to feel okay

[ganondorf]

i think this captures the defining pathology of the collective social media psyche right now. we are in the thrall of people who are wantonly cruel but who also demand to be coddled at all times in every way

Dwemeris morphological analysis

So I've decided to try to do a morphologically analysis and gloss of the Dwemeris text on Calcelmo's Stone. I've only done the first line but look at all my notes

posting this in the off chance someone is interested

[skyrim-forever]

Literally a year later but I decided to continue this! Hoping to do the whole text eventually, and while looking I found this great tidbit on uesp

This would make a lot of sense, I think the translation is a bit off but without anymore info (Bethseda hire a linguist, hire me!) this is the bets we've got. With that caveat out of the way, here's line 2:

I do think the post that's like "when they torture you to insanity and then torture you for being insane 😂🤣" is one of the most succinct and foundational analyses of interpersonal violence and conflict that had ever been written

a lot of your suffering comes from treating your nature like a problem to manage instead of a design to understand

I feel like a lot of people get "All Art is Political" confused with "All Art is made with Political Intentions" which is not the same.

step one: replace entire personality with open, festering wound

step two: contort absolutely all stimuli in my environment to relate to the my wound in some manner, ideally one which justifies random acts of unbridled aggression and vengeance

step three: marry a girl with generational wealth

Once you start noticing how the incapacity to handle discomfort affects how people live their lives it's actually pretty shocking how it ruins pretty much every conceivable aspect of existence. Interpersonal relationships, romantic and platonic. Career and education opportunities. Your politics Your willingness to go anywhere. The kind of food you eat. The kind of art you expose yourself to and your ability to read it. It's never just one thing, it touches everything, and once you notice it it's like suddenly being able to see germs or something. Just this horrific catastrophe people look at you askance for screaming about. As I grow older and see what became of my friends and peers who could not learn to handle discomfort, the more I'm like. This is a genuine societal issue

Increasing my discomfort tolerance has also been one of the greatest assets to improving my mental health.
