  1. What's a lab mommy? Besides, theres chemical bonding happening during the physical process of birthing if I recall correctly. You'll undermine that process with lab shit. Do they even have milk?
  2. The Musk thing is pretty blatant when you think about. Why does repopulating the earth require Musk specifically to breed exactly? Surely it would be more effective to just sponsor a bunch of families to have kids. Mormon polygamy just seems like an elaborate rationalizes for having a harem and sort of mini-cult essentially. Cake is yummy though.
  3. I don't know, just feels weird and kind of dehumanizing. That just my first reaction though. Like, how is the parent-child dynamic going to work if the baby hatches from a fake egg somewhere? Is the first thing the baby sees a nanny robot?
  4. I guess it will be some sort of post-scarcity society at that point. Not gonna lie, my initial reaction at lab babies is disgust and fear. I guess that is a very human reaction though. It's seems kind of sad in a certain respect to forego something as sacred, if you will, as pregnancy.
  5. What would it look like exactly for civilization to be sustained by technology as opposed to "organic" breeding like in the past.
  6. If I was you I would focus on escaping wage slavery first. Hardcore spiritual practice can come when you are sufficiently gorged on success and you have more time and financial freedom. You can bootstrap a rapping career by combining particular niches that require little start-up capital. https://www.actualized.org/insights/breaking-out-of-wage-slavery Alternatively you could renounce modern life and join a monastery of some kind though you'll have less freedom long-term with this plan.
  7. Meditation will help discipline your mind. If you want to get rid of sexual urges permanently you'll have to snip your balls off. It's easier to just accept your sexuality though. Masturbation is normal and healthy. If you masturbate too much your most likely just bored.
  8. Scars in media are typically signs of badassery. Like a scar that curves over the eye after fighting a dragon. Come to think of it, the only aesthetic scars are small thin ones. I have a huge scar on my leg and it is just a mess of irregular blotches of scar tissue.
  9. I think when it starts looking disfiguring that scars become unattractive just purely from an aesthetic perspective. It is not really going to elevate you in terms of attraction otherwise but it can add some mystique perhaps.
  10. Mating is monkey business. Give to god what is god's and to Ceasar what is Ceasar's. But a relationship can teach you compromise, communication and confront you with all your human insecurities and emotional blockades. There's value and necessity in living out the dream to a certain extent.
  11. Nobody gives a shit on the streets. People are too busy dealing with their own life. That is the natural state. It's a little weird to even think that that should be different, to be honest. If you got constant attention from strangers it would get old quickly. It's legit one of the downsides of being really famous or a really attractive woman.
  12. I used to fast regularly, You'll be surprised how much time you spend on eating and making food. Fasting days are a great day to focus on a less active interests and contemplation. It's quiet freeing in a sense to fast and your energy levels don't suffer too much when fasting in my experience. I once climbed a mountain while fasting though I did feel lethargic doing it admittedly. You also save a bit of food and money when you don't eat. That's why really poor people fast a lot.
  13. I kind of agree with this. The factors that enable an authoritarian like Trump isn't unique to him. When Trumpism fails some other authoritarian will probably show up. We also see authoritarianism in the rise in Europe as well. It's a societal sliding scale so focusing on Trump specifically isn't as productive as focusing on the big picture of democracy and upholding checks and balances. I don't believe there's any difference in actuality but it comes of as just a deranged woke knee-jerk reaction to Trump. Fatherless college kids yelling at clouds. Laymen haven't been properly introduced to the big picture as an idea. It's just about presentation.
  14. Stay away from soda. I have a relative who's addicted to diet soda. It can turn into an addiction and its bad for your teeth. It also kind of makes you look childish at the dinner table, not gonna lie.
  15. I've been drinking just water for years. I'm really grateful that I don't have any big cravings when it comes to liquids. When I drink I don't even think about flavor. I drink just to quench my thirst. I always have a bottle next to me at home. I think it is a matter of what your used to. If you've been drinking flavors for years I can see it being pretty bland to switch to just water. I have a relative who is diabetic and he likes to drink a lot of milk, sugar free chocolate milk and yogurt.
  16. Congratulations <3333 What does it taste like?
  17. Israel is definitely punching down here. Israel wouldn't be still standing if it couldn't win the fights it starts. Arabs are generally not very effective at waging war. Their armies exist first and foremost to maintain the regime in power as opposed to a direct conflict. It's just a gut feeling, but even without the US I think Israel would manage. I think their culture instill the perception of being surrounded by enemies as well as intellectualism.
  18. Only one guy survived. Here's a pretty good analysis of the situation:
  19. It's a bit premature perhaps to call it life purpose if you have very little experience doing these things, but it is definitely a good sign that you should continue pursuing them. Just see what happens.
  20. I find distance to be necessary with family members that get on my nerves. Very simple. Requires that you have some self-sufficiency though.
