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 💀

You're not wrong - I see 20% tauted by reputable people who study attachment theory and dating patterns. But then my experience says... Fuck no.

@AerisVahnEphelia rofl it always comes down to projecting the spigot

@Lila9 heh heh so tldr - it's all shit in different forms? Poking fun, but I agree. It's easy to look on externally and form some opinions from that surface; the reality of living it is another thing entirely.

You know - when you remove problems from people. It reveals this big empty hole inside they have never faced. An unoccupied, un-inspected place. When we are first confronted with it - it gets slapped with 'boredom' or 'understimulated'. But if you sit with it, you reveal what cannot be spoken. You connect with breath - how we connect to reality moment to moment. But yeah most people fucken hate the mundane that is underneath their drama and problems. So they just make some more to replace the old 🤣🤣🤣

Listen - you were passive aggressive and mean to a moderator in this thread. No amount of constipated smiley faces is going to bury that. We arbiter the rules. One of which, is no conspiracy theories. Don't get all bent out of shape when we point this out to you - and point out the flaws in that type of thinking. Mods do a job. If you have an issue with the job - TALK TO LEO. But I know you won't. I'm done. I cannot be any clearer. Nothing confusing going on but some mental gymnastics from you deciding which rules apply to you and which don't.

@Ramasta9 You break a rule, don't take it personal when mods address it. You're still taking it personally. You're still attaching to your ideas like they are you. Got a problem with a rule? Appeal to Leo. Clear steps to escalate.

Its sorta weird cos I feel like red pill isn't even used as a term anymore. But the idea behind it persists. In a simplified way it appears it's just - broken people attract broken people. Both aren't able to recognize secure healthy love and approach it with their own beliefs (and loaded expectations) regarding what love is. The again, these days, who actually gets raised right to KNOW secure love? There are many who claim there are only around 20% of people with healthy attachment styles. And those people typically do not use dating apps, and pair up relatively quickly. I've already been through my own healing from a lot of the wrong ideas of what love is.

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! 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 🤣
