And how the hell is the law of non-contradiction bullshit?

I am not. I started being more honest with myself which resulted in being more honest in the comment sections and with others in general. So far, it feels great.

Of course Well, it is a mystery for me too because you would think that if I am annoyed by them I must at least have some experiences with them or broines in general but I don't...in my country people have never heard about the "MyLittlePony" trend nor bronies, I myself know only a few things because I was curious at some point. But as I said I have no idea about this either, all I can say is that somehow my mind expects to see some points of view I despise some ridiculous advice and generally something that will make me curse the monitor or make weird facial expressions. Don't worry too much about it thou, I am not completely sane either so it makes sense that I have some weird reactions to some things.

I have a similar problem but with the profile user's avatars, I don't know why but sometimes it completely influences the way I read that persons' post. For example I'm extremely annoyed by MyLittlePony avatars such as Anuojat's and Rainbow Jam's and sometimes I feel hatred towards them even though they make good and insightful replies. Your avatar is neutral to me so won't influence the way I read your posts. On the other hand there are avatars that make me feel admiration and sympathy towards that person, one example that comes to mind is dsayers.

I would give my reputation point to Kevin. I don't know much about him but whenever I had a problem and messaged him he always responded, and his responses were not some 2 line hasty ass replies, he took his time and made sure he understood my problem and I know that he will help members of this forums if they ask him. Also his posts on this forum are great too, I learned a lot and had a lot of things clarified and didn't need to start myself a lot of threads. He also developed the platform by which the podcasts are now much easier to find and listen too. I wasn't here for a while but hadn't it been for Kevin my account would have been deleted some time ago. Thank you, Kevin.

I think almost all my posts which were downvoted were rightfully so...However on the post I got the most dislikes (-9) I cannot see for the life of me why that post warranted it. Maybe you could help me sort it out :https://board.freedomainradio.com/topic/42648-since-all-the-books-podcasts-and-videos-are-already-free/

You deserve all your reputation points.

Toți plecați ;(

Sorry for the late response It was surprising for me to read that...I don't read the comments to often but I must say they are always more biased than the Sandamns' what I like about him is that he tries his best not to let his biases create his view of women, he keeps it as objective as he cans, thou I'd be interested to know what you meant by "fuck around with random girls who had kids".

Most of the people in the YT's comment section of that video deserve to be shoot in the mouth.

Hint: next time you start a post like this you'd better give us a link.

Not trying to be mean...just genuinely surprised; how can you still be recovering given that you've been listening for quite a few years?

Technically they are not free because I cant have them without donating.

What about the god of atheists?

Any living being owns itself because it is the only entity that can make its body function. Animals don't have the capacity for reason so they are not subject to morality (nor do babies). Now dsayers would say that though babies don't have the capacity for reason they do have the potential for acquiring that capacity. The problem is that for most of our history we did not have this capacity but because of evolution we had the potential for becoming reasoning creatures, how do we know that this is not the case with the rest of the species?

Relevant to this topic Stefan said that he strives to give everyone he meets for the first time 50% credibility for default regardless of the person's appearance. Now he said that this can go down in a fraction of a second if he senses red flags.

Are you saying "Super disappointing" on every comment on purpose?

I am jealous of you.

Do you mean the call you had with Stef? Could you reference me to it? By the way a response to my questions would be greatly appreciated.

That's what I will do thank you...though I am not a native speaker so there are certain words and expressions I won't understand at a low volume.

Most people around here must be avid podcast listeners so I bet you are using headphones a lot...so am I, but I have been wondering under what circumstances listening to headphones causes irreversible hearing damage. From my research I have found that any sound louder than 70db might cause hearing damage if you are exposed to it for too long of a time. 1.My question is how can I know how loud the volume on my phone is? 2.Do headphones still affect your hearing regardless of the volume at which you are listening? 3.If not I don't understand the 60:60 rule("As a rule of thumb, you should only use MP3 devices at levels up to 60% of maximum volume for a total of 60 minutes a day," says Dr. Foy. "The louder the volume, the shorter your duration should be. At maximum volume, you should listen for only about five minutes a day.") The problem is that MP3 play at maximum of 100-110db. so 60% would mean approx 60 db which from what I've seen is not considered a damaging volume (Normal talking is 40 dB to 60 dB) so why then only 60 minutes a DAY?? And this rule seem to contradict this : At 95 dB, damage will occur after four hours of exposure per day. At 100 dB, damage will occur after two hours of exposure per day. At 105 dB, damage will occur after one hour of exposure per day. At 110 dB, damage will occur after 30 minutes of exposure per day. At 115 dB, damage will occur after 15 minutes of exposure per day. At 120-plus dB, damage occurs almost immediately. It doesn't make any sense to me guys...

That I don't know...and that is because every single one of these instances is triggered by things that don't seem to have any correlation between them, for example the one on 22 May 2014 was ignited while listening to a call-in-show (the caller was a gay autistic man if you remember that call ) another one was triggered by the thought of having to go on holiday this summer and the most recent one flicked after going on a trip with 2 guys I hate.

I am much better now, thank you for asking. I think that this "episode" is the last piece of evidence I needed to identify a meaningful pattern. It seems that every once in a while I have this kinds of intense mental disturbances that always last the exact same period time, the obsessions are the same, I have exactly the same mental dialogue and this state follows the EXACT same bell curve of intensity. It's like a roll-coaster with a single great peak. They always last 4 days and the peak is on the 2nd day at night and it lasts 6-9 hours of feeling as described in the opening of this thread (I started this thread within that 6-9 hours of hell) : "I’m obsessed with the thought of being stupid. I have so much fog in my brain…it is quite a recent thing though…I usually have to battle with demonizing obsession but this one I feel is out of the ordinary league. Every thought that enters my mind at the moment of writing this is without finality…it begins then just vanishes, I can’t stay focused on anything more than a couple of seconds. I feel abandoned by my every mental ability, I am empty-headed and incoherent…numb. I feel no drive for anything at all. My internal dialogue is non-exsistent, a predatory depression took control over my body and my mind. I feel helplessness and there is nothing I can think of that would take me out of this dark emotional state. " More interestingly this is how I described a similar episode on 22 May 2014 :"My body is tense, my mind goes in circles, I am hyperactive (feel the need to walk all the time, I make sudden weird body movements at fast speed) also I cannot focus at all, even writing this post took me more than 30 minutes. Strange thoughts spring in my head out of the blue, and the most unsettling part for me is that I cannot think clearly, I'm generally very good at mental math and having arguments in my head, and analyzing social situations, now it's like I just drink 5 cup of coffees in a row, my mind is fogging a lot. Something in the back of my mind is bothering me and I simply don't know what it is, and I don't see any connection between all that I said, I feel helpless and I can't stand listening to music anymore, I'm scared." Strikingly similar, huh? And these are only 2 "episodes" I have about 5-6 of these every year.
