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...
Anthile pretty much covered it. :)
I also like Il Nessuno's picks.
And I contribute a mention of Working for a Nuclear Free City:

Beautiful.
The other link to the card I posted is broken so here it is again.. The Queen of Water (cups):

SnowQueen.. I'm going to point you to the Osho Zen Tarot. It's beautiful, the images speak...
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...
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)...
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...
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...
ex⋅plore
1. to traverse or range over (a region, area, etc.) for the purpose of discovery: to explore the island.
2. to look into closely; scrutinize; examine: Let us explore the possibilities for improvement.
3. Surgery. to investigate into, esp. mechanically, as with a probe...
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...
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...
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.
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.
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...
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...
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...
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.
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...
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...
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...
My depression usually lifts around this time of the year. I absolutely love it.
In fact, my thread that I just posted in the INTP subforum was inspired by my intense love of Autumn.
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...
Glad you like it. This one might be even better though. ^_^
New addiction:

I don't know if there's a 'best'.. my girlfriend introduced me to this a couple months ago and I'm continually stunned.
My consistent favorites are edIT and Emancipator.
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...
I want design and personally build a 2 story microhome somewhere in Oregon that's somewhat isolated but still has easy access to water, internet, and civilization. Under the house would be a fairly large sound-proofed basement where my own personal studio would be. I'd have a garden, a pond, a...
Kidege.. you're family is cool. My friend's family decorates an upside-down plastic christmas tree.
Also.. I'd check the ethnicity of your Christmas action figure set. Most of the ones I've seen have been uncharacteristically European. Which, along with the included flora and fauna, just...
Creativity and intrinsic interest diminish if task is done for gain
This hits home with me. I personally don't want to do anything unless I'm intrinsically motivated to do it.
How you personally react to extrinsic motivation? Do you feel you are at your best when intrinsically motivated?
I think I'm just going to write letters to everyone in my family this year. I do like the idea of giving gifts though; small, thoughtful, and inexpensive. I come up with things I want to give my girlfriend *all the time*.
And I actually really like my mom's side of the family. They're always...
Just watched all of Dead Like Me. Best show ever.
Pushing Daisies is next because I kinda sorta think Lee Pace is awesome. I just realized he starred in Soldier's Girl and I have a new respect for him.
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...
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...
What about Jaye from Wonderfalls and George from Dead Like Me?
Both are essentially the same character from the same creator. Dead Like Me even talks about personality types in one of the episodes and the character growth of George throughout the series is based on her resolving her I, T, or P...
