Pretty cat. Sorry for your loss. 14 years is a good full life for a cat.

We have known that for 10 years now.

Nothing. Human words mean nothing. Ask yourself why Reality would care about anything human say. It doesn't care. Do ants care what humans say? Human words are just dust in the wind. Notice that the only ones who think human words have any meaning are humans. This is the narcissism of humanity.

@Santiago Ram Seems like your issue is not really blasphemy but mental health issues, which require either medication or serious psychotherapy work. So I recommend working with a high-quality psychotherapist. It also seems like you have religious programming and beliefs from your upbringing. All of that needs to be deconstructed and thrown away. God will not be found in any religious dogmas or beliefs. Those are obstacles to pure unfettered Consciousness. God does not care what you say or think about God. God does not even care what "evil" you do in the world. These are all egoic matters which God does not concern itself with. Do not confuse God with any human ideas, beliefs, or doctrines about God. You simply need to stop believing humans and investigate consciousness directly, free of any human ideas. Human ideas are corruptions.

I give Bashar a lot of points just for that fact that he recognizes Trump as the dangerous pervert that he is.

Still no mention of God. And again, you can cherrypick whatever gems from a group of a billion people. That does not stop the self-deception of the tradition as a whole. The entire spiritual domain is based on genetics. So just because you find a few genetic freaks who are super advanced in a tradition is highly misleading to more avarage practioners. That's the game being played here. If you have the perfect genetics you don't even need to practice, you can just sit and know everything.

Be careful with false equivalency and false humility, as that would be self-deception. Maybe Magnus Carlson is no better at chess than your local newb. Or maybe you are kidding yourself.

I do not want to run a dating service and all the drama and bad blood that comes with that. As soon as a small community of people start trying to have sex with each other, things go south real fast. You don't want this forum turned into a vehicle for dating.

Why do you need billions of parallel realities when you could just have this one?

I think some travel would be good for you to flush your system with new experiences. You could use that to make some new friends if you travel to the right places. Investing in some coaching or therapy would be good. Any other activities that feed your soul and your top values. But also, don't feel you have to spend it all. Having a large savings is very good for security. The best investment would be to use that money to transition yourself into a career/biz that could sustain you in the future so you don't have to grind away at a job you dislike.

@Water by the River Buddhist apologetics is like Christian apologetics. Christians think that they can defend their dogma by finding one or two highly conscious Christians. Buddhists do the same. In this way the self-deception is sealed.

You do that by doing philosophy, reaching God/Good/Truth/Love, and using that to clean up your own corruption as best you can. But keep in mind, the small biz you're building is not serious power. If you were after serious power, that would require serious corruption. A small biz can get away with low corruption.

It's not about lying outright, it's about knowing when to keep your mouth shut. What truth? Can't say, since women would get upset. I've already said too much.

Everyone with power is a liar. You are even lying to yourself that you will get and hold power without lying. Even your desire for power is based on lies you tell yourself. If there's one thing you can be certain of, it's that Tate is a massive liar.

Dealing with human egos is a kind of game. Handling women is a kind of game.

Don't forget that besides incels there also volcels: voluntary celibates.

BlueSky is in no way replacing Facebook.

This is nonsense. Of course men love power and status for its own sake. That's what all these Tech Bro oligarchs and politicians are addicted to.

Don't even start with your Tate BS here.

If he didn't abuse and pimp women, no one would be busting his balls. Saying that women care about survival is nothing controversial or shocking. This is like saying that squirrels care about nuts. The problem is Tate uses this basic fact to spread misogyny and abuse.

I know what you meant. I'm just holding it back.

Women are fooling themselves a lot too. Since women date and mate unconsciously, they suffer plenty for it. What you're describing here is basically Red Pill, not blackpill. When you enter pickup you go through a phase where you realize how brutal and ruthless mating is. You go through a feeling sorry phase, then you get over it.

Of course. It's all survival. Man. Woman. Crocodile. Same force. You learn this when you do a lot of pickup. The fantasy is stripped bare. Human love, like all human activity, is corrupt. Nothing humans do is ever about truth. If you dare to tell women the truth, kiss your relationship goodbye. Only a fool or a madman would tell a woman the truth. Note: This is not a license to lie to women. There is a difference between outright lying and just not verbalizing hard truths.
