ISFJs do nothing but give, and they're some of the most miserable people I know.

I'd rather keep my brain. I don't see why I can't just use my intellect to get the rest later.

I rely heavily on audiobooks for most of my reading. I've extremely poor focus - my mind automatically turns inward - so it takes me forever to read just a few pages. The constant pace of audiobooks forces me to get out of my head to keep up. For the same reason, I've also turned to watching...

I'm particularly fond of the Vorkosigan Saga - INFJ sci fi.

"Blame" essentially means to acknowledge one's responsibility. At the core, this turns into a question about free will. Which is more fair: for one to subject us to their undesirable but natural behavior, or for us to demand that they suppress their natural inclinations? The latter is extremely...

I've definitely noticed that I always go overboard with anything I get emotional about; which is bad, as I tend to get infatuated with just about every new thing. I try to not make any big decisions when I'm excited, but it's pretty hard to wait it out. Not sure about the physical dimension to...

Funny; I just took a picture of my groceries this morning. For nutrition; not morality. I'm still wondering how to best use up all my unspent animal cruelty points.

21 years old; 5'8"; 125 lbs. Since I lost a bunch of weight when I began eating healthier, I look a little scrawny now. I've really got to work out more. Fat really does a lot to fill a guy out. Anecdotally, I can confirm OP speaks the truth. From my own experience, healthy diet (plant foods...

Where does something like inferior Se fit in this model?

Funny thing about that game: you can save a lot of money and get your industry moving a lot faster if you take a cue from some good old fashioned Russian economics. i.e. Starve your peasants, sell off their grain, and supplant their misery with alcohol.

Indeed, I can confirm the probability of this. I'd been seriously into games since the age of...3? Now that I've discovered programming, though, there's so much computer science, technology, languages, and mathematics to learn; anything so trivial and time-consuming as gaming suddenly doesn't...

You know, I think I really like the piano.

More explicitly, I think we most consciously think about past and future. For present matters, we mostly bumble through them somewhat unconsciously with Fe and Ne; don't we? (I know I become a total fluffball). At least until Ti gets a chance to consider them, by which point they're already...

I suspect it may be an INTP tendency in general to save things for our future self; maybe he can appreciate them better than we can. I don't think we INTP's really live in the present. We seem to just shift between past and future.
