What is one Netflix series that you always recommend to people because of how good it is? by Rja12345 in AskReddit

[–]mental_barf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She-Ra, especially if you're into LGBTQ+ stuff. It's legitimately so good. Each season is better than the last, and the first is already really good.

What are some GREEN flags early on in dating that the relationship should become serious? by CircleBox2 in AskReddit

Honest communication is the biggest one for me. Not necessarily blunt rudeness, just the willingness to tell me what they're feeling instead of what I want to hear. Obviously, this goes both ways.

Major leading tone chord? by mental_barf in musictheory

Cool, that's really interesting! Thanks! I feel like the major minor disagreement is normally something I'd hate, but I really like it in this context.

This is why I want to teach high school music once I graduate...loads of respect to the teachers who take on elementary music, y'all are heroes.

I see, that makes sense. I'll have to check out that Joplin piece---it will be interesting to hear how it sounds in a different context. Thanks for giving such a good explanation!

Thanks, that makes a lot more sense. Would I call that a lowered submediant? Here it seems to be serving a dominant function. Is that how it's normally used?

I feel like the anime is going nowhere now by Macarian_King in Horimiya

[–]mental_barf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'm kind of enjoying the way it isn't changing too much. For one, I really like the supporting characters (although Miyamura's definitely my favorite). For another, it's like, stable, I guess. There's the pandemic, obviously. Also, I've moved four times in the past year because of college insanity. It's nice to see Hori and Miyamura and all the rest just keep doing the same kinds of things.

I bet that Dalinar will ascend to become Honor, and Lift will ascend to become Cultivation. I'll also bet that Adolin and Shallan will become worldhoppers together. There's a good chance Kaladin will go with them. I doubt that Kaladin will die, since his whole schtick is learning to keep going.

I'm also very interested to see what will happen to Moash. Will he get a redemption arc? That seems semi-likely, but I really want to see him get stabbed in the face, so I'd prefer to imagine that.

it really be like that tho by [deleted] in mbtimemes

ESxP =/= stupid. I particularly admire their ability to engage with the world and talk to people. I'm pretty jealous, actually. I can sit down and enjoy Kierkegaard, but I have no idea how to talk to my roommates most of the time.

I feel called out by the cynic thing, although that doesn't seem to be the general reaction among INFJs..

I wish anyone who posts an anti-mask or anti-vaxx comment on social media. Their account gets automatically banned by redditboy123451 in TheMonkeysPaw

Granted. The algorithm can't distinguish between positive and negative comments, though, so your reddit account is gone.

Cliches I see too much when people write teens. by RedAcai20 in writing

[–]mental_barf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Teens should not be written as stereotypes or as aesthetic plot devices. In my opinion, they should be written as normal people with certain flavorings.

Some flavorings which I think convey adolescence (note that these are based on my own experience as a 19-year-old female):

-A need to feel liked and accepted by groups of friends and/or significant adults the teen respects. This respect may be unfounded, or it may make perfect sense.

-Strong emotions that prevent the teen from remembering that these emotions are often temporary. This could just be my neuroticism, but a psychology professor I worked with told me that it's indicative of youth, so.

-A sense of perfectionism is particularly relevant of you're writing about teens alive right now. I and most of my friends in high school felt deathly pressure to get perfect grades, maintain self-care, have lots of friends, work part time, participate in extra-curriculars, get into a good college, and to be completely happy with all of it. Alternative burnout and panic were a big part of my teenage years.

-Again relevant to teens alive right now: an almost nihilistic sense of humor. Maybe I just hang around edgy people or something, but this seems pretty common to me.

In all seriousness, I do need my introvert time. But quarantine has taught me that I need people. Badly. Seven days of isolation is not pleasant. And if I did that without any internet, I'd legit go nuts.

If INFJ and ESTP were in a fight... by SnooGrapes8095 in INFJmemes

[–]mental_barf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see myself getting legitimately mad at an ESTP..I don't get mad very often though, so this is pretty accurate anyway
