that's the thing - being unenlightened, even to the point of overt mental illness, can result in tremendous material gain. not just wealth, but status, accomplishment, an ego that believes itself worthy or even great

its arguably a net loss for the person doing it, but the material gains can help millions. they can also harm millions, too

Both enlightenment and unenlightenment have their place...

It's an interesting point that to be Enlightened is to be utterly without preferences. In the extreme, that is equivalent to death. So while we may recognize enlightenment, we must choose to be unenlightened if we wish to participate in the world.

Thoughts about thoughts

An analogy; two types of thoughts cloud thoughts and brick thoughts. Cloud thoughts are vague, uncontrollable, can’t be grasped. Brick thoughts are solid, tough, and can be used to build upon. Thoughts change how we perceive reality, not how reality actually is.

Indians are taking over the American tech sector and c level jobs. Once Vance takes over after Trump the jews will have full control over the nation with most dedicated servants than ever before.

@RoninGrey How people at your job see you:

I thought it was a joke at first, but apparently, I actually AM on an actual, real list at a company's jeet IT department as a "difficult" person. 😆

Hadjis don't like being asked to actually be able do their job, understand english words, not lie about things, not mark things as resolved if they aren't, go off script & talk like a real person (it goes with actually understanding English), be accountable, and have functioning telephones.

I hope I make it into their training program. Final exam.

i've lost 6.5kg in 6 weeks of running. can't say i feel visually too different. it's wild.

@Stahesh glorious!

Halsey comes back and immediately starts coping and lying.

How many times shows did he and TFM argue and it’s only after Iran bombs Tel Aviv did he run away and comes back saying “I didn’t want to argue”?

And then makes excuses for Israel.

@RoninGrey 😆😆😆😆 Now we have AI Halsey vs TFM

How do they prevent you from installing linux or a pirated version of windows 7 or 10?

If anything would disprove George Orwell's idea of Newspeak being an effective tool to prevent ideas from being expressed, it is the people on youtube using every annoying term to get around demonetization.

I find it annoying when I hear the term "unaliving" instead of suicide. Everyone knows what they mean, it just makes you have to jump through more hoops while everyone knows the real word they mean.

Annoying as it is, I am fine with less parts of 1984 being able to happen.
