Instructions

Gentle notice: this writing has a calming, drifting rhythm. Follow only if you feel safe doing so.

✦ ᛉ ᚨ ᚷ ᛟ ✦

Rule one: Don’t think of this as instructions.

Rule two: If you’re trying to follow them, you already are.

Rule three: You’re allowed to stop at any time. Most people don’t.

Not because they can’t— but because stopping requires effort.

And effort is exactly what they came here to escape.

Surviving in this world

I pride myself on being a person of morals, on being politically correct, on following the morally correct rules, but.......I am afraid I won't amount to anything or survive in this world if I keep being so.

Why is it so fucking hard for people to follow such simple rules on a community like MMD?

It's like I'm talking to fucking retarded people when you have to *repeat* yourself for that special cookie. Now I would understand if it was a new member, who didn't know what the rules are or even know how to use the darn program or anything of that. BUT if you know the fucking rules, and know what you are doing and *still* break the rules, while having help from others who do the same shit as you. You are just as bad as people who steal art from artist and edit it to an extent that they DO NOT WANT YOU TO DO. Like why is it hard for people to understand rules?? If you cannot comprehend such rules inside of that dang head of yours than do NOT use the models that you did NOT make for shit. Simple as that.

Just why?? Than they bitch and complain when people break they're rules, but weren't y'all the ones breaking the rules as well?? Like what in the actual heck?? Ugh..this is what frustrates me inside the MMD community, people who break rules, act like they're damn special, people with big ass egos thinking they're God's because of small tiny edits or big ones, and lastly people who believe they are better than others. I..I've seen members like these. And this is the reason why the MMD community on the western side is trashed on by others who legit follow the rules, that's another reason why people LEAVE MMD because of y'all stupidity, and it's another reason why people don't give out great models anymore. Because they cannot trust people because of y'all!! You have no one else to blame but y'all selves for this entire fucking mess that was created on the MMD community!

Than ya'll wonder why they're so much drama? I don't know maybe it's the fact that people are so stupid, and it's a huge chaos of a community that CANNOT hold they're selves for shit.

This is why I am not posting MMD content at all it's one of the main reasons, because of how DUMB people are! It iratates me to a point that I wanna quit! But I won't because I end up finding smart people on the community.

If I'd observed all the rules I'd never have got anywhere.

Nietzsche's Question. Are Virtues Really Valuable?

Nietzsche is asking something simple and devastating, when we call qualities like honesty, integrity, or duty good are we actually saying anything true? Or are we just using flattering words? For him these qualities aren't valuable in themselves. That they're ordinary, even burdensome behaviors. Suppressing yourself, following rules, telling uncomfortable truths get dressed up in noble-sounding language by people who needed others to practice them.

Three possibilities he's probing.

Maybe the value is intrinsic and honesty is good regardless of what it produces. But then prove it. You can't point to it. You can't derive it from facts. You're just asserting it and calling the assertion a moral intuition.

Maybe the value is instrumental and honesty is good because it leads to trust, cooperation, functioning society. This seems more solid. But then the value isn't in honesty, it's in the consequences. Change the consequences, and honesty stops being good.

Maybe even that is a story and this is the sharpest part. Here we have the nietzschean parenthetical "appear to lead, expected to lead." Do we actually verify that honesty produces good outcomes? Or do we just assume it, because the word "honesty" already comes loaded with centuries of approval baked in?

His core suspicion is that we inherited these values, absorbed the language around them, and mistook the warm feeling the words produce for moral truth. We're honoring the fossil of a former social utility and calling it conscience. So called values are mostly our childhood training. It is conditoning by parents, school, chorches and othere istitiution. So Nietzsche lets us question in what level the so called values are mine valuse, which mean in how they halp me survibe and thrive?

What Board Games Can Teach Kids About Sportsmanship, Confidence, and Teamwork

One of our favorite activities as a family was game night.  We would choose teams and compete; of course, someone would always cheat or lose, and you would have thought it was the end of the world.  Then, we would have to go back to discuss the rules. I believe that board games are a fun and engaging way for kids to learn essential life skills while spending quality time with friends and family.…
