The simple solution is to focus on one or the other, not both at once. There's a time in life to socialize and screw, and there's a time to sit in a cave and meditate. -
Soon I don't know what I would talk about with him. He's got weird interest in topics and internet drama. Wasn't he banned?

I never said it couldn't. -

It could not be more simple and clear: Awakening is consciousness that you are God. -

It's not just men, but men's sex drive is way beyond what women can imagine or understand. Which is why women get upset at men for treating them as sexual objects. If women had the sex drive of men you would treat men like sexual objects too. Women underestimate man's sex drive because they judge it using their own. Men need that higher sex drive in order to do the work it takes to hunt for women. A highly suspect claim. -

What about disgrace? Can hit you too. -

If you don't think sex distracts men from awakening you are living in crazytown. I read about a European monk who was born and lived 80 years in a monastary and never once in his life saw a woman. Meanwhile we got dudes jerking off to AI porn every 45 minutes. -

Yeah, but were they married/kids before or after their enlightenments? -

@manuel bon You can record your own guided audio. -

I only see 3 options: 1) Genetics 2) Past life stuff 3) Environmental stuff And I don't buy into past life stuff. -

Sure, but you should learn to do it independently of my video. You don't want to limit yourself by my words. -

Yeah, that was a good interview performance by Cenk. Cenk's heart is in the right place. But he is delusional in some of his leftist ideals, like when he runs for office, it's just cringe. He's got a bad case of leftist ego. -
If the market crashes, all the blue chip will crash too. Today's top blue chips are all Big Tech companies. And they will drag everything down if the AI bubble bursts. With that said, I am not saying you should sell. You can play the long-game and just stay vested indefinitely.

Don't forget that just a few months ago Licthman was arguing that Biden should not be criticized or replaced. So excuse me if I don't take him seriously. Without Kamala we would be in deep shit right now.

Congrats! Keep exploring and contemplating. There's more goodness to discover.

The point is that none of your efforts would have mattered if you were born a chimpanzee. I didn't say intelligence is 100% genetic. Science says intelligence is about 60% genetic and the rest is environmental. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heritability_of_IQ Stop thinking of this issue as either or. It's both. You need the right genetic foundation and then you need to take massive action on top of that to reach success. This is true for all human achievement, including spirituality. -
@Nilsi There is a problem in that we have a big difference between "postmodernism" as a broad idea in our culture vs the actual technical philosophical work of specific post-modern philosophers. There is a disconnect in how to summarize the work of all these PM thinkers into a cohesive thing. Most of the so-called post-modern philosophers like Derrida would not even regard or call themselves postmodernist. PM has become a sort of gross abstraction, made all the worse by right-wing renditions of it. The challenge with this topic is that if you get really technical and scholarly with it, there's not even going to be a "postmodernism" at the end of the day. Yet people still talk about the postmodern era. Laymen and right-wingers still speak of postmodernism as an ideological movement or broad attitude. That's what my videos are focused on addressing, not the individual works of Derrida or whoever. The point of my video is not to present a lecture on the history of philosophy but to help the mind make sense of important epistemic insights that modernism and premodernism misses. Making a video about the techncial arguments of Derrida or Deleuze is just not useful to our work. No one but philosophy nerds cares about that and it will not be applicable in everyday life. Even my video is already quite disconnected for most from daily application. This is one of the problems I have with academic philosophy: it may be scholarly rigorous, but it has zero application in real life. Nothing is actually made sense of. It's just the parroting of ideas some dead guy has said. You can have perfect technical knowledge of Derrida and it will get you nowhere, but you will waste several years of your life to achieve it.

Good analysis from Vlad:

Not as subjective as you conveniently wish. -
You guys are all here for the drama. No AI can shoot that drama into your online addict veins!

@zurew I don't see what's confusing about what I said. -

Of course everything is a construct of Mind At Large. Genetics is a relative notion in our relative "material" world. -
God cheated me. That asshole.
