Keep searching for more examples. I want more strange loops! We need to have the biggest repository of strange loops on the planet here.

Nice! That is fucking amazing! Now that's a proper strange loop!

@Conscious life You've totally blocked yourself from ever awakening. Think about it. Pretty sad, really. My condolences. Consider yourself lucky that that stubborn, closedminded avatar and it's mind will die. Otherwise you'd be trapped in your self-created hell forever.

LOL

You don't need to stop dating or having sex to awaken. Many awakened people have sex. In fact I would say most of them.

Sounds like you need a much high dose because for whatever reason you are very tolerant to plugging. It's crucial your bowels are totally empty otherwise it won't work.

I tease. Tom Campbell's a great guy.

@fi1ghtclub Stop imagining that you're human and then maybe you could do some cool new stuff

Lots of people bring passion and craft to their profession, but they don't get paid $25 million/year for it because they are not throwing balls into baskets. It requires a society which values balls in baskets to pay that kind of money for that kind of activity. You ain't gonna earn $25 mil/year throwing horse shoes, no matter how much passion or creativity you do it with. Then again, DudePerfect earns $20 mil/year throwing things:

A difference you are imagining. You are really going to debate the definition of "throw"?

Good to know you're not a rapist

First of all, you are far more needy than even you admit. Not just with online dates but offline dates too. When the opportunity for good sex presents itself, your mind will start craving it and clinging to it. Why are you so overthinking this? All you gotta know is: Do you want to have sex with that person? If yes, set up the fucking date and be interested in it, yet detached and non-needy. How do you become non-needy? By going on dozens of dates with dozens of people until it starts to feel normal. It also helps to have a decent amount of sex (with one person or many) so that you get your sexual hunger satisfied, at least somewhat. Most men are like starved dogs who haven't eaten in a month. Of course you will be needy for food in that situation. Look, the reality is, if you're just starting PUA you will be very needy for the first year or two. That's par for the course. Struggle through it and do the best you can. Try to contain your neediness when possible. As you see how your neediness turns off and loses you many hot girls, the pain of those losses will teach you to surrender your neediness more and more.

@fi1ghtclub See #2. You haven't contemplated that point about apples and oranges deeply enough. A human avatar is a finite thing. It is not meant to muck around with the physical laws. For the same reason that Trump is not allowed to rewrite the US Constitution to suit his will. Because his will is the will of a devil. How would you like it if Trump could materialize a bomb over your head? You'd be here complaining about how evil God is to allow such a thing. Yet when God disallows such a thing, you are here complaining about it. Because you are not clearly thinking through what you're asking. It's like you're a baby playing with a loaded gun, completely oblivious of what it can do. And you complain when your parents hide it from you.

Yes, and I'm pointing out to you that Jesus was an avatar. The Godhead cannot be hated or loved by people because only the awakened know that a Godhead even exists. You can't see the Godhead, only its avatar.

An avatar for basketball. The Godhead doesn't play basketball since it is absolutely formless. Look up the definition of "avatar".

He rarely makes a big picture point. He likes to ramble around, lost in details and examples, down some rabbit hole.

It can be negative, but it can also be healthy and positive. If you value improving your country for the benefit of all citizens, that's a good thing. If you turn it into nationalism, that's a toxic thing. I didn't want to exclude stage Blue people. Many of them value service to country/culture. Yes, it can become toxic, but doesn't have to.

@Yog So does it prove God?

Maybe I should order a painting of George W Bush wearing his green bomber jumpsuit on top of a mountain of 100,000 Iraqi corpses. A little tribute to neoliberalism.

Understandable. Losing touch with God is rough.

Because there are 1000x less helicopters than cars in that 100 mile area. Helicopters are an elite mode of transport, like how carriages used to be. If you are the only one driving around in a carriage because you're so rich only you can afford it, then yeah, you'll be very safe. Until everyone else gets a horse-less carriage.

It is funny because I got the idea to start Actualized.org from watching Tyler's earliest videos. He was a sort of pioneer of early YouTube marketing. I even approached him in person back in 2012 to start a self-actualization channel but he was too into pickup back then to go all-in on personal development and spirituality. His plan was to exhaust pickup fully and then go all-in on personal dev. (Or so I think.) I think deep down he has a good heart and he would make an amazing warrior sage. But he's also got a really massive ego. Hard to tell how that will hash out. I wish him full God-realization. If he ever attains full God-realization he will become a powerful, powerful Bodhisattva and a source of light unto the world. But will it actually happen? That's the question. My guess is yes, but it will be an ordeal and take a long time. Men have been hitting on women since the dawn of time. It ain't about to stop. It's merely a question of: Will they do it skillfully or unskillfully? What's more disgusting is online incels who are too afraid to even talk to a woman, blame women, and then go shoot up an elementary school because they can't get laid. But of course even that is not disgusting. It's totally understandable. You have to appreciate how strong the sex drive is in men. It will not just sit quietly. Either it will be channeled in a healthy way or an extremely unhealthy way. Men who can't figure out a healthy way of getting laid will create social disturbance, start wars and fascist movements. In this sense RSD is helping the world to avoid that.

I know your struggle. But there's only so much time in the day to teach. Pickup is a journey. You must struggle through it to get it, and then transcend it. Just begin with the mountains of material that's already on YT. You'll figure it out if you try. And enjoy the process. Don't make it just about the results. There's always ways you can screw something up or make it into a dysfunction. You are taking rejection too personally because you're so desperate for success. Your neediness becomes its own hell. You gotta learn to date in a less needy way. Go to the nightclub/bar and enjoy yourself for once. Enjoy being there. Enjoy talking to new people. Try not to make it a chore or something you do to get a score. Yes, learning social skills is key. It's perhaps even more important and fundamental than dating itself. Your larger goal should be to learn how to socialize effortlessly. This comes with lots of practice. Simply by being more social you will attract lots of women automatically. The biggest reason for incels is that they simply aren't social enough. And Facebook and Reddit don't count as being social here. These are all great things. Yes, master them all. No, learning those things will not turn you into a people pleasing entertainer. It will just make you much more magnetic and comfortable in conversation. You will also enjoy your conversations more, not just with women but with men and everyone. Once you are good at conversation, conversation becomes enjoyable for its own sake. Then you have the best of both worlds. Women and men will flock to you. Who doesn't love a good conversationalist/story-teller? Have you ever met a really good conversationalist who drew you in for hours?

The look of terror on JP's face is priceless Zizek has won.
