  1. Tip: Use Privacy.com for all sketchy online transactions, like porn sites, etc. This will keep your real card from being stolen or overcharged. It also elimates those pesky recurring subscriptions.
  2. The authority issue doesn't mean that your false beliefs and self-deceptions will change how reality functions. Rather, it means this: If reality contradicts your false beliefs, ultimately that will only reach your mind if you let it. Your authority is necessary to admit that your own view of the world was wrong. So authority comes into play when you finally admit to yourself: "My ideas about the vaccine were wrong." And until you do that you will stay lost in your own bubble of vaccine fantasy.
  3. Well, that requires a lot of contemplation and awakenings to appreciate. But for now you can Consciousness to be your entire visual field. Consciousness is an infinite and eternal field. It isn't divided into souls or anything else. You are the Creator and the Creation. Following the Bible will only make you more confused. Best to throw all that away and just focus on contemplating and exploring the nature of Consciousness in your direct experience. No one can tell you what Consciousness is, since you're directly experiencing it already. Rather than reading about red, if you want to understand red, just look at red.
  4. I will handle this.
  5. The truth is that Tinder works entirely off your photos. If your photos are good all you need to do is open with "Hey". And if your photos are bad nothing you say will work. Spend less time perfecting your opener and more time perfecting your photos. And if you don't have good looks don't bother with Tinder at all.
  6. I used to be very cheap (still am), so I understand this situation well. First, you have to understand his POV. If someone is that cheap it's probably for good reason. He probably has trauma around money in his past. Or he's being very cheap to save that money for some important higher goal, like starting a business or taking care of his parents. So it's good to ask him where his cheapness comes from and what positive function it serves in his mind. Try to understand the deep psychological reasons why he's cheap by talking about it with him. Second, in order to get him to change, you have to get him to see how being cheap can be positive but also negative when taken too far. He needs to see how cheapness backfires on him. Specific examples are necessary here. For example, cheapness could cost him his girlfriend. Cheapness can actually cost him more money in the long-term. Cheapness could strain his relationships. Cheapness could ruin his reputation. Etc. If he truly becomes aware of this, then he will be motivated to change his behavior. Thirdly, it's important for a man especially to see that part of what it means to be a good man is to be generous with your resources. A good man is generous and not too fearful about resources because he is confident he can earn more. So actually, cheapness detracts from being a strong man. This is a deep point which he is missing. Saving $4 on chocolate is not worth the hit he takes to his manhood. If he can see this, he will start to change. Something a man should aspire to is to become so abundant in resources that he never again has to worry about sharing them freely with loved ones. You can discuss all these things with him and see his reactions. If he has a lot of trauma around money he might be stubborn about seeing these deeper points I made, and he might need some years to see the light and start making corrections. The key thing for him to understand on this point is that it's not about money, it's about generosity. Generosity is worth more than money. The bottom line is that your BF is not conscious of all these subtle points, thus his cheapness continues.
  7. Of course you can make money doing that. Addiction recovery is a huge business with people makings tons of money from it. Addiction retreats and rehab centers are a huge business. This is a great LP if done properly.
  8. You can't save a man who doesn't want to be saved.
  9. No one man can teach you everything.
  10. The biggest danger is not from the chemical itself, it's from you getting so high that you lose control and do something reckless like jump out the window or slip and hit your head on a coffee table.
  11. Inhale deep and slow into empty lungs and hold as long as possible. That's all to the technique. Nothing in the mouth or throat will get you high. It only absorbs in the lungs.
  12. Empathy has a genetic and neurological component. Some people just have more empathy than others for those reasons.
  13. Empathy has a genetic and neurological component. Sme people just have more empathy than others for those reasons.
  14. Death is Infinity. That is the highest awakening.
  15. I only cook with stainless. It's easy.
  16. I am not aware of any such accusations against Chris.
