  1. interesting breakdown from the daily evolver, which is a dedicated show on politics for those with a yellow or above understanding
  2. Yes have seen that one this episode is also great, with the Navy Pilot who saw UFOs whilst flying and the footage has been recorded. There’s been nice real explanation for what it could be and apparently the technology for the way it was able to move doesn’t exist yet
  3. @Husseinisdoingfine that’s too simplistic. You’re espousing Marxist Labour Theory of Value here which has been debunked by most economists. You’re missing the wealth generation role that productivity gains and capital play
  4. Fellow Aussie here. That’s interesting, I haven’t been following domestic politics as much as US politics. I used to be really into the Liberal party until I discovered Spiral Dynamics. got any examples of the above?
  5. @Leo Gura that’s optimistically assuming he even gets the nomination. He should get the most votes but I think the super delegates are gonna screw him
  6. It'll happen eventually unless you got some SERIOUS issues. Hard part is actually doing those approaches...
  7. Leo, do you think Yoga is the best way to help transcend the second chakra? I’m fucking obsessed with sex to the point where it just gets annoying. I even have a gf so no problem there but the mind wanders and seeks further stimulation. I hope this is something that can be transcended.
  8. BUT RUSSIAN BOTS!!!!! Trump is gonna have a field day with this, and rightly so.
  9. What is the reason behind the attachment to materialism? I don’t understand why bias in academia is so strong if there’s evidence to the contrary? What’s the psychological mechanism behind this?
  10. Suzanne Segal had a spontaneous awakening. It’s documented in her book Collision with the Infinite
  11. I had a dream last night where I was going to ride in a chopper, but decided not to cause I thought it was dangerous....weird
  12. I feel like trash after porn. Nothing feels worse than the lack of motivation you feel after a 3 hour porn binge...
  13. Is the heavy metal toxicity something that can be easily addressed?
  14. As an Australian there does seem to be quite a sentiment that there isn’t much use in Australia working hard to curb its emissions, because we only contribute about 1% to global emissions Australia alone wouldn’t be able to make any difference. However if every country thought like this we wouldn’t get anywhere. The carbon tax was repealed by the liberal government several years ago. However the problem of climate denialism doesn’t seem anywhere near as bad as in America. Even our centre right liberal party admits it’s an issue. Wheras many Republicans outright deny it
  15. So how would you distinguish say narcissistic personality disorder, psychopathy or somebody at stage red?
  16. I've taken acid/shrooms once in a dream. It was pretty fkn cool
  17. I watched a Beautiful Mind last night, really liked it. Parasite is a classic for 2019
  18. Just watched it all following Leo’s blog post. Very impressed!
  19. Another irony here is he’s actually a conservative Jew. In theory he shouldn’t be even be caring about the Christmas thing, which goes to show it’s more about the paradigm of thinking than the content.
  20. Whilst it may be weak for peak experiences compared to psychedelics, it seems as if meditation is much better for permanent changes to your psyche. Which is really more important than peak experiences
  21. Funnily just yesterday I had a friend who hosts an AirBnB tell me a story about a german guy/girl he hosts. The german guy/girl were at a bus stop and some dude just introduces himself to them. He ends up be-friending them and following them back to my mate's AirBnb house. That very same day the random dude ends up sleeping with the girl with the guy still hanging around (turns out he wasn't a boyfriend). The random dude now has been staying at my friend's AirBnb for a week, hooking up with her. Goes to show anything is possible and even a bus stop approach WITH another guy there can work! Apparently he's a complete natural. Apparently she's fucking stunning too. So yes it can work.
  22. Haha this is such a rare occurance
  23. @Bno lol yeah if Trump is Putin’s puppet he’s doing a pretty bad job at it. We should be encouraging diplomacy with Russia, not escalating tensions. Trump also pulls out of the Iran deal which directly goes against Russian interests.
  24. And see hilarious orange/green reaction to Shapiro
  25. I gotta a mate that's just started up with an MLM called ACN. He's obsessed with it and keeps trying to get me to come to these seminars and become an 'Independent Business Owner'. It's all kind of cult-like an offputting. Not to mention you need to harrass all your friends and family to get anywhere.
