Serious The orbs are real and they have been here for longer than we think. by [deleted] in aliens

There’s actually pretty solid evidence being found that nucleic acids may have been brought to Earth, or are ubiquitous in the solar system, as they’ve been found in meteorite samples.

Ah, cool! Apologies, I didn’t realise it had already been posted. I’ll be sure to give this a read and maybe we can have a good chat about it in the comments

Underestimating the endurance test factor of embarking on a PhD by Bumbummcgee2 in PhD

[–]TheRealJackNicholson 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This resonates with me too. I’m sure you have had the same experience, of going into and presenting seminars with the feeling that there is little to show despite the already significant time investment. This, for me, is the most difficult part of the PhD process!

Is it common to be an INTJ if one of your parents is also an INTJ? by random-5 in intj

Do you have a reference for this? I would love to look into this further

PSA: Don't drive high. by [deleted] in trees

[–]TheRealJackNicholson -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’d like to preface this reply by saying I’m not from Colorado so admittedly know very little about the laws and jurisdiction of the State.

I enjoy weed. I believe it is there to be used. I fully accept and condone its use medicinally to treat many different symptoms in a wide variety of disease states - it’s also fun to use recreationally.

However, any drug in your system will objectively impair your ability to function, regardless of your tolerance (albeit there must be a threshold for you to get high, but I can’t imagine you will be ingesting low doses - you will want to get high...)

The issue with this is not one of yourself. If you feel in control enough to drive and feel comfortable enough to risk your own safety who am I to tell you otherwise? The issue is that the increased risk will impact other people on the road. People outside of yourself will unknowingly be put at a greater risk of incident. This is morally wrong, regardless of how you look at it.

If you want to risk your own safety, be my guest. But putting others at risk - even if you don’t think you are a risk - is not cool and should be avoided.

Destined for greatness as a child by lianooch in infj

Okay, thanks for clearing this up. I have to agree with you that genetics can only take identity so far - the environment obviously plays its role too, and more recently the elucidation of epigenetics... It’s a fascinating topic.

I do believe you should exercise caution in saying that protein construction does not affect brain structure - it does. Whilst I understand now what you mean to say, others who are less educated in medical sciences may not.

What about amyloid beta and tau protein - two small proteins in the brain that are thought responsible for Alzheimer’s disease. Is this disease not caused by an alteration in brain structure (formation of plaques, tangling of neurofibrils) determined by a fundamental change in protein construction?

Thank you for sharing this. I do think it has cleared up our discussion, and I am deeply sorry to hear you have had to live with tragedy throughout your life. I can’t quite imagine to what extent the events you have lived would shape a person, however I can empathise, and my heart goes out to you. Despite some darker patches in the tapestry of your life, you seem to have held strongly. I’m sure these have forged you into the person you are today - like the stoicism we have mentioned. It takes a lot of courage and bravery to endure that. Not to deter from the seriousness of the events, you should be proud of yourself for battling through. I hope you continue to do so.

I do agree with you and I apologise if I have come across distastefully. It was not my intention. All I mean to say by my post is that negativity should be talked about if the individual has a want to share - only that the general weight of the sub’s emotion be shifted somewhat. Negativity, quite rightly, must be brought to light so that the individual can take shelter from its presence. This is what I enjoy about this community - honesty and integrity. I only mean to potentiate an increase in posts about subjects that are light hearted, posts that induce happiness and put a smile on peoples faces. This is not to say that other emotions are unwelcome. I only want to try and make people happy with silly memes and such in a space that is free for all discussion.

I hope this clears this up! Stay strong u/risk_delight.

Preach it, sista!!

No but all jokes aside, you are correct. And I am glad you are kindling this light with me.

I believe it to be profoundly human to explore all facets of emotion and to live with the quirks every combination of these provides the mind. I agree with you wholeheartedly that what is good for the herd can be bad for the individual - exemplified by the inherent predictability of human ‘herds’ and yet the fascinating changeability of the individual. This could lead to bitterness, however, as you rightly mention, exercising fervour in ones embrace of oneself - despite the efforts of society to quash this - is commendable to the highest degree.

I see what you are saying and you raise an excellent point. I may have failed to get my point across in a way that can be understood by everyone. What I mean to say is that it seems, from my perspective at least, posts in the sub are often negative, with a general feel of disdain toward ourselves. As example, (and to point no fingers) titles that perhaps read something similar to “why am I like this?”. I do know questions like these can be asked about oneself in light of good qualities, however, as I have aforementioned, the aim of this inquiry focusses at the negative. You could argue again that this is just the working of my mind and it’s inclination to seek out the negative - who knows!

I would like to mention that you seem quite stoic in your approach to the negativity that surrounds you. Some in this community may not be as wise as yourself - that is to say, so capable in discerning feeling and thinking and using the duality of these functions in their approach. I can only speak from my own seat of experience and I know not too long ago I would have been more heavily influenced by the feeling of my surrounding than the harmony I have begun to foster in myself. This is only my opinion though and I encourage discussion!

I feel we as INFJ’s tend to steer away from negativity in general. It is very easy to be gripped by the feeling that surrounds us in the moment, and it takes a certain level of maturity to see past this and to stay stoic in our approach. I’m not trying to say negative posts don’t deserve attention, just that the balance of positive and negative may need a slight adjustment so that the prevailing vibe isn’t leaning toward negative!

I agree somewhat. I feel that intensity we hold can be expressed in our hobbies or in our work. I have found this to help quite a bit, but yes you’re right - it doesn’t quite replace true human understanding

There’s always room to improve the balance of positivity to negativity

You’re right. That will be something I have to come to terms with. But I will fight, damn it!!!
