  1. Alternative Title
  2. I don't know.. Neat little game.
  3. I think the answers would have to cater to all stages of development rather than just sound like they'd come from a Tier 2 scientist. A beige, purple, red or even blue person wouldn't even know what to answer based on the question structure at some points. But I like how you manifested this.
  4. I also contemplated why westerners tend to forgive so much devilry of the US, while sharply judging anything Russia. And I think a large factors is that, although the US might've been a nasty boy (nuclear bombs, Vietnam, middle east ect.) we (westerners) are whitewashed and impressed by: 1. Entertainment (Youtube, Instagram, Facebook, Video Games, Pornhub, Hollywood) 2. Celebrities, Idols, Rolemodels, Coaches, Gurus, Podcasters, TV-Shows, Presidential Drama ect. 3. Rockets, Military, Dollar Hegemony, Nuclear Power 3. Smartphones, Computers, AI, Leading Softwares 4. Modern Medicine, Airplanes, GPS, Vaccines, Cameras, CRISPR, Microwave 5. Comedy, News, Celeb Drama et cetera.. Meanwhile I can't think of comparable shiny inventions from Russia. Surely there are many, but you don't hear from them. You just hear of their devil on the political level. So of course the western perspective is massively skewed..
  5. I mean obviously the day to day life of people are vastly different. Imagine if Russians behaved like the police cam suspects. And I'm not sure of the US would send a million troops into death for some 20% of Canada. US people would oppose like nothing good. In Russia its a welcoming opportunity to make some Rubles for the young men. Maybe they are similar on a structural level, view from high above. But everything relative seems strikingly different.
  6. That. How can I learn more about self-deception, mind games, corruption, survival .. ? Everything from you in that regard on YouTube is good, but not really on your blog post level or at the level of your forum takes. Is there any book or technique that escalated your sense in that regard?
  7. This is diabolical levels of stupidity. 1. impersonating a CIA agent 2. stealing money from friend, who filmed you doing so. 3. returning back to that friend. That same evening. While speeding. 4. acting as if you were to save someone overdosing. You can't make this shit up..
  8. I've done this so many times. I'm a hobby painter and professional graphic designer. So yeah, I stand by my claim. Give me 45 minutes and a normal 6 year old, and we be printin' canvases like this.
  9. ..just because it does that to you, doesn't mean a 6 year old or a bad AI couldn't do that as well. And this puts people off. Most like to imagine skill behind art and work. But if thats not important to you, thats fine I guess.
  10. If I showed you the technique for such art, you would be stunned how easy that is. Trust me. With a little preparation you can do a canvas like this in 15 minutes.
  11. Good point. Never had this thought so distinctly, but it makes total sense right now.
  12. If Leo is ever going to open a Bufo Alvarius retreat center its gonna be called "Skull Rape To Infinite - Residence".
  13. Hey guys, I've been through a truck load of crises' in the past 14 months. Truck load is the keyword here, since I got rolled over by a construction truck on an island road in Thailand. And after having to lay in hospital beds for a good 6 months (around 30 full anaesthetic surgeries) I developed a deep mental and physical addiction to all those hospital narcotics. Mainly fentanyl and good ol' morphine. Which administered intravenously melts away all your physical and psychological trauma like a beam of Gods love. Only for 20 minutes though, then your suffering continues. Anyhow, my intention with this post is to share some insights and advice on how to tackle addiction. Since I'm on a really good path to free myself from the opioids. Just some minor medication left till I'm completely addiction free. Alright here are my main learnings: 1. Be honest about that the drugs are not the problem. In fact they are the solution to some underlying problem Of course they are a severely health compromising solution, but they are a solution nonetheless. So whats the actual problems that needs to be faced, in order to render the drugs useless? In my case, it was physical pain and later nihilism and depression. Funnily enough morphine was used as an anti-depressant around the WW2 era. So having that cleared out I managed to tackle the depression problems with better medical solution than just taking more opioids. Additionally my physical pain lessened with all the surgeries, helping me with that problem as well. 2. The opposite of addiction is not sobriety. Its social connection and or following a meaningful activity. Have you ever wondered why addicts are usually alone and or unemployed? And have you also wondered why people, with a clear life purpose and are integrated in a supportive social structure never seem really to like drugs? Exactly. To those people the side effects of drugs make them seem like a stupid idea. But not to those people, who are devoid of meaning and alone. Being alone and purposeless is the number one driving factor for drug-use motivation. Im sure you notice this dynamic in yourself right? When do you usually pick up your phone? When are you prone to numb yourself with whatever medium or substance that suits you the most? Maybe its food, social media, porn.. This dynamics gives you a little taste in how any medium of addiction is really a solution to loneliness or nihilism. In honouring this dynamic, you already acknowledged the deeper problem of your addiction. In my case, I noticed that working physically with others around a garden, with animals or homestead project fixed my compulsory thought pattern around drug-use. Of course the withdrawal symptoms are still there, but they are way less, compared to my time living in an apartment being alone most of the time. Nature seems to play a component here as well. Big game changer. 3. Cold turkey does not work. - If 1. and 2. aren't resolved, you can never leave yourself without the drug. Focus on those first and then you can wean off slowly. The slower the better. In my case, I took me about 8 months to come from a high IV-opioid dose to a low-moderate opioid dose. Every attempt to short cut this process lead to even stronger backlashes into the addiction. Cold turkeying will only make it worse. You can't really win anything with that strategy. Alright thats it. feel free to message me if you struggle with some kind of serious addiction. Maybe there is something I can help you with there.
  14. Tragic. Maybe there is some consciousness in him left to feel what he wants to numb out with the alcohol. Drugs are just a tool to deal with something negative. Whatever it is, if it stays, the drugs stay too.
  15. Yes, almost everything. I even connected with a man via Instagram who shot pictures of the scene, which assured my memory. I somehow thought, that extreme pain and blood loss leads to unconsciousness after some moments. But that did not happen. I felt every bit of pain there was.
  16. Somewhat unrelated, but: What would be a reason to die? Is there a set of circumstances that would seem reasonable for suicide in your world view? And adjacent to that, I’d like to know how you reconciled yourself with all your physical health issues. Because you seem to do better now. I could listen to a lecture video about that topic.
  17. That’s my exactly my point. I did encounter 2-3 aliens stopping by from one of their route through atmosphere. But only while I took psychedelics. That’s also one of the experiences, which I wonder to have in the non-psychedelic human realm. Same goes for unconditional love, complete clarity of one’s life purpose and different deep kinds of insight. is it just exclusive for psychedelic experience or one day just part of normal everyday life.
