Hahahaha you thought he wanted Knowledge Hoarder banned on some side tangent? That's probably his alt account

8 minutes ago, Someone here said:I think the film makers most certainly did not intend to hint at what i said, although too many similarities for it to be a coincidence.
Philosophers have always been contemplating such things, even if they didn't specifically have psychedelics in mind. They could see that our definitions of "real" are a bit flimsy and arbitrary, and that basically cuts to the root of spirituality.

Well just from the thumbnail alone I can tell this will be a very thoughtful and insightful critique
Edit: I just looked through the rest of his videos hahahahahahaha

I related with Cypher for a bit. Basically the personification of "ego backlash" or "ignorance is bliss". He wanted to wipe his memory so he could go back to living in the Matrix, cause he hated knowing the truth and living in the real reality. He regretted taking the red pill.

Whether you look crazy or not, that depends on the person you tell it to, and how much they understand you.
Is it normal? I think that depends on the degree to which you think about it. I have thought about it as a possibility, and the results that come after it, but I have never seriously thought about executing it or planning it out. I've only ever thought of it as a thought experiment. (FYI, "normal" here means how many people on average think about it.)
For me personally, warm showers and walks help me get out of my head when it comes to this stuff. Especially showers. You can feel an immediate increase in awareness and consciousness after coming out of the shower, it makes you much more present and it washes away all the different thoughts you've accumulated throughout the day. Showers are basically effortless meditation sessions, the sensation of water really pulls you into the present moment, away from your thoughts and fantasies.

Yeah, if you look carefully, the standard by which you judge yourself is no different than the standard you judge other people with

I have a hair gel with this ingredient, Lithium Magnesium Sodium Silicate. Does anyone know anything about it? My concern is the lithium part. In general, should ingredients like this just be avoided? Is this similar to aluminum found in deodorants?

It's true that any music or thing I like will make me feel love, but I think this "loving introspection into a true nature" is a very specific thing you're pointing to, and I think I kind of get what you mean. You might be talking about music that sort of makes you introspect over your life and experiences, with a more loving recontextualization around it. I think the key to this is music that makes you feel contemplative/nostalgic/loving. I could listen to some super fast hyperactive electronic music, which is great (for me personally), but that won't make me reminisce and look at life and contemplate what I've been through.
So I think the key is making the music invoke contemplative emotions, that is, emotions that make you more contemplative or reflective on your experiences. Nostalgia is definitely an emotion that fills this criteria.
Anyways, enough crazy rambling from me, here are a few examples I can personally think of:

When I saw the notification saying Leo commented here, I thought he finally caved in

Well, it's not the easiest thing to wrap my head around, but I think that's kind of inherent to these readings. I do appreciate the personal insights and descriptions you put in there though, it makes understanding it much easier for sure.

10 minutes ago, xAkachan said:-Your personality type (I'd like to know the way you behave and communicate)
From the tests I've taken, I seem to be an INTP. I can get stuck in my head and overthink a lot, though I try not to. I also try to be very open-minded and non-judgmental. I also prioritize being as accurate and holistic as possible.
10 minutes ago, xAkachan said:-Physical Appearance (Not necessary! No photo either! I'd just like to be able to visualize who I'm reading)
Black hair, short goatee. People say I have a serious and stern look all the time, although I would say I am actually the opposite in terms of personality.
10 minutes ago, xAkachan said:-What you'd like me to do a reading on! I can do love, future events (like game turnouts for people who play sports), luck, or your energy status (like how clear minded you are)
What should I be working on right now? Am I making the right decisions? How do I make it so the future I want becomes a reality?
Oh yeah, and welcome to the forum

you don’t want to do this.
I had a friend who punched the corpse of another friend of mine over a personal issue and it did not help matters at all.
Yeah that doesn't seem like a sustainable solution to me either

12 minutes ago, Raze said:After no fap you can lose your libido in what’s called a flat line, it’s temporary and a good sign
How temporary? I can't tell if I have fully recovered or not tbh, I'm not sure how I would even be able to tell, although it has been about a year and it has definitely improved over time. I suspect that I'm still not as sensitive as I used to be, but like I said, hard to tell if I'm imagining that or not, it's been so long. No-fap in general involves lots of fluctuations with libido.

When I go on no-fap my libido gets very high but I climax quicker
Funny looking back at this post now when the exact same thing has happened to me now after no-fap, hahaha. Character development. Would be interesting to know how much OP has improved but they probably don't even use the forum anymore.

You could also compare to something like maple syrup or agave syrup.
Or just try cheap honey with pollen filtered out, see if there is a difference

Probably, dreams are hard to decipher IME though

I've experienced something similar, dreams can create indescribable emotions and weird states of mind. I hung onto that emotion for the rest of the day simply because of how interesting it felt.

might be an allergic reaction to the pollen or something

By Google's first definition, "from outside the Earth or this atmosphere", then yes.
But, if you're talking from within this physical dimension or throughout space, then I can't say for sure if they exist or not.
Should be a neutral option somewhere. I do think it's probable though. "Definitely" and "Yes, but at the microorganism level" are kinda like the same answer.

I don't think it's possible for it to happen purely through logical soundness. Logic that questions their beliefs is scary to them. It seems like they prioritize emotions, or the position of the person they are speaking to, more than how sound the logic is. For example, a blue person will probably be much more likely to change their mind if some priest or pastor told them to think differently about their religion rather than someone who isn't related to the church. That's just how it seems to be from my experience.
They need something radical that affects their emotions on a big level, or a talk from someone in a position they respect, or a combination of both. Otherwise they really do seem like robots that can't change at all.

22 minutes ago, Husseinisdoingfine said:For example, someone is unsuccessful with women and money, so they being to devalue the two by claiming sexuality is impure and money is greed.
Yeah, this happens all the time, but it doesn't really have much to do with being spiritual or moral, it's actually just jealousy. Morality and spirituality is just a disguise the jealousy takes on. It's a coping mechanism. Being spiritual is way cooler than being jealous, right? Calling it "moral" and "spiritual" is just a way to hide the jealousy, and the ego doesn't like feeling jealous, it would rather feel saintly, so it will use those concepts to its advantage.
This reminds me of the fable with the fox and the grapes, after the fox is unable to attain the grapes, it just says "they were probably sour anyways" and leaves it at that to make itself feel better about the fact that the grapes can't be obtained.

On 5/24/2022 at 4:15 AM, Max Gross said:And fellas please, I will be as bold as to say that you can spare the lengthy explanation of what Deja-vu is as I know a quick search of the forum will give you that .
Interesting caveat for someone who is apparently interested in Deja Vu
1 hour ago, Max Gross said:I did realized recently that because it's happening quite frequently to me that I just notice it, make a remark like: "oh, nice" and continue to do what I was doing while the deja-vu is happening in the background. However, I do still find it a nice "add-on" to life. I wonder what lessons we still have to learn from deja-vu, beyond that have been already discussed and hypothesize.
My personal theory is that it might be related to dreams, in the sense that our dreams can sometimes predict the future, and Deja Vu might actually just be us remembering dreams we had that predicted the future. The situation feels familiar cause we actually went through it in our dreams before. That's what it seemed like to me when I inspected it. If not a dream, it feels like a memory of the future, wherever it came from I'm not sure, but it feels like it was from a dream I had or something.
Other than that I don't see any lessons. Just seems to be a supernatural phenomenon, maybe.

Maybe try holding a magnet to the stainless steel, if his magnet test is sound.
He does say at the top "Stainless steel that magnets won't stick to has nickel in it, stainless that will hold a magnet does not have much nickel if any"
