  1. No posting while high or drunk: https://www.actualized.org/forum/guidelines/
  2. Nahm was first demoted for not caving to Leo's linguistic demands, then after a while, he got banned for recruiting.
  3. I wouldn't use those words. Some of our mods were recruited by Nahm via the PM system, and they accepted the invitation to become a mod over there, which Leo interpreted as a break of trust, so they got banned. However, Leo will ban anyone who makes an account over there.
  4. @SQAAD Many people do psychedelics and very few discover non-duality. This is just the reality.
  5. I don't know. I never really think about stages when I meet people, like "yeahhh this guy is definitely orange." I think most people are cool when you get to know them, unless of course they're like severely emotionally damaged or something.
  6. Bruh he is obviously not joking in those clips. But yeah, he is a comedian.
  7. Standard nutrition profiles don't really give the full picture. Some compounds are specific to that source. You would need to scour Google Scholar for that.
  8. I'm curious if there is any comprehensive data on what kinds of detrimental compounds exist in normal fruits or healthy foods in general. With so called healthy foods, we always look at the positive parameters. Why do we assume that most so-called healthy foods are in the worst case neutral? This might be a mistake, like we've seen with the positive results from people experimenting with elimination diets for autoimmune disorders. Also just in general, the choice of methodology limits the scope of possible conclusions.
  9. @Husseinisdoingfine Mmm oranges
  10. Ok. So there is not much incentive to stop other than removing guilt. I would try to become more aware of how the guilt is affecting your body and mind on the level of feeling. However, in the end, it mainly boils down to how much you value having a clear and peaceful mind.
  11. Do you feel anything in particular (bodily, mentally) when the drink wears off?
  12. This kind of thinking is a slippery slope. If you remove animal slaughter, you will shift your focus to something else, again and again, until there is just pure non-existence. Form is created through opposites. Being embodied in a human body is intrinsically a violation of other life. It's only a question about degrees. It's also a non-starter, because the reality that exists right now is what it is. You can't start removing parts of it without compromising the integrity of the whole. (This is not an anti-vegan argument btw).
  13. Chill. It's not your fault if you don't get non-duality.
  14. Are you living under a rock? ?
  15. It's about the whole vitamin profile, high fiber content and various special compounds.
  16. The lessons from the various measurement-related problems in QM is that our knowledge about the world is determined by the way we interact with it. QM is a framework invented and applied by humans to make sense of measurements invented and applied by humans.
  17. Apparently, being exposed to highly complex music from ages 5 months to 2 years will significantly develop your language ability and memory recall.
  18. 2:40 For some of the greatest fusion guitar playing ever.
  19. I meant it in a more derogatory way, not like he has a childlike energy or aura or anything. Juvenile is a better word. It's his agenda of trying to expose the guest, condescending communication style ("you really believe this and not this, don't you?"), tough guy persona and complete lack of good faith. It felt like I was watching a grade school bully.
  20. That Joe dude is a literal child.
  21. Inspired by Bulgarian folk music.
  22. Yeah you basically said it.
  23. The roommate who gave me it recently got another virus (the common cold), and that is really fucking with me. I can't tell based on my general condition if I'm about to get sick again or if I'm still affected by Covid.
