| It's been a budding interest of mine over the last year or so. Figured I'd throw this out there if anyone wanted to talk Connecticut shades, maduros, Sumatras, Camaroons, candelas, broadleaf, binders, fillers, brands, etc.. I've been working my way through as many maduros as I've been able to get my... |

| I've seen some of the nicest empaths unconsciously manipulating, and I've found myself doing that too. I've also tried to suppress that in me just to find out, guess what, that I put myself in a disadvantageous position. It's all helpless in this regard. I'm just glad that we are living in times of... |

| I read the OP a few days ago and didn't comment, it was very well written and I'd agree with what's said. In my own case I shift the emphasis a bit to what John Gray illustrated in Straw Dogs, that a lot of people (maybe most to some degree) are something like voicemail or press secretaries for thei... |

| This is our great new culture. He who dies with the most toys wins, devil take the hindmost, and most 'winners' (at least those who wouldn't try extracting double-damage by virtue signaling that his 'life has value' when they're just using it - yet again - as a social climbing tool) would probably a... |

| I've seen people explain a lot of political orientation with Big Five / OCEAN / five-factor personality model and it seems to make sense that it would be this way because your politics have a lot to do with what you prioritize. In my own life with politics the things that get prioritized: 1) Playabl... |

| The difference with BPD is that its generally caused by psychological trauma - not present from birth. Science has already discovered that trauma re-wires the brain, so it that sense, yes people with BPD are neurodiverse, just as those with PTSD, or other psychological disorders are. You can extend... |

| As scary as death can be, the world as we know it would cease to function without its presence. We'd have no need for raising children. Especially since if there was no decrease in the population, then we'd have to work substantially to make it work in regards to resources. So adding to the populat... |

| I think whatever case happens to be is what we have to deal with whether we like it or not, and we have to do our best to cope with what we encounter. Aside from that, with whatever you do or don't find evidence for, to live a healthy life (particularly if it's not an unusually easy life and you hav... |

| NEOM's been wild to read about (The Line sounds like a great place for the red shirts to go to carousel on their 30th birthday). It makes sense that they've been a huge oil country, realize that oil is going to be both depleting and less relied on, and so they're trying to reposition while the money... |

This vocal sample also runs through Blush Response by Instra:mental and dBridge but it's perhaps couched even more epic with the pianos on this piece.
