haha, cool.

Useful reminder, thanks. One trap you can continually fall into is assuming that you're already open, which fundamentally seems to be just disguised closed-mindedness. That stance might be based on arrogance too, even if just in a subtle form. It might not be recognized as close-mindedness until you open up -- until the space or contrast for the recognition to take place is created. Or some such.

Mainly, you just have to do it. Read a book and take notes. Choose a topic, research it and then take notes however you want. A digital format is best, imo. A fun aspect of this process is coming up with your own system/structure and customizing it to your liking. At some point you'll likely intuit ways to go about organizing your notes organically. There're also many templates and ingenious ways to structure your commonplace book out there. Check out the Second Brain by Tiago Forte and Obsidian tutorials on YT.

Better learn to interact and communicate effectively with them.

Why ask abstract and closed questions? Seems unnecessary and based on false presumptions. First become conscious of what you are. Get busy contemplating. Good luck!

I was contemplating adulthood or maturity. One thing it seems to involve is the capacity to do something for another without her knowing. Another is being able to do something that serves something outside yourself and self-agenda.

Learn to live with them or move. that's a possibility too. communicate, stop coming from that victim or hopeless mentality. rather, ask: how can we empower our coexistence? im dealing with a similar situation. consider hurt. they may feel hurt, try to see that behind their "attacks".

If you want, you can instead create a thread about the practice itself, which is semen retention (without the associated ideology and dogma of any trend/movement). Keep it clean and grounded.

Pretty much, generally speaking. Some may abstain from coffee but drink soda and other crap unhealthy drinks, which doesn't make much sense to me. was going to mention that. Isn't excessive red meat consumption in the long-term associated with illnesses like those? Here, that seems to be considered common knowledge where we generally follow the mediterranean diet. not to demonize meat. I just bought beef and chicken for the holidays!

Caffeine isn't a food, coffee is. It's made from beans, after all. It's similar to comparing vitamin c vs oranges. A supplement won't be metabolized the same way as a whole food.

Here's a challenge for you: do not swear for a month.

Cristiano definitely in the top 10-15. Don't forget his 5 "golden balls." Disappointing last couple seasons, that might be why he's been discredited. Why would the debate Messi vs Ronaldo exist in the first place if the latter didn't deserve it?

@Gesundheit2 true

Di Maria is that kind of player who gives it all but gets exhausted rapidly. the guy can't sprint or play at his high-intensity for 90 minutes. Also he's 34 and recently got off an injury, I think. Along with Mesut Ozil, he was one of my favorite players when he played in Madrid.

what a match

fuck, lol

@The Mystical Man Look forward to Just Jesus January haha.

lol, what do they expect to find? A signpost? "You Are Here."

I feel like Argentina hasn't played particularly well nor have they confronted a strong opponent, unlike France which played against England. Netherlands and Croatia are excellent teams, but England is probably better than those. In any case, virtually no match has been easy for anyone, not even for the top teams. But Argentina has Messi, so as long as they don't concede goals, they can win any match. Before their defeat to Saudi Arabia, they hadn't lost a single match for about 15-20 or so consecutive games. I prefer France's defense and attack, to be honest, except for Messi. My intuition tells me that France is a better team and that it will be the winner. Spain will receive the "1.000 passes to lose" trophy, that's ok for us.

@The Mystical Man

@The Mystical Man so you've been doing semen retention since November until now?

Lwt's see in 20-30 years
