Was just watching White Lotus Season 2 last night. It triggered what felt like a lot of reflection for me.
Aubrey Plaza is lovely
Nooooooooo⌠no more daily woo woo!!!
Within each person lies a hidden treasure guarded by the doubts and fears of the mundane.
Embrace the winds of adventure and hoist the sails of courage.
Let go of the anchors.
Ignite the flames of freedom and watch them burn as we trek along the seas of life.
Venture off into the horizon of endless possibilities and never look back.
Rise above the tides of fate and move through those uncharted waters.
Discover the treasure of your true potential.
Unleash the pirate within.
I actually hate referring to it as âwoo wooâ.
I actually hate using the term âAlpha Maleâ and âBeta Maleâ.
Thatâs from my 1st or 2nd week on this forum lol.
Yet youâll see me use these terms a lot. One thing I learned is that itâs hard to speak English to someone who only understands Chinese. You have to learn to speak different languages and environments. Different belief systems. Iâm not congruent at all when I speak like that and itâs deliberate. You have to be able to put yourself, not in someone elseâs âshoesâ but in someone elseâs belief systems. I personally feel that itâs a completely different level of empathy and understanding.
After I manifest this wealth goal, Iâll maybe return to the woo woo lmao.
Women and their music manâŚ
Partner is obsessed with this song âRema - Calm Downâ, like I get it.
Shit got me thinking, like⌠why are there no songs where the men are being chased, being lusted after, loved (physically or mentally).
All these songs just pump up the womenâs ego, lol thereâs no balance.
No wonder all men do is chase women and simp over them with no self-worth.
Seems like women always have the upper hand and the frame is always unbalanced for men.
I donât know though, maybe Iâm just overthinking it⌠but has it always been like this?
I feel like the way relationships are depicted, itâs always the man being crazy about the women but you hardly ever see the women being crazy about the man. Somethingâs up lol and Iâm too lazy to explore this hahaha
Feel free to pitch in anyone, if you feel like you noticed something similar
All types of bullshit programming everywhere lol you have to question everything
I swear, every mainstream song I heard is like the guy talking about how he loves the woman, loves her body, chasing her, trying to get her attention, or just pumping up womenâs self-esteem. Or if woman make the song then they do the same shit, just pump themselves up.
Thereâs no songs that pump up guys like - at all. No songs where the women is trying to get the manâs attention or loving him.
When you look at the dating market, itâs like a reflection of that. PUA⌠men chasing women⌠thereâs no PUA for women lol. Women always qualifying. All in the TV shows and movies⌠women are almost perceived like prizes or something
Iâm starting to think that the simp type of beta male is like a manufactured product hahahah
Mainstream songs? Def doesnât exist. But that makes sense. Of course mainstream media is gonna try to pump up womenâs egos. The A&R execs are just following what marketing people have done for years. The seed that was already planted, theyâre just piggybacking off it. The women suffer too because now their entire self worth is associated with their beauty or attractiveness because thatâs saturated in the media. The constant unstable relationships dynamic is what generates the cash for the fat cats.
More indy artists though? Yeah some good ones out there
Nah there are some songs from girls about going after a guy
Taylor swift sings about being the âgirl on the bleachersâ
Adeleâs album was about getting dumped lol
I mean itâs just more mainstream because thereâs always been an assumption that guys âchaseâ
Nah in rap itâs always been the guy being the prize
Old school DMX, âBrenda, Felicia, StephanieâŚâ lol I forgot the song
Nasâ You Wonât See Me Tonight âmost wanted baby fatherâ
Itâs not mainstream but thereâs plenty of boss music
I donât think itâs manufactured, I think it genuinely appeals to most men
Boss music doesnât appeal to most men because it brings out their insecurities
And there arenât PUAs for women but there are plenty of dating coaches for women to help them lock a guy down
Lol. I think we both have different problems at different stages.
Good points lol
The song âDiorâ by Ruger is probably what you need.
Me get a girl inna me bed right now
She say, âShe no wan leaveâ
She tell me, âRuger, me, I want to spend the rest of mi life with youâ
Me say, âNo $hitâ
Then thereâs old school Biggie - One More Chance Remix
Theyâre literally begging him for another chance to be with him.
âI got that good love girl. You didnât know?â
But check out Dior. You wonât be disappointed
Edit: Thereâs also Champion Lover by Nina Sky. Itâs basically about the guy being a sex god. And who can forget Carly Simonâs Nobody Does It Better from 007âs The Spy Who Loved Me.
An Asian man walks into the Subliminal Club bar
An Asian man walks into the Subliminal Club bar.
Bartender: Hey there! What can I get for you?
Asian Man: Pass me one of those new Love Bombs, no ice.
Bartender: Got it. Coming right up.
(Bartender pours a Love Bomb and slides it over to the Asian man)
Bartender: So, what brings you out tonight?
Asian Man: Been having a rough day. I just needed to unwind and I heard that this was a good spot.
Bartender: Whatâs your stack?
Asian Man: 1 sub. Iâm running this new custom.
Bartender: Shit eh. How many cores?
Asian Man: 7.
Bartender: Yikes.
(Asian man takes a sip from his glass)
Asian Man: ZP Terminus Squared.
Bartender: Double yikes.
Bartender: You shouldâve listened to Saint and Fire. The recommendations are there for a reason.
Asian Man: Excuse me? Are you suggesting that Iâm an idiot?
Bartender: Uhh? No. Iâm just telling you what you shouldâve done.
Asian Man: Stop talking shit mate. Like I said⌠I had a rough day.
(Bartender sighs)
Bartender: Do you want to talk about it?
Asian Man: I sent Subliminal Club support a bunch of questions and they didnât answer them.
Bartender: What were your questions?
Asian Man: I asked them if I should quit my job and break up with my girlfriend.
Bartender: Their job isnât to give you life advice, mate.
(Asian Man slams his glass down on the table)
Asian Man: Look buddy, I donât like your tone. Stop trying to shit test me or Iâm going to call the moderators.
Bartender: Woah, woah. Easy there. I think you might be in reconciliation.
Asian Man: What did you say to me?!
Bartender: I said that I think you might be in reconciliation.
Asian Man: Recon what?
Bartender: Are you new to subliminals? One can experience mental distress when they run too many cores or subs. Itâs called reconciliation.
Asian Man: Say it one more time. I fucking dare you.
Bartender: RECONCILIATION.
Bartender: What are you deaf? Do I need to spell it out for you?
(Asian man furiously gets up from his seat)
Bartender: RE-CON-CILI-ATION.
(RVConsultant comes out of nowhere)
RVConsultant: Hold on everybody. Calm down. What seems to be the problem here?
Asian Man: RV, thank god youâre here. This bartender is a racist. Ban him immediately.
Bartender: Wait, what???
RVConsultant: How is he a racist?
Asian Man: He keeps calling me a silly asian.
People really need to use the block/ignore function on here.
I donât know if anyone has noticed but itâs always the same person/people that starts drama and everyone keeps feeding them.
Same cycle over and over again.
This is what happens when you give respect to people who donât deserve respect. This is the problem with internet forums.
All you need is a username and a profile picture and now youâre on the same level of respect as everyone else. These low self-esteem having ass internet dweebs start acting weird on here and people actually try to reason with them as if they are mature adults. Theyâre not, lol. Who are you talking to?
Do you know who you are going back and forth with?
I hate the internet I swear to god, lmao.
Treat weird people, like weird people. Start ignoring, blocking them and donât like their posts.
Donât give them energy and then theyâll go away.
Some people donât contribute anything, theyâre just here to leech and cause trouble. It follows them around.
You are probably right. I was also pondering for the first time to set an ignoring someone.
Done.
Lol, yeah I opened the forum today and saw 20+ posts in one of the threads.
All started by the person I blocked not too long ago, LMAO.
They have the highest rate of drama creation and they have like zero contribution.
Can you imagine how many people this individual has turned away from the forum?
From a long-term, overall point of view⌠I would be willing to bet that they are actually a liability, meaning the damage they do outweighs the value they provide as a customer.
Thereâs a reason why there arenât many women active here on the forum. I guarantee you one of the reasons is because of people like that.
Just weird âwtf am I reading, uh no thanksâ type of people.
Always talking about a whole bunch of nonsense. Trying to literally become like a dictator like Genghis Khan, like wtf even is that? Lmao.
I had to block them because they kept coming to my journal and posting bullshit.
They keep doing the same shit because everyone treats them inclusively and likes their posts. Theyâre not treated like the weird outcasts that they are. Internet forums hide all of that shit and allow them to get respect, of which I guarantee you they arenât getting any of⌠in real life.
I was like I would recommend some healing titles SE, DR, or LBFH, this could help, but why bother?
And you are right, more women here would be definitely interesting. To see the perspective not only from us men which is somehow one dimensional.
But you can not have everything, right? And on every forum are just some individuals who are very loud etc.
You can not ban them, because basically, they did not do anything that horrible but it is just an annoyance.
Ignoring them is ok, as not giving them any energy any attention.
See psychology in the nutshell
