  1. Do regular walks improve art?  Does drinking water improve art?  Does eating pizza improve art?

    The answer is yes to pretty much anything you can think of.  Mindfulness isn't anything special, it just calms you down.  What else has this effects?  Relieving your hunger/thirst, taking your mind off things, taking a big, satisfying shit, etc.

    You have to become aware of how you make people feel. Sometimes it's not good.  

    I don't even talk about meditation/consciousness to most people.  I'm selective about who I talk about these things with.

    If I trust someone a lot I may talk a bit about solipsistic ideas.

    If I really trust them I may talk about remote viewing.

    Beyond that I may talk about psychic ability.

    And if I fully trust someone, I may talk about the astral.  And if I suspect they may be more than a layman, I might use less well-known terms to gauge how deep I can go with them.

    I have no idea what you mean by this.  But I'm pretty sure I'm not interested in finding out more either.  Please keep comments like this out of my journal.  It's disruptive.  If you ever get a job I wouldn't be surprised if you get busted for sexual harassment. 

    What?  Well that's what people normally mean by such mystical experiences..  A merging of souls in realms beyond the physical.  Has nothing to do with sex, that's just what it's called??  That's the official name given to what you describe.  I assumed you're familiar with these things, but I guess not.  You speak of psychic abilities and knowledge of the non-physical, yet have never heard the term astral????

    You kinda give mixed signals as to how much you know about the topics you talk about.

     

    And I'm self-employed btw

    @Osaid It’s making my quality of life worse every time I do it. 

    Do you happen to, coincidentally, also hold negative beliefs about masturbation?^_^

     

    If I fully believed coffee is the devil, then I'd be disgusted every time drank some, and would even have physical symptoms.  My heart rate might go up, I may want to throw up, I may start to sweat, I may feel weak, I may see myself as pathetic.  All because coffee is the devil, and I just had some.

    Would your views on masturbation be the same if you were a girl?  Would rubbing yourself ruin your life?

    @thisintegrated China's tech sector got nerfed hardcore with the semiconductor trade war that the US is waging on them. They're severely behind in their own capacity to produce them and most of their industries are solely dependent on that to stay relevant. BRICS nations perhaps have potential over a 50-year window but their economies and politics are super unstable for the conceivable future.

    The US is absolutely looking dominant economically for the next 10-20 years. 

    Dollar's at a 20 year high, and finally starting to fall.  Not gonna take that long to lose dominance.

    And 10-20 years is enough time for China to make its move.

    @Tyler Robinson I don't mean to be rude, but you're one of the people on the forum who engage in drama the most. I think this is something you should REALLY really contemplate deeply, because you seem to have a problem with this. There also seems to be a lot of projecting in your post (I'm not saying that as a judgement, I'm basically doing the same thing right now). I hope you find a healthy way to deal with drama.

    100% agree.  Just ignore/block them, like I did.  Trolls feed off attention.  Nothing good will come off interacting with them.


  7. Give up, and embrace it.  It's not without its upsides.

    It does suck, but at least I never have to work another day in my life??

    I can spend more time here on the forum??

     

    Actually in theory it's amazing for anyone who just wants to meditate in a stage Green cave their whole life, too bad some of us with CFS struggle with even that, lol.

     

    Amphetamine helps?

    If they genuinely will be able to produce electric, self driving cars at 1/100th the price then sure, theyd be unstoppable. 

    a 10th of the price, and they will.

    All you need is an e-scooter ($500) with a 3rd wheel ($30), cameras ($10), self-driving software ($0 at scale), a big half-plastic-half-glass window ($100), and a shitty $5 seat.  And there, anywhere in the country for free, rain or shine, with no license.  Attach your our own solar panel and get an extra 10 miles of range per day.  Attach a solar trailer, and never run out of power.

    Can they sustain that? In 20 years, I feel theyre population problem will start getting really bad. Also with the zero covid policy, will civil unrest throw them off that trajectory?

    Nah, they only fuck up if they invade Taiwan.

    If they wait until they're producing all the world's e-cars, they'll be unstoppable.

    Who's gonna buy $10000 self-driving cars from 'murica when you can get them for $1000 from china?  No need for license, no pollution, keep it inside the house if low on space, etc. and if you have a solar panel by 2030 then driving anywhere is 100% free.  I sure will buy from China.  Americans love capitalism, I'm sure they'll understand why I buy from China and not them??

    Oh and.. would you look at that.  China doesn't even have to steal tech, Tesla's given China EVERYTHING the US has, and now US doesn't even have an R&D advantage.
