Why do we ROAST, to laugh or to cope?
What American ROASTS are really for
- Noble Eightfold Path: wrong speech and right speech
- Comedy Central UK: Top 5 Roast Moments
| What if we could rise above? |
Instead of the usual "abstention and refraining from wrong" terminology, a few Buddhist texts, such as the "Fruits of Recluseship Discourse" (Samaññaphala Sutta) and Kevata Sutta in the Long Discourses of the Buddha (Digha Nikaya) explain this virtue in an active sense, after stating it in the form of an abstention [69].
| Please don't hurt my inner child! It's fragile! |
Similarly, the virtue of abstaining from divisive speech is explained as delighting in creating concord [69] and peace and harmony between people.
| I'm humiliated! I can never face the world! |
The virtue of abstaining from idle chit chat (animal talk or ticcharana-katha) is explained as speaking what is connected with the Dharma, the goal of of which is liberation from all ignorance and suffering [69, 40] by realizing the freedom of enlightenment and the bliss and peace of nirvana. More

Naked: How to get NUDE with us (1/18)
Self-help can hold us back
WHAT HAPPENED?
![]() |
| The "all" that is burning was like a dream. |
This is "awakening" from the illusion of the suffering we identify as we remain tenaciously attached to the Five Aggregates clung to as self. What, then, if we were to let go? Of course, we do not have the power to let go. Form will not let go of form, feelings will not give up feeling, perceptions will not stop perceiving, mental formations will not give up fabricating our reality, and consciousness will not stop processing stimuli and data from the outside world.| So we can get or stay dressed? |
And so long as the illusion lasts that these five heaps take all of this to be the work of a soul or self (atta, atman, jiva), the possessions of a self (I, me, and mine), just so long will suffering continue and get worse. To be done with it, to lay the burden down, we must bring about calm and focus -- sustained attention to see things as they really are. When that is seen, letting go happens by itself. A woman clutches a rope. How long will it take her to let go in horror and disgust when she realizes it is a venomous snake?
Just so, the aggregates cling to the aggregates (and all that they feel belong to this imaginary "self" or "soul" or "ego" they are constantly constructing). How long will it take to let go when they realize that all of this has been impersonal, impossible to satisfy (because things can never offer fulfillment), and radically impermanent (arising, turning, and hurtling toward destruction)? In an instant of seeing, one clings no more. Therefore, to get there, let us let the mind/heart settle into stillness, develop clear-seeing (vipassana), and awaken to direct insight of the Truth. The Truth will set us free.EVENT: Adults getting nude in L.A.

Six-Minute X-Ray: Rapid Behavior Profiling
![]() |
| Pole dancing is sexy stripper training. |
With skills specifically designed for intelligence operations (intel ops), Chase Hughes releases yet another groundbreaking audiobook.
In Six Minute X-Ray, learn the most powerful people-reading system in the world.
Hughes exposes and unpacks simple techniques that come together to allow anyone to see beyond the mask that people are wearing.
In less than six minutes, know more about the hidden side of the person speaking than their own friends and family -- no joke.
(N.A.S.A.) "Electric Flowers" (Mario C. Remix) ft. Nina Persson, RZA
How to see behind the masks we wear:
Identify anyone's (including our own) hidden fears and insecurities in less than five minutes
Masks we wear may be better? - Quickly and easily get an 80 percent read of a person before meeting
- Enable people to become the most vulnerable, open, confident, and best version of themselves during the first six minutes of meeting them
- Discover hidden secrets about a person in six minutes to gain access to their most hidden beliefs and values
- Use this information to create undivided attention and cooperation
- Exactly how to tune in and adapt language to the internal language of anyone speaking
Detect deception the moment it occurs, and know exactly how to deal with it
Rapid Behavior Profiling: Lying? Grief? - Professionally qualify or disqualify the person or team being met within the first meeting
- Get past the social and corporate mask of people – and see them as they are
- Determine the truth behind the desires, fears, and motivations of a counterpart, even when they don’t say it
- Read a room of people like a special agent – guaranteed
- Recognize dominance, fears, and needs before speaking with the person or group
- Become aware of your own social needs and weaknesses and prevent yourself from being misled or manipulated
- Instantly identify the physical position to take when speaking with a person of interest
- Create rapport with the person instead of the mask they’re wearing
- And much more... More

Porn recovery: Mia Khalifa (BBC)
"I feel like I've lost all rights to my privacy": Mia Khalifa | The Conversation | BBC News India
In the interview with Stephen Sackur (who is honest enough to admit he himself has watched porn), she opens up about how she thought her participation would be a personal secret, the exploitative nature of the modern porn industry, and how it changed her life for the worse.
Religious and political views
![]() |
| Esteem: I'm beautiful, but I didn't know it. |
She told Newsweek that critics have claimed that her tattoos were disgracing Lebanon [18]. Khalifa is an active Twitter user. In 2021, she criticized U.S. military aid to [genocidal] Israel [39] and called Israel an "apartheid state," which sparked backlash online [40].
During the Oct. 7th retribution on Israel [for decades of worsening oppression], Khalifa tweeted, "If you can look at the situation in Palestine and not be on the side of Palestinians, then you are on the wrong side of apartheid and history will show that in time."
In another tweet, she wrote "Can someone please tell the freedom fighters in Palestine to flip their phones and film horizontal" [41][42].
She later said that her comments were not an endorsement of violence and that she intended to highlight the need for Palestinian freedom:
"I just want to make it clear...I specifically said freedom fighters because that's what the Palestinian citizens are...fighting for freedom every day [41].
Following this, capitalist porn corporation Playboy ended its podcasting deal with Khalifa, calling her comments "disgusting and reprehensible" [41][42][43].
Khalifa later tweeted: "I'd say supporting Palestine has lost me business opportunities, but I'm more angry at myself for not checking whether or not I was entering into business with Zionists. My bad"[41]. More

The system that controls us all
What if after all that suffering, all that listening to socially woke punk rock of the Eighties (like the Not So Quiet on the Western Front compilation by Jello Biafra's Alternative Tentacles Records), things suddenly became clear? Now they made sense. Now everything made sense. And all the pain and suffering that preceded came to fruition as understanding. It's possible. Here one brave person has a realization about the thing everyone else is missing. That is, what is controlling the illusion?

I'm the hottest! Have you seen my boyfriend Kelce?! He's the best! I've always been beautiful, the most! It just comes natural...well, not always, Britney busted me with the evidence.

Women dating hitting the wall (video)
FBE Capital, June 11, 2023; Seth Auberon, Ashley Wells (eds.), Wisdom Quarterly
Why older women hit the wall when dating | "girls" in their 30s, 40s, 50s struggling to date
With all of the changes in modern dating, older women are not having as much fun with online dating apps, as they were led to believe they would, since many eligible men in their age range are also being pursued by women in their 30s and 20s. This dries up the dating pool for older women and causes a lot of frustration. Meanwhile, it seems poor young guys have next to nothing but their video games, transgenderism, and Asperger's to fall back on.
VIDEO STRUCTURE
- 00:00 Intro
- 01:03 The reality of the wall
- 02:20 How women create and maintain the wall
- 03:49 The "knowing your worth" fallacy [overestimation]
- 05:14 Two Types of Women
- 06:08 Why are romantic women single?
- 07:21 Self-sabotage good relationships
- 08:36 Women "helping" women
- 10:11 Good old-fashioned delusion
Older women are led to believe that dating will be a lot easier as they get older, since they now "know their worth," have tons of experience with guys, and know exactly what they want and what they don't want. But the reality is not only are these absolutely not the things that men are looking for. Then these women add even more traits and requirements to the mix that make it virtually impossible for them to ever be happy with any prospect they meet. True when and where taped, New York, 2022/2023.
