    Absence from the forum

    I've decided to drop in for a brief moment to say where I've been. In Vermont. And doing pretty well! Seems like forever ago when I was on here.. and sad.. and.. there was a lack of color. And now there is much color. And I rarely have access to the internet. For half the year, actually...

    Alright, fess up!

    That was how it was for me up until recently. And no, it doesn't work; it's like being pulled a million different ways. Eventually there was a point when I dropped the pursuit and began being. With no thing to change, no thing to search for, no thing to compare with.. it's this surprising...

    I love how gender neutral pronouns and identities seem to be more prominent here lately.

    Yeah, I checked it out initially and never looked back.

    When you have to lie

    Yeah, keep it extremely simple but approximate to the amount of detail you'd normally tell someone. Also keep the eye contact similar to your norm and try your best to actually believe it and work it into your personal history as a truth. Lying takes a lot of energy (even if it's a passive lie)...

    Constant Communication With Your Friends. Nonstop, Everyday.

    This thread reminds me of an Onion article I read. Anyways.. I'm going to be purchasing a VoIP device (likely ipod touch) along with a text-only plan phone like Virgin Mobile's Texter's Delight. I personally really enjoy the ability to send out texts while I'm out to friends when I'll be in...

    What are you investigating right now?

    These days I've been looking into syncretism and how to integrate it into an active process instead of a reactive one based on necessity. Libertarian socialism, forms of minarchy, and panarchism. My dreams. I have a dream calender that I fill in every morning with keywords from dreams. I've...

    ... such sweet sorrow

    I actually really like that quote. This thread has kind of inspired me to give a little more of myself to this forum. I don't necessarily know if I can reach out to others but I will start to share my experiences and thoughts a bit more. Lately I've been getting excited about certain ideas...

    Sick of your Pronouns

    I have problems with 'it'. I've been called an "it" before and it's extremely dehumanizing. I guess that might be the goal here, but I think motivation must be a little more clear. If you're trying to break away from humanity then "it" might be apt. If you're seeking recognition of your...

    Who is snowqueen?

    People like you are why I like it here. Not so much that any of you are intelligent.. rather that there's an air of uncertainty here. It's probably not the best place to say this, but I also enjoy the wisdom people like Editor1, LoR, snowqueen, Chimera, Auburn, ect have to share.

    What was your childhood like?

    On the edge of the playground, watching the jumping spiders. Didn't understand hierarchy of any sort. Appreciation for trees and sunsets and a strawberry plant. No friends after school. Gadget from Rescue Rangers and Eeyore were my favorite characters. Ect.

    i'm a (clueless) mac

    This video explains my love of Apple design. YouTube- "Objectified" - Jonathan Ive talks about Mac design & Unibody MacBook manufacture But I still don't know if I'd ever purchase a Mac. I still have never owned an Ipod. I admire them and if they were cheaper and easier to repair/upgrade, I'd...

    Press the button?

    My favorite part of this thread is the decision to make the votes public. It's kind of an interesting way to split up a forum. What if it was a button that would anonymously kill one of the people that live on your street that you had never spoken to? What if the amount was lowered to $50k...

    Intrinsic Motivation

    Despite the cheese, I like this paragraph a lot. At times I feel like water; completely fluid. But at rare moments I feel like I'm solid. There are certain items in my life that I feel completely solid with; mainly because I related to them such a long time ago and while I've changed, my...

    A New Art Movement

    From the Amazon summary of that book: "As his title indicates, he presents the whole of art history as a chronological narrative." What if the next art movement is about dismantling the chronological narrative? I'm really finding this stuff fascinating.

    Intrinsic Motivation

    I like this. I think I'd word it differently, but I'm not sure how to express my thoughts on the matter. What I can comment on is Self Stability. I think having a sense of a stable self is relative to how you define the Self. I'm not sure I change over time; my Self, I mean. What changes is...

    Guide to typing in real time.

    Great job. If only for mentioning the 'Ne bounce'. I get really self-conscious when doing that and always think I freak people out when I go on one of my tangents and then suddenly stop and become stoic. I had an INTP professor that would literally kick chairs over when he got into an Ne...

    Cigarettes

    I keep a pack of cloves around and have one every couple of weeks. I'll probably stop doing that because they've been banned. But I really like smoking on occasion. I realize that's out of the question for those who have been addicted to cigarettes, but I'm a huge fan of doing things in...

    Dexter

    Everyone seems to be watching Dexter now. I re-watched a few episodes with some friends lately and it's becoming obvious that whatever his personality type is, he's completely depersonalized. I relate with him on a few levels; especially at the time I was watching the first season all...

    Why not just chill out at a zen center for the rest of your life? Or at the very least, start dismantling some of the demands the world places on you. There's a way out. It may take a bit of work depending on what you're trying to unburden yourself with, but I think it's entirely possible to...

    CROWDS AND/OR SOCIAL GATHERINGS.

    In theory it's easier to give a presentation/speech for an introvert if they prepare well in advance to get used to all the different variables. Getting used to the environment is a huge help. Normally in an english class you're sitting down and it's really awkward to be above everyone else for...

    Multitasking: a girl thing, or an INTP thing?

    The idea of multitasking seems contingent on how specific you want to be in distinguishing separate tasks. And it seems relative to the overall goal. At what point is someone 'multitasking'? Also, are there levels of multitasking? Have you found that there's a wu wei factor involved in how...

    INTP main characters?
