What is?

I wish Jesus could see this I'd pay to see his reaction

Mindlessly repeating lucid dreaming techniques, without trying to understand what's actually going on and what makes those techniques work. In general, repeating a technique mindlessly (in trying to practice anything) without a desire to understand how or why it actually works. This can get you started but later turns into a mechanical process rather than conscious one.

Yeah and Orthodox Christians as well. In my country when you go to the church, it's like a circus, and the higher the priest is in the hierarchy, the more ridiculous the outfit gets. If you tried to speak up and ask question on why those specific outfits, they rationalize and say that it's all canonical, as if canonical means sacred or something. It's funny when you look up Canonical in dictionary, you get -> "conforming to a general rule, standard, or official authority"

What the fuck was he thinking? Why did he do it?

How so? But yeah, I've also noticed that in the last years people, men and women blindly parroting those 5 languages.

I also feel like I'm an old guy as I turned 30 this year, lol. I think that's common for 30 year olds, 20s are over, 30s are getting started and shit gets serious all of a sudden. How do you view 30s from your age?

30. Time flies 👴🏻

That actually helps with weight-loss, tracking calories and tracking exercise to see if you need to ramp it up if weight-loss progress plateaus.

@SimpleGuy That monk mode, or locking in just refers to removing distractions, that's it. Remove distractions that robs you of your energy and time and devote those to something you want to see progress in. And what are distractions? That question is personal, depends on what distracts you. For me it was social media, doomscrolling, other dopamine-depleting habits, mindless socialization, mindless drama, even a relationship at some point, but that was me at a specific point in life, doesn't mean that relationships are distraction in general, that's why it has to be a conscious choise, not something you read on the internet. Audit your life for couple days / weeks hour by hour, what is it that you do that can be removed and those hours channeled into a more constructive thing that you're working on? That can be done, look at all those tech bros and Elon Musk types, but is that what you truly want? Maybe for some time yes, to achieve certain level of success but whole life? I'd reconsider that if I were you.

Why?

So as I looked it up, Erdafitinib is a anti-cancer drug approved for treating certain advanced cancers, and it affects bone growhth, so this dude is hoping to increase his height and change facial bone structure. It's sad because he doesn't look bad in the first place, it's a good example of the pathological side of this movement. He's ruining his health, and for what? https://www.reddit.com/r/TikTokCringe/comments/1v9a27r/16_year_old_looksmaxxer_abusing_erda_and_getting/ Most people have reasonable responses, and based on the amount of likes on the comments, I think that's majority of people. Hopefully cases like this are very few.

Why is acting goofy and irrational considered wierd? You can do it in humorous way. I don't see why acting irrational with others is more authentic then not.

"X number of books to read before you die" lists. Usually includes all those popular ones.

Yeah that's annoying to hear, I don't like the assumption that he didn't suffer in there. There are some wierd genetic disorders that some people can't feel heat / cold, whatever. Maybe he had one of those
