  1. If you use an untrustworthy test to measure your health you will not only get useless results but even harmful results. So watch out.
  2. Cognitive scientists don't even know that hypermind exists. So how are they supposed to study it? I'm not saying it's impossible, but we are a century out from meaningful work in this area.
  3. @Juan The format of shorts is inherently trashy. I see shorts on YT and Instagram. They are a waste of time. I don't want to be on a platform that is made entirely of shorts and no way to control the content but endless scrolling. This is a trash format designed for mindless addicted rats.
  4. Memes celebrating psychedelics. Post 'em if you got 'em.
  5. Musk doesn't have enough money to buy it. But if he did, he could rename it: ToXic.
  6. Thanks again everyone.
  7. The why is easier than the what in this case. People who don't experience pain die young. This is scientific fact, not just speculation.
  8. You have to start by figuring out what you want. Getting very clear about that. It's hard to help you if you are so vague and general. Good advice requires specificity. We need to understand your goals, your values, your situation, your sticking points, your strengths.
  9. It's hard to say about stuff like that because you have nothing to go on but your direct experience in the end. The rest is guess-work.
  10. There can be a connection. But that's not a connection my teachings explore. Treating mental illness is a niche specialization. It requires specialized experience and expertise. It's not like giving general life advice because you could really harm already fragile people. Therapists who specialize in that go through special training and they get special certifications. And even then it's an uphill battle to help such people. This task requires a lot of time and close attention which I cannot provide over the internet.
  11. I'm conflicted on this ban. It's a mixed bag. TikTok is trashy, but now all that traffic or business is gonna go to some US tech monopoly.
  12. Mearsheimer is a reasonable guy. I was speaking not against him per se, but about the trap of turning his perspective into a kind of doomerism within your own mind. Your mind is cherrypicking all these political videos you watch to form its own worldview, and if you do this carelessly then you might end up in hell, even though the world at large is doing fine.
  13. Diet can be a big factor for causing it. Have your tried elimination dieting?
  14. The better analogy is: if you fell of a ladder and broke your leg, you wouldn't go to Socrates or Plato to fix you. You'd go to a physician.
  15. You can't talk someone out of BPD and I am not anyone's therapist. Don't get the wrong idea about what I do. I am a philosopher. I do not deal with mental illness.
  16. Don't glorify your aloneness. Go make some friends. Not normie friends, but friends on your level of development. Seek out a few spiritually advanced freinds.
  17. Hair test is not trustworthy. Provocation is.
  18. No. Not even sure what that means. I don't know about that.
  19. You can find so many examples of Israeli spokespersons all over media spreading bullshit. I am too lazy to compile it all. Should be obvious by now if you watch the news. I'm not looking for an answer. Zionists gonna zionize.
  20. You don't necessarily need a cure. You just need improvement in how you feel.
  21. Israel is not on the side of truth in this situation. It's playing shameless survival games. The rest it minutia. And even worse, Israel drags America into its untruthful games. If Israel wants to play its games, fine, but leave America out of it.
