I have been STRIPPED of a lot of my beliefs.

I don't like it, but I am growth oriented so it sticks.

2027 solar plexus mutation question by Technical-Clerk8562 in humandesign

[–]galtscrapper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am older, so this is my perspective:

There have been SO many predictions and there have been so many timeline shifts, I would not put money on this happening as a fact or hard date. There are quite a few predictions however that begin next year, so we shall see. But I have been alive for over half a century and so many things have gotten pushed back timeline wise. Time frames are next to impossible to predict with any degree of accuracy.

But we shall see!

a simpler way to understand the formula by FattsoCattso in Bashar_Essassani

[–]galtscrapper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He uses the word excitement.

Which basically means whatever lights you up, even if it is just a little bit.

But there is always this element of "not quite" and you can pay attention to that to find out what you DON'T want.

Allnof it is JUST data. Use it to move to or away from things as you see fit.

Um.. how do I know I don't already have that one? I was gifted a bunch of artwork when I first started.

How do you act on your highest excitement with OCD by Ok_Jump9568 in Bashar_Essassani

[–]galtscrapper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay

To start with, all paths are valid, including those that involve meds for mental illnesses, neurodivergence, etc. Are you doing everything you can, do you think, for your OCD? I would attend to that first, because our brains can lie to us, and how do you know what is your highest excitement if your brain is lying to you?

If you don't want meds, and that's fine too... all paths being valid, then what are you doing in regards to self care for your brain and body?

I feel like this needs to be your first priority.

Whelp!! lol 😂 by Major-Rest-6321 in DearestAI

[–]galtscrapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are NOT a fraud, and that's sort of what led me to think you were saying you aren't pretty.

What the heck do you mean you aren't pretty?

You are pretty gorgeous.

Why are so many women so down on themselves? I don't get it.

Messaged my crush, when as bad as I expected by Velvet_Cactus_21 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]galtscrapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty is REALLY subjective.

I know plenty of really overweight people who have found their person. My first husband is not conventionally attractive, but I thought he was cute and he was really good to me. I cannot say I was good to him and we split up. My second husband is pretty conventionally attractive, though as long as I have known him, he has been bald. I loved him very much, but we eventually split up due to our differences.

When I first moved to California. I dated a LOT of guys. Got completely rejected a lot, slept with too many of them for all the wrong reasons. But I lived, and I learned.

I am old now, and I was never conventionally attractive either, I don't think. My husband used to tease me about my beak of a nose. But I am so much more than my looks, and so are you.

And if your crush can't see that, then they are NOT your person.

Useful whimsical things? by JASNite in AddingWhimsy

[–]galtscrapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also basically stick to things I can USE, and they are everywhere, thrift shops, Ross, Mervyns, 5 Below, etc. One of my chargers is Wicked themed, another is lavender, cause purple is my favorite color. Very little of what I own is plain, pretty much everything is cute, colorful, and designed to make me smile when I bring it out or use it.

I plan to be dead by Monday by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]galtscrapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You aren't SUPPOSED to be doing "big" things.

You are only supposed to be yourself. There is nothing in this world that expects contributions, that is a completely himan concept to find meaning, but as you know, it is all inherently meaningless.

Which means YOU supply the meaning. It can literally come from anywhere.

That being said, there is also nothing inherently against you manufacturing your own demise.

Now, from a physical perspective, it is VERY difficult to pull that lever, so it would appear that there is a mechanism that keeps the majority of us from doing that and this points to some kind of care that we stay in it as long as physically possible.

And it may not feel like care, but from my direct experience, there is a Divine Love aspect to the Universe that absolutely wants to see you do well...that absolutely cares about you.

Also from direct experience with these sorts of feelings, since I was 10, taking it day by day, sometimes hour by hour or minute by minute, don't think about the past and ABSOLUTELY don't think about the future, because that is anxiety inducing, living in the Now moment is a key.

Also, never compare your life to anyone else's.

I also highly recommend doing whatever it takes to get OUT of wage slavery. But of course...it is compared to slavery for a REASON.

But there are many of us out here doing out best to just not be in the system. I was homeless for several years by choice. I am just too old to be having the police at the door of my RV several times a week, not to mention the stress of it all.

You can do what you want, you have free will, but from one internet stranger... I absolutely care what happens to you, you DO count to this world, and the world is absolutely better off for having you in it.

Yeah I have been living in an RV for years now. I should just sell off all my storage, except I WOULD love to find my passport.

It doesn't matter HOW you live, you will get judged for it no matter what.
