your maths is very linear. making a difference is not about the masses, it’s about individuals. its about the small changes or no change at all. why do you link your personality to sticking out? - you can, even these days reach a status, be famous etc. would that change anything? so why do anything for fame if you could do it for a difference? stop thinking as a herd animal. there is more than one life form, and maybe it’s enough if you make a difference for just some or one for one.

you never once banned someone for sexist mysogynic behavior, (even if it got personal) if so only because they would be additionally provocative against (male) forum members. if this is a statement for future behavior you would have to censor yourself a lot even. the quality on this forum is not really constantly high, in sense of non toxic productivity - even if a lot of people try to keep it in balance. if it wasn’t so toxic there would be a lot more females writing here. (if that was desired)

for example in my training needs assessment (i never trained on that, obviously i try to learn the method of training needs assessment while doing it) today i decided to start with the basics again, like being my own secretary. i decided a secretary function is one of the departments my business can’t skip out on. i will train on being my secretary for the next couple of days/weeks while my creative productive me will be absent, until i master that. how do you guys organize or structure your business if you are basically a oneman show?

yeah, but there is a difference between that study, a womens majority, truth and what a social media platform is making out of it. these are all issues about adequately handling information or misinformation, understanding and misunderstanding and the willingness of such aka motive. (stupidity for example does not need a motive it’s already a motive, which is why it is in fashion)

whatever, the article holds the specifics of the study very vague. it‘s a bit weak. especially regarding what kind of hate speach they were talking about.

@Illusory Self yes just make a scratch on your bedsocket tally. no reason to get poetic.

the „natural“ censorship on languages or culture is far more present than the censorship on hate speech. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extinct_language

@BlueOak then would you say language is natural censorship? especially if a small ethnicity is not able to speak their language? express themselves? like for example dwarfs.

@BlueOak can you think in another language? how much would you estimate americans to think in a second language?

@PhilGR i don’t really understand if you want to change the situation in greece or in the netherlands.

yeah both examples, what countries are you speaking of? - i‘m really far from generalizing it, but women tend to be more generalists even if specialized, with some exceptions. men and women tend more to talk without being specialized nor having a general overview over a situation which would lead to the specific context of the discussion. this is not a new phenomenon but a social media phenomenon.

nothing just is, and still everything is in a way. most emotional conflicts are very personal, in that not just for you but especially also for people who are close to you and some of them are affected directly. i don’t think emotional maturity can be reached without supervision, if you are able to do that alone to an extend, you must have been teached proper contemplation techniques in advance. if you have issues and questions in you disturbing you, it might be also disturbing for someone who’s not able to discern your emotions from his/her own emotions because not being supervised enough about the handling of such. there is a constant problem in searching for supervision in sameness vs difference ofc, it’s the problem of not being able to change perspective. a lot of males are anxious about emotions because of emotional socialization, hiding emotions seems a better survival strategy, at times. pushing away, is a better survival strategy at times. that’s also why males seem to seek supervision mainly in close friends, often in other males and sometimes in their female partners, because of trust, sometimes of ego and not of competence decisions and even if the supervisor is a competence decision the outcome may still be ego decision. seeking help from a stanger/therapist seems counterintuitive, but is the approach with a higher success rate in finding explanations, solutions and working independently through emotional baggage. although competence is also not equally distributed in therapists and therefore you need to find someone who is a good supervisor for you. and then you might also be able to talk with your family and friends again.

@BlueOak yeah, ofc let’s start republishing hitlers MEIN KAMPF internationally, i‘m sure men and women would like that pretty equally. @Bobby_2021 can’t you update at least on your username?

pre-post-trans fallacy, if you don’t know what that is you can’t be aware or conscious of it.

do you generally include consciousness into intelligence or not? or with what do you start counting intelligence?

yeah def in this context and that logic, some logic flies and other logic doesn’t. generally speaking truth seems to make people more stupid than intelligent, who‘s interest is that?

@Leo Gura this is the biggest bullshit you ever told yourself. and it seems like you are finally outing yourself, as the suspected misogynist you probably are. this sentence you should value it as a male. if you can’t you probably are not a male. if you can appreciate that, your claim might be occasionally true. if you cannot, its false.

@Haribo you think so?

@actually looks like it. doesn’t say it on that page but if looking further into the brand you can find information about the rosavin:salidrosid 4:1 ratio - they seem to keep it in that standardized dose. its a bit sad that some brands don’t give information about the actual content of these two substances in their products. good luck with it! will probably not be the whole solution to your problems but might at least make it a bit easier and flatten the curve. you also might have to pause after using it for a while, because the body gets used to it and you would have to take more then to get to the same result. i always used it as long as i was feeling down and stopped shortly afterwards, sometimes just one day, and sometimes i took it preventive. they say it takes some time until you can feel an effect - i‘d say 6-12 hours but can be it takes some days for others until they can feel a mood change.

@actually then you can try standardized rhodiola rosea without problems. its the best plant based anti depressant i know of, you would find it in the adaptogenic neutropic section. you can‘t do much wrong with it, it might help you through the downs. it also can help against anxiety.

patriotism is purple

@actually if you are bipolar, yes it can worsen. i wouldn’t self experiment with drugs, your system is sensitive already - what you want then is a stable lifestyle, enough sleep during the high phases (if you can’t sleep anymore it‘s a sign you should go see a psychatrist for meds). i see that you don’t want medication, i don’t know another way. you can try self supplementing with standardized rhodiola during the low phases (stop taking it as soon as you feel better because it might trigger a high phase) might be l-theanin helps during the high phases but that’s a total guess and only a sytem support, so beware of selfdeceptions regarding selfmedication. i also don’t know how much you would need or if the l-theanin would even support a higher serotonin build up after blocking it for a while. if it’s getting worse i‘d see a psychatrist and bridge the phases with meds until stable. as nice the ups are as low are the downs, so the ups are more dangerous. (usually rhodiola is not recommended for bipolar, so only take it in the down phases and only if the l-theanin is stabilizing you during the high phases, so test on l-theanin first, you also need some kind of mood scale which you use daily to figure out where you are at, if you experiment on that, it’s blank hypothetical)

you think creativity and detachment are a productive combination?

@Vynce become a pornstar.

@actually it‘s perfectly fine, you can be happy that you still seem to be able to calibrate and probably make direction changes. not giving a shit about what anyone (male/female who cares about the gender) says but what you figure out on your own about yourself and others. just be aware that this has a slightly manic/depressant or at least bipolar or anticyclical feel to it a bit, and dissociation is the most dangerous selfdeception then, so stay careful. regarding your friends, you also need positive feedback for calibration, hope you also tell each other what you like about them, too.
