It seems you are over-generalizing. Maybe people are not like you. > People will absolutely leave your company if they think they can get paid more elsewhere. Maybe you will. Maybe they won't. Everyone has his own bar for "enou

I think both you and the guy you replied to are right. It is just 2 aspects of life. What matters is how do we want to live life ? Do you want to accept that everything is pre-decided, and that we are puppets to our own biases, or do we wan

To me, this simply shows how inequal the american society has become, and how the stock market amplifies it. You can have an impact on the real economy with stocks. Look at what happened with GameStop. But that impact is done and decided by

In my experience, it helped me be better comfortable around others. Both having it easier to send good energy to people I liked, and not caring so much about being judged by others (less useless self-deprecation).

But everything else is _never_ the same. Once you're paid more, you move into a bigger house, have more needs, and without knowing it you're just as tight on money as you were before. But then you just have more stress at work, an

LSD alone does not create any violence, it does not bring any evil into your mind from the outside. It mostly shows things that usually stay in the unconscious part of our mind. It is more like a lens than a seed. Of course Barely being abl

Honestly, as someone who took that kind of substances, this is not terrifying. This is actually going out of denial, and really just seeing ourselves just the way we are. Agreed, we have a pretty fucked up side of us, but also a true potent
