  • i'm lookin at my roomies dog and if his 'world' is 90% smells and mine is 90% visuals, we aren't even living in the same reality, yeah?

    it’s kind of a trip to think that there isn't just one 'real' world sitting out there, just a bunch of different versions depending on whos looking

  • u asked for studies to prove u wrong & i gave u a 2025 review of 16 papers and now u move the goalposts because u don't like the results.

    it's mental health. if a ritual helps someone with ptsd and literally changes their heart rate and brain waves, it's working. hrv and gamma waves don't just 'convince themselves' to change. u can't say it's 'nothing' just because it's not a pill.

  • How u objectively prove someone isn't feeling better when they say so?

  • What u define as proof if it's people saying they feel better? Are u saying they don't?

  • kinda yeah. i know plenty of people who got help from this type of stuff. they do ayuascha retreat and sort through their shit and go on to do their thing. but nobody wants to hear about that, they wanna hear about the guy who got a dramatic psychosis.

  • it's awesome what we can create, like art. but then we live in this culture that's all about creating "content" and consuming it, really hungrily. Like yay, we get to create more but people appreciate it less.

  • There’s not really any point in trying to support religious magic healing at this point. People already believe in a gigantic amount of scam and have no critical thinking, and you start debating about the exact definition of what is a placebo effect even though it’s one of the only few bits of “critical thinking” knowledge that people have?

    have you or has someone u know experienced something like this?

    We say things like "time is money" but really the most valuable thing you have (and which everyone covets) is your attention.

  • why do so many people think the brain is somehow totally isolated from the body?

    Jump

  • no but that's my point, like... i THOUGHT people weren't actually going around thinking that the mind is separate from the body like the brain isn't totally connected to everything. Like people were just using the phrase cuz it makes sense. but i realized the "Pull Yourself Up from The Bootstraps" people really actually think that it is just mind over matter. Or even bring up free will and suddenly everyone's like "noooo my mind is unaffected by the conditions of the body" and so on.
