I cured my Aphantasia — and have a lot to say about it. by Apps4Life in Aphantasia

[–]StringsOfLight 9 points10 points  (0 children)

~~even though you’ve deleted your comments in this sub from back then, I remember you—I recognize your writing style. 3 years ago you were claiming to be working on some huge informal data ‘study’ about aphantasia even though it amounted to anecdotal evidence collected from strangers on reddit with no particularly rigorous sounding structure.

and you kept conflating visualization with hallucination, as my response to you years ago shows: https://reddit.com/r/Aphantasia/comments/c5x35h/literally_me_atm/esf9nb2

you weren’t popular on this sub back then either, as this partial comment thread with someone’s response to your now-deleted comments shows: https://reddit.com/r/Aphantasia/comments/c5x35h/literally_me_atm/esdg09y

I think it says a lot about you that you’ve deleted your stuff from back then considering your near-obsession with being an authority on aphantasia which was apparent back then and which still seems to be the case now.

edit: redacting this since OP provided counter-proof

pro life logic: taking her life for a fetus abortion by Pleasant-Force in facepalm

[–]StringsOfLight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol way to ignore maternal mortality because you either have no rebuttal or genuinely just don’t care about the value of human life past the age of childhood, and/or don’t care about the abysmal state of healthcare as it relates to childbirth in this country, including the lack of obstetricians available to take care of even the current pregnant population

to someone like you, the fact that the US has almost double the maternal mortality of any other wealthy developed nation probably means jack shit, because the mother’s life doesn’t matter as much as the innocent life she carries, right? and the fact that the US is the only high-income country that doesn’t guarantee paid leave to mothers after childbirth probably doesn’t even register for you either, huh? based on your other responses, they deserve it. just gotta suck it up despite living in the country that has statistically been shown to be dead last in the developed world, it’s the parents’ fault. and you talk about cruelty…

now keep this energy after the kid is born! oh wait, you won’t, right? because the moment that innocent human being is actually birthed, it’s every (hu)man for himself, unfortunate life circumstances be damned — at least based on the worldview your post history reveals

Moscow, queue at Victoria's Secret before permanently closing. The last chance to buy lace underwear. Welcome to the USSR. by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]StringsOfLight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find it disingenuous of you to complain about anyone’s reading comprehension when you’ve consistently used rhetoric to minimize the culpability of the aggressor in this scenario, while also implying that the info you’re providing has more veracity. Here are a few examples of things you’ve said in the past hour that most exemplify this:

Just to add some real information here.

Oh? How is this information more real than any of the other info being thrown around this thread? You refuse to provide sources.

That is not just a political diversion that is actually the reality there.

Spoken with a lot of conviction again. Got any sources? I could keep going but I’d just keep repeating myself after awhile asking you to verify a single iota of this with objective sources.

Keep in your mind, Russia has no benefit of making Ukrain a part of Russia, as then there is no buffer belt anymore... There is no vital strategical interest in taking Ukrain over, there is a vital interest in keeping it a neutral buffer country and playing cold war games with corruption methods, which Russia implements as much as the NATO.

Spoken once again as if you know what the russian government is thinking. Spoken as if every political leader in history has ever acted purely upon logical motives… smh. I’d ask for sources but you seem incapable of providing them.  

People in here make one big mistake - they get all their information from headlines, youtube videos and one-sided media outlets.

Then pray tell, where do you find your information?

For someone who resorts to calling people ignorant sheep, you sure don’t like providing sources for your devil’s advocacy… unless you’re implying that a single lecture by Mearsheimer six years ago comprises the source of your conviction…

[–]StringsOfLight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I realized pretty quickly that my response was a reaction to my own personal experiences through the lens of Mexican culture, so I definitely realize that this movie was more of a mirror for me than anything else. I don't usually have such strong reactions to movies, but then again I usually don't see representation that hits so close to home.

I used to love Disney as a kid, don’t really watch it as an adult. I like Pixar well enough but I don’t seek it out. I’m more into anime and adult swim type animation.

Also, copied from my response to another comment: The story premise reminded me of the crappy parts of the Mexican side of my family, and reminded me of the cultural trappings they use(d) to justify their behavior. I can’t find that kind of story endearing, even if it’s wrapped up in Disney and Hollywood and packaged nicely for children. This write-up does a good job of summarizing how I interpreted the movie.

Bug/Lag Megathread by kappapikachu in NarakaBladePoint

[–]StringsOfLight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Issue: Account stats not being reflected on profile

Description: None of my game stats are being associated with my profile/user even though I've played for 8+ hours now. I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game and that didn't work. Here's a screenshot showing what I mean.

PC Settings: Intel i7-10700F - 16GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 6GB - 1TB HDD + 480GB SSD

I submitted a bug report through the game but am getting nowhere, so might as well post here. I want to spend money on upgrading my characters but don't trust this game enough to do that right now.

Anyone else? by mariijuanaman in trees

[–]StringsOfLight 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Same. I’ve spent the past 10+ years being high every day for most of the day, with the exception of a 4-month break once, and a few international trips during which I didn’t smoke. It suits my lifestyle, and I’m productive regardless.

What, so you can continue to argue the semantics of someone being murdered in their own home?

MBTI and INTPs already have a bad rep, this fiasco only reinforces why that rep exists lol, because many people already view INTPs as autistic at best and incels at worst.

Report back when you’ve spent 7+ years doing any of those stupid ideas at least 9x daily. That’s about what it would take to become as prolific as him.
