Because survival in a ghetto is very rough. It's like surviving in the desert or a warzone. And their sub-culture reflects that. It's very stage Red levels of development. People behave like animals. Because they don't have many other options.
Rap music is a good reflection of that because that's where it grew out of. Although much of modern rap is pretty fake.

TaxAct is good. That's what I use.
You can find a good local CPA by searching on Yelp, if you need more complex tax services. I do that too.

@Leo Gura Attraction comes 90% down to energy! Why are you making looks (for a man) sound so important?

When my energy is right I attract the bulk of girls when it's off I do the opposite of attract. Attraction and repulsion is an energetic force, just like with a magnet. 

I was once in a club slightly high on LSD, my energy was fire. I was aware of how I was literally attracting people like a magnet, I saw it visually. It was actually very annoying and had to physically push some people away. But this is how attraction works, if I was needy or dark souled the opposite would have happened. 

Every Diet is Complete And Utter BS.
Look at all these never-ending debates had between vegans, vegetarians, keto-dieters, and carnivores, all debating the most optimal or "ancestrally-appropriate" diet.
Look at the endless bickering and ruminating over which foods are actually good for me and which are slowly poisoning me to an early grave? Constantly blaming one food and the next; go on youtube and I guarantee you will find a video for EVERY food known to man in which some shmuck is insisting it causes heart disease and / or cancer and it's literally the devil and should be burned at the stake!!
Yet, at the same time you will find people adhering any one of these diets who are either perfectly healthy OR very much unhealthy!
Mentally or physically, well or unwell, you will find examples of people who eat fucking McDonalds 4 times a week who are PERFECTLY FUCKING HEALTHY, FOR FUCKS SAKE!!
Hell, I grew up in a family who didn't know much better than to take their kids to such restraunts. Guess what? I had NO health issues until someone told me sugar and fried foods are bad for you! And I believed it!! Only THEN did I start to get the early symptoms of type II diabetes in my early 20s! It wasn't because sugar was actually bad for me! No! 
It was because I believed it was!
All these people caught up in fad diets and peer review study that and detox regime this because they think their imaginary fucking bodies are filled with imaginary fucking "parasites" and "heavy metals"!!
It's Complete and Utter Madness!!
It's ALL BS! Made up by people caught up in the delusion of causality, in the mind, people caught up in Maya.
Listen, I've said it before, and I'll say it again.
Health is a state of mind. Nothing more.
Perfect Peace of Mind = Perfect Health
People who take parasite cleanses or heavy-metal detoxes clensing their bodies from parasites or heavy metals, NO! That's NOT what ails them! They're trying to relieve themselves of the mere thought of being tainted or infected!! They're simply trying to give themselves a reason feel healthy and doing all these mental gymnastics just to do so!! 
Just BE Healthy!!
These diets and detox remines only work because we believe they do!! Seriously!!
WAKE UP!!!
I've tried 4 different diets and several detox methods and you know what I realized? It's ALL BS!! 
We're dreaming!!
There is no material world! There is no biology! There is no causality! There is no time!!
You're imagining ALL OF IT!!
So, if you want to be healthy, do what I did every time my body's going through inflammation. Go out into the woods and meditate on it.
Just sit with it and Breathe.
What you will find, is that like the thoughts that come and go with attention during meditation, so too does the sensation of inflammation! Do you know what this means? Bodily-discomfort is a thought! Physical illness is a thought, imaginary, in EXACTLY the same way mental illness, or even the occasional irratible mood is identical to the irritable bowel!
It's ALL thought.
It's ALL sensation.
It's ALL imaginary.
It's ALL BS.
So go ahead, and eat what you think is good for you, better yet, eat what feels healthiest, but know at the end of the day, you're making all this shit up and you'd be better of realizing yourself as healthier in every moment anyway.
You Are God.
So when you feel these sensations and thoughts of ill-health, see past the illusion of maya, thought, sensation, and simply KNOW that you are perfectly healthy anyway.
That's how it works.
Breathe. You Are Already Perfect.
 
Wake Up.

You guys get easily confused by calling it solipsism. Just call it dreaming. You are dreaming everything and everyone. And the dream is designed in such a way that you cannot easily notice that it is a dream, nor stop dreaming. If you could easily see through the dream, you'd be dead, so obviously the dream must be intensely convincing.
If you could just walk up to a scientist and ask him, "Am I dreaming?" And he said, "Yes!" Then that would be a very weak dream. Of course he's gonna tell you No! A dream can only work if you deny that you are dreaming.
So it all boils down to a simple game of denial. Since you are dreaming, you have infinite capacity for denial. Who's gonna contradict you in your own dream? Whatever you manage to convince yourself of becomes your reality. Simple.

I hate yoga people. And Buddhists.
They're just playing games.

Health is also lifestyle. We cannot control our genetics, so it doesn’t help us to worry about them. We need to focus on what we can control which is our lifestyle. If you aren’t going to the gym 5 times a week, then the results are on you.
This genetics stuff is just victim mentality. We can overcome and persevere with discipline, will, and lifestyle factors. Of course, our health will die in the end, but it is no point in being a victim to the fact that you can control your energy levels through your lifestyle. Anything otherwise is victim mentality.

I feel like I wasted my 20'ies with stupid things. Now I'm early 30'ies. I wish I could go back to being 20 again with the knowledge I have now. That would be worth diamonds in my eyes.
What I discovered in my contemplations is that the real acre of diamonds is youthfulness. What is the point of being wealth, health and great relationships if you are not young and ready to bust? If I lived a shitty life all my life and had a glow up at 50 or something I would not appreciate it.
Now I'm doing good at probably when I'm older I will say I wish I was 30 again but that is the whole thing. Always running behind life.

Beyond nonduality is where serious consciousness starts happening.

Plenty of folks are on the brink of mental disorder already. Certainly psychedelics could push them over the edge. Hardcore meditation could also send one over the edge.

Haha, they already are.
Unfortunately advanced yogic practice is not enough to eliminate dogma. In a sense, the more successful the practice, the bigger the problem. The success of the practice justified the dogma in the person's mind. "After all, if these techniques works so well, then teaching them rigidly can't be wrong."
Dogma is not a function content, it's a function of cognitive structure. And I don't see Sadhguru teaching his students how to avoid dogma by exposing them to diverse sources and teachings. So his students will not have an deep integrated stage Yellow/Turquoise spirituality. They will have a narrow Isha spirituality. Isha will be best in their minds. Sadhguru will be best and worshiped as some ultimate master. This of course will lead to bigotry.
I like Sadhguru, but his programs are not designed to encourage deep, independent contemplation or inquiry. They are designed for sheeple to blindly follow. It's sort of like the Apple eco-system. It's used by the least computer savvy people who just want a simple experience. But it's a closed, proprietary eco-system. And you better expect Apple to milk you for the convenience. It's in Apple self-interest to lock you in to their walled garden. But a wall is still a wall even if it's a spiritual wall.
P.S. Constructing temples only deepens the problem as it reinforces the myth of Sadhguru. The more tangible the benefits of the temple, the worse the problem. If I built an Actualized temple which gave you legit visions of God every time you entered it, Actualized would quickly become a cult.

Honestly, interviewing Putin is kinda terrifying. If you push him too hard and make a fool out of him, he might have you poisoned just to send a message.
Imagine if you knew that I poisoned a half dozen forum members who acted out. You'd be real careful what you post.

You could re-dose it 20 times in a row.
But be careful. Monitor yourself for headaches or other health issues and discontinue use if you start feeling unwell.
And also, be ware, that much 5-MeO-DMT will put you dangerously out of touch with material life.

@Identity Very good analysis.
Zoom out further and your girlfriend is revealed to be a projection of your own mind. But let's not get ahead of our skiis

Well, the smartest guys are not out at parties where the hottest girls are, they are locked in a basement doing serious work. So of course the hottest girls tend to get with the party guys. She can't suck your dick if you're locked in a basement doing rocket science.
But also, be careful with your simplistic and victim-mindset reinforcing stereotypes. If you are so smart and deep, how about you use a bit of those smarts to lure in a hot girl? Maybe you ain't as smart as you think

No, I mostly motivate myself to take action because I have a keen sense that I will soon be dead and I value the miracle of my life too much to waste a single year of it on dumb shit.
So stop joking around and educate yourself seriously.

Karmic consquences to everything.

Pickup is not easy. In fact I believe its way harder than spirituality, lol. 
I'm 25. I've already spent 10k in coaching (including 2 RSD bootcamps), done 400 cold approaches in 2 years (with 300 of them being in the last 5 months), and gotten laid 0 times. 
Between July 2021 and now, my fear around going out and approaching was reducing, but shot back up in the past month (not sure why). My skill was plateauing and after just working with Jeffy infield, my game got worse. (Part of the natural progression??) 
For the typical person, this would be sufficient grounds for quitting. 400 approaches, no intimacy, and now getting worse? Hell, I'm almost reluctant to post this as it might deter newbies. But proper expectations go a long way. 
But here's the thing: I am not giving up, I'm only going to go harder. I've made it my goal to go out EVERY night and walk around the club area just to get in the habit of being out there without necessarily approaching. Then on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday try and get together with wings to go ham. 
This is the only way. I'm scared at the soul level, but I've got to do it. It's the fight of my life. Who can relate?
 

What do you expect? Of course it's rare. Most girls want to be fucked by a strong man. You want a rare thing.
Embrace the rareness and look for the rare.

Depends on why you take meditation up.
Its function is healing and mindfulness, so that's what you'll get.

He is not pursuing truth or objectivity. He's acting out self-bias in an aggressive and dogmatic manner. Which will backfire.
There will be less negative side effects from TYT than Jimmy Dore.
Jimmy Dore is wrong on Russia. There is definitely a Trump-Russia connection, it's just not clear what that connection is. It's probably worse than anyone imagines. Maybe one day we will know. And maybe not, because not all things can be proven.
Never give Trump the benefit of the doubt on such things. He's rotten to the core.
Regardless, Jimmy Dore's whole style is dogmatic and will lead to problems if it is more widely adopted. Politics requires much more nuance. This is not conscious politics, it's foaming-at-the-mouth progressivism, which is no virtue.

Not above, but as powerful as any of those on me.
No specific chemical can be recommended to anyone in general because they affect people in wildly different ways.
My experience of weed is highly unusual. Weed will not affect most people like it does me. For most people 5-MeO will give much more reliable God-mode.
You should find what works best for specifically you. Do not assume you are like me in this domain. I am highly unusual.
Just Consciousness.

It just doesn't make sense. You're not gonna want to have sex on it. It's too serious, the duration is too short, and the body load is not right.
I've jerked off on it about a dozen times. It's kinda interesting but it doesn't feel particularly great. Normal jerking off feels more pleasurable. 5-MeO-DMT does not enhance sexual pleasure for me, it makes sexual pleasure feel kinda underwhelming and mechanical.

If you don't possess highly sought-after skills, don't even think about coming to Europe.
The only scenario in which this makes sense is if you are a highly skilled expert in a field with significant demand in Europe, such as technology. In such a case, you could earn a good income, and if you come from a poor country, you might be able to return after a while and live very comfortably for the remainder of your life.
Europe, especially Scandinavia, is a very hostile place for foreigners. This is not like early America, where immigrants could just show up with nothing and work their way to the top. There is barely any opportunity even for our own people.

Indeed, awakening is required.
Just what do you think Oneness means?
You think you are going to realize Oneness and still maintain that you did are not doing industrialized killing?
It's all you baby! Whatever horrors you see in the world are the very horrors you created. You are not gonna be able to blame anyone else for it.
