I mean I don't know, but one thought experiment I ran a while back for this exact question was this: If this is all god amusing himself, getting lost in a infinite dream, and all of history is happening right here right now in the mind and imagination of god what would be more fun than a game in which slowly but steadily level up? Level up in your congnitive, spiritual, moral and humanitarian faculties? As you move through the eons of time and space here in the present moment you play a game which at first you're no better that a brute monkey clubbing his percieved enemies with a club and you end up as a bodihsatva under a tree in peace and harmony with all and basking in the understanding of your true nature...only to then being the whole process all over again for infinity. Oh what joy! What a thrill! From a human lens there is all this suffering, death, war, abuse, but this is all percieved from a limited, small, biased, survival prioritizing perspective (if you cut an arm it bleeds). If you are infinite (god consciousness at the moment of death) there is no suffering. All's good baby! Yet we are humans right now and we have no choice but to engage in all the different games of the reality we have been incarnated into. Many, many different games for 8 billion humans on earth. These are just my mad man ramblings here...feel free to ignore.

Sounds cool dude, let us know what your experience was like!

Watched this one back in 2019. The movie started off innocently enough and got really dark towards the end. It's the only movie I've ever switched off because of how disturbing and emotionally uncomfortable it got. The funny thing is those kind of things happen in the real world to real people all the time. This movie really touched me emotionally as I had an ex girlfriend who went through a very similar process of selling her body to men in power to get ahead in life willingly yet probably not fully aware of what she was doing. It absolutely breaks your heart when you see someone you really love go down such dark paths. From her developmental stage that's just how the world worked and that's how you got to the top...now years later she hates men and is full of resentment towards them, and who can blame her. Very disturbing movie indeed. Another tv show I had to eventually stop watching as well was Mr Robot towards it's final seasons as again the show touched on very uncomfortable truths about power relations at work between females employees and their male bosses.

All Studio Ghibli works. Slice of life anime is my favorite genre for movies and tv shows. I like how slice of life celebrates the ordinary life and shows the beauty of just living simply, loving friends and family and being in harmony with your environment. Others anime include: - Your lie in April - Your Name - The boy and the beast - Summer wars - March comes in like a lion - Assassination Classroom - the disastrous life of saiki k I haven't watched an anime in 5 years or so though. The last one I saw was: The boy and the Heron by Studio Ghibli in the cinemas few years back. I like Studio Ghibli so much I kept the movie ticket as a souvenir 😅

Welcome to the most polluted country on earth... Bangladesh. I can image Bryan Johnson having a literal mental breakdown if he had to visit this place:

On the topic of corruption... Smart TV's: You spend lot's of cash on a nice big samsung 4K OLED TV and you wonder why the heck they lag so much.

https://youtube.com/@specialbooksbyspecialkids *Not sure if this one has been shared already. Special Books by Special kids. It's a great channel for people to get to know stories of people with all kinds of conditions and disabilities. Beautiful souls that most of us won't interact with in our daily lives. This channel helped me develop empathy and come to understand the incredible difficult struggles people with physical and mental disabilities deal with.

I'm struggling with clear vision of my trajectory moving into 2026 and beyond. There are things I'm aiming on achieving and goals I'm setting but they are not particularly enriching to the soul. Survival practical goals? Sure lots of that stuff taking place in 26' but those are limited in enriching one's experience here in this human life. I want to begin to be present in my life and body which I've spent my entire life being disconnected from. A really difficult challenge yet rewarding path moving forward would be dedicating true time to contemplation and a meditation or Kriya yoga practice. I also want to work more on rediscovering my own unique artistic style and grow in my artistic endeavors after stopping all my art 8 years ago. I had been a quite successful amateur photographer on the socials for 9 years all through my teens, I'd even been accepted into one of Denmark's top art/ digital media schools. Somewhere along the road i'd sacrificed my originality and creativity for content my audience liked and algorithms favored, it all became a downwards spiral from there and it ended with me deleting a quite successful socials account with all my years of work. These are just some thoughts I've been having as of the past half year but haven't acted upon yet.

Thank you! 🙏

In regards to the blog post on the gulag archipelago does anyone have an alternative link to the yt video? The video is blocked in my country. Cheers

Rich people get sold stories, experiences and social status symbols, the actual quality of what they are buying is often irrelevant. Brings to mind the video you shared on fake wine dealer, the 2500$ Balenciaga bag that looks just like an ikea bag and many more. Below I share another example of these corrupt scams designed just for rich people (Mostly Saudis who own Harrods where these phones are sold) in the tech sector. Notice has the phones are designed to be otragiously obnoxious just the type of things people of lower developmental stages like Trump, saudis and stage orange developmental stages like. The phones scream "look at me I'm someone important with a lot of money" but really they are hideous and impractical. But it's not just rich people, Labubus are a scam for social approval targeted at people of all income levels. This stuff goes deep. *Technically it's a phone, technically it does what you need it to do, it's just baaaad. Even the personal assistant the phone comes with is technically a scam/marketing gimmick to get you to buy the thing, when you are rich enough to spend money on such phones you probably already have a personal team of assistants in your life making the Vertu one obsolete.

On the topic of corruption - Olive Oil:

Two awesome shows you've named right there

This channel has great long form documentaries about the daily lives of people in developing nations and living in extreme poverty.
