Hi bros. Lurker. First post.

Quick intro:

  • ~1/2 sperg and 1/2 cynic even before trp. Slowly learning powertalk.
  • No guidance whatsoever from parents other than the ten commandments
  • Intermediate at TRP knowledge.
  • I started lifting a few months back.
  • Inner game has been great ever since.
  • Going out more purely to work on social skills & networking.
  • Monk mode though, no plates, no thinking about girls. Just reading nonstop in my spare time. No junk activities.
  • Still studying Engineering. Embracing the suck.
  • I'd like to believe I learn quickly and I am at an intermediate level of being able to think critically

My question is: What other knowledge is out there that I would probably need to know to live a sustainably happy and less ignorant life in the real world? And do you have any preferred sources? If so, are there any video (youtube) sources you subscribe to that are perfect for beginners?

What I know I lack knowledge / skills on:

  • How the world works
  • Economics
  • Politics
  • Pop culture outside of 4chan, youtube, and reddit (i.e. movies, works of art)
  • Important historical figures that were pioneers of certain fields (I.e. I learned of Niccolò Machiavelli from this subreddit)
  • Meditation (it's all broscience to me)

In essence, I would appreciate it if you guys could refer me to things similar to this list which will change my worldview. I seek knowledge:

  • Secrets in plain sight documentary (non-fear-based info about freemasons)
  • Reading about Noam Chomsky and his influence on propaganda (have not gotten around to reading any of his books yet)
  • pussypassdenied subreddit for real life examples on holding frame in tense situations (Joe Rogan & worldstarhiphop)
  • 4chan /pol/ posts about race inequality. Less politically correct than hjernevask.
  • Sidebar post about powertalk
  • TV Tropes - everything that there is in the field of arts.

Game:

  • RSDtyler's "The Secret Society" before I found TRP
  • theredpill for inner game of course
  • Working on my voice in general (dude you've been missing out if you've never tried to find a natural resonance in your voice)

TL;DR let's exchange some info to expand our worldviews

Thank you for everything so far and I look forward to regularly contributing in the near future.
