This World is Ours!

I present the Crime Syndicate from Earth-3. From left to right: Power Ring, Deathstorm, Superwoman, Sea King, Ultraman, Grid, Owlman, Atomica, and Johnny Quick. Behind them is Mazahs.

A few of these figures are painted in some way or another. I tried to avoid it, but I couldn't find any better way to do them.

Adding a little more info to my Jon Allen --is a creeper who threatened me and was encouraged by pre-reboot Anime Conji staff to continue harassing me until I blocked his number and quit staffing for the convention-- tag.

In light of some recent developments in the convention community, some folk are putting together a moderated spreadsheet of known harassers and creeps in the anime convention circuit. https://twitter.com/kirindensetsu/status/1085438071938654209

Submit yours.

I’m submitting Jon for his 2011 behavior, I don’t know if it’ll be considered bad enough. I still cringe in fear and duck away when I see him from a distance at conventions.

MBTI & Ideas Mentalizing

“how your mind is working”

“Sometimes you need to mentalize to interpret your own behavior: ‘How could I have been so gullible as to loan him money when I knew full well that he’s totally undependable?’ (...)

You cannot take for granted your ability to mentalize with respect to yourself: even though you live in your own mind, you don’t necessarily always know how your mind is working. All of us are capable of self-deception.”

“transform hindsight into foresight”

“Also, you can reflect on past mental states: ‘Now that I’ve calmed down, I can see that she intended her criticism to help me, not to belittle me.’ 

In addition, you can mentalize by anticipating future mental states: ‘If I don’t let her know that I’ll be late, she’ll worry and then I’ll feel guilty.’

Most important, you can transform hindsight into foresight: mentalizing about problems in the past can enhance your ability to mentalize in the future.”

“the ‘baggage’ from the past”

“You can take this line of thinking all the way back to your childhood, for example, connecting your current feelings with repeated disappointments in the past, when a parent routinely failed to attend school plays or sports events.

Your feelings about the present invariably are colored by your past experiences, and mentalizing involves being aware of this coloring—the ‘baggage’ from the past—so that you can see the present for what it is.”

“‘story-making’ and ‘story-breaking’ process”

“Ideally, mentalizing, like story telling more generally, is creative: mentalizing, you come up with fresh perspectives, seeing yourself and others from more than one point of view. (...)

Jeremy Holmes insightfully construed psychotherapy as a ‘story-making’ and ‘story-breaking’ process.

Mentalizing, you move out of old ruts in the stories you create about yourself and others.”

“many mental perspectives on the same outer reality”

“This brings us to the essence of mentalizing: recognizing that there are many mental perspectives on the same outer reality. That’s mental reality. (...) 

To engage in constructive problem solving, each person needs to keep their own mind as well as the other’s mind in mind. (...)

You’re likely to find conversations annoying when others fail to mentalize, mentioning names of people you don’t know without taking into consideration that you have no idea who they’re talking about.”
