Can I ask what the triggers are? I've always struggled with this but about two years ago I had a big stroke that made things a lot worse. I've been taking a systematic kind of approach to making a system to counteract triggers that I might encounter. Maybe if I know the things that are getting to you or causing the emotions you're struggling with I can help! DMs are also open
How is Vader cool? I'm asking this as someone who knows nothing about Star Wars I just thought he was supposed to be space Hitler.
That's kinda odd I was genuinely going to defend the person you're talking to but I noticed their double whammy Apu/Crusader profile pic and saw they made a community for family values, generational wealth, and doomsday prepping. I don't even know what to think of them it's wild
Thank you for taking the time to respond and that makes a lot of sense! I really appreciate your perspective :)
I wasn't familiar with it either so here's something directly copy/pasted from Wikipedia:
Nitrogen fixation is a chemical process by which molecular nitrogen, which has a strong triple covalent bond, is converted into ammonia or related nitrogenous compounds, typically in soil or aquatic systems but also in industry. The nitrogen in air is molecular dinitrogen, a relatively nonreactive molecule that is metabolically useless to all but a few microorganisms. Biological nitrogen fixation or diazotrophy is an important microbe-mediated process that converts dinitrogen gas to ammonia using the nitrogenase protein complex. Nitrogen fixation is essential to life because fixed inorganic nitrogen compounds are required for the biosynthesis of all nitrogen-containing organic compounds, such as amino acids and proteins, nucleoside triphosphates and nucleic acids. As part of the nitrogen cycle, it is essential for agriculture and the manufacture of fertilizer.
It looks like something in the family phallaceae to me! I know them as stink horn mushrooms. They get into some pretty wild shapes and they smell dreadful
I've found my trans friends through school and through friends I already have! But if you want, I always love to have more friends :)
I have all of those games but I don't have as much free time as I used to. Lemme know if you wanna talk!
Yeah I'm not usually one to be like "oh civility is of utmost importance" and I recognize how necessary unpleasantness and sometimes outright force is necessary to enact serious change. At the same time I really respect people who recognize situations where everyone involved can gain from a mutual discussion. Thank you again for helping me out! It genuinely makes me want to talk more on this site haha
Thank you so much for that response! It really layed out what I was curious about in an accessible way. Also just wanna say you're super active on here so I see you a lot, and I'm always interested in your takes. I definitely don't agree with you on some things but I respect your viewpoints a ton because of how you back them up with good faith arguments. I don't need to hear more about small communities because I feel like you've outlined the things I was curious about and my general focus is more on how we can address larger societal issues, which I feel is best accessed through larger communities. But I definitely wouldn't turn down anything you have to say about small communities if you wanna get your thoughts out there!
I'm not super well read on this kind of thing but the idea interests me a lot! Can I ask you to explain the concerning effects of small, insular communities and gift economies? I'm not even certain what a gift economy is to be honest!
I've never actually heard arguments about AI art being a good thing! Could you explain your perspective?
Are there specific people you find end up being the recipients of your frustration? I did a lot of lashing out on undeserved people and I can talk about that if that's helpful!
