I’m curious what the most common traps are in relationships. I’ve never been in one before, and maybe I never will, but I’m still curious. Also, do you think never getting into a relationship is a trap? It wasn’t my intention, but that’s how things turned out.

Survival is exhausting. I feel like having another pair of hands to share day to day tasks with is a much better survival strategy. Marriage and relationships were seen in a much more utilitarian sense in the past, but can’t you still hold that perspective today? Imagine if someone wanted to be in a relationship with you. You like them and enjoy they’re company, but you’re not over the moon about them or anything. Would it be wrong to get into a relationship with this person primarily to make life a little easier? I’m not saying to just take advantage of them and offer no value in return. Both parties aid the other’s survival, but one party isn’t necessarily in love. Is that wrong?

Femininity seems to be an amalgamation of certain dispositions, attitudes, and behaviors both men and women can exhibit, but why does femininity even exist? And why am I attracted to it? I also have quite a bit of contempt toward it’s approach to life, often finding it foolish and immature, yet I still find it enthralling.

For example, the way women add a decorative touch to a dead space, or how they’re more intuitive, or how they give up control and flow with life. This is femininity, and it’s attractive. But I don’t know why.

@MarkKol I clarified it was the behaviors, dispositions, and attitudes that are attractive. That is femininity. A vagina and boobs in a vacuum is not femininity, although they are still attractive. But why are the behaviors, dispositions, and attitudes attractive?

I was in complete denial I was bi until I did LSD for the first time. I’ve also theorized maybe all humans are bi, but social conditioning makes it unconscious. I don’t know if that’s true or not.

@Princess Arabia I asked a woman what she would do if she won the lottery. She said she’d never wear the same outfit twice ever again. It was the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard, but it was also really cute and enticing and now I like her more.

@Javfly33 I’m bi btw.

I guess you have a point.

@Sugarcoat @Lila9 This doesn’t really address the question at all. The question was why is femininity attractive. I personally have contempt toward its approach to life sometimes, sue me. That is neither good nor bad, it is an opinion.

I want to understand what exactly is holding me back from Turquoise. I think my values mostly align with Yellow, I do not seem to posses the love of others and community that this stage embodies so well. In my personal study of the spiral dynamics model, I believe being immersed in a community of this vMeme would evolve my psyche, but we’re can you find these people? Also, have you ever met a Turquoise human being? Are you at Turquoise yourself?

@puporing Do you have any suggestions to transcend Yellow?

I find binaural beats and brainstorming help, but I desperately need better ideas. How can I access the creativity of God to become a better entrepreneur?

@Leo Gura I have experience with them but they can be a hassle to acquire. Have you found nootropics helpful for creativity? Marijuana will be legal in MD on July 1st, has that helped you in any way?

I wanted to learn how to reprogram my mind. Why would I buy some alien-love-consciousness course if I can't even get being human halfway decent? What about my survival, Leo? I am sad.

@Leo Gura Do you think the oligarchs around him still support this war with all the sanctions?

@Alex_R China just watched Russia get raped by sanctions and modern military aid, Taiwan is off the table for good.

The rising tension between NATO and Russia will end civilization if strategic decisions aren't made. I understand the animosity toward Russia after this unprovoked attack on the sovereignty of the people of Ukraine, but we can't let our emotions dictate our geo-politics, we NEED to eliminate all possibility for a third world war. I propose the west do everything in its power to holistically weave Russia into the rest of Europe, this includes NATO membership, EU membership, open trade, supply-chain linkage, foreign investment and venture capital, open borders, and generally anything that will meteorically stimulate the Russian economy. The key here is to make Russia so rich, and so politically and financially interdependent on its neighbors, that the idea of Russia invading its neighbors becomes as absurd as France invading Germany. With a standard of living as high as western Europe, Russia could liberalize and the collective spiral dynamic stage of its people and leaders will begin to lean more toward stage-orange and later even Green. This could also lead to effects such as denuclearization, less corruption, pro-democracy populism, better education, less nationalism, less ethnocentrism, less debt, and over all, less reasons to behave like a nineteenth century empire! This will probably take decades of diplomacy, but what are the alternatives? War with Russia?

@Dryas Fuck Off! I'm not that cringe. Did you have a better idea?
