Ate 12 pieces of bacon and did one loop of QL s2
For me it’s the other way round. In the past, I didn’t enforce my boundaries. Now with Emperor, I can’t let that happen.
But what made rather anxious now leaves me cold.
I wasn’t talking about both boundaries, if someone cross my boundaries than yes, Emperor made it easier to tell them to shut the fuck up
But i was talking about something else, getting angry at electronics that suddenly with no reason stops to work, getting into emotional arguments about stuff that doesn’t matter like politics and getting into emotional arguments about stuff that does matter to me, like my carnivore diet being healthy, but not in a way to inform a person but in a way to try and prove my self right
Now when something doesn’t work, i breath deeply and fix it
When someone says something about politics or about the war which i think is wrong, i may start a rational discussion with him, but not an emotion argument and sometimes o won’t engage at all
When someone tells me that my carnivore diet will give me a heart attack, instead of trying to prove him im right i just shrug it off and say “than come to my funeral”
I’ll bring roses if that’s ok
Nah fuck those plants, bring some steaks
Some results i noticed after the first loop of QL s2:
My speech patterns has became more sophisticated and more frequently i find my self using words of higher language
Unexpected results, i feel the love to my gf much more than before, if before i only felt it a little in my mind and heart, now i feel the love in my entire body and in a stronger intensity, i believe it’s due to the nervous system improvement
2 Scary dreams:
In the first dream, i wrote about weird sexual kinks in the forum (I don’t even remember what exactly) and somehow all of my friends read it all, they didn’t laugh at me, but i felt shame and embarrassment
The second dream, much scarier, i was a soldier again, i was fighting in a city in you know where (I can’t say here because it’s politically charged), in my dream i was flooded with adrenaline, looking for terrorists to kill, all of my friends were running and killing terrorists and only i could not find a single one, i was running in the city and in tall buildings and suddenly i feel someone grab me from behind and drops me to the floor, than before he starts beating me i wake up in terror
What are you using QL to do? Is there any goals beyond becoming smarter / more mentally limitless?
I know from what I’ve seen you post you seem less cerebral and more visceral in your typical approach to things, so I’m curious to compare how your QL ride compares to my own. How do you find the interaction between the two modalities of being?
Im looking for an overall cognitive enhancement, i want to have the most extraordinary brain i can have and maximize everything it can do
Im sorry but im not familiar with those terms, can you explain them to me?
Edit: visceral is acting with Instinct and emotion and cerebral is acting from the brain?
Exactly. As in, you made a lot of posts on the Hero thread and KB among others talking about your training in self defence/fighting. This is what I mean by visceral. This is communication between your brain and your body. As opposed to the purely cerebral cogitation involved in doing something like writing a program to analyse data, like I’m doing.
This sort of distinction usually evolves organically when you’re very young; for me, it occurred in primary school where a guy I knew challenged me to a fight on the playground, got me in a head spin and dumped me on my head. Ironically the guy ended up being one of my best friends in high school after the fact.
The type of brain activity you undertake when you’re fighting or doing physical activity that needs fast motor coordination is different to the type when you’re thinking calmly about how to come up with a callback system in a program, or when you’re thinking about the way data structures fit together.
I’m curious how well you’ve found yourself able to switch between the two modes particularly, and how you feel when you’re operating in each. I suspect QL is helping with the switching process.
You are correct, i am and was always more visceral, i tend to live through my senses and emotions, be more in my body, react with instinct most of the time
QL is giving me the ability to become more cerebral, i notice this the most when i react to things differently than i used to before QL and now i actually introspect more on the way i used to react to those certain things
I react in a more “think about the future way, asses if this is important to you enough right now and what will you lose or gain by reacting how you feel like you want to react”
Before QL i used to react with emotion “this makes me angry so im gonna beat him” or “this makes me scared so im either going to avoid it or charge through it” etc
Now i can, if i want, to think in a more rational way, i can still be very visceral if i want too
Bro have a whole cow in his fridge
Btw i know him, he was the first carnivore i knew
Ate some carbs yesterday, woke up feeling sick today stayed home
Did one loop of G:M and one loop of PCC and ate 6 eggs and 6 pieces of bacon
My ears hurt from talking all day on the shitty phone at work, i want to find a different job, losing my hearing is not worth the money i earn
Heresy!!!
Recon
Recon? Yes
So the stack is QL + Mogul + PCC until Ascended Mogul’s upgrade is released?
Yes, but i really miss the alphaness of ascension
same, I INSTANTLY noticed that running Mogul. Within a day or two I thought “wow I love this but it needs alpha”
What about replacing PCC with Ascension until AM comes out?
EDIT: Amazingly, even the small amount of status/alpha scripting from NR was enough to satisfy that for me. @AnswerGroup this might be good feedback to take into consideration for Mogul. I’ve noticed the sales guys, az and myself, maybe niles too idk, saying it’s OK for sales but nothing special, and needing that alpha bit. But now general comments that the lack of alpha/status is instantly noticeable.
Is there a gender-neutral relationship-to-self booster, maybe even similar to genesis, that could be enhanced in Mogul slightly more?
Right now the current recommendation is “Run Ascended Mogul” if that’s what you’re looking for… but the fact that even the “small” amount of status scripting in Nouveau RICH (IIRC that’s what saint said) is enough to completely satisfy that itch for me suggests that maybe the status scripting in Mogul doesn’t need to be at an ascension level in order to satisfy the need/urge.
Also… for PURE wealth scripting, there’s RICH, EOG, etc., and considering being rich and wealthy is a lifestyle not just a task, there’s maybe some good justification for amplifying the social/status/personal scripting in Mogul slightly to make it a neutral but powerful “Rich Person” archetype, compared to Ascended Mogul being the “Rich Alpha” archetype
I thought about it, do you think the alphaness of ascension is more important than the social skills of pcc? Or maybe ot doesn’t really matter because i can add pcc when AM os updated which will probably happen soon anyway
