And you know who delivered the deception over decade’s to fuck America up. Can we get back on track? Only until….

Man, they gotta come up with some better traps for retards like me!

Very true

I literally don't have time for any of that, maybe a bit of weed to ease the fact that I don't have enough bitcoin!

So, so true. My non partaking in the above - a couple were past mistakes - makes me seem Amish to a lot of my contemporaries.

Modern antidote: Sport, Reading, Nostr, Faith, Discipline, Sobriety.

weed good

Weed bad, but alcohol good? Bro please 😒

Why do you consider therapy to be bad?

Losing youthful spirit is the death of experience. Those examples seem like escape mechanisms for a dying culture and lack of face to face interaction.

I do enjoy a splif and game here and there though.

There's nothing wrong with vices and escapes in moderation

Agreed!

Translate for a non-young woman, what is "boss babe culture"?

Most modern therapy pathologizes normal life. Creates a victim culture. Turns trauma into identity. Labels everyone as some type of mentally ill, when really they just suffer from ordinary misery. Endless self rumination is toxic, which is exactly what therapy does. There’s no morality or guiding principles. I could go on… lol

Both are bad bro bro

Hyper independent women who are faux empowered to glorify hustle culture and over-identify with their career status.

Weed bad

Modern traps: Christlessness

"Most" would be the keyword here as none of this applies to my productive and beneficial experiences with therapy. Though I do agree with some of your points, I think labelling therapy as bad and a trap is generalizing and not valid. Therapy can be like a box of chocolates.

in certain contexts, I think it can be beneficial. stereotypical “stoner” lifestyle obviously not something to strive for.

What's wrong about video games?

Man, you must love god and all that shit, i am sure!

Buddy stop drinking alcohol. Work on that.

I pretty much don’t anymore. Maybe 6 drinks a year total.

Hijack the reward mechanism. Fake achievement.

Most therapy is bad

Video games are a weirdly sacred cow. People don't want to admit that marinating your brain in an engineered fictional world is somehow bad for you

There was a time when I laughed at old people for saying this, but now I agree as an old fart myself. Especially so for games with killing and normalizing violence.

This sounds like you had a bad experience yourself on which you base a vague general statement , or you had no experience at all with makes the statement baseless. There is no “most therapy” as each example of therapy is a unique relationship between the therapist and the person using the therapy. Good therapy aims to undo all the things you listed, and is a useful tool for some aspects of life.

Agree on this, disagree on weed

This sounds like you don’t have as good or clear of an understanding of the cultural zeitgeist as I do. Glad you had a good experience in therapy though.

You don’t think weed can be a trap for people?

Is one of the worst when it’s addiction more than recreation. And it’s addictive and antisocial

I'm sure it can, depending on how mentally weak you are. I'm 57, been smoking since my teens. Hasn't stopped me from accomplishment, and/or drive. I don't smoke everyday. Just for some down time. All depends on personality. Saying it's just bad period is generalizing everyone into same category.

Weed is physically non addictive. Maybe mentally it can be. And I actually become more social. 🤷

Most people are extremely mentally weak. Hence why there are so many weed addicts.

Good. Works differently. Mind I ask if you are more social to a specific class of people (the weeders), or with everyone? In my observation, I have seen otherwise social people to corner mostly with the weeders as it turns to addiction.

Agreed. Most ppl are mentally weak. But it's not the weed that causes that, it's their inability to discipline themselves. All addicts are just constantly trying to escape reality, because they don't have the fortitude to deal with it. That's not a drug problem, it's a mental one.

There's a good chance, if it wasn't for RPG video games - with alternative monetary systems, I would not been open to the idea of Bitcoin. (I'm almost certain of it) Single player campaigns are no different than books. I stopped online gaming 20 years ago as I found it was largely mind rot (unreal tournament 2004)

The problem with Therapists :

This is sad man, don't go extreme to the other side you'll just swing right back.

Regardless if you feel you have a good understanding of the zeitgeist or not, generalisation as a way of seeing the world is rarely helpful long term. Don’t trust (someone else’s opinion), verify (for yourself). 🧘🏻‍♀️

I’ve done therapy a few times. It’s not for me, but again happy you found value in it!

lol 😂

found out that i need mentors and coaches instead of a therapists and psychologists tbh regular ranting and trauma dumping is not good for you need guidance, inspo and tips and tricks on how to succeed

@HODL is basically a boomer

That’s what a boomer would say

Alcohol is poisonous.

Incentives are messed up, too, in therapy. A few people need it. Most don’t.

amen brother

Unfortunately those are always the people least likely to go to therapy lol 😂

Checks out…. View quoted note →

And what are your traps?

So many. It’s not like I’m immune to any on the list above either.

So it is also a reminder for yourself, not only advises for others.

Yes absolutely

And did you get out your traps always alone or with others helps?

Alone

this is the way

Everyone this image is cgi. Trump was never friends with Epstein. Only bill clinton. Conservatives and Christian’s cannot be pedos. Only liberals like Biden and Clinton. Trump is a Christian and never fuked little kids. The democratic hoax machine created this cgi image of Epstein and trump. Trump in the past fucked little kids but after his recent assasination attempt found Jesus and god according to @Jor and @Jerry Loves Freedom

Even Grogu helped the one who protect him, sometimes...

Fiat mindset in general

I remember this note from a good man : View quoted note → It seems you came from an extreme to another. You relied on bad people who betrayed you or your faith : "I had a misplaced sense of loyalty and was loyal to the wrong people at times. ", "I made enemies" So now that you changed everything, you don't miss anythings about this 10 years ago guy?

“Things I don’t like are very bad.” Lol View quoted note →

No I don’t miss anything. I dropped the things that no longer served me and I kept the things that did. I don’t consider that extreme. Nor do I consider my original post above “extreme” in any sense.

Are you implying they know too much about human psych that it's harmful and counter-productive?

A tangent to porn for men: spending all your energy trying to get laid constantly. It's like real life porn, hollow, soulless, meaningless.

Hope to see what you will be in 10 years so. You have some clear view about yourself, it is not so ordinary.

Now to whew created all of those things.

Okay, I disagree. A bit too simplistic!! Weed isn't bad. I'm also a bit older than you. Now my question to you? ADHD with or without weed. I choose weed, and you know why? Because your brain works a little differently than with hesitant, insecure introverts. When you're busy and very impulsive and communicate easily with everything and everyone, it's very helpful for the people around you that you level out sometimes. Otherwise, it goes way too fast for others. And I have to slow down. Otherwise, it's hard to understand you, and people can't keep up. Without weed, I'd always be on. My brain would be racing for hours. Believe me, without weed, you wouldn't last two hours with me in one room. The first 25 minutes would be fine, but then the ADHD kicks in. And don't give me coffee, because then you'll beg me to smoke one. It slows me down, calms me down, and weed makes you creative. Handy with building, music, and helping people with their problems. And being open to it. Remaining accessible. And being able to tolerate the stimuli. It works perfectly for me! Think a little deeper before reacting or doing something. Like if you have ADHD, I think you function best with a joint instead of pills. What do you think? I'm just an expert by experience. I've had this discussion often in real life with different people, and they always judge. I don't smoke cigarettes, only joints. I don't drink alcohol or anything else. If you make music or are passionate about something, it boosts your strength and mentality to keep going and keep your goal in mind. I have to say, others react very differently to a joint; they fall asleep and become lethargic. I become clear-headed and active. It's not a solution for everyone, but I believe without weed I would never have achieved what I have now. Plus, it's wonderfully relaxing when you have a busy life and come home in the evening. You can intensely enjoy food, the little things, and your family around you. P.S. Don't smoke weed in front of children. I'm curious about your reaction. I never expected to type such a piece of text here, so it's bound to be worth a valuable response, right? I find these topics interesting because no one in my life has ever understood this. And I think if other hyperactive people read this, they might see a connection. Keep doing what you're good at. Don't get addicted. As an old Indian once said to me, she didn't smoke it pure at the medicine man for nothing. P.S. I'm hardly ever sick. Always active. Do you know how nice it is when something can calm you down, so you can also get a good night's sleep? Bitcoin doesn't fix this. But the freedom Bitcoin gives you, combined with your passion, will also be accepted by the people around you for being that weed smoker who's always active and keeps their appointments. It's not the weed, but what kind of character/person smokes it, and how does he handle it? And why does he smoke weed? P.S. My uncle had Parkinson's, so it might run in the family. And he was happy to smoke a joint with me until his last day. I've been smoking it for 30 years now, and I don't judge anyone who does. So now I'm curious about the reactions below.

If you don't understand that the purpose of cannabis is to help you reach a meditative state, you don't understand cannabis.

To get into a meditative state

Bitcoin influencers: Having fun is modern day trap, stop having fun immediately!

when you buy cheap Bitcoin you can give people shitty advice because you have achieved samsara hahahaha 🤣🤣😂 I see why @Greeny real don't like this dude 😂

Why is weed a trap? Don't answer, cause it's just hatin'

Modern traps - taking advice from an influencer.

The devil would hate this post

Not including alcohol just proves how much it’s the alpha trap for all. Accepted, promoted, loved, longed after, relaxing, sophisticated. I quit 2 years ago & like BTC, my life chart when up & to the right.

not including pills and opioids when we have a huge problem with that in America means this is just a list of this i don't like. I smoked multiple times a day everyday in high-school as a coping mechanism for severe depression that was caused by medication, and i disnt end up trapped.

Valid point but I think the pills/opioids comes after the initial trap. At least that’s how I read his post. It’s more about things that are sold as “harmless” or accepted & then BAM; you ded.

Not even sure what dude we talking about… 👀

Pills and opioids usually come after you hurt your back, not from the "gateway drug" that grows wild in every part of the world

Right that’s the point. These things seem innocuous but can quietly ruin you. I didn’t include alcohol because it’s not uniquely modern. Alcohol has been a trap for every generation. That should be well known and understood. Wheras if I even lightly criticize weed people get offended.

Forgot about that. Very valid point. I retract. I’ve seen this hit close to home as well. Heartbreaking addiction via a trusted doctor.

that's the fucking point 🤣🤣🤣😂

🤔👌🫡🫡🫡 Fuck weed. Shit is a brain killer. And smells like ass. Tried once many moons ago. Knew it wasn’t for me.

I have adhd also and I don’t prefer weed

a chatbot with a prompt that specifies writing epic walls of text? lol

Ik ben geen BoT Mleku . Hoe vaak moet ik het je nog vertellen 🤔

Short and powerful!! Maybe not as intense as me. My wife and friends are happy weed exists. Luckily, not everyone is the same 🫂

try writing paragraphs then

I'm trying 🤙😂

there's this key on the keyboard, marked with an L shaped arrrow going down and pointing left. try to use it when you move to a new concept

Aaight 🫡

also, i do have a basic grasp of dutch. lived in amsterdam for about 3 years in total

ik begrijp een beetje nederlands

I know 🤙 i never talk dutch, german or spanish on here . Only when we are having fun.

My wife often describes me as intense lol

Whaha thats why she loves you . Everday is intense , different and unpredictable 🤗

Everyone describes me as intense. 🤝 also adhd and non weed enjoyer

It’s the hyperfocus component. That’s why we come off as ultra intense. Other people aren’t used to that level of focus. It’s like we’re going 600 miles an hour and everyone else is going 60.

Totally agree

What If @HODL is my porn? What do i do now. Zzzzzzip

👀

Infinite Attention apps are as damaging to young women’s futures as handing young men a bunch of meth and guns.

Got a book coming out soon, stay tuned 👀 But for a taste you can go through my nostr feed, Medium, Substack...

tHe PuRpOsE oF CaNnAbIs Dude, there's no purpose! It's a plant that humans learned that gets you high. Get high all you want, but don't come with "purpose" bullshit lmao

Never was into sports or betting. Porn and weed are gone. Video games, oh man I love me some gaming. I enjoy all art forms and ludic(play) art is so new and exciting! However, I see old friends wasting away at video games without even breaking the surface of why they like playing games in the first place or how games differ with their storytelling from movies, paintings, music, books, etc. Content creator gamers/streamers have the most shallow interpretation and understanding of games. They completely ignore or are unaware of what the gameplay is doing to reinforce the storytelling. I was about to go into detail with specific examples but I can see my spirit animal losing interest. I’ll just say this: moderation is essential, always think deeply about the media you consume, and what would God approve of or disapprove of?

What alpha bro carnivore diet incel shit is this?

Ok aligned bro

But it's also fun 😄
