Thought Art

Star light shine Sun of mine Walking through the Ancient empty Forest with you…. Soon we will All return… Be together again… Ahahhhhh!! ohhhh!

Making a journal just for sharing creations. This will give me a place to just share shit I make. No more will I stress over my art and I’ll just create more freely.

A lot of the positive feelings I associated with weed were just myself.

Neil Breen is releasing all the files and supporting documents.

@Carl-Richard You are likely right about not just relying on the studies. Philosophy based training. While, using the science as a field of probabilities. Then, you yourself become the experiment n=1, and the scientist. I used ChatGPT as well after this and it helped me spell out what top body lifters use: They use a combination of: 1. Science 2. Coach Experience 3. Athlete Intuition 4. Technology 5. Practice Refinement. Interesting stuff!

I think science based lifting makes sense…. Top athletes use science in their training which is why they outperform people from 100 years ago. It’s funny because pills have the same problem with weight lifting. Science done to represent populations rarely work on individuals which is why doctors often struggle to get medications “scientifically proven to work on populations” to work on an individual. I would also suggest it is possible that pills do offer far more complexity than lifting weights. Each pill is a unique chemical compound which can be extremely hard to measure how it effects the human body and especially when people are taking a mixture of medications….. People lifting weights is largely the same process for everyone. People may have different recovery times and stuff, and each body may react somewhat uniquely but it’s not the same level of adding a unique compound to the body. That being said, science based lifting does make sense. It just has to be done intelligently, and allow for direct experience of working with an individual to adjust and make personalized fixes. It’s unrealistic to take scientific studies of soccer moms when looking at highly motivated weight lifters and that makes sense. But, are there not studies in your chosen population group that you can study? And not all science is simply controlled trials… some science is looking at things like cellular metabolism, nutrition, etc…. This backlash against science in lifting is dumb. Is it conformity? I think your overall premise of philosophy based lifting is interesting. But, I also bet that science is being used in your decision makings. Coaches who train professional athletes to be the best in the world have a strong understanding of sport science. That is how they create consistent results in their field. So, I’m open to criticism of science based lifting but I do not think it would hold up as a complete move away from science based lifting. My sister works in sports nutrition and she studies sport nutrition science very deeply. It’s obvious to her that through her scientific education individuals have unique nutrition and training needs. That’s what the science shows. They don’t just rely on population studies alone. There is also data collected from individuals….

Leo, I am among the 0.4% of your viewers according to my YouTube 2025 reflection thing. Flex. 💪 Big brain big brain

As soon as someone lies about being an Alien and a reincarnated Yogi…. Why am I wasting my time? I did forgive Leo for his turning into an alien thing. But, I knew him long before and yeah. I am aware of noise to signal ratios and people can make mistakes. Teal just not someone I resonate with and I question her intellectual integrity. I’m open to changing my mind but not interested right now. Like, there is a list of bullshitters: Bashar, Infinite Waters, and I think Teal is largely on there too.

@Leo Gura Yeah…. I guess I’m just through the stage where I listened to people like her and infinite waters, and you, and Jordan Peterson and everything else I could get my hands on as I tried to make sense of things. Your work, though flawed is the best I could find for video teachers. It’s probably the best. I’ve since found many more great teachers as well. I don’t need Swan and her BS. Now, I have my teachers and things i am focusing on. Have to say no to things. Waiting for ur next video, but focused on studying Alex Hormozi books and applying to my coaching offer… and investing in my next few certifications….

Spend hours sorting through her bullshit? Fuck that

My main focus is studying to work on my coaching offer but I enjoy working on this in the evening a bit

Crazy how some simple changes to the synth make the demo much better. The song feels much better to me… just keeping the synth more simple for the first minute and a half lets it grow more naturally. The real recording will be tighter, I’ll be vocally warmed up and not whispering. I will record it again later this month but it’s time to work on another demo

In Junior high our principle made it against the rules to say retarded so we called things “Ridiculous” which I thought was funny.

The madness of ishowspeeds fans is conformity I think.

Leo’s is talking about conformity in a specific broad context…. Conformity…. Going along with political opinions of Fox, or your family and friends.

@Leo Gura Patience.

@Ponder Léo loves debates

A form of conformity I fall into is given music with more listens more value. For example if I see a song has 1bill streams and one with out 500million I tend to bias the one with more streams as better.

@Miguel1 There is a lot to learn.

Man, this is hard. Being conscious and intelligent is hard. I always find gaps in my thinking and I others and it’s just so hard.

Shitty OP1 practice demo In a little bored with the song but it’s fun to practice adding layers. Demo sucks, might move on to new song. Shitty cringy demo but… I get joy from creating and sharing my process.

@Leo Gura Okay. And as we explore this these distinctions can create tripping and confusion. Don’t expect instant insight and grasping of your points… It was unclear exactly the framing of your recent post. To me at least…. It’s not my responsibility to just get what you mean.

@Leo Gura We can contemplate conformity more but you can also admit their is layers to this. And, you said there was no evidence for these things in the green health post, did you not? We ask these questions because in the space of conformity as you provide example with commentary we need to make a distinction between what exactly the kind of conformity that is happening. It was unclear if you were for example labelling Wim Hoff conformity but also debunking its legitimacy by how you worded this recent blog post. That’s partly on you. A tied pod is one thing. A health trend is another. Pretty much every diet trend is a form of conformity is a good example. Perhaps there is lower and higher levels of conformity. Likely true at different levels of education and ego development. It seems apparent to me there are kinds of conformity, and things that can be conformity but aren’t always depending on the consciousness brought in. Enough for me today. Thanks for speaking with me a lot the last little bit. Stay well Leo. …. I would say conformity is a form of monkey see monkey do. It’s forming a social identity, or a habit or behaviour through osmosis of one’s culture. It is a survival mechanism that is largely unconscious. It is a form of heuristic for survival in a complex reality. It is a form of collective ego. Conformity is when someone identifies with, does, says, acts, etc in a mechanistic way through osmosis influence of their culture…. It’s a form of fitting in, being current, a limited form of truth seeking or defending. Okay, that’s my rough personal definition.

@Leo Gura Good example. It was ONE time okay? Jk 67
