So, I signed up for Trump's newsletter a while back. His most recent one is promising all American adults a $5k stimulus check IF and ONLY IF the Republicans win the midterms lol. The claim is that the tarif income allows this to happen. But if you look into it, the tarifs haven't even brought in 15% of the money needed, IIRC. It's funny that they have a wall of text with no headings, especially given the target audience is MAGA.

I just imagined you on top of a 200 pounder. lol.

Such statements will get you banned. lol

Elon is a retard bro.

Yeah, it kinda teetered off there a bit but it came back really good I thought. The ending was actually really good once you wrap your head around it. Better than I thought it would be. I love Raymond Reddington. One of my all-time favorite characters for some reason. Sophisticated, intelligent, mastermind, puppet master, always one step ahead. Probably says something about me. lol Thanks for the reco - I'll definitely check it out!

@LordFall Actually, I think I see your point now. lol. Yes, you're right, fa sho!

lol. Not sure I understand exactly what you mean, but I think you may have me figured wrong. I'm not against getting pussy. I myself just don't want to live that lifestyle anymore because of all the baggage that comes with it. The urges are of course still there when I wind up in situations. I do think modern pickup advice is mostly toxic though, and I don't think you need most of it. So, I'm not against guys figuring out how to get laid. I just strongly disagree with the majority of the advice out there. Pareto principle. 80/20. What is the 80? Probably "play". That's healthy.

This is 95% all you need. Carrying yourself like you're comfortable in your own skin and authentic play. I think I could have hooked an 18 year old grocery clerk tonight if I had been optimizing for it, but I didn't realize it until after I had walked out of the store. It actually made me think "maybe I should get back into this whole getting pussy thing" But I know better. I walked in on a mission to get broccoli and she saw me before I ever saw her. As I was walking up to the registers, she was smiling at me differently and letting me know her aisle was open even though her young friend before her was also open and closer to me. I was weighing which one to go to and she was clearly enticing me to come to hers. She had to have been interested in my carefree mannerisms or the way that I was carrying myself because I'm not a Chad. She could probably sense carefree playfulness in me, because that's how I was feeling. So I walked up and noticed some strange shit about the tech setup and mentioned it playfully without any game or trick on the her. I end up telling her "I haven't been here in 10 years" and she says "you must be old". I immediately intuit the implications of that statement and I'm just looking at her realizing she's my size and the youngest thing I've had in my animal gaze in about 10 years, and sex thoughts were happening. My response to her was weak because I started thinking about fucking her. After my weak response, I felt the whole thing fizzle out. She even dropped the fucking bag instead of waiting for me to fully grasp it, lol. It was so obvious. I can reverse-engineer it. When she said "you must be old", I was blindsided by the obvious prospect of pussy and I killed the playfulness by saying "yeah, I am, haha". But if I were to have said "old as fuck" or "take a guess" or something that continued the play, that would have been the obvious ticket, and something like that is what she was hoping for. Instead, the animal inside hijacked my brain and she could tell that my playfulness went out the window. So, I think that aside from learning how to carry yourself and portraying that you're comfortable in your own skin, the only game needed is to learn how to continue the play. That's it! Which requires you to forget about getting the pussy. At least, that's how it is for me. As soon as I become aware that I'm trying to get it and she's open to it, I kill it. This is good news because you can practice being playful on anybody.

Actually, it's probably best to go out with a hard rod tucked into your waistband.

Although, you're flirting with not being able to get your dick up, which isn't good. The last thing you want is to eat some strange cat just to save face.

Agree. If anything, horniness will fuck you up. It seems like stockpiling excitement for 3 months before you skydive like a madman out of a plane. The anxious energy is still there. The solution to the anxious energy is to forget about it and just be playful. Imagine if you didn't run like a madman out the plane door and instead walked out playfully. Much better.

Sounds good and versatile actually.

It was good, but it wasn't as good as Amy's. Need to work on the cheese sauce.

Damn, you're fucked, lol. Only thing left is the cheese sauce and steaming. Shits about to be delicious.

About to attempt emulating this deliciousness:

😂 we need reactions on this bitch.

Ever hear of Fretkillr? Dude is/was badass.

My fav TV shows:

For the youngsters:

If anyone hasn't seen Don't Look Up yet, that's a banger.

Interstellar fa sho. And I really liked season 1 of Altered Carbon but not so much season 2. Just watched The Rip. Pretty good.

It’s as if you want to collapse all of psychology into 6 boxes and then try to refine those 6 boxes, as opposed to not boxing yourself in and looking at the more granular psychological aspects that can actually describe it in high definition, which is far more explanatory and predictive than SD ever could be. Obviously, SD can’t explain psychology better than the actual domain of psychology. So when you see something interesting in people, if you ask “how does this couch into SD” (which is what you’re asking here), that’s an inferior question to “what psychological configuration best explains this”. IMO, SD is limiting your model of other minds. For example, you’ve suggested I’m green, but usually, the only way I can actually have sympathy is via cognitive empathy, which requires me to model the mind experiencing the plight. So, either your assumption about me was wrong, or your explanation above is, or both. The truth is, the model has no slot for people like me, which is what led me to seeing how utterly flawed it is. Trying to cram every human into a handful of boxes doesn’t work. Hell, even MBTI has 16 boxes, and that’s not enough. You need like 500+ boxes, and here AO is trying to get by with 6. Lol The problem is trying to use SD to understand and label individuals. It takes like 10 seconds to intuit that’s not a good idea, if you’re actually objective and not biased towards it.

Thanks! The colors are the most important lol. It's basically a "component library" built on top of a design system (predefined styles like colors, spacing, font styles, etc). And components are just like building blocks you build once that you can use to build out a webpage or a user interface. So you can make something as simple as a button a component, then going forward be able to use it really easily like <Button variant="destructive" size="small"> Press me </Button> and that would produce a small red button and I never have to think about or manage spacing, color, font size, or anything else. So the idea is to do that with a lot of different components so you can build user interfaces really quickly and efficiently. And if you ever want to update your button, even if you've used it in a hundred places, you only have to update it in one place and the 100 buttons all update from that one component update. Hopefully I didn't bore you! lol
