Even the small studios who made Disco Elysium and Subnautica went to shit.

Hey, ya'll, I need your help! I want to create a comprehensive list of video examples of prototypical stage Orange thinking. This is not meant to humiliate or demonize stage Orange. It's meant to be an educational tool for people learning about Spiral Dynamics. So towards that end, scour Youtube and find all the videos you can which exhibit stage Orange thinking. Try to find videos which are short and sweet. The more diversity we can display here, the better. Try to find examples from various cultures: Europe, Middle East, Asia, Indonesia, Japan, Russia, Africa, South America, etc. We will create a mega-thread like this for every stage in the Spiral, from Red to Turquoise. But here, let's just focus on Orange. Each week I will start a new mega-thread topic for the next stage. Do not start a political debate in this thread! It is not our goal here to defend our personal political positions or to judge any stage, but simply to compile examples. Thanks for your help! I'm excited to see what kind of juicy stuff you dig up. Try to be selective with your choices. This can turn into a really cool list.

@Shakazulu Wishing you a full recovery.

Corpo can still have real creativity, it is just subservient to corrupt interests and it will be slowly squeezed to death over time. It can take 10+ years for a studio to slowly die out. Like BioWare and Blizzard and Bungie.

Probably not all of Epstein's friends were pedophiles. Epstein seems like he networked with thousands of people in order to build an elite social circle. Doesn't mean all those people were pedos. If Epstein worked for intel agencies, as seems the case, then it makes sense for him to have a large network of social connections for intel purposes.

Is it similar at all to ketamine? Define psychedelic: Increased consciousness Hallucinations

Mostly BS. Shamans need a way to rationalize to themselves why they aren't taking pure chemicals. So they romanticisize it.

Yeah, nothing will rob you of your spiritual fantasies faster than loss of health. You can do everything right and then a brick falls on your head as you're walking down the street and all your spirituality is wiped to zero.

Nah. They have gone full corpo.

Is it psychedelic?

Hand-selected from lists of thousands of tunes. The best of the best.

Lol

Don't know

The most important employee Bethesda lost was Michael Kirkbride. Morrowind is what it is because of his creativity.

If Owen has an abundance mindset then surely there is no scarcity for his products and services, right? There is no need to act like his pickup teachings are about to expire. A subtle example of how business corrupts the integrity of one's mind.

Obviously no. Bethesda is a zombie company. She looks like your mother but she ain't no longer your mother. Time to shoot her in the head.

You can't measure if something is giving your cancer or whatever. What those scientists measure is not equal to health.

Like 30 mins before. I suggest drinking pure ginger tea. You can buy on Amazon. Ginger tea is quick and easy to consume. This is not necessary, but if you have nusea issues then this can help.

I am recording tomorrow.

Nice example of double standards. Where is his abundance mindset?

Sure, but it might have the opposite effect. It is not at all clear that taking 50 supplements per day is doing more good than harm.

I shared all my sources with you on the blog and book list. The rest is just good use of intuition.

Fasting is not necessary. Just don't eat for a few hours prior. There's not one place. Much of it is my own experimentation. But you can do a lot of basic research on Reddit, Erowid, DMT Nexus, the BlueLight forum, and Psychonaut Wiki. Just google for what you need. All answers exist on Google if you just aren't lazy to search deeply.

Yeah, I would bet he will never have the balls to do that. His ego is too addicted to the thrill he gets from running RSD.

I am deep into work on a new course which will be out in 2-3 months. Topic of the course is: How To Program Your Subconscious Mind. It is very focused on practical exercises and not so much theory. I'm excited about finally releasing it so I wanted to build up a bit of hype around it. It will be a very powerful tool for you guys in your application of all the self-help theory and for creating success in all domains of life.
