Reza Pahlavi: If yesterday's reformers today decide that it's... no use, we'd better join with the people and have the same demands, they're welcome to join us. It's as simple as that. As long as, again, they're not criminally implicated in the murder of their own citizens, because that's a different story, and they will have to account for it.show more

The human brain is not the source of your... thoughts; it's only the antenna receiving the message from your higher self. The conscious self is the observer in the material universe, receiving the knowledge of good and evil. The decision is already made before the person becomes consciously aware of making the decision. But the conscious self will have to bear all the emotions from the consequences of the decisions and the lessons required to learn the knowledge of good and evil.show more

You're right. Here's a malinoise in action. They need... to be stimulated regularly. That's one thing some people don't know yet. They get dogs because they have the money and they like it. One of the things they don't consider is the energy level of the dog. If you know you won't have time to keep them trained and engaged, it's better to get low energy dogs.show more

watched a guy stream yesterday. 1000 games this season.... same rank. but here's what he did: posted a highlight clip. "consistency is key" talked about his "grind mindset" made a tier list video about matchups. created content about his journey. everyone in chat: "grind god, keep pushing" but nobody asked: why are you still here? 1000 games. still master tier. that's not a grind. that's an addiction. here's the brutal truth: grinding FEELS productive. you're playing. you're improving. you're getting better. except you're not. you're just busy. the highlights you post? that's 1 out of 50 games. the other 49? you're making the same mistakes. the same positioning. the same macro decisions. but the GRIND itself feels good. because grind = progress in your mind. virgin grinder: plays 100 games, reviews nothing, posts highlights, calls it a grind chad improver: plays 10 games, reviews every one, makes changes, climbs but the virgin FEELS like he's doing more. feels like he's working harder. feels like he DESERVES to climb. here's what actually happens: you play 1000 games without CHANGING anything. your brain gets addicted to the effort. to the routine. to the FEELING of grinding. "i played 8 hours today" → dopamine hit im up 50 lp! so. you're still not good at the game the disconnect breaks your brain so you post another highlight and tell yourself "consistency" consistency at WHAT? being hardstuck? watched another guy play 200 games. changed his mindset. climbed 2 divisions. why? because he didn't grind. he ADAPTED. the grind is EASY. you just queue. you just play. you just show up. but actually IMPROVING? that's hard. that's thinking. that's admitting you were wrong. that's changing habits. most of you will never do that because the grind is COMFORTABLE. it FEELS like you're working. it FEELS like progress. it FEELS like you deserve the climb. but more games does not equal results. your friends see you playing 8 hours a day and think you're dedicated. but you're not dedicated. you're ADDICTED. addicted to the feeling of "grinding". addicted to the routine. here's the uncomfortable truth: if you've played 500+ games and haven't ranked up significantly, you're not hardstuck. you're COMFORTABLE. you like grinding more than you like climbing. because climbing requires CHANGE and change is terrifying. grinding is safe. grinding has no accountability. grinding lets you post highlights and say "progress" but climbing? climbing forces you to admit: i was wrong. my playstyle is bad. i need to change fundamentally. that's painful. so you grind instead. you grind and you grind and you grind and you tell yourself the climb will come. but it won't. not until you stop grinding and start CHANGING. the saddest part? you have the time. you have the will. you have the mechanics. you just don't have the HONESTY. the honesty to admit 1000 games with zero progress isn't a grind. it's a cry for help disguised as improvement. study the saskio wayshow more

Erin O'Toole: "It's really sad we're in this position... that we would have to respond. It's a sign that the U.S. has been walking away from the system they created after the war, the rules-based system of building friendships and alliances. I still hope we can make a deal and get back to that, but we've got a Plan B if that's what they choose."show more
