I rarely share videos just to share it, but here it is:

You just gotta get to know the right teachers. 5:14

Framing "world history" as lines on a map, only zooming out to the Americas at 1450 AD.

@Sandroew When I watch the videos above, I quite specifically register it as "young perspective". Young as in partial, limited, inexperienced.

When I see these videos, of these young people and their limited understanding, I know that I'm getting old:

When I started doing substances, I compulsively and obsessively researched how they work (the pharmacology, potency, chemistry, etc.). Then one time one of my friends who also did these substances asked me "can I mix this drug with this drug?". And I was like (internally) "what?? Do you not already know this? Is this not a crucial thing to know? Is it also not merely interesting?" That is when I truly learned there are different personality types/traits. Some people just have no care or curiosity or risk aversion to learn virtually anything about anything. They will go by either what merely works or by what others are doing as long as it works (or they just have completely different interests). Your date sounds like she's a sensor type, less concerned about intellectual understanding, less concerned about creativity, about personal values, more about what is going on around them, socially, sense-ly.

The first guy wants to teach you how to increase your IQ, showing how he increased his through an unofficial online test, and he sells an e-book with the methods he used which supposedly contains information from 50 studies (which he definitely found on ChatGPT). The second guy tries to paint a picture of a 20-year-old online celebrity through a lens of a famous philosopher. It's educational.

What you do once will be likely done twice, and the more you do a thing, the more likely it is you will see consequences of that thing. And consequences are overall proportional and just. Do bad, create bad, do bad to others, surround yourself with bad, bad comes back to you.

Yes. Attachment means you don't accept were you to be without something, or are not ok, complete, without something, such that you torture yourself mentally with feelings and thoughts. To release an attachment, simply imagine being without something or something happening and then telling yourself "I'm ok with this". I have had a sort of automatic habit that before a test or exam, I tell myself "I don't care about what happens". And it removes all anxiety, and it makes me able to perform only the way that is needed, and it makes you more objective, less needy, less desperate, less biased, clearer in your perception. The same thing happens with any attachment you have. You become less partial, less corrupted, less emotionally unstable. You can still have preferences without attachments. If you get a cake, you will prefer that over a piece of camel dung. But if you don't get a cake, you'll be just as fine as if you did get it. You are essentially independent from your preferences, you only take them as they are, and you accept reality as it is. Attachment means not accepting reality as it is. Now, can you accept literally everything as it is? That is what it means to be without attachment.

I was called an angel exactly 15 days and 19 hours ago. I saw something like that in a YouTube post. I knew the mushrooms would do some work on Bryan's brain nodules.

Rrrrrr no spoilers

They seem like they do some pharmacology let's put it that way. I like their music. Sounds like 2000/2001 Porcupine Tree with a more indie edge 🤓

@Natasha Tori Maru I'm psychic, ya know. The not betting on the Bryan-Kate relationship was just denial :,)

Wuh- why are they confused about evil not existing? Moral anti-realism is such a basic concept, even if you don't agree with it. Maybe I'm too indoctrinated by the political YouTuber sphere, maybe millennial PhDs have lives.

Bruh who are these people?

Why are you asking wrong questions?

Did you not see that was an analogy illucidating a larger point?

@hoodrow trillson So you're saying women are bugs? Jking.

@Ramasta9 I'm interested in going full raw, all natty, nutty, creamy avocado, no artifical, no modern, no nothing. I think it's a good general rule that the longer you go back in time, the less fucked up your food is. I'm surrounded by psychos that believe the pursuit of knowledge is not worthwhile except for a few very select goals (like earning money), that cooking your food in PFOAs, charring it, cooking it with plastic utensils, using fluoride, "it's ok, I'm still alive", that listening to how you feel inside your body is an impossible exercise, that sitting still is a cardinal sin, that going too deep into interpreting your own symptoms and creating a causal understanding of your life is just "ok, you don't have to think so much, thinking causes the symptoms, placebo". I want out of the collectively enforced psychosis. Might as well start protesting by not consuming a gram of what they eat.

The only time I broke up with a woman, I said "I want to be single", and that was it. I was also 12. Maybe you can take some inspiration from that.

Mineral water, brought to you by slightly overweight shaktipat teacher (RIP):

I think I'm the opposite of metrosexual. Momosexual.

I've seen my conceptual mind completely stripped naked, poking it, morphing it, manipulating it, making it dance, while being held in a bottomless, wall-less chamber of terror. My grasp on it has been entirely intentional.

Bruuuuuuuaaaaaaah.
