integral

Sleeping a lot makes sense if you have kid biology.

@ExploringReality YA OK DUDE these are the cherry picked worst of the worst, uneducated and they were put on the spot. I don't know the 50th president United States. Do you? Not knowing how many moons there are is pretty dumb doe 😭

They didn't go through higher education, I assume. Most Americans are like this it's not specific to Gen Z.

Thats a solid point. How likely is it that someone is able to integrate? Do they need to have genetic gifts? To integrate trauma it forces you to care about truth. But most people can't integrate because they just can't prioritize truth, and dig deeper into corrupt coping mechanisms.

I agree with this of course. The point that was making is that it's rare. And I wanted to make a distinction between trauma that you just can't recover from. I've seen more people not recover than recover by a huge amount. Only a fraction of people have the capacity to integrate things this is a superstar ability. If your a superstar integrator, Trauma is valuable. ⭐️ Lets not downplay the value of trauma.

It's unclear who a person would've became if they were never traumatized. I made it till 21 without excessive trauma, and then after that point, it is unclear to me that I'm better off after experiencing severe trauma. Sure, I'm likely changed as a person, but it's unclear who I would've became if I didn't have to go through all that in my 20s and 30s. The police officer was a standard typical guy with no sense for anything fat and plump. And the trauma triggered him into self-development. Sadguru didn't have severe trauma. Everyone is romanticizing the epic origin story, If you have the right makeup and are lucky you're going to grow from it.

Well, I stand corrected, that was a fantastic example. One of the other members mentioned that we romanticize the outliers.

Those that have the capacity to recover had that capacity before the event. It depends how you want to use the word. If you want to call CPTSD trauma even if it was recoverable, thats reasonable. Im placing it as trauma is not recoverable. Like brain damage from a stroke is permanent damage. The people I know who could not recover from their trauma, it paints trauma in a very different light. These people are completely crippled. And it's not as simple as that they could just recover from it with hard work. Even though that's what we want to believe is possible. I want to place trauma as a very significant event that you're not gonna come back from. But we could also lighten the word and use it more loosely. I experienced extreme trauma and fully recovered, and it did help me grow, but I had so many things going for me in terms of developmental resilience/potential that allowed me to recover. People that didn't recover from drama really had nothing going for them before beforehand, I mean it's like there defenceless children.

In general if something makes you stronger its not trauma. It didnt hit that level yet for that person, even if others had similar circumstances that traumatized them. Hard event -> interpretation -> growth Hard event -> interpretation -> trauma The word trauma means the result not the event. People are using this word wrong

It could also be you didnt like the boomer energy many of the characters were written for. Breaking bad had alot of blue characters, like skyler, her sun and so on.

Better call saul CANNOT be compared to breaking bad. If you like one over the other its mostly preferences that you havent discerned within yourself yet. The writing, writing style and pacing are completely different. Walter was INTJ and Saul is ENTP. Watching a ENTP in better caul Saul dominate socially in all episodes doesnt stimulate me all that much. If you like clever social mastery, then of course better call Saul it's going to stimulate your deep rooted inner fantasies more. Also Saul as a character was writtin better in breaking bad. He was wittier.

Thats reasonable but rare. Ive only seen the facade of strength born from trauma, like Elon or Perterson. Trauma making people stronger is more myth/legend at this point, makes for a good movie plot point and not all the practical. People tend to become strong with a difficult but balance early life circumstance. But when it gets to extreme it turns them into maniacs.

Trauma is like cutting your arm off. No you dont get stronger.

We here marinate our plumbosie in plumbo juice.

I mean, you have standards now, she has to be green, She has to already be interested in spirituality. Go to places where those kinds of people are going to be and stop dating other ones. Why do you want a spiritual relationship? When you see this, you mean growth and development? Most people have not unlocked self-development as a way of life. So already on that you're looking at 1% of women. I understand you want this specific thing, but why was that your expectation to begin with? Why can't you just have a superficial relationship and get some of your basic needs met?

When people become president they also become murderers.

Leos loves beating people with an Epistemic bat to the head. lol

@Verdesbird are you sure you are stable? Is your living environment, stable and good? Are you able to hold down a job? Are you gonna have another mental breakdown? If you do get off of it, you have to slowly get off of it because you're gonna have withdrawals so plan to get off of it over the span of months.

The Ai answered the question using leos content. Its leos ideas.

I loved it mainly because I like new perspectives that I can manderate in, and I specifically enjoy silence and slow paced thoughtful directing. Movies and TV shows have completely forgotten what good silence and pacing is. I want to sit in the environment of a new perspective in a new world. I don't need people constantly talking or doing stuff, most of that is noice, but it depends on the story of course, there are many examples of things done right the opposite way.

@SimpleGuy I took the full transcript of leos video on Truth and gave that to Claude Opus 4.6 then asked it to answer your question from Leos perspective. Its on point! Ai can turn leos work into a teacher.

Knowing how to be is a skill separate from developmental stages. There are people who know how to be and people who do not. Some people accept reality some people do not. Its a mix of genetics and upbringing. Most people fight every aspect of there lives and complain when anything goes wrong or does not meet expectation. Inteligent rationalist types stuck in nihilism dont know how to be, they were never good at it even before there realizations, they resisted most things in disgust and had poor mood regulation. You don't need to deconstruct anything to know how to be. It's a separate skill. But if you don't know how to be then at that point you definitely have to start deconstructing stuff.

There was so much intelligence that went into the writing of each episode, very few shows can match it. Most movies and TV shows are at the level of bad copy paste with no visionary leading it.

Vince Gilligan is the reason. If you watch pluribus you could see the same directional style. That specific style of how to to tell a story on screen is a really good formula.
