@axiom I would be very suspicious of your "final layer" if I were you.

But they will acknowledge that there are billions of lives of other creatures. And so the chances that you would be any one of them is pretty high. Of course that's all silly because you are God, you have no life per se, and your existence is 100% Absolute. The notion of "lives" is problematic and needs to be transcended. Your existence is not a life. Your existence is Absolute Truth.

That's pretty cool!

I have it, but I can't be bothered to read it. Whatever he wrote is way less profound than what I can get from just contemplating the nature of God. There's very little I get from books these days. I don't doubt that it's a good book as far as books go.

What does this mean? Be specific about your problem. Are you struggling to attract women? To keep them? What?

Look, dude, artists are never gonna be replaced. Just use the AI to help you make even better art. This is not bad news, this great news! Humans and AI will cooperate to create amazing stuff. You're looking at this whole thing with such a narrow perspective. There is a nearly endless need that humans have for art. Your job is not so much to put pencil to paper but to come up with art projects that are really worthwhile. Serious art projects require vision, taste, and leadership. AI will not replace that. You have a rare opportunity here to be on the cutting edge of art, if you have some vision and play your cards right. You could makes millions and even billions here. Imagine being able to make a graphic novel using AI by giving it the right prompts.

Sad

"Are you single?"

No it isn't.

Do 100 more trips and you'll be fine.

No

Why need a therapist at that point?

Something like that.

You need a much higher state of consciousness. The normal human state cannot stop imagining the future. You can't just wish death away through some trick of reasoning. If you were in a state of consciousness where death was seen to obviously be imaginary, you would no longer be human, you would be God.

Your existence isn't luck. You are Absolute Truth.

Nothing is next. There is no next. Next-ness is a dream.

@Tristan12 Tristan is Leo.

Once you understand Reality, it is impossible to die. Because you are God and you are everywhere at once, at Absolutely all times. Death is purely imaginary. But to understand this is no small feat. Once you understand it you will drown in Infinite Love. Truth/Love is the impossibility of death. Consciousness cannot die. Ever. Consciousness is too Awake to die. Why would God allow itself to die? God is Absolute. God cannot die because it has nowhere else to God. What you don't understand yet is that death assumes somewhere else you can go. Some other. But God has no other. God is Infinite Self.

This dude is taking this so personally. YT obviously has to skillfully navigate and play power games with big national governments. This guy is acting like YT should just surrender the entire Russian market because of a few violations of his copyright. He is technically correct about the copyright violations, but he's so naive about how geo-politics works. I'm not defending YT per se, but to expect YT to give up the entire Russian market for one guy is laughably naive. Geo-politics is messy stuff, and there are basically no laws or rules when it comes to dealing with a nation like Russia. At these high levels of power games, nothing is clean and pure as this guy wants. He's too entitled. You have to take into account that if Russia kicks out YT, Russia's YT replacement will not give a damn about copyright at all. They will copy all videos and post them in Russian and he will have zero legal recourse. Because US copyright standards don't exist in Russia. Welcome to worldwide affairs, where there is no law. Yes, it would be nice if YT cracked down on Russian shenanigans, but I wouldn't hold my breath. This is not the hill to die on. If you're a content creator of any kind you should basically accept a 5% piracy rate on your content no matter what. Brick and mortar stores have to accept a certain shoplifting rate. It's just part of the cost of doing business. To get all moralistic about it and to expect perfection is silly and a distraction from your creative work. People pirate and violate my copyright. It's par for the course. Realistically, this guy suffered very little financial damage from these copyright violations. His channel's success has not be injured in the slightest. But he wants to get puritanical about it. Okay, enjoy the endless drama. A key lesson in life is to differentiate between what's worth fighting for and what isn't. This is one of those cases where this guy has created a lot of needless suffering for himself with very little upside. Sometimes in life injustices will happen to you and you just gotta be wise enough to let them go. Especially when it costs you nothing.

Obviously you can do dinner dates later on. As she invests more in you, you can invest more in her.

What does this have to do with creating music? If you love creating music you shouldn't care what musician raped whom. Focus on the craft of creating art, not petty human bullshit. You don't need a hero, focus on the joy of your craft.

Your grandfather is a figment of your mind. If you stop thinking about the future it doesn't exist. So you imagine. No, death is real for you because you picture it in your mind. If you stop picturing it, it doesn't happen. No, you're imagining the past too. So there's really no one to speak to, unless you dream up a past. Which of course you do. But your dream also has constrains such as not being able to talk to dead people. Then again, you could perhaps find ways round those constrains. Nothing is really stopping you from talking to your grandfather since he's a figment of your mind. That's part of the dream that is my life. Within your dream you can set goals for yourself, if they please you. These goals give the dream meaning, making it significant. Legacy is a relative notion, it has no absolute reality. But if I'm here dreaming I might as well make the most of it.

Well, it's all about expectations. Most dates I set up are either "grab a coffee" or "grab a drink", so she shouldn't be expecting food. And if she complains about being hungry on the date you can get her a snack, or smarter yet, have snacks ready in your kitchen.

What? No!
