  1. Why limit yourself to following one dogma when you can abandon all ties to any organized religion and just take the best from all traditions? Are you gonna actually follow all of the rules of islam like the dietary restrictions, abstaining from premarital sex, staying away from drugs and alcohol, and follow Shariah law?
  2. Im a man and I once had my toenails painted for months at a time (A girl did them, I didnt do them myself). The people who called me gay were very obviously insecure about their masculinity. What does a "real man" even mean?
  3. Theres something called a math tutor who would do this for you for payment. In the USA this a good tutor will cost $50-$150 per hour
  4. Have you done the Life Purpose course? Something better will not just come around. You must actively seek something better and try to get out of this situation like you have a gun to your head
  5. I would say its only worth it if its a technical field where it be difficult to impossible to learn outside a university. Stuff like computer science, math, physics, medicine, engineering, etc. For writing I feel it would be a waste since you could easily self study that stuff. The best education in this area would probably be to create your own curriculum, read and write a ton, and join some peer groups that would help critique and improve your writing Some resources: https://www.openculture.com/2014/01/harold-bloom-creates-a-massive-list-of-works-in-the-western-canon.html https://thinkingasleverage.wordpress.com/book-lists/mortimer-adlers-reading-list/
  6. Create a budget of exactly how much the trip would cost and then save up. ^^ this lol
  7. Theres no way that you actually got COVID 15+ times. It has to have been a faulty test or you have the Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome
  8. What is your definition of being a professional musician? I would consider anyone who makes $1 in music a professional. In this clip, macklemore talks about how he felt old af at the age of 26 and realizing that he never really gave music 100% of his dedication. 27 is still relatively young, youre just comparing yourself to the young kids that the record labels sign and spit out in a year. I bet if you dedicated a whole year to just creating the best album you can and then trying your best to market and self promote, you would surprise yourself with the results. Im really only familiar with how rappers made their rise to fame, but I bet there are some lessons you could take away. Look into how Russ finally made his breakthrough with his releasing one single a week strategy. Also read "How to Make it in the Music Industry" by Ari Herstand and "All you need to know about the music business" by Donald Passman. Also the movie Whiplash is great to watch for any creative people who need motivation Remember that the only one who can kill the dream is yourself. https://makingmusichappen.com/musicians-who-started-late/
  9. If I knew for sure I was going to die tomorrow, I would take 1000mg of 5-Meo Malt and avoid it all together
  10. Lmao. The video is called "How to make her orgasm in 10 seconds"
  11. I guess all I can say is cross that bridge when you come to it and develop yourself so that if you do have to be in such a position, you will see that justice is carried through
  12. When you become official boyfriend and girlfriend When I went to an RSD seminar, there was this guy who spoke and said that a way to test for loyalty is to pretend to get really sick or have a depressive episode. Also possibly pretend you lost a lot of money. If she stays loyal at your lowest, you can probably bet that shes not just an opportunist
  13. You must first define what winning means for you. Winning in life is different for everyone. What is your definition of winning in life and why?
  14. Really the only way to switch this thinking is through self purification. As long as you have selfishness in you, you will see bad in others. Realize that those people you call bad have people in their lives that see them as good. Even some of the most evil people in history like Hitler had hundreds of thousands of people who saw him as a good leader. Lawyers also have this dilemma where they are required by law to try and prove the innocence of people who have committed horrible crimes. I definitely agree with you that the Parkland shooter should have faced the death penalty, but also realize that there were lawyers arguing on the defense of the shooter who tried to claim he was mentally ill and was not in control of his actions. Also in the case of the potential "bad victims" of the parkland shooting. Does them being in your eyes morally bad mean they should not have the right to justice? ^^^ I feel this is the best way to move forward. If you keep getting hung up on fringe possibilities, you will never end up taking action to making a better world. Just trust that if you are doing your best to create good and holistic policies that benefit society, you will create a better world and that evil/selfishness will slowly be purified (Even if it takes hundreds/thousands of years). Commit to service, selflessness, and integrity in your politics and the rest should take care of itself
  15. I would say a low dose of LSD would be the best for a brainstorming session. Probably would be best to have a list of specific questions or ideas to contemplate while tripping so you dont get lost in infinite consciousness. Without LSD, Steve Jobs may have never created Apple
  16. Youve made a similar post before. Realize that there is no such thing as a "bad victim." In politics youre always making a choice between the lesser of two "evils." Whatever good policies you create will inevitably help "bad" people so stop torturing yourself by only trying to help a select group of people that you have biasedly called good @DefinitelyNotARobot also explained it nicely
  17. I always try to use screening questions like "What are your thoughts on Aliens", "Have you ever tried psychedelics", "Do you meditate or do yoga", "Have you heard of books like The Power of Now, Be Here Now, or the Bhagavad Gita", etc. You can get a pretty good idea of someones stage of development and openness to new ideas by their answers and then afterwards you can point them in the right direction by recommending a video that would seem interesting to them.
  18. god dam. How do people actually spend time watching these buffoons for 3 hours. I guess some people would say the same about watching a 3 hour actualized.org lecture lol
  19. Maybe the aliens domesticated us
  20. Why would you assume emotions are inherently human. Also it seems very plausible that evolution would cause intelligent life forms in roughly the same way across the universe. It would make less sense if the aliens were extremely weird and foreign looking creatures. If youve ever seen the movie Arrival, I think theres no way real intelligent life would take that form. Also possible that these Aliens manipulated our DNA to increase speed of evolution.
  21. It all comes down to genetics, diet, sleep routine, and amount of time spent meditating well. 2-4 hours is pretty low for even the most extreme humans. I would try lowering it to 5-6 hours. Youre gonna have to spend at least 1-3 hours meditating or in some form of yoga. Also its a fact that vegans sleep less because they eat so light that theyre body doesnt waste energy digesting shitty food. You could also try polyphasic sleeping like Buckminster Fuller, Nikola Tesla, and Da Vinci. https://www.polyphasic.net/polyphasic-sleep-schedules/ Overall steps 1. Have extremely consistent sleep schedule and avoid blue light before bed 2. Have consciousness work/practice with either meditation or yoga a couple hours a day 3. Clean up diet. No dense carbs or fried foods. Probably some form of keto, paleo, or vegan diet depending on preference/genetics The rest is down to genetics This is like seeing a physically healthy person and saying its not possible since most people are unhealthy. Many things that humans do in their daily lives have negative effects on their sleep patterns
  22. The only right answer
  23. Never lead with money when meeting women. It automatically sets a "provider" frame and they just see you as a meal ticket to get free stuff. Never spend a dime on a dime if you know what im sayin
