If it's a healthy relationship, a long term relationship comes with growth aspects that can't be missed.

I liked the coconut example she gave. Lot of meaning there. Her diplomatic skills are good and she can easily evade a question without creating tension. That would be great for foreign relations.

@integral what AI is that?

In what perspective is the chicken considered human? By the way I liked the Spinoza perspective.

Can Kamala Harris become the next President?

I think you need to figure out your life purpose. It could be a small thing to give you a start. A kick out of the rut so to speak.. It sounds like you've had a really tough time, but it's also clear that you have a lot of strength and resilience. Acknowledge whatever small progress you have made. You've overcome a lot in the past – kicking smoking and drugs, losing weight, and building muscle are all incredible feats of willpower. Don't diminish those accomplishments. Build your focus gradually... Focus on small wins. Trying to overhaul your entire life at once can be overwhelming. Instead, set small, achievable goals. Maybe it's going for a 15-minute walk a day or replacing one junk food meal with a healthier option. Celebrate these wins, no matter how small, as they'll build momentum. You mentioned meditation worked for you before. It's a great tool for managing stress, improving focus, and developing self-awareness. Consider incorporating a short meditation practice (even 5 minutes) into your day, it will do you good. Maybe find a cozy place that charges you up. Olanzapine and antidepressants can affect motivation and mood. Discuss your concerns about these medications and your desire to improve your well-being with your doctor. They may be able to adjust your medication or recommend additional support. My mom took it for a year. Nofap can be a helpful tool, but it's not a magic bullet. Focus on building a healthy relationship with your sexuality, masturbation included. There are plenty of resources online and in libraries about healthy sexual practices. Maybe have a sex journal or something to keep a track of your habits. Maybe video editing is what excites you! Don't be afraid to start small. Watch tutorials, edit short clips for fun, or offer to help friends with their projects. The important thing is to take that first step. Just baby steps you know. Nihilistic thoughts can hold you back. When you start thinking "I'll never be successful," counter it with evidence of your past achievements. You've overcome challenges before, you can do it in a support group, either online or in person, for people struggling with similar issues. Talking to others who understand can be incredibly helpful.Setbacks are inevitable. The key is not to let them define you. If you have a bad day, pick yourself up and recommit to your goals.Remember, change takes time and effort. Be patient with yourself, celebrate your victories (big and small), and don't be afraid to ask for help. You've got this! I always reward myself even for little things even though my life is not perfect by any means.

How will you exactly do this in a police brutality situation? That seems tough.

I want an AI system that gives accurate news. Checkmate.

Women are generally more restricted by society to act a certain way or they are considered not so lady like, maybe because of that. A man being rowdy is often seen as a sign of his charisma.

I think at that point you just begin to emit light.

I am learning more about love and human bonding. And I have understood that humans operate in very dysfunctional ways. These are not pure by any means. It's the same reason why we're attracted to junk food, wine and sex. These are our vices,our guilty pleasures but without indulging them we cannot really experience the fullness of the human experience. In one way we can choose to transcend it but it leaves us with a different kind of guilt - the guilt of missing out. Whereas overindulgence can obviously be trouble. There's a fine line in being a human, a thin balance that must be maintained. It's like walking a tightrope. Some of these things can be considered taboo. For example, alcohol can be taboo in certain societies. We need these vices. They make our lives fuller. We understand our biological instincts better. There's nothing evil about it as long as nobody is harmed or hurt. It's similar to harmless dark humor. It's like a full palate. Everything to suit your taste from sweet to salty to spicy to tangy to bitter to mild. When you have all of it, that defines a complete experience.

I believe in transcendence and non judgement.

^yep

Not a scam but slavery.

Who is the killer?

You shouldn't have to do it unless it's your mother. You're kind and kindness is often taken advantage of. Can someone else take care of this person.

They will say Jesus saved him.

Drink lots of water. Sometimes it could be dehydration.

Love this.

Yea this. Everyone has their own way so there's really no one size fits all at the end of the day, it's really down to matching preferences. Plus pride and ego are not the same as being hurt by lack of commitment.

There's nothing wrong as long as you do it consciously without hurting feelings. A relationship is always mutual.

Not Trumpsters.
