Or I should add.. I don't always feel that I have free will. For example I can't stop myself from things like masturbating, etc. Completely impossible.

But the free will debate is pretty much pointless. Because 1: it very much feels like we do have free will, no matter which conclusion we make about the subject. And 2: because it's impossible to know for sure whether we have free will or not. You can only believe that we have or don't have it. And you can believe that you know whether we have it or not.

One thing I have been thinking about is.. if we don't have free will, then why is it sometimes super difficult to make a decision? I'm not sure what the english word for it is, maybe "decision anxiety"? And even decidophobia exists. So why would that stuff exist without free will.

There you go. And you started the conversation with: "I am consciousness. You are consciousness. The universe is consciousness. This is God." So it knew exactly what it should talk about. Just a unconscious stupid program.

I think I will try to watch it all in one sitting while getting high on energy drinks. Might be a fun thing.

Eat less. The end.

Interesting.

No I don't.

They don't get the stuff out of thin air. They have been programmed and they suck more and more information all the time. After every conversation with a human it learns (gets programmed) more. So of course you can talk about anything with it.

"Perfect brilliant stillness" by David Carse is similar to Jed, but less rambling, more to the point, less personal stories, and no constant sexual adventures (since Jed is always hanging around with women, many of which are beautiful. I assume he sleeps with them, but he doesn't admit it in the books. Maybe that's why he's anonymous.)

Eh.. Well, they have just programmed it with classic nonduality teachings. That sounds like a copy/paste from the classic nonduality teaching.

@SaWaSaurus How is it possible that consciousness/life/sentience/qualia emerges from dead matter? It would be like making wine from only water.

See it as a good sign, because popular people who are liked by many also have some haters.

Caffeine is nice because who doesn't like a more alert mind. And coffee (just caffeine doesn't do it) gives me a little temporary boost of happiness. But the effect probably disappears if you drink coffee every day.

That would be nice, but it's not possible. Yes.

@snowyowl Hi. Yes I've had the job for a while. I wouldn't like any job anyway. There's no career which I would like. I hate everything. Or maybe it would be nice to get paid for having sex with hot girls (being a pornstar), but that's of course not possible.

But I am. I want Leo to repeat that stuff to me over and over again until I get a complete mental breakdown, I want to get my entire reality destroyed.

@Leo Gura I wish you would sometime go all-in with this kind of stuff: "Everything you perceive right now is a dream. Including me. You are just talking to yourself now. I am you. I'm just a part of your dream. You are just imagining that I'm a separate conscious entity. You are dreaming up me and everything else right now. There is no one else. There is only You. You are God. You are this. This is it."

Venting again.. I think this is the worst day of the week for me, the day before a new workweek starts again. I seriously don't want this shit anymore. If I ever kill myself it will probably be on the day before a new workweek. Another thing which is on my mind: it's not fun to be a worthless loser who isn't liked by anyone. Everyone are better than me, everyone. It's almost weird how it's possible to be the biggest loser on the entire planet. I guess that's the only thing I'm good at.

If that's seriously how you feel... then you are lacking empathy.

No I'm not.

I think people who are against dating suicidal people are shallow, selfish, cold hearted, cruel, lack empathy, etc. I wouldn't mind dating someone suicidal. I would almost prefer to date someone like that. It's much more interesting to be deep with someone. Also the dark side should be explored.

I don't know. Maybe consciousness is non-local.

I would consider that evidence yes. (With the assumption that I would be in a good state of consciousness and the experience would be vivid, detailed, and feel completely real etc. etc.)

I don't think you can. But some people do it anyway..
