I guess I’m just not around enough stage blue women. Hot takes on The View are usually the spiciest politics I hear from them.

Stage blue women are not only feminine but also quite dogmatic and delusional about what femininity is.

@Leo Gura You talked about not forcing truth on normies but on people who follow the work of actualized.org. Does this mean that we are not normies ?

A wise monk was once giving a lecture on the nature of the universe — how stars form, how time flows, and how existence came to be. At the end of the talk, an old man approached him, looking skeptical.

 

“Interesting theory,” the old man said, “but I believe the world rests on the back of a great scam.”

 

The monk raised an eyebrow. “A scam?”

 

“Yes,” the old man nodded confidently. “Everything you see — politics, money, relationships, even hope — it’s all built on a grand scam.”

 

The monk smiled gently and asked, “But what holds up that scam?”

 

The old man replied without hesitation: “Oh, that’s easy. It’s scams all the way down.”

You guys are truth-seekers.

Hopefully.

To me truth above all means respecting the sovereignty of other, high integrity, purity, kindness,
not lying, respecting the golden rule, having respect and care towards the nature and earth.

No. None of that is truth. Truth is simply whatever is.

How about veto-ing the sovereignty of other with absolute solipsism for transcendental sado-masochism?
Or does that make you n-one a Zen-Devil?

That is most categorically considerable, but is it factually verifiable?

She loves the drama of intense ups and downs with such sincerity that she'd actually rather ride that wave than to kill the spectacle with "solutions" like a boring, linear, dry male.

100%. They are usually not happy when you provide them a frame or a solution that obliterates their emotional problems.

I noticed that Orion Taraban opened up some eyes on this forum. Now if Leo is serious about truth he should put his book on the book list. It is called the value of others. 
 

In his book he goes into the mechanics of relationships and into topics like power, love and truth. 
 

On this forum, only his most superficial topics are discussed while the really powerful stuff is power itself.

Women also don't want solutions to their problems. They want to be heard, empathized with, and validated.

Truth would solve their problem, but they don't want that. They want emotional support for the same problem that never ends.

Exactly. This is why I'm moving to Thailand to date a ladyboy, your blog post made me obsessed with this idea. 

You get the best of both worlds: the beauty of a woman with the sense of a man. 

And cock.

Escaping Maya's snare requires a cold detachment which favors the masculine.

Here by “escaping Maya” you mean Death right?

I noticed from your blog posts that you too are also developing a fascination with niche American religions. I recently made a thread about this exact topic.

@Husseinisdoingfine I study human pervertry.

Haha - I don't think anyone is laboring under any illusions.

There is a subtle but powerful art to flirtation - and it's not always a sexually charged endeavor. Very underrated skill.

It's about wit, context, subtext, pattern recognition. Play, strategy, callbacks, challenges, banter, subtlety. Much of the fun of it lies in how well the receiver returns the serve.

I gotta hand it to him - credit where credit is due - Leo is rather good at it. He doesn't miss much, and that sharpness translates to his skill there. 

Its that 'Gotcha!' feeling when you hit it right.

I flirt to manipulate at work a lot. It leaves people with a positive impression as I aim to create laughter through wit. If the subbies always remember laughing while interacting with me, they will have positive associations. This means it will be easier for me to direct them to a shared goal. This type of flirtation is not sexual in nature, more the wit and banter type. It is a way to, ah - skillfully navigate - feelings to achieve shared goals.

I am sure this is utilized in pickup - @Leo Gura @Miguel1 I think you might have some good frames from a pickup standpoint to add

I will add this is a very powerful framework to learn, as it has multiple applications!

@Natasha Tori Maru

Reading your breakdown of flirtation feels like watching someone diagram 4d chess. A single well-timed quip can lighten the mood, map the emotional terrain, and nudge everyone toward a cooperative orbit. No small feat.

What really resonates is that “Gotcha!” spark you mention. For me it’s less a volley over a net and more like two code-breakers realising they’ve cracked the same pattern in the same instant. That shared click says, “You see the subtext too.”

People often assume that kind of banter is effortless. They miss the quiet observation, the mental dress-rehearsals, the constant fine-tuning so wit lands as warmth instead of shrapnel. Keeping that radar on all day can be oddly draining and isolating in the face of so much contact, which is why a stretch of solitude afterward paradoxically feels like flipping the breaker and letting the circuits cool.

Your point about laughter as a strategic anchor is spot-on. A genuine laugh softens defences faster than any memo; once it’s there, steering everyone toward the shared goal feels less like compliance, more like collaboration. It’s emotional aikido rather than manipulation.

Anyway, thanks for articulating the craft so cleanly. It’s reassuring to meet others who treat light-hearted wordplay as both science and art. People who know that beneath the sparkle is a serious intent: making the room feel a little lighter and everyone in it a little less alone, while still getting the job done. Even if the price you pay is loneliness.
