The Mystical Man

The soundtrack is great:

I'm disappointed by your conclusion, frankly.

For me, the benefits are not subtle at all. The effects of excessive dopamine are debilitating. Masturbation is also an undignified act; therefore, the knowledge that you haven't committed this act for a while raises your self-esteem. It simply feels so much better not to do it than to do it.

I hardly made it through the first episode of the Netflix show. It's well-produced and well-shot. But the writing and acting isn't bearable.

Adorable ?

Wednesday is so cute ?

Amazing book. Get it here. Branden is the great speaker you'd expect him to be:

Just a few months after the publication of Philosopher's Stone:

This is going to be great: I was hoping for something like this. I love the title. ??‍♀️

I wasn't good at anything. Not even English ? I wish I had studied psychology, maybe even psychiatry. Alas, it's too late ?

On May 13th, Adya and Spira will meet ?

It's nice to have Adya back:

Jung. His contribution is something to behold. We take his ideas for granted these days, but it's amazing that he managed to come up with those concepts. I like Terence McKenna, too, even though I don't agree with many of his ideas. I don't even advocate the use of psychedelics. But I listen to him, because I have a soft spot for great speakers and masters of the English language. I'll listen to an eloquent wordsmith regardless of what he says. "McKenna once said that he would have become a Nabokov lecturer if he had never encountered psychedelics." You gotta love the lovers of language.

Brad's background is tough: I wish I had pursued the career of a psychotherapist.

? Avatar 3 is obvious, but are you sure about the others?

Radical honesty in action: "I resent you for saying that." ?

What's sick is to believe such a thing.

I'm not obsessed with it. It may seem that way, though.
