At the beginning of the interview, jReg jokes that his real name is "Anthony". In his "My Secret To Productivity" video, towards the end, he says he's a PhD and shows a jpeg of "Anthony Guevara" having a degree in "Mental Healthism". So, maybe there's some long running meta-joke shit going on (or maybe that's actually his name?)

Jreg is the dude who is so self aware he holds 10 different contradictory ideas and identites of himself simultaneously and doesnt know which one he really believes, which one is really real/genuine. Thats the way i relate to and interpret his content. And he makes really cool werid connections and demonstrates them in a cool way that makes sense somehow without having to think about it for hours on end. He organizes the weird disjointed shit we think about but never bother to fully realize, and expresses and realizes them in a cool way. It resonates with me a lot. I think it really perfectly preserves the weird ambiguous nature of that whole thing, you wanna write smth down it becomes concrete sometimes, expressing and organizing ideas for some ppl tempts ypu to make up your kind. But thats when you lose the interesting novel ambiguous nature of it. Its super subjective but tries very hard to contain everything simultaneously which is what i think of what i imagine as objective, if i have to do that.

just so you know it is entirely possible to reshape not only the structure of your internal dialogue but also the content, messaging, connotations and feeling of it. If you like yours, keep it, but if it's negative (and you dislike that), messy, critical, lacking focus or otherwise dissatisfying it absolutely is possible to change it. You wouldn't consider your bicep to be an intrinsic part of yourself, you'd consider it to be a muscle which grows or shrinks reflective of how you use it and your lifestyle. Your mind is the same. It's not easy at all though. Just wanted to say that because a lot of people don't realize there's a complete disconnect between you and your thoughts,

Since y'all told me to go transmaxxing, I'll share my experience. Personally, whenever I realize I'm attracted to something in a man, I also realize that I got no rizz, and am hella shy and awkward. So then I try to teach myself those attractive traits. Same thing goes for when I think another woman is better at being a woman than me. Thing is, though, maxing yourself doesn't replace relationships. Even if you don't need no man, you're still going to feel like your efforts are kind of purposeless if you're not sharing the outcome with anyone else

Sure sex is a thing but trans people who pass prove sex does not determine if they're percived as a man or women.

I have normal political opinions like: we should abolish peer review from the scientific process, or secularism should be abolished (im an atheist btw), or we should use industrial policy to gradually move away from animal agriculture through what one might call a "vegan new deal." I think echo chambers are a positive development in political discourse, and I strongly support the rights of brothers and sisters to have sex with one another freely, who does it hurt really?

Why did you think he had to keep repeating out loud that online extremism was terrible? It was quite similar to how he was stating so emphatically that we're going to figure out all our crises like AI, and all without coming any convincing arguments.

Hey, Pentecost is the Greek name for the festival Shavuot, Pentecost means fiftieth- because of fifty days since the Passover. Eventually Christians just measured the date from Easter instead, since the events surrounding the Passion week were during the Passover. Christians celebrate Pentecost because the New Testament testifies how Jesus told his disciples to remain in Jerusalem until they receive the Holy Spirit (the Spirit of God that moved upon the face of the waters from the Bereshit.) The Acts of the Apostles record how this happened with tongues as of fire resting over the disciples’ heads and speaking in “tongues” where Jews from Rome or Africa or Persia heard an illiterate Galilean fisherman speaking in their language. For Christians this is the birth of the Church. If you’d like you could read Acts chapter 2, it might be interesting from a Jewish since Saint Peter in his sermon references the prophecy of Joel and the prophetic Psalms of David. Also, do Jews call the names of the Scriptures by their Hebrew names or by the English counterparts? Like would you call the Psalms the Tehillim or the Psalms? And does the Talmud have equal divine authority as the Tanakh?
