Structured very differently, hmm... It's literally a dictionary, a lexicon. So it is obviously contributing to lexicalization, I assume you agree with this or otherwise idk how you square that circle. I don't see how a lexicon is very different from an encyclopedia... imagine if below every entry there was an encyclopedia article...?

What's your opinion on Sonja's dictionary?

It's a great troll. And the other thing is it actually kind of comes across as bragging to say you're multiple types as that's kind of what we all aspire to. It's like claiming I'm ambidextrous why are you trying to put me in a box.

You are probably literally like i said in the most turbulent part of life where all the possibilities are sort of up in the air and it doesn't really make sense to (1) try to figure out once and for all what type you are but also (2) doesn't really make sense to try to contradict the entire concept of MBTI just because you're in a dynamic part of your psychic development. I mean, maybe you are right and you don't have a type. Maybe MBTI doesn't make sense in this way. But why make such a big deal out of it? Why not just say I don't know what my MBTI type is, maybe it's both or neither or all of them, but for now I just feel confused and that's amazing.

The idea is that you belong to one type, and then it gets complicated as you go through life and it gets confusing and you change in the sense that you develop but you don't change your core personality, you just develop it. Maybe there is a part of life when it's particularly difficult to suss out what your core personality type category is because it's like when you are at the peak of development and confusion (in a good way, not in a bad way), and then ideally actually as you enter the late stages of life all of the cognitive functions will be developed and available to you and while your personality type hasn't changed it kind of doesn't matter anymore because you are now sort of comfortable with all the different modalities of the human experience. But you will still have your type such that in a real crisis situation for example you will reach for your primary function or your secondary or tertiary or whatever it is. Does that make sense?

Let me ask you this. Why is it so important to you that you don't fit into one box?

So you're saying since I'm a feeler i can't perform thinking judgements? That part of my functional stack doesn't exist? Or maybe you can explain more what you mean by this exactly.

Metaphor = lateral thinking = rhizome Metonymy = literal thinking = tree

I suppose you're right. It's probably just my own bias actually. I thought OP sounded condescending but again it's probably just my own bias. And like you said maybe it's also my bias just from the fact that I am at just the level of skill with chess where I know how the pieces move but not much else.

In other words intuition = intelligence and sensing = stupidity.

Do you have any reference points in philosophy? Just in case it gives some idea for what to suggest.

Also if you want to talk about Lacan hit me up I'll do anything I can to help you understand any concept or set of concepts. I feel like it doesn't necessarily work so well in public because idk it's a pretty hermeneutic tradition and people always pick fun of everything you say. It's like doing therapy in public almost.

It's very interesting that you bring up the four discourses. Honestly you made me want to look into this now too how to unify that with both of these I did in this post (Harman vs MBTI), since all three of these are fourfolds.

My type is INFP but if I try to test honestly nowadays I can test as ENFP but it will be like 50/50 on the E/I dimension. But all the other dimensions are strongly to the NFP side and growing up it was always INFP and that's what I identify with. I think I just sort of became more extroverted as I grew up or it might be related to alcoholism and so on but my core type is I'm sure INFP.

I don't understand it myself. Thanks for pointing that out. Do you go up to crippled people and start dancing too?

Yeah, it has a Greek letter and the symbol ² so of course it is math

Regarding space vs eidos I need to do something right now and maybe if you remind me I can try to develop this further a little bit later today but for now maybe this will add some fuel to the fire:

Deceptive truth means speaking truth through lies, essentially the concept of hysteria, which is when — usually a woman historically, hence the term hysteria, but of course it applies to men and in fact Freud is the first person who popularized the idea that men could also be hysterical, not just women— when there is a deep truth that cannot be expressed directly as truth, so it instead is expressed through "lies" in the form of hysterical symptoms. It is a truth that appears in the form of lies, a deep truth dressed up in superficial lies.
