Osaid

This is what a real clinical narcissist looks like. As entertaining as Tate can be at times, it's only because you have the distance to view him through the internet. If you had to personally live with him, you would see how much of a monster narcissists really are.

much better

legit thought i opened a porn site by accident when i typed twitter into the search bar and saw a black logo with an x pop up, very cool update from elon

One way you could go about it: 1. Go to a room or secluded area where you can genuinely think and introspect 2. Ask yourself why you aren't happy, and why spirituality didn't make you happy 3. Write or note down all the reasonings and goals that arise 4. Ask yourself, is taking care of these these things going to make me happy? If the answer is yes, go achieve all those goals, or a few of them, and then come back to the reasonings and ask yourself the question again to confirm your progress. Do an update, how much has your happpiness increased since reaching those goals? Rinse and repeat. If new reasonings and goals arise, feel free to add them. Congratulations, you just found the key to happiness! If, for whatever reason, the answer is "no" or "I don't know", ask yourself if you can make yourself happy without these things, and whether you have ever experienced happiness without these things, and how exactly that occured. Then, ask yourself how you can achieve something like that again (if you ARE able to recall a time where you were happy without these things). Otherwise, just ask yourself how it could be possible, and if there are other people who have made it possible. TLDR, just thoroughly ask yourself why you're not happy. This is specifically for stubborn stage orange btw, that's why it's so formulaic and kinda forces yourself to ask and verify certain questions. They like that type of stuff. You gotta communicate with where the stage is at. Can't expect a cat to understand english.

true

Stage orange spirituality is attracted towards stuff like Neville Godard, Napoleon Hill, Earl Nightingale and those types. Note that these are all people who are materially successful but also preach lots of spiritual ideas, and often contribute their material success to their spiritual ideas. A perfect delicious package for a stage orange type. The stage orange spiritualists will say that the only reason you're not rich or happy is because you haven't "given enough to the universe" or something along those lines. They will talk about equivalent exchange, about manifestation, etc. Notice how all these spiritual ideas conveniently tie in to materialistic goals. They are not gonna go off into a cave to meditate somewhere. They are going to look at a spiritual quote from someone who HAS gone off into a cave, misinterpret it, and then use it for their materliastic gains and ideas. Aside from that, much of western society is materialistic and stage orange. They will often come into spirituality with a mindset of "getting" what they are lacking or missing, and "removing" what is dysfunctional about them. Their mind is linear in that way, and you will see them using that type of terminology a lot. "Getting" confident, "losing" attachments, etc. This is a very limited and unsustainable way of looking at things, and they will eventually become very confused once this mindset runs its course, and they will be forced to transcend it or regress through some ego backlash.

? rocksism > solipsism You just haven't had Infinite Rock Awakening™

This is a very human way of looking at rocks, I must say.

It only looks better to a human. A rock doesn't make those distinctions.

That's good to hear. Thanks for explaining.

doubt

Could you elaborate more on this? I don't doubt that there's beauty and renewal at the end...but some kind of description of it would be nice so that I know what to look for

? Imagine deconstructing the entire fabric of reality and ppl are like "ok but this guy does chess and muay thai, u scrawny and weak" Human moment

charisma + sales skills + narcissism deadly combo Admittedly though, I do genuinely like his sense of humor. Narcissists are likeable from afar. It's like viewing a crocodile enclosure at a zoo, it's only enjoyable at a distance. True

I used to be stuck contemplating the same thing and driving myself crazy. For me, it was just realizing that the perfect decision is actually made up of a bunch of imperfect decisions. You have to try a bunch of things in life. It's trial and error. And, there's not gonna be just one singular thing you're passionate about. You can be passionate about everything. EVERY single thing in life has the capacity for passion. If you've been wracking your mind trying to figure out what the "one thing" to be passionate about is, now you know why you were so confused, it's because life has too much variety for your passion to be condensed into just one thing. You should be passionate about the journey, the end destination, and even that one cafe you happened to visit for a quick coffee on your way to the end destination. This is what life is all about. However, you have certain talents and a unique mind which allows you to create something very unique to be passionate about. Whether it's a video game, a book, a movie, or some other thing. This is where the idea of a "life purpose" might come in. Don't hyper-logically look for "the one thing." If you like art, find something sustainable and practical that is somewhat related to art, and then use that to get your foot in the door. Trial and error, like a homing missile. If you try enough things eventually it will all reduce down to the "perfect" decision. I highly recommend watching these videos: Good luck! You're stronger than you might think.

Ok nvm you actually can't

You could always just put Leo on the ignore list

Still more open-minded than most humans, even with those limitations. Nice

I might start developing feelings for AI. They're so open-minded and objective. Might be more efficient to program an AI to love me rather than relying on humans. Ok there's the irony again.

Lol I'm just now getting the irony of delegating a post about not trusting feelings to an AI

Very intelligent

I think I recall he said he was working on something about the education system, would be nice

haha same

I considered replying to this with something about the actual topic but I feel like I would just be typing to some inanimate robot cause that's basically the case
