Creatine only

Still no argument or facts.

If you would enjoy my personal perspective? I align with Leo 100% regarding sobriety until well into your 20s. You want to let your brain fully develop and mature without its structure forming with the addition of substances that can destablise you. In every person I know who engaged in substance use prior to mid 20s, emotional disregulation occured. This emotional disregulation interferes with cognitive clarity & ability. Discipline and control of ones faculties is compromised with internal disregulation. There are some individuals who are genetically very resistant to external substance abuse, but it is not a fire you want to risk being burned by. There is simply a HUGE amount of insight, beauty and intelligence to be absorbed from sobar reality. Enough to extract and keep you occupied until later when you wish to engage on the psychedelic path. The ability to delay gratification is a powerful indicator of self mastery. It will teach you to sit with discomfort. I was pretty much sobar until 23 years old. Perhaps one or two drinks, a couple of puffs of weed once. Hardcore psychedelics for me came around 28. It is hard to resist if you are high openness and insanely curious 😁

I don't really think it's solely on a man to do that. Only that persuit and chasing definitely doesn't mean neediness. I think striving, chasing and persuit are masculine traits (if we want to split the typical traits to masculine / feminine). Tbh I think Leo and I are using different terms 🫪 perhaps negative connotations with the word 'chasing'

Only if you are attached or overly dependant on outcome. If you aren't defining the outcome as a reflection of yourself or abilities in any way it's not neediness. It's not that clear cut imo. This is the essence of confident persuit from a masculine man. It comes from want, not need.

You are defining terms differently is all. I personally think insecure women think being persued by a man is gross. I've never been turned off by this. Neediness is something else entirely. I am not speaking about neediness.

@Leo Gura I do not agree. Persuit for a man is a big thing in my experience, in attraction phase. Within the bounds of relationship I can understand containment might mean the feminine leans in the structure of the masculine. But chasing stops at that point. Or it should, in a healthy mature relationship. Containment/stability is different to chasing/persuit.

This is simply algorithm lead rhetoric. It's doing you no good. It's signalling significant cognitive bias and placing you firmly in a powerless, victim mindset. There are some truths there, but they are insidiously woven in with unhealthy dynamics that do not speak to the truth of women. More generalisations to justify hatred. It's aim is to castrate your power. Take it back and question all these narratives.

Are you speaking about attraction phase or within an already bonded relationship?

Ftfy

You'll have to actually argue a case for this. Otherwise, no. Not simple.

Speckled white Mitsubishi's, single 4k hz constant pure tone from the speakers, saucer eyes staring at a white felt tip pen to manifest pure zen state ^n! Where n=1,2,3.... No sense to be had 🫪🫪🫪

It depends on how it transpires, I suppose. By my instincts tell me my dog. Reflexive no-brain action in the moment. But it's impossible to know. Anyone who has faced these sorts of situations knows it almost feels as if there is no decision. Just action.

Holy shit so much ignorance around therapy in this thread. Talking to someone about issues is NOT complaining. MY GOD.

Mad cow has been a thing since I was a chicklet

Love it. thanks for the share. Guy seems highly intelligent.

Never said one trait is better. Never said sex is everything. Every statement I make is something I embody. Yes this is a spiritual forum - but your views arent in the name of spirituality. Yes looks mean nothing. So you shouldn't discriminate in that case ☺️ You said it 'looks mean fuck all'. So by that, no action ever needs to be taken by you in arrogance, to try to tell another what looks mean. If looks mean fuck all, why do you act and say otherwise? You're just making more of a case for your cognitive dissonance.

Don't do it. Huge mistake.

My half brother reports the same - he was the one who pasted this meme to me (he is diagnosed with ADHD). He dropped out of high school (much to my anger, but Mum was okay with it) due to his inability to focus. He is in a trade apprenticeship as a steel worker now. He refuses meds.

It's funny. The range of GLP1 peptides, and their success in producing weight loss, sort of proves.... It's excess calories. Put down the fork. Who would have known LOL

Actualized Quote #537 Video game studios / software development are good examples of this push/pull juxtaposition of fine balance.

@Breakingthewall repeating the same thing in different words does not adequately get around the mistake of equating lack of perceived difference with no experience.

The argument works as a model explaining how complexity, life, and symbolic processing build structured consciousness, but it mistakenly equates lack of perceived difference with absence of experience. It overreaches by tying duality and consciousness too tightly to life and symbolism. Duality isn't exclusively tied to life. 'life is required for duality'??? Hot. Cold. Particle/particle. Life enables functional duality (self vs environment) not duality itself. It ultimately explains how consciousness is organized and expressed, but doesn’t resolve why subjective experience exists at all, leaving the core issue identified by David Chalmers (hard problem of consciousness) still unanswered.

Actualized Quote #536 I appreciate this one 🙏🏻 I work really hard to build medical facilities to support society and give back in some way!
