Of course it's not a good thing. It is becoming North Korea.

Green or Yellowish. Perhaps Orange. I don't know them well enough to be more precise.

I want someone to make an AI-generated song about slop. Call it The Slop song. It needs to be a deep, soulful song -- similar to Mad World -- about how slop is taking over the world.

@bazera That's a decent start, but needs fleshing out and more pathos. Thanks for sharing.

@UnbornTao If you are not careful you will turn into Brendon. I'm serious.

Yes

I am doing research for a new episode about how to avoid scammers, cheaters, exploiters, con-artists, etc. I would like to hear your stories about how you were conned or swindled in life. It could be financial, business, medical, relationship, etc. Could be something major or minor. Please keep your story concise. We don't need your entire life story. Also share what lesson you learned from this incident. And what is it about you that made you fall prey to this con?

I am aware of the theory. The music sorta ruins this clip.

No. I've been planning one but never released.

After a year of constant noise you would sleep in your car too.

By thinking about them from first principles, and my intuitive fitting together a lot of diverse facts. Intuition plays a big role. But also insight is happening as I contemplate stuff and piece facts together. Yes. I am working on a deep episode about understanding.

I updated the audios for iTunes, Spotify, and MP3 downloads. Everything is up to date now. Sorry for the slowness on that. I will try to keep it more up to date going forward.

I regard neuro-divergent as conditions like ADHD, Autism, Aspergers, bipolar, etc. That's usually what that word means.

I don't consider myself neuro-diverse so I am not in a position to spread that message. However, I do teach that minds are very different and that genetics is very important.

I don't know what it is you want me to do or change.

When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

You don't need to be neuro-divergent to be into niche things. Truth-seeking is niche, like yo-yoing.

You are obsessed with this neuro-divergence thing. Yes, Awakening discriminates against endless mental masturbation and conceptualizing.

You are free to chase your tail till you die. Doesn't bother God.

It is an honest signal. And also, it is the fruit. The process is not just for its own sake. The process has a purpose, which is God. The point is not to do endless philosophy, the point is to transcend all that and be with God. It is a ladder you climb to reach the roof. You are not climbing ladders just to climb ladders for the rest of your life.

You can't transcend Truth.

Self-deception is a great hobby.

@Judy2 For you:

Epistemology is about truth. And Truth is God. So the best measure of the quality of your epistemology is how well do you know God? Atheists do not have good epistemology.

Let all take a moment to cry for the tax evaders.
