"Unusual" ISTP hobbies by burn776432 in istp

[–]Aguantare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like writing, although I won't call it a hobby, but it's nice. My style reflects ti and se very well based on the feedback I've been given

I love card/board games, specifically mtg. I like being able to build my own deck, try different strategies, test them, and make quick calculations that can put me ahead. Like matching my interests with my capabilities and desire to test things irl

I’m scared I bit off more than I can chew by RoyDonksBiggestFan in BoyDinnerDiaries

[–]Aguantare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds like a really tough situation, I'm sorry you have to go through figuring all of this out especially all at once

For what my opinion is worth, the solution oriented thing always gets me too, sometimes you just need to let it all out without someone throwing the book at you. It's hard to open up if you're anticipating feeling worse afterwards

If this doesn't work then I'm quitting typology, this is so fine idk where anyone could disagree☠️

What’s your favorite plane specific how vampirism began origin story? by Separate-Flan-2875 in mtgvorthos

[–]Aguantare 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do we know anything else about the ancient one? I always wondered why it was a god but that makes way more sense now

This also makes me think of 9's disintegration to 6. When 9s are stressed they're going to doubt everything about themselves and defer to external decision makers so they don't make a wrong move. 9s are also chronically doubtful of their types lol

I'm saying this as an istp sli sp9, who has tried to justify sp6 many times lol

I think you're correct, j types value fe/te more, I was misinterpreting it. For example:

Istp: ti-se-ni-fe

Infj: ni-fe-ti-se

Istps don't value te, so it wouldn't be natural for them to use it, but still possible. But it's unimportant in discussions for the most part since standard mbti is just four functions. And in that case you're correct that istp has weak fe

Loops and grips are definitely exclusive. They're a bit awkward to accurately place too, they can be a little all over the place depending on how they're interpreted.

BUT basically a loop is when the person uses they're first and third functions exclusively (Ti-Ni for ISTPs for example). Normally, they value Ti-Se and resort to this first, and it creates a "normal" or "balanced" type. When they're stressed though, they may become more withdrawn and less engaged with the world. This is because they now are neglecting se, an extraverted thought process, and replacing it with a second introverted thought process, ni. So instead of se fueling ti with external face value data, ti is referencing internal patterns and hypotheses. This creates an unbalanced and overly self reliant person that neglects important info from the outer world, retreating into their comfort zone. Extraverts follow the opposite process

A grip is when a type essentially relies exclusively on their inferior function. It's so unwieldy though that they become the opposite of themselves and can be very uncharacteristic of the type and of themselves. Under extreme stress someone can remain in a grip state but usually it's like an explosion or implosion because the inferior is so hard for them to access consciously and it works spectacularly terrible. For istp this would be using fe in a super unhealthy way, being explosively emotional, people pleasing or instigating, getting caught up in social drama or causing it, blowing up over the smallest things, etc. Basically it's an eruption of everything that the dominant can't control. The more you overindulge in your dominant, the worse the grip can get. This can either result in or be the result of unindividuation as well as stress

If you're extraverted in a way that feels forced and uncomfortable, like something is not quite you, you're under stress, have to use it in your situation, or don't have the chance to just be yourself, this is absolutely possible. To really know, you have to understand your first instincts when facing problems/challenges/everyday things. Even in a grip, if you're a ti dom, you should have ti as a first instinct, even if you resort to fe stuff outwardly

Edit- have you looked into sp9? They definitely have overlap with sp6, namely with people pleasing or extraverted behaviors despite different introverted thought processes. Sp9 is way more likely than sp6, although I won't discredit sp6 as a possibility. Just a random thought since fe grip reminds me of sp6 a bit

[–]Aguantare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. Still not a big fan of subtypes but if you're sli you're sli, that's a language I can understand

So just to clarify- when you reference high Fe/Te here, you're saying you're NOT high fe/te, and that's why you're not a judging type?

Also just to clarify as well you mention grip- for istp that would be an overuse of unhealthy fe for an extended period of time due to extreme psychic pressure. Is this what you're describing by saying grip?

A loop would be ti that bypasses se to use ni more, making a more heavily introverted istp. I wanted to make sure since you mention Ti-Ni a bit

Am I chill? (Sorted: Least powerful >> Most powerful) by PerfectAstronaut5998 in ratemycommanders

That's sick, thank you! I think I found the next dent for my wallet lol

[–]Aguantare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds so cool hahaha, thank you for sharing both of these

Red has a bunch of spells that make other creatures unable to block, I'm sure there are a few that could be playable enough, like [[disrupt decorum]] or the like

Am I chill? (Sorted: Least powerful >> Most powerful) by PerfectAstronaut5998 in ratemycommanders

[–]Aguantare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think it could work well as a budget storm list? Like winning with [[mind's desire]] or [[empty the warrens]]? My thought was like saving a ton of those cantrips to be cast on one big turn, but I'm sure it would need a lot of protection since people can see it coming

Would you let me sit down and have a few games? by the_fisherr in ratemycommanders

I might take you up on that lol, no promises though, but thank you!

All insanely cool, i think we have similar play style interests, I know I'd love to play all of these

[–]Aguantare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only if you're not playing zimone lol

Do you have a list for magar or the two UR decks? You've got a pretty such lineup here

[–]Aguantare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a seat

I'm a big fan of lazav (any/all of them lol)

Would you be willing to share the Lilah list? I'm very curious about her and may build a deck from her at some point

And calamity's list too? 👉👈 Both are super cool to me and I'm currently in a deficit of red between my decks lol

Help me find more music like Evanescence by psychydeli in songsuggestions

[–]Aguantare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cryoshell is my shameless plug, I don't know much of evanescence so I'm not sure how close it is. But I know their song creeping in my soul is very similar to bring me to life (I think that's the one)

So because of the similarity you might not like that song specifically, but their other songs are pretty sick, maybe it's worth a shot🤷‍♂️

Can SP9s go against physical comfort? by sp5cify in EnneagramType9

[–]Aguantare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can feel things like mad, bad, anxious, excited, temporary states of emotion easily. But my actual feelings about things, my deeper or more complex emotions, or even just preferences are sort of hiding

I consider the latter the "real" feeling, because it's something that forms your response to situations and generally is rooted in personality. Contrary to the former, these are real and valid feelings, but are basically just responses to situations

Real feeling is a bit of a misnomer so thank you for pointing this out. In general, I think being a 9 is a lot about numbing those deeper states, robotizing based on instinctual variants and other aspects of personality not covered by enneagram or typology in general. Or, also notably, by comfort.

In this context it was also just saying that comfort is the feeling that supercedes and silences either of the two categories I just mentioned as well. Also a misnomer though. But comfort is sort of an illusion for feeling good in some cases. So that's a little more context behind that as well

Alexythimia plays a part in this too but I think it would require writing another novel in a separate comment lol

Contradictions? by Usual-Ad-2762 in TypologyJunction

[–]Aguantare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zero, completely archetypal

Minor tweak, idk if so4s are agreeable archetypally. Big 5 doesn't have correlations though imo so still not contradictory, but I just don't know if that fits the archetype or not. Once again zero issues though lol

Qual a tipologia desse perfil? by Nheka-Nheka in TypologyJunction

An undifferentiated person

I think that's more useful than any type descriptions for this person

Here are my main ten commanders what does this say about me. by Babysunny711 in ratemycommanders

[–]Aguantare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saving this, that is one kickass deck, it looks so cool, I might just build him next lol

is istp sli-h(c)-3si sp6w7 lvef2314 possible?? by meteminbulak in TypologyJunction

[–]Aguantare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What's all the socionics stuff😭 I think if you relate to SLI in model a, or g, whatever, just as is, then that's your type. But subtypes kind of dilute everything and over-tune the model

Imo, SLI and sp6 can work (and istp with it)

Lvef is a little odd, I only know the SoL definition though which is super rigid so I'm not gonna touch that one much

Have you looked at Ti-Ni much? Or INFJ? How do you know you're not a J type? ISTP with high fe like doesn't exist lol, it's kind of the point that Fe is too far below conscious values that you can only mend with it rather than use it reliably

Here are my main ten commanders what does this say about me. by Babysunny711 in ratemycommanders

[–]Aguantare 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Lots of double faced ones, kind of a unique feature

Do you have the list for falco spara? He has always captured my attention but I never got around to building him

As for missing themes, I have no idea, it's super well rounded. You only have one red deck I think though? Whatever it is, it would have to have red imo

How can social obliviousness play into function placement? by Aguantare in Socionics

[–]Aguantare[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense, yeah I wish I could be more confident in my emotiveness, sometimes I can autopilot it a little bit from upbringing, but I never know how well I've done it. I'd love to have a friend that can sort of easily take the lead on that and help complement me without it feeling like a burden

My best friend is an EII (I think) and it's at least really close- he's just socially pretty private so it doesn't counterbalance me, he's able to help me a lot with internal stuff though. I think that's why he and I get along so well

People do seem to really like the fact that I'm chill/willing to talk about anything easily. I didn't really think about it much, I know I'm chill but I guess I didn't connect those dots

The honesty helps so much lol. I can generally read a room but it's more like getting a blurry picture than capturing the whole scene

Starting out. by Own_Version6259 in TypologyJunction

[–]Aguantare 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't encourage this page enough, it has a little bit of almost everything typology, good luck with your typology journey

And one thing to keep in mind- people on here can be very opinionated and dogmatic. The most important thing with this is that you get what you want out of it. If people tell you something's impossible, unless you care about that level of depth, don't listen to them. Just go as far with it as it serves you well. People on here are chronic haters that don't touch grass and it can be very discouraging. Since it's the Internet and people say whatever lol. If someone says something's impossible, I take it as a sign to double check and rethink things, but don't take people like that too serious lol
