No, long-term injury. Neymar is made of glass, too, but he'll presumably recover from his injury soon.

It must be true, then. What are you waiting for?

@Someone here What are your predictions?

It's your metabolism, and the ice cream.

@Schizophonia You got fat really quickly.

Hmm, I'm not so sure about that. The person might be real, though. I hate when something stinks of being AI-generated and isn't advertised as such. Some degree of paranoia might be involved on my part as well. Are you AI?

Isn't this the second time you're asking me? Not every cult is bad, though.

First's one AI, to be clear. (And honestly, the second one might be, too.) People love that shit, don't they?

I honestly love the new font.

And for some reason this doesn't prevent it from happening.

Fair enough. Props for that. But seriously tackle the topic of belief. It's easy to miss it and would be very useful, if, again, people don't believe in it. Get clear on what it is. If you aren't, I'll bet your followers aren't either. Also, it's interesting that you frame it as intellectual work.

Go over @zurew's points again. I feel some of the antagonism is directed at that kind of analysis. You'd be easily swayed by people here talking the way you do. In practice, the theory might not be directed at what it claims on paper. Surely you know people just end up following you, even though they try to hide it under a spiritual cloak - "Think for yourself," "mental sovereignty," and so on.

I know the theory. And look at what happens in practice for people, which you tend to encourage, even if unknowingly. It relates to @zurew point about adopting the same terminology. I think an episode on belief would be in order. I don't think you are clear on that matter either. But then we'd start believing in belief rather than looking at the real dynamic at play.

The overall criticisms of science can be levelled at virtually anything. You aren't an honest actor. Now do the same with spirituality, and with the followers of those paths. Expand on the points addressed in the fake spirituality episode. And let burn what needs to burn - especially because it will apply to us, Leo included, and to this place. @Leo Gura What do you expect people to do with some of the blog posts (particularly the more existential ones) other than believe you? You present assertions as true, and that's often the end of it. Have you thought about what effect they have on people when it comes down to it?

Eh, I'm stretching it. There's a cultural component behind it, though.
