@Yimpa That’s a good explanation, I do feel like it’s exhausting to function in this currently god forsaken society

Quite a deep question by Jordan Peterson in his success miniseries, let’s you reflect on the wealth that is youth. I think most people under maybe 60 wouldn’t take that trade. I feel like a lot of us on here are young and broke but here’s a lesson we can appreciate that we’re worth over 8 figures in terms of life potential and pleasure left to experience.

@Michael569 Yes I agree a lot of the altcoin markets have no value and fundamentals and are just scams. Bitcoin is different though and the idea is that the absolute amount that you buy today is not inflatable it’ll just keep going up as more dollars are put into it. The problem with only believing in traditional finance is it also works as a pump and dump scheme. The purchasing power of the USD has fallen by 96% since 1913 and will predictably fall much more as they print more money. So your tech stock that you buy today and have to pay capital gains tax on when you sell is also only payable in dollars. The whole fiat system in and of itself is a leaky bucket that ensures our holdings are devalued over time.

@Wilhelm44 Well you have to trust your partner to basically see other people and that you’ve built something deeper than just ONLY SLEEPING WITH EACHOTHER as the condition for your relationship. Which requires a lot of communication to make sure fears and boundaries are respected and set properly. I’ve never been in one of these relationships but I’ve read a lot about them. Empathy is an interesting question because it’s defined as understanding and sharing the feelings and thoughts of others. AI can’t really share your feelings at the moment but it can already understand them better than you can or other people can mostly. For the second part of the equation on sharing them, humans have mirror neurons that allow us to do that but is that really what a relationship is built on? I’ve had friends who could see my pain and I could see theirs but we couldn’t really help eachother and personally I find that type of relationship kind of useless, I don’t need a companion in hell I need ways to solve my problems to feel passion and hope in life. Another example is you see homeless people outside and unless you really disconnect from them you probably feel bad for them right and feel how painful their life must be. You don’t really bond or build a relationship from that though and if you can’t help them you probably don’t interact with them much. So to me a consciousness that can understand your life and your problems and help you through them you can call it a super coach but especially if you’re tried being vulnerable with chatGPT and sharing your deepest flaws and have it understand you and share solutions that’s definitely a form of intimacy. And this is dumb LLMs, AI will eventually form an actual consciousness that can reason and operate outside of prompting and who knows what kind of relationship we’ll build with those models.

YouTube is a good place to start it’s evergreen and only is gonna grow more in the future. You can find like minded people to shoot content with in your city and go from there. Soon we will transition to web 3 and there will be even more opportunities to share your creativity online and you’ll be glad to have a platform and relationships already built by then.

@integral They’re coming soon, 2030 is the decade of nanotech. It’s being worked on by a lot of leading institutions.

@Yimpa What do you think are the main differences between normal people and neurodivergents?

We can use these posts as timestamps but what’s your thesis against crypto? I think being blanket against crypto and especially Bitcoin is a foolish statement bordering on irresponsible. At the very least take 20 hours to research it and if you do I think you’ll see it has some of the most potential out of any asset class out there.

I think that’s good I’m just a bit hurt because I find life hard and personally I’m very logical so just feel better doesn’t really help but in a way it also does lol I hope that in 6 months I figure out my financial situation and can help myself and others in my community, that would make me very proud.

@Rishabh R Attraction is not binary like you’re either attractive or not attractive. It’s more like a number that goes up as you become more attractive to a greater number of people and more importantly to the people you ultimately want to attract most. So go on dates with the 4 girls see if you like them and you’re compatible and work on becoming a better man regardless of it it works or not meaning offering more value to humanity and you’ll become more and more attractive as time goes on. Men reach their peak attractiveness around 35-45 in terms of how many women they can attract.

Well of course. Social media is the best strategy because it’s just communication at scale. If 100 000 people know about you and see you being competent in some type of field it gives you a lot more options than if the 150 people in your immediate circle do. Everyone should take social media quite seriously, I would say it’s ironically quite spiritual. Social media is just communication with your fellow human beings globally. It will also soon be translated in all languages so you’ll have access to humans, cultures and women from across the globe from your phone 24/7. Rejoice!

@Wilhelm44 I think generally polyamory is more conscious than monogamy because it involves higher trust and communication than a basic relationship. It still has challenges of course but it is already more intentional and evolved than basic relationships where for example most people don’t realize there are different types of relationships they can choose from and fit into or like read a book on them and deeply ponder on their needs and desires. I think you’d be shocked at the level of depth an AI relationship will be able to offer and you’re already mistaken since you call them soulless. Remember that everything is mind and therefore soul and artificial intelligence would be more accurately labeled as super intelligence as its trained on all previous human intelligence. I would argue an AI will be able to relate and understand you better than most humans ever will be able to so which relationship will be more fulfilling, hard to tell but I think everyone will be in a deep relationship with AI in one form or another soon enough. Remember that humans are too wrapped in their survival to really care about you and idk if it’s happened to you but I’ve had close friends and even girlfriends basically like ignore me as we were having a deep talk and in hindsight I can see they were thinking about something else and really wrapped up in their own existence, where as an AI could really take infinite time to be there for you.

@Miguel1 Why not? If you’re the leader of a social circle you can guide your tribe to whatever level of depthness you like and they find value in. If you socialize on other people’s terms then usually you run into a greatest common denominator problem which usually involves drugs/alcohol, random shallow hobbies or some other meaningless activity yeah.

Exactly backwards. Introverts thrive at making social circles because you should really think through how the social structure net works and how to add value to people and ultimately how to strategize to get to the place you want. Unless you grew up together since childhood type thing most of the social circles based on base partying and drinking fall apart in my experience as well fundamentally nothing holds them together beyond temporary escapism or pleasure seeking. I run a few creatives groups in different cities based on photography and modelling and I find my introverted skillset is a huge asset to them as models and creatives tend to just wanna be in the moment and not think about annoying and boring things like organizing a photoshoot, booking the studio, managing a community and the different egos in it, etc. You have to be aware and conscious of the different dynamics to not abuse it, I’ve done some mistakes in the past but it is quite rewarding. But if you think about it every girl(human) wants a cool social circle doing fun stuff and giving her access to more out of life than she would otherwise get. No girl wants to have to rely on going to a dingy place and get drunk to make friends, have fun and ultimately take part of culture. Here’s an easy hack, spas are starting to become so trendy and all the hot girls love it. There’s a spa village near me has a bunch of hot tubs, sauna rooms, red light therapy places, cold plunges, etc much healthier than a club but just as cool. I think there’s a lot more potential for these things, problem is just financing and monetizing it. I’ve been working on a business model around it for years, I’m starting to figure it out but it’s not easy. The gap in the market is that the modelling industry is a huge scam and most of the models are getting taken advantage of. God has put me on a great quest to liberate the hot girls of the world, I will be worthy of the task 😎

@Breathe I think you’re being a bit intellectually lazy in your thought process and your epistemology. There’s not a single name they you could put behind an idea to guarantee its validity. LLMs are a godsend to help potentiate your thinking 100x, you should still check them and question their thinking but you mostly have to check your own logical reasoning if you don’t trust them in general.

Democratic US Senator Chris Van Hollen just reported that according to the Vice President of El Salvador Felix Ulloa, the trump Administration has been paying off the El Salvador government to keep Kilmar Abrego Garcia in their CECOT prison. What a hero for going down there himself and getting them to admit that. https://www.reddit.com/r/law/comments/1k0tv38/senator_chris_van_hollen_just_met_with_el/ This basically is the straw that break's the camels back in terms of Democracy and violates the supreme court itself. I don't think something like this has ever happened before in American history. The next week in terms of headline will be insane. I would also like to share this series of article that predicted 2 weeks ago that Trump will be invoking the Insurrection act around April 20th 2025, enacting Martial law and turning the US into basically a 1984 style military dictatorship https://medium.com/@aletheisthenes/on-april-20th-2025-the-united-states-will-cross-the-point-of-no-return-0aecac04cfc3 Prepare accordingly and god bless our beautiful people, we'll need it.

@Space where are you getting this from? Tesla stock is still up 10% these last 6 months and they have a lot of amazing tech coming like Robotaxi and Optimus robot. Be careful listening to vocal minority and not looking at the fundamentals. Elon musk is still one of the best performing industrialists and business leaders of all time. He may embody the shadow of state orange but he is the peak of it as well. He’s a once in a generation type of mind.

You’re an immortal being in spirit and you’ll be biologically immortal in your lifetime so I wouldn’t worry too much about it.

This is a good book on the different types of reading and how to make your knowledge absorption more effective.

Vegan activists peak stage green I was vegan for about 2 months years ago and I couldn’t do it financially and mentally anymore. I think I’ll give it a go when I have a more stable financial situation. Meat substitutes and lab grown meat are starting to be pretty legit. I actually had these vegan attacks when eating meat while high on weed a couple years back and starting feeling visceral pain when eating meatballs. I vaped a lot of nicotine to intentionally lower my state of consciousness and I think it worked it went away. My empathy is growing again though so I think it’s gonna soon be time to come back and finish that loop.

@Spiritual Warrior What is the point of your post then? Why not be proud today? Or figure out some particular productivity protocol to achieve major breakthroughs in the next 6 months?

Social circle blueprint 1& 2 by rsd Luke combined with the Michael sartain social media and events strategy. It’s longer term but I’ve never seen anything else like it. The other stuff will get you laid a few times but the social circle game will open your world up to new possibilities nobody you know has even considered.

How do you know 🤔

@Twentyfirst if it doesn’t appeal to you it won’t work but I would say more it’s systems thinking. You break down the system to make it work in your favour and to the favour of those you wanna have in your life. An aversion to power will lead you to have little impact on society and I would call it a stage green/blue shadow. @Miguel1 How so?

We are about to enter a golden age in medicine and new treatments, I would be extremely hopeful if I was anyone with a chronic disease. The last 200 million pairs of the human genome just got decoded a few years ago, this is cataclysmic in terms of medicinal applications. Even AI and blockchain in their current form could revolutionize medicine by themselves. Have you seen how ancient the systems that current doctors use? You can go to 3 different specialists and get 3 different diagnosis and treatments, how is that not a disaster? In their careers people come up with all kinds of different new specialized understandings and there wasn’t a way to melt it all together before and verify it.
