My advice is go into situations assuming you know nothing about them. If you want to get coffee with a friend, you'll likely make a B-line for the friend, the car, and the shop. Now say a beautiful woman was just feet away from your friend, there was a rainbow in the sky, and come to find out...

Yes. And to contribute, too often people define their "values", commit to a field of study, pick certain preferences, without being fully aware of what is socially constructed, and what isn't. I'm looking at the NFL in a new light this year, since I am no longer engaging in sports betting -...

Great topic @Hp. Zevios Metathronos . I too have thought about this a lot. As you say, take it with a grain of salt. We are not the ones creating AI, so we have, in reality, no idea what the general mission of the programs are. I ask CHATGPT questions that Google would have subjectivity on...

I used meth and smoked crack for the better of 5 years, powder for 10, heroin for several months, smoked weed for almost 20 years, and drinking 20 as well. I have been sober from hard drugs for two years now, and only drink once or twice a week. I have also quit nicotine and weed. Let me just...

I'm also curious if 333 has any significance, if anybody knows.

No, psychopaths have literally different brain structures. Good and bad aren't so black and white. Any born mind can chose to be either. It's just with a psychopathic brain structure, your "default" mode is not automatically feeling what other people feel. Therefore ones own needs are put...

The ideologies in this website are great. They are not haughty or nonsensical; they make sense to people with sense. The moderators know that not everyone will agree 100% with some things.. and guess what.. they're still holding down this site and even addressing threads such as this.

correction - rhymes with "Oh" , if that matters. Very curious if there are implications or it merely an overactive mind acting out what was thought about during the day.

Interesting about reading books. I too find them helpful, for the following reasons: - when not meditating, we are largely in our head with ideas from our external world. When reading, if you really emerse yourself, you can go into someone else's world. And as a person with not vivid...

Okay, I emailed you this morning. I am impatient (need to work on this), so I'd like to ask it here: Does anyone know the implications of acting out a long, thirty or so seconds, low toned "OO" as in, rhymes with "You", while in their sleep?

Thank you @Alpha Tenebras Is there a way to private message someone reputable? I have a personal question.

Thanks for the edit mods. Good call.

Thank you. Yes I will not lie about my ignorance. I have always walked to the beat of my own drum, and am looking to shed even more layers of social construction. I am interested in the 666 energies, and the killing final Ritual is interesting to me, as well. It seems more complex than I had...

Friends and family, A rough one-third through this life by modern day standards. Born as a gentle, albeit remorseless, soul. Intellectualization allows for the understanding of the word around me, and the empathy to navigate society. Although, it is a draining task, especially when tensions...
