DMT is too short, but 5-MeO is just right without monopolizing your whole day.

You are basically describing the human condition. We are social creatures. We value and need to be part of a community and we all love to have our worldview, biases, and emotions validated back to us. You're not going to avoid this problem. This problem will exist to some degree within any community or socialization activity. So bite the bullet and learn to socialize consciously.

Your youth is worth way more than $30k. Everything gets harder as you get older. So strike while the iron is hot. Delaying your life for 3 years just to put $30k into an ETF is not wise. Get started on building the core of your life right away. Success here will pay dividends for the rest of your life. The sooner you invest in your LP the more it will pay off. Youth is the time to be aggressive and highly active. Building up an investment portfolio is something best done when you're in your late 30s and 40s once you have a solid career/biz/income. You are not going to get rich from investing, you are going to get rich from building a high income which you can then invest. The key to good investing is income.

I would advise against buying a house when you're so young because you probably want to keep your options open. Buying a house really ties you down. You want to be as agile as possible and keep your expenses as low as possible if you want to start your own biz or make a career transition. Owning a house comes with many extra expenses and it's also a pretty big time sink to take care of it. It's also expensive to sell a house because you will lose like 5% on commission alone. Nevermind all the other fees and mortgage stuff. Buying a house right now is a bad idea because the market is so inflated. Maybe it will make more sense in 2-3 years if the real estate market crashes and you see some great deals. But even then, at your age I'd say agility and freedom are more important than owning a house. You can always buy a house in 10 years. When you are young you should be focused on developing the best biz and career you can so that you get a great income. Then buying a house will be easy. But of course I don't know your situation and priorities so this advice may not apply to you.

Good for you. Yes, the older you get the less materialistic goals seem to satisfy.

Usually woke is harmless, but it can go too far and even become harmful at extremes.

Green tends to overcorrect on racism. Green is motivated to correct inequality, which ironically requires treating people unequaly. Handicapped people get special treatment. Is this right or wrong? Who is to say how much special treatment is too much? What if we gave every handicapped person a helicopter, would that be fair or unfair? Who gets to say?

That was God teaching you a lesson to make mushroom tea next time and take ginger

Now take it

That's a lot of stuff.

Don't waste our time with your nonsense.

Because that would be way too easy, haha Now the real work begins

@johnlocke18 Do not even start with your nonsense. He was being a jerk towards Preety plain and simple. Who you date is totally up to you. This is not license for being a jerk.

@Preety_India I delete his replies and issued him a warning and temp suspension.

I wasn't talking about trust. I was talking about setting up an independent appeals board. This board should be totally independent of Musk or any corporate owner. That's not going to solve it. "Evenhandedness in moderation" is precisely begging the question.

Dude, what the fuck?? Stop wasting your time talking to girls. What you need is to purchase some courses/products on dating advice for men. You are missing the basic theory of how to attract women. Spend a few months just reading and listening and taking notes on the correct theory. If you don't have the right theory you can't properly practice. What you're currently doing will never work so don't even waste your time.

I don't because plugged psychedelics don't really cause nausea for me.

No idea

@vizual Stop spreading nonsense on this forum.

Take ginger pills or drink ginger tea to reduce nausea.

Be careful, he's probably sleeping with many girls. But it doesn't hurt to test the waters and see where things lead. As you get to know him, try to get a sense of what he's looking for in a relationship with a girl. Is he just sleeping around with anyone available or is he looking for something deeper?

This is a very cool perspective. Never thought about Buddhism and psychedelics much together. But is makes a lot of sense. It's safe to assume most religions got a kickstart with psychedelics.

I don't understand, take it out for what? To me the biggest point of building up a savings is to be able to use it to launch your own career/LP/biz by taking time off from a grinding 9-5 job. You want to have enough savings so you're no forced into a desperate position where you must work a job you hate just to pay the bills. Making $8k/mo is really good salary. I would save up as much of that as I could, maybe even for a few years, and then go do my own thing. You need to be realistic about how long it takes to start making money doing your own thing. You'll want at least enough savings to sustain you for 2 years. But ideally more. Don't expect to make enough money to pay your bills within 6-12 months. You need wiggle room when launching your own thing. It's also very important to cut all your expenses to the bone. Live cheaply while starting your own thing. Move to a city where rent is cheap. Once your biz is doing well you can move to a better place/city.

Okay, that may be a fair case of over-moderation. You have to take into account that no moderation will ever be perfect. Twitter needs to have a moderation overview board similar to Facebook, like an appeals court, where big moderation decisions can be submitted for reversal. I don't see why Musk needs that. He doesn't need to pay $44B for brand promotion. His brands are as popular as ever and don't need any special boost like this. He could have gotten a lot more brand visibility by spending a few billion on ads.
