bias
  17. @Yimpa here's a picture of Elliot Smith with his hair photoshopped off. Who I think it looks like has nicer skin though.
  18. You said earlier you never followed a path as such. You really never read any spiritual books that influenced you in any way ?
  19. Today
  20. Theyre all still here so there might be something to that.
  21. @Yimpa lol a little bit
  22. I don't know all of them, but reading and listening them sound limited. Maybe one day I will think: ohh I was so confused, they were right . who knows?
  23. I like the Kia Forte I bought a few years ago.
