Well, most people are zombies. I remember 9/11 crystal clear. I don't need no rationalist scientists gaslighting me about my memories. My memories are sharper than their science.

Surprises? What do you want, a monkey screaming in the middle of a song?

Yeah, it's few. Less than 10% globally. Mild Green is pretty common but solid deep Green is much rarer. Much of that mild Green is just cultural conformity.

New music thread here:

You strawman my music as having one emotion. Then you act puzzled.

You can jerk each other off about how deep y'all are and have your climax in a new thread.

Please start a new thread for discussing musical taste and styles.

"I'm too deep for your music." Yo, get the fuck outta here.

My God dude. You are like a broken record with this neuro-diversity stuff. I'm serious, you are falling into self-deception with sloppy epistemology. It you keep insisting on this you will end up with a very wrong worldview. This isn't a joke any more.

Sorry, I don't buy it. My memories are very accurate and they don't change.

Should work now. Let me know if it doesn't.

Should work now. Let me know if it doesn't.

I'm working on it.

He has some wise ideas. But gotta think everything through critically.

Welcome back.

I am designing a new kind of psychedelic group retreat. It is fully legal and will be held in Las Vegas. The purpose is not for fun but to do serious God-Realization with guidance from me. This is an experimental thing which is still in the planning stages. Who is interested?

You are an angel.

That is called death. This goes so deep that you are imagining time, past, and "how long". If God doesn't imagine it, there exists nothing. Not even time or a past. When you ask: What was I in a past life? God has to invent something, otherwise there is nothing. Could God imagine that you were Cleopatra in a past life? Sure. Is it really true? True becomes whatever God imagine deeply enough to convince itself. God could dream up such a scenario if it wanted to. But maybe it doesn't want to. Yes, possible. But that wouldn't be anything like human life. That would more like a dream.

I have never done oral with a condom. That sounds ridiculous.

Condoms are a huge problem for me. The sex is just not good with them. And without them the risk is not worth the pleasure. Jerking off is better than condom sex.

All Mods will be replaced with my swarm of AI girlfriends.

Cheers!

Thanks for reporting the issue. I'm aware of it now and working to resolve it. Should be fixed within a few days.

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.

It's better than any other manual method. I will at some point. These two things don't combine. You can do both, but it's not a combination.
