The problem I'm seeing with giving an estimation of a price here, is that we are making ASSUMPTIONS, which was covered in a video in the past. Notice how we are assuming a price, sometimes a price range, and we don't actually have any data on the exact Jordan Peterson lecture price. We have nothing to base our assumptions on the price, in particular JP lectures, unless someone provides a price he did prior. So, we are assuming. -
@PurpleTree I don't see a problem with you using the internet to practice your socialization, if social situations are that dangerous to you. I've had problems maintaining eye contact, and one way I improved on that is using the internet, and staring at each face I see, making and maintaining eye contact, from sexual to aggressive and other ways of eye contacts, and this type of training improved my socialization a bit. Maybe try out face cams and do some socializing through that. Let yourself be more perfectionistic as well.

@Knowledge Hoarder Technically, throughout human history, we've been always uniting and separating. It's not just only uniting, but separating also plays a role in developments too. I'm not just critiquing you with muh complexity and nuanced systems thinking, but @Space Lizard and other users with blind spots in their moral, cognitive and stage of development, their limited states and life experiences with interactions with different cultures and lack of travels to different parts of the world. That's all I'm pointing out, and personally it's not a critic, I'm pointing out this needs nuance. Also, learn to handle a joke here and there. Jeez. -

Depends on which country, which currency and how well it is marketed. I don't know what the average price in dollars is to attend college/university lectures in general, or in pounds, or in USD, or in rupiah. Don't ask what it might be in bitcoin currency. -
For me, the most important part of being an artist, is improving on what the artist is capable of and can control, and that's mostly the editing process. The more I apply whatever art skills I have, mediums, I improve over time. This is mostly 80% of processing art is. The beginning 20% is intuition from the external world, ie other art works and other sources of inspiration, it's received by GOD, source, universe whatever you want to call it.

@Arcangelo Guilt, shame, and the need to be right. Karma is coming, to those who are extreme and blindly push ideology into our braniums. -

@Evoke Or maybe it's the alarm bells ringing that this delivery of the message is inauthentic slightly. My intuition is that she isn't enlightened. There's too much misalignment with what she is speaking, versus what her body is saying. Doesn't mean the message is wrong, it's just there's not enough integrity between her and what she's saying, to say she's enlightened. -
@PurpleTree Well, it it sounds like you're over thinking social situations. Sometimes, that good to do if you need to be careful of what you say or do in public. It's not like completely let go of thinking about social situations, or how you can be charismatic or manipulate the social situation, because if you do surrender too much too soon you will expose yourself more to danger, and be at risk of public and social ridicule. However, be self aware that you need less over thinking, not to completely ditch thinking. I also have a similar problem, with being perfectionistic in social situations, because I had to.

@PurpleTree I don't see you having a social problem. If you can write and post here in the forum, you can communicate to other people. If you are willing to engage with other users here in the forum, you can willingly go and socialize, which means you can train yourself to be social. There are so mant forests with many different trees, keep going until you find your own society of purple trees.

If this is what you genuinely feel, and you have discovered this about yourself, that's a start and it's good, at least it's closer to your authentic self. Like others have said, exercise and martial arts satisfies the craving to hurt and/or kill in a healthier way. As a career option, joining the military, will depend on many factors, like one's value system, which ideally should be stage blue values like patriotism, nationalism, religion, love and pride of one's nation country, conservatism, conformity, these help a little being in the military because they will put you through a deprograming from being a citizen to being a soldier of the nation. Stage red to orange values are also valuable, at specific situations, but too much of either wouldn't help. You also have to be okey, with changing you cognitive development, from thinking of other people as human beings, to thinking of any men, women, children, at any time your subconscious mind cues you they are carrying a weapon, to think of them as enemies and targets to be neutralized. Check this in yourself that you are ok thinking like this. This also will effect your morality as well, because for the duration of serving the military and being a soldier, your sphere of concern will mostly be for your fellow soldiers, and less for the enemy and people on the other side of your weapon. If you are ok, being in states of consciousness that involve depression, boredom, fear, terror, worry, nervousness, loss, sadness, guilt, frustration, anger, then the military might be an option to consider. However, try going on a hunting trip. Go hunt a dear. That's also a good test to see if you could be a good fit in the army, if you are capable and willing to kill an animal. One more thing, whatever decision you make, make it intentional, and well thought out, well contemplated. Do not join because family and friends and social pressures told you to join, or it looks like a cool way to satisfy one's need for power, or to show off, or because you have a romantic view of the military. @Vivaldo

@universe So when I know I have to do something, write a book or create a comic, that's not an obsession? I don't know why I'm here, 100% yet, but writing stories, drawing comics, and playing games is part of that. I'm not doing this because somebody told me I'm a good writer or drawer, or I need those to survive. I sometimes don't have to, and let myself take a break. On top of constructing stages, fans, libraries containing my future works, but I can also trigger lots of emotions as well. The end is the beginning, and the middle is both. I like the end and the journey. Honestly, you don't actually go to art conventions?

How much of Jorden Peterson's regression due to both his declining health and old age? -
25 + years old, non negotiable, and don't put psychedelics in tap water, very irresponsible.

@vladorion Same thing to you, for being biased. -
@Loba Which part of his paintings suck?

@vladorion The main problem is that you can do that all day, pointing out baises of other positions, hence the whataboutsim of such a thing. -

@Fearless_Bum What does the entity look like? Was it cute? -
Danioover9000 replied to PurpleTree's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
Huh? He's saying he was a PhD/academic/scientist? And this is probably why I won't make my life purpose as some political public speaker, podcaster, YouTube content creator or whichever form of public speaking in the digital world. Many times, with things I write or say, later after reflecting on it, I see it as wrong and ditch whatever I planned to do. -

That's just what Joe Rogan is at the moment. He used to have good takes, but lately he's going off the rails a bit, but I never expected any level of political analysis from a comedian. Maybe the real issue, is for some expecting something smart from Joe Rogan, which puts the problem to the viewer instead. -
@universe Great to know timing isn't a big issue. I mean, It's not like my passion for comics is my only passion. In fact in my life, in the past, I had other hobbies, other interests and passions besides drawing illustrations and doing a comic styles of art. Before my drawing comics passion, there was the passion of IT computing, in order to create my own website, for a few years until I didn't want to. Before my passion for IT computing to build my own website, there was a passion for chess, board games, and video games, because I liked thinking in a big perspective, and liking the game design. Before that, there was a passion for writing stories, because I read a bit more then than now, fiction books and fanfiction. I wanted to be an author myself, and pictured myself signing off books that each of my readers wanted signing off, and giving lectures and talks about my books in front of an audience world wide. So, I was reading and creating stories and learning from writer blogs about their techniques to character developments and plot structures, for about 5 years straight, until my passion calmed down. Before that there was travelling to other countries, learning new things, and lots of day dreaming. Nowadays, I have a vision similar to being a writer, but instead it's about the comics I'm selling. When you say I can't live without, do you mean like an obsession?

@flowboy But how do I know if I'm being a good artist, good illustrator, or good comic writer/artist, when I don't have second knowledge about the relevant fields? And I'm not the only one desiring to be a freelance/indie comic artist, there are others in this field too, so practices and practically speaking, if I don't know what my competitors are up too, how can I output more value than them, when I don't know what they're capable of? Outside the context of this thread, and taking you're logic and intensifying it, it's like you're telling me "Don't listen to what others say about the sink hole. Do what others say can't be done, ie walk across the sink hole without sinking." If I don't know about the market I'm specializing into, the business format and the customer base and their demands, and the poll of information to study and practice from, I'm at a ridiculous disadvantage compared to those who are knowledgeable, have insider knowledge, have more experience and skills trained in much longer and with more effort than me, so in this case learning from secondary knowledge off of multiple perspectives, from people in the know, from clients/customers and what they like in their comics/illustrated works, and the marketing, might be helpful. Having a diversity of learned perspectives and broader knowledge can offset my disadvantages in regards to those who can out technical me, or out experience me in drawing. I do basic self help as well as subconscious training, and positive affirmations and visualization work. My visualization skills are almost matching to waking reality, ie I can see myself be an artist, see, hear and feel what I'm doing, what the tools do, from 1st person perspective to 3rd person perspective. In fact this is also part of my zone of genius, 3d thinking and modeling, which I used a lot to make sense of video games I used to play, and for some comics in figuring out the locations, events, and characters positions.

Why are you guys expecting a comedian to give political analysis on climate change? Most of his podcasts are not structured talks, they are more informal and off the cuff types of talks, so of course in some parts of the talk he says crazy stuff, but because it's organic, he then sometimes says pretty good takes as well. The main problem is the formatting of the way convos go in his podcasts. -

@softlyblossoming When you're mind becomes silent, the answer will be revealed to you. Try dancing without thinking. -
Danioover9000 replied to Inliytened1's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
There are two consistent realisations, the devil and the godhead. Other realizations, including the I am GOD, is much less common for a reason. It's like a fan, what is the key pin head, is the god head, that connects to all parts of the fan, and connects each segment. Where the devil is, is the ability to create further patterns that seperate each node in each segment from each other, and blurs the line that would make your true nature obvious. Why? Because you wanted to live a finite existence originally, so god fooled itself, turning into the devil, and creates multiplex layers of separations, dualities, and boundaries that make you you. Frankly embodying god realization makes living as a finite being a bit difficult. -

This is a duplicate thread, and we're talking about Joe Rogan, it's like 4 threads about him here
