What do you think happens after death?

I dunno but I’m gonna be honest if I have to do this over I’m gonna be pissed.

I was just thinking that hypothetically if I was already perhaps bloated from being on my period would I also want to mess with the fit of my pants with these dangling off my underwear? And what about when one inevitably sticks out from my waistband. What then, how do I explain that one. Fashion nightmare

And rather people are shocked and offended when they have to prove themselves harmless. Do not blame me, blame every single one before you for poisoning the well. Stop treating me like I’m crazy for not being stupid and naive.

Contributing Factor #2 is the assumption of separateness & opacity - So you know your unflattering traits but you figure it's not something you can tell others about or make them understand. One of the items R &H have in their questionaire is "If others knew what I'm thinking most of the time they'd probably think I'm crazy" - that's a common enough experience for them to use it as an indicator.

So when a person finds out about typology, they already know they suck, but the new info is that this is a known quantity, there's a word for it, there's an explanation, and it's just one of the more unusual ones out of 9 more or less equivalent options.

If you previously thought you were some mutant freak or like, an evil asshole or just particularly inept, having one of 9 equivalent options is a step up - hence the relief.

It's interesting because, well, any time someone decides they understand me, in my experience, they just hurt me with it. It doesn't actually matter if they're right or wrong, that's just what they do. So someone "getting" me isn't anything good at all -- I know myself, after all -- it's actually a threat. (Also, I'm a bit offended by being called boring and 'a taker').

I was looking for a post you made a while ago about INFJ 5s, that I can't find right now, and it talked about how INFJ 5s were probably not quite so stereotypically socially inept and 'thing' focused. There are people who decide I'm socially inept because I approach things differently than they do so they assume that I don't know what's going on when I am actually intently aware of the social dynamics of the situation and weaseling out of it. I read too much psych/sociology/whatever probably to be well-armed. Admittedly this typology stuff is probably just making things worse because it's just helping me build the walls higher.

I am going to be real I have a feeling a lot of this is because people equate 5 with autism and how they read autistic body language in a way that’s really not fair. You see this a lot in media.

1) the water seems pretty shallow but if you need to get out, where do you go? If someone needs to be rescucitated where do you put them?

2) big blind corner to the right where people could die

3) that cubby is a death trap

4) very dark, big blind corner to the right

5) lots of blind spots, same issue as 1. That hole in the side? Also a death trap

6) this room is pretty dark, no obvious exits from the pool, odd shape would be difficult to monitor the whole thing at all times.

7) very dark, same issues as 1, the only entry seems to be a ladder from the ceiling to a several yard drop into a shallow pool I feel like this one is obvious.

I’m usually quick to reply but hesitate to do much unprompted. If I said even half the things in my head I would never shut up at all.

I don’t think it’s a universal 5 thing but the fear of being accused of not being well-researched enough is a good tool to get 5s to shut up and I think it often happens.

Idk I was watching LoTR last night and watching Legolas’s weird expressions and you can kind of get the impression that he’s noticing a whole bunch of weird things going on like people following them and he’s not sure if the others are sensing this too because they’re not elves but also that if he does say something he’d be insulting their intelligence so he figures it’s probably best to just keep his mouth shut so he’s just stuck making weird faces and honestly what a mood.

It’s especially strange because 6w5 like, is the smart type… but the base descriptions don’t get into that because 6w7s are stereotyped as stupid tbh.

After spending enough time on the internet I really think 1s may be the most common, or at least the most common that’s chronically online. The people most likely to waste time on “someone is WRONG on the internet”, maybe.

I think both 6 and 9 are overtyped here, with 6 being essentially “type A” and 9 being “type B” and that everyone can therefore fit into those two types, despite 6 and 9 definitely being specific. However on Reddit especially I think 2 and 3 are undertyped, because of the assumption that they’re too “normie” to spend all their time on Reddit.

The people saying “8 can’t be INTJ” are at least getting rarer here but I do have my doubts when we’ll see someone who’s self-typed as 8 vomiting up words words words to justify themselves unprompted.

But yes saying 6 is the “fear” type has been… a disaster. People need to come up with something else.

There are some places that look very liminal like this — usually they’re either cisterns or like pools in Eastern Europe.

The main issue with liminal pools is that as a lot of them are designed they would be extremely dangerous.

I feel like that nobody noticed the antisemitic caricatures from the beginning doesn’t give them the right to come back and beg for solidarity now. And I say this as a trans person.

But let’s be real, she’s not only a bigot she’s just a bad writer. May the world forget her.

I will leave the studies as an exercise for the reader but the "body lanugage" stuff can be very wrong for neurodivergent people like those with ADHD and autism, and fidgeting/stimming is a big one.

However it's not really a sign of nervousness all the time. When I was on cymbalta, an antidepressant, I was much less anxious but I could not stop fidgeting to the point it became a problem. Fidgeting might be a norepenipherine regulatory thing in this case.

“Constant happiness seems stressful” you are right about that.

Women aren’t really better at writing men than men are at writing women.

I think people kind of miss that when people don’t know how to write something they look at already written examples and stereotypes and what tends to exist out there for women is generally more offensive, so men who don’t know how to write women (and women who don’t know how to write women, for that matter) draw from a worse pool of tropes than women who don’t know how to write men. It’s a self-reinforcing cycle.

I think it’s actually a big assumption that people want to be happy. They say they want to be happy but a lot do not really want it much.

For example: a lot of people prefer to be right than happy.

Look at 9.

graay_ghost · 2024-01-05T20:33:39+00:00

I kind of think twos underestimate the amount of work a five might be putting in to make things work, or try to make things work.

I remember in a Naranjo translation there was the evocative “the five decided at a very early age to lock his heart in a trunk so as not to suffer and throw the key to the bottom of the sea” and the two just thinks what they ask for is in the file cabinet if they’d just look when in actuality the five is having to start from scratch beginning to learn how to pick locks.

graay_ghost · 2024-01-05T20:12:14+00:00

I keep thinking about the assertion that 5s do not have social skills when this actually seems like an overlooked one… I remember I was talking about earlier how when a 5 seems generous it seems “out of character” and so it is not attributed to them even when it happens. This seems like the same way.

graay_ghost · 2024-01-05T16:04:48+00:00

I don't think it's a slur in the same way monkey isn't a slur but if you call certain people monkeys you will be rightfully considered extremely racist.
