ms-demeanorJust looked up what time I was born and I'm so relieved that I can finally clear some things up! For those who have been asking, I'm an INTJ sun and an ENFP moon.
While I profoundly dislike astrology I can recognize that the vast majority of people who are into astrology are probably just having fun.
MBPI is a different story. If you're someone who is really into your Meyers Briggs type and are, like, assigning celebrities Meyers Briggs types you are exhibiting Behaviors (tm) that tell me you are at all times five seconds away from recommending that I watch a video on body language analysis.
Being really into MBPI types is like saying you think astrology is bullshit so you rely on scrying to get a feel for new people.
"I'm an INTJ so I'm suuuuuper unbiased and rational."
I do not think those words mean what you think they mean.
thebibliosphereI had an employer that made us do those tests. Like they paid a company real money to analyze all of us and tell us what our strengths and weaknesses were.
I purposefully picked all the "wrong" answers to avoid getting the one I always get (INFP or whatever the 'mediator' is), and I wound up with the 'executive' (I don't recall the designator). The one that's good at administration and keeping everyone around them on task no matter what.
And despite having worked with me for five years and knowing I was an absolute chaos gremlin (thanks, undiagnosed ADHD) my supervisor was like, "Oh wow, yeah, you totally are. I see it now. We should reassign you."
Like Karen (her actual name), I just took the equivalent of a Buzzfeed personality test rooted in white supremacy and eugenics. For the love of god, do not restructure the company based on this. Just ask me my star sign and project your biases onto me like a normal person.

bijespersI think one of my major problems with media that deals heavily in themes of good and evil is that my formative years contained Terry Pratchett’s work which just blew my head clean off and put it back on my shoulders a little more firmly and then told me “there are no heroes, no legends, no miracles, just you. It’s you against the darkness and the metaphorical wolves at the door…better bloody do something about that then, hadn’t we”.
iesikaAnd don’t put your faith in revolutions - they always come around again.
And being good isn’t an innate quality - it’s an action that requires doing good for other people even and especially if you don’t like them, it’s hard work and you don’t want to. Bad impulses, bad thoughts don’t matter if you recognize them for what they are and turn them into positive action.
And the duty of the police should be to protect the people, not the power structure.
And we, as people, make our own gods, our own stories, our own creeds, not the other way around, which means we can change those stories and thus change our world, because nothing is more powerful than a story.

A beekeeper in greece put up and images for good luck and later found the beehive avoided the faces.
theindestructiblelittlemyis it just me or is NASA weirdly aggressive in their article about black holes?
can a black hole destroy the earth?
no, you idiot.
black holes aren’t planet gluttons, you bitch.
and the earth isn’t some weak-ass planet that would just fall in to a black hole like a sucker.
and that dumbass sun that we’ve got isn’t big enough to make a black hole like other stars.
you fool.
randomslasherThis reads like an exhausted doctor explaining that no, you fucking moron, vaccines do not cause autism.
