  1. Past hour
  2. Preface: Thank you in advance for not commenting on my journal. I’ll drop something July 1st thereabouts. If anything I create thats more than a paragraph is going to be called AI, or scrutinised as such, worse if it’s reflective of the bottom of the barrel concerning my cognitive effort… and while jet lagged, under-slept, it’s better to just post publicly when I feel much less emotional investment in the sharing itself. Initially a branch-off from my two (one is quoted) comments here: Ha! No hard feelings on my end, it’s economics. Welcome the dystopia with open arms otherwise you’ll become too frustrated and become its own example. Simply continue to make calculated moves to your next strategic intersection. I hope I haven’t disappointed anyone with the lack of April 1st release, you just gotta see it from my perspective. It’s simply not smart anymore to invest effort when the environment is going down this kind of momentum. When I share, people can just call it AI, and I won’t care. This is the end of my journaling I guess, ha. I promise to share July, but the series likely stops there onto something else related to helping me in my studies (as that’s what this series on the mappings of consciousness was mostly going to be about), so I no longer have the emotional investment into the sharing itself given the trajectory of where things are likely heading now. To ensure after my break this doesn’t happen again, I’ll avoid the rest of the forum as intended so I don’t get hung up on anything external to my own personal activity. Heck, if I only stick to the journal section for my entire reading I’ll have a positively distorted perception on the progress of the site and maybe thats a good thing heh! Heh, you kiddos will be fine. I’ll clean up my journal anyway and go back to a purely detached posting here once I return then. Best wishes, good luck. Prologue: Thank you for not commenting on my journal.
  3. Apparently they have banned, FB, Instagram, Whatsapp, Twitter and others. Do you feel its a good thing? 70% of social media today seems garbage for the mind.
  4. This is a really undervalued practice. I've done this a few times. Getting away from spirituality for like 30 days or more is profound like a psychedelic. And then re-engaging after that.
  5. @UnbornTao No. I feel like if we have reached such a dystopian period that something I wrote on the fly without effort is questioned as AI, I should have paid more attention to the patterns before I chose to write it. I will have more restraint in future. Please direct any further correspondence elsewhere, thank you.
  6. Green or Yellowish. Perhaps Orange. I don't know them well enough to be more precise.
  7. @LastThursday That's exactly what I meant. Before meditation I neurotically tried to "fix" my own behavior by setting rigorous schedules to fit my extremely high standards of myself. When I wasn't perfect, I gave up completely and slid back into my old patterns. That cycle continued until I started turning inward and looking at things within myself I didn't want to look at. Through this past year I've "loosened up" these patterns and gained perspective on a lot of stuff. Realized my intense anger (which prevented me from functioning well in relationships) was just a cover for a lot of grief and vulnerability, all of which I've had the privilege of coming face to face with on the mat. Extremely difficult and turbulent process. But now I'm feeling more and more aligned with positive motivation, genuine creativity, rather than a desperate need to get away from pain. My relationships are healthier. I was able to drop a lot of negative habits with less shame when I fall off track. Accepted parts of myself I disowned. All that good stuff. Growth is a lot slower than I would like. But who am I to tell the process what it should and shouldn't be! If I'm able to loosen the patterns of shame and judgement on myself and others through this long term process, I'll go through 1000 ego backlashes and difficult days when I have to work through a lot of stuff. I don't care.
  8. Today
  9. I'm re-watching the second video (Part 2) and curious about elaboration on these statements: "no beliefs", "you have to stop believing stuff", "eliminate belief".
  10. I saw the entire 2 part of The DemystifySci Podcast. What stage in spiral dynamics would those two people be?
  11. @Natasha Tori Maru oh my bad, i thought u were talking about sommeone else
  12. Seems like this guy had a theory a century ago https://www.instagram.com/p/DUl7BKZDG-M/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==
  13. Ralston's apprentice? He's a good lad 🙂
  14. r u talking about brandon rohe? if so what did he do
  15. OCD

    @theleelajoker I was just thinking about how actually Daniel Ingram's stages of insight actually makes sense of my current situation better than OCD. Called out. Lol.
  16. I see a lot of Ralston influence on here. I watched @BlessedLion's interview. If you don't even listen to the meaning of what he says -- but just focus on his vibe, he's very entertaining and captivating. The first time I watched it I focused on the meaning. Now I'm just listening for feel. He's very charismatic as a speaker. His pacing, cadence, and humor is excellent. Just going from the audio alone.
  17. Hmmm yeah I see. But it's different if I do that at a festival, in Nature or in a big city with traffic etc.
  18. Brendon has even taken on Ralston's accent and intonation. Ah-while. EXXXXspirianSEEE. AHe-where.
  19. my god, i miss that song mad world .. I haven't thought about that in so long, that was the first song that made me reflect deeply on life as a teen
  20. would be funny if it actually is slop talking about the destruction that slop is doing to our society
  21. @bazera That's a decent start, but needs fleshing out and more pathos. Thanks for sharing.
  22. @UnbornTao If you are not careful you will turn into Brendon. I'm serious.
  23. The belief that "understanding" ie creating elaborate mental representations of reality is the only right way to value Truth. Failure to recognize the simplicity of Truth. What would happen if you just took a break from philosophy and contemplation for a month?
  24. Yeah, it's nice, and I bake them fresh, It's less hassle that way, but I have noticed it has become heavy on the stomach so you don't want to prepare it too late before hitting the bed. It is good suggestion to maybe take a pause on the potatoes though. I'll probably go with oats for now. Hope you have a good day!
  25. I mean they kinda of aren’t exactly against this …. Dems are basically keeping their heads low and letting trump do the dirty work but most of them are Zionist funded and support Israel. Only the progressive lot like Bernie have spoken out against bombing Iran. Really the Bernie camp are just too developed for the rest of the country.
  26. Stop posting schizophrenic Instagram reels omg 😂 The video seems to me like 100% acting. You don't just pull out exact four-five digit numbers on the top of your head while performatively looking into your skull like that. Exact manic energy and oversharing of unsolicited information you would expect from a pathological liar who does it for kicks.
