    Your career ascent (or downward spiral)

    It's ok but it's a bit bothersome how inefficient the whole system is and that may be in part of it being a union job and that many of the management positions goes to egotistical and unintelligent individuals. The pay is great for not having a degree, benefits are better than most, and you...

    INTP Artist

    I really like your work and I can imagine the difficulty of 3d modeling to which I respect. I've dabbled in photography for a few years but have lost a lot of that fire after working in the field for a few years. My current artistic expression of choice is music and music production. I feel art...

    Are you ever happy?

    At this present time I would say I'm in a stable state of contentment, which was a lot better than several months ago for the past few years of floating between misery and pseudo-contentment. I can't recall being happy recently though.

    Have you had experience with psychedelics?

    Good report. I have stories but I doubt for anyone but myself they would be of any interest. Mostly self-reflection, self-projection, and spiritualism. Less straight tripping balls.

    Any smart and creative suggestions are welcomed!

    When I look back, the only friends I still have now are those I have met in high school. All stemming from the passion we shared for cars back then. After high school, I made a bunch of friends in the rave scene but those eventually died off. I have not made a friend in years and I think it's...

    American culture for INTPs, should I move there?

    I would probably recommend the Pacific Northwest (Oregon, Washington, or even British Columbia, Canada) and NorCal as well. I definitely would not recommend Utah, Colorado, Arizona, Florida, or New York (though it's a badass place to visit, living there would prob suck).

    How long can you go without playing video games?

    I recall playing Diablo and Diablo II at least 8 hrs a day for about a year each back in jr. high and high school. I've been playing DOTA and some shooters these past few years but nothing I was ever really addicted to. We'll see how Diablo III treats me though :borg0:

    why are INTP's partial to drugs? i thought INTP's didn't like emotional manipulation. . .

    For your first few times, I would agree. But if you want to witness just how powerful your mind is and experience the full potential of mushies, attempt the latter.

    why are INTP's partial to drugs? i thought INTP's didn't like emotional manipulation. . .

    I would think it has more to do with perceptive manipulation which leads to new experiences as well as learning. Don't forget, we are a curious and rebellious breed. I recall my love for MDMA aside from the serotonin rush is that I felt more open, extroverted, talkative, and was able to put more...
