Gosh, this is a feel

Very true. Similar with attraction. What we are attracted to is often not what we need - or what is good for us. I think maturity plays a huge factor as this can be the operating mechanism of inhibition.

DAT REVERSE UNO

ljafljflsjflsflsjf THE BEST STATEMENT ON THE FORUM

@Ramasta9 No. This is me telling you not to treat mods inhumanly.

@Stick I think this might be where your and Leo's difference is - not sure how he defines it?

@Ramasta9 If you don't understand - that is on you. Disappointed. Good day.

Comon man, can't you see how ironic this is? You are being very mean spirited to @UnbornTao You pick and choose which rules apply to you. I suppose you enjoy the benefits of the moderating we do. Keeping the forums neat & legible. Stopping spammers. Ensuring quality. Censoring vile namecalling. Attending to reported content. Spending time looking after members who are enduring hardships and mental health challenges. Stopping petty fights escalating. Stepping in when others are condescending or mean to each other. PMing members constantly about issues. This is unpaid volunteer work that often puts a dark colour on our OWN use and enjoyment of the forums. You don't have on single IOTA of what we do behind the scenes. But then you cry about policing conspiratorial thinking. We are doing our jobs upholding forum rules - but you take this ONE aspect of us doing our jobs personally and take it out on moderators. If you have an issue with policy - take it up with Leo. Take. It. Up. With. Leo. If you think we are robots who do not think - THINK AGAIN. And consider we arbiter the forum rules - outside of the small nuances we might agree or not agree with. Maturity. If you choose not to abide it is a matter of time before you self select out. So, ironically, you accuse others of being triggered. When it is you who is triggered. It is you who is attached to ideas and thoughts. Because when we call out your failure to honor epistemology, YOU take it personally. We are aware you are going through some hardships - many are. This is, however, NOT an excuse to be so passive aggressively constipated in posts towards mods.

@Valach I assume you watched the video?

@Tenebroso This would really be useful to you, if you take the moment to try to understand attachment theory:

@LoneWonderer I was going to link this. You beat me to it you fucken rat! It's Rogan 🤮🤢, but Bob! Clearly we are all just starved for UFO news 😁

You define a third world country based just on gdp?

Fuck you, Ames Window (many of you have probably come across this): Demonstrates our brains prioritise assumptions over raw data. Perception is a best guess not a direct feed, here we are predictively processing. Reality = sensory input + built in expections. Depth cues like perspective and motion are ambiguous... When two cues conflict the brain fucken brute forces it, picks one interpretation and makes it fit what it thinks will happen. What we are 'seeing' in reality is like a controlled hallucination mechanistically. The brain is constantly predicting, correcting errors and then making shit up to fill the gaps. I feel betrayed 💀

Fuck! I forgot about Garageband. I use it all the time Jesus 🥹🤣

...that you cannot believe is still free? For me its VLC, Blender. ffMPEG, OBS and Linux (to name what I use currently)

@Ramasta9 every statement is a confession.

@Stick I don't understand - are you implying a 3rd world country cannot be a dictatorship?

@Tenebroso you have NO IDEA what women want, or how they work. I cannot help but chuckle! Some things are on the mark, but then you are blind to the red pill stuff just hamfisted in there?!??! You can't see it?!???! There needs to be time spent critically assessing ideas and being aware of cognitive bias, prior to just absorbing it all. You will be much happier and get results! Regarding OP I think men/women are picky in different domains, so it's hard to compare. I think with social media and 'grass is always greener' comparison syndrome... Both sexes 🤣

@bazera exactly - it's horrifying! It puts into doubt all the 'knowing' we think we have. The power of not knowing

I think you very fundamentally confuse the absolute with the relative and speak as if they are synonymous. Solipsism is just a limit. It can never explain reality. It is a concept that relies on other presuppositions to hold up. You can use it to describe your experience, but not reality as whole. There's nothing direct about solipsism. It's just mind chatter with no relationship to what Is.

Do you mean character vs behaviour as an axis? To further bring nuance and flesh out terms. Identity is usually who we believe we are. Behaviour - what you do (the 'bricks') Character - your consistent patterns (the structure the bricks form over time) Identity - who we believe we are, or internal narrative (the blueprint/plans we build from) I see it as identity driving behaviour and those behaviours build into character with time.

@UnbornTao heh heh I must say, of the two versions: The one yellow, marked up below, is BY FAR the most venereal disease ridden POS. The arrogance to even call it a program 🤣

@Florian defending Bryan hard here. Can you show me where he addresses the issues with extending life when one is suffering, dealing with chronic pain or emotional distress ie personality disorders or pathologies? Some of these circumstances poke holes in his philosophy. And I haven't seen him even try to address this. Just avoid. It's super easy to be all sun and rainbows in a rich paradise.

@LoneWonderer holy shit. I dated someone who's extended family were all from Zimbabwe. Similar corruption in the police force with similar stories reported by his family. Maybe not to the level you shared....but bad enough!

You cannot grasp solipsism as a concept without some split; dualism. My mind Other minds. Inside. Outside. The concept of solispism can never be if you forget all. Never known.
