Calamity of Looksmaxxing

[merit]

The mental trade-off between stability and issues troubles many inside of this community. People struggle with the philosophies in this community and strive for perfection. If perfection isn't achieved they'll overly stress about falios that nobody outside of this community thinks about in real life. Although there are some who ARE able to think like normal people and filter out all of this bs, most of us in this space are autists and will find it difficult to do so.

What makes you believe that? Looks are the pinnacle of all of this

Looks are just a social class, same with money and even arguably intelligence. It's not like a divine feature it's just a good way to improve the quality of your interactions by changing them

I agree but I'm not quite understanding what you believe the "bottom of the iceberg" is then.

Bottom is fear of death

Bottom is fear of death

Haha and you truly believe that's what's at the bottom when nearly every conscious person fears it and acknowledges it?

Bottom dosent mean most niche necessarily it just means most prevelant, everything eventually comes back to the nature of why things exist and what will happen to us when we don't, I have mental walls up where I can discuss it without properly imagining it because it terrifies me so much

I agree, I think a prime example of this is getting limb lengthening at 150-225k$ and being unable to function properly for over 1 year

Looks are the begging of this rabbit hole, looks will lead toonwy, money to politics, politics to social relations, social relations to social constructs/history and it never ends

Imo it ends up at the mind or even the soul ig if you believe in that but social stuff isn't comparable to like "you" when it comes to what's i

It never ends acc, it comes down to the connstruct of the universe itself and quantum physics and mechanics
All roads lead to math

Maths is within the mind bru only minds are capable of proving the existence of anything and wo anything existing maths is meaningless

To exist in the three dimensions you need to obey the laws of physics. To exist in any dimension you need to follow a set of rules of that dimension. It will all come down to math and physics eventually. Math is something that transcends the three dimensions of this universe

Your claim is synthetic and relying on our minds capability to imagine what is possible and what isn't

The laws of physics or at least the fundamental forces aren't necessary for existence imo, but I do agree that maths exists outside of time and space. All I'm saying is that if you keep doubting and stressing out about things, you will eventually reach a point where the only thing that you truly know (other than analytic truths like 2+2 Is 4) is that you exist

this discussion will have no end, it's paradoxical.
The mind is limited by biological phenomenons, we will never know how far the human mind can go, all that we know is that there is one thing and only thing only in this seemingly finite universe that is infinite, maths, we can claim that maths is something that transcends our universe, therefore we will never be able to fully comprehend it, but one things we know for sure is that it's the root cause of everything that exists in this universe

Sorry I didn't read this one I was too inspired writing my reply
But yeah this topic is paradoxical, we will never be able to fully understand something within this universe, only if we become some sort of god ( by god I mean an omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient being ) or find some way to cheat the laws of this universe

Sorry if I'm not making sense it's kinda late and I'm not thinking well ATM

The bar for online discussions is genuinely in hell bro I'm appreciative for people being able to even talk about things in good faith, let alone in easy to understand ways so I really don't mind it
