  2. i'm not romantically interested in him, if that is what you are asking. i am tutoring his children and like to think that i am a person they can place trust in. he is like 60 or something and has another daughter my age who already has children. the way i see it, he has more of an administrative role but the main focus of my work are the three girls, and i get along well with them and also feel that they deserve the tutoring i can offer. if things escalate further, i think i'll have to make him aware to keep it together for his children's sake.
  3. @Yimpa Maybe I should be posting all this on a Christian Forum. 😉
  4. I microwaved some microwaveable popcorn in my microwave oven.
  5. Motte and Bailey is pretty much the "style of argumentation" you're engaging in. Which specific Muslim countries? In what way are "the majority of muslims" dangerous?
  6. Haha, this is so hilarious. Dry british comedy would have a field day with this. Zorrrrg!
  7. If everyone was enlightened, society made for 8 billion people would fall apart in 2 days. The least enlightened would come out as the new kings / dictators
  8. Why didn’t he just ask his mom or sister? Surely he has at least one of them. Bro is losing aura points for absolutely no reason by posting this.
  9. If you want something super simple though that you could apply immediately, I would go one step further and differentiate creative modelling of relationships from creative relationships themselves, the former of which my previous comment mainly focused on. So concerning the latter, creative relationships, look no further than analogical training. in the context of increasingly deeper levels of creativity in the abstract, inclusive of all forms of innovation, you'll never make seeking analogies between phenomena redundant as its own training laboratory for, as you put it, "jail breaking your mind", at the very least, out of auto-pilot, and or, establishing new neural terrain. Examples of analogical thinking, finding the relationship between Trumps meme posting, a K-Pop song and roadkill that's been sprayed with perfume. Haha, I am sure you get the idea now!
  10. This forum is like Aristotle when believed women have less teeth but never verified it. It appears @Olafhas more sense than Aristotle. He simply asked some of the women on here to open their mouths to find the truth of how to attract them instead of speculating.
  11. Desire is a feeling. Its nature is consciousness. You don’t find anything behind the experience of it.
  12. That's the consequences of experiencing a desire, but what is desire
  13. Today
  14. It seems like you're describing higher sociability or a partner. The problem with an accountability partner is that you're now holding someone else accountable for your accountability, which is basically just compounding the problem of personal accountability by two. Maybe try talking to people you already think have accountability. I find absorbing is easier than creating for something like this. Sometimes hanging out with someone and recognizing something they do better than me is a motivating example to do it myself. We have to be acclimated to situations of accountability or create them straight-up.

  16. And the issue is that the Dumbass ones think they are being system thinkers. And also there is overlap. So with one issue they are systems thinking but another they are just being dumb asses.
  17. Once the team is over 100 devs, you're in corporate hell. Indie dev is the solution. Games need to be small and more creative. Huge success corrupts every studio.
  18. Do women actually realize how much female beauty can affect men? From my experience, men seem to react much more intensely to a woman’s appearance than women realize. When a man sees a truly beautiful woman, it can feel like gold to him. When a woman sees a truly handsome man, it can feel more like silver. Maybe I’m completely wrong, but I wonder if women realize just how differently men can experience female beauty. Do women experience the same thing with men, or is it actually different?
  19. Share any little victories you’ve accomplished recently that meant the world to you. I will start. I went on a short jog. I haven’t done this in a long time. It was fun and inspiring!
  20. @stephenkettley howdy, so I'd say relational dimensional flexibility is what I would define as deep creativity; let me go into what I mean there but. Just hang in there with me some and you'll surmise it well by the end along with any other reader. "Deep" is the point of focus, differentiated from say, a beautiful peace of art and instead more along the lines of abstract thought. Flexibility of thought and traditional divergent measures are what's most closely psychometrically tested. Relational dimensional flexibility however goes to a deeper level. I have constructed a theory recently actually that's going to teach people how to mind map at increasingly higher levels of dimensions: aka 2D thought upwards to 5D and above; its a logical scale, and original as far as I am aware. One of the biggest limitations I realised that people have is how they represent their own inner worlds in the context of themselves. This led me to the resolve that if people visuo-spatially represented themselves and their existential relationship to reality across 3D, perspective would be far more seamless along with the clarity of realigning any directions. I reached this conclusion based on reflecting on the ease in which people gain clarity on their visual environment. We see an object, we grab it, move it, rotate it, whichever we wish, there's no gap in wondering, there's immediate perspective. One of the patterns observable in many people with anxiety is sometimes the constrictness of thought, exacerbated by talking about a subject within its own bubble, there's no real relationship to the connections that bring it stability. For example, if someone is complaining about a person, it will often loop on what they did, their feelings, etc, and the fact awareness around that person and their relationship to that person in the context of the greater environment of either the other person and or themselves, is often quite devoid of any real signal. Visuo-spatial imagination alone on the physical environment, say the larger city, country and planet, provides perspective. However, this later translated to thinking about dimensional reasoning in the abstract sense, this is where it translated into mapping the dimensions of deep thought from 1D to 5D and above, where deeper dimensions and the flexibility of that mapping, reflects increasingly deeper creativity relative to the flexibility in which that is done. The difference between say, raw processing power along with capacity for abstraction and say, creativity, is the originality of connections at increasingly higher dimensions. That said, a simpler way of organising the definition of "deep creativity" is originality of relationships across increasingly higher levels of dimensions. Generally speaking, outside of endeavours that involve pure abstraction from inventions to mathematics, there are generally other patterns this kind of deep creativity overlaps with, like existential and emotional depth that maps simultaneously especially in the arts. One of the vectors of deeper creativity in the way I have expressed it is cross-domain reasoning, at increasingly higher levels of dimensions we see deeper levels of nested reasoning. Here's a closer look at what I mean. Take Trump’s 2026 fight with Canada. At 2D, US tariffs trigger Canadian retaliation right. At 3D, we have their car manufacturing relationship, dairy, jobs, Quebec identity, sovereignty, Carney’s domestic politics and say, Trump posting “Lake America” memes ha! At 4D, each retaliation hardens the other side’s story that respect requires escalation between the sides. At 5D, we could map futures where humiliation or say saving-face between the two nations change the relationship, and the meme posting. At 6D, we start generating at a deeper level, so its less on the immediate dynamics and more on the overture, so the social status, identity matrixes between the two and manageing cultural perception through the interactoin. Let's just say that in this example geopolitics can quickly become a family group chat where Uncle Donald tariffs the potatoes while seeking martial law endorsement of his next presidential run by leveraging the fight with Iran, Greenland and hey, who knows, perhaps he'll throw Canada, UK and Australia as well ha! Geopolitics is actually a great example to apply across the dimensions because it really gives you an insight into just the levels of abstraction involved in geopolitics and how out of touch the average person is from how the political game works and subsequently, how the average person is easily influenced accordingly. The digital scape though is much more savvy these days on geopolitics, even though people have been so easily manipulated on all the Epstein and UFO stuff, many people see through say JD Vance's political manipulations with a simple example being say going on a Joe Rogan podcast to appeal to the fan base of those issues while creating plausible deniability on those subjects for whatever opinion he wanted to inject. So yeah, I don't know why this hasn't been created before, but hey, I've created it and I'll be teaching peeps how ot do it from one dimension to the next using mind mapping. Mind mapping was identified as the best learning tool for this context because it touches on overlapping with the perspectivism that comes from dimensional representation not just abstractly but through some kind of sense, in this case visual, even though yeah, I realise that some people are more auditory, perhaps a strategy should be recruited there too and isn't so far away from what I'm doing here even though mind mapping is a visual process, because its relational before its sensory.
  21. The reason why I decided to put this video on vMEME Yellow is because, even though the music industry has a lot of vMEME Orange values, this particular video talks about the process of releasing an Album, and the Ecosystem and Infrastructure necessary in order to make that happen.
  22. What is the real world? You mean compared to other countries? I'm a DSA supporter but on their website they explicitly say they want to get rid of capitalism completely. Wouldn't you say that is a pretty radical far left stance? https://program.dsausa.org/
  23. What if the checklist is made of the most frivolous goals, lol, what then? Like, make my bed, brush my teeth, etc.?
  24. Afghanistan is pretty much the point I’m making. I don’t like Muslim countries because I find many of the values and beliefs there dangerous. I never said every Muslim is dangerous, but I do believe the majority are. You can disagree, obviously. Just don’t expect me to suddenly change my mind because you found a few Muslims who are nice and harmless.
  25. One of the very first things that Leo first blew my mind with was the relativity of sense making systems. See: The Ultimate Model Of Human Knowledge - All Knowledge Explained One insight I've been really appreciating recently is the features of intelligence from: How Socialization Makes You Stupid - Problems With Conformity & Group-Think 1h 5 minutes timestamp: Features of True Intelligence: Combine that with Holism = wholeness = health = healing = Unity = Oneness = infinite = harmony, balance = Goodness = Love = God = Seflessness = wisdom = Beauty = holy = heaven = bliss Lack of holism = division = fragmentation = partiality = brokenness = lack of harmony, imbalance = limitation = finite = selfishness = ugly = evil = hell = suffering And contemplating how love = intelligence Sensemaking, understanding, intelligence, truth has become some of the best things to contemplate about... One thing I really appreciate from Leo is him strongly underlining the importance of Truth. There is an unbelievable amount of depth, practicality, and power when you orient towards recognizing more and more truth. It took me years to chew on Leo's lecture: what is perception. I remember walking and listening to "Reality is appearances happening to no one" and my state of consciousness shifted right there, almost psychedelic like.
