All my masters were highly disciplined and humble. There's something humbling in falling/being choked hundreds of thousands of times.

It's good to see how much we came to optimize them, but in a certain way, that homogenized the landscape. MMA has specific rules, and everyone is trying to get into it because of the money. We will tend towards losing traditional arts in the long run. At the same time, actual martial arts (fighting techniques for war) are way less prevalent in the industrialized world and will be even less so. Jiu-Jitsu was born as a way of harming opponents even with armor on, and that was relevant when people had to fight in close combat. We lost those techniques to time and the same will probably happen with the market pressure flattening out the techniques people use.

Taking it after a meal might help.

Americans are too fat to maintain a civil war for a long time. After a while, they will give up ideals for having Netflix and KFC back.

It's not that simple. Research Fractional Reserve Banking.

Don't start anything, but take no shit. If he speak or do something funny with your girl, you protect her.

He's limiting data scrapping. Zuck will probably follow suit.

https://classic.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04516746 Don't believe every single thing you hear an old man say. That's literally the first result of a 4-word google search.

Who appealed to authority? I'm stating that spreading misinformation about one of the greatest health solutions in history is harmful. Many crippling, killing diseases were eradicated thanks to vaccines.

LSD with MDMA is a very nice experience.

Use google.com, my dude: https://www.google.com/search?q=best+frying+pan+for+health&rlz=1C1GCEU_pt-BRBR1020BR1020&oq=best+frying+pan+for+health&aqs=chrome..69i57j0i22i30l3j0i390i650l2j69i60l2.5944j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

The bi-partisan system promotes the scenario Tanz stated. With corruption and low standards, the value of votes is reduced to almost nothing.

https://www.redalyc.org/journal/4417/441762758002/html/ This is one study. Your conclusion of performance is misguided. There are few differences in performance between affirmative action students and regular admission ones. Most people that get affirmative action admissions see this as a gateway out of poverty and work hard to graduate and ascend the social ladder. You say about green stage knee jerk, but you're coming from an orange stage knee jerk here.

There are some nasty diseases that are nearly eradicated thanks to vaccines. Tuberculosis, leprosy, mumps, measles, rubella, polio... All of these ruin the lives of people, especially children. I hope for the better of people that the anti-vax sentiment doesn't spread. I don't want to live in a world where a 10-year-old child becomes infertile because their parents don't understand basic biology.

Had to search this, wish I hadn't.

I never had to be an asshole to get laid. So I don't get this at all. Maybe we have very different definitions of what respect is. I have never seen anyone, male or female, that was developed and tolerated disrespect.

I meant what a mushroom that weighs 30g physically look like. That must be a huge muscaria.

They were squished out of the tin can. But some of it must be inside too.

This helps quench the fire of polarization. Being a bit bland prevents people from your side from idolizing you, and people from the opposition from ideologically crucifying you. That may contribute to some very important bills being passed. He's the best America could do at the moment of the last election.

That's not the woman you're after. Any woman with self-respect would cringe at that behavior by a man. There's a very clear difference between worshiping a woman you just met and being respectful to her. One important concept is "managing to climb the wrong ladder". You can PUA your way into sleeping with 100 women you should have never even spoken to. That won't lead to a fulfilling relationship and is a monumental waste of time. It might even lead to finding a woman that has the potential of being a great long-term partner and being unable to have a proper relationship with her because your experience is dealing with the "degenerate club girl" people are so annoyed with. Smart women know they have the seduction power to get any man they want, and if they're developed they will choose a partner that's also developed and properly treats and respects her. That has nothing to do with "'not having frame", "not leading the interaction" and "bowing to every demand she has". It has to do with developing a relationship with someone that is present, conscious, improving, and that can provide her with the safety and guidance she needs. You can have all that without being a generic Andrew Tate wannabe.

You can only justify things such as slavery and segregation with a whole society predicated on dehumanizing the group of people you're exploting. Race was never really much of a thing until the Crusades. Then it became a tool for rallying people into the holy wars and later still was used to justify slavery and colonialism. This video is amazing summary of the history of that process: You can also see how recent the impact of institutions had on black people in the US here: Amazing video, although it's long. It's eye opening to see how much how early the racism debate is mainstream.

This question is poetry.

Peru has the Seven Color Mountains and Machu Picchu. Brazil is straight-up heavenly in natural beauty. Other interesting countries, in my opinion, are Argentina and Chile. The problem with traveling in South America is the difficulty of communication in non-tourist areas. Most people don't speak good English or do so very poorly. Bigger cities are slightly better.
