After some brainstorming with Claude, it turns out even territories such as the Moon or Antarctica have legal jurisdiction (you carry your own country's law with you, or the spacecraft's flag state's), and the only truly unclaimed land on Earth is Bir Tawil, a patch of uninhabitable desert between Egypt and Sudan that neither country wants. Anyway, this is what an Actualized.org "World Tour" would look like:

@Davino cool — what would be the easiest way to contact you and learn about the services you provide?

What is integrity?

Sorry, bad framing on my end. What I meant is the tea bag itself should not be made out of plastic. Because when heated it releases microplastics and chemicals occurring in plastics. I don't drink tea, but personally I'd only trust buying the tea plants myself and then using my own tea bags or these stainless steel mini strainers — even better. Especially if it's something you do daily. @Zenterus Rhonda Patrick has been quite vocal on the microplastics issue recently: https://www.foundmyfitness.com/episodes/protect-against-microplastics

Would NL or Brazil be alternatives? NL: 5-MeO is really not a scheduled substance, but not legalized either — gray zone. Not sure what the consequences would be if someone is caught carrying out a retreat with such substances. Probably not worth the risk. Brazil: Ayahuasca is legal only inside a religious ritual context. There would need to be... Sounds risky too.

Sad to hear it didn't work out. Personally I would attend even if knowing I had 1% chances of breaking through, but I understand the decision. Carrying out such innovative/transformative retreat is not easy. +1000 Even if online, but in person it'd be even cooler. 😎

Sunlight and meditation in the morning. First one is not easy in the NL, I know, but when you can, it could help. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-025-09785-3 Also check if you chamomile tea is not served in bags with microplastics. Especially cause we pour boiling water on them, they release harmful chemicals. And avoid eating 3-4hrs before bed to further boost sleep.

Yea makes sense.

If you're jerking off every day then staying a couple days without it will definitely increase your libido. Personally, I don't see much benefit avoiding jerking off for longer periods like more than a week.

Wdym?

Yes. Either false or such an insane simplification that it barely reflects reality. A reminder of how disconnected our conceptual models are. Yet I still find biochemistry fascinating. I've been watching lectures on it recently as part of exploring what might become my new life purpose in a few years. I still struggle with the temptation of going down the scientific rabbit hole sometimes, while intelectually knowing that true complexity can't be fully grasped rationally. Anyway, what would be the alternative, if my passion is related to health and biology?

Love this — thanks for sharing. Found the full video here:

Some do. Actually, what's mostly advertised as "longevity" is still worth implementing because it enables healthspan and personal integrity (assuming well-grounded advice such as sleep, nutrition, physical exercise, not wellness gimmickry). You may not live longer than others, but the fact that you're taking care of yourself allows you to be the healthiest version you can, as well as build the personal integrity that will transfer to other areas of your life. And, even if you have bad genetics, there are still things you can do. For example, I have the MTHFR C677T variant, which makes my body accumulate homocysteine (currently understood as a bad thing for the cardiovascular system). Knowing that allows to me intervene by supplementing methylfolate at a therapeutic dose. Just as one example. Another way to leverage your "bad" genetic information would be to reduce risk elsewhere. Imagine you have the Lp(a) gene, which increases your cardiovascular risk. You can then reduce risk via other factors (e.g., lower LDL and triglycerides), so as to compensate. At the end of the day, all these tweaks, changes, and optimizations are uncertain to yield substantial results. We do it because we like it, and because it's a form to manifest self love and build integrity.

Biology, biochemistry in particular. Happy to hear any recommendations.

+1000 ✅

Deep insight from "Think and Grow Rich": when you have a deep desire you don't need to know how — you will figure it out. Just keep your focus on it and believe that you can. Your subconscious mind will find ways.

@Ben_P, I can recommend you the work of Corey Wayne — just google his name and a BUNCH of videos will appear. His "How To Be A 3% Man" book is highly recommended — read it 15-20x as he recommends 😁 (I'm not joking). He's got great relationship material, a topic that's often underrepresented in traidition PUA books and dating advice. What you'll realize is that most of the time our insecurities are unfounded. They come from past trauma experiences that don't represent reality that accurately. That doesn't mean they're easy to change either, as @Valach importantly pointed out. Another book you might want to read is Robert Glover's "No More Mr. Nice Guy". I discusses about toxic shame, a fundamental concept in this journey.

Good old rule: when a guy tells you his body count, divide it by 5. When a girl tells you hers, multiply it by 5 😂

Thanks @Davino, didn't know about this feature.

Actually, the life purpose's content is so deep and so good that I should have paid 10x for it 😅

The more integrous you are in one area of life or situation, the easier it is to maintain integrity in other areas. So if the user values fairness in financial transactions, it's actually not a silly move from them to exercise integrity and do what they judge right.

Fascinating, and very delicate as you mentioned. Thanks for sharing @Yimpa.

I can come up with one reason in favor of health: the less healthy you are, the more your survival needs are exacerbated, and the more locked into the survival paradigm you get. Some people suffer so much that they end up completely escaping survival and going straight to the spiritual realm. It would be another route to awakening, we might speculate. I don’t consider myself fully awakened so I am mostly speculating rather than speaking from personal experience.

Super interesting — can you pls share references?
