RIP Whether you like it or not, OF introduced an entirely new marketplace of opportunity for people and shifted culture in profound ways. -
All of this blog content has really started to desensitize me to the realities of human corruption. Not sure if it's a good or bad thing !

I am realizing that being non conformist is not about sounding or looking different. This is all shallow and surface level stuff. Being truly non conformist is an internal recognition of one’s true nature. Nothing more, nothing less.

@Leo Gura I really loved your nuanced take on Conservatism: https://www.actualized.org/insights/true-conservatism A lot of it is developing attributes related to Conscientiousness (one of the big five personality traits). Whether it’s Truth, spirituality, health, success, finances, creativity, etc- there are less and more Conscientious ways to go about it. A lot people are missing these traits today. Jordan Peterson is a master at explaining the importance of conscientiousness- although he often has terrible political takes on Stage Green progressives. He’s a great example of this: another good video:

Seems quite negative perspective on life.. yes people are selfish. But there’s also capacity for genuine care, love and well meaning interactions

Lovely bird as your profile pic I tend to learn more from the ignorance, selfishness and stupidity of people nowadays. It's difficult to not judge- but dropping judgement and seeing it for what it is has become essential to spiritual growth.

Some, not all. You bring up good points about ideological nature of transgenderism-but best to avoid generalizations when addressing marginalized groups. -

God can only care about One thing .. itself , as only an Infinite Self could do -
Because they don’t exist outside the Dream. God doesn’t need a therapist because it simply doesn’t give a fuck! Trauma is self constructed, usually stemming from a perceived slight or abuse by an imaginary authority figure or important relationship. The human need for validation is real, absence of it especially in early years can lead to life long scars. But in reality God constructs its own trauma and need for validation, until it sees it as a construct and no longer needs it from others. Realizing God rids of the need for human validation, think about how much life improves without needing it. It’s the ultimate version of Self Love in a nutshell- priceless

The possibility is not too far fetched. We are in the age of slop when it comes to US politics.

Drake or Kendrick Lamar? Take your pick

Part of resisting letting go human identity is that when you do, the notion of other collapses. The idea of one human relating to another is an illusion- you can never relate to anyone or anything outside of Yourself.
