Not 40 yet but I don't feel that way at least for myself, also I don't care if others think themselves unnatractive. For women it's 40 after that they don't click with me biologically. I hope there is no paradox in what I just wrote.

I feel like people who feel the need to really point out the importance of these things is because they dont genuinely want to do it bad enough for themselves. Also you won’t look better than the healthiest version of yourself and that includes health on all levels meaning also inner state. Rest is just modifications and enhancement . So actually “looks-maxing” in its basis is quite natural and healthy

Once I thought that I got pregnant a girl that I use to have sex sometimes and who was very Christian and never would have an abortion and that night I awake and I said absolutely seriously: god, if I can choose if she's pregnant of I die, please, kill me exactly right now. After that I never consider have sex with a girl who I don't respect as a human and I can be at least not horrified if she's pregnant. We trivialize sex as if it were a game, and that demonstrates our immaturity and profound stupidity.

Sketch that a mysterious woman drew of me while contemplating life at the Austin Central Library last year. She handed it to me and then left.

You can work on your look. But it is a balance though. You have to be conscious of what you are doing. We are all concerned with our look.

E X A C T L Y excellent lesson, glad to be of assistance 😃 -
@Joseph Maynor probably because you cant max out your looks the whole idea dosent make sense. Eventually you take away things that made you special and unique to fit a clown idea of what it is. If you define yourself as a looksmaxxer you already fked yourself. Its not achievable. And the idea leave you feeling like you need too. You end up in a situation where if you dont do it you aren't looksmaxxing and if you do you take the chance to fk it up.

The heart of politics is you need more than one to agree on something. That is the social contract. -
@AtmanIsBrahman I am saying it genuinely appears you are assuming others don't know looks effect how others perceive you. Do you think emphasising this is for the good? What could it be achieving that is negative? What positive? What do you think are long term issues?

@UnbornTao It is a short book. He is not a philosopher, more like a scientist touching the shallow end of the pool of philosophy. When I was an engineering student in university, this book was part of my transition to philosophy. It is a brief book, almost 100 pages.

Not sure what you mean. If you’re saying it’s better to stay in not knowing about whether looks or game is better, that’s fair, but my point is more about taking the looks part seriously as they aren’t mutually exclusive. The balance could be 65% game and 35% looks and it would still be worth paying attention to looks.

Colored contacts are good. Blue often works well, though you have to make sure it looks natural. Gym is good for sex appeal.

She is my long distance girlfriend. When I get my career in order, either she will come to America to live with me, or more likely I will go to live with her. -
@Nick_98 I think it’s important to mention Leo doesn’t bash science entirely. He bashes its limitations.

Change your approach. Instead of focusing on whether the girl you're talking to likes you, focus on evaluating whether you like her. Stop idealizing women just because they're hot. Look through the social mask and truly understand where she's operating from. Having sex with a model with a perfect body who can only admire herself in the mirror is boring and even humiliating. You might feel like a winner because of it, but it just means you're an idiot. Stop being an idiot, and the women will come.

Yeah, same. I've been meaning to read that. What was your main takeaway, if you recall?

@Wilhelm44 this wasn't a cult, Carl is just dramatic. @Carl-Richard that scenario is pretty common in new-age spiritual communities that use drugs, it's toxic and exploitive but not what rises to what i would call a cult. I think cults have an exceptional amount of manipulation and control over it's members. Apology revoked. How about this for a red herring, did you ever suspect nahm of being schizotypal?

What is weird is when people think they are improving their look but it actually makes them look worse.
-
From my experience in the real world. Looks are vastly overrated (probably not here), especially for men. Met plenty of not so good looking men doing well and plenty of conventionally attractive men who did quite poorly.

To be honest, I don't think this whole "people are stupid, therefore democracy sucks" trope is valid anymore, at least not for me. Very smartass, reddity thing to claim. Stupidity when it comes to governing a society, is just your subjective point of view, and you are also just a mere human. Pretending like you are above this all, for me is foolish - Today

@Basman I see your point and respectfully disagree. From my pov, religion is not about improving life, it's not even about life itself. It's about abandoning life for the afterlife (Abrahamic), or some samadhi state (Eastern), or something else. All the practices are motivated by a desire to "win" something immaterial, typically spiritual but it could be egoic too. It's the opposite of self-help because self-help is mostly a material endeavor for material gains, although spirituality slipped into self-help as means to improve mental health. But the same material motivation sits underneath. Better mental health, for a better life not a better afterlife. They are not just different styles (stick vs. carrot) like you outlined. They are polar opposites. Like you can't possibly do both at the same time. You can't combine them. Not because they're time-incompatible, but because they're actually antithetical to each other.

I already developed a game as a task for a client before AI existed, but I have used AI for this project. Also, I just ran IG ads today to see who would like the game.
