  1. It can be clear without being explicit. Implicit does not mean to act like a selfish ass without taking into account her desire and agenda. It's very clear if a women is interested in having sex with you. It doesn't need to be spelled out. If you want to be a devil, you will always find ways of justifying it to yourself.
  2. Careful when speculating about another's health. Autoimmune disorders are very common these days. I struggle with that myself. Autoimmune disorders can be very complex. There's not one simple cause or solution. His drug addiction was supposedly due to his wife being diagnosed with cancer or something terrible like that. Life can get very challenging sometimes no matter how developed or spiritual you are.
  3. He talks nice but he is the same neo-liberal we tend to always get. He is basically Bill Clinton again. He is not going to fight the corporatists hard like Bernie will. It's easy to talk of inclusion without actually fighting the powers in charge.
  4. @Kaity You are right where you need to be. At 24 I didn't have my LP figured out. So you're ahead of me. Just be patient and don't give up. Move in the general direction that lights up your heart.
  5. Lol What did you expect you'd find? A space kangaroo or something?
  6. You can download videos and sort them into two folders, New and Watched. There are probably also plugins for your web browser that let you add notes to a URL. Or you could even bookmark every watched video into its own Watched folder. You will need to watch my videos many times over to grasp them. If only it was as easy as watching them once.
  7. What's not appreciated is that elections are messy. They never get 100% of the vote accurate. There is always some margin of error. This is compounded in caucauses because they are so messy and people-centered. This is not a computer chip lab. This is ordinary people behaving like herd animals. Yes, stuff will go wrong. Flipping a coin properly is not as easy as it seems if you've never done it before. You can flip a coin, it flys out of your hand, rolls on the floor, gets lodged sideways in a crack, and then what do you do?? That is not rigging. That's just the system we got. Improvements to the system are also not easy to make. People yell about how flipping coins is so old fashioned and outdated, yet when they upgrade the system to be electronic and use apps, even more stuff goes wrong. You can't please someone who sits on a couch and righteously demands perfection. Go try to run a local election. See how challenging it is organize. See how many mistakes you make. Go try to build an app without bugs. See how far you get. It's easy to bitch about stuff when you have zero experience building it. Building complex systems is always far more challenging than it seems.
  8. Test it and report back your results. Keep in mind, people are different. You should not assume that what's true for another is true for you.
  9. This is a great example of challenging herd mentality and ideology. Imagine how challenging this was for his mind to do. It's great to see a handful of conservatives with integrity and courage. It's important to remember that there ARE decent conservatives out there. They aren't all MAGA. It's problematic to hold the stereotype that all conservatives are bad or irredeemable. Always remember that there is no such thing as "a conservative". There is diversity within such broad categories. One of the dangers of the Trump phenomenon is that many decent conservatives are not given a voice. After Trump is gone it's important that there be a rebuilding of the conservative party into something with more integrity, because roughly half the country leans conservative and you will never get them to all become liberals. So either there will be a healthy expression of conservativism or an unhealthy one. It is in the best interest of Bernie supporters to understand this and support healthy expressions of conservativism. Because the alternative would be worse.
  10. @Rasheed Accept and love yourself as you are.
  11. There is something in between panic and apathy. Panic is not as effective as consciousness. Panic tends to compound the problem. What you really mean to say is that we should be highly conscious and responsible.
  12. If you want to understand surrender imagine yourself being locked into a cage and tortured every day for the rest of your life with no possibility of escape. Your only option then is surrender.
  13. @Hardik Replace home with forum and that sounds perfect
  14. Criminals, rapists, mass shooters, terrorists. Do you dare love a terrorist?
  15. Robert Reich has a great politics channel. Very common-sense guy, progressive yet non-dogmatic, with a good heart.
  16. 1 gram is easy to handle solo. You don't need people distracting you like mosquitoes. We live in truth, they live in a bubble of their own ignorance.
  17. They are part of the election. There are two elections: 1) To pick who will be the one person to face off against Trump 2) That person vs Trump It's very important to pick the best person to face Trump. Picking Hilary Clinton last time was what got Trump elected. If we pick a good person Trump should be easy to beat.
  18. Disrespect is not about the psychedelic's feelings. It's about the community of humans who use such tools for accessing God. If I take a shit on your mom's carpet, it's not the carpet I disrespect, it's your mother.
  19. You disrespect psychedelics by calling them "drugs." That's like me referring to your mother as a walking sack of meat.
  20. User @Deezeetho has been banned. The purge of toxic users continues.
