VALENCIAGA: Jhanic Fashion, Tantric Humor, and Compassion Alignment

Topics discussed: * How fashion is aligned and misaligned with Team Consciousness (largely counter-productive due to the cultivation of craving, selfing, and envy, but also somewhat aligned with qualia-rich aesthetics) * 2nd Jhana related to humor qualia: Sukka as a softer version of Piti and * Bubbly Humor as an alloy of mostly Sukka and a little bit of Piti. * Tantric Humor as a possible way to accelerate the development of Jhanas. * AGI psychosis and how to avoid it. * Clinically significant humor. * Honoring the victims of pain and suffering. * Strong motivation to tackle suffering and aligning the God Realm and the Buddha Realm. ~Qualia of the Day~: Non-Alcoholic Beer Links: VALENCIAGA QRI Meetup - https://qualiacomputing.com/2023/04/06/valenciaga-qri-bay-area-meetup-on-saturday-april-8th-2023/ Aligning DMT Entities - https://qualiacomputing.com/2023/03/05/aligning-dmt-entities-shards-shoggoths-and-waluigis/ Harmonic Society: 8 Models of Art for a Scientific Paradigm of Aesthetic Qualia (2019 published article about art) - https://qri.org/pdf/Harmonic-Society.pdf Hypermotivation by David Pearce - http://www.hedweb.com/wirehead/hypermotivation.html Wireheading Done Right - https://qualiacomputing.com/2016/08/20/wireheading_done_right/ Hilarity Scale (caution, it's logarithmic!): -2 - The Grinch (actively anti-humor, not in the Andy Kaufman sense, but in the "I hate people having fun" sense) -1 - Anti-humor (grumpy, too much coffee, Spock, hungover, etc.) 0 - Zero humor (this can be one of many states, including neutral valence, anhedonia, and focused arithmetic work) 1 - Slightly perked (lightly aroused, hint of something being 'slightly odd', realizing your shirt is inside out) 2 - Simple fun (the feeling of connection and banter when playing a board game with friends) 3 - Slightly funny ("shadows" of joy and laughter, looking goofy, dad jokes) 4 - Clearly funny (well-placed puns, garden-path sentence, manifests as singular discrete chuckles separated by silence, feels like the laughter balloon got slightly inflated and deflated but without much of a buildup) 5 - Very funny (cracking some jokes with friends after a few beers, being tickled by a sibling, someone poking fun at your outfit so long as embarrassment does not take over - the balloon is inflated and then let go) 6 - Slightly hilarious (the moment you realize your friends have been pulling a good-natured prank on you, getting stoned and watching a comedy show by Bill Hicks (among others), the balloon is getting enough air that it stays inflated while it also lets go of air, energy building crosses threshold where the homeostatic equilibrium keeps things funny at a constant level) 7 - Clearly hilarious (when you realize that your entire career was a practical joke by your family, bursts of laughter, the balloon's homeostatic equilibrium is medium-filled, self-sustaining feedback loop of laughter, "the engine has been turned on and can't be turned off", Example*) 8 - Very hilarious (Crescendos of laughter, orgasmic laughter, being tickled constantly, being amused by common objects like teacups and chairs as is common on LSD) 9 - Outrageous ("absurd laughter", laughter with no semantic referent, laughter that undoes years of trauma, laughter that causes hernias, laughter that needs to be stopped for your own good - I recommend smelling turmeric to help you calm down. The laughter's feedback loop leads to higher and higher levels, chaotic attractors, rolling on the floor uncontrollably, clinically significant humor) 10 - Cosmic laughter (Laughter beyond existence and non-existence, transcendent laughter, the laugh of the Buddha mind, pure undiluted nondual hilarity, tantric laughter, the balloon explodes and the air inside becomes one with the air everywhere else - reality is humor, humor is reality, emptiness is laughter, laughter is emptiness - you cannot come back from this level, as you get absorbed by the laughing Buddha) *https://youtu.be/hSFWgKl-O-A
