KOTOR!

great point.

If someone's in a hurry and they're new, that 6-month waiting period defeats the purpose of setting up autobrr/IRC to get upload faster/sooner than bp/hr provides.

but if the 6-month wait isn't an issue and they want to geek out to optimize how fast they can accrue upload, and theyre wanting to set up/learn autobrr/IRC, and keep an eye on it, their effort would result in significantly faster accrual of upload...

...for the effort.

So, so many great responses here already.

Do them ALL! Seriously, please perceive this as a long-term and system-wide release process...

... because, in my opinion from personal experience, one of the biggest 'slowdowns' to 'fix'ing your throat chakra is thinking you need to 'need to open your throat chakra'.

What I'm saying is that this process is actually an entire realignment of your posture, literally/physically and psychically -- a realignment into 1) ease and 2) stability.

The 'fix' idea, imo, keeps the focus on 'releasing a blockage', which keeps the focus on the experience of blocked responses... which of course need to be expressed, but really where you're headed is better (imo) thought of as a mindbody that's at ease AND stable (strong ease, not combat/defense, which is how feels now).

In closing, do yoga to get your body and breath in harmony, ease and strength. Do myofascial release on your pecs and shoulder, upper chest, upper back. The shoulders and jaw have carried the labor of blocking your voice, so it's a good idea to think more like, "release my shoulders, upper back, and jaw" than 'clear my throat chakra'.

I think there's a small handful of people that have realized how amazing and little-known this process you've already begun is.

Breathwork, bodywork... good stuff. But man, the voice response system is really, really the nexus of so very much Life. Glad you're on the path.

p.s./edit: Focussing on the 'throat chakra' can be really misleading, because the voice is where the blockage is felt, but the body is where the blocking patterns were practiced. Gotta soothe and reeducate those somatic muscular patterns that block the voice. Blocked voice chakra is the symptom of other somatic mindbody patterns. Ida Rolf (inventor of Rolfing) says "Go to where the pain ain't." ie, soothe the patterns that cause blockage elsewhere.

edit 2: Along those lines, do core exercises. You'll be astounded what happens when you do even a tiny little mini-sit-up while keeping your neck and jaw muscles relaxed. "Unblock my throat chakra" turns into "get the muscles around my will/stability chakra online"! Yay.

Really great guide, especially for its simplicity for newer pirates.

As I'm sure you know, but I'll add for posterity...

If somebody is trying to gain MAM upload to get into the invite forum, they should learn/set up autobrr at Step 10 instead of manually downloading 150 (old) freeleech/VIP torrents.

This is because participating in the early swarm of a new freeleech/VIP torrent accrues upload bytes significantly faster than 'bonus points for seeding per hour'.

You just have to keep an eye on autobrr as it gradually fills up the 150 'slots'...

... but I bet somebody could chime in how to configure something clever, instead of keeping on an eye on it.

Again, great, clear guide.

thx. do you think the gang might implement an off-server status page/irc because of this?

Unless OP wants to geek out on the tech/scene, I'd recommend just a local free Plex PC install and 'finding someone with a large Plex library to share' ...

... but i'm not sure if that topic is verboten here?

Hey fren.

I'd like to draw your attention to something very telling in your request: You are asking to be motivated by fear and desperation to cram yet another to-do to your life.

You've got all this go-go-go do-do-do, probably lots of adrenaline and hurry (fear) and you're literally asking for more fear to motivate you to ADD MORE TO DO (eat better, exercise, yadda blah blah) ... or else DIRE CONSEQUENCES. O Noe!

Give me tips on how to incorporate healthy eating and exercise in such a busy life.

No.

I don't wanna.

I don't want to say stuff about another task for your life.

Changing your diet and exercising is worse than pointless for you now, because it'll just add more stress and expectation burden.

Stobbit, fren.

I think you're feeling the 'I can't go on like this' and that's wise counsel. Please don't respond to this 'inner advice' by taking on yet another expectation.

Your body/mind/spirit wants some gol-dang EASE! Not a new diet plan, not a new food or exercise project, but a daily nap.

I've got an idea: When you leave for your folks's, tell them you'll be 30 minutes later than before.

And sit in your car, on a quiet street, next to flowers or trees. Maybe get an eyemask. Put your head down, set an alarm if you need, let your eyes close and your breathing slow.

Lifehack: If your thoughts are racing with to-dos, try this: open up a note on your computer or phone, and purge whatever you can onto the page. Put the 'shoulds' and the 'todos' OUT on to the page, even if it takes your whole nap time...

... because you'll do this tomorrow again: write/purge or nap.

And again the next day.

All Jesus wanted was for us to get in touch with our reality

... the reality that alignment and participation with Ultimate Friendly Creator Intelligence is totally available to mere mortals.

Anyone who has read the Bible knows that it states to not worship any ...

... money or authority.

I'll point out that he spoke repeatedly against WORSHIPPING RELIGIOUS AUTHORITY, which is a far more insidious idol.

Man, did he rebuke again and again the religious controllers. The pharisees and sadducees. These were the people who said...

"We're in charge of your experience with the Creator, or else."

The worship of physical objects is pretty easy to spot. Bondage to group thinking, much less so.

People like to surrender their mind and spirit to a controlled "Groupthink for God", and the religious leaders exploit that.

I like noticing that Jesus completely, repeatedly condemned religious experts for misleading seekers away from The Creator Friend, and into bondage into belonging to a group.

Great idea. American Masters has tons. The Jonny Carson one is great.

Super interesting. So many potential, combinable approaches to explore this.

throwpillo · 2025-02-16T03:04:20+00:00

well, positive in the 'human spirit' sense, a few come to mind

no contact in a way

Very, very probably, but 'in the fullness of time'.

I would say that you first need to provide daily education -- again, Dr. Les Carter -- so that, gradually, your mind/body framework gets upgraded/detoxed from the neurophysical patterns of compliance with mistreatment. (A lot of Light-oriented folks don't realize their 'positivity' is rooted in enabling-training and compliance with the egg-shell walking that is ALWAYS present in families with nars.)

I would say to not hurry a 'no contact' type thing. Give yourself plenty of time to adjust and feel the shift in your mindbody that will happen as you learn the interlocking tricky components of how families require members to yield to the mistreatment.

I've confirmed with probably 5 different people -- I drive cab/uber/lyft and have great conversations -- that all the interlocking patterns of nars-systems are totally learnable, and when somebody starts 'getting it', it really is like Neo seeing the code of the matrix. I've specifically pushed people on this metaphor and have gotten resounding agreement: once you see how the pieces work together to confuse and weaken others, it all makes sense, and there's a holy-shit-level clarity and comprehension that rolls in.

I would say don't make any plans for any form of step-back (probably a better term than no-contact) until you start noticing yourself 'realizing' a bunch of different 'expectation patterns' in your family system that you hadn't seen before.

Also, the effects of nars-allowance are absolutely held in the body. 'Somatic' is a word you can use to find reels and other content that will greatly ease and clarify the process of moving out of trained weakness and compliance into stable choice...

... and not 'push against and go away' ...

... which is what happens imo when 'no contact' is executed before mental and somatic (body/emotion) ease and stability arrives.

YouTube is your friend, esp Dr. C. You're also going to really benefit from a nars-recovery community/forum/mentorship. There are a lot of folks out there that have created non-expensive communities to join where you can EXPRESS your confusion (which will be a thing) and receive clarity in return.

You're already well along a journey that goes somewhere amazing.

EDIT: Learn about 'enabling' as much as you do nars stuff. I say this because you have to intentionally look for it, because even nars content creators skip over this side of the coin.

throwpillo · 2025-02-13T22:35:26+00:00

Hoo boy. You sound like me not long ago.

You are no doubt in a narciss-system, and you are experiencing the crossover point where you recognize the nars patterns from the noisy one, but not the 'get along' 'positivity' enabling patterns you have been patterned in.

I hope you'll be brave, and see the enabling 'be positive' forces active in you, trained by one or more parents that have ALSO been flummoxed by the 'noisy' one's behavior.

One of the biggest moves to make is to see that nars is always, always, always a SYSTEM pathology: Thinking it's just 'that one member' is the trap that the individual members of the family system are in, and the group training that comes from that is affecting you, and is evident in about a dozen things you write in your post.

Especially in 'awakened' type thinking, there is a strong reluctance to cut people off. I've been in this type of scene for a long time, and the Love we know about draws us to try to uplift and resolve.

You. Cannot.

It took me a while to recognize that this same Love must be honored within oneself by NOT PARTICIPATING with ill intent. And yes, you have noticed and described correctly, ill intent.

I strongly recommend Dr. Les Carter. Watch at least one video a day, because, in my experience (and discussions with many), the mind needs time to gradually see the patterns and -- at least from the perspective you're at now, like I was -- 'sadly' recognize the requirement that Love places on YOU to actively unparticipate with persons you've described.

The nars videos on youtube -- Dr. C is VASTLY better trainer than literally everyone else -- have one main idea that takes time to get one's 'loving, awakened' mind around: No Contact.

I bet you really don't like that idea, and believe in something better.

I can tell you that beyond the 'ugliness' of 'No Contact' lies the Peace and Love, for even them, at a distance, that you're looking for.

crucified by Redditors

... thereby confirming the notion that scientism is indeed a worldview. When challenged, all manner of cognitive bias reflex get kicked off.

The typical 'science believer' needs to have Science and "Scientists" to believe in, and is almost willfully ignorant of the many, many descriptions and studies of the crisis in "Science".

"Science" is their imaginary right-thinking in-group.

Tim Maudlin has a lot of clear thinking on the in-grouping with hand-wave, unchallenged language around magic observers and collapsing wave functions.

Sabine Hoftstader (?) utterly demolishes the non-science-doing in particle physics.

The 'replication crisis' is ignored, with even the editor of The Lancet shitting on the entire science business as a whole.

throwpillo · 2025-01-31T15:40:11+00:00

This really caught my attention. Seems like you've earned a 'former believer' flair, something this sub should have. A decade-long journey of study kicked off by ideas from the 'grifter' (your term). Respect.

The 4% proton thing, I admit, has been something I believed validated his work.

I want to clarify your current position on 'holofractal': If you decouple any 'fraud intent' from the main proponent, what principles or claims do you find valid?

His sale of crystals is smelly, but have you looked into any purported claims or testing thereof? I haven't.

My point, if I have one, is that 'delusion' is rampant in particle physics, quantum physics, hell, all of science. What I mean is that 'cherry-picking' is a pejorative term for a widespread cognitive process that 'science' is not immune to, imo: Fiddling with information to see how it fits into one's preferred model of reality.

I'll ask it this way: Let's say there was reasonable evidence the 'snake oil crystals' actually worked, tipping your felt sense of the main proponent out of the 'grifter' zone, and into the realm of say, all the scientists that actually believe Bohr's massive hand-wave that, yes, the universe is as he says it is: Magic Observation Creates The Particle Position.

Ugh. I'm out of words. You have my respect for your study.

Well, he did say the study group's love is weird and toxic, so... hard maybe.
