Villains are commonly portrayed as geniuses and mad scientists who use advanced science to take over the world. In reality, the most evil comes out of ignorance and the rejection of science.
The amount of space a golf course takes up vs the amount of people that use them seems like a ridiculous waste of space.
Actors get paid more to pretend to go to space than actual astronauts do to go to space
The only thing that scares me more than space aliens is the idea that there aren’t any space aliens. We can’t be the best that creation has to offer. I pray we’re not all there is. If so, we’re in big trouble.
Science has proven that:
- Humans have auras
- Humans have organs that sense energy
- We inherit memories from our anscestors
- Meditation repairs telomeres in DNA, which slows the process of aging.
- Compassion extends life
- Love is more than just an emotion
- Billions of other universes exist
- Meditation speeds healing
What they have in common: Logic.
Extroverted Thinking (Te): I want proof. I strive for self-evident achievement - awards, public recognition, money. I need to show you I’m right in a way everyone can understand. There’s no time for theory; we need a plan of action. What good is it if it doesn’t solve the problem? If hard science can disprove my claim, then I’m wrong. I think logic is more or less universal, therefore right and wrong are very clear.
Introverted Thinking (Ti): I want knowledge. I strive for personal understanding - satisfaction, collecting odd tidbits, feeling like an expert. I only need to know that I’m right, even if I don’t show it. There’s no need for practicality; we need to make sure this is conceptually sound. What good is it if it doesn’t have internal consistency? If you can show me logically that I’m wrong, then I’m wrong. I don’t need proof. I think logic is highly personal, therefore right and wrong are often a matter of opinion.
What they have in common: Morality.
Extroverted Feeling (Fe): I want harmony. I strive for public approval - appreciation, respect, admiration. I need the atmosphere to be pleasant and appropriate for everyone. I’m willing to hide my true opinions if they would upset others; what they think of me is more important than what I want to say. Everyone is more or less the same; it’s easy for me to put myself in someone else’s shoes.
Introverted Feeling (Fi): I want authenticity. I strive for self-approval - knowing I did the right thing, that I was honorable, just, and fair. I need the atmosphere to be pleasant and comfortable for me. I’m willing to displease people if I need to express what I truly believe; what I want to say is more important than what they think of me. Everyone is unique and incomparable; it’s necessary for me to understand where someone is coming from before I can empathize.
What they have in common: Fact.
Extroverted Sensing (Se): I want stimulation. I strive for things that are pleasing to my senses - food, drink, sports, luxury. I need to be surrounded by a physically appealing atmosphere. I am constantly aware of what is going on around me, whether it is changes in a person’s expression or the passing scenery. I notice all the details. It matters less to me whether something is familiar than whether it is aesthetically pleasing.
Introverted Sensing (Si): I want familiarity. I strive for things that remind me of my past - souvenirs, stories, traditions, our old home. I need to be surrounded by a physically comfortable atmosphere. I am constantly aware of the difference between my current environment and the way it used to be, whether it is the new corner store or my daily routine. I compare all the details to my internal ‘database.’ It matters less to me whether something is aesthetically pleasing than whether it is familiar.
What they have in common: Abstraction.
Extroverted Intuition (Ne): I want novelty. I strive for possibility - ideas, potential, things that sound good in my head. I need to have lots of information to explore. I have a ‘mental playground’ of facts extrapolated from things I have experienced or read. I am constantly aware of what things could be. My thoughts often feel like they lack structure because they branch out in ways that are hard to explain. There are essentially many ways to look at an issue, and many possible solutions.
Introverted Intuition (Ni): I want vision. I strive for insight - the universal truth, the goal, the central meaning. I need to have information relevant to my interests to explore. I have an organized mental space wherein I’m highly aware of what I should be doing to reach the next step. My thoughts often feel like they are pointing in one direction, even if I can’t explain this direction. There are essentially a few ways to look at an issue, which can be narrowed down to one solution.
Most stars die a peaceful death, gently shedding their outer gases into interstellar space. But one in a thousand – the star whose mass is greater than about seven or eight times that of the Sun – dies in a violent, dazzling explosion called a supernova.
Space isn’t actually that scary when you’ve eaten a part of it
2018 advice for the signs
Aries: learn to listen; don’t just wait for your turn to talk.
Taurus: leave space for others to speak their truth. You know a lot, but not everything
Gemini: passive aggressivity is okay for for a little while but eventually you’re gonna have to deal with your problems head on.
Cancer: it’s okay to cry. Don’t bottle your emotions.
Leo: take a deep breath and count to three before you speak when you’re heated. I know don’t mean to be hurtful, passion gets the best of everyone, but not every action needs a reaction.
Virgo: running from your emotions doesn’t solve much. Try to let someone in to help you face them.
Libra: find balance within yourself before becoming the mediator for others.
Scorpio: not everyone is out to get you. Take a chance and give people the grace of surprising you for the better.
Saggitarius: Being emotionally vulnerable with someone doesn’t mean they’re trying to tie you down. Don’t be afraid of intimacy.
Capricorn: sometimes the simplest way is the best way. Try not to get convoluted with all the possiblities.
Aquarius: intelligence is important, but compassion is just as important. Be gentle with those you love and with yourself.
Pisces: Say “no”. Saying “no” does not need to be followed with a reason. You need a break. Pouring from an empty pitcher serves no one.
cancers know other people’s weak points. they can psychically torture someone who has invaded the comfort of their inner space. although cancer people are good judges of character the darker types can wade themselves into their life through the cancer’s profound empathy. this leaves her exposed and vulnerable. the acute cancerian sensitivity can create a sort of vacuum when the individual intends to hurt someone else. she ends up even more hurt, she cuts herself with her own knife
