It’s ridiculously competitive. I’m told that if they stock anything in a convenience store that doesn’t sell out on its first day, they just find something else.

Ya also they have tons of freshly made food which you might think is just packaged.

I mean, if you're a successful actress and you go out of the house in a skirt and without underwear, knowing that paparazzi are just waiting for opportunities like this and that it has happened many times before, then there's really nobody you can blame for it but yourself.

"Ah," Ratz had said, at last, "the artiste."
"David lynch has some weird fake yoga scam going" is a funny reason to hate his movies when you consider how many bangers Tom Cruise makes despite being in one of the most evil cults in the world

the old loon is selling meditation via "certified" "teachers." it is 100% a scam.

if he's offering free classes to students and veterans and they get something positive out of it, fine, but that's obviously marketing to lure in actual paying customers. haven't you ever played a F2P mobile game? it apparently costs around $1000 to learn, and they offer scholarships lol give me a loving break.

if you like his movies then go nuts but do not defend this snake oil bullshit with any shred of seriousness.

Do you think you could maybe lay out your grievances with Lynch in some kind of 6 hour post?

yeah TM is gross but entirely harmless compared to literally every other pseudoreligious scam of decent size. I had an aunt who got into it and frankly it didn't really do her any harm other than making her more insufferable than she already was and spending too much money on ayurvedic rose petal jam (which, to be fair, is delicious)

So do you just not believe that certain people can be trained in the art of meditation or do you just refute wholesale the idea that meditation and mindfulness can help people deal with stress and anxiety?

Either way this is ultra-premium 2003 edge lord power-posting.

Snake Oil is different than offering free meditation therapy to children and veterans, lmao

i meditate often and have been doing so for the better part of the last decade or so. i've been to donation based buddhist communities (https://www.dharmapunxnyc.com/ is a great example if you're in NYC) that welcome all and guide them through meditation without needing them to pay for one on one sessions to learn how to sit still, repeat some mantra (that the DL foundation likes to claim is a deeply guarded secret that costs money), and not chase your thoughts.

i wholeheartedly believe that meditation is therapeutic and can be transformative for those who practice it. i reject that you need to pay someone with a "certificate" $1000++ to learn how to do it. if you defend that, you're a literal embarrassment of a human.

SiKboy posted:

See, what we have here is not "failure to seperate art from artist" so much as "You dont like the art, so have gone looking for a reason to dislike the artist to justify it".

wrong. i don't like DL films because i don't like DL films. i meant i was trying to separate the art from the artist bc i didn't want my judgement of DL as a sneaky bullshit salesmen to muddle my already low opinion of his art that i already don't like.

Dude same on both but you're being weird stop it play some video games

If you meditate so much you should be more chill. Embrace the chill. In the grand scheme of things Lynch is like, barely even a blip on the Evil Radar
