Not easy to cut off at 6, especially the movies, songs, and books.
When you run long distance with earphones you soon learn which songs you enjoy the most and cannot live without.
I have added a general list of close finishers at the end of the lists.

“A normie will look at a chair and only see the chair. Hypnotists are aware of this and make their patients concentrate on the object not the space behind it. An awake person will see the chair but place equal importance on the space behind the chair. So, when a normie is fed a statement by the media, the government, or an “expert” they will only see the statement and they will believe it without question because they only see the chair, or the statement. Whereas an awake person will look behind the statement and question its validity.”

“I go on the same walk once or twice each week. There is one part of the walk, around one kilometre, which is my favourite part. And when I walk down that short part, I get the most remarkable ideas, especially related to my writing, often quotes. At some point, I recognized this as a pattern, and so now it always occurs, like magic. I have always felt that certain geographical areas vary in energy, some good for me, and some less good, even bad energy. Countries, areas, and cities vary in this way. So, when you find that special energy place, you can collect good energy, and other benefits, from simply walking through it.”

“The saying, “They sold their soul to the Devil for fame,” has been proven to be accurate. Even if people initially gained fame due to their talents and skills rather than from outside assistance, they inevitably sold it later to maintain that elevated level of fame, fortune, and status.”

“If a plant is wild, living in a forest, it is not reliant on you at all. Dig that plant up, and resettle it in your garden, then it is slightly reliant on you. But if you put that plant in a pot, and bring it into your house, then it is totally reliant on you. It can no longer be called wild, and no longer survive, or breed, without your help. And that is what your leaders are constantly trying to do to you.”
