@Hardkill Do you understand my position on this conflict?

@Hardkill You mean the nukes?

@Hardkill Probably not, maybe they hold a small part of it.

I don't know nor have the entire context to base about said people who are anti alcohol or pro alcohol. Whenever I go and hear a person say they are 100% sober, and don't drink, and another person says they drink moderately, sometimes they take a break, and all this while being in a bar or night club, it cringes me, like why are you in a place that serves alcohol legally in a social context? I get preach anti feels, and feel a person is withholding a little bit more happiness by forcing themselves to be inflexible and rigid.

Honestly I found this out a few minutes ago, and was considering posting it here. I haven't finished the entire video, but so far it's a good discussion. Here it is below: https://youtu.be/uM-GKRqKhEA I think, with how M. Girl's style of communication, his emotional development, his moral and cognitive development, his state of being, his lelvel of authenticity and edginess, and his life experiences so far, and his personality typing, compared and contrasted to Leo Gura, I don't think the conversation would go down well. The few things I think the convo might provide in value, is that it might reveal more of Mr. Girl's value system and how he might view the world and people in general, and same with Leo, unless Leo is willing to take more control of the conversation and guide it where it needs to go. I don't know how it might go, but it could be interesting, two people with similarly confrontational styles of communication, just one is more edgy and direct, and the other is more fluent and faster.

@Preety_India This could be a sign for you to take a break from this forum if you feel too uncomfortable being here atm, as it did help me a bit taking breaks. I've also been on the receiving end of some of those complaints and a few did use personal info from my past journals or posts in the general forum against me, which is why I stopped using the self journaling in this forum and instead used physical journals instead, it's just annoying and juvenile behaviour. I typically straight away put em in ignore when I recognize some of them are bending or breaking guidelines to piss me off. I hope you take care of yourself.

What happened? Is it the usual users? It could be the seasonal change, it sometimes makes most people edgy.

@Emrie What were your reasons for not drinking in general?

@A_v_E Maybe watch the video first for context and understanding, so that you can better share your thoughts.

@MarkKol Hahaha yes, it's part of my character strength, appreciation of beauty and excellence, also some values in my top ten values. It's hard not to have high standards for the things, topics and fields of interest you have. I tend to think people who have medium, or low standards are just not into whatever field of work/interest they are in, not passionate enough. However, this all depends on many factors inside and outside context, like the value system the person has, their cognitive and moral development, their states of being and emotional states, their general and specific life experiences so far, and lines of development per domain of life. I love the monthly release mature mangas, as the artists in that part of the industry do put in a ton of effort to make the backgrounds and character design and story really good, and compared to other shoujo mangas or animes, the classic sailor moon series still has top notch colouring for it's time, so I tend to project high standards here related to eastern comics as well as western comics, but not as high as with chess, or snooker, or boxing, as while I like them, I like comics and video games much more. I guess it really comes down to which art you were exposed to first, and how much experiences consumer/creator wise in that field, that fuels the high standard.

@PurpleTree How do you know???

A great introduction into self help for novices and newbies to self development.

@Knowledge Hoarder I'm not sure if the OP was intentionally belittling artists in general. It certainly seems that way if we are looking at art in general through the materialistic/utilitarian view, but I think this view is important for some part of the creation process of whatever art work one is doing, but I think the order in which to view that way is important, and viewing from the utilitarian way right at the beginning might be the improper time to do so.

@KingCrimson It's not pointless to compare and contrast things. It's making distinctions between multiple things first, and later synthesizing parts or whole things together, to see what new stuff can be made, but it first begins by acknowledging the differences between them for a start.

Update: I have finished one of the rooms we both were designing for the inner samedhi experiences, and the colour choices were good, like it's a feng shui effect going on.

@BirdNerd This is the standard any man should aim for, bare minimum. Past that we go into very specific fetishes and kinks if we are still ineide the sex context, but before that it's mostly vanilla.

@PurpleTree Or be born in the month of the drqgon, and the year of the dragon.

I think it's worth sharing here, but it shows to me how fundamental and foundational art really is, to th3 point that it's not limited ti just human beings: Although Leo thought the elephant was trained harshly into being able to paint like that on a previous thread about my art, the point I was making back then was that art wasn't limited to people. Like others have said here, Albert Einstein had a musical hobby and he derived most of his insights of space from the violin, plus allowing himself to imagine being light himself and viewing reality at different points. Maybe how I framed it was off. A really good art and engineering fusion, and role modal for you would likely be Nikola Tesla. A skillful scientist and engineer, while also being able to design and draw in his mind, every part of a machine! I'm partly able ti do that, but nowhere near every single part, which is to me an amazing level of visualization skills to reach one day. Mine is Leonardo da Vinci.

I definitely agree on the loud noise bit. It throws me off too much to socialize with other people.

For some who are Republicans here, what does a healthy Republican party look like to you?

@Yarco That's true, he mostly hunts for his own source of food, and suggests others try doing more of that. The ridiculous claims were clips of him saying outlandish stuff, taken out of context of course, given the nature of how off the cuff Joe Rogan is in his podcasts. He is not without faults though on other areas of life.

@SQAAD So you think you are in the right to preach veganism?

@bambi In one episode about either the universe or infinity, he used an image that was also used in a space documentary in Netflix, and I immediately recognized the image. It was a man spreading his arms before the night sky.

@bambi I originally thought that as well, because Leo did say in the past he sometimes likes to colour and is an artsy person, but actually it's stock images of other artists he's using.

@Evoke Seriously? Singing too? This man's almost a polymath, a polymath maniac
