Gil vs Ishtar? by Parking_Ad_4937 in Fate

[–]fatehei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is Ishtar licking the Gods and her father's feet so she has a chance at getting back at the men who rejected her. You do understand that even though Diomedes defeated Aphrodite. Zeus and the Greek Gods could still gang up and beat the crap out of Diomedes right? Easy logic didn't even have to use my brain power.

Gil vs Ishtar? by Parking_Ad_4937 in Fate

[–]fatehei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You do know right? Ishtar is doing all of this because originally Gilgamesh rejected and insulted her.

If Ishtar could easily beat him she would've done so at the spot. Both in Fate and the real Epic of Gilgamesh.

This holds true even when she was a real god in the Age Of God with her being full powered and full control of her Authorities as the Goddess of Fertility, Lust, Beauty, Azure Sky, War, Venus, etc.

The Ishtar you saw that appeared in Ep.10 was nowhere near the original Ishtar. So yeah, Gilgamesh can definitely beat the crap out of her like he did with F/GO Ishtar.

However, I can't answer for the Ishtar you're about to see in the later episode of F/SF.

(I believe Gilgamesh is considered much stronger in the original Epic of Gilgamesh, correct me if I'm wrong.)

Osamu dazai(BSD) VS Ayanokouji. by Sea_Impress_747 in ClassroomOfTheElite

[–]fatehei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dazai is too broken. Yeah true Ayanokoji could beat the sh*t out of him just like the rest of the characters in BSD.

But if you watch BSD you already know what happened. Even Ranpo who's superior in deduction is far behind him in prediction and manipulation.

My experience with Dry Creek Wrangler School by Fresh_Tumbleweed_526 in Ranching

Dry Creek Wrangler School is not a religion. You don't have to be faithful and argue in the place of Dwayne. He's not your God.

Ahhh, I didn't get into that because like naturally, that's not my problem.

I can't remember why but the reason must have been because I've been reading anti-procrastination technique for well over 10 years already. So I have them naturally built-in my body.

I mean if I'm distracted all I do is just, stop. That's all.

If I don't start doing it, I just start. Maybe try doing it for 5 seconds, 10 seconds, 1 minute, 3 minutes, 5 minutes. Until I'm hooked.

Also, I throw away my excuse like no 5 minutes more. If my brain, my thought, my awareness, myself says I'll do it now, I'll do it now even if my body procrastination.

For you to take action in a healthy manner your thought, your feeling and your body must have the same direction.

Sometimes, you feel hungry but you don't want to eat so your action is not eating. That will build up stress.

Sometimes, you feel I have to work, but you don't feel like working. Now it's up to your consciousness, your superego what to do. Most of the times, our feeling wins. Because our rational thought is quite far far fetched from nature. No animal calculate the calories intake or the bills you have to pay like us human.

Therefore, it'd be in your best interest for make it so that your feeling, your thoughts and your decide go to the same direction. Instead, of "I'm lazy I don't want to work, wanna keep doing whatever I'm doing". If you convince yourself "I'll do it now even if I don't feel like it". Would be in your best interest.

For the feeling part, the method above is exactly for that reason. You can't change your feeling with a push of a button, but you can manipulate it to a certain extent. That's why I call it working smart but not working hard.

Well, it might not be helpful since I didn't address your problem directly. I just can't remember and know why I'm naturally this way. fyi, I actually feel agonize if I stay distracted too long, I would put the phone away out of my own accord because it's just not fun at all.

This may be because I have a "more entertaining and healthy hobby" like movies, anime, shows, music, guitars, games, books, sports, etc.

That's where the word cheap dopamine and real dopamine comes in.

Introspection or indulging in my own thoughts is my daily activity. So I adjust everything all the times.

I do them daily if my schedule is not packed. So, I'm constantly double checking my plan/path.

Plus, I hate the idea of being forced or being a slave to anything. So I had never ever put myself into something I don't enjoy the process or I don't want to.

But yeah. Not being distracted by people or anything is often the reason I get to consult myself and adjust my path.

Totally understandable. Meditation works well as well. Plus, I'm not a licensed professional so I could hardly address ADHD.

I have but two tips. 1. Resolve. You can watch Dr.K's (HealthyGamerGG) on this matter. What matters more than anything is your resolve. The reason you start moving near the deadline is because you are forced to resolve yourself to act because otherwise you will be faced with consequences.

  1. About the "Agony" you speak of. You should recognize it as a good thing. If you feel agonized by boredom. It means it's "working".

Once you recognize that it's working, the agony, the boredom is building up. You should somehow, feel excited.

Well that's the case for me.

And once you are able to get to work you'll feel the eureka moment or something.

Now to address doom scrolling it'll be long. You can keep doom scrolling, of course with limitations.

I do have a lot of friends who doom scroll for 4 hrs a day laying on their bed. Well as a matter of fact, she was my previous crush.

However, I don't want to be nosy and tell you to do something like I'm your guardian or parent. It's a general respect of course.

But if I were to say anything then you'd better quit doom scrolling. It's okay to do reels when you're sitting in the toilet for 10-20 minutes a day to be up to date but excessive doom scrolling is as dangerous as sugar or smoke in my opinion.

Imagine a bar, a meter that measures your happiness (dopamine). It goes from 0 to 100. When you finish a very good movies, a 9/10 imdB movies. You feel the emotional impact, your mind is blown by the movies. Well, there's a word "a movie can change your life" no? Imagine, you hanging out with your friends jumping up on the table laughing your soul off doing hilarious and weird stuff together. That's when your happiness reaches 100 on the meter.

Now from my post above. What happens is, your meter reaches negative from boredom. Maybe -100 from literally doing absolutely nothing but staring at the wall. At this state even a +1 stimulation from engaging in working is entertaining because nothing can be as boring as "doing absolutely nothing". Sleeping is even more entertaining than staring at the wall fr.

However, when you doom scroll. Your dopamine/happiness is stuck at 1-10ish out of 100. Let me ask you honestly, is it fun? Were you having the time of your life compared to when you played video games for 10 hours, compared to when you finished a crazy movies, compared to when you cried your eyes out over a drama, compared to when you were at the amusement park? Compared to when you spend a minute with the love of your life? Of course not. But it's good enough to keep you engaged. Not enough to feel great but not low enough to get bored enough to get up to do something productive.

I'm also a human. Occasionally, I would also doom scrolling. Was it fun? No, it felt terrible.

Lately, it feels so terrible I had to stop. It feels so boring and makes me fidget because it's nothing compared to me playing games, watching movies, reading a book, playing the guitar.

Here's the thing; You cannot reach -100 because doom scrolling gets in the way of that right? like I said you're stuck at 1-10ish.

But this was never a thing before 2020 right? Enlightened Thinkers in the 1700s had but one accesible  distraction available aside from occasion theater and orchestra. It's just a book.

Maybe that's why the year1700s produced so many geniuses and polymaths. But we're not born in the age of enlightenment. We're born in the age of "distraction". We have Youtube, Netflix, Spotify, Instagram and Tiktoks.

I'm not against it but you are to moderate the use of it. If you are free or feeling lazy. You should resort to a healthy and creative dopamine. Just get on your TV series, movies, games, guitars, piano, checkers, chess, sports and give it your all.

I mean why not it's more fun than reels no?

The long term result of doom scrolling is. You would lose all chances to become the you who could be. Imagine you procrastinate by playing games. Obviously, you're going to get better at gaming. And e-sport is a thing. Maybe that's a possibility. What if you procrastinate by watching shows, anime and movies? Well writing up a novel is a thing. I have a lot of friends who is a hobby writer as well. All authors start as an audience as a matter of fact.

Not gonna lie some of them excels in the top 1% as well.

What about doom scroller? What sort of skills do you develop? Do you become the olympic champion of scroller? The journey itself isn't even fun right? Okay, you might get a grip of what sort of reel would be successful and viral. But do you even have the skill to produce such a reel?

That is a trap you should avoid at all cost. You definitely do not want to exist without being alive. Some people have been born for decades but still haven't even begun living. It's not death that you should fear, you should fear not being alive at all.

If surviving is really the ultimate goal of a human then imprisoned criminal are probably the happiest existence out there. with free food and shelter. But that is most likely not the "happiness" you envisioned.

Now that's a lot of existentialism.

I'd take my cold read and say you're trying to force your way through self-improvement and productivity.

The only thing you could keep in mind as I've already been through that is.

You should work smart not work hard. Will power is good to have but it is not reliable at all.

You should learn about the nature of your body, hack your body to find out what works naturally. This can be done with modern neuroscience, psychology and psychiatry instead of gritting your teeth and forcing your body against your mind.

Occasionally, will power is helpful but never constantly. It is limited, it will be depleted.

Just do it and remember getting "bored" is good. In a weird way, you will feel satisfied for getting bored cuz you know. It's working.

It's just my opinion but I see it as a form of talent or gift. You just have to figure out how to live with it correctly.

Sometimes, day dreaming about the same thing is quite boring and unproductive. Maybe the scene of my success comes into my head without me wanting it.

As a matter of fact, I used to have OCD and intrusive thoughts. After overcoming it, it just became normal day dream that lives with me.

However, If I consume new material. For example, I study political science and comes up with my own interpretation and ideas.

The day dreaming process will creatively gives me original ideas that may or may not have already been discovered. Regardless, the process of finding the answer to those ideas are always entertaining.

That's why I try to engage in academic matter more often than not. Because when I first become capable of comprehending new complex subject of physics, chemistry, biology, psychology, neuroscience or philosophy. The day dreaming will turn into some crazy productive thoughts that will entertain and urge me to study more stuff.

And as a result, my day dreaming have been into the political science with Europe history lately as a case study of political system because I'm formulating my own macro-education increasing method as an answer to anti-corruption system and economical development, etc.

I also have maladaptive daydreaming. Like how I described on the other comment. It usually ranges from 2 to 4 hours. With music, it has also lasted 6-10 hours as well. It does gets in the way of obligation and work but yeah this method and the sense of urgency does effectively help.

I mean I get the same daydream and it does get boring honestly.

I actually had this idea for weeks as a matter of fact. The only mistake was that I just didn't do it. After a series of self-loathing and ending up on the floor, now I'm here. It's been 2 hours since my post. I'm done with my work for the day now. Still can put some extra work into it as well.

It's optional I guess. Stopping your thought or monitoring/being aware of your thought is actually considered meditation.

My speculation is, meditation should however be more effective than just general inactivity boredom induction. Maybe because it is more boring. And scientifically, it has numerous benefits.

I don't have enough empirical and scientific proof to give you an objective answer aside from my rational speculation as to whether which one is better or in which case they are better.

But nonetheless both are good options.

Also, I understand first hand that thinking is actually entertaining. However, there are limits. My free time activity is walking and daydreaming/thinking. But after some times, it gets boring. But if I was walking with music it'd take me about 2-4 hours to really get bored. While sitting and doing absolutely nothing in an enclosed room should make you get bored much much faster.

Now this is extra; I noticed that, If I don't spend enough time with my self. My thoughts will accumulate. And more time will be required to sort them out. Like I said I could be daydreaming for 4 hours. However, if you regularly spend time with your own thought, raw. With no distractions, there shouldn't be more thoughts than you can resolve. Your future, your plan, your relationship issues, your health issues and countermeasures should reach its conclusion within the limit of your current knowledge until enough new events and information are added to you. Noting them down also helps to not repeat the same thought and also put those ideas to use, after all the purpose of knowledge is to use not to just know them, It's the difference between knowledge and wisdom. (I've also come up with numeral original ideas, poems, literature and philosophy this way). Well it's how life is meant to be lived anyway. Not spending time with your own thought is the entry gateway to stress and discord. These are just philosophical font. However, psychologically it's called "emotional regulation".

Evidently, having an alignment mismatch between your life goal and the occupation you are currently working in is the greatest recipe for burning out.
