I'm tired of life

I'm not debating you on that at all. I've heard them both talk about the globe and they obviously subscribe to the evolution bullshit but I wouldn't necessarily discount everything they say either. If you read my post then you would understand the point I was trying to make wasn't that you should hang on everything any one person says but see what you can take away from every experience you encounter with anyone.
They both have some views that can expand perspectives and allow you to think differently about the world.
A lot of the truth can be found from shills, you just have to know which bits to filter out and which bits can lead you in the right direction.

Dependent origination of suffering is elaborated in great detail by the Buddha Gotama in a series of 93 discourses contained in chapter 12 of a book called Samyutta Nikaya. The chapter is called Nidanasamyutta.

Here are all the discourses of that chapter. Just scroll down and choose your translator. I believe Bhikkhu Bodhi is the best English translation:

Here is a lecture on this subject by a knowledgeable monk, to make it easier to understand:

You notice the Monk dress? and how women in Hollyweird wear that same thing? They are toying with us. This is optics, and what do you think the monks were doing? Surely not rewriting our history? That would be absurd

I have to take breaks and decompress occasionally. I think everyone needs to. There definitely a fatalistic sort of mindset that comes with being aware of reality.

That's part of [their] plan too, ridicule anyone who dissents. Don't let them win this time. Take some time for yourself and go relax. Do whatever you need to do in order to relieve your anxiety. Except dangerous drugs, that's not what I mean

Too much marihuana is dangerous.. look into it, even too much water has killed people, everything in excces is bad

cannabis is the best medicine once you learn to respect it.  and the amount you consume should be in direct proportion to what you are consuming it for.  After being hit at 50+mph by a car as a pedestrian I can guarantee you I consume more than most can adequately manage.   It is also the reason I can intelligently discuss this subject in public settings and open minds by doing so.  I have always been a heavy consumer and I am convinced that is what protected my brain from more extensive damage than it sustained in the accident.  It is in fact, the best brain protection you can consume.  I had a Glasgow coma scale of 3, as low as the scale goes before braindead,  and now if tested could manage a high score on the tests they use to determine intelligence.

Truther Depression Recovery:



Anyone who has delved significantly far enough into the fields of hidden history and conspiracy research, upon realizing the depths of deception and absolutely evil atrocities being committed and covered-up by a tiny elite, most of which unknown or uncared about by the masses, will inevitably come face to face with intense feelings of frustration and depression...

A voice of reason in contemporary buddhism, just found out about him today, recommend listening.

I think everyone of us needs to see this one more time:

I believe Yeshua is the answer, but from a non-specific religious perspective, the answer is within.  Focus on being the change you wish and not look at the evil in the world. Also, start prepping for the mark of the beast to roll out. I recently bought an rv trailer and started buying silver to barter.
