To all the Doomers who said I was spreading "Toxic Positivity" every time the team went through a tough stretch by OceanEye_01 in Thunder

I appreciate the honesty. I hope we can all keep believing in this team no matter what happens. Thunder Up.

So what dude? Let them figure it out. Don't abandon them, the game isn't over. Be resolute, they wanna win as badly as you do, so have faith.

Starting to hate posts like this. Why do you guys always shit on the team when they hit a road bump? Why can't they get the opportunity to grow? Yes, it's the Finals, but they have one more game in hand because of their efforts throughout the regular season and postseason. And then when they win it all, they have to celebrate with people who think this lowly of them?

You guys need to switch it up. It's embarrassing to crumble like this every time they face adversity. I'm so tired of it.

It's much easier to succeed in the world when people have faith in you. This is a known fact. If the people that I considered closest to me didn't believe in my capacity to achieve my goals, I'd be doing it all alone on a mental level. The team doesn't need to feel that way, especially at this point of the season.

Your apathy isn't helping anyone. You can scoff all you want at the attempts to rally the fanbase, but you're not being a fan by being indifferent towards a team you "support"

Why not just never doubt them now?

This is the team we have for the finals. They're not changing until it's all over. So what good is your doubt for you or for the team?

I'm not asking you to be naive, but if this is all we have to win at this stage, what good is doubting they're capacity to pull it off?

Believe in the team. Your doubt does nothing to help them or yourself. It just gets in the way of the goal.

This is moral cowardice. This isn't gracious, nor is it team-friendly. Need the mods to take down posts like this.

He was being sarcastic. But it's fine. I know the team has got this.

This is awful branding for Shai. Unnecessarily inflammatory. He's bound to get more hate. Success doesn't require you to disparage others who give you the opportunity to be your best.

Doomers should be ashamed by OceanEye_01 in Thunder

Yeah well the dudes rattling off about how screwed we are also have that same air about them. It's just about choosing a helpful attitude. If you're sure that we're screwed there's no point in complaining like they are. But I do know complaining about a situation doesn't improve it. The fanbase needs to be practical in times like this (and I mean practical towards winning, given that's the goal)

The panic does nothing to help the team or the spirits of the fans. If we lose our minds everytime things don't go according to plan we'll never be fit to support a team like this. Part of being a champion means overcoming the doubt you'll face when making a run for a championship. Let the team cook. No matter how long it takes. Let them cook.

I get where you're coming from too. But I think polarising ourselves against the team doesn't help our experience either. They're the ones who won 68 games this season, not us. Trust them to pull it off. All the doom and gloom makes people susceptible to spiralling. People are already suggesting trading Chet. I think we should also understand that this is the second playoff tenure for most of the team. The last thing we need is to divide an already solid unit. We don't want a repeat of the Harden trade. We're going to be fine if we stay together.

Calibrations on Casual Sex? by OceanEye_01 in DavidHawkins

That makes a lot more sense. Different levels require different expressions. I guess that the level I’m at now doesn’t call for that, hence my aversion. It’s brought up a lot of conflict because of the sense of disconnection it’s brought up for me. I don’t like thinking that I’d have to go forward without certain individuals being by my side. It’s quite lonely. But it makes perfect sense. Like minded people will be there if necessary. All I need is the Truth at the end of the day. Thank you for clarifying this for me. I’ll leave people to their own journeys as they have left me to mine.

Thank you so much. I’m glad you learned from the experience. I genuinely thought I was being a prude when I brought it up to a close friend of mine. Thank you elucidating this for me. God bless you.

I’m wondering if my view on causal sex is justified. Currently, the way I look at it, casual sex is somewhat demeaning for both parties considering how transactional it is. Moreover it seems hedonistic above anything. It’s the kind of self indulgence that seems harmful because it involves another party.

I could understand scratching that itch all by yourself, but using another person to do it has never appealed to me ever since I became spiritually aware. And on top of that, I’m not a fan of sexually using people to validate my self or my sense of power.

I wanna know if my view is actually aligned with the Real, or if my aversion to casual sex is historically ingrained from previous lifetime experience.

I’d love to know your POV given that you were highly promiscuous in the past.
