  1. Thats an interesting Post. I let many things die. But with this standard its hard to even get a gf. https://www.actualized.org/insights/falsehood-deserves-to-die
  2. 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. Socially what happens to me right now is that I can finally arrive. Thats what I wanted in my old theatre club all along. Arrive and then slowly integrate intimate connections when it feels good.
  5. I "let myself go" a little bit and regularely buy brown lentil soup and baked beans. The ingredients list is minimal. The flavour and convenience is so much better though. Put half the lentil Soup in a glass bowl, smash an egg in it, microwave for 5 minutes and you have a solid meal. Ofc cooking it fresh would be better but I know I wouldnt do it as often then. Is it a big deal? How well regulated are cans nowadays?
  6. I havent posted as much recently, which indicates things are going well. Which they are. Lots of social progress. On RV for a few days I enjoyed it a lot more. Kinda thought I got it finally. Its not as easy and that kind of thinking might hinder me a bit. But generally I am on a better track. Being emotionally stirred up seems to be the main thing which prevents me from doing good RV work.
  7. I always wonder if a piece of shit can smell itself.
  8. Whenever a lower stage in spiral dynamics misbehaves there is always a bunch of material for the higher stage to work with. If people become agressive and tribal-ish stage blue becomes horny to order everything. When orderly people act like dumb sheep, wallstreet people become horny to gain money and influence. And looking at what is going on in the US, there is plenty of material for empathy.
  9. Yeah it would massively help their reputation but they would be seen as a massive hypocrit if they then go on to invade Taiwan. Maybe they can postpone that for a bit. And all of these trade deals with the US are also a bit of a protection. If that all falls apart then what does the US loose when they (further) violate international law. Lol, wtf am I saying. Okay so some form of reaction needs to be had like a big round of tarrifs but maybe not overdo it so much that the US goes "fuck it, whats there to loose anyway". And again, your Links dont work.
  10. Nice. Maybe in the time of need some unexpected friends arise. The military itself might even strike. But we better not let it come to this.
  11. Trump and Putin are lovebirds. The investment of the US hasnt fully stopped, but its just a fraction of what it was before. https://usafacts.org/answers/how-much-foreign-aid-does-the-us-provide/countries/ukraine/?utm_source=chatgpt.com This graph doesnt actually show the weapons, loans, intelligence, ... which adds about another 100 Billion the total 100 Billion USAID support. In 2026 USAID it will be something like 400 Million plus 800 Million in military support. ... If US support stopped the biggest hit would probably be the loss of US intelligence. France can also provide, but not with the same quality. Why do you think China would work together with Europe in sanctioning the US ?
  12. Doesnt make a difference. Drones are categorically much easier to hit, thats why old tech works. Bro the first link doenst show the video and the other links dont work again. Yeah they should act fast. Everyone is shaking from making a statement to the US. Well at least some European countries sent a few soldiers there on a mission symbolically. When the US takes Greenland, Nato will be gone and so will the support of the US for Ukraine right .. ? If European countries make a statement like a tarrif threat of all of NATO countries + combined if the US takes Greenland and it fails and Trump still takes Greenland, that is basically the same outcome as when Trump takes Greenland without resistance which would lead to the resolution of NATO anyway.
  13. Shooting down drones is orders of magnitude easier then shooting down a fighting yet. I read a bit about operation rough rider. The US destroyed 800 targets and lost 7 unmanned drones in the process. Read that the two F/A-18 Super Hornets were lost in operational accidents, maybe thats propaganda idk. It would be more costly to attack Iran yeah .. You made the point about sanctioning the US if they want to take Greenland. I like the idea more and more. So many countries around the world want a rule based world. You could start with an agreement of all NATO states to sanction the US if they take Greenland and look for more countries around the world to join that agreement. Imagine you get an agreement of half of the countries on this earth threatening tarrifs on the US for destroying the rule based world. That would be a ballsy thing to do.
  14. Oh no, I also dont think its going to happen. I just think the US would have the capacity, if they really wanted to, to destroy Irans military tech. They can shoot down a Boeing perhaps, but B-2 stealth bombers are designed to not be detected by high tech air defense. Without High Tech I think its unlikely you have a chance to shoot down the B-2s. The bunker breaker bombs cost that much, the other bombs are way cheaper.
  15. I am an anti-chameleon It constantly get hurt because of it but I cant help but to be this way
  16. There needs to be a Life is Strange game about the US regime right now with ICE. So much heartbreaking stuff going on right now can easily fill the story line of the game.
  17. Okay, beggs the question if the Air Defense is advanced enough to shoot down the Jets. The B2 bomber could do some tactical bombing of air defense first. None of your links work
  18. Any major basis could just get bombed to the ground by the US and big pieces likes tanks or Jets dont really stand a chance imo but they can loose against Guerilla tactics on the ground. Thats a good point. I cant picture the actual numbers of what recources the US really have. If they wanted to take controll on the ground I am sure they would need to put everything in there and would possibly even loose because they are outnumbered.
  19. @Elliott Okay that point I can understand. But if you own a whole country militarily with minimal losses, thats still a show of strength. Trump said he would help in Iran. That he backs down now is a bigger show of weakness then loosing a Jet.
  20. Worth 23 Billion US Dollars ... Obviously you dont give away everything.
  21. What losses if you just coordinate strikes on air defenses with bombing afterwards. US has a huge technological advantage.
