  1. Haha. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/10/15/tesla-roadster-reveal-what-to-know-about-the-delayed-ev.html
  2. I have just started to become interested in psychedelics again as I spent more time on the forum. My interest in psychedelics was at an all time low and I wondered if I even wanted to take them again. Kind of yes to answer some questions but practically not really. Now I am a lot more interested in it. Great insight for myself
  3. I just finished the LP course a few days ago. I have been thinking about this moment for quite a while as I started this course more then 2 years ago. Not that I get all the missing answers here but maybe some advice from more experienced folks who are already living their LP. I am 25 now and I live in germany. I have got inattentive adhd which made many things very difficult for me like concentration, dealing with emotions and social problems which indirectly also made other things difficult like finding study partners or getting help with emotional distress difficult. So basically I was always an emotional mess/ overtaxed/ semi depressed while getting nothing done and not understanding what was wrong with me. As a result I had difficulties answering many questions in the life purpose course because I experienced relatively little concrete success so far because I couldnt really take part in life as much. I feel like I have got as close to it as what would be possible with my blockades but I feel like the very thing that is my LP is something I cant see right now. I take meds now and it seems like many things are clearing up rapidly but and I do make quite the transformation. I feel more capable but not necessarily upgraded. The stars become less interesting and I see more immediate tasks ahead. I become a lot more concrete instead of abstract. Thats the best way I can describe it. I seem to manifest myself in reality. I was always very reflected and stuff but was like a wave without its own will it can force onto the world. I develop a sense of self now. It sounds pretty unconscious I know and I made the point myself that adhd (at least the inattentive type that I experience) makes you more conscious. But in taking my meds I can deal with reality at least. If I got emotional support/ grounding maybe I could do it without meds but currently I can only do it this way. So this situation is quite confusing atm. In terms of my career so far: teaching: I am in 10th semester of studying math and philosophy for middle school but only have enough points to complete like 4 semesters (you need 10 semesters in total) because of the emotional distress I was always in. I could probably do better with the meds now so it really isnt hopeless. I decided to study teaching though because I did some internship to see what I like and teaching was okay for a moment and I couldnt deal with the pain of being in a situation of uncertainty so I did the best thing I found at the moment which wasn't the most conscious choice. Also there is a bit of buffer as with this graduation I can do other things as well. Teaching isnt directly my Life Purpose I am pretty sure about that. But I would earn a lot of money per hour, can do it part time, have a lot of holidays and a class in school gives you many direct information to observe which can inspire you. A school class is basically a mirror of society, all the kids are just mini versions of what's to come. So that can help me understand society and psychology more which would deepen whatever I create with my LP. I already thought a little and am also teaching 5 hours per week atm and it's an okay job. So it wouldnt be my LP but it would have a good base to comfortable pursue my real LP. acting: Over the last two years I have been doing a lot of acting as a hobby which is a lot of fun but it took a lot of time and I am also thinking about doing this as a career path. It would give me a relatively unstable base though and it would probably just miss my LP. Learning to act itself is incredible fun but it can also be emotionally challenging which I might not be capable to do. My Life Purpose is generally a bit unclear to me. Being a critical thinker is very much part of my authentic self and I have also got a very creative mind because of my adhd. On their own or even combined they dont really give me a life purpose that I find meaningful. For example I always think critically but I dont see where this practically leads to. And I often come up with new start up ideas because as I love the creative process but when it isnt connected to something meaningful I loose interest in it. The closest I could with these two is working on series like Rick&Morty which comes close to feeling like a LP. But I think there is a last component, a last value that is blocked from my mind. Besides these top two values I also care about empathy, goodness, authenticity, but not enough about any of them to make a LP in combination with the two about them I think. I sometimes look in my past to where the last puzzle piece might be. I developed a very profound even mystical happiness as a kid as I think that I had mystical experiences in kindergarden. I really vibed with Jesus in that time as well. I felt like it would virtually be impossible to break my spirit because I was connected to something unbreakable. I even felt like I needed to go through some real shit, to be lost, to come out of it and from that place be authentically able to help other people. I had a feeling of calling back then. Well I am not quite back to my inner garden of roses yet. I did about 20 trips of psychedelics and never realized a mystical experience because I was in too much shit mentally I think. (interestingly never had a really bad trip either though) I formulated my LP rather vague. I couldnt find any formulation that deeply inspired because as I said I think there is some authentic part of me missing. Taking my reflection about my past and moments of reflection I feel like it has to do with healing, bliss, profound love, existential (healing), spirituality. But I cant completely make out if these things interest me because I feel like I have a lack of them (negative motivation) or if it is authentic. To make my LP more concrete I could reformulate it like this for example (but I am not sure about it): - giving people blissful spiritual experiences to make them more loving and conscious. - finding existential beauty and meaning in fucked up situations to make people more hopeful So with all of this I have no clear direction of where to go and I found out new things about myself/ unblock blockades and this is probably going on for months and years to come. All ways would help me move forwards. If I study to become a teacher that would be an acceptable path which would allow me to do lots of other stuff (LP) I am interested in as well but then I could never study to become a serious actor because I would be too old at this point. I would need to become more clear about myself and my values to see what I value most. A side thought is also to experiment with start ups (for money) as I have lots of ideas for them. Right now I am thinking of continue studying while giving myself time to process and I can on the side apply to acting schools. Chances of getting accepted are pretty low anyways and if I get accepted that would be a sign that I am quite talented. Design ohne Titel.pdf
  4. The average reaction of a men to being the only male left on earth: Oh no (yes), capture me, what are you going to do with me. 😏👀
  5. Sad to see you go. You were one of the very first and few people I followed years back because you struck me as so smoart. All the best!
  6. I wanted to say that the hunter gatherer stereotypical roles play a large part in informing other roles that came on top of that, grounded them in a sense which is why they are important to the ego and which is why the conversation is so charged. I dont know where you are coming from with people viewing women as an object back then.
  7. I think its deeply connected to our identity/ ego and our place in the world/ justifiction for our role in society.
  8. Ah okay, still somehow this is the point where it ended..
  9. The thread is quite a warzone lol. Remember we lost Eliott in it, now Emerald says she is on the brink.. I also rarely loose my cool on the forum from what I remember but with this thread I lost it.. And the topic isnt even that complicated but sooo emotionally charged.
  10. I remember that I made huge progress in socializing when I had my first f+. Or possibly every girl I vibe with. The lat one was a terrible experience. Dating/ Getting a gf is really an important new step for me.
  11. Object design idea, a couch made out of dicks but the top all aligned in a way that you can lay on them like with table tennis outer pimples. I am sure someone would buy it. My mind is getting really unhinged wow.
  12. I would be interested to know what the risks are from doing it once. I like to try many things once to collect the experience and perspective but I wonder if that is already kind of risky.
  13. What I find interesting is that those who think of themselves as though and stoic are so impressionable emotionally. Well maybe there is no mistake.
  14. Self aware Trump voters would be like: Its so stupid, but it feels so good!
  15. Oh men, I was relaxing the whole week because I was sick but its not super easy to get my system working again. Got quite a few things to do.
  16. Then I dont understand your comment without elaboration. How do you put masculinity and not repressing emotions together?
  17. But thats simply because physical strength matters much more much if you have only primitive tools and so naturally men will take on physically demanding tasks and will built a personality that fits this role. But the root is simply muscle, nothing more. Thats an is-ought fallacy. Just because it is/ was a certain way doenst mean it was good/ should remain that way/ or doesnt have equally good or better alternatives.
  18. So is that where you would draw the line between toxic and healthy masculinity?
  19. I was led to belief that masculinity sort of IS repression of emotions. You have got a challenge, lets say a dangerous one, you feel all sorts of ways about it, for example scared. That feeling of being scared would lead you to run away. However lets say running away would endanger people you love. So you push that feeling of being scared away, create a sort of fearless alter ego to rise up to the challenge and handle it like a men. And that sort of dynamic not just in this particular situation but chronically to face lifes challenges. NO?
  20. Interesting perspective which I havent considered yet. The warmongering of NATO is something I am sceptical about though. What war mongering? NATO is defensive alliance against russia. First and second world war were before NATO and well both european countries started and solved the conflict largely internally (+ russia, USA and Japan in WW2) although I am sure other countries around the globe felt the effect. The US involves itself in stupid wars sometimes and european countries sometimes support that. Thats problematic for sure.
  21. Isnt this getting old when you learn that homophobia is dumb. Like when I see this, I remember that I used to find this funny as a teen, but it was also kind of homophobic and immature. .. The thread starts to smell like heteronormative dick
  22. Well no, probably not, but a bit of chest is managable. Not all men are into giant chests, I dont really mind for example, I am more of an ass guy. But that a sizeable proportion of men are attracted to them doesnt mean they all head it or that its evolutionarily wanted. Men were attracted to absurd curves back in the day as well. And btw. the men also have to keep their dick in check without underwear.
  23. The people in these tribes are often much skinnier because they are very active and dont have abundance of food. So the women there also have smaller breasts on average.
