  1. AI will be deeply integrated with all aspects of our lives. It won’t replace, but augment.
  2. @An young being that’s a beautiful recontextualization, and very much accurate.
  3. @CARDOZZO you touch yourself when watching porn. But you can also watch it mindlessly and not be aware of that.
  4. Porn can give you all that, but it’ll be in a much different context.
  5. @Davino Thank you, I am doing better. In fact, I have another date with said person this weekend (I called them my closest friend, even though I’m still conflicted on what we are, ) She’s helping me explore my feminine side more and is really supportive on my journey. It’s ironic you mention kundalini, because I didn’t know that it meant (according to Wikipedia):
  6. It could be because you’re consuming porn without actually being in touch with why you’re doing it. Could it be that there‘s conflict within you for consuming porn in the first place? Having a clear understanding of your intentions here is vital. Make a distinction between enjoying porn because you love porn for what it is vs. perpetuating a fantasy, despite you actually longing for an intimate relationship. In other words, by perpetuating a fantasy, you’re using porn as an escape, or denying yourself the opportunity to create an intimate relationship because you’re afraid it.
  7. When you are having an uncomfortable experience, allowing the experience in question to unfold with radical openness and curiosity. For example, I thought I was having a panic attack a couple nights ago. It got so bad that I was close to speaking with the crisis hotline (I’ve called them several times long ago when my life was getting extremely challenging). However, as soon as I was about to speak with one, I hung up the phone; I made a clear decision this time to create an opportunity for new learning. I accepted what I was experiencing, and allowed anything to happen. A few moments later, a memory spontaneously sprung up of a time (a few nights earlier) where I helped one of my closest friends out when they were feeling hopeless. This memory alone was enough to completely snap me out of the so-called panic attack. Another lesson I learned from this is I don’t have to specifically speak to the crisis hotline to get support. There’s also the Fireside Project, which is a psychedelic support line. In retrospect, I realize that the panic attack was actually me introspecting real hard after I’d just altered my cannabis medication. So speaking to someone who is an experienced trip sitter makes much more sense than me framing the experience as desperation.
  8. I remember times that I’ve genuinely been there for someone else when they were also feeling hopeless. Not trying to change or fix them, but simply allowing them to be. Be that same supportive friend to yourself.
  9. I have experienced this plenty of times. That is only the tip of the iceberg of what consciousness is capable of. Enjoy exploring, but don’t expect there to be an end in sight. And, yes, you are imagining your girlfriend.
  10. Nope! Scientists have already been working on that already, with great results!!
  11. I believe that my cat had been abandoned and abused. He was really only ever close to me and would be very distant from other humans. It’s truly an intimate connection that cannot be well formulated with words and has to be experienced directly. If you’ve never had any pets before, I highly recommend adopting one for yourself and getting a taste of that sort of intimacy.
  12. @OBEler There are certainly exceptional individuals who’ve never touched 5-MeO, yet have had direct experience of Infinity. I would say I am one of them, but saying that reeks of ego.. lol.
  13. Life is like a box of edibles. You never know how high you’ll get.
  14. I wonder what would happen if there was a country that only had neurodiverse people. I imagine a creatively advanced society and culture, or a really gay one.
  15. Ideologies form when misunderstandings are taken to an extremely detailed level.
  16. What seems a particular way in one context can be seen a completly-nother way in different context. There are infinite contexts, all being Love.
  17. Dating advice teaches you how to get the girl you desire. Real love makes you fall in love with the girl you least expected to desire. GPT-4 analysis:
  18. @StarStruck I made a girl laugh real hard after we’d both opened up to each other… then we said the same exact thing as the same exact time.
  19. For sure. My cat as a teen was my best friend. We both had our unique trauma and bonded through that, despite living very different lives.
