@Nagib Nagibator Видос не смотрел, но хочу добавить, что автор сам себе очень много противоречил в его предыдущих видео. Он то рассказывает, что статистика ничего не стоит и мы все уникальные единицы и подобное, а потом, через 5 минут в том же видео, опираясь на статистику защищает свой тейк. Хуйня на постном масле. Видео у него и стиль прикольны, и их надо больше воспринимать как развлекалово, а не серьезный материал. В принципе, как и все на Ютубе.

You don't justify not doing the thing with excuses. You create those excuses so you can justify not doing the things that you want. You're subsconsciously using them as a tool to guiltlessly withdraw from improving or whatever is that you want. Because your brain knows that doing something as reading e.g. is way harder than gooning or scrolling. So he uses current shields, which also happen to bring pleasure, to completely avoid whatever that you want.

@Adam Agh same as me and i guess any other human. I just try to think about these often and it works for me. But none of us are perfect anyway.

@Julian K No. There are literal panty vending machines in Japan. Also, a thing with an iPhone camera from there. Phones bought there cannot make a photo silently, because many men there try to photo an underskirt. And more respect towards them? Manga and Hentai from Japan. South Korean with k-pop and the way female artists are portrayed, packaged and marketed with an intense pressure on the appearance. And then there’s China with its “pretty economy”. I don’t think you’re right.

@Julian K What I am asking is about one’s attraction to ass. Men biologically are identical everywhere on the globe. And I am curious why ass? Breasts are reasonable because we’ve got milk from them when we were infants. But ass? This is what I am asking and I see no correlation with religion or culture you’re trying to point out. Elaborate if you may.

@Thomas Williams For a great athlete self-reflection and questioning is necessary. They have to work dilligently and to know where exactly. They have to know their weakpoints and work on them. So in this case, if philosophy is reflection and similar stuff it is necessary for them. Otherwise, there's no greatness. For a wicked-teeth John Doe, a redneck from Texas who had inherited a farm, there's no need in philosophy. There's no necessity. He just exists and is fine as he is. And necessary is a strong word. It means actually being irreplaceable and a must-have. So yeah, broadness matters. At its highest there's no necessity in it for anyone, unless they're a philosopher themselves. At some point of self-reflection and seeking to become greater -- it's preferable and cool to have. Maybe even necessary, but as I am thinking now it's really a strong word. And on the level of logical reasoning and basic thinking, since we live in a society -- it is a necessity. But yet again, it depends on your goal... Like if you just live and exist and aren't bothered by the society whatsoever you wouldn't even have to think. I don't know, there are a lot of sides to be looked at. But yes, broadness of the term matters a lot. And for whom statement should apply. Nevertheless, I'd rather not use "necessary" unless it's obvious, and thus far -- it's not.

What kinds of addictions do you have? And why do you have them, what purpose do they serve you? Like whether they give your relief or etc.? And do you have any goals?

@Lain Iwakura Interesting. So why do you even want to get rid off them? If they give you pleasure, why bother? Let me assume that by gooning your give yourself some relief. That's okay. But after doing it you feel bad which stops your from pursuing your goals. So you're trying to quit goong to become free and thus start getting progress on your goals. I assume that's your chain of thought. But either way, goals require hard work. You have to apply yourself to it and you'll likely have to work your ass off. And your brain knows it. So he has subconsciously developed thinking I have described in the earlier paragraph. You goon => you relieve => you feel bad => you're procrastinating on your goals But knowing that you're goals are probably hard you're brain avoids them. But secretly developing your addiction. Working on your goals is hard => Your brain avoids it => Develops gooning addiction that results into a bad mood => You have justification of avoidance of working on your goals. In that scenario, you better quit. Just rethink through all of your addictions and habits and spot these patterns yourself. Otherwise, I see no point in quitting an addiciton. Unless like your doctor advised you to it or something. Think for yourself. ... Or I can think of a scenario with caffeine addiciton. You read somewhere that when you're doing caffeine you're limiting your brain cognitive capacity to 70%. And not 100 that will surely help you in your pursuits and other fluff. So your brain thinks that once you quit caffeine you'll be able to pursue this goal of yours and achieve it in some time. But he remembers that it's going to take unpleasant hard work. And he starts to avoid it by constantly unsuccessfully trying to quit that caffeine in order to unlock the full potential. Bullshit. I think that quitting an addiction may be a harmful habit itself in the scenarios I have given you. But again, think for yourself and try to look at your habits applying the chain of thought I'd given you. May help, may not. Worked for me at least.
