How do you know if others perceive it as an A game? Kinda sus.

She won't appear out of the blue if she isn't already emotionally invested in you. Build a solid plan. But before that, try having a long solid conversation, if she keeps going, you know she is interested, if not, most likely she will flake on it.

I don’t think authenticity is a scam, but I do think the popular definition of it is immature. Authenticity isn’t radical transparency—it’s integrity across contexts. Every human being translates themselves depending on where they are, right? the difference is that conscious people notice the translation, and that awareness creates friction. What you’re calling a “character” isn’t necessarily false, it’s a partial expression designed to be metabolized by the social environment. Most people don’t reject truth, they reject being overwhelmed, destabilized, or made to feel small by it. So resonance happens at the level of recognition, not depth. The split you’re feeling doesn’t come from having multiple selves—it comes from believing only one of them is real or worthy of connection. That belief turns a natural social adaptation into a moral conflict. Consciousness often trades mass resonance for precision, fewer people, slower connection, but less distortion over time. There is an alternative reality but it isn’t mainstream and it isn’t efficient. It’s built through selective honesty, patience, and accepting that not everyone is meant to meet you at your interior depth. The fatigue eases when you stop asking the wrong layer of people to recognize the whole of you. Hope that makes sense.

There are health apps on phone that act like a smartwatch. I'm just wondering how accurate all these AI devices will be in the future or just another tech gimmick.

Get blood work done to rule out possibilities or health issues that interfere with appetite. You need to build discipline and maintain balanced control over what you consume, then slowly introduce more or different foods over time.If you push too hard too quickly, your body can revert to its old patterns, and eventually the weight is likely to return.Do the emotional work—learn to feel and process your emotions instead of numbing or suppressing them with food. This is a major factor. Avoid the foods that contributed to weight gain in the first place, and replace them with whole foods or healthier alternatives. Exercise daily and spend time outdoors. Stay occupied so boredom doesn’t trigger cravings or the urge to eat for a quick “reward.”Gut health strongly influences the brain. I recommend getting tests done to check liver and gut health to rule out underlying issues.

VFX is safer but SFX feels real.

I thought it was the other way round. Consciousness was inside space.

Thank you.

That's fascinating. Do you often do that?

Well said and I absolutely agree. Even the identity of “one who has awakened” must eventually fall away. Otherwise, spirituality becomes just another costume the mind wears to avoid disappearing.

Omg yes you did

Lmao, isn't that unusual?

I wonder if part of the exhaustion comes from trying to hold everything at once—the whole ocean instead of the next breath or the next step. Maybe steadiness doesn’t come from comprehending the entire cascade, but from recognizing which currents we’re actually responding to in a given moment. We don’t need to know what’s doing all the bumping to orient ourselves. Sometimes it’s enough to notice where we are, how we’re reacting, and what helps us stay balanced—without turning the chaos into a cosmic verdict.

Do you think they're delusional too?

We don’t move from not knowing straight into wisdom—we pass through assumptions, partial clarity, and even false certainty. That’s often how understanding refines itself. Maybe the mistake wasn’t “thinking you knew,” but holding on to that knowing too tightly. Openness isn’t just saying I don’t know—it’s also being willing to let go the moment reality contradicts our assumptions, without turning it into self-punishment. You couldn’t have fully avoided it, because insight often only arrives after experience. What you can carry forward is humility, curiosity, and a softer grip on conclusions. Not as fear—just as flexibility.

What would your opinion be about buddhist monks that can withstand any temperature?

I get where you’re coming from. When basic things like money, stability, or companionship feel missing, it’s hard to care about meditation or yoga. Survival needs are real, and pretending otherwise just creates more frustration. That said, practices like meditation or yoga aren’t meant to replace fixing your life or meeting practical needs. They’re tools, not solutions by themselves. If they’re adding pressure, guilt, or a sense that you’re “failing spiritually,” it’s okay to step back. There’s no punishment for stopping. You won’t regret listening to what you genuinely need right now. Regret usually comes from forcing yourself to follow someone else’s path instead of responding honestly to your own circumstances. If and when meditation feels supportive again, it’ll find its way back naturally. Until then, focusing on grounding, work, relationships, and small tangible steps is not a step backward — it’s part of being human. Nothing is wasted. Even the year you practiced taught your nervous system something. You don’t lose that just because you pause.

It sounds like you’re doing okay, even if it doesn’t feel that way right now. The path to spiritual awakening isn’t comfortable or pleasant. First, the familiar joys and positive emotions seem to drain away, and then the heavier emotions rise to the surface to be felt and released. Before my own awakening, everything felt ominous. There was a constant sense of impending doom, shadows felt alive, and I felt disconnected from myself—almost mechanical, as if I were losing my humanity. And then, quietly, something beautiful unfolded. Not through force or understanding, but through acceptance. Let whatever arises pass through you. There’s nothing you need to fix or chase. Even hope can be gently set down for now. What’s real will meet you where you are.

Why are they your enemies?

That's terrible.

The worst example of conformity is green smoothie and the vegan all fruit diets.

How can you say you don't need money? Whose paying your internet?

The cope is astounding. They need to lick the taste of defeat sooner or later.
