The price of fame- Russell has gotten away with so much shit over the years because of his celebrity - he can’t help himself

American exceptionalism

Because you are Omniscient. I’m kidding

Our culture won’t allow such a thing. It’s almost like a shared understanding between all women to never be honest about who they sleep with due to social ramifications. I think it’s helpful to empathize with women regarding this. Much more acceptable for men to be attracted to toxic women vs. the other way around I feel.

Useless indeed when it comes to truth seeking. Useful for survival of faith narratives. Everyone has faith to some degree, we have faith when we go to sleep-we are sure to wake up the next morning. Yet all faith is based in assumption.

doesn't matter what we think. If you're attracted to them, that's all you need

@Leo Gura Great write up of retreat details, clear and concise. I get a real no nonsense feel from this retreat.

Not surprised- We should expect things like this for the next 10-20 years, Trump set the standard for this kind of depravity in US politics

Is it good tho?

God hallucinates all of experience, human and non human. Even the distinction between human and non human experience is something God hallucinates.

Leo turning up in Vegas tonight 😎

Awesome! Happy birthday 🎂

This is what we love about you- thanks

Leo and the act of appeasing don’t mix at all. That’s like Oil and water Sure he explains things, but he doesn’t indulge in fantasies of his audience for their approval. Not that he should, but that’s clearly distinct from simply explaining a stance on an existential topic.

Appeasement isn’t your thing, I get it. But yes, unusual in that most of us can’t afford a lifestyle that allows us to not appease or placate to others without serious consequences to our well being. When we engage with your style of communication, it can be difficult to integrate because it shines a light on how inauthentic we are and how we live on bullshit narratives. It’s like a mirror, either we self reflect or lash out- but it all comes from deep insecurities and avoidance of harsh truths about the ways in which we live. You could appease us more, but you choose not to. Whether that’s good or bad- I don’t know. But in twisted way, it can work in that it forces us to reckon with unappealing aspects of personality, to ultimately realize it’s irrelevant to when it comes to our own truth seeking journey.

Saying grace at the dinner table

This one's wild:

just when you thought you finally understood what a brat was ...

Awesome- quite an achievement, eh?

rule of thumb: don't drink and drive, call an Uber/Lyft/cab

A real life Frankenstein:

Write it down, take action. dont stop until you get the result. intrinsic motivation it’s key- you find this by deeply clarifying your ‘why’

If you don’t like drinking and loud music: Yoga studios, gym, parks, art festivals, coffee shops, Whole Foods / Trader Joe’s. Moving to big city is important - you also want to stay in fairly close proximity to where all the action is — metro/downtown and surrounding areas
