Oh, ho-ho! No way Rupblicans will go for that. This would nearly kill their ability to hold power.

One crime does not justify another. Vigilante mob justice by buffoons quickly backfires and becomes injustice. Indeed, let's shut down hedge fund manipulations.

A) Girls are naturally flaky and detached until sex. This is their advantage in the game. The advantage is quickly lost after sex. B) Find more girls, not all of them will be passionate about you.

That's more of a spiritual drive for truth or a seeking to escape suffering. I have always had high ambition. Since I was a little kid. I didn't choose it, it chose me. For me it comes from a place of deep Love, but it is clouded by egoic impurities, fears, bad habits, biases, weaknesses, etc. I care about having an impact because I want my life to be meaningful, and that is done by making the world a better place. I enjoy being highly creative. It's a spiritual enjoyment.

Of course manipulation of markets is going to be regulated. It always has been because markets cannot survive otherwise. The desire to see markets go unregulated so that they can be manipulated by peasant buffoons as vengeance against Wall Street capitalists is not wise. It will backfire on society. Those same mechanisms will get hijacked by Wall Street execs very shortly. As tempting as it is, treating Wall Street as some evil or devil will not solve our problems. It's just more of the same culture war stuff that has us chasing our tails. Don't forget, your grandma has her retirement savings on Wall Street. And the ones who will end up fucked in this game are not the execs but the peasants. All forms of market manipulation must be cracked down on, be it peasant or elite.

Deleting all social media is not a solution to these problems. You might as well literally stick your head in the sand while you're at it.

The LP Course is for ambitious people who are confused or lost, or want to upgrade their ambitions. But also the LP Course is about more than pure ambition. @Nicachi I'm not saying you gotta leave him. I'm saying this: On a scale of 1-10, how important is it to you that your man is ambiitous? On a scale of 1-10, what is the lowest level of ambition in a man you are willing to accept? On a scale of 1-10, how much ambition does your man have? On a scale of 1-10, how open and serious is your man about growing and developing himself? There's your answer.

@Karmadhi Of course commitent to a relationship is important. Which is why you must screen so hard up front. Before you get into a relationship you must decide what you want in a partner. In this case, on a scale of 1 to 10, how ambitious do you want him to be? And what is the lowest you're willing to accept? Once you're already attached to a person it's like you are stuck waist deep in quicksand, you can't think straight.

Feeling love is not neceessary for love to be. 99.99% of love goes unfelt. A human can only feel so much of it.

This is it in a nutshell. It's a lot simpler than you think:

@Nicachi I would never wait on someone to develop it. Don't wait on people to change. Plan your life like they will not change.

Creative power flows on the toilet as well Go luck being here without poo. 4 billion years of poo has lead life to launch rockets to the moon, and poo on the moon. The magic of the Universe is that no part could exist without all the other parts. Ta-da! A perfect harmony. Try to pluck out any thread in the tapestry and you pull all the others.

That's a valuable lesson.

Well, if that's true, the ultimate rule in game is this: not everything will make sense. Sometimes a girl is just acting dumb and deserves no further analysis. Don't take too much bullshit from girls. If they are acting weird, move on to the next who will appreciate what you got to offer. Your attitude should be like this: if this girl is not excited to be in my presence, she doesn't deserve what I got. Not everything in game is your fault. Have standards. One of my standards is that the girl should be excited about being with me.

@kras Dude, she clearly wants to fuck you, she's just shy and uncomfortable. You are the man! It is your job to make her feel comfortable. This situation could have been avoided with proper kino escalation. Google kino escalation ladder and follow it next time. You need to get her comfortable with your touch from the first second you meet up with her, otherwise things will get uncomfortable. You also need to charm her with humor, music, etc. And don't give up after one rejected kiss. Just butter her up some more and try the kiss again in 5 minutes. Also, you need to bounce her around to multiple locations. The more locations the better. Don't close at the same location you meet and date.

@Recursoinominado It all depends on how you definite your terms, since they are relative. If you define "mind" as something dual and finite, then by your own definition there will be stuff outside it that controls it. If you define "mind" as Infinite Mind, then it's is One and nondual and self-governing. Controller vs controlled is a duality. When you say, "we are using the mind", what is this magical "we"? Realize that this "we" IS your own Mind! Mind controls itself like this: Infinite Mind imagines something that it calls "not-mind" and then proceeds to say that that thing caused the mind. Which is like pretending your tail isn't yours but someone else's, so you could enjoy eating it.

Don't steal my pickup lines!

It's the perfect example, as it reveals how deeply our biases run. Why does a child have more value, beauty, and magic than a turd? Think about it.

Isn't it interesting how nobody says it's magical when you create a turd? Yet the only one who can create turds is God

@cle103 If you finish a formal art degree you should not have difficulty finding art jobs. Good digital artists will always be in high demand. There is a huge market for pro digital artists: https://www.behance.net You should be able to comfortably support yourself if you just build up enough skills and a killer portfolio. And formal art training is valuable to have, so it won't be a waste of time if you actually want to do serious art. If you can get free art training, that's a great option. Just make sure the art training is in some marketable form of art. Digital is the way.

@cle103 Can't survive without sales of something. So might as well bite that bullet now. Don't put it off. Your art has to be profitable.

I don't think Trump's family has a chance. Daddy Trump or bust. The problem for all con-men is that it's hard to run the same con twice. And they don't know any other kind of con but the one they ran. Con-men always need new marks. But you can't do that when you're conning all of America.

A Sarah Palin style nitwit is also a possibility. It has to be someone with charisma and that simpleton charm. If they want to win.

I meant that in a more conventional, relative sense. As in, if you want to be an artist you can create whatever art you want (within reason). Here you're talking about the absolute domain. In the absolute domain You/God are creating everything you see. But the human vehicle is not conscious enough to know how this is happening. So practically the ego-you cannot change physical reality willy-nilly. There are higher orders and forces at play that you cannot control as a human. It's like a video game. When a game designer plays his own video game, he is limited by his own creation. But if he logs out of the game he has the tools to change the game in any way imaginable. But as long as he's in the game playing the game, he must play by the rules him himself established earlier. But this thread is not about the absolute domain, so don't confuse things. I was not talking about the absolute here.

Ted Cruz is scummy enough. Mitt Romney is too principled. His own base will eat him alive. You need someone scummy, shameless, and lizard-like. Someone with zero integrity -- a solid partisan scumbag Cruz, Tucker, Hannity, Hawley, Cotton...
