From my experience asking questions is often not very effective for giving your clients results. Many times their thinking is so away from the path of the solutions they're looking for that I mostly do 25% asking questions 25% listening and 50% just lecturing and giving them the insights or context they're missing and would take them ages to reach by their own thinking even with me guiding their minds. You can ask the right questions as much as you want but sometimes people just will not have insightful answers. If you're an expert in what you do, ask questions to gather the raw answers they need to hear

I second water kefir, it helped my digestion for years after I stopped taking it. Bone broth is full of heavy metals though as lead mimics calcium and is stored in the bones, not many people are aware of this though

I would argue then the megalomaniacs described in the last post must have a degree of sociopathy or psychopathy or something along the lines. They must not have the capacity of empathy or seeing the world from other people's POV. Sometimes I consciously take advantage of other people in very small insignificant ways or tell small lies here and there and then these things stay on my consciousness for months and when I see the person in real life the stuff is consistently on my mind and I feel the urge to get if off my chest. So genuineness, transparency, honesty and authenticity are not even values of mine, they are personality traits baked into my psyche. These people must not have that and actually have the opposite hardware. I wouldn't say they have "made a choice" even. It almost couldn't be another way. Natural selection is testing out different survival strategies and it seems that not having that empathy is hyper effective if you're lucky enough to break through in society. It's not guaranteed to work. You may end in jail or beat up. So genetics play a big role imo but that's no real surprise. --- Coined a new term with chatgpt since there is no one term that defines the fenomenon in that blog post : Machiavellian Pragmatheism The strategic mode of operation where truth, morality, self-identity are fluid tools, shaped and discarded solely for the accumulation and consolidation of power and wealth. It combines Machiavellian cunning, extreme pragmatism, and the ability to believe or abandon any idea or person at will, based purely on strategic advantage. A Machiavellian Pragmatheist not only manipulates others but also self-deceives, controls narratives, and rewrites reality itself when necessary. Power is the end goal, reality is a game, people are pieces, and winning is the only principle.

Sorry to hear your health struggles, I hope everything is sorted out by now. Yeah, this goes both ways. Ignorant people use toxic chemicals and toxic chemicals breed ignorant people. I had this situation with my camper van where I carpeted the entire interior using some strong glue and It would give me breathing problems if I stayed the night. Aparently it was formaldehyde ( smells like the smell of " new " ) and prbably a bunch of other nasty things. It took about half a year to properly ventilate and stop giving off fumes... If you're sensistive to airborne particles and chemicals you can get lots of high qualiry hepa and carbon air purifiers. They surely wont harm. Who knows how efficient they actually are

@Davino I struggle to find earplugs that I can wear for more than a few hours without my ears hurting. Are these wearable for long hours? how much noise do they reduce? would you say they are good enough for clubbing?

I challenge you to notice and point out the imperfections in all the systems you see for a few days. For example , language is a system that's good enough to get the job done for collective survival of the species, but just look how much room for misinterpretation there is.

Hey, here’s the result of a conversation I had with AI about the nature of systems, something I’ve been observing for a while now. I wanted to share a few of these ideas as food for thought for y’all system thinkers out there. Sometimes, it’s not right to systematize everything. Sometimes, an imperfect system that gets the job done is good enough. Sometimes, you can get a system close to perfect, but don’t be surprised when it still requires maintenance, manual labor, or just doesn’t work under every condition. Here’s what came out of that conversation. Let me know if you liked it:

The stage blue equivalent is Devotion good stuff

Visual representation of telepathy , just apply it to consciousness Bashar explains channeling as two beings connecting on the same frequency, like tuning those old radios.

As a deeply intuitive guy, I resonate with this. I had a similar thing happening playing GeoGuessr. Guessing the place up to a few kms from a simple road or random bush. It could be intuition or precognition unless the game is designed to feed you close calls to hook you on it. (No matter where you click, afterwards it tells you you were close. How could you tell anyways?) I commonly experience stuff like guessing how many individual units there are in a bunch of things without counting, beating people in rock paper scissors 12 times in a row, guessing what time it is randomly when waking up or in the middle of the night, guessing people's names, professions, and Zodiac signs. One time I guessed all three from a single person, lol, left his jaw hanging. Little gut feeling warnings of caution in split-second situations. Thinking about someone I haven't seen in years or months and him calling me randomly a few hours later. I learned intuitively how to do astral projection by hearing some instructions for a few seconds, and I also had mystical experiences just starting meditation with no prior experience. It is super easy to get delusional and fall into self-deception in the realm of the paranormal and ESP. But on the other hand, don't let materialism hold you back. Contemplate the mechanics of existence for yourself from absolute scratch with the utmost epistemological rigor. I tried channeling a few times by writing on my laptop's keyboard with my eyes closed, and sometimes my fingers write the words almost before I can think them. It's feels like catching a stream of water while swimming in the ocean, or a warm current of air while sky gliding. Apparently, you can get into some sort of state of consciousness, call it trance or vibration or whatever, that facilitates or increases the likelihood of this happening. Bashar says it's getting in the gamma brain waves. So people who genetically are more prone to gamma waves would have increased and more accurate ESP experiences. Think about it. How are thoughts even possible? Do thoughts belong to you? Are they you? Where do they come from? Where are thoughts located? What are thoughts besides symbols? Thoughts are literally non-physical perception. They are a stream of intelligence (of different degrees) mixed with self-awareness and nothingness. Notice you don't have full control over them, only partial influence. Why do you have a specific thought rather than a different one? You can explain it with the brain and the subconscious mind, but they are just crutches. Sensory organs and the brain are another epistemological crutch. How is experience or perception possible because of a brain or sensory organs? In the end, they don't explain anything. Materialism breaks when you keep asking " but why?" Consciousness can imagine perception into existence without the need for any sensory organs or the brain. Point being, I resonate with this dude whether this is the game trying to hook you on it or actual ESP.

Gotta try this, I'll report how it goes

jesus, this guy's guitar skills are next level. Imagine if he could sing.

Props to you brother. Keep looking at people through this lens and you will soon become a wise man. Anything that seems like irrational or even self-destructive behavior ALWAYS serves some beneficial purpose although often subconscious or logically twisted.

This reminds me of a recent situation in Spanish politics. Juan Lobato, a guy from the left recorded a corrupt conversation with someone from the opposing party and gave the recording to a notary. Instead of being praised for exposing corruption, his own party forced him to step down. This made absolutely no sense at the beginning but then it clicked. They couldn’t trust him anymore for their own under-the-table deals. Of course, the media didn’t paint it like that, but it is obvious to me. Lobato was criticized for notarizing a corruption recording without consulting his party, which they painted as betrayal. The media focused on his lack of loyalty and the disruption he caused rather than the corruption he exposed. It really shows how the system punishes transparency to protect power.

Hand warmers are great, specially if you are prone to cold limbs . I used lots of those when travelling in my van. Put them in your socks and gloves for bonus heating effect . Don't put directly on your skin, they can burn you!! Watch out for the expire date when bulk purchasing! I Spent 50 bucks on a bunch of them in a store and they were all expired by a year... they would only generate heat for half the time as advertised

Sometimes hitting rock bottom is the solid foundation you need to rebuild your life, where the pain of staying the same is greater than the pain of change. It would be wise not to have to resort to such extremes, but if you listen to recovery stories, you'll notice that people sometimes go through an inflection point that catalyzes their decision. Why do you socially isolate yourself? How does drinking help you in socializing? What are the unpleasant emotions and thought patterns you distract yourself from by drinking?

Started another 50mg DMSA every 3 hours round. This time it felt draining from the first dose. I'm not dosing every 4 hours at night this time. Sticking with 3. Last time it F me up. I'm just curious if dosing lower makes it actual harder? What if I took a 100 or 200 mg dose evey 3 hours? Would it make chelation easier? Kinda itching to try that out for science but I don't want to screw myself up again. It took me 3 weeks to recover my adrenals from that 100 mg ala dosing I'm on day two ATM. Started 25 jan at 12 AM. Ending 28 jan ( Tuesday) 12 Am After that round I felt a little tired at first but two days later I felt on top of the world with limitless energy and focus, and then it slowly faded out as days passed. Its difficult to pinpoint exactly what's the reason what works doesn't but I'm guessing it's this. Can't emphasize enough how positively high doses of vitamin C affect my energy levels. It's night and day if I don't take it

Leo’s been marinating this one on his hard drive for 3 months. For the best experience, be sure to let it sit for at least 15 minutes after opening

@Archie whats your doses? how often for how long? What does " working better" mean for you?

Very promising software , specially for someone like me who loses all his zen with technology and software being more complicated than expected for basic tasks
