… you just say whatever comes to mind to be antagonistic don’t you? You agreed with me but yet you’re somehow still arguing. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Ah! So you actually do agree with my original comment. That people get too hung up on labels and that they aren’t a permanent thing. 👍 why were you so keen on arguing then?

BTW, science is keen on unchanging labels. Nothing can become something else until something happens to it and we know exactly what it is that it became. Imagine treating a person like that. Oh yes you were abused by your father as a child then you must be this and we’ll lock you up just incase you’ll do that. You have the genes for it after all.

So… you’re saying that by placing the label alcoholic on yourself is beneficial? Being stuck in the rut that you’ll always be an alcoholic never thinking that the label recovering alcoholic is better suited? That’s what I was originally talking about with placing labels on yourself. Don’t define and limit yourself with a label but go beyond its potential. Take the label “homeless person”, “I’ll always be a homeless person. Life will never get any better.” There’s more to you than a homeless person. That label doesn’t define you. Sure, there should be programs to help people who are homeless get jobs but. A person who’s stuck the label homeless person on themselves and derives their identity from being a homeless person will never be anything else or anything more. No matter the amount of money or programs that you try to put them through.

I disagree. Labels are only intended to separate people. By putting people in a box you limit their capabilities. For example, I was given the label of ADHD as a kid. This made my parents treat me differently and expect less from me. Instead of spending the time and energy that they did for my sister they pretty much just ignored me and didn’t care what I did.
Later, I got a job and put myself through college I got 0 support from my parents. But because I was a white male with average grades I couldn’t get a single grant. My parents made too much money even though they wouldn’t spend a dime on their failed mentally disabled child. So tell me which label is “freeing”?
ADHD, White, Male, mentally disabled, average student.
See I’ve spent my whole life proving that I was better than my labels. I’ve got my college diploma, I’m not a racist bigot, I treat women with respect, I’m smart even though I was told my whole life to just be satisfied with my labels.
I’m better than those stupid things. No one can define me. I define me. I say what I’m capable of. Not some stupid teacher who had me hopped up on controlled substances my whole life. Certainly not my parents who only discouraged me from improving myself.

Hmmm isn’t it easier to force people to fit a role with labels? If you’re ‘a’ then you must do and act like ‘x’ otherwise you’re ‘b’ and must act like ‘y’. If you’re someone who wants to act somewhere between x and y then what are you? When you “identify” as ‘a’ or ‘b’ then you’re actually restricting your freedom subconsciously. You have to then say I’m no-longer ‘a’ but ‘b’ and you can’t do anything in between.

As soon as you tell yourself “I can’t do ‘y’ because I’m ‘a’” you’ve limited yourself and your potential. If you don’t want to do whatever it is, it’s obviously not limiting.

Maybe I’m just ignorant, but I don’t see how in legal language they can discriminate against a group of people without putting a label on them. Because in your example you’d still have the heterosexual and the “not-heterosexual” labels. In order to separate the two you have to define one or the other. If no line is drawn, then how do you know who’s crossed it? (Legally)

I guess I don’t see why you have to say don’t treat this group of people like dirt isn’t it easier to just say don’t treat ANYONE like dirt?

I think you’re wondering why just reducing the amount of energy you emit wouldn’t fool EVERYONE into thinking that you’re a lower realm?

I believe it’s because as you reach a higher realm more of the secrets of the universe are revealed to a cultivator. This includes things hiding behind concealing techniques and being able to see their true strength. Even potential strengths. It’s like how they can sense what’s being hidden by a tree and no longer have to actually see it to know it’s there. So you either need a better understanding of the universe or at least a technique developed by someone who does in order to fool someone of that level.
Also, as one improves their strength, they become more efficient and stop wasting so much energy thereby reducing their energy output anyway. So it’s not like you can fool them by using a technique that everyone develops naturally. This also makes sense for seeing someone’s cultivation that’s higher than yours. They become more efficient at using their power and it gets difficult to tell them apart from each other. All you know is that they’re stronger than you, and if they wanted to they could hide their level because they know exactly what you’re looking for when you’re gauging them and so they can fool your senses

I somehow doubt he’ll only launch with 7. He’ll probably sail a cruise ship. 🤭

Bruh, you’re only sacrificing some of your time. 😉
If it’s that bad, you can always just have the memory wiped later.

Just fyi, an airplane will not take off with a dodgy autopilot. This device is required in order to prevent crashes with other planes. When aircraft are flying at 500+ mph they’re approaching each other @ 1000+ mph. The reaction time required is inhuman so the auto pilot has an anti collision system that automatically brings one plane up in altitude and the other down this way they miss each other. It’s like there’s a spec that all a sudden gets bigger till it’s ontop of you in 1 second and then it’s gone. Don’t blink or you’ll miss the plane quite literally.

Yeah… just don’t worry about the dog or monk kid. They’re not even related to you. 😅

Yes so that they can get treatment and potentially locked up before they harm others. It’s like psychopaths and sociopaths. We’re able to get them treatment before they kill someone. Now…. Not all “child lovers” have a mental disorder. Just like how not all murderers are psychopaths. Also, one can seek help before they cause harm and not be put on a pedophile list. If they realize that they have an attraction to minors and are having trouble stopping themselves, they can go and seek medical treatment instead of just being put on the cop’s watch list.

I think if he’s gay then he’d have a harder time resisting. Not being gay makes him dislike the man more for jealousy of his looks. I’m not of the belief that a man looking more attractive is going to get guys to want him.
For example, I hate raw tomatoes. One time, I found one in my garden that smelled sooo good that I took a bite and it was the best tasting raw tomato I ever tasted!!! But it was still a disgusting raw tomato. Such a disappointment. I’ve heard of these legendary tomatoes that taste sweet like apples…But after that experience, I bet they taste disgusting and slimy.
I feel like that’s how it’d be. MAYBE they think he’s attractive enough to try out and then regret their life choices later and never try again. IF they’re straight.

Easy! Orbiting around the earth is super fast. Like 16x in 24hs. So if you don’t time your decent correctly… you could end up just about anywhere.

So…. Helicopters can’t even approach the speed of sound this is because if the tips of the blades break the speed of sound, they’ll shatter the blades. Also, the lift factor falls off this causes the forward traveling blade to lose lift and the helicopter will spin falling off to that side. The main problem with helicopters is that the blades on the left side vs right side break the sound barrier at different times.

Also… The aircraft that CAN go faster than sound all have special intakes that reduce the speed of the air entering them. If they didn’t do this, they’ll shatter engines would literally explode due to shock waves hitting the blades inside the engine.

I love how they’re trying to make it look like rocket science on the board. Try putting an airfoil on the board instead of an atom. Pilots really don’t need to know anything about chemistry to fly planes. Aerodynamics, weather, and navigation is really all they need except for the regulations of course.

People get too hung up on labels and don’t realize that not everything is black and white. I was talking to a gay guy online who was talking about how he can’t stand girls. I dug it out of him where the reason was because he finds them attractive but “he’s gay and can’t appreciate their beauty”. 🤦🏻‍♂️

I suspect that the main issue problem is our culture is monogamous. So you’re forced to “pick one”. But really that’s for after you’ve decided upon one person to spend your life with. And you’re picking a person not a sexuality. After you’ve married do all other girls all of a sudden become ugly? Nope. So what’s the point in placing labels on yourself?
