Sure. Just edit out all criticisms of the loapornstars and their lies and propagandist tactics. Also any criticisms of the loa communities and their idiot members. We're all painfully familiar with …

Yes, I’m like you, I really do try to avoid anything that’s not scientific, so this should help you get up to speed on what’s really being said here, and it might be helpful for you to understand the …
You're making a good point there. To be fair I just get random Reddit notifications on this subreddit and I'm disappointed in all the noob questions mentioned, for every second notification is a trash…

I believe it’s still rather low risk and I personally will continue to do flips as if anything I find doing so reduces come down for me. I think the science is still understudied for the most part.
Fighting isn't going to be standing up for yourself, it'll just (maybe) make you feel strong. Standing up for yourself involves having a steady strong self-image with healthy self-worth. You grow conf…
How many years have you done this? What I teach uses tools to assist you like training wheels for a bike. This gives you very real results but it does require you to build a radionics device or buy …
