Court Laws:
A member found to violate any of these 3 laws has endangered the unapologetic aim of our Community and has evinced he reeks of dishonesty. Dishonesty will hinder that member’s betterment of himself and this Community. As a Community, we must exile that member.
In addition to the 3 court laws, there are 3 unacceptable states.
Unacceptable states:
If a member experiences any of these states, that member must temporarily remove himself from the Community and reflect on why that state is unacceptable. Upon returning, that member may remain in his unacceptable state, however he may not act on that state. Member can solicit the help and advice of the Community to purge him of his unacceptable state.
Because this Community’s unapologetic aim deconstructs deep-seated social realities, all members will unquestionably accept 3 Community realties.
Community realities:
Point 3 frames the credo of our Community: We accept that dramatically improving our current lifestyle in a short period necessitates actually BECOMING the people we unapologetically aim to be. While this transformation may be awkward, painful, and humiliating initially, we believe in the validity of this Community’s credo (which we shall simply refer to as “Point 3”) and stoically accept the ensuing discomfort. Not only will Point 3 strengthen members as individuals, but it will also solidify the bonds and supremacy of our Community.

Ahh...passion, such an interesting topic. I also share your passion for music, just not so much in creating than enjoying.
Another passion of mine has always been intellectual advancement, really anything to improve my understanding of the world whether it be philosophy one day or literature the next if it's intellectual it will appeal to me.
And as of late, though it's to be seen whether this is obsession or passion is Pickup. I can't go through a single hour without thinking about anything pickup related. I'm skateboarding and flying over a set of stairs reminds me of plowing through a shit test, I'm watching a movie and seeing the actress throw IOI's around. I love it.
Well, this comments long enough so music, knowledge, pickup.
I'd say writing, but I feel like "writing" is somewhat misleading.
Whenever I tell people I'm a writer they assume I'm some dork who sits around worrying about auxiliary verbs and fretting over the difference between further and farther. That's only half true. While the actual syntax is important, I feel writing is related to clarity of thought and the structuring of an idea so it'll be communicated and understood to another person.
If you take that somewhat cliche and abstract definition of writing, I'd say writing is my passion. In this sense, my passion is to write something so close to my understanding of the word and so unhindered by my own ego and shortcomings that 100 years from now someone can pickup my book, read it, and somehow understand me and the time I lived in.
Weird but that's what I want out of life: To leave my genetic fingerprint behind not only in the form of children, but in the form of a paperback book.
Music as well. Doesnt matter what mood i am in. The right song can always throw me to the other end of the spectrum. Music is very dangerous to me because it has so much control over my emotions, only when i let it though. Its not a weakness, its a passion.
My other passion which was stated before is benevolence. Also, I love to teach and help other people do enjoyable things.
