  1. 1) It wasn't a script, it's just what a normal person would naturally say in that situation. 2) Anxiety is normal when approaching a stranger and facing rejection.
  2. What's gonna with Twitter is Musk will blow a bunch of hot air about free speech, but then reality will set it for him and he will be forced to return to the moderation policies which all major platforms have, because they are just good for business. And so this whole saga will just drama over nothing. It's gonna take Musk a few years to learn all these lessons publically and reinvent the wheel. Meanwhile a bunch of stupidity and cringe will happen.
  3. Do you know how difficult it is to host streaming videos?
  4. Excellent! At least someone here is doing the work.
  5. Yes by definition. No one said self-actualization is easy or comfortable.
  6. What blows my mind is that a single Dollar store exists.
  7. It will happen once in a blue moon. First girl I ever went on a date with worked at my gym and she started flirting with me after one of my workouts. Don't forget, girls can get crushes too. P.S. It isn't gamey, it's just an honest, natural approach. Good game mirrors natural mating patterns.
  8. I don't trust nor distrust them. I am just looking at what I've seen of Putin.
  9. It works so no solution necessary. Servers crash. Nothing new.
  10. The rumors are very well founded from what I've seen.
  11. No, it's not related. Just a crash. They happen every few months. The forum database file has grown massive and very complex over the years. I'm amazed it works at all.
  12. Japanese breakfast is so weird.
  13. You can find unique gifts in Etsy. Like this: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1250653480/handcrafted-engine-fidget-spinner
  14. One of those rare tabloid stories that turned out true. And a broken clock is right twice a day.
  15. Database crashed. We are lucky we didn't loss any data.
  16. We had such a system in the early days and it was removed because it becomes a game of chasing likes. I deliberately keep Actualized.org pared down and simple. So you don't get distracted. I could have turned Actualized.org into a well-oiled business machine. I deliberately said No to that. Which is why we don't have the slickest interfaces and all that kind of stuff.
  17. Kanye does have an intuitive understanding of God. Conor Murphy understood God too. It's just that his narcissism and horrible politics distorts it all. Kanye fell down some right-wing internet conspiracy theory rabbit hole. Which is exactly the kind of epistemic traps I've been warning you guys about for years now. Self-bias. That's what it all boils down to. And being an epic narcissist just makes the problem 10x worse. The worst thing about being a narcissist is that you cannot see reality accurately. The more selfish you are, the less accurate will be your view of reality.
  18. Biggest downside is simply the waste of time. All the time people use to socialize could be used to launch a business.
  19. I'm not endorsing it, I'm saying IF you want to go down that road. Of course there's plenty good in Buddhist practice that most people would benefit from.
  20. His mistake was simply taking Kanye seriously. Kanye is a clown and should be treated as such. Everything is Love. Including all your trolling antics. Not my problem if you cannot understand that. The difference is, I don't go around supporting racism nor pedophilia. As far as seeking undeserved attention, you have more experience there than me. If the things I say strike you as nonsensical, perhaps it's because you lack the desire and intelligence to understand them. It has yet to sink in with you that I say advanced things which will take you years to fathom.
  21. In my experience sugar craving doesn't really go away. I've gone 3+ months without any sugar, and I still had cravings. I think the human body just craves sugar. The cravings become manageable after 3-6 months. The best solution is to indulge in healthy sugar via fruits/juice, rather than processed desserts. I found that I can indulge in a a shot glass of fruit juice after a meal and that mostly satisfies my sugar cravings without adding meaningful calories and any harm. The key is just to avoid processes desserts. Sugar is unlike a drug in that your body expects some amount of it naturally in your diet. The question is what form will it come in?
  22. Strange that younger ones believe more in God. Doesn't seem right.
  23. Fix your career, finances, relationships, sex-life, social-life, fitness, diet, family life, home. Once you have all that sorted out, you'll be ready for Buddhism.
  24. If Tate appeals to you then you're not ready for Buddhism, you need to complete 10-20 years of basic personal development. Which is honestly what most people are missing. Be clear with yourself what stage of development you're at. This is why I taught you developmental psychology.
