I have said nothing against their truthfulness. My health does not allow me to use psychedelics any more. But my health situation is pretty unique, so you should not draw too many conclusions from that.

Insane ambition and seriousness. The idea of quitting never even entered my mind. That's how a serious person approaches life. I have done 1000+ approaches without getting laid. 400 approaches is nothing. You can do 400 approaches in 2 months.

Both things are true: genetics matter, but also you have a lot of development work to do to actualize and max out your genetics. You are underestimating just how much can be accomplished through the right kind of labor. The reality is that most people are far too lazy to do the work necessary to become massively successful. It's not that you can't, but that you don't have enough ambition and seriousness to even make a serious attempt. If you knew how hard I worked to get better with girls you would cry and quit out of disgust. The people who succeed in big ways are just willing to endure that kind of labor and failure, whereas most people are not. Today's generation is weak and spoiled. They seriously underestimate the labor it takes to achieve anything meaningful. You expect and even demand meaningful things for free. For example, you expect beautiful women for free. You have no understanding of the worth of things and the seriousness of life.

That's what they are, but that doesn't mean it's good for your health. You guys make a lot of such simplistic assumptions.

Psychedelics affect people too differently to make an universal claims here. The bottomline is that you don't know how they will affect your health, so you should be careful. You don't know how much your body can take. One day it might fail.

Nah

Don't like how it looks, don't like the world. No interest in playing in that world.

It's just not enjoyable. A bunch of aimless wandering and content spread too thin and overly grindy. I found Bloodborne mediocre. Couldn't finish it. Sekiro can't bring myself to play.

Yes. It's just a question of how much your body can handle, which no one can tell you.

What exactly is it that you believe?

Pretty obvious not to do that. You might as well cuddle a crocodile.

University academics are the prey. The university is the predator.

No. It's has too much thinly spread, filler content. It's not tight like Dark Souls. Rainworld is not a skills issue. Rainworld is just a shitty gameplay experience. A cool world does not make the gameplay good.

Use a better company.

Ally, AmEx, and Discover are some of the best. They all offer about 4% now.

Elden Ring was a disappointment. No desire buy DLC for it.

What's wrong if your girlfriend sleeps around with a bunch of people besides you?

It means nothing because you are not conscious of what is being talked about.

Academic philosophy is a very specific kind of game. If you wish to play that game and be accepted by others who play that game, then yes, you need to study the historical work. What is it you seek? Truth? Understanding? Consciousness? Love? You can get all those much better by not playing academic philosophy. In the end, no academic philosopher understands reality. I recommend you get your priorities straight and focus on what truly matters, not some human-invented scheme. You will be dead soon. Life is too short to waste it in mental masturbation.

Socializing is so easy once you gain some experience and overcome your own BS. Like really, why would socializing be hard or anxious? People do it for fun. It's like playing a videogame. You just built it up as something hard in your mind when really it's one of the easist things in the world. Truly, social anxiety is the biggest load of BS. It's as silly as being anxious for walking out of your house.

There's no need to guess. We'll see what the polls say a month before the election. There's plenty of time until then for things to move around. It's gonna be close either way I think.

1) You are not properly understanding those teachers and teachings. 2) Understanding is not just conceptual, it comes with a change in your state of consciousness. How can you be awake and not understand the ultimate nature of reality? The two go hand in hand. To realize God is to understand the ultimate nature of existence. Consciousness has the ability to comprehend itself. When this comprehension rises high enough it becomes awakening. Yes it can, by itself becoming infinite. Your finite mind is just infinite mind which is half asleep. Awakening turns finite mind into infinite mind. You will still exist and your mind will still exist. There's a long way to go before death. There are many degrees of self-comprehension and you don't need the highest degree to experience awakening.

Go talk to girl.

Makes no difference. Keep going out and learning to socialize.
