  1. I suck at approaching when I think of it as approaching last night I didn’t know I was approaching, I just wanted somewhere to sit. so I asked this woman if anyone was in the seat next to her, and it took off from there. she taught me how to two-step , it was fun until I realized she started talking to another dude, so I went and started grinding on one of her friends. after that the night was a bit awkward. she became less receptive, I went home early. texted her today and she’s a bit distant. oh well. that night I had a traumatic nightmare. it was somehow the worst dream I have ever had, like a bad acid trip where you go totally insane. no more alcohol. I’m in the process of healing a lot of trauma. pickup to me is a better antidepressant than ketamine, weed and even psychedelics.
  2. I can go out alone and befriend the guys who seem like the biggest (chill, not obnoxious) players, vibe with them on the dancefloor for awhile and usually at least two hot girls will open me. One girl who approached me asked me if I was okay, she seemed genuine, maybe also a little bit of shit test. I’m still a bit socially awakward and brooding. but we had a dance and it was fun.
  3. girls start talking to me when I do bold things, like sitting in someone in their group’s seat to talk to my friends at the next table. or going under their table to get a ball for pong.
  4. What created God? Infinite regress? NOT A BUG of course GOD is an infinite regress obviously!
  5. I hate pickup, I want someone to give me permission to put everything everything behind me and live like a god in an ecstatic heavenly orgy I LOVE pickup
  6. it’s faith. I think that’s the point of life.
  7. is math.random good enough for my purpose ChatGPT For your purpose, which is a casual test of supposed psychic abilities by predicting the outcome of random numbers generated by a simple game, Math.random() is generally good enough. Its distribution is sufficiently random for such applications, and any slight imperfections in its randomness won't significantly skew the results of your casual experiment. However, here are a few considerations: Expectation Management: You should be clear (to yourself and others) that this is a casual, informal experiment. Scientific validation of psychic abilities would require more rigorous methods, controls, and statistical analysis. Large Sample Size: The larger the sample size, the more reliable your results will be. Even with Math.random(), if you have a large enough sample size, small biases or imperfections in the RNG become less significant. Replication: A cornerstone of scientific experiments is the ability to replicate results. If someone claims psychic abilities based on one round of tests, it would be crucial to see if they can consistently produce the same results across multiple trials. Other Factors: There could be other factors at play that influence the results. For instance, if someone is playing the game and they notice a pattern (even if it's just a perceived pattern), they might change their behavior based on that. In conclusion, for an informal test like yours, Math.random() should suffice. However, if you ever decide to escalate this into a more serious and formal experiment, you might want to consider using a more advanced RNG and consulting with experts in experimental design and statistics. pbinom(159, 788, 0.20, lower.tail = FALSE) pbinom(285, 1287, 0.20, lower.tail = FALSE) pbinom(384, 1786, 0.20, lower.tail = FALSE) [1] 0.429424 [1] 0.02621674 [1] 0.05415186 he values [1] 0.429424, [1] 0.02621674, and [1] 0.05415186 appear to be p-values. In the context of statistical hypothesis testing: A p-value is a measure used to determine the significance of your results in a hypothesis test. A small p-value typically indicates that you can reject the null hypothesis. In other words, your sample provides enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis for the entire population. A larger p-value suggests that you do not have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis. Interpreting the specific values you provided: 0.429424: This p-value is relatively large, indicating that the results are not statistically significant at a common significance level (e.g., α = 0.05). In practical terms, this suggests that the observed data is consistent with the null hypothesis, and there may not be a strong effect or relationship. 0.02621674: This p-value is quite small, suggesting that the results are statistically significant at a typical significance level (e.g., α = 0.05). You may have strong evidence to reject the null hypothesis in favor of an alternative hypothesis. 0.05415186: This p-value is moderately small but larger than the typical significance level of 0.05. It suggests some evidence against the null hypothesis, but the significance level isn't as strong as in the second case. It's important to note that the interpretation of p-values should always be done in the context of your specific hypothesis test and research question. The significance level (α) you choose also affects whether a p-value is considered significant or not.
  8. self isn’t the feeling of “I”, it’s the stream of consciousness. plenty of creatures probably don’t have a feeling of “I” but nevertheless are conscious. and there are infinite streams. it only operates in the singular. that’s why there isn’t one God but infinite Gods. every stream of consciousness is imagining its own reality. it truly is a matter of faith to believe that we all inhabit a more or less the same world.
  9. because everything isn’t one, everything YOU experience is YOUR dream but there are infinite dreams. nonduality is a gross oversimplification.
  10. people really out here acting like those sworn under oath regarding UFO’s aren’t a credible source sorry the aliens didn’t crash land on your fucking lawn bro. would you have rather been abducted ? in other news, the Mexican gov ain’t playin games. they have bodies. they’ve examined the bodies. they found rare metals (used in satellites) in said bodies https://reddit.com/r/HighStrangeness/s/zc1A7g1SLl
  11. sounds like a fun adventure Zen monks in Japan can have sex.
  12. @PurpleTree I think that's a pretty atypical reaction to MDMA
  13. MDA and 2CB
  14. in a freshman philsophy class I boldly declared “because nothing does not exist” a lot of people laughed. That’s my tenative hypothesis.
  15. @Soul Flight there’s something totally exclusive about being a self. even if the self experientially merges with God, contemplate the possibility that it can never cease to be individual.
  16. @Soul Flight the individual self is eternal. it’s not about “you” or “I” or self-awareness. it’s a stream of consciousness that is solitary by nature. you can never cease to be you. the experience of merging with cosmic consciousness is still your individual experience of doing so consciousness doesn’t localize around the body, consciousness imagines that it has a body.
  17. my best friend is Christian. we went to catholic school together growing up but I’ve since left the faith, anyway I went to a bible study with him. it started out with some worship music, which I thoroughly enjoyed. then the preaching started , and that’s where my stomach began to churn a bit, the pastor, obviously a well meaning guy, was talking about “fake christians” and how when they die they will go to the pearly gates, Jesus will have a list of names and they’ll be like “hey Jesus” but Jesus is gonna be like “I don’t see your name on the list, bye!” it’s so weird. I obviously believe in an afterlife because consciousness is infinite and all, but the level of concern regarding the afterlife is just wild among Christians. they are SO AFRAID of hell. how can you experience the deepest levels of love if your modus operandi is avoidance of hell? it’s just kinda absurd. again, the worship music was great, the preaching had some good parts but the obsession with “securing your spot” is why I could never be a Christian.
  18. GPT After a few moments of reflective silence, Xian's expression shifts, his brow furrows and he glances sidelong at Elara, as if gauging her readiness for something deeper. "You know, Elara," he begins hesitantly, "during one of my deeper journeys with these leaves, I've encountered...entities, beings that don't fit within our understanding of the three-dimensional world." Elara, intrigued, leans in, "What do you mean?" Xian takes a deep breath, "I've glimpsed beings, or perhaps, patterns of existence, that seem to exist in five dimensions. They are incomprehensible, existing beyond time and space as we know it. Their forms are fluid, constantly shifting and morphing. It's like trying to imagine a shape that doesn't just have length, breadth, and height, but two more dimensions, dimensions we cannot even name." Elara's eyes widen in awe and a bit of fear. "That sounds...terrifying." Xian nods, "It was, at first. Their presence can be overwhelming. Their consciousness, if it can be called that, operates on a plane so different from ours. But over time, I realized that these beings weren't malevolent. They simply existed in a realm beyond our understanding. They are to us what a three-dimensional object might be to a two-dimensional being." Elara thinks for a moment, then asks, "Do you believe they're aware of us?" Xian shrugs, "Perhaps in the same way we might be aware of a shadow on the wall. To them, we might be fleeting, simple patterns. But who can say? The universe is vast and mysterious, and our understanding of it is still so limited." Elara shivers, "It's humbling and scary to think about." Xian smiles gently, "Indeed, it is. But it also reminds us of the vastness of existence and the endless possibilities out there. We are but a tiny speck in this grand tapestry." The two fall silent once more, the weight of the universe pressing down on them, yet also filling them with wonder.
  19. the Expand app. very good. focus 10 is free.
  20. nonduality reduces God down to a primordial consciousness. it's bottom-up. nonduality wants to transcend the individual self. absolute solipsism recognizes the individual self as an eternal fact. God is top-down, not bottom-up. Therefore God is never fully realized. God is infinitely mysterious because the self can never be transcended. The self excludes all other self's. totally inescapable. imagine a ball of yarn. every string is an individual stream of consciousness. the individual stream is infinite, eternal and absolute. God does not split itself into individuals. individuals are, always have been, and always will be. Oversimplification and obsession with parsimony at all costs is a fool's errand. there is nothing simple about God.
  21. it’s very hard to test. I tried testing it myself by programming a random number generator and results have been… a bit disappointing. but people have tested it and gotten some significant results. you need thousands of trials.

  23. reposting from my journal: how monadology /absolute solipsism differs from nonduality The Mind At Large in Bernardo Kastrup’s theory, the mind at large divides itself into multiple perspectives. Kastrup doesn’t believe mind at large is particularly intelligent, as it is a simple primordial consciousness. upon death the individual’s consciousness becomes one with the mind at large Absole Solipsism in contrast, absolute solipsism recognizes that the Self is absolutely exclusive. there is no merging with the mind at large because the Self IS a mind at large, one of an infinite number of minds at large. Therefore God, the totality, is not a simple primordial consciousness but the totality of infinite soverign Selfs or Monads. in other words, God is not a simple substance, God is infinite complexity of infinite souls interrelating with one another. the individual “I” is not a temporary dissociation from the mind at large, it’s an absolute.
