  1. My father just started his pension and his birthday is may first. I want to give him a book about psychedelics. He has a relaxed lifestyle and I think psychedelics could be an incredible addition to his life if he wants to explore them. Can anybody recommend a book that gives a good introduction into the topic, which outlines risks and chances and which can spark interest? It's important that it's not too woo-woo because my father is relatively scientifically oriented but it also shouldn't be some perfectly materialistical-paradigm-implemented boring af Sam Harris book.
  2. Sounds like advertising for bigger dick cream.
  3. I study to become a teacher atm in math and philosophy. I dislike math but my thought process was that because math teachers are rare this gives me a strong basis of negotiation to teach a lot of philosophy which I would like to do . I also thought about doing another social job with my diploma and because I am already in sixth semester keeping math would be the fastest way to do so. But much of this are lame excuses built around fear of quitting. I feel like I haven't given math enough of a chance yet a bit because I kinda half assed myself through the semesters with bad grades and with private lesson support and so on but maybe if I took it more seriously I would like it.. Anyway What I thought about recently is that maybe math won't be as important in the future thanks to AI. In general the whole school system would need to adapt because school doesn't teach free thinking but that's the only thing humans have over AI. All the mindless learning by rote produces humans that can easily be replaced by AI. And the only reason I would ever study math is to become a teacher. I don't see how math would have any really meaningful value for me in my personal life. And I think math will have less of a meaning for most people in the future because the average person won't need good math skills because that's easy for AI I think. So it's hard to justify the hassle to do math atm. Other subjects that I find interesting are theatre, sports, social studies. This are subjects which normally aren't that attractive for a teacher but maybe with AI developing more I could imagine them becoming more important because when AI makes society more wealthy society could evolve into more free time orientation or more playfulness and creativity which is where I think brilliance and intelligence is created which is important for commanding AI.
  4. Is jerking each other off or giving/ taking blowjob sex or does sex start with penetration?
  5. No because I am too lazy. But it's better to do it. I am sure someone on this forum will have this opinion because there is no common consent with anything regarding a healthy diet on this forum. Other than maybe cutting down on junk.
  6. 60g of protein a day from milk products. Mostly low fat quark but also cheese and very low fat cheese. I put them in an instant pot so manually 1-2min. They cook for half an hour or so.
  7. 26g of protein from 100g of raw red lentils. Thats pretty good. And it's the most ethical and probably/ hopefully non contaminated source of protein. I cut out protein powder completely right now to see if my skin gets better because I had a few days recently where I ate a lot of garbage yet my skin was at its best and when I came back to eating healthier but also included protein powder my skin got worse. So I experiment on cutting that out. I also consume a good amount of low-fat milk products and sometimes an egg or two. So I get like 60g of protein from milk, 26g from lentils, a bit from grains, and a small amount from other sources. Thats good enough for me. No meat or fish as I am vegetarian. ok Well yeah you could get rich with that it's not some silly idea. ah okay
  8. Do these benefits increase considerably more after around 100g of uncooked legumes, because that's around the bench mark where my gut stays relatively still. I don't think bloating is unhealthy it's just that it makes me socially uncomfortable because of the noise of my gut or the chance that I might fart because society shames these things. I heard that certain spices can actually reduce bloating though. Do you think its possible to create a supplement which reduces bloating by neutralizing these bacteria which cause gas? Oats are as beneficial as legumes??
  9. Thats actually more of a counter argument for me for eating these foods because I like to minimize my fiber intake on all sides around legumes so that I can eat the most legumes (protein) possible without bloating, gas etc. but I do like the taste of whole grains sometimes. They tase really "healthy" to me.
  10. The beauty of a bodybuilding body: Just like a flower is beautiful because of its short duration I thought that metaphysically there has to be something about a bodybuilding body to be beautiful. A bodybuilding body is both extremely muscular and with extremely little bodyfat. The muscle can represent strength/force/power while the low bodyfat can represent endurance/resistance/invalidate. Strength is only really visible when there is a big enough resistance. So a bodybuilding body metaphysically is/represents fighting through difficulties. Thats a certain kind of beauty.
  11. Almost nobody puts his real name in the forum which makes it more outstanding. Sometimes I say that I am German and that I go to the theatre. That should be enough.
  12. In the scientific world quantum physics is the best proven theory of the world that we have..
  13. Oh okay. Yeah I don't think much of frugivore diets as well. Oh I just basically meant that sometimes our emotions completely dominate our rational mind and wanted to illustrate that on a romantic example but I didn't write that well sorry. Okay I misunderstood.
  14. What do you like about acting if I may ask? You can go to theatre and see how you like it there. At my theatre most people want to become an actor. It's true that most actor start young. The director of my theatre group says after 26 it becomes difficult to get into the acting business. So start collecting experience now!
  15. Ok Of course they can have some good point but they are also good at triggering and working with panic to get their point across. They can make very stupid things believable because they activate some more primal parts of our brain. For example if they show examples of vegans who look like skeletons and put it in a story where they don't outline the things the vegan did wrong with their vegan diet and just say This is the result of being vegan period. That triggers some real deep primal panic in you. Even if you now that the particular vegan is mentally ill, maybe only eats a handful of fruit and does everything wrong and could easily gain weight with grains, nuts, legumes, .. the more emotional stuff shapes your mind a lot more then a rational argumentation. That's why I wouldn't listen to it to begin with because it's hard to bring reason into a very emotionally shaped view on something. Just like you can't convince your emotions that you can just be chill and talk to that hot girl because she is just another human like you. Well maybe but that takes a lot of hard work, a loooot of convincing of the rational mind. I don't think you're bad informed otherwise I would not have argued with you for so long. I just feel like the way you talk about some things you seem to be emotionally about it. "diet" like why? That's so emotionally charged.
  16. No oats are oats and not wheat. It's a grain where wheat, spelt, rye, .. fall under. Per definition grains are not vegetables. Sure. I would try to get most of the protein from the diet though as protein powders can contain heavy metals. With legumes and grains you can get enough protein though so you don't even need to supplement that. True. Well you could buy very organic animal products but that's expensive.
  17. 25-30 pounds of fruit In bananas that would be 10735 calories and 125g of protein and 34g of fat In apples that would be 5856 calories and 34g of protein 45g of fat It's funny that at those quantities even fruit becomes a fat and protein source. Because the truth is often boring and these "miraculous" examples are mostly rare exceptions and often don't show the full truth. There are 8 billions people on earth with different genetics. Someone will have the right genetic to thrive on anything. And if it was all so obvious everybody would have figured it out already.
  18. Natural Oats aren't really a veggie but there is nothing wrong with it. If you eat a Whole Foods plant based diet with lots of legumes, veggies, fruits and some fat sources that is certainly healthy. If you want to be lean then this is a great diet to do so. You should supplement Vitamin B12, Vitamin D and omega3 of EPA/DHA sources at least if you do it vegan. I don't think adding some meat especially lean meat or fish is a bad thing health wise (ethical wise it is a problem) but it is not needed.
  19. Because sex is primarily used for reproduction and having kids with family members can lead to deformities and stuff like that. Nature wants us to have kids with different partners with diversity or whatever.
  20. On cannabis this bottle which I hold in close distant seems bigger then sober. Cannabis is a psychedelic. Psychedelics increase consciousness. If consciousness rises the conceptual understanding (things) lowers and direct experience is more in focus. Conceptual understanding -> the bottle in front of me is small Direct experience -> the bottle in front of me is big
  21. There is somehing about even the most ordinary objects in reality that is a bit "fishy" if you put close attention to it. Like that they are certainly yet hiddenly connected to something greater/ something epic.
  22. Predictability Animals are very predictable in their behavior which means they are pretty consistent. Humans on the other hand are a lot harder to predict. Jean-Paul Sartre goes so far in comparing animal and human that he says the following. for humans: existence precedes essence for animals: essence precedes existence Meaning that it's clear what an animal will do if it is put into the world. If you put a lion into the savanna there is just one thing which it could decide to do which is doing lion stuff. A human on the other hand can't be predicted like that. A human could invent shit, commit suicide, play the guitar, .. I don't think that's an absolute statement though. Even animal behavior is very complicated and most of the time not fully understood and at the same time you can predict the behavior of many humans pretty well. So hypothetical from an all intelligent entity there might not be a big difference between animal and human, there might just be more details to consider when predicting human behavior. The interesting question is what does it mean that certain behavior is more predictable than others? Is little predictability a sign of intelligence, wisdom, consciousness, .. ? We speak very badly of people who are easily to predict. Bots is a funny new swear word and it describes exactly a person who is very predictable so we intuit that it's a "bad" thing. So let's dive deep into what makes for predictability. If an object is very simple it's easily predictable. A rock is as predictable as it gets. A flower is more astronomically more complicated than a rock but still easily to predict. A bear is astronomically more complicated than a flower but still relatively predictable if you dive deep into studying a bear. A human is astronomically more complicated than a bear and pretty hard to predict, definitely not with certainty. So it seems with primitivity and simpleness comes predictability. A human is much easier to predict when strong emotions are at play. (Rationality is informed by emotions). What seems very hard to predict is when humans/ other evolved sentient beings act out of intuition. What is also pretty unpredictable is when humans act out of selfness motives. Selfishness makes predictability. And selfishness also seems to be rather primitive. Intuition is a complicated one. Its a form of intelligence but does it have different traits then reason for example? Is intuition a trait of of high intelligence? Does high intelligence has to be selfless?
  23. Agree I thought the carnivores diet is defined as 100% animal based. If you can eat plants then of course I agree. So vegans need B12 from meat Yes I agree that through cooking our diet changed a lot and people thinking we should go back to nature and eat lots of raw leaves and fiber are actually wrong because that's not even natural for us. We are not apes living with technology we are homo sapiens living with technology and there quite a big difference between these two. I don't think a gorilla would eat a lot of legumes. There are many cultures where people eat a lot of legumes. I feel great on legumes. Yes you have to poop more often and maybe sometimes fart but that's not a health problem it's rather a problem of society thinking its better than animals and repressing these certain natural primitive things. I am not saying anybody can eat a lot of legumes though. Some people simply haven't built the gut bacteria for it and other people will never be able to adapt to it because of genetics. Do you have links for these health problems though? Most of them don't seem true at all for me. Especially muscle wasting lol. Legumes are literally a great protein source. And you don't have to eat a ton of legumes as a vegan. You can build more around starches, pseudo grain, tofu, nuts, seeds, veggies, fruits. You can eat that very well prepared with moderate amount of fiber and still get your nutritional needs met with a little bit of supplementation. Yeah fruit diets are dumb af, that's not what an educated vegan would eat. I think what's important for health is what is happening in our gut. ketogenic-vegan-diet just as an example of what's possible but not the go to vegan diet. Well we had that argumentation before. Most people still season their meat. Also high calorie food such as fatty meat or fish taste good universally because of lots of calories and that this an an unfair comparison even though I don't mind the taste of unseasoned veggies, find some legumes and starches by themselves pretty enjoyable and I like fruit. And if I were really hungry I would probably love all these foods. The matrix? Omega3 fatty acids are literally a subset of polyunsaturated fats Do you know what you are talking about with all that? It's true though that a high omega6 to omega3 ratio in your diet can cause problems like inflammation and not so great skin can also be attributed to that. So yeah a good amount of fish or a good amount of o3 supplementation is important for good health. Edit: Ideally the ratio should be 1:1 although almost nobody even comes close to this and most of the greatest minds probably don't have that ratio either. Although it's pretty rare too much omega3 is also bad for health. So fish should be balanced out with plant fat sources. All essential amino acids can be found in plants in good quantities. All animals that eat fish aren't as intelligent as humans. So this "If there is a survival benefit to intelligence animals become more intelligent no matter what their diet is and if not they stay dumb no matter what their diet is. At least that's my observation." still stands. Also I wouldn't discount animals so quickly. Many animals have incredible problem solving abilities. Our natural environment which is very intellectual makes us a lot more intelligent just by itself. If animals would have the same cognitive tasks each day suited to their species then I think they would be far more intelligent. And even if not as intelligent as humans they still got intelligence somehow without fish. So it's wrong to say that omega 3s enable intelligence. If that were the case no plant eater would ever reach any level of intelligence. I like pretty much ll veggies in cooked form and many of them raw by themselves. Your taste buts adapt to what you eat you now. Yes most of them have been selected and hybridized. But it's the same for animals. I can eat more than 100g of dried red lentils in cooked form sometimes without having to fart once when I am relaxed. I can eat a lot more legumes a day although then I need to fart but I don't get stomach problems below like 300g of dried matter. My gut is definitely adapted to it but it might also be genetics. Both seeds, everything has a little bit of fat in it, .. no clue if in the end that would be enough. But we need relatively little fat to be healthy. It can be as low as 10% of your calories coming from fat and that is still considered healthy (if its good fat sources). oh okay. Doesn't that taste like a sugar bomb? I loved the taste when I once had it. If I just hear names like Sv3rige or Freelee the banana girl I know you listen to very uneducated people. Sorry to say it so harshly. They are extremist on both sides. You filled your mind with trash from listening to these people. If you want to listen to good vegan YouTubers listen to someone like Derek from Simnet nutrition. Just someone who actually studied that shit. yeah yeah but even lets say 3 times a week fish and the rest plants. That could be as little as 5% of calories. We keep on finding new points aargh I mean we got at least this far. We both agree that we are adapted to a cooked omnivores diet because of omega3s ALA and EPA/DHA. Supplementing can be pretty as healthy as the real things even though it is not as natural although humans kind of isolate things sometimes. What the argumentation revolves around now is I think "Can the bulk of the diet be plants or should there be a significant agree of animal products in it?"
  24. What does that mean though? How can we always be connected with being (because being connected with illusion, that being is not being experienced is also being as described before) but be disconnected from it? How can we be "not-be“? Or on the other hand how can we connect with something we are already connected with or in other words realize something we in a sense already realize!?
