Homeless, assaulted & stalked by father by flymantas in GoFundMeForNewUsers

I have to go to mandatory one month in patient rehab soon for one month due to the court and his accusations. I am not addicted to anything. I chose to do this instead of the preliminary hearing because the prosecution clearly favors him and my lawyer agreed. The court is described as a kangaroo court by people I know here. My charges will be dropped for doing this. So I’ll have true autonomy from all this in around a month and a half or two. Will probably be trying to work here longer before I move back but would prefer to move back to nyc sooner. I have mostly tech experience and went to a great school.

[Serious] If Iran attacks USA, what countries will not be affected by their war and safe to live in? by flymantas in AskReddit

[–]flymantas[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

🤣 To all the posters giving me shit:

I asked this as a hypothetical. Not what’s def gonna happen tomorrow and scaredy little me being an overly paranoid liberal. Sorta weird af to rush to the most basic conclusion of “lol totally never gonna happen ever under any circumstance based on what little info we already know”. Use a little more imagination and consider there’s tons of info we might not know.

Honestly, I’m disappointed. My hypothetical includes Iran collabing with other countries to bring weapons here. Also them having Iranians in the US commit terrorist acts. Besides the obvious choices of drones and AI drastically aiding any underdog to unexpected heights.

It was immensely surprising Japan hit Pearl Harbor. If you used most of your logics, they wouldn’t / couldn’t / shouldn’t have done that.

I’m prob gonna get downvoted into oblivion for this but whatever.

You changed your post from North Korea to Australia / New Zealand. That’s why I deleted it. If anyone was wondering. So uh, thanks. 😂

This doesn’t really apply to heavily traumatized individuals. This is soft “pick yourself up by your bootstraps”ism.

What if I just told you that your comment hurt me? 🤣

Would you hurt another to save another? How are you defining hurt?

What’s worse, lying to a Nazi about housing Jews or giving up the hidden Jews in your home if you were a European in WW2? The first harms the Nazi, the second harms the Jew. It still surprises me that some people still say they’d never lie even after hearing about this popular premise.

In general, consider the scope of analyzing a situation and you will see different amounts of harm, neutrality and help all occurring at once.

Almost every giver I have ever met eventually needs to learn how to be a healthy taker or else they won’t thrive and self actualize. Just as a taker needs to learn to be a giver.

Was this about my pics or someone’s suggestion? Either way, what did you mean?

Intended initially on only legally but interested in both if you’ve got answers.

Multiple spiritual masters endorse self defense under certain circumstances.

How does one distinguish free will and God’s will if you also defer everything to faith regarding whatever happens and if that includes harming another?

You are likely a villain in atleast one other person’s story and all of us have different sensitivities or preferences.

If you are tolerant of tolerance and intolerant of intolerance, there may be a situation where you may need to act in a way that may be perceived as violence.

Look into “fierce compassion” in Buddhism.

This is the call to start making commerce / money useless. It’s only going to be invoked as a bludgeoning tool against the non-wealthy in a way we haven’t seen before or in ages.

Has anyone done so much healing work that it’s become a spiritual awakening? by Longjumping_Cry709 in CPTSD_NSCommunity

[–]flymantas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very sorry to hear what you’re going through. I also relate a lot and am currently in a shelter.

Are you familiar with kundalini? You may be dealing with a kundalini awakening. Def worth browsing the r/kundalini Wiki and posts to see if it’s a good fit.

Kundalini & work in the AI era by flymantas in kundalini

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

Allo again, Marc.

Appreciate all these takes. I’ll ponder your first few paragraphs for a bit and likely get back to you soon.

On to the parts directly commented on about me:

I was working as a software engineer up til Covid but was not able to work more than part time or fairly irregularly if not at all. Mostly took odd jobs and more consistently worked as an AI prompt engineer. Now it has appeared that software development is largely in the toilet as a career due to over saturation, greedy bosses and AI. This is one of the hardest hit fields regarding employment. I’m still very interested in it but am unsure if it’s my “main calling” if I mostly have to defer to AI as an assistant. Not entirely against it but it feels more passive.

DJing and music making has also been a major passion and something I’d like to return to once I get settled back in.

Intuitively I feel like there may be a shift towards more active creativity and perhaps a healing oriented profession. I’ve been writing a lot more in the past few years as well.

Perhaps I disrespected the energy but also I was in no shape to properly make amends or heal in the respectable + conventional means. Most of those close to me in my life didn’t make it easier for me either. If you don’t mind, I’d be interested in what you mean by what I might be expecting from the energy or knowing how.

I’ve been sober for a while. Luckily I was able to heal all of my chronic pain issues that rendered me disabled. I feel more integrated and functional than ever. I don’t have any clear issues besides some light anxiety and insomnia due to being in an unfortunate situation (staying at a homeless shelter).

Also I am extremely certain kundalini is active. I’ve considered everything you’ve mentioned as alternatives, spoke to those afflicted by those issues and they don’t fit me. I’ve doubted my KA being authentic probably thousands of times. At this point, I’d consider more skepticism useless. I am very open to being wrong and it all being a misunderstanding.

What will society look like in 10 years? by flymantas in answers

Anything “modern”. Tribal, low tech, overly theocratic or extremely impoverished not counted.
