Hahaha nope.

How would you describe the mission stage?

Why is your model the way that it is? What are the premises for structuring it this way and not another? How did you go about making it?

I had a few as a teenager

I don't "hate" them. I'm critical of them, just like I'm critical of these guys. I watched his documentary god damn it ? I think Hancock's claims are very grandiose. It blows somebody like MrGirl out of the water. I'm still very interested in what he his investigating though. It's mainly the methods (and probably motives) that I have problems with.

You picked the least likely people where that would be the main culprit. Destiny and MrGirl understand each other pretty well. It's mainly a difference in values, motives, personalities, life stories, happenstance (I'm doing a Danioover now ); just bias. It's not impossible to have two very bright individuals trapped in a tense situation where they feel like drawing swords. That's just how survival goes.

W-what do you mean?

Did you get the joke though?

@Danioover9000 Just brilliant. And of course he has half my name

It's true that streaming is harmful, but two harms doesn't make one good That's why I hate to use that analogy Let's see what MrGirl has on that ;D Even if he wasn't a streamer, I bet you he would find a similar outlet for his sensation seeking cravings. It all goes back to that. He would still be poly, he would still be dating crazy people, and he would still not care very much about other people's feelings. As far as I'm aware, Melina did not complain about the manifestos or the debates, only the people in their personal lives. I don't think crazy people are limited to the political debate space.

Don't stare into the sun.

Dr.K was not being clear in that interview. ASPD is only 40-50% heritable. It's very possible to fit a diagnosis without a genetic predisposition. The truth is that childhood experiences dictates a lot of your personality (look up the ACE study). If you've seen the guy who found out he has the brain of a psychopath but he is today a well-adjusted person, that was of course due to his healthy upbringing. So unless Destiny had a divine upbringing (which according to him is not true), he will certainly benefit from therapy. Yes. You don't let predators out and about. I hate to use that example again, but you don't let child rapists do their thing just because it makes their life easier. The idea that it will destroy his career is also highly exaggerated. He can still be a streamer who talks to people, just not a psychopathic one. He has managed to re-brand himself a few times already. I also believe that much (but not all) of the drama he experiences is self-caused, i.e. if he stops being a psychopath, less people will shit on him.

Sounds pretty Orange, but you usually need more context to assess Yellow.

@The Mystical Man Cucked by dreams ?

They didn't watch enough MrGirl.

It's not the whole story, no. It was really funny though how we arrived at it. So we both study psychology (his name is Emil, pretty Ne guy), and one time, we had some work due the next day which involved interviewing three people about a subject. I asked one of our other roommates and ended up talking at great length, stressing that we had to follow ethical guidelines of no pressure, while Emil just casually asked our other roommate who walked in the door and she agreed without question. So I suggested the next day while walking to class that his strategy, which involved more risk taking, was also extremely efficient (he didn't spend more than a second on negotiations while I spent minutes), and that this is how society progresses, because like you said, the risk takers who succeed reap massive rewards which they can share with the community, while the failures just get eliminated and forgotten. Then later that day, we were talking about random shit, like "what is that weird structure on top of that building over there?", and we laid out our theories and everything, and then we somehow landed on how talking about useless shit is another example of how society progresses, because just like risk taking, people who make the good connections reap massive rewards, while those who don't just waste their time. And hence we arrived at our conclusion. That was one fun day

Haha me and my roommate were talking about this one time. We concluded that society progresses through risk taking and out-there ideas.

When it comes from a place of psychological health and the ability to be empathetic and show real care for other people as opposed to a pathological level of emotional coldness and sensation seeking. That doesn't mean Destiny should be jailed or something (as far as we know lol). It's more an ethical issue. As a society, we dislike certain psychopathic traits. Does that mean we're saying psychopaths shouldn't be allowed to exist? Well, kinda. At least do what you can to fix it (go to therapy).

Thank you, master.

This thread has really bad vibes.

I don't get how you can do it.

You should probably avoid associating with psychopaths, yes ? And if they're hurting those around them, the onus is on them to change.

I've thought about recording myself every time I sit down to play guitar (I basically spend 90% of the time just improvising over some basic chord progressions that I have on loop) on my shitty laptop webcam like I did on that one guitar cover, and then maybe after a week, I'll find a selection of moments where I enter that state and post it The main hurdle is what Gavin Harrison (drummer) once put so eloquently of "mentally undressing", which is harder when you know you're being watched. So my plan is that if I get used to recording every time I sit down, that problem will be solved.
