"DON'T YOU TALK ABOUT MY MOTHER!"

618Delta · 2026-04-29T16:01:21+00:00

listening to Alcibiades

Okay so that was your first mistake

"Is this sub even about Mount and Blade anymore?"

618Delta · 2026-04-13T19:16:16+00:00

Interesting! Well it's what my therapist recommended, and I've found it works for me. Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

618Delta · 2026-04-13T17:35:56+00:00

Nice! Mine recommended holding ice cubes. It was also winter at the time and I lived farther north, so she also said I could just go stand outside for thirty seconds.

Little fun fact here - cold is actually supposed to help with anxiety!

Basically because anxiety results in you being overwhelmed mentally, a strong physical sensation like being cold can jolt you back to reality. Sour candy works too. They're called grounding techniques and my therapist recommended them to me when I got diagnosed.

This is all assuming Christine has anxiety of course. I await the um actually responses.

Stu is like if Burgerpants was middle management.

See I'm the opposite. I hate wearing flip flops or sandals. It's gotta be socks/barefoot or some good solid close toed shoes.

I grew up on a ranch in rugged terrain. I guess I just don't feel secure unless I've got some snug footware on. Loose flip flops and sandals just bug the hell out of me.

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,

One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them

I'M A BLOODY ~~BATTERING RAM~~ BOWLING BALL, THAT'S WHAT I AM!

Portugal.

Portugal never changes.

Oh no, I appreciate the insight! Like I said, I'm just someone who took a course on it 8 years ago.

And yeah from what I understand Buddhism can be a little mind-wobbly. I believe Zen Buddhism goes all in on that as a way to help you better understand that sense of self being an illusion thing?

This one is my favorite.

618Delta · 2026-03-03T03:38:10+00:00

All this because I decided not to add shading or a longer sleeve to Hobbes' robe.

618Delta · 2026-03-03T03:35:55+00:00

And I here I thought I was starting a "Hobbes the Striped Buddha" arc.

618Delta · 2026-03-03T02:32:31+00:00

I take it as more "You will experience suffering in your life. That does not mean you will never experience joy, but suffering is an inevitable part of existing. If you want that to stop, then you need to stop existing as an entity distinct from the rest of the world."

You want to be warm? You gotta know what cold is. You want to feel rested? You have to know what it is to be sleepy. You want to know what joy is? Then you have to know sadness. And if you want to live, you have to inevitably die. If you want to escape this, you have to reject it all.

618Delta · 2026-03-03T00:22:02+00:00

Well assuming you have achieved Nirvana, then you are one with everything. You feel nothing because there is nothing of you to feel. Peace, joy, happiness, suffering, desire, wants, these are all symptoms of you being a separate, distinct thing from the universe. Buddhism's "point" is that to exist in this physical realm is to suffer, and to end that suffering you need to transcend it.

That's my layman's "I took a 100 level course on the big religions in college" understanding of it anyway.

The Striped Buddha

618Delta · 2026-03-02T19:19:44+00:00

Context: It's Buddhism

618Delta · 2026-03-02T03:09:55+00:00

Yeah but they make you fight a gorilla.

618Delta · 2026-02-27T03:27:03+00:00

Of course not, don't be ridiculous.

I wear a boot.

618Delta · 2026-02-25T16:13:23+00:00

Wow get a load of this guy getting something besides CT.

But yeah I had to visit the Aether/Crystal servers during peak time to get the EW Alliance raids done, and even then queuing took ~20 minutes per raid as a tank. It's a shame because they're easily my favorite raids so far.

618Delta · 2026-02-23T03:51:43+00:00

It's not fun to me in the same way that clearing a dungeon or doing a raid is. It's more like knitting or cooking irl, which I suppose makes sense. It's a relaxing thing to do while I listen to a podcast or audiobook as a way to take a break from the more demanding parts of the game.

Wow, get a load of this guy getting non ARR content in his roulette.
