Do you think this applies to the Ram Das ashram as well? You need to pay to do the Seva program, which is like volunteering at the ashram.

If you are a pigeon, you might find this list helpful. 1. Mumbai, India Status: Extremely high population due to cultural and religious feeding practices (Kabutarkhanas). Key Location: The Gateway of India and dedicated pigeon feeding towers. Population Trend: Continuing to rise due to urbanization and sustained feeding. 2. New York City, USA Estimated Population: 1 to 4 million feral pigeons. Status: Iconic urban wildlife; often cited as having a ratio of one pigeon for every human resident. Key Locations: Times Square, Washington Square Park, Central Park. 3. Venice, Italy Density: Highest per-capita density in Europe, historically estimated at up to 3 pigeons per human resident. Status: While feeding bans have reduced numbers from their peak, Piazza San Marco remains a global hub for pigeon interactions. 4. Cairo, Egypt Status: Distinct from other cities due to massive rooftop domestic pigeon farming (flying flocks) mixed with feral populations. Culture: Pigeon keeping is a major sport and food source, creating a unique skyline density. 5. London, United Kingdom Status: Historically famous feral population. Despite the feeding ban at Trafalgar Square reducing local density, the citywide population remains in the hundreds of thousands. Key Locations: Trafalgar Square (historical), various railway stations, and parks. 6. Istanbul, Turkey Status: High density centered around mosques where feeding birds is culturally encouraged as an act of charity. Key Locations: The New Mosque (Yeni Cami) and Taksim Square. 7. Milan, Italy Density: Scientific surveys have recorded densities exceeding 570 pigeons per square kilometer in central districts. Key Location: Piazza del Duomo. 8. Paris, France Status: Ubiquitous presence in all arrondissements; often referred to locally as "rats with wings," receiving significant municipal control efforts due to their sheer numbers. Key Locations: Notre Dame area and Centre Pompidou. 9. Mexico City, Mexico Status: Supports a massive feral population due to the city's size (20+ million people) and open plazas. Key Locations: Zócalo and Coyoacán. 10. San Francisco, USA Status: Noted for high concentrations in tourist-heavy districts despite active control measures. Key Locations: Union Square and the Ferry Building. Pigeons are literally everywhere!

Commenting because I also really wanna visit Australia some day 🇦🇺 Perhaps also New Zealand, I've already seen old Zeeland.

Yeah exactly, but it seems to be common practice with resorts. I think there's even an entire volunteering industry where you pay like €1k to help build a school in Africa that they break down again afterwards so the next 'volunteers' can build it again. That's this video: But that's not what I mean lol.

Theft episode would be cool. Let me guess: advertisement and algorithms are stealing your attention 👀

It's just this one though. Like the epstein stuff is the only thing that Alex Jones actually got right, no?

I really want to do my kundalini yoga but I can't right now because I'm staying at this hostel that doesn't have a yoga mat. So I need silent methods to raise my consciousness while in a hostel bed or common area. I really need this. Thanks a lot.

You didn't read properly.

Did it thanks. Why does he at some point start listing every disease? I've never even thought about it. Yes sorry for the confusion. I meant to raise the energy up the spine, same way as you do with kundalini yoga. It really forces it. I've found this video somewhat helpful

How does that move the energy upwards?

Yes but Leo called men who are attracted to Trans women gay, so the discussion became about gender. I just don't see the lines being that clear.

Yes I will when I have the time.

This thread made Leo a big got 😂 But seriously, isn't the distinction between gay and straight historically tied to homophobia? So why use it so fanatically?

@Jowblob let me see if I can be honest here. If I had good income and the clients that I want, where would I live? Would I live at these retreats volunteering or would I stay at a nice apartment and build a social circle? I'd do the latter! So maybe you are right and I came up with the volunteering out of a reaction to not having money staying at hostels. So now what do I do? I don't think it's a bad idea though, as they offer a place to stay, an apprenticeship learning about their operations, and a sense of purpose and community. It motivates me more to apply for those positions than it does finding remote clients.

No. I am currently living as a digital nomad, so I have to pay for my stay. If I can live at a retreat, who is already my audience and the niche I wanna grow into, then that's great. Especially if there's extra time to work on other clients. So helping them with their tech is like an apprenticeship, while also saving on living cost. Yet still maybe you're right. How can I test if you're right?

Idk, maybe Butters is just a pervert 👀 But I'm definitely exploring these things, I have no idea what awaits me.

Yes interesting take, I guess you're right. I usually only listen to coffeezilla about these

From my experience at hostels in Europe, I find Americans to be the most kind and warm people. Much more so than the Europeans I meet. Also I highly doubt there is such a thing as European culture. As a Dutch I feel much more culturally aligned with Americans than with southern Europeans for example.

They look like nice people, don't you think? Like they look so friendly in the pictures.

So if you're a bi guy, you're straight? And if you're an impotent old man, you're gay?

Unserious Commitment: I am starting to realize that this negative thinking stuff is an endless game. From now on I will do my best to not identify with negative self-image thoughts. Instead I will go to neutral thoughts and unserious thoughts. Also started doing this visualization exercise where I'm in Bali living my dream life. It's simple and it works. But when I fall back into negative thinking, I will apply the above mentioned strategy.

I've been seeing a few of these videos, it's just sad. I don't understand how you could even do this. 3 hours of sleep every night, no off time, nothing!?

Lol

Manifesting: It's so fucking easy. Just get into a sleepy state, then imagine the end result. Then either nap or just get back up. You wake up in the desired state. Do this every night and morning. It's the basic Neville Goddard shit and it works. Gold just dropped 🪙 Nero = goat

Had a dream about a ladyboy last night, I won't go into detail because this is a family friendly place. I'm not gay. I've probably had some fucked up childhood experiences around sex which might explain the attraction but I'm not sexually attracted to men. I am sexually attracted to girls and women. But ladyboy / trans IF they look extremely feminine, lies into sort of a fetish category for me. For example, I've never watched gay porn. Never. And I've seen way more porn than I would like. So if I was gay wouldn't I watch gay porn? Doesn't make sense.
