[Deconstruction of the masculine myth]

No, you guys are a correct, it also touch females as society shove onto us masculine ideals that are internalized.

Hence the recurrent pattern of female hero with a strong masculine orientation. I suffer from it too.

In some contexts there isn't a choice? Like when Thanos comes to snap away half of existence, we need masculine girls that can kick ass e.g. Black Widow

[Obsessed with Stage Red Cartoons]

Depicting stage red doesn't equal stage red, though. I wouldn't even wanna look at anime/TV shows through a spiral lens, it doesn't feel right to me.

You can actually analyze some of the shows you listed for hours, given their depth and complexity (Monster, Beserk, even AOT.)

[Why Russia is Invading Ukraine - Infinite Waters]

I think the video was fine until the ~10 minute mark.

[Facebook temporarily allowing call for death]

The actual headline: Facebook allows war posts urging violence against Russian invaders

From the article: "As a result of the Russian invasion of Ukraine we have temporarily made allowances for forms of political expression that would normally violate our rules like violent speech such as 'death to the Russian invaders.' We still won't allow credible calls for violence against Russian civilians," a Meta spokesperson said in a statement.

"We are doing this because we have observed that in this specific context, 'Russian soldiers' is being used as a proxy for the Russian military. The Hate Speech policy continues to prohibit attacks on Russians," the email stated.

Maybe it's still the wrong move but I feel this gives one a fuller picture.

[Does Leo fap?]

Certified coomer indeed

[Understanding Russia & Putin]

I’ve seen a lot people criticizing this Professor (Mearsheimer) online on this issue. Is that because people aren’t interested in understanding or is he just wrong? 
 

 

[How headphones ruined my life]

I can relate somewhat (tinnitus). Ear problems can be some of the scariest. 
 

I believe mine was, in part, caused by excessive use of headphones too. 

[How do you accept the unfairness of life?]

I try to apply this philosophy:

All of the things you mentioned aren’t completely out of ones control, but they are to some extent. 
 

Still, it’s easier said than done.

[Integrating calendar, goals, to-do lists in OneNote]

I don’t think it’s possible to integrate your calender in OneNote. And there are simply better apps for managing your to-do lists.

I’ve seen a lot of videos on Notion being a “all in one place” kind of app so that might be what you’re looking for. 

[Is F+ request morally wrong?]

I’d think I won the lottery if I had an attractive girl say that to me. This might be a once in a lifetime opportunity. 
 

Then again, maybe you’re just a very different personality type so you do you. 
 

Edit: Well, I’m just realizing now that I misread the OP. I don’t think it’s immoral though.

I'm just pointing out NATO's hypocrisy. Because they also bombed innocent civilians not long ago.

"NATO's intervention was prompted by Yugoslavia's bloodshed and ethnic cleansing of Albanians, which drove the Albanians into neighbouring countries and had the potential to destabilize the region. Yugoslavia's actions had already provoked condemnation by international organisations and agencies such as the UN, NATO, and various INGOs."

@Dryas do you have any recommendation on source for spiral dynamics?

I mostly know about it through Leo's videos.

Good stuff

[Why is the left so sympathetic to Islam?]

13 minutes ago, Someone here said:

The real conclusion is Islam is partly very evil which is evident by the evil laden verses in the Quran that inspire some Muslims to commit terrible evils and violence which is empirically evident.

Why do they inspire some and not others? The interpretation matters. There exists progressive interpretations.

[Man makes $5/hour and defends capitalism]

I mean, isn't that kind of wise of him in a sense? It's like if someone is super unlucky and dying because of the covid vaccine but still defends it because it is good for the whole.

Not saying that that's what's happening here but maybe its just the thought process of the worker.

[What tool helped you the most in achieving your goals?]

Time blocking. I don't really know how much it actually contributed towards achieving an academic goal of mine, but I imagine it still helped. Structuring your entire day feels good regardless.

Isn’t it wiser to try and understand why that is from a historical and sociological point of view? 

[An example of high integrity (?)]

See the full thread.

The guy is willing to give up his whole career for this. It feels… weirdly respectable.

Hope this doesn’t turn into a debate on vaccine efficacy or vaccine and freedom since that’s not what this is about.
