My dad has bipolar type I and my mom is a hyper-conscientious neurotic. Makes for an interesting mix ?

Consistency.

Man you're so elitist when it comes to art/music ?

It's like the most compulsive and hyper-corrosive type of cynicism. It's like "fuck you, fuck you, and by the way, fuck you too!" They can't control it

The TikTok format is brain-dead. Each clip would only work as an ad. It's too short to have any substance.

My friends have taken more psychedelics than me and they're Stage Orange drones ?

You can see this parallell in their academic backgrounds as well: biology vs. anthropology. One is more essentialist and the other is more relativist. A biologist would be more inclined to want to ground something in an objective substance (analysis) while an anthropologist will be more inclined to compare and contrast different perspectives (synthesis). That said, both show Tier 2 traits (maybe Jamie a bit more than Bret).

You'll have a tiresome trip.

That is kinda a requirement for criticizing something: read what they're saying in their own words.

@TheDao ... yup. A JP fan, like I thought. My advice still stands: lay off the reactionary sources for a while and read about feminism from scratch. Start with earlier feminism (e.g. Simone de Beauvoir) and move yourself upwards and see where they supposedly went wrong.

When have I ever done that?

You see, when a man cries, he has to be Green. That is the rule

I don't think he mentioned anything about Zen

I don't think it's a coincidence that this video was released now after he created a clips channel and started doing interviews. This video serves as a good entry point for outsiders into Actualized.org as it's about a famous self-help-related figure. It also gives a short intro to SD and how to apply it in practice (and you've certainly heard about that before), so I don't see why the God part should be left out (that's after all the highest teaching provided here). If you already get it, good for you.

Rationalwiki is the encyclopedic equivalent of reaction video YouTube.

We don't actually disagree. I might have worded myself a bit inaccurately. Maybe a better word would be "not ideal". At least other types of sleeping medications tend to lose their effect over time (and in that sense, it's not an effective long-term solution). I've also used melatonin before as recommended by a doctor (my mom lol). I should've emphasized that there is a distinction between a diagnosis (for example a sleeping disorder) and the symptoms used to set the diagnosis (diagnostic criteria). While it's true that insomnia can be listed as a symptom in rhythm disorders, these symptoms disappear when the rhythm stabilizes. Only when the symptoms of insomnia are not exclusively linked to rhythm disturbances, then this can start to fit the diagnosis of "insomnia" as a sleeping disorder (if they appear in the right frequency and severity). Insomnia and rhythm disorders are therefore different diagnoses with similar symptoms. It's just a technical detail, but it's a part of the psychology curriculum here

Not everybody can wield the ring of power.

Reminds me of this one

I only have unserious pictures from Snapchat where my hair doesn't look like I got struck by lightning

Women also suffer when their husbands die and war is a part of patriarchy. Who else are sending men to their deaths but other men? ?

And "Deconstructing the myth of science" does not? ?

The irony is that you're now using sociology as an argument Like you said: "its a way too one sided analysis". You can atleast try to not come off as a troll. Until then, see you later ✌

I don't understand that you have to agree with the person to find the video interesting.

Reactionism is a political philosophy that defines itself directly in opposition to some widespread and often progressive idea in order to restore a former status quo. For example anti-SJWs, anti-feminists. You're talking about YouTubers reacting to other videos and pop-culture, which is not the same thing (but many of them are also political reactionaries).

Do you even know what a reactionary is?
