  1. Was she gunna throw hot steaming water on them? It looks like she wasn't, kneeled down afraid of the gun, but didn't have anywhere to put the pot down, and because she didn't drop it the cop shot her. When cops are around, don't make any sudden movements, do exactly what they say and just follow directions. I guess she was schizophrenic or something. She said something before the cop says "You better not, I'll shoot you in the fucking face." Can you tell what she said? It seems threatening. EDIT: Apparently she said "I rebuke you in the name of Jesus" like she was about to throw the water on them. The cop pointed out the boiling water in advance, and let her walk over to it, which is confusing. He probably just thought she was cooking something, and maybe you shouldn't leave something cooking on the stove. He maybe thought she was going over to take it off the stove, and would've let her do that. Then she the "I rebuke you in the name of jesus" as if he was some demon that she needed to expel from her home with the water, and seemed like she was going to throw it on them. The cop probably didn't know she was schizophrenic. It doesn't feel exactly like George Floyd, that man wasn't armed with anything. The cop should've put distance between himself and the woman and backed up. I don't know why he was moving forward ready to engage. He also let her walk right over to the water and allowed for the situation to happen, and didn't have his body cam on, so we can't see from his perspective. EDIT: I was wrong, there is body cam footage from both cops.. Also, this turn of phrase isn't what I originally thought it meant, apparently its a very common turn of phrase. This cop murdered this woman and handled the situation horribly, whether she was trying to attack him with the hot water or not. This man should not be a cop.
  2. Okay, whatever works for you. It doesn't really matter what you say if you are confident. It's happened to me before. I was surprised. It's only rare because most women won't make the first move.
  3. No, thank you for your comment. The benefits probably outweigh the risks for most people here doing consciousness work, so many will not engage.
  4. There is no best. What is best for me may not be best for you. Adyashanti really helped me.
  5. I do think this is an important point. I didn't actually know that it was years later. If he saw that it affected his kid negatively health wise or mental health wise, I think it's fair to publicly say he regrets agreeing so young. When he explains it away as a "woke mind virus", that's really where it feels more like the problem lies.
  6. I don't even listen to Leo, I just stare at his bald head.
  7. I don't think that at all so don't assume. I can acknowledge all that good stuff while disagreeing with him politically. I am not some leftist who hates rich people I think Elon gets a lot of unnecessary hate, but his support of the MAGA movement is just sad. He seems to be going further down the rabbit hole.
  8. It's not wrong or right. We can't tell from the outside whether this person is going through a phase or has really thought about living the rest of their life as a trans person. You said it yourself, we don't really know. So a more conscious love from Elon for his child would bring awareness to the fact that isn't trans himself and doesn't know what his kid is feeling, and to not dismiss it. That doesn't mean he had to sign the papers. Honestly, I might make my child wait until they were 18 and were sure about whether they wanted to go through with it. He didn't have to sign the agreement. In the same way we can't tell if the kid is going through a phase or not, we also can't tell the way in which Elon loves and parents his child. I'm not denying that kids get radicalized at all. People transition too young and regret it. But a more conscious love makes space for someone to understand themselves and explore their identity, without dismissing it away as a "woke mind virus". The thought of transitioning and regretting it years down the line does seems scary to any degree. If he was more conscious he'd also realize that he is probably alienating himself from this child by taking a personal life choice the kid is making and publicizing it, turning it into a political thing. Everyone is seeing through their paradigm, so I see what you are saying.
  9. @NoSelfSelf You gotta figure out what works for you. For me personally, I don't even try, I just exist in a space, and see where things go. I am not invested in getting girls. I am out experiencing life, enjoying myself, and am open to new conversations with both men and women. If I am in a club and am dancing, I can interact and attract women without even talking, just from body language. But only if I am high energy and having a good time. No fear of rejection. Just walk up to a woman and say "damn you are beautiful." It's just honesty. No pick up line. If she isn't interested, just forget it and move on. Basically, be like this guy in the video. He is just minding his own business, existing confidently, doing his thing.
  10. I don't doubt Elon loves this kid but t's a very low consciousness form of love.
  11. OP cheated and then wants to throw himself a pity party. It's pretty difficult to have sympathy. She only did exactly what he did first. All could be forgiven if it was a conscious relationship, but OP doesn't seem very mature. Your opinion is worth everything. It's funny, OP doesn't really try to even see the perspective of the girl he "loves". This a sort of false low consciousness surface level "love". If he really loved her, would he have cheated with some random girl? And even if he did that, then realized he made a mistake, true love would be realizing that him and his actions may not be best for her, and trying to understand her reaction. Even to the point of understanding and accepting her going out and "cheating" on him. Instead, he runs to his Mom to besmirch her reputation and wallows in self pity.
  12. There is biology at play, it's automatic, people want to reproduce. It's baked into the design. It's not always an unconscious primal thing, you can have children and raise them very consciously. The NPC reaction is always funny, like they have never considered not pooping out multiple children.
  13. What did you say? I can't hear you...
  14. Love to see women with confidence.
  15. Why do you need to resolve paradox?
  16. Most doctors are very careful about doing procedures to those transitioning. It's really not that big of an issue, just typical conservative fear
  17. The biggest life trap could be listening to others, or defiantly not listening to others.
  18. I don't understand why you'd want to do Ayahuasca, 5meo, and San Pedro back to back like that in the first place. Even if it was safe, it feels like too much, trying to jam pack 3 massive experiences in one weekend. And this is the number one way people die from 5meo.
  19. I will admit to forgetting who and what I am quite often.
  20. That's so cool dude. I really want to go to one. Stop pretending you are not selfish. You are trying to better yourself with these experiences and come to deeper understandings of life. Sure it's selfish, but you are always selfish- why would you act against your own best interest? A conscious facilitator would be careful with dose adjusting based on the individual. They need to have held a space for others many times before. It's probably best if they are large enough of a human to control you, so you don't stand up and fall and hurt yourself, or they need to have backup staff who know what they are doing ready to help. They should know CPR and have medical professionals on-site. The ceremony would be done in a way that doesn't induce panic, like very small groups. Maybe you can get an idea for the ceremony doing research online, because each facilitator has their own approach. There is no rules or oversight in this domain really, and you need to ensure they are going to keep you safe. I would make sure you have a facilitator with not too much style. Think the complete opposite of the Octavio Rettig guy. If you can get a sense of their practice/ceremony beforehand that's what I'd suggest. You have to trust them enough to be able to give into the experience and let go. After the experience, they should be able to help you contextualize things if you need it, but also know when to not contextualize anything, and shouldn't impose ideas on you. They would be careful about coloring the experience for you. Providing people with psychedelics is not a good or bad thing. it could be good or bad. Your history with substances and your mental health are a factor. These experiences are not guaranteed to give you human connection or loving experience. Could leave you feeling scared and alone. Where are you located? You can source synthetic mescaline online, the active ingredient in San pedro. It's legal in most states and is called methallylescaline. You can also make pharmahuasca with regular DMT + MAO inhibitor. Its not exactly the same experience as ayahuasca though.
  21. Leo was very vulnerable in his last video and admitted he was wrong on many personal fronts. He cried thinking about the love he gets from his supporters, and how he has not been appreciative of that in the past.
