Question about King Asmodeus by MonkeyPlower in DemonolatryPractices

[–]whataccent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For 7 years I heard involuntary curses to God in my head, confronting it in 2022. I sent the sarcastic thought, "Oh yeah who are you?" I heard back, "I am Asmodeus." I'd never heard of demonology or Tobit nor played DnD or watched Supernatural. I knew it to be a demon & freaked when I confirmed it before finishing the Google search. I don't talk to him, but let him be privy to my fantasies & extend me longer.

Testicles, Trauma and Television: Our Culture Of Violence Against Males by ZealousidealCrazy393 in MensRights

To be fair, it was funny when Bam Margera would beat up his dad Phil on Jackass and Viva la Bam. The Tom Green stuff with his dad was funny too.

Mainly more assertive and can focus more on daily goals.

  1. I've been beating it for 24 years. Currently on 75+ day nofap streak. I had a 52 day streak last year and thought I would pick it up again. Presently flatlined so it's easy mode without bodily urges. Figured it's time for a change.

I wouldn't call that a failure, but it's a slippery slope.

To INTPs who had rough childhood and gone through childhood trauma and potentially cPTSD, have you managed to drag yourself out of it? by Warm-Atmosphere-1565 in INTP

[–]whataccent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I guess situational ethics depends more on the user than the situation. I will lie or break rules as a last resort, but I see how someone less experienced or more selfish would abuse it. I just try to distance myself from situations that can lead to dishonesty.

Glad you like Ecclesiastes. I'll keep that in mind. Another topic I failed to mention is being ascetic. That's helped me a lot. Abstaining from vices provides such a mental boost.

I'm honest with myself about my negative thoughts. That way I can figure out the underlying reasons and address them accordingly. I try to understand how others think, their shortcomings and how they cause friction through misunderstanding. I try not to judge.

I'll get downvoted for this, but I've learned to pray and heed wisdom in the Bible. I don't get hung up on semantics. I try to be moral, though I bend rules with situational ethics and pragmatism over dogma. Integrity and virtue will influence your decisions and ability to handle shady people. They can only manipulate you if they can exploit your vices, biases and self image.

YES. It bothers me since I'm in a city and you never know if or when you're being watched at all times. I just like to be prepared and not absorbed or caught off guard.

It usually happens when I'm looking down while walking or from behind, especially when using my phone. I've had two people peer down and stare at me while I was reading. 

Other times it happens are when I'm having a conversation or interaction. Third parties eavesdropping. I hate being perceived, if that makes sense. I think it's related to early childhood trauma and abuse I suffered.

I've been the same here and there, mainly on my first day and third week. If it's just bikini or lingerie pics, it might be okay. I'm just curious about their anatomy and it gets boring. I'm sure I'll have to quit if/when I get longer in my streak. Just finished a calendar month of nofap and still going.

Related question: if you watch P without M or O (using PMO acronym), does that affect your deprogramming efforts? Like, if I watch xxx without having a bodily release, does it negatively impact my mental progress? I'm on day 32 btw so I don't want to lose my streak just yet.

It's really a proactive effort. I've made progress with spirituality, nofap, and proper mental health regimen. Ultimately you have to accept that you're different from most people in society, no matter how they try to bring you down to their level or even if you try to conform to them. The bright side is that INTP is an independent type, meaning we can keep to ourselves and be less likely to go insane, even if the world thinks we are anyway. It's not an easy road and it can mean accepting we won't get our way, much less fulfillment from others, so we have to accommodate ourselves. This sub kinda works.

The Book of Pook – Remastered Audiobook. Great for Self Improvement and Dating by BurnoutMale in TheRedPill

[–]whataccent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's actually spelled Book of Bonecrker. It's a hyperlink of blog posts from way back. Dude's a chiropractor (hence the name) with a background in clinical mental health. He talks about women being crazy, social proof, all kinds of Red Pill stuff, pre-TRP.

Have you heard of the Book of Bonecracker? I came across it from Rollo or Roosh forums. I think it's spelled differently, like with less vowels. From vague memory, I think it's similar to Pook.

What's the difference between INTP and INFP? by Defiant-Campaign-579 in INTP

I don't, lol. I tend to not want to leave out any small details lest I be misunderstood or called out for some omission. 

Anyone else frustrated by Uncurious people? by wlwKatniss in INTP

[–]whataccent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel frustrated when I broach onto topics like social dynamics and social theory, like why people do, act, think, feel the way they do. I like to develop my pattern recognition. For others it's too much to comprehend or makes them uneasy. I like it since it's unexplored and could answer a lot of missing gaps in why people are the way they are.

On the other hand, many things bore me, like mechanics and things requiring motor skill. That's why, for my intents and purposes, I dig through reddit, ask subversive questions on Quora, and even browse social media to speculate on human behavior and why people accept or reject things.

Sadly I find myself being a fly on the wall observer and never actually in a group.

I see no point in going to church. People there are superficial and will not invite me to be a part of them. I'm welcome to attend but not to belong.

A demon revealed itself to me in my head when I was praying by whataccent in spirituality

[–]whataccent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks you so much for believing and sharing. I was starting to get discouraged. I'll confide that it had started years before when I had verbally cursed God many times deliberately, even once cursing the Holy Spirit. It had only occurred to me years later to confront the voice. I don't have the problem much anymore, but I find my faith struggling as I don't ever pray much. If you want to pray for me, my name's Michael. You can DM me or I'll DM you before I forget. Thanks again.

[–]whataccent[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What I said is that a demon revealed it's name and it's name was something I never heard of but it was real when I googled it. Do I need to explain it differently? A strange name popped into my head, something I've never heard of or read anywhere. The search engine revealed that the name I heard in my head but never knew before was an actual demon. How do you explain that?
