What are some ways you keep yourself feeling positive?

I was recently thinking that I have yet to come across someone IRL that I feel comfortable on a level that it would make sense to be partners with them. I mean like a intimate partner. I can be fairly flexible when it comes to male friends and I can just about be friends with anyone to a point...

I don't know much about dream analysis and I don't know how helpful can it be, but over the past months I had very vivid and also very complex dreams, dreams so complex they feel like entire books have been written in my mind. Factually if I could remember the dreams and write them out it would...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eliezer_Yudkowsky Eliezer Yudkowsky is AI researcher, and founder of Less Wrong blog for training human rationality. Also clearly INTP. I wanted to share a podcast with him. Hopefully if anyone willing to watch it, we can talk about this afterwards. OK so the...

I was kind of over indulging in thinking, and in many ways it is both productive, but can be deceptive in what way it makes you productive, because the mind has a way of making us think we are productive. I committed to write out my thoughts on a blank sheet of paper a few times and truly to...

Essentially I realized I think a whole lot of nothing, so instead of thinking Ill just avoid thinking. There is fine line between having brake fluid in ones head and actually useful good thoughts. I am just going to fill my brain with useful thoughts, thoughts that I really like. Its not like...

So I basically ended up observing my daily routine and activity, and brain activity as it were, and I realized that the brain has a default setting, that goes from one dopamine activity to another dopamine activity. But due to ADHD and mild but long depression inability to focus long enough I...

Interesting take on history of media and social structure through the symbolism of Matrix.

Besides nootropics, is there any other way?

Shes pretty good, a little too preachy in some videos, but this vid is spot on imho. Its very simple. She gives advice for nice guys.

I find here style of presenting her research very funny. Also interesting factoids included. On topic of this I think there is not much to say.

I'm sure you can all find boobs on the internet. Do it somewhere else. ~ Hado

I watched the new Blade Runner sometime ago so I am bit rusty, about what the movie was like, but my original impression was it was shit, weird movie, with no real story. I cannot help it, because I legit did not understand the second version of blade runner. I perfectly understood first blade...

There is concept of shadow a type of unconscious part of mind where all repressed evils of mankind dwell, getting ready to be unleashed on to unsuspecting victims. Mans evil knows no bounds and a angry man can kill a million. The thing I like about the shadow though is that we often think of...

...but got to go. This forum was fun, but I think before I exit Ill wave goodbye.

It is my firm belief that Klingon Khanat is mounting an invasion, heading for Earth. They have intercepted the Voyager probe and its very likely we must be prepared to fight to death in 2050. We must arm and militarize Earth and develop technology to defeat HORDES of Klingon invaders. WHO IS...

This question is mostly aimed at actual females, so I would love some actual females to answer. I will not judge your preferences. This is purely out of curiosity. It dawned on me that I am older dude, and I never actually asked any females what they are attracted to. In fact females don't...

Life has no purpose prove me wrong!

So anyway I was looking at photos of some hot guys today, models. I immediately wondered what makes abs hot to others. I can certainly admit having abs makes you hot, but at the same time most of the guys today that pose as models either in fitness industry or bodybuilding have, no joke...

First of all I can achieve things in life, but I get no reward that I can think of that would make me keep going and achieving. For instance in school Id get an A and not keep going. I felt nothing, apart form little dopaminum rush. I would literally sabotage my success. I always had fantasy...

I believe there is ancient principal depicted in zen Buddhist tradition that speaks so universally that it is almost all encompassing principal one can meditate and contemplate all life...... BEHOLD THE ONE AND THE ONLY AND INCOMPLETE CIRCLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now you might be thinking...

I just thought how the human body and mind, are the most sophisticated thing mankind has ever known. Humans rarely realize this, but if you own a body and mind, you are probably operating the most sophisticated machine in the known natural world. You are by far the most versatile and advanced...

First the do nots. :1 Do not build self respect around otherpeoples opinions. :2 Do not build self respect around what others think 3: Do not build self respect on values you do not truly believe in. 4: Do not build self respect with pride. Pride is fleeting, and limited. Dos :1 Build it...

As anyway here is INTP explaining how to Te.

The gold mine and town were named after the Sanskrit good-luck symbol swastika

First of all this is amazing talk, and also very fun to watch. This is about communication and science. And many other thing. However this mission might indeed be successful and lead to Moon base, or Marsh mission as well. We aren't talking peanuts or LEO of space X. This is NASA and they...

I find this as the most funniest jab at pop science promotion, also the most passive aggressive one.

pros, I can kind of get a buzz. cons, it comes with a crash.

So Sabine here, is claiming more bad news with climate change. For those who want to know here is what she says in short. There is a number in climate change models, called sensitivity. This really tells us how much the model is true. Essentially its very possible the models that were...

So I noticed some of you guys might be into getting fit. I noticed my self doing some fit stuff too. I thought why not have something less cerebral and light hearted to talk about. I am currently struggling as INTP finding some specific goals, other than general vague goal of getting fit in...

I will first point out the reason I call this the way I do, is because real science is often subject to theory of method. Here is very fun short article that will probably make you laugh out laud if you see the funny side...

Basically I was watching a comedy. Stand up, with lots of jokes, and I realized how out of touch I am with humor suddenly. I also realized how out of touch I am with some emotions. I feel despirited, humorless, etc. I feel though better in some ways, but kind of flat in the head. I like I...

Russian movie that I tend to think about as Russian Matrix. Generally if you have not seen the movie and want to see it, go and do so, because this is pretty much spoilers. First of all this movie in many ways is remarkable piece of art, but be warned the movie is pretty much seemingly like...

This is probably the most important concept that stood out to me, when thinking about virtually any topic, subject, situation or pretty much any problem ever. Here is pretty simple and good explanation of this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survivorship_bias Now I have seen people on the...

I often watch nature documentaries. They often say interesting things about animals. One thing though is odd that we often talk about animals being stronger than humans. And in some sense that is true. When they measured the strength of an ape either a chimp or a gorilla they came out with...

I am INTP so I am not sure what it even means to be a man other than sex with women. Everything else seems rather gender-less to me. But please don't tell me you think being a man is a proper roundhouse kick and paying alimony on time. While some of you might be traditional in more than one...
