Last movie seen
Time

I saw 2 movies, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children and Rogue One.

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children … 9/10

Rogue One … 8/10

Tim Burton did a great job showing his quirkiness still matters. Gareth Edwards had a great story to tell. It was the CGI replacements that drew me out of the moment. I also would have like to have seen Jyn be darker in the beginning and come to appreciate her path as a rebel like Han Solo did.

All in all, I had fun, and that’s all that counts.

Holy moly.
You know things have gotten REALLY bad when Darth Id does a long weekend’s-worth of backreading, and realizes a forum is so toxic as to be a bad influence on him!
My goodness, OT-ers!

Id, this could also be a good time to learn more about other fellow members. Knowing people better can help when understanding their posts and making it easier to respond without the need for any animosity.

Just a thought anyways.

I was going to write something here. In fact, I did, I typed a lot. I deleted it all because it was pretentious, whiny, asinine, and pathetic (just like me).

Self-reflection leads to me quite a self-loathing rabbit hole.

Omg same here.

It’s the self reflection part that matters, not so much the posting of it, but I understand not discussing these things in public. I’ve only recently gotten to the point that I’m able to publicly admit even these problems with my life.

This is a great way to look at it. Not everyone will be able to just do it. It takes time but it does build courage. I’ve written a fair amount of poetry but I have shared almost none of it with anyone for a very long time. Maybe one day I’ll post one here. It’s knowing that I can if I’d like to that starts it off.

This isn’t the most uplifting forum on the internet, but it’s better than some I’ve participated in. I explore the internet to be challenged in my beliefs and be exposed to other attitudes, and certainly this forum can be challenging.

I’ve made some mistakes and bad decisions in my life, but who hasn’t? I know that other people are dealing with their own problems and sometimes that spills out in forum posts, but that’s just human nature. I try not to meet anger with anger, since I believe that you receive what you give. I try to see the best in another person, since I would hope that they do the same, and if they don’t, then I try to move on. Sometimes these tendencies get me in trouble. Sometimes I do get angry with opinions online, so much so that I have to get up and walk away from the computer for a time. It’s not a particularly healthy response, but I’m working on it.

I’ve been thinking a lot about human nature this past year, especially considering our new political reality. I think that a whole lot of people have learned the wrong lesson from this political upheaval, which is that people are ultimately tribalistic, irrational, and can be fooled by anything. While this is a seductive and depressing interpretation, I don’t think it’s true. I believe that people are ultimately unified, imaginative, and reasonable, but our institutions are so fundamentally flawed that we are incentivized to behave far below our potential. Perhaps that’s my idealism showing again.

I have a dream for a better world. In comparison, my life is in such disarray that I feel like I need to start over in order to begin building this world, beginning with myself. I’ve been struggling with feelings of apathy, seeing the far horizon of the road I must walk, but there are moments of fierce determination as well. I fear that some of my choices have permanently damaged me physically, but in some strange way that also hardens my resolve. Similarly to the political trouble on the horizon, the path can become clearer when there is an obvious obstacle to overcome, something to focus my energy. I’ve had some serious anxiety issues over the past year, as well as one full blown panic attack, but since November these feelings have been fading with my newfound resolve, replaced with a refreshing calm.

I’m working on a book of philosophy now. It’s unabashedly autobiographical, about me and for me alone. Nobody else will read it, but I’m starting from the beginning, from first principles. Perhaps from that I will be able to write something good, something persuasive, something that I believe could change the world. The philosophy isn’t new, yet the way I approach the subject hasn’t been done before, at least as far as I know. Perhaps I will persuade no one, for who would listen to someone who has not even ordered their life? Yet there’s a part of me that believes that it could revolutionize both my life and the world of philosophical thought, and that is why I write.

Is that enough self reflection?

That’s cool, thanks for taking the time, it means a great deal.

I’ll start.

I just want to say, I hate some of you, with every breath I take. Now, I don’t actually hate you, but that is how I end up feeling about some of you. This has to be the worst section of any forum I’ve ever belonged to. Not because it’s off topic but because of how it’s been allowed to disintegrate in to such a shit hole of double standards based on the presence of only a handful of members that seem to have been allowed to run it.

I am a good person. I know most of the rest of you are too. I know I am very vocal, it is part of who I am, but it does not make me deserving of all the bullshit I do take from some. I have a daughter I love very much, one that respects and loves me in return. I don’t have much but what I do have is mine, I own it. It’s not rented or borrowed or donated to me. I also happily share what I own if and when it is needed. It’s the right thing to do. I have no reason to change this belief either. It’s an honorable way to be and nothing to be ashamed of.

My sensitivities are always in full view, it’s just how I am, and I have no problem defending them when I feel (because I have nothing else to go on) they’ve been vigorously disrespected. It does not make me friends all the time and I do not expect it to. I realize that not all of my fellow members are use to it or like it but it shouldn’t encourage them to treat me differently. I also fuck up. I make mistakes and sometimes they are huge. I welcome the opportunity to fix such issues when they come up. We all should have that opportunity. We all have problems but those problems don’t make us problems if we are openly seeking to fix them and help others do the same.

I am friends outside of here with some of our members. Some of them feel as I do about things here but they are not as vocal as I am. Others are happier not getting involved and that is okay. I also don’t always “get” internet-ese when it comes to someone being funny, sarcastic, nice, and what not. I am partly to blame due to never belonging to someplace like this until I came here. I am glad there are new rules for off topic but I do see some loophole spots that were probably purposeful based on how some like this section run and seen as compared to others that participate here.

In the end, I have become somewhat tainted by the way things work in off topic, and I do hate that part immensely. I am partly to blame for letting it get to me because my particular sensitivities can be a challenge. My life outside here has seen a lot of challenges, as most, as well. Being a veteran needing to make use of benefits I’ve been denied for years makes life a challenge as well. I really want to be happy inside and out. I know we can’t have it all. Please, try to understand me before you jump on a bandwagon just because it’s fun. It is not fun for me. Respect and understanding go both ways and we all should be willing to give that to each other because we all deserve it, not because we are entitled to it based solely on who we are here. I am human. I am a real person behind this nickname. We ALL are.

Thanks for listening.

JEDIT: To whomever disabled darthrush’s ability to edit, please return it, he has nothing to do with this and I have reinstated my post for all to see. Edit my ability to edit this post if you must.

Thank you.

Rules:

There is no need or requirement to respond to anyone. If you would like to respond please keep it on topic and within the parameters. It would be nice to have a thread just for personal reflection of members, new and old, based on their daily lives here and outside of here. With members from all over the world here, I think it could be very therapeutic to learn how others see themselves in the big picture. Understanding each other better can only help us all communicate better.

NO inside, personal, or sarcastic jokes.

FTR, FUN is okay as long as it is NOT at the puproseful expense of anyone inside or outside the thread.

No ridiculing anyone.

NO swearing, trolling, religious and non-religious finger pointing.

NO pictures or memes of any kind.

NO trolling anyone that posts in here.

NO offering of opinions towards others feelings and/or unsolicited medical advise/diagnosis.

If you have nothing nice to say, find another thread designed for having nothing nice to say, because this thread will not be for you.

Dear Jay,

The last three posts were lighthearted jokes. Please don’t ban anyone when you come back from your vacation.

Hey, how about we all stop being dicks to each other next year eh?

I applaud your intentions with the post and I will do my part even if it takes never responding to any post directed towards me again on this website. I am sad to see that some never cease in finding a way to skirt such positive sentiments as yours instead of not saying anything at all. The fact that it never stops tells me that your wish will be fought at every turn because that kind of positive environment here is neither appreciated or wanted by some without boundaries.

I’ll refrain from anymore levity.

This was not directed at you FF. I totally understood your levity and appreciated it greatly.

Lighten up, dude. Tyrphanax got the joke and responded in kind. No need to stir the pot.

I am unsure who reported it as such or how you figured I was trying to “stir the pot” but that was not what I was doing. I was being polite but honest. I was not aware such sentiment is not allowed.

Nobody reported it. I consider it “stirring the pot”. You expressed concern and disdain over what was obviously a sarcastic joke between two friends that didn’t seem to offend anyone besides you. Your constant lecturing of both old and new members for their behavior (baiting) followed by your subsequent personal offense to resulting negative reactions toward you (playing the victim) borders on troll-like behavior. I don’t think you’re doing it on purpose, but at some point, I have to ask myself if it matters when the end result is the same.

I’m sad to see you feel it would be positive to single out someone publicly and that it would be in the best interest of the site while trying to close divides among members. You’ve now made it clear that Frink’s behavior, even if worded politely, is far more acceptable and welcome, than a member being honest and polite. I’m glad that you found the sarcasm obvious because I did not.

You make the rules, some people don’t follow them, and that’s okay. Per your direct contact with me, I cannot call Frink a troll anymore, yet he can politely disguise his jab about being a troll (which could only be directed my way) and bring the hammer down on me in public.

If some people can have it both ways and others cannot you should state as much when you make the rules. It is your site anyways. This way we all know that certain members are allowed extra latitude while others must not wander outside the parameters laid out. Though I’m not surprised by this blind-side I am disappointed you felt I had to be done like this.

Frink, I hope you’re happy now. You can now show you’re better than me and be proud, exactly the way you like it, public humiliation in defense of you.

This sucks.

😦

Oh. My. God.

Due to the new rules I’ll only leave it implied what I meant by this.

Look, I’m not trying to be a jerk. How can I know Jay and Frink or someone else have a private joke about something I’ve been scolded about? Did you know? Were you fully aware of that? I was not.

What private joke are you talking about? This is only about public posts between members in this thread.

Just another example of obtuse “misreading” of posts followed by “I’m sorry you guys can’t understand why I can’t understand.” It’s old and it’s played out.

You expressed concern and disdain over what was obviously a sarcastic joke between two friends that didn’t seem to offend anyone besides you.

The above was part of your post was it not? I should have said “sarcastic” joke. That still makes it okay? It was certainly not an on topic response as mentioned by you when you scolded us privately.

General Guideline #3:

The OP is considered the thread owner and sets the topic and tone for a thread. The mods will defer to the OP’s preference in determining whether posts veer too far off topic.

I await FanFiltration’s complaint. Until then, I don’t see anything in gross violation of the rules.

Again, the rules are meant to improve the discussion here, not dictate it beyond all reason.

Ya know, I’m now feeling crappy that I defended a friend, thanks everybody. Nice job.

To FF, I am sorry.
