power is still out. i probably won't post much today because my phone is going to die in an episodic show, there are usually a few episodes that are critical that you don't want to skip, but most other episodes don't matter much for understanding future episodes no. i might one day, but i have a lot of other shows higher on my priorities maybe i'll percieve it as just "good" then, rather than "great" the lower class cannot exist without an upper class. if everyone is poor, then there is relatively little class stratification and nobody could be considered part of the lower class in nomadic hunter-gatherer societies, almost everyone participates in the gathering of food, so specialization is very limited. because people are constantly moving around to areas with more food, it is very difficult to organize people on a large scale or to control important resources. because you can only own as much as you can carry with you, wealth accumulation is very limited. because of all of these things, in these societies there is generally not a lower or upper class

I found out what WoR actually is!/j (I haven't watched the video, just showing using it as an example for my joke.) Thanks! 😊 (I know it's more at Byakko but still warranted. (I debated too long about saying anything.))

good morning shaula

Good morning, everyone! 😊 Welcome to the site! 😊 We know that well. Yeah! 😊 That's the spirit! Cool! 😁 Lol!

that sketchy draft was done in a day the rest of the week was basically trying to convert it into finished lines and color, which took majority of the time and felt like being on an assembly line lol thanks. drawing takes a lot of time and effort so it's something you have to want really bad or just have tons of fun doing to do it to the point you can make nice things

Mad respect to those who can draw, it's probably due to my laziness but best I can do is stick figure, or extremely cursed perspectives

Hey Im Sea7, Im new here and to this tulpa I was just wondering if any1 would tell me or suggest me a tutorial on how to make tulpa friend. and if any1 can share some experiences of tulpa, pls share cuz ts is really intresting :) THANKS

If you think it's hard to draw fast already, I can't even imagine Gartic's animation mode with any timer whatsoever We all would literally need to spend time practicing animating whatever our styles are lol

xDDD yeah i can see that lol

This could be a gartic prompt The tulpa escapd the wonderland, oh no

i can do far better!! i must make many things to share! thank youuu, glad you think so krita_8GdBDUNXxM.mp4 that was the draft of it if anyone cares i usually like how my sketches look more than a finished drawing i was inspired to make this because of bread's senator gif made me realize i could make something with transparency x3

It's much easier to think of large numbers in regards to money as its power over things instead Also terrifying

.

A funny thing my science teacher taught me in high school that always stuck with me: the brain is very quick at losing the scale of numbers. You can probably picture 1 apple in your head. 5 apples? Sure, can still be done. 10 apples? Now it starts to get difficult. Now picture 100, with any accuracy. Now 1000. Even just "one million" which seems like a lot but "not that much" is order of magnitude above anything your mind can feasibly comprehend.

In some civilized countries there isn't such a stark difference between lower and upper-middle class (obviously mega-millionaires exist everywhere and there's always a stark difference there, but as long as we can avoid trillionaires....)

The lower class has always existed

I think I've come to realize that the self is a unit, and what matters inside doesn't really matter. It's a personal journey. I feel bad, because if it was a normal person, I'm sure they'd get tired of me reaching out for help every time I'm in a really bad spot. Which doesn't happen often these days. If this is a really, really, really long winded way of deluding yourself into truly believing in yourself, it works. I think this stuff saved me, at a baseline. I have the courage to face the future, no matter what comes. Even if I'm alone when the end comes, there's still some flicker of something else there. Maybe it'll outlive me. Maybe it'll die with me. But... If this isn't just a delusion, I'm glad I have somebody at my side. I think without that guiding, warm presence formed from a very different life spent in youth here, perhaps everything that followed would've destroyed me. But it didn't. I'm truly glad I did this.

Everything we have is built on the backs of everything our predecessors built on the backs of their predecessors for eons

First come, first serve

Day 3865-Nowish: I ended up in a psych ward over combat related PTSD. Guess life leads you in strange places. Prescribed psychotherapy. I was formally diagnosed with major depressive disorder (situational), PTSD, and ADHD, but nothing in terms of DID. Found that one quite strange. Had a while to think. It's been a long journey through life after leaving one name, but I found that unconsciously, I always found myself returning to where I first tried to create a Tulpa. Forgot the terms, but it was... whatever the comforting place where you could imagine was. If I really concentrate, I can hear another version of myself. I think it still exists, but has integrated back into myself with moments where I realize I'm zoning out and speaking with it. Like I'm reviewing my own life with somebody along with the ride. I still think they're a seperate entity. Some sort of switch in the neural pathways? I'm due for an actual MRI, which I'll share the results of if fruitful. Anyway. Thanks, everyone. I'll see if I can remember anything else.

So you even the playing field Good morning

Greetings. I used to post here a lot, a lot time ago. Well, I figured I'd drop off one last series of progress reports. Maybe it'll provide some perspective. Day ~4000: Life goes on, and ultimately, we have to grow as people and get on with our lives. I went through some really bad, and really good times, too. I stopped actively interacting with my Tulpa, but it never quite went away. Always present, watching. Maybe it's my mind playing tricks on me. Maybe there's something. Either way, whenever I've been at my worst moments, I still see flickers of the time I used to escape into myself. Unlike before, where the other self was encouraging escape... I hear a calm, cheerful voice. Telling me to push forward. That this is our journey, no matter who's in the hot seat. I think this is some Jungian lifehack speedrun of the shadow integration method, but... I think having this experience in my life gave me the strength to push forward and keep going on.

Good morning
