When you say that you have way too many creative impulses, what does that practically look like? Do you have trouble sleeping at night because you have so many great ideas flowing through your head? Or how is the overflow of creativity impacting or affecting you day-to-day? First I would nail down something more specific on each area like acting, music, etc. You kinda listed some of these, but still a little vague. What genre of music do you want to make? What area of math interests you? Who would be the target audience of your politics videos? If I was trying to figure it out for myself, I'd make a list of criteria and then assign a weight to each. For example: 1. Barrier to entry (how hard it is to get started) 2. Skill curve (how hard it is to get good) 3. Your passion for it Some things like being a movie actor or NBA player have such a high barrier entry, that to pursue them basically means you won't have time/energy to pursue other creative endeavors. So personally I would probably rule those out. If it was me I think I'd start with the YTP videos. There's a very low barrier of entry, but the skill cap is high enough that you can grow and learn a lot along the way. And those editing skills will be applicable to making skit videos and other items on your list. It's also something you're likely to naturally grow out of over time. There's only so many pingas/spaghetti videos you can make before you get sick of it. Unless you blow up and start making money off it, then I'd double down on it. I wonder if this is something you could outsource to Fiverr. Or find a friend to work with who is really good at playing music by ear, then you can just kind of hum what you're thinking, and they can bridge the gap and translate it into real music for you.

I agree. Propaganda is just marketing and promotion of ideas, instead of things. Since it's not tangible it doesn't feel as real to us. But all the marketing terms like conversion rates, etc still apply. I've mentioned on the forum before how serious even memes are. They're an effective form of propaganda and they accomplish a goal. Lots of things that you think are inocuous entertainment are actually propaganda. Far more than you realize... movies, songs, all of it. On a more spiritual level, many of the concepts spread through propaganda or conspiracies are mind viruses. Like a physical virus gives you physical symptoms, a mental virus gives you symptoms like rage, confusion and paranoia that keep the virus in you longer, and helps spread the virus to others. I'm basically talking pseudoscience at this point but maybe it'll be accepted in the future.

Before enlightenment; Chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment; Chop wood, carry water. Overthinking about all of it. Eventually you reach a point where you realize actually you can close Pandora's box again for yourself if you want to. Enlightenment, holotropic breathing, kriya yoga, personal development, meditation, shadow work, self actualization, spiral dynamics, etc etc etc. You don't need any of it. Most of it doesn't get you anywhere and it's just mental masturbation and extra stress. How much is it really about finding the truth, how much is just an expression of being a neurotic overachiever and wanting to be special or know more than everyone else (speaking from experience.) You can just stop and chill. Maybe not to the point that you go back to a job that you find unethical. But not having to go live in the woods either. Just being able to breathe, and enjoy life. Sitting and watching a sunset is closer to God than trying to open the next spiritual enlightenment loot crate. It's better to eat a donut and be 100% in the present moment and enjoy it completely, than to try to optimize your diet with the perfect smoothie. There's nowhere to go, there's nowhere to be. It's already perfect. Just stop overthinking -
Not nearly enough details to give an answer. From just your text this reads almost like a Russian Bride type situation where you aren't just enabling, you might be getting scammed. It's also entirely possible this girl completely loves you and is loyal, maybe you've been talking for years and have video calls for hours every day and have a real connection. But from just the information you've provided, I have no way to weigh those probabilities.

If you try it a few times, you'll realize that opening Pandora's Box has no effect on 95% of people. Very few people have any interest in this sort of thing. They'll just laugh it off as ridiculous and move on. If somebody is in a coma, you can shake as hard as you want and they aren't waking up. The responses you got on Reddit were more unfiltered, in person people will just politely humor you. -
Ironically most of those images are composites or CGI. "If you think you’ve seen a new photograph of the full Earth taken by NASA in the last few decades, you’ve been tricked. It hasn’t taken a full Earth snapshot in 43 years—until now." (July 20, 2015) https://qz.com/458826/behold-nasas-first-image-in-decades-of-the-whole-earth/#:~:text=Today (July 20) NASA released,agency since the Apollo era. You've unknowingly walked into a conspiracy theorist's trap where the facts can actually work against you. Flat earthers believe all of those space images are fake (including the few untouched real ones), and NASA is in on the whole thing. Like in your "earth's core is cold" example, there are scientific proofs that flat earthers simply deny. There is some elements of science that you can use to dissuade them and point out the flaws in their arguments, but others like space photos are simply off the table that they'll never accept. When dealing with any form of conspiracy theorist, you need to know their own argument inside and out, better than them, in order to try and pull someone out of the delusion. There is a minefield of facts and misinformation, and one inadvertent wrong step will accidentally set them off or cause them to shut down completely, to the point where maybe they won't reconsider their position again for years. Getting invested enough in a conspiracy to debunk it also puts most people at risk of falling victim to it. At least if your intention is to try and deradicalize. If you just want to mock them and write them off as a lost cause, have at it.

There is still a God that loves you and created you, just it's you. Relax, if you can't handle this truth, you can just go back to watching Netflix and forget this ever happened. It's easy to come up with excuses for why Leo is just a cult leader and spreading deluded theories if you want to rationalize yourself back into a normal worldview. Why do you need some external force to love you? Why can't you just love yourself? If you're capable of making the best video game in the universe, why can't you just enjoy it. Even if I remembered every intimite detail about how I made it, I'm pretty sure I'd still be able to enjoy it. For those that get so mindf***ed that they end up in a psych ward for a few weeks, I'm sincerely sorry. But even then, it'll be over soon and you have your whole life to live still afterward. You just know you can't handle this kind of stuff and you shouldn't be consuming any type of deep spiritual content. -
I don't believe in flat earth. But I think most people here are just dismissing it outright based on the authority of science without ever considering it with an open mind themselves. I seriously considered it, watched all the conspiracy videos with an open mind, and came to the conclusion the earth is round by myself. I see that Youtube has really cleaned out the search results since I looked into it a few years ago, wow. All DEBOONKing videos coming up in the results. "Eric Dubay" is the preeminent flat earth guy from when I was looking. He still has a 6-hour video on his channel which hasn't been taken down, that's probably good to start with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFAwRbKLYEo If you want to go deeper than that, my suggestion would be to get off Youtube since it's hiding all the juicy results, and start searching on alt-tech platforms like Bitchute, Odysee, and Rumble instead. For me the biggest DEBOONKER of flat earth would be to buy a weather balloon and a GoPro + GPS and send it up into the atmosphere, you should be able to see the curve yourself. Just make sure you aren't using a fish-eye lens or anything that will distort and make a flat line look rounded. Don't trust anyone else, do the experiment yourself. Go forth and be open-minded. Just try not to be so open-minded that your brain falls out While you're looking into flat earth, don't neglect to go down the adjacent rabbit hole that there's an inner earth which can be accessed through the South Pole. That's a good one.

There's always a risk that you could die with regrets. All you can do is try to be as authentic as you can to yourself and pursue what you find most meaningful at the time. Every field is infinitely deep. Just within music, you could say that you want to master every instrument. In language, you could want to learn every language. But there isn't enough time in a lifetime to even do those things, let alone do it all. Even if you're a famous actor, there's a risk on your deathbed that you'll wish you devoted your time to being an inventor instead, or vice versa. Just follow your heart and intuition. Shop around to get an idea of what's available for a bit, and then try committing to something for at least a couple months. Try to picture what your ideal life would look like 10 years from now, and then work backward to see what skills and knowledge you need to get there.

Yes, there are no souls inside them, or brains working, or anything else, there are no other people there. They're just projections. When you watch a video of Leo, consider that there doesn't necessarily even have to be a physical human that turned on the camera and recorded it. That's all a story. It could be the equivalent of God basically using CGI and creating the video from nothing. You could create a lifelike 3D model of a character named Leo and then make a decade worth of deepfake videos without such a person ever actually existing. It's actually even more simple than that, the universe doesn't even need to make a 3D model, it can just present the finished video to you in 1 step. Leo, and me, and everybody else, has to talk to you as if we are real people with agency, or else it would quickly break the illusion for you. I'm probably going too far with my explanations here even. -
Yarco replied to WokeBloke's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
You're probably closer than you think Be aware that even under the normie science paradigm, there is more than just dreaming or awake. You can lucid dream, literally becoming awake within the dream and conscious of the fact that you are dreaming. -
The reason this teaching can't be communicated is because there is no one to communicate with. I'm talking to myself. HAHAHA what a twist

I used to think this, that I'm god experiencing every being that exists simultaneously, living many lives. I'm me, I'm my wife, I'm my dog, I'm every homeless person, I'm my great-great-great-great-grandchild. So I should be nice to them, because I'm going to be them in another life. Since the last blog video I've dropped this notion. There's only me. There is only one orifice LOL I literally can't believe you guys watched the blog video and you're still falling into obvious traps. He's making it so explicit now. Even his replies here, he told you over and over and you still don't get it. Maybe I still missed something too. I guess I must have, or I'd be le woke. It's still just conceptual for me anyway and I don't actually believe it at my core experientially yet.

Yarco replied to Tetrapeter's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
You missed the mark if you still think other people exist to be awakened. There is no 2nd to wake up. Non dual = not 2. Reincarnation, past lives, future lives. These are all just concepts given to you by teachers. Illusions, lies. All of these forum posts, there are no people behind them. That's just an idea you made up in your mind. The forum itself doesn't exist, because there is no server to host it on. Even me typing this to you, I don't exist. There is no one that typed this. This post just exists. If you have a dream and in it Leo wakes up, and then 100 other people also reach the highest awakening, how many people have woken up? 0. People in dreams aren't real. Stop thinking that you live in a physical body, that you're looking out at a physical world that actually exists. Think of it more like you're watching a movie, or you've had a VR headset on since the moment you're born and everything you see is an illusion. If there is a hand on the screen that looks lifelike and moves perfectly in tune with how you want to move it, how would you know if the hand was real or in VR? How can you even tell if the reality you're looking at isn't 2D instead of 3D? You live in Plato's Cave for 1. Sure you can go visit Leo, you can even touch him and it will all seem perfectly real, but that doesn't make it real. It's still just a dream. "If you die in the game, you die in real life" - Your actions still have consequences so don't do anything stupid with this knowledge. NPCs will still attack you, and the VR suit you're wearing has very realistic pain inflicting sensors. -
Yarco replied to funkychunkymonkey's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
You are waking yourself up via Leo. Leo doesn't exist, and you are Leo. These statements can be contradictory and still ultimately be true. It's a course made for 1. By yourself, for yourself. Pizza isn't real but it still tastes pretty damn good from my perspective. -
Yarco replied to Husseinisdoingfine's topic in Spirituality, Consciousness, Awakening, Mysticism, Meditation, God
It's not bullshit, you can awaken to a degree through meditation, but it will probably take you 10 years or more of serious meditation to have any sort of enlightenment experience. There are different levels of awakening, and the average person won't be able to reach the level Leo is at with even 10 lifetimes of meditation. It's like saying you can't get physically fit through walking. I guess technically you can, but most people won't walk anywhere near enough or consistently enough to get significant results. Even if you walk for 6 hours a day, you'll never build the same level of muscle or cardio compared to someone who does high intensity interval training for 20 minutes 3x a week. Maybe if you make walking your job, and walk on super-steep slopes and extreme conditions. The full-time "job" of Buddhist monks is to meditate for 8 - 12 hours a day and they aren't at the level that Leo is now at. -
At this rate, Russia won't have to invade. There are lots of independent states of separatists in Ukraine and surrounding region that want to break off and become a part of Russia. Would you oppose a group of people democratically deciding they want to break off from their country and become part of Russia? Should the US interfere and go to war over this? Say if the people of Alaska held a referendum and decided it wanted to secede and join Russia.
-
Notice that "Putin has decided to invade Ukraine" and "Biden says US believes Putin has decided to invade Ukraine" are very different statements. Don't try to read between the lines or extrapolate. Only interpret what their propaganda is telling you literally. The US thinks/believes something. No actual invasion has started taking place. No declassified info that an invasion is imminent. Look at the press conference last week where the reporter pushed back for facts/evidence for minutes straight and got none. I don't see what suddenly made them "believe harder", all they've got are satellite images of troops on the border, and maybe spies or intercepted communications. All of which could also just be deceptions to provoke a response. (I didn't read the article because it's behind a paywall/login. And the 2nd article on the topic I tried was also behind a paywall.)

"Hey now, we're all for peaceful protests. Just not in ways that might actually be effective and bring about change. Why can't you guys just hold picket signs for a couple hours and then go back home to being powerless after a couple hours like every other group. If a meaningless symbolic vote every 4 years that does nothing isn't enough for you, you're just entitled" Couldn't we have used the "We don't have unlimited freedom" argument against letting women vote in the past and many other things too? The great thing about society is that it isn't static, we're allowed to change how we're "allowed to behave" if enough people get together and agree on it. If you wanna create a new state for people like me, I'm happy to buy a ticket and go move there. But at the moment there is nowhere in the world I can go and be free. Even the Liberian constitution restricts citizenship to "Negroes or persons of Negro descent." I didn't choose to be born in this society, I didn't agree to become a Canadian citizen. It was forced upon me. If there was a way I could opt out and still retain my ability to own land and travel, I would have by now. I've looked into it. (Funnily enough, in the US you can renounce your citizenship and there are several thousand stateless people.) But there is no free land left on earth not claimed by a government where I can go and set up a libertarian / agorist utopia. Unless I want to go make a floating autonomous city in international waters.

Since no one else has explicitly said it here... You must grind flaxseed if you want the Omega 3 and other benefits. Otherwise it's purely fiber, they will go straight through you without the outer hull coming off in your digestive system. They also need to be ground fresh daily. You can't grind a whole bag and then store the powder, or you'll lose most of the benefits. Toss them in a blender first and grind them up before adding the wet ingredients. Otherwise they probably won't get ground.

I am acutely aware of the fact that I could be an incel if I was just a bit more unlucky and downtrodden in life. One of my favorite Youtubers of all time is an incel called George's Journal (formerly known as Forever Alone Feels and Virgin Messiah.) Been watching every video this guy has made since like 2015, even while he has deleted at least 3 separate channels along the way. https://www.youtube.com/c/George’sJournal/videos There is nothing that separates me from this guy except pure luck. If anything, he tries harder than me, has more willpower, and has overcome more odds than me. But for some reason he's still a virgin. He did nofap for far longer than I ever could. He started eating healthy and working out, lost like 100 lbs and looks like an absolute chad now. He has pushed himself in far more areas of life and developed himself more than I could. All while facing constant losses, he kept fighting an uphill battle. And still no gf. I don't think I look any better or have better social skills than him. Maybe he is doing something really stupid when talking to women, but he seems friendly and charismatic and well-adjusted enough on camera. There are a lot of really weird and toxic incels for sure. But I think people also underestimate that a good % of people just get dealt a bad hand too, and can't seem to win no matter how hard they try. I have a soft spot for incels because I see so much of myself in them. There are some that definitely get stuck in negative thought loops that you can't talk them out of, but I think many are coachable and capable of greatness with just a little bit of guidance. I'm just an incel that a few girls have said yes to. I've treated most of my partners like crap and they still stick with me, and so many incels can't get a break. It's heartbreakingly unfair.

It sounds like you're a highly motivated and hard-working person, you just don't feel inspired right now. How would you feel about just coaching one fitness class per week? When the weather is nicer, you can do it in a public park without having to rent a place, just ask people to meet you there. You can make a Facebook group or go on Nextdoor (if that's a thing in the UK) or post flyers around town and you should be able to get 5 or 10 people to start with. If you start advertising now, you should have a pretty good group ready to participate by May. You could start off just doing it for free to start building a client base. Or offer everyone one free class and then start charging £15 per month (for 4 classes per month) or something. £4 per fitness class is a pretty good deal for them, and when you have 10 people paying you £40 to work out with them for an hour, that's a decent start for you too. I have seen people definitely do this with yoga classes in the park. Anything with the term "boot camp" associated with it seems to get people to come out and pay too. I know the weather in the UK isn't the greatest so you might need a backup though There are a few strategies like this where you can gradually transition without taking on a huge risk. No need to quit your job or start paying to rent an expensive studio right away.

Don't worry about it because none of y'all exist anyway. I get it, universe. I'll look into solipsism. You can stop making posts now. You got my attention. Really clever to remove the video to get me extra interested in it. You really want me to wake up to this, huh -
If you're in your 20s, 12 hours should be more than enough. The refractory period (how long until you can cum again) is 30 minutes for the average guy. For supplements I would definitely try maca root (get pill form, it tastes gross even in pill form). Maybe try horny goat weed as well, but less research on that one. If you watch a lot of porn, it might be a symptom of "death grip", I don't have any experience with that. I know it's uncomfortable but I'd probably talk to a doctor first to rule out low blood pressure or any deficiencies with a blood test. Could be a psychological thing if you felt guilty seeing another girl so soon after the first, or you have feelings for the Vday one or something. If everyone was normal and then suddenly changed that seems weird tho
