It sounds like a beautiful concept! Unfortunately awakening, enlightenment and 'higher consciousness' individuals do not transcend incentive structures and genetics. Some of the most profound words can come out of a user, followed by the most offensive attack on someone else. Everyone has their conditioning they are progressing through. Humans are very strange. I would be nice not to have moderators. You guys also don't see all the beneficial stuff the moderators do. It is human nature to fixate on the negative and amplify it.

I think this points toward the limits of intimacy that can be achieved through a large social platform with some degree of anonymity to it. Radical honesty would be used against Leo imo. Which is why it is understandable there are some levels of intimacy never expounded upon. Anyone in Leo's position would be wise to never ever reveal anything deeply personal through online mediums. Obviously this will lead to some level of disconnection from users / followers. + Isolation for Leo (to a degree). The caveat being, it may dehumanise him in a way and justify some harsh judgement from others. From another pov it could be looked at as professionalism. On the flipside, this means we only have his choice of expression to judge - and this topic is highlighting some of the worst of it. And it is not professional.

Compassion doesnt meant tolerance. They get lumped together quite a lot. Tolerance is allowing a behaviour or situation in your space. Compassion is recognising another's suffering and caring about it. You mess up personal boundaries when the two concepts are conflated. Similar to explanation / justification. Explanation isn't justification but one slides into the next for many people. Landing them in situations that shouldn't be tolerated.

Dude this is just your opinion. And your opinion doesn't mean anyone else is a liar. It is just a bias. Sadia as an individual appears shady & slimy - yes. But stop with the wild discrimination against attractive WOMEN. I never hear this claim from you about attractive men - do they too deserve to be treated like pieces of shit (as you have intimated on previous occasions)?

Proper socialization and talking to chicks will do it. Social game - they call it? You will end up desensitized to the novelty / nervousness. Which will let you sink into authenticity. Which women love. You will walk away with skills in how to read girls. I know they teach spam approach, but I also surmise they must be emphasizing assessing women's body language, signals etc? I am also assuming you get to a breakpoint where you see less rejection because you read the 'yes' signals from the chick better and are hitting the mark.

More Braden Peters roasting. Good. There are some users here who where beginning to be hypnotized by this crispy braindead amoeba.

What do you think/feel when you see a collated review of past expletives from dialogues across the forum like this? Do you chalk most of this up to frustration and heavily context driven? Does it cause you to raise your standards for communication, or review them? And the biggest question I am most curious about - if someone DID understand to the level or beyond, that you perceive yourself to understand, how would you know or identify this? What if you are failing to identify this simply because the words you choose differ in descriptive capacity to those another may use? Or do you look for some specific barometer of expression that would indicate someone on your level (so to speak)? We know you are an introspective fella - genuinely curious. N.B. obviously you can choose not to answer, no pressure

I don't think AI is going to take anyone's job outright - but I think the person who knows how to use AI will.

@AION You are applying one solution to a completely different domain.

Holy shit. Yes. If you have to put any effort into consistently maintaining some fucken 'frame' its just some farse. It isn't confidence. And it will just implode on you later. No one got time for that shit. Just be genuine and earnest to who you are. Cannot believe this needs to be said, but here we are.

People can grow in different directions. When values diverge, the relationship ending isn’t necessarily someone’s fault. It can be incompatibility becoming visible. This is also where the saying 'Sometimes love isn't enough' comes from. It isn't healthy to pathologize normal human drift.

Ha! To think anyone could frame control me. To think that is healthy. Imagine if this were flipped and I was speaking about doing this to men...

Not sure about this - Shawn, Dallas and Rich all died from heart issues/attacks/disease. They were all on so much gear and so many other drugs that could have contributed to their deaths. I haven't heard anyone claim peptides alone were to blame, and tbh they were on so much undisclosed shit I do not think there is any definitive evidence one single drug did it.

Yeppppppp People seem to forget the environmental and economical impact they are driving. Destroying technology prices also. Power and water.

You actually do not know where I stand. You've never directly asked this.

Not directed at you. Appeared to me, from my perspective, you just tried to understand more here ╮⁠(⁠＾⁠▽⁠＾⁠)⁠╭

@Ramasta9 yes, my rule is no screens and no online stuff while tripping. Ever. Music is the exception. I've adhered to this for the last 10 years.

Ah! I meant - impossible to know if it was genuinely taken on board, considered, and rejected. Or if it was simply speed read over and no attempt was made to understand. I do agree there are some ways to deduct it though

Do we expect poo?

Sadhguru? No thanks, I don't want to be lectured about bad dirt all night 🤣🤣🤣

Some people aren't smart enough to pick their battles 💀 Energy investment

Was gonna say - if I were the girl I would notice immediately and call it. Having said that I am pretty direct. And expect that candidness in return. I don't think that is typical by any means. It's an interesting double edged sword as an attractive women - or wanting to enhance your appearance to attract a man. You risk drawing someone to you that will value that highly. So when looks begin to fade you sort of shoot yourself in the foot; you worry about the man being attracted to you. In addition, being good looking can also be a block to anyone seeing you beyond the outer appearance. Something to think about for the men who think it is easier for a women to attract in general. Everything in life has its drawbacks; they just aren't always immediately apparently until we look at the deeper mechanisms at play. Not to say you think this way @Miguel1. Just that your post, and the dialogue in this thread, prompted me to think on this. Always appreciate the users here. Even when I don't agree 😁

Sometimes messages are not acknowledged, and do not always need to be, for them to still be received. Impossible to know.

Hahaha! This sentence alone should be generating checksum errors in Owens head. It's generating checksum errors just as a standalone sentence ffs! 🫠

Holy FUCK this is some intense Warhol-esk shit right here..... And I LIKE it Space cadet 👽 You'd be interested to know I just got done building a compounding pharmacy. 3 laminar flow cabinets, 2 cytotoxic and 3 airlock passthroughs. 9 columns were built down with mechanical conduit in sandwich panel with HEPA filters for a tiny space with only 3 working rooms. The air filtration system in there is the most intense shit I have ever seen. Those 9 columns contain duct work totally isolated that vents to an entire steel platform (fit with mechanical filters) we constructed on the roof. The sterility needed to fabricate medical compounds is so high. We stand no chance to isolate ourselves from air pollution. The air has to be near perfect in that space - and the STILL have to use laminar cabinets. Full hazmat gear too. Best we can do is minimise it. The lab techs who work in there laugh at how unsterile the rest of the hospital is. And it's a hospital! Infection control is serious. But they still use chemicals/fragrances that leach out into the air that make the guys who work in the compounding pharmacy die inside.
