one of the most liberating realizations a human can have:
almost all of your thoughts are completely useless, wrong, and meaningless.
they are just biological feedback from a dysregulated nervous system, old childhood defense mechanisms, and genetic conditioning.

Porn addiction and Histamine
Excess histamine promotes addiction.
Usually, when histamine is high, dopamine is LOW (all addictions are your body's attempt to increase dopamine levels in the brain) and antagonizing the H3 auto-receptor increases dopamine.
Its been found that when histamine is highest, chances for addiction or relapse is the highest
Estrogen and cortisol is also heavily involved as both increase histamine, all of which promote addiction
A few simple tricks to lower histamine so your urge to watch porn reduces:
- Vitamin E
- Caffeine (Caffeine inhibits histamine release from mast cells and reduces mortality from anaphylactic shock.)
- Progesterone (Progest-E (progesterone and vitamin E) can powerfully lower histamine. Both substances oppose the histaminergic hormone estrogen.

Bir erkeğin hem eş bulma başarısıyla hem de üreme başarısıyla (çocuk sayısı) tutarlı ve anlamlı pozitif ilişki gösteren tek fiziksel özellik boy değil fiziksel kas gücüdür.

Erkeklerin maskülen özellikleri (iri kas kütlesi, kalın ses, geniş kemik yapısı), kadınların estetik beğenisini cezbetmek için değil; tarihsel süreçte hemcinslerini sindirmek, fiziksel rekabette üstünlük kurmak ve kaynaklara/dişilere erişimi tekeline almak için evrilmiştir.

La belleza física del rostro de las mujeres depende más del padre que de la madre. Además, los padres más atractivos tienden a tener hijas con rostros considerados más femeninos.

If you are a neurotic/anxious person, you must ignore most of your worries.
91.4% of them never come true.
Rumination ruins living.
It drains your internal resources without delivering any positive return on investment.
Of course, rumination might initially feel like productive analysis, which is why it is so addictive.
Your brain tricks you into believing that if you just replay the scenario one more time, you will find the magical answer.
In reality, it is a closed loop that generates anxiety without action.
But you cannot think your way out of rumination.
Trying to solve a rumination loop with more thinking is the ultimate psychological trap to the point that is often called the "rumination paradox."
Most traditional advice relies on a top-down approach aka trying to change your thoughts to change your body.
But when your nervous system is dysregulated, this fails.
Instead you should try changing your physical state first to force your brain to quiet down.
Think breathwork, taking action, working on GABA, lowering glutamate, vagus nerve stimulation etc

Marry up in looks, fellas.
Researchers rated the faces of 82 newlywed couples, then filmed them working through a problem.
When the wife is better looking, both partners are more supportive. When the husband is better looking, he sulked and gave less.

No negotiating with your lazy self. Sure, rest and recovery as needed. But don’t deliberate unnecessarily. Action. @jockowillink
Stop negotiating with yourself when the alarm goes off:
The alarm goes off and there is no debate. No negotiating. Sort of robotic - the thing goes off and you do what you're supposed to do.
Then go work out. Break a sweat and you will feel better and you will get energy from it. That is a guarantee.
The only way it goes the other direction is going psycho hard: lift, run, surf and jujitsu in the same day. That is not a normal day.

According to an article published in the journal Intelligence, there is a significant correlation between a mother’s IQ and that of her biological child, but no correlation between a mother’s IQ and that of her adopted child.
Family environment is a factor of virtually no importance compared with genes when it comes to explaining a person’s IQ.

“At its peak, affair website Ashley Madison had 20 million active male users, but only 1492 active female ones. This difference is particularly stark given that men had to pay to use the website, whereas women were given a free lifetime membership.”

Prolonged tadalafil exposure promotes skeletal muscle myogenesis and regulates early myogenic markers activation in C2C12 cell lines
“emerging evidence suggests that phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors may also have an effect on skeletal muscle metabolism and plasticity…”
