  1. @Elliott Realistically what you could hope for is a woman who's going to hug you when you come home from work and tell you that she loves you.
  2. MIMINUM? He said the only problem with his wife is that she's intellectually not his equal. That means she qualifies at every level except for one. Anyways the problem has nothing to do with the girl it has to do with him not having experience, and not knowing what life is about and prioritizing small details that and he thinks fixing these small details are going to bring him happiness
  3. You're at the beginning of the journey not the end. That perfect woman doesn't exist, you're going to find someone marginally of better compatibility. Don't confuse one realization for understanding the whole journey here. Who ever you date will have strengths and weaknesses.
  4. Let's assume someone does not have a scarcity mindset, they do have options and yet they're in a great relationship with a great woman who has one imperfection. Now your whole post looks like someone has to chase perfection or else there settling, so the framing is everything is settling and that's weakness and therefore it's wrong. Do you "deserve a Lamborghini?" the answer: The question is a shallow value projection. Needing Perfection is the pathology. Because these are children's games. If you're in a great relationship and still not happy it's because you have to grow up. And there's nothing wrong with needing to grow up and if that growing up means you have to leave the relationship to experience life then that's what you got to do.
  5. Watch on youtube so it loops. Loop: https://youtube.com/shorts/ogPVcIeE8a0?si=UHXN0A2q9ir5Y80X
  6. I know it's almost childish but I have a fear of revealing my best business ideas or dream business that I'm currently actively working on, in fear of it being stolen lol. I have the fear of not releasing it until it's perfect or that I've built a substantial way of promoting it so that I'm first to Market. I don't know if this is rational There's a lot of wisdom going around that you shouldn't reinvent the wheel with unique Products, just take products that already exist that have been battle tested and copy them. But this bores me out of my mind and most of it isn't aligned with my highest vision.
  7. @Leo Gura this page has no usable text or metadata for the quote. https://www.actualized.org/insights/profound-quotes-111 This makes it impossible to search quotes as they are in image format.
  8. Your mother has to transfer all of the funds to a different bank account to secure everything and not give him access.
  9. @Natasha Tori Maru the only alternative to the "yes" answer: you never observe a necessary connection between two events, you just see one thing, then another (ball moves, window breaks), and your mind supplies the "cause." So causation is just a habit of associating things. but thats just one metaphysics out of any number you can imagine. so the question is how to know what metaphysics is true? Will any experiment tell me what is true? Can observation and intuition tell me what is true or is that a self-deception? Can i know what is true by rational thought and logic, is it reliable? ... epistemology 🌈
  10. To test the hypothesis, go and find that intellectual woman that you think you're going to find. She's not going to be on Tinder, she won't be on any dating app. Do the work and find that woman.
  11. @Husseinisdoingfine loool basicly the ESTP, and they're very successful at business. Action over planning.
  12. phenomenology of conformity is 99% of the confusion in this thread.
  13. What he found funny was something his group thinks as obviously true = conformity. Example: a christian connects the dots for the first time and realizes that athiest: "have no basis for morality without God", connecting dots are often events that are funny "OMG! haha", but what that insight is can be group think. you were not wrong. just didnt point to what the truth is anchored to. his truth is anchored to a unexamined internalized structure = group think.
  14. I think this question flattens the felt experience with conforming. The wine connoisseur, is it that he knows that it's a prestigious expensive, rare bottle and that's the only reason he enjoys it? or does he enjoy it without any ideology? Will a Christian stop enjoying prayer if their beliefs are removed? A Christian can feel Nostalgia every time they pray as it reminds them of a past memory. <- feeling anchored to his own history (not conformity). A Christian can feel fearful when they're praying because they don't want to be punished for wrong thoughts. <- feeling anchored to an internalized structure (absorbed rule/story). (conformity) A Christian can feel good that they're praying because it makes them respectable in the eyes of others. <- feeling anchored to the social group. (conformity) A Christian can feel peaceful when praying because they enjoy having a connection with God. <- feeling anchored to the felt experience of contact with god. (not conformity) Their feelings are sometimes conformist sometimes not. Praying is a conformist act when the desire to do it comes for the inwards absorbed system, but during prayer the experience can be authentic, like having nostalgia because the feeling is anchored to his own history. The feeling of contact to god is real (authentic, anchored to present experience). The interpretation -> "this is specifically the God my church describes" is conformist. The hippie feels vinyl is best because the feeling is anchored to fitting into vintage culture. (conformity). in practice he has 5-6 feelings about vinyl simultaneously all anchored differently.
  15. 😂 yes it's literally pigs blood jellofied. With a little bit of onions and seasoning it's honestly addictive. But nowadays I just buy a liter of pig's blood, boil it for 10 minutes, and drink 🧛 technically that's still vegan in the vampire culture
  16. All of nostalgia falls into this category, why play on a game boy when we can use a emulator? MP3 is practically superior to vinyl, but basing the value on practicality is only one dimension. Even when there's no sound quality difference, Both are different experiences, so the value is in the experience. Phenomenal state, what's valuable is the feel, the qualia of the vinyl experience. The warmth, the ritual-feeling. This is hedonic, value = quality of conscious state. What's valuable is the quality of the lived experience itself, not the external output. 3rd dimension, the vynal is art, the mp3 is not.
  17. Check to see if there's any trades you can do, I heard Plumbing makes a lot of money
  18. Fascism is fascinating Empowering people to give up their power 😂😂
  19. Not for people who lack critical thinking, a INTP gets less value from chess then other types I've been in the chess scene for a while and the critique I have is no one is integrating self-development with chess what they're doing is they're making chess videos about Chess content and how to think and play chess but not about the person who is playing This is the Trap of rationalism The whole meta level is ignored and so the content is super repetitive There could be a chess video where the main content has nothing to do with chess, it could be entirely on metaphysics and how to play chess from different metaphysical perspectives, or every possible aspect of life and how it relates to chess They're stuck in rationalism which focuses on calculation and not how to develop creativity and intuition You can make infinite videos explaining how to be creative in chess, it's the most important type of video that can be made and it's just every possible way of how to internalize high quality questions to be creative instead they're focusing on pattern recognition and logic Magnus Carlsen every time he speaks I'm tortured with the zero capacity for him to explain how his own mind works. Magnus Carlsen has no idea how his mind works. And that's the core of Chess right now. All of actualized.org can be taught through the lens of chess as a teaching vehicle. Gaming just by integrating AI into all the NPCs is going to be huge leap forward for social skill development. I think if we had games with full AI social integration as kids we might of developed alot of does skills. Image GTA with a Dating mission lmao, "rizz up the waiter", so you walk in and her difficulty is like a 7/10 it might take hours of trail and error. The problem is the developers are going to make it to easy and not accurate to real life. 😭 Image a GTA mission, make people laugh at the comedy club, so your a stand up comedian and have to come up with good jokes. Training the skill of humor, jokes and play. If it models the real world well youll have to actually develop humor by thinking and contemplating. Basically every game becomes a contemplation game. Dating sims are already exploding right now, with AI as the pick up female opponent, but they suck as of now.
  20. Forget that im doing Anti-looksmaxxing. Look so bad it goes full circle and its attractive again. Its like picking up woman on halloween
  21. It depends on how the drug is affecting you, I get a really strong body high from mushrooms, it's so enjoyable to be in my own body that it's like every breath is so good I just want to sit there and breathe. So for most people they might not have this relationship with a drug for whatever genetic reason. Marijuana gives me extreme problems, anxiety, psychedelic past life experiences, I'm reliving memories from the first month I was born. lol So it's whatever works best for your body to give you that good vibe. And I'd focus on the ones that give you that body high and not a mental High. Also I'm not going on the date high on a five grand mushroom trip, we're talking half a gram or a micro dose. lol
  22. lmao this guy. As a joke a friend of mine put some of the most decrepit picture we had of me on tinder for men dating only. It exploded got 50 messages the first hour, the images were of me looking homeless and crazy, wearing bagels on my head and socks on my hands. One of the messages was young university professor, we asked "why did you swipe right?" and he responded "because i see a fun guy with a great sense of humor" The men on men dating domain is nothing like the woman scene. does same pictures got 0 matchs on the woman only section.
