  1. There's a video of him proudly admitting how badly he scammed men. I can't find the full clip but here's some annoying YT news bro covering the gist of it. I timestamped it to the main part where Tate is talking. Whenever I see people defend Tate, this is my go to clip to show them.
  2. I agree. But it's better to suffer for a little bit for being picky than to end up with someone you're not really attracted to. It's a balancing act I suppose. From a guy's perspective, women being picky can make us feel insecure and unworthy. So we often have a desire to criticise women for being too picky. But from a woman's POV, being picky is likely pretty healthy.
  3. I don't know how it looks suspicious really, it's just true. There are many men who suffer greatly because they are starved of sex. I know plenty and I'm sure you do too.
  4. People can be as picky as they want
  5. I don't think you actually read what I wrote, I'm not supporting prostitution and I said I wouldn't ever use one. My point was that comparing the suffering of two highly troubled groups where no single person has ever belonged to both is very very difficult. I have no idea where you are getting self-destructive fantasies from in my post. If anything it sounds more like you have issues that you are projecting here because you wildly misinterpreted what I wrote. And no I'm not an incel
  6. You just sound really bitter here mate Sex is absolutely a need for the majority of people. The people who go a lifetime without sex are either miserable, or very exceptional.
  7. Depends. You don't know how strong the male drive for sex is, nor what a lack of sex can make a man feel, and neither of us (I'm guessing) know how the average prostitute suffers. Suffering is very a hard thing to quantify. Imagine an unattractive guy with zero confidence who is 30, a virgin, and has never been loved by anyone; I could easily see that person suffering just as much as an average prostitute, maybe more. To back that up; there is a statistic that virgin men in their late teens and 20s are an exceptionally high suicide risk, on the order of 4x more likely than women or non-virgin men. To be clear I think prostitution is generally bad in most cases and I would never use one, although there are likely women who get into it and enjoy it. Think sugar daddy type relationships. There are no men who enjoy being a 30 year old unloved virgin. My point is that comparing suffering of two groups like this can be hard, since no one has experienced both situations.
  8. It's probably where you are doing it. Try talking to girls in places where being sociable is more normal, if you are getting girls threatening to call the police in those places then there is something really wrong. Common pickup advice can make it seem like jumping straight to daygame (approaching in malls and streets during the day) is the best option for guys who suck with girls, when really this is quite an advanced thing and what you need to work on are your basic social skills. Once you can talk to girls in naturally sociable places then you can move on to doing it in places where it is less socially acceptable and you need more confidence/charm to pull it off.
  9. No, but I'm a developer at an online marketing + SEO company
  10. I didn't say it was irrelevant, I said it was low priority to learn yourself. I'm pretty sure most people without the language skill to write it themselves just pay others to write it for them. A good product, a well-designed UI, a visually appealing sales site, and a well selected target demographic are much more important to have and also more difficult. The copy kind of comes naturally if you have these things. There's a reason get-rich-quick systems like Tate's hustler university recommend copywriting to people which is that pretty much anyone who speaks decent English and isn't an idiot can do it to at least an average level. The people who prioritise sales copy above everything else are usually trying to sell something shitty. If you have a good product, the copy literally just concisely describes what problem your product solves and for who, and then you're done. The hardest part is making sure your copy gets identified by Google as something people are searching for. But again there are more important things for SEO like backlinks.
  11. No, it doesn't mean you're gay. I'm the same. You can see objectively handsome dudes and acknowledge that they are good looking without getting an erection from looking at them or wanting their dick in your mouth. The idea of a dick in my mouth or anywhere else near me is gross but I can still appreciate aesthetically good looking guys.
  12. Interestingly, giving terminal patients psilopsybin seemed to remove their fear of death.
  13. First 30 mins: Not much, lie in bed, put on some music, watch some YouTube 30 mins - 1.5 hours: Lie in bed or couch and enjoy the ride, don't really do anything, just relax, sit there and experience whatever comes up 1.5 hours - 2.5 hours: Same but trip fucking balls, usually peak around this time 2.5 hours - 4 hours: More active, walk around my place a little bit, experience different sensations, look in the mirror, meditate, try to control my mind and make it do cool things with the enhanced flexibility, focus on any unique states of mind I obtain, writing down insights 4 hours - 8 hours: Start coming down, but still definitely tripping, lying down doing nothing and enjoying the euphoria, more meditation, more writing 8 hours - 14 hours: Watch a movie or TV series until I can sleep
  14. I never understood the emphasis given to copywriting anyway. It seems like one of the lowest priority things to learn for starting a good business. If you're bad at it, it's been pretty common to pay someone small amounts of money to write copy for ages anyway, AI just lets you do that for free and a little bit of effort. Marketing is not something AI can really do that well yet. The best marketing is super creative and taps into the human psyche in new and unique ways, AI can't really do that.
  15. That extraction method is similar enough to the one most common one; lime juice for 24-48hr + filter. That leaves plenty of gunk that will give you nausea in there no matter how well you filter or how long you leave it. The filter will let the same things past no matter how long you leave it as well. I had a chemist friend who said that properly extracting and isolating the LSA is basically not something the average person can do at home without access to a bunch of chemicals and lab equipment. Personally the taste and nausea of the woodrose seeds was so bad that the taste alone now physically makes me sick. The trips I've had then with proper LSD blow it out of the water as well.
  16. I agree with you. I think it is a difficult issue. There is a grey area between spammy low quality approaches that annoy and creep girls out and decent ones. But for me, it's just not worth the effort to go out and do daygame when I find I get decent results in nightgame. I've never had any girl be rude or particularly awkward around me at night as far as I can remember. I've definitely had girls give super closed off awkward vibes during the day and a few rude as well. Overall it just feels inauthentic and shameful to me when I do it. No, absolutely improve your skills with girls. I just do that at places that are more conducive to socialising than a high street. The logic is not the same. Tinder is mostly very low effort, low investment if you already have a good life and are at least moderately good looking. Day game is high investment very high effort. As a general rule, low investment is usually much less creepy than high investment.
  17. Because a high value, attractive guy should not need to go out and do spammy daygame. Their lifestyle would bring them in contact with women far more naturally and in a way that is much less forced. So if you need to go and approach 20 girls on your local high street to try and get laid, it's an indicator to women that there's something weird about you. Even if there isn't, that's the impression given off; creepy and strange.
  18. Only a specific kind of daygame. Occasionally talking to girls you see during the day isn't bad. That's good. I do that. That's still daygame I guess. It's just the type where you leave your house specifically to talk to lots of girls that I think is often very creepy. Guys do make it not creepy and get laid from it, but they almost always learn to convince the girl that she was not a spam approach but a one-off, because very few girls would hear that you are approaching 20 girls in a day on the street and not be turned off by it. IMO this is predatory. Especially if you're involving a bike to chase girls down, like the post I was replying to originally. That is moving into super sketchy territory. Creeping out 50% (often more for many guys) of girls you talk to when doing daygame to get a few dates or to get laid is not really OK. At the very least it's a highly selfish mindset. In a bar or a club you can literally tell a girl you're just out trying to get laid and she'll laugh if you have good energy. There's much less BS or lying involved. I like that a lot more.
  19. That's why I think day approaching where you are so predatory, specifically leaving your house to go hunting for tons of girls to approach is kinda dumb. It's always pretty creepy. Most girls if they saw you saying you were riding around town on your bike hunting for girls to chase down like a tiger, would be pretty repulsed. The problem is that an attractive high value guy with a decent social circle should not need to do that to meet girls. Or just go out to places that are more conducive to meeting/talking/socialising with new people than a high street. It's better for everyone involved.
  20. The term has got a bad reputation because 90% of the content in the self-help world and 90% of the influencers in the self-help world are full of shit. It's a very scummy industry because if you are confident enough you can peddle almost any snake oil as self-help, even if you have zero real world experience, and people will believe it.
  21. I don't know if you realise how creepy this sounds
  22. One of my mum’s friends did this. She cheated on her husband because of basically the reasons you’re talking about, now they are getting divorced but he has to keep paying her and her new partner money to “maintain the lavish lifestyle” she lived before.
  23. I think the reason people spend so much money on self-help is that it's potentially easier to spend 50k than it is to actually do the hard work of facing your fears and insecurities head on which is what really grows you. "If I spend 50k, it must mean I don't have to do anything else hard, or face my fears, I just get what I want handed to me on a platter, right?" But something like getting better at dating especially can't really be bought like that, which is a large part of why these courses are BS.
  24. That’s just a belief. There’s no proof for that
  25. You may be right that some AI people are delusionally optimistic about this but you should be open to the idea that you may be delusionally pessimistic. You’re very arrogant and it makes me instinctively disregard a lot of what you’re saying All of this paragraph is either meaningless or baseless. Using lots of fancy words doesn’t make you right. I perhaps agree with the last sentence but not for the same reasons you seem to based on the rest of the paragraph.
