Just strolling somewhere through Brussels right now. And it’s Purple and it’s good.

Crazy how Russia seemingly sends these (poor and probably malnourished) North Koreans to die without real protection.

The woke mob : (

Yea and i’m not saying anti depressants aren’t helping some people a lot. But for some people they can make reality shakey and lower inhibition. I tried it myself but had to stop them when i made the drivers license because i was scared that i could just easily run somebody over with almost no f’s given.

Yes i do. Many of those American shooters have been on "antidepressants" or so i heard. America is over medicated and probably the most violent country in the West.

I wonder if she was on medication. SSRI, Benzos etc.

I think some of the pressure comes from feeling separate as Arabian said makes you feel unsafe a small self in a big dangerous universe. Then comparing self to others. Looks. Life, Successes, etc. Trying to fit into society etc. Then also this feeling/belief that this self, reality, moment, immediacy need to be better, different or "going somewhere" it not already being complete. Time. Expectations of others. Also just attachment and resistance to stuff. Like wanting attention.

I was just reflecting on that. And the pressure of being a person is wild. The pressure of being in time and having a future with death. The pressure of needing to get it right. Of being a good person. Of wanting to be liked and not rejected etc. Of looking good. The pressure of being a good mom, woman, son. Making the right decisions. The pressure of having a good life, being smart etc. I mean these things are obviously obvious if you heard of spirituality so you can call me captain obvious. But just the pressure aspect of it is what i was thinking about.

China doesn’t really have a better image though. Most people in the world would rather live in the West than in China.

Gosh

Not necessarily could just mean rich parents or "wrong" priorities. But it doesn’t matter anyway do whatever you like obviously.

There is no doer really there is seemingly no or almost no free will. So i highly doubt that you can decide anything really.

So who’s going to be our John Connor for the resistance?

Well maybe for less deep and non sensitive people it’s easy. Buddha said life is suffering. Trump probably doesn’t suffer much. You’re maybe more of Trump and i’m more of a Buddha nahmean? whatever just kidding.

Nice. And who will pay the wages of those people who lost the jobs? universal basic income?

Well maybe. Maybe it’s also because "a person" is trying to control stuff that can’t be controlled. Or maybe for other reasons. Or maybe for no reason. It’s unknowable anyway.

Yes but even the pressure to feel free and get to freedom is a pressure. Then one day you feel free the next constricted and then you’re pressuring yourself. Also the pressure we put on other people to be and act a certain way and do things for us. I guess it’s different for everyone but for me the pressure i put on myself and others has always been quite high. Just apparently, allegedly maybe it’s just energetic or whatever.

Cars are like the worst investment in terms of depreciation compared to a rolex or whatever. Also who are you going to show off to? Nobody cares about your car. Buy a small kia piccanto and you’re fine. I mean if cars are your thing fine. But just to show off?

What about cars?

I’d rather have a Rolex day date, presidential, sky dweller etc. than an african or hawaiian mask for sure.

That’s why i said maybe not specifically a Rolex but another swiss luxury wtch can just be appreciated as a nice piece. I can appreciate a rolex for it’s looks, mechanics and history. But i wouldn’t want one because its just the watch that every braggadocious guy and drug dealer etc had.

I did have a rice cooker already over 15 yrs ago. Grains do taste good.

Well i think for luxury swiss watches or whatever there is also the factor of appreciating the piece in terms of mechanical engineering and beauty, durability, history etc. Maybe less so a Rolex than compared to maybe a Patek or whatever but still. Also recently it’s a decent investment.

That grains taste horrible and 16 of your american weight make 1 delicious thing was mostly a joke. But then i went on to talk about gut issues and such but you guys seemingly only read what you want to see.
