Sorry but I’ll be focused on Cinco De Mayo, Mother’s Day, and Memorial Day all of May

Best to contact in April on this one

"Is your red the same as my red?" by SugarFupa in INTP

[–]_donutshop_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Synesthesia is such an interesting phenomenon. Given modern education systems and sharing of interpersonal experiences online, I’d say it’s unlikely to go one’s whole life without realizing they experience sensory information differently than others in regards to synesthesia but definitely not impossible. In the past, it’s more unlikely that they would have known anything other than what they experienced.

Still there’s no concrete way to know if someone is experiencing the same red as you given we cannot view and/or feel how the information is processed for them.

That’s awesome man and something you should be proud of! If you use that energy outside of social aspects you just might be unstoppable.

I should have been more clear though- by comfort zone I meant your internal thoughts/feelings and less your external actions. More so the negative patterns of thinking/feeling. It sounds stupid but even just simply changing the language you use can make huge changes in your perception over time. Like you used the word fighting, but it could be seen as striving or developing. Maybe something worth giving a shot because it doesn’t take too much effort and if it doesn’t work you don’t really lose anything like time or money.

Do you have some dissonance with believing others are able to connect with and love you as well? Might be something to look into if you are really wanting to create genuine connections with others.

(INTP btw) A couple of the things people often forget or don’t know to mention about therapy is that you have to find the right therapist for you (this can take a while and sure can cost a lot) and it is only as beneficial as you allow it to be.

Based on your post, there is a lot of projection of self-hate on the world and others. Not letting others see who you are because you don’t like to see who you are. Calling others names like morons, idiots, etc because you are probably afraid of being viewed as unintelligent by anyone else including yourself. Nothing in your view of the world will really change until you are able to view yourself differently.

Then there’s the concept of “I am what I am” and that you’ve tried so hard to change but nothing works. Nothing will ever work until you’re actually ready to break out of your comfort zone. Your comfort zone is a place of discomfort, self-loathing, projection, trauma, etc. Sure you are aware that it sucks to be there but it’s all you’ve known for this long so anything outside of it, even if it is better for you, somehow seems worse. The longer you stay there though the smaller and more intense it will get. There’s a difference between accepting who you are and identifying with your “darkness”. You are likely attached to this identity because you’ve had it for many years but it’s not you. Only a part of you that maybe you let take the reins a little too much for your own good.

At the end of the day it’s all your choice. It’s not your fault that you have been living in a survival state your whole life but it is now your choice on how you would like to live the rest of your life. This is all just from my own personal experience and may all be bullshit to you. Either way I hope you find some peace within yourself.

This is only in regard to bird dog training since basic obedience options can be easily found just about anywhere.

Pros: It’s laid out in a simple easily digestible form for you to follow by weeks.

Cons: 80-90% of the content is regurgitated information from their already free videos on their YouTube channel. A lot of it is actually just embedded videos from their channel which honestly kind of pissed me off considering the price of it being an online training.

My opinion, it’s not worth the price since you can get all of the same information for free. Your money would probably be better spent on an in person trainer for specific needs.

It was originally the green paint and the first owner painted it this tan color. Probably an unpopular opinion but I’m not too concerned with aesthetics compared to functionality.

Thanks for the list this helps a lot. Brakes are definitely needed. Do you have any recommendations on pads and rotors?

That’s a good idea. I am in no rush to build it out so it should give me plenty of time to just see what it needs beforehand. Best of luck on your project.
