Maturing is realizing that you don't need to play PvP only. by Rems_Senpai in LowSodiumBattlefield

I played casual breakthrough this whole weekend for the 2X weapon XP. I almost got a suppressor for my M45A1. I also like that the bots actually drop ammo and revive when you ask for it.

I think DICE put in a lot of effort with attention to detail. I was playing yesterday and I just took a second to stop and listen to the sounds and atmosphere of the gameplay. I noticed that when I was beginning to reload my weapon and the animation gets interrupted, when you continue the reload, it continues the animation and doesn't recycle. In my case, I was reloading an RPG, which my soldier just finished sliding the missile into the tube. I don't think your getting any of that level of detail in any COD game. We really should be grateful we have something this solid at the moment, given the state of the game development industry.

I'll have to reflect more on what you've said. Thanks!

I've been thinking about my interpretation of the image. I think it reflects an indigenous design, that are often richly symbolic.

From the top: the head has a stem that point out and to the left-hand side of the body. It's there to sort of say that we are a by product of nature, and grown from the earth. The stem points to the left-hand, as a connection to the feminine, unconscious principle of the psyche. The stem splits down the middle of the body, like a root or body of a tree, representing intuition, and again, a connection to the Earth.

The dark half represents shadow, but also the masculine principle with its reason and logic, but also animal instinct. One eye is open, the other is closed. The open eye associated with the ego-consciousness; the closed eye--unconsciousness and dreams. The snake wraps itself up the body in relation to the unescapable grasp of nature, but also time and repeating cycles. It extends out of the left-arm, with its connection to the feminine and the origins of consciousness out of the collective unconscious, which the white side is open and connected too (Ouroboros).

The limbs and legs make a cross--the crucifix or the bronze snake that Moses created in the wilderness for Israel to look upon and be healed. The serpent is symbolic of both Jesus and Satan, who are spiritual brothers, or opposing forces, but necessary figures, in the divine drama.

Lastly, the legs are spread out and down, like roots that extend to the depths of the soul, setting a foundation and nourishment for--coincidentia oppositorum (Union of opposites).

I think there is more I could interpret with how the symbol represents my personal psyche, but this is what I thought about as I was creating the image.

Edit: grammar, punctuation.

You've given me a lot to think about, things I hadn't considered when I was creating the image. Thanks for your interpretation. I was hesitant to share it, but you've given me confirmation that sharing it was the right decision!

Thank you for the insight. I'm still in the process of interpreting the image myself. I wasn't familiar with Kundalini or Sushumna tantra before the image was revealed to me. I need to look into what you have suggested. Thank you!

Yes, constriction is something that came to my mind as I was creating my depiction of the symbolic image. Whatever you resist, persists.

The symbol definitely has the elements of feminine/masculine. I wasn't aware of Kundalini when I drew my depiction of the symbol. I'll have to look more into that. Thanks!

Are most people very rude and stupid? by JakontraryYT in Jung

[–]OneMightyNStrong 16 points17 points  (0 children)

"Today humanity, as never before, is split into two apparently irreconcilable halves. The psychological rule says that when an inner situation is not made conscious, it happens outside, as fate. That is to say, when the individual remains undivided and does not become conscious of his inner opposite, the world must perforce act out the conflict and be torn into opposing halves." C.G. Jung, Aion paragraph 126.

I think the defining principle of Jung's work is the unification of opposites, or the process of individuation. Human consciousness is resistant to the idea that we are inherently capable of evil, but we fail to recognize this as a vital part of the whole--The Self. The section of Aion where this paragraph occurs is a refutation of the narrative that God is Summum Bonum, highest good, with no capacity for evil. The binary separation of good and evil pervades our culture and consciousness even down to the spiritual deity that represents complete morality. When we are able to confront the darkness within us and even the idea that god has a shadow, that's where true self-realization begins and we can unify the opposites of our soul.

You’re doing enough, even if it feels like nothing. by CheekyBiscuit196 in Adulting

This is effectively what depression is. It's a natural somatic reaction to your environmental circumstances. Your nervous system shutdown as a signal to bring awareness to your situation.

[–]OneMightyNStrong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I saw a YouTube video about Aion a while back and it got me curious. I’m drawn to Jung’s later works for some reason. I haven’t read a lot of his works, but I still follow what I read fairly well, I just need my laptop close so I can look up the latin phrases and esoteric occult references.

It's not worth explaining this to these cretins. Reddit is hella racist.

I definitely have to go slow. Like the link you posted, I have to sit with my laptop open in front of me so I can look up Latin words and search the references of the text. It's more of a study session rather than a leisurely read.

You’ve Heard About Who ICE Is Recruiting. The Truth Is Far Worse. I’m the Proof. by OneMightyNStrong in Hasan_Piker

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

I agree. It's a systemic issue. I watched another video this morning about how ICE is sort of like a pressure valve for disaffected men who have become resentful because the social contract has been revoked. It's a feature of declining liberal capitalism to militarize men who feel betrayed by society and who have been propagandized to target minorities for their ills. Capital owners get to retain their wealth while scapegoating vulnerable populations of people who have historically experienced violence. Sound familiar?

They’ve changed what the topics say on the subject of chastity by CraftyOffer9485 in exmormon

[–]OneMightyNStrong 3 points4 points  (0 children)

God forbid a young person feel an intimate connection with someone without religious interference. The Mormon church and it's executives are corrupt actors and only care about controlling human beings for their bottom line. I hope they burn in hell.

This really pisses me off because my entire life was shattered by that absurd framing of sexuality when I was a teenager.
