At age 16, you shouldn’t be playing pretend
At 16 you should be able to differentiate when it’s the time and place for it. Theater, role playing games, and plenty of other outlets exist for it as an adolescent and adult because it is healthy and fun to continue doing into adulthood.
Exactly. Sad to see that I’m downvoted because people can’t understand that there’s a time and place to let the mind work.
It's probably because your comment leads everyone to believe that you think that the time and place are "never" and "nowhere"
Interesting how the tables turn isn’t it? Not putting thought into a comment and instantly making an assumption rather than thinking about it or even, and I know this is radical nowadays, asking somebody to expand
That's an interesting way to say that your comment was worded very poorly.
Maybe put that thought into your own comments before you post them.
Pretend is where most great ideas are birthed. I’m sorry this timeline sucks so bad it sucked that out of you. But yeah, time and place, etc to quality that.
There’s an obvious difference between thinking and Naruto running down a hall wearing a ninja headband and doing handsigns for a jutsu.
Why not? I'm fucking 40 and while I wouldn't say all the time, I do it any time I think I can get away with it generating humour to boot. It works cuz THAT'S my excuse. Loki backs me up nearly every single time. How do you think I survived a helmet-less head injury after getting hit by a car on my bike? Even my Nuersurgeon expected nothing and 3 mo this later was exponentially MORE shocked I woke up at all let alone able to speak even if back then I couldn't finish an entire sentance.
Jesse what the fuck are you talking about
It's like The Stone and the Flute by Hans Bemmann. Totally a fantasy until you realize what level truth is being given with no interest or need for facts. Such being unrelated to what is given.
And no, I am not a Changeling. I'm a CoX. Not that you'll ever catch those references. It's not necessary.
Jesse, what the fuck are you talking about
Ascension.
Word !
If you've just recovered from the head injury you probably shouldn't strain yourself too much
I just finish my sixth year.
I’ that makes me so happy. To the devil with the excuse. I felt like it also works; but it’s good to have an excuse when the nails start coming out of pockets, unless you bliss right up over everyone who’s got the nails and hammer.
My excuse was was just a step in the path that improved my life. For as horrible as it occured, everything else got exponentially fantastically luckier than that one moment was unlucky. I could list a dozen amazing things that came together right therein after. The guy stuck around, had insurance, got me an ambulence...many many more things just lined up to improve my life right therein after.
Hanged man energy (hanging on the tree of life upside down) gives that perspective, doesn’t it? It took me kissing death on the mouth a few times before I got the perspective I really needed, though. Whatever, as long as we do the work to get there after the stepping stones appear. They’re not there to walk on themselves!
Lighter than a feather feels great!
If I get the cash and a good drawing beforehand to be sure a lot of the tiny little details apart of it are done correctly beforehand I'll have exactly that tattooed on my back. The hanged man.
Boss Daddy af! Would love to see a photo, if you’re game.
I know what I want but haven't gotten it even drawn beyond some incomplete sketches.
Key points though:
The cross is upside down, posted on a round stone Pentagram "window" pointing up. The top of the cross ends in the middle of the pentagon in the center Through the window you can see an almost completely waned moon crescent but through that bright bit you see a crow facing the foot of the hanged man.
Outside the stone crawls a dragon biting his tail on the top right (from your perspective of viewing such). His wings hang on the left. The left leg is obviously bent with the foot just "above" the other knee. The right foot is nailed. The hands clasped over the chest just between the nipples and the belly.
There's more I'm still debating details of when I get to find an artist. Some I won't put out there til I get it too.
It sounds like a mixture of the oroboros, the Ace of Pentacles, the Five of Cups, not-quite Yggdrasil/Petra’s cross, and Odin. Tbh it sounds dope af! I’m totally vibing on the pictures in my head. I’m adding Ogun’s face on the Ace of Pents, in my mind’s eye, but you do you! As I said, it sounds dope!
I live on SSDI. I doubt i'll get the money together.
Can you draw? Is there some other side-hustle to do? Insist people pay in cash. I’m in a situation Annette side-hustles aren’t forthcoming, but my eyes and ears are open, so who knows what tomorrow brings.
No. My wife can and she's done some of it a while ago but the diabetes and other health issues have more or less distracted her ability to help on that end.
I can teach people how to learn to use GNU/Linux, GPG purely out the terminal, Monero, PW management for high level security that even AI can't crack if you play it strong enough.
I can't find anyone interested in it let alone pay for any services. Hell I even bought a bunch of old towers off Craigslist a couple years ago and offer a Free comp set to anyone getting far enough to learn GPG and notas single one has gotten close enough to actually have a lesson let alone learn gorramn thing.
I'm talking dope on the darknet safer than any dealers you'll have to casino the safety of dealing with and the amazing greatness of being able to discard the notion of handling anything like that. Not to mention how cheap it is and the availability of shit you've heard of everything about but the availability of.
Whatever. My offer on the "Free" desktop is not that it has no cost for anyone accepting it but Free as in Freedom. ALA Richard Stallman. This exchange is on the table that I may, in return, learn how to teach people the necessary skills that must be executed en masse to save life on this world. And now, such in a very short time we must do this or else everyone dies. Decade tops I call.
Forget the money and watch it flow. Put your mind on creative endeavors, because you sound like an artist.
Tell that to the kids trying to be sports athletes.
Nope you should be a hardworking cog in the machine, a strait laced, early waking, labor generating machine just as the fucking capital owners require of you. Nothing like snapping you into servitude than the scorn of your peers.
And yet here you are.
