Heck ya brother glad you see the value. He has instilled the idea in me that communication is just as important as technical knowledge.

First step is understand the risks. 5 Meo can be the single greatest and most profound 15 minutes you will ever have. BUT it comes with great risks and almost guaranteed costs. Get your material life figured out very well before you do psychedelics as they almost guarantee to reduce your ability to do so after the fact. Leo has said similar. From person experience I do not think it's worth the risk and the costs even though the experience itself was quite profound.

Maybe you are right or maybe this is something an immature fool would say? Who knows! I'm not claiming to be wise or mature. I wonder what your 50 year old self would want to say to your current self.

He's 27 but does it really matter? Some of the founding fathers were in their early 20s and wrote more beautiful and profound things than most people of any age.

Seems like his critique about IFS is that it's an inherently disintegrating and fragmenting theory. Fair enough argument. Perhaps at higher stages integration is more appropriate. Developed people can hold more than one theory in their head at one time. Both IFS and a more integrated theory (like SD) can be true at the same time because some people can benefit from integration while other may benefit from deconstruction.

It an obvious commentary of the delusions of the patriarchy. Here we have two men, completely severed from the organic world. One sycophant worships a fragile, masculine deity that willfully ignores the womb of Mother Nature. The other acts as a literal agent of the state, aggressively disseminating colonial language and violent, written decrees while entirely erasing the intuitive, non-verbal communication of matriarchal ancestral tribes. Their arrogance is so profoundly unchecked that they believe the raw thermodynamics of the universe will bow to their privilege. But the punchline, of course, is the subtextual erasure of their existence by a literal bolt of lightning. Nature, the ultimate matriarch, instantly incinerates them, providing a shocking reminder that the future is female. Seriously though I don't get the quote either.

So true. Alain De Botton recommends we ask ourselves this question: What would our 50 year old selves want to tell us today?

For anyone trying to lose weight (like me) - realize that you are over-eating to make yourself feel better. But only temporarily. It's literally as intelligent as being a drug addict. Excersizing and eating healthy will make you feel SO MUCH BETTER AND FOR LONGER than over eating.

Heck yeah. That is truly something to celebrate -
The multiperspectival life is where it's at

Exactly

Aren't you lonely now? Maturity will help you get less lonely since immature people are bad at relationships and a many other things too. Maturity is never a problem. And due to unprecedented levels of abundance the modern human is arguably very stunted in maturity. In many ways we don't act in age appropriate ways compared to our predecessors.
-
Haha so true. Why is that bad though?
-
Some aren't but let hope your 50 year old self is wiser than your 25 year old self. What would your 50 year old self wish it could tell you today?
-
Yes, this is arguing in good faith right?
-
Yes exactly. I just laugh at the blatant contradictions of both feminists and manospherists: The contradiction of feminism: men rule/built the world because.....they are inferior. The contradiction of the manosphere: weak small women are no match for stronger superior men but........ feminism somehow ruined the world and is something to fear?

Understanding that their understanding is biased is a huge insight and advantage in the world no matter what group we are talking about.

Beautiful and courageous post. Yes we all struggle with the dichotomy of letting go and holding back in public life. We can disappoint ourselves if we go to any of those extremes. Sounds like you have a lot going for you because your mindset is focused on growth. Keep building momentum and remember there are no deadlines to meet and nothing really to get stressed about it the end all achievments amount to nothing. If anything is important its really the journey and the friends we make along the way.

Good job. Yes all prespectives should be considered and understood whether or not we belong to that group or even if we agree with it. Mel Gibson's movie "What women what" shows how understanding anothers' perspective is a literal superpower. This is even good news for self- centered egotistical power hungry people as nothing let's you dominate your enemy more than thoroughly understanding how they see the world. Yet often these people ignore the perspectives of others. However I recommend using this superpower for the common good.

Ya this guy is my new favorite politician. Huge fan of Mumdani too. Finally some truly grass roots politicians that were voted in not because of huge advertising campaigns but because of their policies and working class appeal. The way it should be. -
I got a personal trainer. One of the Best decisions I ever made. It true working out takes some skill and knowledge. If personal training is out of reach for you use AI to make a training plan. Just enter your past injuries, goals, skill level and as much info as you can. AI will make a good plan for you. The only thing it won't help with is real time form monitoring but AI does give you form tips and YouTube Videos also help.
