I saw the comment too, it's probably the libertarians/prudes offended by the example of daughter-rape who're downvoting it to oblivion, if anyone else sees it make sure to upvote Leo's comment, I'd like to see more interesting discourse

@Knowledge Hoarder ? For me, it's Billy Mays (Rest in peace ?)

When there's no special someone to do long drives with and unironically karaoke corny late-90s videogame soundtracks to ????

You can't just say that without posting a source: https://www.revolt.tv/article/2022-05-05/167282/controversial-youtuber-kevin-samuels-passes-away/?amp https://hiphopwired.com/playlist/kevin-samuels-rumor-dead/amp/

I agree on all the points except for point 4 and 6: 4) I think the High Consciousness Resource doesn't need to be fused with the Review Section, rather it should be more high quality, more polished and more moderated. An idea it comes to mind is to give access to it to people who have done serious work for long time, people who have a higher probability of posting high quality, integrated, wise, nuanced and powerful insights and resources. Personally I don't use the High Consciousness Resources section often because I'm not ready yet for turquoise stuff (and I usually found mostly turquoise stuff) but it doesn't mean that section can't be used to post high consciousness yellow stuff, high consciousness green stuff, high consciousness orange stuff, etc. If you combine the two sections together, you'll have a meek section with just some basic advice and high quality advice I think will be viewed as less impactful than other advice. 6) If you want a private journal, just journal by yourself, you don't need the forum. The purpose of the Journal section is to make your struggles and process public so as to be accountable for your improvement and get some support. If you can't journal seriously without using a public platform, even if privately, then it's not a matter of platform or place but a matter of commitment I think. Also, the journal section could contain post with photos, videos or very long posts. If it becomes a backup platform for all the people doing our work it could fill up the space on the servers. So the publicity of the journal section keeps not serious people at bay. Feedback for @Leo Gura @Leo Gura @Roy I have the same sentiments as @Superfluo , High Consciousness Resources and Self-Help Product & Book Reviews are distinct and while they have low post counts it doesn't seem necessary they should be combined. Also it clashes with the Self-Help rating system Guideline because there would be low rated books alongside high-consciousness resources. I personally think the Self-Help Product & Book Reviews should be more moderated or have the Guidelines changed either so that: -only reviews would be posted there from now on (book recs/questions would do fine in Self-Actualization), or -having the review ratings in titles be actually enforced to easily distinguish them and sift through from the miscellanous-like book recommendation threads that flood there

Call it the Social Matrix subforum

Cigarette users who have been inhaling smoke all their lives:

Bro it's just words on a screen. No, but really, take a step back and look. You're just clacking keys on a keyboard making pixels appear on a screen for other pairs of eyes to look at. Nothing more, nothing less. Looking at the big picture and seeing how much a habit of yours is aiding or obstructing your life can help you decide what to do with said habit. In any case practically you'd want to audit your time and see just how much time you're actually spending here compared to everything else. Actually keep track how many hours from start to finish you spend browsing here (or anything you think you're addicted to for that matter). There's apps that can do that for you, I myself use StayFocused premium to track how addicted I am using my phone apps and block them and it has helped me a ton.

Does anyone have a plan B- oh wait there is no plan B if an DDOS attack actually happens that's recruiting/splitting the community

Are you going to prevent them from posting on the sub-forum or are you going ban them from seeing it entirely?

@Leo Gura

All these games mess with me Will the chase be the death of me? It's 3 AM and I'm tryin' to forget you I'm so lost, I don't know what to do Every time that I lied I just needed to be free I was dumb, it wasn't me You know, you know I was young and afraid Always looking after me But I think I finally see it all I should've treated you better Should've treated you right 'Cause the grass ain't greener on the other side I should've treated you better Should've treated you right 'Cause the grass ain't greener on the other side I should've treated you better Should've treated you right 'Cause the grass ain't greener on the other side I should've treated you better Should've treated you right 'Cause the grass ain't greener on the other side I used to hate your stubborn ways But now I don't want you to change All your love was all too much But now I need to feel your touch Every time that I lied I just needed to be free I was dumb, it wasn't me You know, you know I was young and afraid Always looking after me But I think I finally see it all I should've treated you better Should've treated you right 'Cause the grass ain't greener on the other side I should've treated you better Should've treated you right 'Cause the grass ain't greener on the other side I should've treated you better Should've treated you right 'Cause the grass ain't greener on the other side I should've treated you better Should've treated you right 'Cause the grass ain't greener on the other side

Jordan Peterson agrees.

@Virtually Thanks mang, learning something new about the forum little by little

To me Owen says the same things Leo talks about in his Social Matrix episode. It never even occured to me he was into conspiracy talk.

@Space Here's a better alternative:

Have a good birthday you talking head

Orgasm without ejaculating is not what the average person is doing, I doubt they would even know that exists. You say to stop telling people they shouldn't masturbate yet you're essentially saying a should yourself (you should masturbate only in this non-ejaculatory fashion). Besides that, if what you're saying is true, then most people aren't masturbating healthily anyways, how many people do know this orgasm-without-ejaculation technique?

That's funny, because fapping once a day is my own minimal goal for reducing my streak. If there are days where I do not fap at all that's a bonus for me. Back when my Internet addiction got really bad I'd have consecutive days where I get my release 3-4 times day, I think my hottest day was seven. And I been in communities of people who done just as much if not even more than I have. So count your blessings if you're only jerking off once a day, there's worse off things you could be judging yourself for, nor do you have to judge yourself for your hair fetish either. Everybody has their own unique tastes

Hey buddy I think you got the wrong door. The Spirituality section's two blocks down.

@Husseinisdoingfine Wow, on second thought, yeah, you should join the army. Godspeed dude ? /sarcasm

@Antor8188 I think that's mostly for gay men brah https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Handkerchief_code "The code was most widely used in the 1970s in the United States, Canada, Australia, and Europe, by gay and bisexual men seeking casual sex, or BDSM practitioners." "The hanky code was a semiotic system of sexual advertising popular among the gay leather community of the United States [10] and cruising scene more broadly."

You wouldn't be tempted if you were around when that mod-who-must-not-be-named went on spamming that Neo-Advaitan nonsense ?
