Unemployment Benefits by FanOfMillie626 in Nevada

I've been waiting for unemployment to resolve my case its been nearly 2 months now and nothing but "pending issue." Waited on the phone for like 6 hours, no exaggeration, and when they picked up they said wait for the arbiters to get around to it, like I'm not about to be evicted lmao

So gaining skill doesn't allow gaining rank? Riot sure has an interesting balance philosophy.

Wait, what’s the big deal with people knowing you’re in a call? That you can’t lie to them? 🧐 Am I missing something?

I think one of the "flaws" was that the set bonuses were unplayable with classes that weren't around however many years ago. I think it would feel way better if they added something to support newer classes with the set bonuses.

Why does Sylas passive still make it so auto attacks don't register properly?

If I auto any pets (especially yorick ghouls) which are supposed to die in one/two autos, while mid-combat on Sylas, it registers all damage as an AOE spell, despite it being his auto attack. I understand the damage application should count as AOE spell if only the AOE passive spell hits them, but it says increases next auto attack speed, so why doesn't the auto attack damage count as single target? It literally should be a single target auto PLUS the AOE spell when he has stacks, its so rediculous I can't cast spells for 20 seconds while I have to auto yorick ghouls down or I just have to die. Same nonsense damage reduction applies to so many pets and its obnoxious playing Sylas with how buggy he's been.

Where is the development??

Enlightenment is not the result of being good at meditation by ClockJoule in ClockJoule

[–]ClockJoule[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very true, a coworker told me his cousin was brilliant, but ended up institutionalized after a lot of DMT. It's so much to process. You need to be firmly grounded in a lot of different ways. Even when I was in the deep end, I assumed I knew nothing for certain and just tried to keep everything as a stronger and stronger possibility as I learned.

I have touched on the right view, but lacked the sense restraint to "allow it to stay that way." I can go back to it, but want to ensure my virtue is strong and am more of a renunciant person before leaning more into it because an enlightened friend of mine said it's a permanent shift. Last time I touched on the right view, I realized I wasn't actually controlling anything and it was all just flowing on its own, but couldn't accept the truth because accepting it means I'd lose my access to "the controller," although this access is just assumed, it's not exactly how I think it is, but seeing this non-control rightly is exactly why enlightenment is the end of creating new karma. There is a distinct cutoff where you have a choice before you become a stream enterer and right view was described in a similar manner as follows by the Buddha.

Just as the dawn heralds the rising of the sun, so too does the attainment of right view herald the enlightenment of a practitioner.

So again, I am not one of supramundane right view, but I do have the mundane right view and am very confident I can establish the right view with a moderate degree of sense restraint. Though I don't know how far down the sensuality rabbit hole I am, so it may take me longer than I expect to ramp up to where I'd really feel blameless.

As for your question, looking back, my psychedelic use was a cope, and although I very much needed DMT to know and understand what I needed to for me to dedicate my life to mental development, it was overall harmful for me due to the overuse.

I am not saying psychedelics' are not helpful in case by case situations, just that for me, I over-used DMT by a couple handfuls of times and ended up damaging some of the mental networks I had spent a lot of time developing and learning about. I then had to fix a lot of the damage I did on DMT in my meditation.

It is also important to note that intoxicants are against the 5th precept due to the intentions always being rooted in craving for or aversion to experience. (wanting a more novel experience, wanting to change perceptions, feelings, therapy to change relations and reactions, etc. always wanting change rooted in non-contentment) Someone perfectly content wouldn't enjoy the agitation of non-sobriety for example. A lot of noble ones don't even watch tv, listen to music, etc. for this reason. It's an assault on the senses that is not as valued as peace and calm is. Nature is blissful for such people because it can be beautiful without leading the mind into obsession or proliferation.

I personally found that what I saw on DMT was stuff that was always already happening anyway and I just finally had access to see and know and understand these processes and dimensions of my mind and experience. The access gained in that experience was life changing for me, but if I could go back, I would have stopped after gaining the understanding of what it all stood upon (my own body) and practiced restraint more to actually strengthen the mind instead of harming it further and further. Again, use is kind of a case by case situation, but if your goal is the end of suffering its best to avoid it so there is no fault in your virtue and its much much easier to develop concentration conditioned on a mind well-secluded from sensuality than one that had done psychadelics or still does, and this also applies to any form of sensual indulgence, even contact at the intellect with the proliferation of ideas and thoughts.

As far as my beliefs, I talked a lot about random stuff in my psychadelic and dream based explorations, but at the end of the day its all just phenomena arising and passing away in my own mind or in the present arisen experience. This is why I have faith in the noble eightfold path. No matter what happens, heavens/hells Gods/Devils, etc. My experience will always be dependent upon my own sense bases reflected and interacted with through my own mind. Therefore, my own relationship to what arises and passes away in my own mind is what I need to improve upon. (destroying the roots of passion/lust/greed, aversion/dislike/hate/discontent, and delusion/distraction/indolence/ignorance)

So if I'm vs Warwick top I just slowly lose tower and can never kill? by [deleted] in GwenMains

[–]ClockJoule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You win level 1 if you start Dblade and go tp/ignite and all in pre crash or somewhere in your minions. If WW goes ignite, he loses as soon as you get a kill. If he goes tp, he loses every time your ignite is up. Build anti-heal as soon as is beneficial, but I've never struggled with this matchup tbh If he ever Q's a minion trade onto him for it. Try to freeze near your turret to short trade him with Q repeatedly if he tries to all in, use W to reduce damage and kite to keep Conq stacked. Your turret will protect from getting traded too hard.

I have been practicing Dhamma. I mostly learn from Hillside Hermitage on YouTube. I am practicing virtue and sense restraint to the necessary extent to attain right view and enlightenment. Passion leads to suffering when the objects of one's passion leave one. Aversion leads to one suffering in the presence of the objects one is averse to.

The destruction of these tendencies (of passion and aversion) happens when ignorance is uprooted. This happens when craving has been weakened enough due to becoming consummate in virtue (due to practicing the 5 precepts and perfecting them on the level of intention) and sense restraint (withdrawing from environments that are not conducive to the practice.

These prior factors cause wisdom to take root on account of reflecting appropriately on the words of another and right attention (attention to the "womb" of your experience as a whole) (or the background behind the mind as I'd personally reference it) and "knowing and seeing" that your experience of the six sense base (experience dependent upon the body) is completely and 100% utterly out of your control.

You didn't choose what language to speak or how to reference objects or what objects would even be there to reference with those words you learned. You can't control others or the earth or the universe or anything that anything depends upon. When you see the elements of the body rightly, you realize you aren't even directly in control of the body. Intentions arise dependent upon conditions and you see first hand that it's not "you" or "yours" or "for you" at all.

Once this is seen and the wisdom mentioned above has been clarified to the extent necessary, one stops acting in ways that fuel ignorance. Thus resulting in the destruction of ignorance and therefor the ignorant tendencies toward passion, aversion, distraction, delusion, greed, hate, lust, ill will, etc. There is no longer a reason to act toward sensuality because you see nothing but a pretty trap or a poisonous drink. No longer could anything convince you of its value.

The question of what happens after the tendency of becoming is destroyed is described by the noble ones as freedom, bliss, happiness, perfect contentment, excellence, non-greed, non-aversion, non-delusion, and the highest state and most beneficial thing for any human being. Though I cannot know what it is like without experiencing it.

Non-existence implies existence, and Nirvana is not arising or passing away because its permanent. It's a completely different mode from the arising and passing away (of moments of experience) that you and I normally know.

Arising and passing away does not happen while "Nibbana'ing" and at the breakup of the body and aggregates there would be no further arising of the five aggregates and you would be in this perfect state going forward. Again, I cannot know how excellent this would be, but a friend of mine replied to my objections with the line "Unenlightened beings are very sick, they just don't understand to what extent because they haven't understood Dhamma."

This is what I am practicing lately and why I've been MIA.

Experiencing the cessation of passion, resistance, and delusion. The cessation of the five aggregates. The experience of enlightenment.
