179 cm. I remember looking at a graph of my weight and height development when I was little and I had always been just a teeny-tiny tad shorter than national average (it's now 180.9 cm for adult males) but dead-on average weight. So I've always been slightly more beefy than what my height would indicate 😆

"Smart" is usually associated with being unhappy when it's defined as a psychic imbalance of high IQ (working memory, pattern recognition) and low psychological depth, complexity, introspective ability, refinement, values, awareness, meaning, being, and simply happenstance, precarious situations.

I think it's hilarious how strongly Leo disagreed on you categorizing it as a cult throughout the thread, despite you feeling strongly compelled to call it a cult. Almost makes you think 🤫 I wonder what you think about my "cult" experience. Was it a cult? And then, is it categorically distinguishable from this place?

@Inliytened1 plz anser boss 👆👆👆 ty

"Think for yourself about this thing I'm telling you to think about, but not about what I'm saying". "It's not a cult guys, cult means mind contro- funneling money of course".

We're horse-shoeing into the other semen-related thread.

Lmao. Makes a distinction, refuses to elaborate. I want to think for myself but you're making it hard by not answering my question. In fact, I "think for myself" so much that I won't think about what you're telling me to think about (and "contemplate", the most cliché, overused, groupthink concept on the forum) and instead want to think about what you would've answered me if you had answered.

Whatever you currently want to do. That does not mean blindly cater to impulse and discount all future visions. It means cater to what is the best choice in your current situation.

You're setting up for some dirty revenge playing with pale fluids like that.

I should've said "some vegans".

You said there was a contrast. What was the contrast? Or was it just a feeling?

The smoking quitting industry has known this for a long time. https://tryfum.com

This thread is the biggest wanking session the forum has seen in a while.

What's the contrast? "God is nothing, God is not x" vs "God is x, God is this thing"?

What about breast milk and the mother consents? Some vegans proclaim to be against exploitation of animals. But is a consentual transaction or interaction exploitation? Would that vegan be against a worker contract where the worker consents because it's "exploitation" of (human) animals? Or does consent make it ok and it's not the consumption of animal food/labor that is intrinsically not ok, it's the lack of consent (which non-human animals are generally incapable of expressing)?

It is. Stop 😭

Use paid social media ads to advertise your gofundme. There are people out there willing to donate to you (evidenced by the fact that somebody has already donated to you), so all you need is their attention.

Would extracting biological fluids from a baby animal be vegan? I guess if the mother gives consent? 🤔

The concept of a male escort, especially a high-rated one, is really fascinating. Notice the personality type. Notice the social status, the philosophy and values, the type of interactions that women want out of it. They (the good ones) seem like highly caring, sensitive heroes.

So you're dreaming at night. You dream that you're John in Paris. You wake up and you remember you're Sam in London. You can also wake up (again) and realize you're God dreaming everything. Then what are John and Sam? They are dream characters, dreamt up inside the dream, and they seem to experience the world from their own limited perspective (by virtue of the fact that you dreamed as them and they seemed to be in different places with different impressions and feelings). That limited perspective is their mind. The dreamer of all the minds is God. And God is a big Mind. So what is the brain inside the dream? It's a thing that correlates with other things in the dream. When you touch your nose, you can see brain activity light up related to the nose. When you close your eyes, you can see brain activity related to closing your eyes. You can use brain activity to predict many things that happen in the dream. But the brain is still inside the dream. It is not ultimately "creating" the dream. It is part of the consistency of the dream. Just like when the temperature drops, the thermometer shows a drop in temperature, when brain activity drops, you see a drop in certain behaviors of the mind.

Idealism, depending on the type, is capable of distinguishing between personal minds and transpersonal Mind. It would say personal minds are epiphenomenal/products of transpersonal Mind and thus not ultimately "real". The greater Mind is what is the ontological ground. This lies behind the distinction between Maya and Truth. This lies behind the distinction between the limited world of perception (sounds, colors, sensations, thoughts; things you divide and label through concepts) and pure Consciousness (prior to dividing it up into labels, categories, concepts). More naive ideas of non-duality actually make this distinction implicitly when they say "everything is mind and everything else is just a concept". Where do the concepts come from? Can it be described, systematized? A good philosophy systematizes useful notions like that, hence it introduces distinctions like personal minds and transpersonal Mind.

That is such a cringe word.

One evening around midnight, I walked past a bus terminal next to the largest shopping centre in Norway. It had essentially been overtaken by 'russebusser' (for non-Scandis: the buses some of the russ pay millions to have a mobile nightclub for 1-2 months at the end of high school) and there were russ filled to the brim everywhere, piss and puke everywhere. And after passing the terminal, a new bus came from the road and blasted music from the windows from the best speakers I've probably ever heard, sounded like something out of Mad Max. The buses feel like pirate ships on the road.

Why do you think that is? Is it the oil? What about Sweden? 🤔
