Lol. Ok.

I remember back in 2016-17 when the city was restored by Al-Assad forces and I went back home to check if it's still there lol. I was in the alley and I saw the soldiers breaking into houses and stealing everything of value that's in there. So, I got into the family's house and waited, and I was alone along with very few people in other nearby houses. When the turn came to our house, they started trying to break the main door, so I got up and told them to stop. They became vigilant, thinking that I was of the opposition or something. With an AK-47 to my head, they started questioning me. I was surprisingly very calm at the time, thanks to my Islamic beliefs and mantras, I felt safe despite of everything, I was ready to die. But there was an aura of innocence radiating from me that even those monsters could feel. Anyway, a few minutes later, they took my wallet and left the house alone and went away to complete with the rest of the houses. Funny thing is that I was carrying two phones and they didn't find any of them, one of them carried potentially sensitive videos that could be interpreted against me. I was lucky, I guess. But I basically protected 7 apartments from theft with a wallet that contained less than $10 at the time lol.

Even though biased and propagandized, it has some truth to it. Basically, the story is true, but the way it is framed is not. They portray the victims as innocent peaceful protesters, but that's very unlikely the case. At the very least, they could be part of the armed opposition's intelligence. But the report doesn't allow such a possibility, because Al-Assad is a war criminal and you should hate him because I told you so.

Sigh.

I would start by understanding the concept of programming in general, and for that, it doesn't matter much the language you choose. But I know that many IT universities teach C++, so that might be ideal. Once you get a hold on the fundamentals, the rest is just syntax, which differs from language to another but is easy to pick up on, you can even learn multiple languages after you get past the learning curve, there's not much difference between the most popular ones as far as I know. Your focus shouldn't be on which language to choose, rather it should be on how to understand the computer language in general and the fundamentals of programming, like variables, functions, etc.

Nothing ever is a waste of time. At the very least you'll get to earn an interesting story to share with others, which helps your social status. So do whatever you like, there's no wasted time except on suffering.

Not necessarily, but it can be. I have come up with something I call the efficacy factor in relation with resources, which basically indicates how good someone is at generating value out the available resources they have. Careful observation reveals that most people have extremely low efficacy, and very few have it normal, let alone high. That means most people don't know how to generate value from the resources that they have, and so they waste a lot of resources mindlessly. I find myself to be on the higher spectrum, and I can do a lot with very little, but I guess I could still improve some more. I still have some unrealized potential that can make me even more efficient once realized.

Paradise can turn into hell with abuse, and hell can turn into paradise with care.

Compliments are best given when and where they're least expected. First date, she absolutely knows you like her appearance. So, there's no point in stating the obvious.

I don't think memory decrease is the most accurate description. For me, meditation has made the memories hazy, or in other words it detached me from them as if they have stopped being mine anymore. I don't think I have lost any of my memories. I can remember things as vividly as anyone else, I think the main difference is that I don't have that on the fly and that I might need some time to get absorbed in the thoughts. Though, I might fail at that, and in many cases that's actually fine and even preferred.

Reminds me of Monopoly when the game is about to end, only that it won't in this case.

I'll meditate on this and contemplate, and then I may give my answer.

If this was true, then logical nerds would be the most attractive, but they aren't. Femininity doesn't require grounding, it requires containment. Think about hypergamy in terms of personality. Grounding is hypogamy, which is not attractive. The feminine wants to expand in the limits of the masculine, but for that to happen, the masculine must be bigger than the feminine.

The past is over. You can't rewind. Think about how you can avoid making the same mistakes in the future, then release the guilt, shame, et. and move on. There's literally no point in guilt-tripping yourself. No positive outcome to have and no one to benefit. Quite the contrary.

The answer depends on the paradigm we're using. If we take non-duality as that paradigm, then they are and aren't separate paradigms both at the same time, you could say neither as well. If we take the conventional dualistic paradigm, then they are separate. If we take the dream paradigm, then they aren't separate at all.

Tell them you want to fuck, and you will win either way.

Thanks for this insight. I kinda do that subconsciously all the time, but bringing this to the conscious mind could potentially take my productivity to a whole new level.

@Knowledge Hoarder But we can aim at a specific target, and that's the most important thing in life. To have a pee purpose

I'm not sure, but it sounds like another variant of the "self-referential thoughts" concept.
