How do you become more selfless?
How do you become more selfless?By sitting in silent meditation for many hours.
You can't really act your way into selflessness. You must raise your consciousness to realize that self is a constructed coping mechanism.

How do you become more selfless?
How do you become more selfless?Don't worry about that. You should be worrying about the opposite.
And giving half your salary to a homeless person is foolish. You shouldn't strive for that.
What you demonstrate here are egoic fantasies of selflessness, not the real thing.

I am a materialist. Convince me with the idea that I am more than a body
I am a materialist. Convince me with the idea that I am more than a bodyThere is zero scientific proof that you are a body. No such proof could exist even in theory.
You assume a lot of things about "science" which science has never actually said nor demonstrated. You sneak in a lot of metaphysical assumptions when you think about science because you are being sloppy and arrogant.

Andrew Tate Arrested
Andrew Tate ArrestedArrogance.
Not strange at all for Tate.
Tate being gulity of trafficking women is precisely in line with his character. How do you think he made those millions? Through honest work helping people? Ha! How gullible are you?
The reason Tate has the attitude towards women that he doesn't is because he exploits them. And he also exploits men. That's what a "hustler" does. Hustler = exploiter.

I always awaken on LSD but drop down the next Day - Why??
I always awaken on LSD but drop down the next Day - Why??That's how chemicals work.
You will never be as conscious sober as you will on chemicals just like you will never be as strong as if you're taking steroids or as happy as if you're taking opium.

Being offensive / insensitive when spontaneously joking?

Sarcasm does not work well via text so just skip it there.

I'm just one person out of billions of people so why even have a life purpose?
I'm just one person out of billions of people so why even have a life purpose?That's like saying, "Why eat, since there are 8 billion stomachs in the world?"
Maybe so, but the only empty stomach that you feel is yours.

How to Start a Conversation with a Girl?
How to Start a Conversation with a Girl?In daytime situations like that your best bet is an authentic opener that just narrates how you feel. Like this:
"Hey there. I know this seems random, but I was literally just sitting there when I saw you and felt the urge to say Hello but didn't know what to say because I thought it would come off weird. But anyways, here we are. My name is _____ . Who are you?"
Or you can just do a very streamlined opener:
"Hey there. You caught my eye so I wanted to meet you real quick. Hi, I'm ______ ."
This opener works for basically any situation and it is honest.
The most powerful openers are observational and situational. You notice something about the girl's appearance and make a comment based on that. These kind of openers are a bit more advanced because you have to train yourself to be good at observing the girl. These require experience.

USA Lawmakers Introduce Bill To Ban TikTok in USA
USA Lawmakers Introduce Bill To Ban TikTok in USAThe difference is, China has strict regulations on kids/teens watching social media. US has zero.
China litterally forces the algorithm to show educational and science videos to kids. And kids are limited to something like 2hrs of social media and video games per week.
Meanwhile America is breeding a generation of morons addicted to silly dance videos.
This kind of moral decay is exactly the legit aspect of conservative fears.

How to maintain a social state
How to maintain a social stateThere is no way around building and maintaining momentum.
Going out consistently keeps you sharp. If you stop going out, you will get dull.
I know professional pickup coaches who have slept with 500+ girls, but if they stop going out for a few months, they will lose their momentum and their game will not be great until they build the momentum back up.
But as you get better, you will be able to build up your momentum faster.

Leo, please elaborate about capitalism and communism
Leo, please elaborate about capitalism and communismOf course they aren't. Because they are not stupid.
China is not a socialist state. It is a capitalistic monstrosity with a socialist veneer of bullshit just enough to sustain a happy level of authoritarianism.

Deleting Your Sense of Self
Deleting Your Sense of SelfIt's not a matter of duration. You are focused on the wrong factor. The most relevant factor is Consciousness. How conscious are you?
It is of little consolation to be mildly conscious permanently.
Ideally you would be highly conscious permanently, but that's a tall order to fill. You gotta start somehwere. So at least start with being highly conscious for 5 minutes so you even know what is possible.
What you ultimately want is the consciousness of God. So just pursue that and see how far you get. Meditation will still be necessary.

My situation, feel lost
My situation, feel lostAt the very least move into that next-door house. That will give you at least a bit of space. From there you can make other plans.
I think you need to work on two things:
1) Socialization & dating skills
2) Job/career so you can pay your own rent and live wherever you want.
You can work on both independently. Your social problems will automatically start to correct once you start going out and talking to girls. Start going out to bars/clubs every Fri/Sat at least. This will build up your confidence. And it doesn't matter that you live with your parents as long as there are some bars/clubs around or other social spaces you can go.
Don't worry, you are still young and have time to fix all this.
Also, for your age, you still got a very nice savings going. If you have that kind of money what is the problem moving out?
Stock market will rebound. Focus on the long-term. Don't even look at the stocks for the next year or two. They will improve on their own.

Is it true that one cannot change his/her core personality traits?
Is it true that one cannot change his/her core personality traits?You can expand your capacity with all of the different functions, however, you will still have functions which are your strengths, which come easier to you, which you fall back on when you're most relaxed and natural. That's really what your Myers-Briggs type says about you. How are you when you're not huffing and puffing to be somebody?
You can also shore up the functions that you're weak in, so you're not crippled by those weaknesses. For example, if you're an introvert crippled in social situations, you can correct that so you can function in social situations, although you'll still be an introvert at heart. That's what I did. And it was worthwhile to do. But I still love being an introvert at my core but it's not really a problem any more.

Does it matter how conscious your Girlfriend is?
Does it matter how conscious your Girlfriend is?Be careful being too demanding in relationships. Relate to the person at the level they are at, not where you need them to be.
You're not gonna find a perfect girl. She doesn't exist.

nightclub etiquette? (danceclub)
nightclub etiquette? (danceclub)@Emotionalmosquito Way too try-hard. Dancing at the club is not about being technically good. It's about just being a goofball.
The #1 mistake of dancing at the club is trying to make it look smooth, cool, and professional. When you behave this way you're not properly in state and you will make girls cringe.
Stop caring how you look. Get into state and then just open every girl.
Enjoy yourself rather than trying to impress people.
A good technique is to dance like an idiot on purpose. You and your wing try to dance in the most idiotic way possible. It's a race to the bottom, not the top.
Don't confuse club dancing with pro dancing you see in music videos. That shit is all fake and staged. No one is having fun doing that.

Is it true that one cannot change his/her core personality traits?It's actually easier for me to talk without notes, but the talk will not be as well structured and important insights will slip my mind.
My Jordan Peterson video is probably my best video done off the top of my head.

Police Cam Mega-Thread
Police Cam Mega-ThreadI never claimed anything was wrong.
Most of the police actions on this YT channel are fully justified. Which shows that police are doing a good job, on the whole.
Occasionally you see excessive use of force -- it certainly exists -- but it's quite rare and you understand why police must err on the side of caution when dealing with such scumbags. If police were more lax, they'd be dead. So it's hard to blame them for being trigger happy once in a while.
One important thing I learned from watching all these videos is that if someone is charging at you while you have a gun, you gotta shoot him way more times than I thought. I used to think that you could put 1-2 bullets in him and stop him. But now I realize that's not nearly enough. You'd want to shot him at least 10 times.

Police Cam Mega-Thread
Police Cam Mega-ThreadMost of them have mental illness, or are on drugs, or are career criminals with a record of felonies, probation, and arrest warrants. Many of their lives suck so bad that they look forward to death. They have little to lose, nothing to live for. Many of them are at stage Red levels of development. These are the kids in school who always caused trouble and never listened to authority.
