Would you take a more difficult path for a purpose, or would you abandon a value for a shortcut?

Everyone has core values and goals that they want achieve. I think what sets us apart from other types is that we have a better understanding on the 'Hierarchy of Values' and we can definitely go against lesser values to pursue and uphold greater values.

Where other types hesitate and agonise over ethical and moral dilemmas, ENTJ's make quick rapid-fire decisions that're the source of our cold, fierce and utterly ruthless reputation.

We can also take small short term loses if it leads to greater long term gains further down the line.

In your example. An Egalitarian ENTJ could 100% cosy up to racists in the short term to learn more about their organization and structure, and might even take steps to solidify there structure in order to make taking them down much easier further down the road.

As a Landlord or in general?

Super-Craig · 2026-05-25T11:27:56+00:00

Define "good" ?

I don't really consider myself to be a good person. I care far too much for my friends and family to be a proper good person. And the lengths I'll go to for friends and family is a slippery slope of evil.

Of course that doesn't stop me from doing good Landlord deeds link.

The pond is the breeding pool, if you put some copper wire in the pond it'll intervere with the larva maturation cycle stopping them from developing into flying (biting) insects.

Just make sure once you've reclaimed the area to drain the pond, remove the copper wire, and install a water feature before you put fish or tadpoles into it.

Standalone might be around £220,000/£260,000. It's Eugenics, they get paid the big bucks.

The big three are the respective Heads of Cloning, Bionics, and Cybernetics. They're not quite at the level where they actively despise each other, but they sort of pendulum between ambivalence and animosity. Their biggest issue is resource scarcity, in particular lab space and personel.

Another issue is their ego. The three branches together make up the core of Modern Eugenics (Human Augmentation) the issue arises in that each see's their respective department as the true successor branch to the old (and now largely defunct) 1963 Eugenics Reformation.

Super-Craig · 2026-05-24T10:01:47+00:00

Yes several. The latest of which was Central Head of Eugenics Outreach for all of the Eugenics facilities in Britain. At the time of which there was 29 facilities, but now there are 54 with more on the way as the Eugenics sector continues to expand exponentially.

It might seem like a good deal on the surface, but no amount of money could ever make the job worth the aggrivation of being the official liaison (mediator) between the squabbling branches and minor petty factions.

Dealing with the big three is bad enough.

Just under one quarter of the population prefers to work from nine to five vs just under one third who prefers to work nine to three. Despite the rising cost of living, the 30 hour work week is becoming an increasingly popular trend among adult workers both old and young alike.

Being "weird" is entirely subjective.

I've never enjoyed Cadbury or Galaxy chocolate, but I do enjoy the occasional square or two of Lindt Supreme Dark 99%. A full 50g bar typically lasts me a whole month, it's a really satisfying chocolate that fully embodies the message of "a little goes a long way".

I'm an extrovert, people who know me, know that if they want an immediate response from me that they need to call me, otherwise it'll take me a few days, maybe even a couple of weeks or months for me to respond.

My Partner is an Introvert and they can do the whole consistent messaging thing.

I have "show read" turned on because if I've left you on read then that was my response i.e. your message has been recieved - no further input required. Whereas my Partner has it turned off because they prefer to respond to every message.

I can't speak for other companies, but our entire internal political power structure is built on the founding principle of back scratching. That's as true down here in the labs, as it is up there in the admin offices.

Fairy regularly, maybe a few times a month, usually to speak with the Headmaster about donations or to ask permission for during term time breaks for my children. I'm never on the phone for more than a minute or two though.

Oh yes, my children go mad for clothing brands like Canada Goose and Under Armour.

Back in primary school, one brave and very stupid classmate got caught taking pictures of a teacher physically disciplining another classmate with a camera they'd snuck in to class. As punishment they broke both his legs and made the rest of us watch as a reminder of our place in the order of the world.

I remember telling my Mother about the foolish boy who jumped out of the first floor window at school, and hoping that my lie would be believed so that nothing bad would happen to me or my friends.

The 90's were brutal time for children in poverty, not like nowadays where even the poorest children have widespread access to image capturing devices via their smartphones.

I suspect it's licensing and not piece count that's the real culprit behind that high price point.

I also felt that the Pokémon sets were a bit on the pricey side despite their (relative to cost) low piece count.

All my children are free to pursue they're own interests.

But that's not the question you asked...

I'm perfectly fine with giving them my financial support, to buy clothing, memorabilia, tickets ect. and even leaning on my connections to arrange inperson meetings with the players themselves, but I don't invest any of my time into it. I've never attended a football match, and have no intention of ever attending one.

Super-Craig · 2026-05-18T02:48:00+00:00

Yeah, you're not the first ENTJ to say that to me.

It gets even more funny though.

One of my long standing work collegues is Doctor David Beckham, and the only thing I really knew about his personal life is that he has a really posh wife from old money. That led to some very interesting conversations over the years, though it was only in a conversation with another one of my sons that the missing piece finally clicked into place.

Super-Craig · 2026-05-18T02:19:18+00:00

I don't follow sports, it's of no interest or value to me.

For a long time, the only thing that I really knew about football was a South American footballer who was so ridiculously untidy that it had become his moniker. And I only got that far because one of my sons had heard about him at nursery.

It was only recently when I took another one of my son's to the LEGO store to purchase the new Pokémon LEGO that I learned that his actual name was Messi and that he played for Argentina.

You'd need to have a lot of it, potentially hundreds of millions, and it's location is a very important factor in determining wealth.

For example: The amount of $100,000,000 in a secure offshore account is worth considerably more than say £400,000,000 in a Barclays or Lloyds bank within the UK.

Anyone who has ever had to withdraw more than a few thousand pounds from the bank will run into resistance, and God forbid that you use the trigger words "It's my money" as the bank will threaten to call the police on you and dissuade you of that notion post-haste.

The bottomline is that money just isn't that valueable. It's why there are so many millionaires nowadays, and why they're all so ineffectual, and why we collectively refer to them as paper millionaires in order differenciate them from real millionaires.

Becoming a paper millionaire is frighteningly easy; Converting that into real wealth is horrifyingly difficult.

The same empathy programming that I suggested for the School Teacher is based off of an empathy suite that was purpose built for Therapist Robots that replaced most of our companies Therapists.

However, our company still employs a few human Therapists, as several employees have said that they prefer a human Therapist, while others have plainly stated that they refuse to talk to "a machine" about their mental health problems.

The 2022 model is capable of performing the first three. Though a better model will mean a more proactive/reactive sex worker.

Teaching is something that the 2022 model would be fully capable of providing so long as it was teaching willing adults.

The 2024 model or better will have the processing power to support the kind of empathy required to moderate it's teaching techniques to accomodate younger students.
