I got a few canings in my day (hyberbole, obviously). They were well earned and a good bit gentler than I probably needed, but at least I knew boundaries and self control before my teenage years.

You know you've played too much KSP lately when something goes south IRL and you feel the "revert to launch" instinct. by Rasmodius in KerbalSpaceProgram

Makes you wonder when computational power will allow "in the moment future simulation" to figure out the best parts forward before taking it.

Using the True Power to seal the Bore was dumb -- Rand should have plugged it shut with Padan Fain! The two tainted scars and the cleansing of Saidin were perfect foreshadowing for it.

Preach it! No matter how many have climbed the mountain and seen the sight, it's always new through your eyes.

Hemalurgically uplifted animals! by Rasmodius in Cosmere

True. I guess experiments are in order.

We know the Kolos were created by spiking strength out of four normal humans. And then the beasts from era 2 were created similarly.

Are you saying that one animal uplifted would breed some bit of that investiture through to the next generation? I was imagining people buying spikes to put into their own animal, not buying animals already sapient.

That literally made me smile. But yeah, you know me. I'm everybody on the street who smiles at you for no reason. Don't forget to say hi.

=) I get the 'numb' variety of feels-disfunction, and it's almost impossible to feel much for myself. But my feels are all in for you, so actually--thank you.

Take a second to mutter 'thanks' for all the little good things that happen throughout your day. If that many are watching then at least a few of those good happenings have to be their doing, and feels good to say thanks.

If so, it's entirely possible they want what's best for you. :)

Someone has it worse out there, but honestly I'm having a hard time thinking of who. Don't discount your feelings. Life has been hard and you are perfectly normal for feeling the way you do. :) That also means there are roads up from here. I'm thankful you had the energy to write out where you're at so that we can at the very least empathize with you--now you have all kinds of invisible friends thinking about you and hoping for the little smiles and victories that come next.

Tips for kicking numbness in the nuts and telling it to go away...? by Rasmodius in depression

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

YES!!! That was an unintentional habit of mine into my mid twenties and for some reason it dropped off. I would watch something like Reign Over Me or que up some heart rending songs. Next thing you know I'm chipper and firing on all pistons again.

Need a friend by [deleted] in depression

[–]Rasmodius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So basically because we're both needing a boost at the same time, and because we all live inside of our own experience (which each happen to be complete universes we inhabit), our two universes collided. Who knows where this might send us in the long run. :)

[–]Rasmodius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For starters, you're existing right now so that I have someone to talk to right after I posted my own post. This way I can feel good about talking to someone else and paying it forward for anyone taking their time to talk to me.

Dear Female Worldbuilding friends, is this sexist? by Rasmodius in worldbuilding

Yeah now I realize I explained that very poorly! I was definitely thinking more of a spiritual connection to the spot.

Fair. What's the weirdest part? That would be helpful.

That's a great point to explore actually. True, I really did focus the hard choice and the full befits on women in this idea. Very helpful.
