Rolo 🥜 -- this year's birthday hatch!

[sxturnrjpple]

apparently, im an intp

it's crazy how typology works.

yesterday late night i was watching umibe no étranger/stranger by shore with my best friend and she was like “dude, you're so Shun and I'm so Mio” so (since I can't live without pdb) we checked their typologies and Shun's typed intp 6w5. then after that i was like "bro, do you think im really an entp” and she was like “i don't know man, you're the one who knows all that typology stuff here” then we went on my absolutely trustworthy favorite typology websites and started like calculating my "cognitive function points" (which i then made into percentage so it was clearer) and what the freak. I've always doubted how my Ne function represented me because of my autism i tend to have very few interests and hobbies and they're usually in the same category (fiction it is) so y'know I don't really have “many different hobbies and interests”, I don't move much BUT on the other hand I always need to be doing something unless I'll be bored and boredom is a hellhole of a sensation so idk if that counts as "tending to be active", im also an extremely careful individual who absolutely hates new things and im not very impulsive so new experiences (be it planned or not) aren't really my thing, i like my comfort zone. anyways, my Ne score was 6 on 9 so 66% and the straw that broke the camel's back were both my besties saying im not exactly the most sociable person they know?? I GENUINELY THOUGH I WAS MORE EXTROVERTED THAN INTROVERTED BUT I GUESS THEY HAVE A POINT and just because i like people, im generally talkative and i like their presence (and seek it) it doesn't make me an extrovert not even a bit. ANYWAY, i got a 100% Ti function score (i think it was like 7/7) which i honestly expected but i never really thought it to be my priority but my friends made me notice just how much I don't have empathy (that pure feeling kind of empathy and not just the cognitively understand how a person COULD be feeling kind of empathy) and put logic and fact over feelings in any reasonment and that's why most of those moral things people do (like not dating the person their friend likes like that person is their property or something idk it doesn't really make sense to me but they say it's just right like that, anyway this is just an example) don't really make sense to me, how im slow at changing my opinions, how curious i am (about stuff im interested in but yeah, same thing). now letting alone my capacity to correctly applying logic in my head cause my brain apparently can't stand mental images (also graphics, counting (basic math too)) and messes them up and confuses me every time, writing down helps applying it better and by that i can do a full reasonment that makes sense. ALSO (im sorry this is long you probably don't even care) intp's functions stack is Ti-Ne-Si-Fe in which i can find myself more easily than a Fe-Si (tert, inf) stack, since Fe is the empathy lord function which I don't really use.

anyway, typology makes you insane i mistyped myself like 4 times in my studying journey (probably lifetime long)

btw shun is like one of my biggest kins ever,,,

Anon wrote: Hi, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge here, your work is truly a gift in providing reliable reference to study MBTI. I need help with typing my personality. I am a 29 y.o female, I was diagnosed with anxiety and had depressive episodes. My guess is I am an Ni-dom, I relate more with Fi-Te axis so I’m considering INTJ, but also INFJ because I don’t fully believe I am a thinking type.

For Ni dom and Se inferior (for INTJ and INFJ): I seek explanation for patterns that I see like noticing if the traffic is emptier than usual during a public holiday, then thinking maybe it’s because people are celebrating at home, or people celebrated last night until late. Then such observation informs my future planning i.e. “last year, people celebrated at home so the traffic might be empty during that public holiday and we should schedule a day out”.

Ni-Se is shown in how I often live based on “how things should be”, like following a tested routine that would ideally save time and money but gives me stress and discomfort, and I didn’t allow myself to spend money required to side-step inconveniences that suddenly happen outside of that routine because it doesn’t feel right. I postpone going outside unless all the conditions are met, like leaving at the intended time, have learned the route, and have planned what to do there.

Te-aux and Fi tert (for INTJ): For important project, I want to ensure there is high probability of success by searching for evidence like when applying for scholarship, I searched resumes of past awardees to model a situation i.e. “If I have A, B and C happen, there are higher chances of getting the scholarship. I haven’t found evidence where someone had those three and didn’t get it”, then look what factors I’m lacking and where to get it. In a leadership position, I want everyone to be engaged in the project, but if someone is being irrational, I believe it’s best to go with what gives best outcome because people will come around once they see good result.

I relate to Fi because I use my past experience as a way to relate to others, like often saying “If I were you…” or “I would do that too” which could point toward Fi. Tert Fi also made me criticize myself, like if I have an episode of uncontrolled emotion or if I have made another friend hate me, I would just say “Well, that’s just who you are, a person who have difficulty controlling your anger and bad at socializing".

Past loop behaviour (Ni-Fi but could be Ni-Ti): In high school, I was in science olympics, met people smarter than me, and started to fail more often. I also admired a guy (maybe INTP) because his intelligence comes from genuine interest in knowledge. So I rationalized my failure was because I chased external goals and because I wasn’t genuine enough like the INTP guy, then blamed my parents for giving pressure to achieve things (faulty conclusion), and started hating people who are ambitious or who follow the rules. I was inspired by some of the athletes which made me missed pursuing something competitively, so I decided to be competent in my chosen field starting by having good grades.

Fe-aux and Ti tert (for INFJ): I don’t fully relate with INTJ because I laugh a lot and smile a lot in a large group conversation, especially if I feel the need to impress that group, which I don’t see in the INTJs I knew. When talking to people, I search for topics that would will make it a good conversation (things that will encite strong emotions in them, or talk about their goal, or my goal, it should be a balanced exchange). I often assume what people are thinking, like “This person seems happier when talking to person A than when with me, maybe because I dissociated too much before so our connection was not as strong”. When watching movies, I am often interested in the characters’ motives and how they make decisions, and how the world responds to such characters.

My Fe could be unhealthy because I judge people quickly in a negative direction without having the patience to keep a neutral position to investigate first. My interaction with people ended up making me feel annoyed often because I focused on the bad qualities in people, like people using MBTI superficially to feel superior or people hating for the sake of hating other groups (could be Ni-Ti). I hope I give clear enough details on the function, and thank you again for helping me with this typing

----------------------

The submission instructions state that you must respond to all the points in the guide for every function you are examining. It appears you haven't used the guide properly, so your description is lacking in detail. You have given me the info you believe is relevant rather than giving me specifically what I asked for. This means I can't do a full analysis. There's enough for me to conclude that INTJ is unlikely, but not enough to confidently confirm that INFJ is the correct type.

[krayfishthetypelessblob]

I saw someone else do this so I hope it's okay to ask: what do you think of each MBTI type?

This is fine, I am always open to questions (technical or not), my responses are just occasionally a lot slower than I’d like.  Uhh no one take my responses too personally, is is going to be very subjective?

ISTJ: Unpopular opinion, but have my favorite sense of humor.  I’d prefer this type over my own, dunno why I decided to skew towards high Fe. Highly sarcastic, often 10x less organized and put together than they seem or stereotypes make them out to be.  Seem to vary between being very judgmental and almost emo in their staunch conviction to their values or seem to not give 2 shits about anything....  I know a lot of 9 core ISTJs.  Should be given the cooking stereotype that ISFJ has, lots of very angry bakers in this category.

INTJs: I’ve only met/confirmed them through the internet.  Again, same morbid/dry sense of humor as the above, fantastic to conversate with.  Similarly to ISTJ, not half as calculating as they’re made out to be.  Tend to be very outwardly disagreeable but with the capacity for being sympathetic and reasonable.  Seem to rate themselves as very logical, but more moved by their values and feelings than they expect.  

ESTJs:  Tend to avoid me and I tend to avoid them purely because we both seem to respect that we’d probably never agree on anything and we think very differently.  Very likable function stack in theory.  Inferior Fi is stil a lot edgier than you’d expect it to be and also incredibly stubborn.  This is my brothers type, if paired with cp6 and 7 have no patience for anyone’s opinions but their own nor anyone trying to control them by any means.  Only rule oriented when they agree with the rules.  Tend to have a streak of paranoia.  I value them in work settings because even though they sometimes get really stubborn are often reasonable people.

ENTJ: My only conception of this type is my great grandma, who is both an 8w9 and soc blind to add on to this type, and an close old friend of mine, who was 8w7 so/sp core.  Tert Se is quite a drug I’ll tell you.  I suppose they’re likely more reasonable without the 8?  Force of nature, hella interesting, fairly self righteous though.  Stubborn as an ox.

ISTP: The embodiment of cool.  Every one of the ISTPs I’ve met has been a walking stereotype.  Machines?  Check.  Sk8bords? If not, they vibe like the punk who would ride one.  Generally likable and even keeled, high Se makes up for lackluster Fe in my opinion.   I envy their ability to work in the real world, often highly creative too in their endevours. 

INTP: Tend to be drastic introverts, but very interesting to talk to.  Tend to be fairly self righteous, but realistically they have some leway with that because they typically know what they’re talking about?  Really cute when they are talking about things that they’re interested in because you can just tell that they’re really interested and they loose themselves in that despite their apathy.

ESTP: Generally, I initially really hate this type among first meeting them because I really grate with Se.  After speaking to them for more than like a week though, I typically feel a strong draw to them.  Se is such a weird function and very counter to everything that I’ve worked with, incredibly interesting to speak with about how they experience the world.  Their mind is just as quick as they are at adapting and working on their feet.  My closer friends have been of this type.

ENTP: Another one who is really cute when they talk about their interests, often a massive dork.  Tend to give more of a shit about people than they think they do, though they struggle to accept this aspect of themselves I guess.  Often think they’re the of pinickle of knowledge but struggle to understand the difference between a value judgement and their own logic sometimes.  Engaging conversator, loves sharing their opinions, another quick thinker. Intelligent dumbass is a really good description.

ISFJ: Give or take.  Either the nicest person you’d ever meet or a skilled manipulator.  Often very competent, often just as passive.  

INFJ: I actually know very few of these types, and most of them have a 7 fix or influence.  It’s just really weird because they are thrill seeking but slow af.  Either a 7 page paragraph for every thought or like... They won’t explain anything because they “just know” and the latter annoys me a lot.  Don’t like to admit they’re wrong, but great/interesting to conversate with in general.

ESFJ: Another give or take.  Have a strange capacity to be the most horrifying person you’ll ever meet.  Another case of self-righteous syndrome sometimes.  There are actually some reasonable members of this type though that I find really likeable because of their enthusiasm and their empathy (when they genuinely have it and aren’t just saying they’re an empath).  My mother is this and I get along with her as well, she’s fairly logical though/understands where her emotions end and are open to others feeling differently.  

ENFJ: I actually don’t usually get along with this type unless they have a 2 fix, and more often it’s a 3 fix.  I’m not sure why, I just find them annoying?  I had a friend who was this type and he was really cool and likable (2w3 so/sp core), deep and ethical thinking, bit of a sjw but I could get past that.  3 core ENFJ is the worst combination for type (purely in terms of my ability to tolerate them), I’m sorry if this applies to you.  Nontheless, I enjoy high Fe enthusiasm in general.

ISFP: Chill, genuiine, and artsy, often either very creative or very... Ditsy.  Often incredibly loyal and a big fan of the underdog and more than willing to accommodate them.  Very inclined to be a 9 core.  Rock music fans.  Generally very easy to like, but can also be very self absorbed and touchy.  Their world view is very much based on how they feel about things, but that’s just Fi in general I guess.  Very easy to manipulate.

INFP: The above is basically true for INFP, except INFPs are less chill.  They tend to think they’re chill, but they’re often not (with a few exceptions).  Another deep conversator that I enjoy at 1 am in particular.

ESFP: I’ve made one good friend with this type and I’d think we are almost complete opposites.  I have the same sort of issue with them I have with ESTP, Se just grates me.  Tend to project a lot, but are often really well meaning and creative.  Really enjoy philosophy, also tend to have a cute kind of enthusiasm when they let it show.  Either emo and adventurous or loud and comedic, I find very little in between

ENFP: Another very intelligent dumbass in the sense that they can explain a theory to you flawlessly then accidentally walk off a cliff.  Sometimes think they’re the pinikle of logic, but conflate knowing a lot with being logical.  Can be an interesting conversator, but can also be drastically self absorbed and self righteous, primarily if they’re 3 fixed.   Fairly interesting to interact with, often fairly neat takes on things.  Members of this type who aren’t my father are often very likable.

Trends in Regenerative Medicine

This is just a taste of what is out there.  A quick snippet of a few of the myriad trends that are coalescing toward a regenerative medicine movement that will transform the world.  Hopefully they provide some useful insight into where we are headed and how we are getting there.  I concocted this article recently as a writing sample for a job.  We will see whether or not I get it but no reason not to let everyone else enjoy the efforts as well.

BioMedical Advances – The future of keeping you healthy.

  By – Matthew Lehmitz

  Imagine regrowing an entire limb or organ using nothing but a handful of your own existing cells.  Consider the possibility of increasing muscle mass simply by injection.  

  We live in an age where machines and living things are ever more closely connected and where bioengineering is looking ever more like classical engineering.

  In march 2020 more than 112,000 people in the United States alone were waiting for organ transplants.  This far outstrips organ donations rates which for all of 2019 stood at 19,267. 

  What if we could cut that number to zero and reduce the wait time from years to months to days or even hours?

  This and more is the promise of modern and future bioengineering technology.  Let us explore more of what life might bring us and what we can bring to life.

  The famous quote from the six million dollar man goes “We can rebuild him, we have the technology”.  This has never been more true.  

  Not only can we now treat damage and slow the progression of time and illness but we have the capability to begin to rebuild and even improve the human body.  

  We can produce new organs or regrow limbs.  We can make new skin or alter the very DNA sequences that underlie our basic functioning.  

  In the future we can end aging and make our bodies even more resistant to disease and damage preventing harm in the first place.    

  3d bioprinting:

  One of the most interesting areas at this time is a field called 3D bioprinting.  

  We’ve all heard or read about 3d printing and the amazing things it can produce in plastic.  Whether you want a model of the USS Enterprise or a new steering wheel for your car it can save a lot of potential time and money.

  This technology is expanding rapidly.  By the year 2022 spending on 3D printers alone is expected to exceed 5.3 Billion USD annually.  

  So what if we converted the printer to create things not of plastic but of cells?  

  This is the question that is answered by the 3D bioprinting revolution.  

  Rather than rely on human donors for transplant organs we can simply turn on a machine primed with cells from the person needing a transplant and let it print away.  

  Of course not all organs are flat and so a biocompatible gel or soft material is used to form a scaffold on which to print.  

These prints can be finished in a matter of days or even less with some bone printing systems able to complete their tasks in as little as two hours.  

  Rejection has long been a problem with transplants.  Acute rejection, where the body rejects the new organ and attacks it as a foreign body,  occurs in up to 30 percent of cases for liver and as high as 20 percent for kidney transplants.

  A huge advantage of using organ printing is that it avoids the issue of rejection by using the patients’ own cells.  Since they are already accepted by the patients’ immune system they are very unlikely to be targeted as foreign bodies.

  Costs for medical procedures are quite high in the United States with Medicare spending exceeding 3.4 Billion annually for Kidney Transplants.  

  3D printing will bring these costs down significantly.  Not only will it be cheaper and easier to find and safely transplant the organs but the technology is cheap as well.

  Many quality 3D printers have fallen below the 300 USD price point.  We can expect to see the 170,000 USD price point of professional bioprinters fall quickly as we have seen with its sibling technology.

  Limb Regeneration:

  How hard would it be to live without a finger?  Without a hand?  Even an entire arm?  Life would certainly be very difficult.  Living with the loss of a limb is a challenge that faces more than 2.1 million Americans every day.  Approximately 400 amputations are performed nationwide on an average day.

  Most people currently use some kind of mechanical prosthesis to provide a limited replacement for the lost limb.  This may soon be changing however, as regrowing limbs becomes more feasible.  

  There are many creatures in nature that regrow lost parts.  It turns out that humans are not substantially different.  

  Studies have shown that babies can regenerate fingertips when they are young and prenatal humans can regrow entire limbs in the womb.  

  This fits with our own evolutionary history as we see a variety of reptiles do this as do some amphibians.  

  We can trace specific gene activation in mammals called lin28a.  This specific gene was found by George Daley and his team at Harvard Medical to result in significant tissue regeneration in mice.

  This only occurred however, when the gene was prevented from switching off and only when the mice were young.   

  So humans have this ability to regenerate and it can be found in other mammals.  It is simply one of the many genes that gets switched off as we age.  What can we do to reactivate it or keep it from leaving us in the first place?

  One amazing solution may be the development of a powder which can be rubbed onto damaged limbs which help them regrow.  While the studies on this have been limited some individuals have seen healthier and more complete limb repair than was otherwise expected.

  Stem cells seem like a strong approach.  They already are pluripotent which means that these cells can be induced to grow into any cell that is needed.  With the right inducement stem cells could be made to grow any organ or tissue in the body.  

  Future stem cell applications could enable the regrowth of an entire arm or leg.  

  Ending Aging:

  No health concern is as serious or omnipresent as aging.  It is the disease that every human is born with and which will eventually claim every person if nothing else does first.

  The plague of aging has followed humanity throughout its entire existence but that is beginning to change.  

Imagine a situation where humans live not just much longer lives but also much healthier ones where aging is a controlled condition or overcome entirely.  

  Many current research trends in gerontology, the study of aging, present a tantalizing perspective suggesting this isn’t just possible but that we can make great strides in this area.

  Genetic modification has become ever more achievable.  Since the development of CRISPr Cas-9 protocols the ability to accurately and reliably alter genomes has been greatly improved.  

  Genes are spectacular things that play such a key role in every facet of our lives that any ability to alter them can have amazing effects.

  A few genes have already been identified as having strong connections with aging.  

  One of them called AAV9-TERT is a gene tied to the production of telomerase.  

  Telomerase is a chemical that is responsible for managing the length of telomeres.  ‘Caps’ of a sort on the end of genetic sequences.  

  As we age our telomeres become shorter and can lead to genetic damage and decrease cellular functioning.  Increasing the length and safety of these coverings can help reduce effective biological age.

  This approach has been reported to improve the lifespan of mice by as much as thirty percent.  

  Work in the area of senolytics is very exciting.  Senolytics is the study of ways we can remove senescent cells from the body.  

  Senescent cells are those that are working poorly or not at all.  They take up resources and can be detrimental to nearby cells. 

  Senolytic therapies endeavor to remove these cells while leaving healthy tissue undamaged and free of their negative influence.

  Adding senolytic approaches to gene therapies has seen lifespans of mice increased by as much as 36 percent.

  Conclusion:

  Through constant effort and improvement of our experience and techniques we will continue to live longer and healthier lives.

  We will grow and harvest new and healthy organs, edit our genes to better serve our needs, live long and healthy lives.

  These will all have powerful impacts on society and one of the most significant adjustments that will have to be made across all sectors is how to deal with this.

  The health care sector will see huge shifts and disruption in its market as demand for these new treatments increases while more traditional treatments and approaches fall away.

  There is a massive business opportunity in this as a result and many new startups are moving into the anti-aging sector.  They will be at the forefront of next phase developments and will not only profit from the changing markets but provide great profit to humankind.

  Society will also see innovation racing ahead as we learn to deal with a whole new paradigm for generations, education, experience, sports and all other facets of human striving.  It may be difficult but will ultimately see us become stronger as friends and as people for the effort.

Lair Review for @starsetfr  

(A Part of my Apparel for Reviews System) 

Under a cut because I wrote a lot lol. 

Starset Lair Link

Right off the bat, I absolutely adore the way you’ve set up the tab description! I honestly might use that concept because my main tab is currently all dedicated to who is on what page instead of like the main clan aesthetic. Your lore sounds really cool too! I love the vibe of a vacation town omg that’s so cute.

I really like your bio setups! They’re very simplistic but the information is all easily accessible. The inclusion of the lil emojis in Threadfin’s bio made me smile – they are so adorable. The aesthetic of the first page is so nice and I love the mixtures of blues and browns. I like this little family unit of Threadfin / Tetra and their kids. And wow! Owen looks fantastic, and I love the little “drippy eyes….” Comment in her bio lol.

Betta’s colors are so pleasing to look at. I love the mixture of the bright colors and the way his apparel matches and compliments his accent.  It’s amazing how you’ve managed to give all these first page dragons a ‘watery’ aesthetic while still managing to make them all look like individuals.

Sardonyx’s colors and apparel are all so pleasing to look at, and his accent is such a perfect match that it took me a while to notice it. I love how the spine in the accent is matched with the rusted metal of his apparel. His lore was very interesting and led me to go and check out Galford.

Omg Galford…. I love him. His lore is so interesting and I am smitten with this angsty, bitter old man. The line at the end about him noticing that the town became a tourist destination made me chuckle. I legit just can’t get over exactly how much I love him.

I’m always here for purple dragons, and Tendril is just gorgeous. I especially love the layering of the daredevil cover and the linen head wrap. It’s just such a good look. The brightness of plum alloy against his more dark tone is so eye-catching… We love to see it. The way the black fabric of the white raven armor covers up a good portion of the bright plum also just looks really neat and I love it. Plum Ghost is just barely noticeable and I really adore the way it peeks out from beneath the head coverings.

Sunshine looks so bright and cheerfully and I feel like I love her. The concept of a shell shop is so stinkin’ cute omg, and I adore her cute lil accent and the shells it gives her. The few pieces of apparel on her look great too, and I love that you’ve left most of her naked so that her accent can shine.

Thulian caught my eye immediately with her purple and green color scheme and I really love her lore. She makes me feel sad for her and she sounds so sweet :( . I always love seeing that accent because my custom progen also wears it! Funnily enough, my progen actually used to be a tree before she was transformed into a dragon by a ‘strange mage’ (well, he used to be a mystery, and then he turned up and everyone realized he was a bit of a dork). I feel like the two of them would get along.

Ohohohooh…. Hollow has such a perfect aesthetic I have chills. I love them. I adore the way their brown / earthy tones are being ‘taken over’ by his icy apparel. All in all it just looks fantastic.

Evika’s apparel is so cool and from the small amount of lore she has I already love her. I actually really love how her apparel doesn’t match her colors and instead adds an entirely new element. The Thresher Flatfins are such a neat apparel item that I haven’t used yet but Evika looks stunning in it. I love the purple tones on her apparel and just her entire look…

Yaeshaun’s wings are the best thing I’ve ever seen in my life. For lots of colors I dislike Iri/Shim but Cyan Shimmer is an absolute stunner. I adore the brightness of them contrasted with his monotone prim and tert. The way the roundhorns match the bright cyan colors is just amazing. His outfit really fits his role too, which is something I personally struggle with in my own lair! Overall just a gorgeous lil man.

Bet you’d never imagined that a shadow lair would immediately gravitate towards Penumbra, huh? She’s so gorgeous that I am almost speechless. I love the mixture of apparel that you’ve used and the layering. It creates such an amazing aesthetic and really just solidifies her shadow-y aesthetic. I was shocked to see her bio say her role is a healer but I really love that! What a great contrast between her look and her lore, and I’d love to know more about her :D

From Penumbra directly to Canidae we go! Gosh, I adore when people mix colors from different sections of the color wheel and I especially love the mix of greens and golds that she has. Peacock Capsule is absolutely gorgeous and I love how you can see it peeking out from under her clothes. Spruce Trail really compliments it well and stops her golden aesthetic from becoming overpowering. I love that all of her apparel is gold-based and contrasts against her secondary / tertiary, and the way you’ve added the obsidian roundhorns to compliment the black candles is masterful.

When I saw Ahkalone I immediately remembered Galford’s lore and clicked on him so fast. His colors and apparel? Fantastic. Love it all. Now onto the lore… oh gosh… I love this story and I’m so invested in them lol. When I read about the ring in Galford’s bio I didn’t expect to get to know who it theoretically belonged to but then I did and my appreciated for Canidae just went through the roof. Ahkalone sounds like such a cool character that I’d love to hate in a way lol.

Trenchdust’s entire aesthetic and overall look? Top tier. Also I love the little bit in his bio lol it’s so relatable for when I’m trying to nail down and character’s role or what they do. The way the ghost hands peek out from under the feathered wing and are only really visible where they are reaching out beyond him is also just awesome looking and something I don’t think I’ve seen done before.

No dragon with orchid or mint will go uncomplimented in my presence! Alaurun is an absolute stunner. I love all of her colors and the way her genes work with them. The learned sage apparel matched with the main mint color so well and gives her such an otherworldly aesthetic.

*deep breath* LUCKY is FANTASTIC. I love me some spirals, and I love the rot look she has going on. She sounds like such a diva and I absolutely love it. Her apparel is so well layered and really adds to her look along with her genes. Just overall such a great looking dragon.

Discordium is stunning and that’s all there is to it. I love the way wine tapir looks and it was honestly shocking to me that he wasn’t an xxy dragon! His colors match so well together and I just love his apparel. The pinks all tie together and he looks so good. His lore is really cool too! I’m all about things like that and he seems so interesting!

[ill-be-istj-if-no-one-else-is]

How did you get to be certain of your type despite the often inaccurate information about an ISTJ's function stack? It's getting better, yeah, but it can still be hard to find good sources and intuitive bias just seems to manifest differently. How would one go about overcoming that?

Hi anon,

This is an interesting question - I’ll go over how I overcame that and you can see if it helps more generally.

The main thing is that when I decided to seriously type myself I was in my mid-20s. I had tested as an INTJ on tests taken when I was younger and really hadn’t focused on MBTI at all since then when I became interested a second time and learned what the functions were.

I quickly realized that high Te was correct, tert Fi fit better than inferior Fi, and I was an introvert in the non-MBTI sense anyway, so IxTJ as a typing came pretty quickly. It was then a matter of slowly realizing that Ni did not make sense to me at all, and well, that left Si.

As for getting over intuitive bias: being older and generally having a good sense of self meant that when I saw things that said “NJs are smart and SJs are dumb” instead of saying “oh then I must be an NJ” I was able to say “that makes no sense, and instead of saying “oh I guess I’m not smart” I was able to say “this seems made up.” At that point in life I was pretty secure in my intelligence and capability: back when I didn’t have a great sense of self when I was young, the fact that I was a smart kid was maybe the main thing I did know about myself.

 Other things that helped here: familiarity with the 7 kinds of smart (clearly, an Ni-dom’s spatial or kinetic intelligence or an INTJ’s intrapersonal intelligence are probably...not great) and the fact that because of my educational background and current situation I was surrounded by wildly different personalities, all of whom were very smart people. In other words...that just clearly stood out as bullshit. Personality and brains are separate.

I was also pretty secure in my weaknesses and my strengths. Like, I know I’m not necessarily a visionary or a creative genius - I’m capable of some level of vision and creativity but that’s not my strength. I think I’ve mentioned that my first job had this thing where when they asked for feedback you could say that this person was great with clients or wildly creative in their solutions but sometimes struggled with following through/internal tasks, and that the focus on that kind of recognition was extremely frustrating: when I indirectly managed people, which I hated, the people who made it tolerable weren’t always creative geniuses but people who were respectful, punctual, and didn’t need me to follow up with them a million times to get my work that was dependent on their work done. So I’d developed a certain respect for the Si dependability and reliability traits that often get written off as boring.

In other words I had a good enough sense of people before I got into MBTI to have my own biases and understandings to balance it out. Essentially, the problem with intuitive bias isn’t just a worship of big-picture over details; it also paints pictures of people who don’t exist and things that don’t make sense. You see people type themselves as INTJs but talk about their perfectly developed Se at age 19 - if that’s the case, then an ISTJ should have equally good Ne! And so on. This is also a big part of why I get so frustrated when people can’t understand that a single behavior that contradicts the type doesn’t discount the hundreds of behaviors they have that point to that type, or that people are variable. Essentially, by the time I got into MBTI I had interacted with tons of people - my pre-grad school job was in IT with a client services component, and most of the people who did it were for lack of a better term nerds who learned to make small talk and eye contact. We explicitly served as a bridge between the people-person extrovert project and account managers and the leave-me-alone-in-a-room-with-my-code programmers. And that’s not counting, you know, friends in high school, friends in college, friends at work or in the community, my family, and so on. I had a sense of the unpredictability and diversity of people and looked to MBTI more to categorize and simplify that into a system, rather than to understand people in the first place.

Essentially, if you approach MBTI as a system that works on real people and not a black-and-white programmable binary, intuitive bias just...doesn’t make sense, because all people are flawed.

It also helped that I had a pretty strong logical background because a lot of intuitive bias arguments just fall apart. Like, again, the idea that sensors can’t understand metaphors would indicate that a large number of people (even if you believe intuition and sensing numbers are flipped we’re still looking at a quarter of the population) don’t understand metaphors. In reality the only people I’ve ever met who haven’t understood metaphors have been young children. It’s pretty easy to get the sense from severely intuitively biased people that they definitely think bad sitcoms are real life.

This got long and I’m not sure it’s helpful in the way you want because the only advice therein is “build up a solid understanding of people and logic that doesn’t involve MBTI at all” but that is my advice - that’s why I tell young teens to just wait most of the time. I say MBTI is a starting point and not the end but it’s also not really a starting point since you need to know yourself somewhat without it - it’s really more a totally optional middle point.

progen dragon sharing, inspired by a post by @goannafr that ive had in my drafts since may 12th of this year! wow i am good at being late

varsha- custom progen

so the colors i chose for varsha.... well, i didnt choose them. which is fully. i was in school in the middle of a movie in health class, and id snuck onto my phone and made an fr account because the registration window was about to close and i was going to be busy the rest of the time it was open, or maybe i was just too impatient.

i didnt realize you could even change the colors of the dragon- i just chose the breed and my flight (wind), and actually moved to ice almost immediately after because wind was such an impulse decision. 

i actually hated her colors once i realized that i could have picked them myself, because i would have probably made a seafoam/rose dragon. but now i love her. it might have been cool if she at least had a different blue for the wings, so if i could remake her (and assume she got the same tert) i would give her storm wings. it brings out that gray tert in a really cool way and just makes her a biiit more interesting. i mean, look at that! it look great with her apparel, too.

i chose to make her a fae, because i though that they were cute. i didnt like any of the other starter breeds when i joined because i was a coward. i wanted the cutesiest dragons ever, which is funny considering now varsha is super badass

i had like... the vaguest clue of what fr was, because i was in the neopets community and a ton of the blogs i followed were into it, but i didnt really understand it in depth. fun fact! my original username was twinkling. 

exaltation

so when i first joined fr, from what i remember we had... very few tert options. i believe we had basic, crackle, underbelly and circuit? and with varsha’s tert being grey, and yukienne’s being denim... basically nothing looked even slightly decent.

on top of this, i really wasnt in the forums or community much at all- so i wasnt aware that maybe exalting your progens wasnt a great plan, and how special they can be. and i certainly wasnt thinking about future genes. i mean, its been 5 years and STILL the best tert for varsha is stained and i dont particularly love any i have for yukienne!  ive grown to like stained on varsha, but for real. even irishim couldnt save that grey tert, and i used to be OBSESSED with irishim

.im not against geneing yukienne fully and i have a few options planned, but denim is not.... its not an easy color to work with, which sucks because sky and violet work together so well, and then you have this random greenish-grayish blue. why. which is why he is not gened at all because oh my god. please fr give me something that makes denim purpley ill die for you

this is his current most likely scry but im still... not sold... at least sky is one of my favorite colors on site! hes still a pretty lucky random progen all things considered, i know some people were truly cursed. they also have a pretty okay range, so thats nice! i brought these guys back as quick as possible and was so excited i got the option so do so.

lore and clan roles

in the end, exaltation gave my progens a lot of character- although i was so upset about having done it for literal years, lol. my clan lore felt super weak up until bringing them back.

varsha is clan leader, but im undecided about yukiennes role- all i know is that he did essentially abandon varsha in exaltation and didnt actually fight to earn his right back to this plane, and she resents him for that. i can imagine they did talk initially about him rising up the politcal ladder rather than being involved in the war itself, and i imagine initially he was actually quite gentle and perhaps a bit skittish- she had more pity for him then, and understood he wouldnt fare as well. maybe she even thought it would help his confidence. but seeing him live a bejeweled life as she fought endlessly.... well, thats just not great. on top of it, he sees himself as responsible for their return, not acknowledging varshas efforts, and he does this despite the fact that there was no evidence of it.  so yukienne likely doesnt do much in the clan, and i imagine varshas bodyguard- nevara- keeps an eye on him until or if varsha decides hes trustworthy to help. in the end, he doesnt especially want to do things for the clan anyways- he doesnt feel the dedication that varsha does, and though varsha doesnt realize it hes worn himself. hes tired of lies and a political lifestyle, and i dont imagine hes as confident as he might come off- its likely more a force of habit, and in saying it was because of him they got home, he just more than anything wants validation that his suffering was just as painful and he worked just as hard as varsha. but she really cant see that. in her eyes, hes still sitting on a pedestal, lying and spoiled rotten. even if now hes just lost and tired more than anything else.

varsha obviously is very strong willed and stubborn, and sometimes has difficulty empathizing with others- particularly those she perceives as having caused her harm. shes not especially friendly, and a bit paranoid. still she cares a lot about others, particularly her clan members who she views as her responsibility, and so she pushes away her own feelings best she can. shes more prone to trust those from wind than from any other flight, and is working on her distrust of those from ice. 

she has a close bond to nevara due to her wind heritage and time spend together on the battlefield, and trusts her deeply. she also deeply trusts aer, the very dragon that first found her and yukienne, and the only from the clan at the time that did not know of her exaltation until it was too late. she appreciates the effort on her behalf to keep the clan in order and understands aer was also very hurt by what her clan members had done, and is glad to have someone from that time who had missed her. 

varsha also finds amaryllis sort of cute and charming.the wind heritage probably helps yet again in this case, but even beyond that, she appreciates someone so unfit for the role trying their very hardest to play leader to keep their clan together in her absence. she sees her somewhat like a little sibling, despite not having a large gap in age.

since mako worked so close to both amyrllis and aer during her absence, she was one of the first ice flight members in their clan that she warmed to. with her optimistic and free spirited attitude, and the fact that shes still willing to work in a political position (unlike amaryllis, who was happy to retire) she helps to balance out varshas negative views of people and also is very useful in giving intel and helping create strong bonds between their clan and others, since varsha... would probably never do so on her own, but does see the necessity.

yukienne, at this point, lives a fairly solitary lifestyle. being rejected by the person he admires most as well as feeling he betrayed and failed her, he sees himself unworthy of deeper relationships. at the same time, he is stubborn and unwilling to discuss and feels he doesnt deserve sympathy or to explain his side. all interactions and relationships he has are shallow. at the very least, he is genuinely very proud of his appearance, so thats probably the one thing he has actual confidence in.

[zephyrnoodles]

I saw the post abbout custom progens and I thought I jump onto this train, so here we are:

Name: Euros

I named her after the greek deity of the eastwind after I decided to join the windflight. It seemed fitting lol. I never changed her name, she has always been Euros and will always be.

Breed: Fae

I think it was a close call between Guardian and Fae. I’m not sure what topped the scales towards Fae, but well, here we are. I never changed her breed. I considered it but it just didn’t feel right, so she always stayed the tiny clan founder that she was created as. I knew basically nothing about the game except for the tiny bits of info my friends who introduced me to the game gave me, so I had nothing specific in mind when I created her.

Colors: Aqua, Seafoam, Tangerine

I chose the colors because I’m a sucker for blue, green and teal hues (I didn’t know there would be a third color randomly added). The tertiary color ended up being a bit unforrunate but I made my peace with it a long time ago lol and I never scattered her. I probably wouldn’t choose the very same colors if I had the chance to make another progen, but I wouldn’t choose wildy different colors either. Maybe stayin the same range but with colors that work a bit better together? I dunno. I never really put much thought into this tbh, so yeah, lol.

Genes: Wasp, Bee, Peacock 

Euros went through a bunch of gene scrolls before she ended up with with this gene combination. I fell in love with the Bee and Wasp gene the moment I first saw them. Peacock makes her tert gene actually work imho. It’s totally possible that I change her genes again if I find a gene combination I like more than the current one (even tho I’ll have to rewrite her lore then lol). But for now she’ll stay a blue/green glass shard.

Eyetype: Wind Faceted 

When the new eyetypes were introduced I wanted her to get the primal eyes so badly. I stopped using scattersight vials when I got faceted because I was kinda scared I would end up using all my vials without getting such a good result again. Also: Faceted eyes fit pretty good with her lore.

Exalted? Not at the moment

Yeah, I did exalt her for a while after we got the option to get our progens back without much fuss. I didn’t see it as exaltation though, but rather as Euros travelling the world and making new friends & experiences. This ties into her lore too so I didn’t feel bad when I exalted her that time. 

Role: Healer

She started out as the founder of the clan - and its leader. At some point she gave the role to one of her most trusted friends and left the clan to travel Sornieth as mentioned before. When she came back they offered her the leader job again but she declined and took up the role of the clan’s healer instead.* 

Skin: Kaja #1484

Apparel:  Paunchy Green Percher, Bone Antlers, River Royalist Tail Rings,  Whirlwind Emblem, Mysterious Cowl, Windbound Mask, River Royalist Cuffs,  Simple Gold Wing Bangles, Luminous Halo, Aerborne Halo, Kelly Green Locket, Whirlwind Sash

(I’d probably die of pure happiness if I ever get my hands on a windbound plumage for her. The dream, the unreachable goal...)

Her outfit doesn’t really look like a Healer and the skin hides her genes which are kinda important for her lore but uuuh... After all, she is not just a great healer but also a talented wielder of wind magic in combat situations. 

I just think she looks awesome this way okay lmao   ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

*I’ll put the link to her profile in a reblog if you are interested in her lore and want to check her out or something.

Lair Review: Kaial

Listen, I’m pretty sure I have your lair memorized at this point. When you boot dragons for sale I play the game of ‘which perma was this’ and oftentimes I’m right, and when I’m not I get myself all confused. Now, we got 12 dragons to do, let’s go take a dive! @pumpkin-bread

Let’s start with Hazel! Listen, I love pearl, I love pearl striation, I did not expect it to work with friggen stone, and eldritch is a damn hard tert color unless the dragon is green or blue. The fact that she works is a gotdang miracle, and she’s solidly a favourite in the nuzlocke, too!

This is Zuehal. We know nothing about him other than he is the resident NPC. But I’m gonna give him a shoutout anyway because this man clearly has a story he’s not telling, and my queer detection unit is ringing with “that is a GAY DRAGON” and keeps me wondering where he’s hiding his stellar backstory and probable boyfriend. I see you, NPC guy. I see you and I know there’s more to you than Kai is currently telling me. 

Ahhh, Ezekiel. I didn’t actually catch when Flores left other than he did (and it’s understandable why out-of-lore), but this? This is a good dragon. I have no idea when Kai bought him but the idea of a neato necromancer teacher is brilliant. And that’s how I ended up with Byaku and Albafica in my lair, because now I was thinking about necromancers in FR and not the ‘wooo I wear dark robes with skulls on them and green fire’ kind, so Thanks To This Guy I have two more dragons in my lair. You’ll still be a favourite, Zeke. Great name, by the way, I named a cat that once.

Mistfall, or in reality, That Stubborn Girl Who Just Wouldn’t Leave. Radioactive’s a damn difficult colour, even I don’t like it even though I can appreciate its rainbow potential, but Kai did a good job making it work anyway! Now if she had glowing green clawtips, maybe it’d balance it out a bit and make her look Even More Stunning. She’s beautiful, she really is. I love her.

Rosalyn’s been in Amberspire for a long, long time, and she’s still absolutely gorgeous, and even more her story’s so saaaad. She needs a happy ending. I really hope she gets one, she’s beautiful and so is her artwork. Still love the apparel, fpose coatls are notoriously annoying to me to dress  because of their funny shoulder area that I can never get right - yet, she looks amazing! I envy that, definitely.

We’re apparently halfway through, so let’s go with Ylva who got a new accent, I see! At least, I don’t remember her having that one. I love her, she’s very good, but I also know for a fact that this is an Evil Woman. I don’t know how she’s evil, but she is, there is quotation marks around her job and that means she is definitely not a hostess but something evil posing as one. I do not trust her. She is beautiful. I love her.

Ahhh, Lux. I’m still kinda mad at myself since I didn’t go get one of her kids when I had the chance, but she’s absolutely beautiful. I really love her accent and the way her pri and tert match like that, she’s gorgeous. The kelpie manes really were necessary for her and I especially love the double wing silks. I don’t remember who taught me how to layer them (it was someone layering gossamer+crimson to make the unreleased pink silks) but goddamn, when they work they work. I really love the PC fpose because they look a little like they’re praying, and Lux fits that really well, since she’s in mourning. I love her. She needs a hug.

NEAR MY BABY. The last time I checked in with Telyn, Near, and Wil; Telyn got himself kidnapped again - did he make it back home? Their bios don’t say. But Near is a very good boy and I love him, and he makes a great father. Plus he’s blind and still a warrior, which is awesome. His bio doesn’t actually tell his side of Telyn’s story, and I’m interested in seeing that for sure. Especially with how collected he is, how he reacted to the whole ‘you’re taking my husband away yet again to your shade cult’ thing. I wanna see what this boy is made of!

I am gotdang predictable, and I will never, ever, ever review this lair without mentioning My Baby Girl Althea. I know the nuzlocke is the main plot right now, but I wanna know what she’s been up to soooo much. Because we did establish that Annabella did learn at Tialla’s dance school so even though Althea wasn’t much in the picture, there’s no way Tialla wouldn’t look at her and immediately know she was Up To Something. I wanna know. I wanna see the showdown between her and Nihil (who I still don’t get because he doesn’t appear to have a soft spot, except he does, somehow?) and I want to know who Jacquara throws a pumpkin and a yell to calm down at first. Althea is My Girl. I am very honoured to have her daughter as mine.

Tialla is another favourite girl of mine! Her story is heartbreaking and absolutely perfect, and I want to know definitely if she ever finds her family again! She’s brilliantly complex and I really love her. I don’t have much to say on her other than ‘arhgahga she’s perfect’, but like, she is though. 

Ahhh, Cassis, a new boy to help support an impulse buy. I know that feeling very well. I can tell he’s gonna have a plot, and I only wonder what he let escape by accident and why it killed his power. I’m so ready for that plot, I really am. He’s absolutely beautiful, and while I’m not the biggest fan of stained, it probably is the only way rose will work on a double thicket. He’s really beautiful, and I just can’t wait to see what happens.

Lastly, well, there was never a way that I’d do this review without mentioning Gidget. I barely knew Kizzy, but... I’m glad I did get to know you, a little bit. Your birthday is in a few days, so... Thank you for the time you spent with us. I’m glad that the dragon you wanted so much ended up with someone who loved you as much as Kai does, so in a way, Gidget is yours too. Gidget is beautiful, and what has been done with her even more so. I can’t say for sure, but I think you’d be happy with that. I hope you rest well. Thank you, for your time with us. We’ll always be thinking of you. <3

And that’s that! 12 dragons (hopefully, I went back and counted but might be off) - which is a very difficult feat with the 200 someodd dragons Kai has that I know of. But I did manage to narrow it down in the end, so here we are! :D

Top 5 MBTI types! (as in types ya get on with best/find most interesting to read about)

Alrighty! Let’s see here...

1. Either ISFP or ESFP is one of my close friends’ types - we still haven’t figured out which (she’s busy with college and holidays too). Regardless, I do like interacting with some of the high Se people I know. They fascinate and amaze me with how they’re actually very calming to hangout with; contrary to the over-the-top stereotypes high-Se users get. They’re still willing to be daring and have fun, of course, but are mostly chill beyond belief!

The (likely) SFP close friend, for example, has this actual motto for herself, being a genuine “Oh well, that’s life!” A saying I would only use super sarcastically myself when frustrated. She deals waaaayyy more easily than I can if something goes wrong or out of control. Stuff can still stress her out like any other person, but that Se way of handling it from what I’ve noticed... It’s pretty darn admirable.

Basically, they’re WAY more flexible and care-free than I can ever be.

More related to ISFP/ESFP: I can be hit or miss with high (mostly dom) Fi people. Thankfully, I can still have close friends with high Fi! I just end up learning a LOT about how to handle them. Which is good anyways, honestly.

2. ENFPs or INFPs. Some of my other few close friends are of these types, most likely. They’re one of the few people I get along with the best, and I’ve known ‘em for over 8 years now. I didn’t quite hit off with the ENFP at first, especially since he also had his own issues with me when we had first become friends... But, we managed to overcome those obstacles. The (possible) INFP close friend is one I would consider a best friend of mine. I plan on looking more into typing her more thoroughly, though... Because lately I’ve been wondering if I understand her cognition correctly.

Another great friend may be INFP too, but I’m thinking of retyping him to be sure. I made these typings when I was still in the start of my learning with this system, and when I assumed myself an INTJ. :’D

3. INFJs. At least the one person I know who’s most certainly an INFJ. Despite our Te and Fe differences (and sometimes clashes), we get along really well!

It also proved helpful having an Ni-dom friend when I was in my own retyping process, because I started to realize I don’t lead with it as much as I had thought 1 - 2 years ago. Plus, I can notice the difference between Tert and Inf Se more clearly. That said, we still have the same perceiving functions, which makes for some interesting dynamics between us (especially with our opposite judging functions).

4. ISTP is a type I like reading about here-and-there, apparently. It’s likely the fact that high Se intrigues me, but Ti-Fe is one heck of a dynamic I try learning more about. It’s somewhat similar, yet drastically foreign to the way my Te-Fi works. I’m not sure if I know any Ti-doms personally (I’ve known some definite ExTPs), though I’ve met a couple of likely Ti-doms. And, sometimes Fi-doms can seem similar to Ti-doms if I’m not paying attention enough.

5. ESFJ; though I only have been good friends with one ESFJ. The ESFJ I had known was the purest person I met aside from my SFP friend I have today. She does have some bit of a disability, which makes social situations more rough for her, but I can still see she leads with strong Fe motivations and functionality.

This ESFJ wanted to make friends with everyone, and that included me when I was a fresh new 9th grader. However, back then, I feared making new friends due to seeming like a magnet to being bullied. Every. Single. School. Some of those bullies were people who were my “friends” at first.

And yet, this ESFJ was committed to get my to hangout with her or talk to her. Idk what she saw in me, and she did just like plain meeting new people, etc. But, her stubbornness in becoming my friend actually helped me overcome the bad state I was in. So, I thank her for that, and consider her a highly valuable person no matter if we’ve lacked contact these days. 

We were pretty close as she became like a little sister to me too; and eventually when I saw her getting bullied while at that school with her, I made sure to keep those jerks in their place.

She was too kind for her own good and extremely opposite to me. But we got along just fine! I’d say she’s good enough reason to place an ESFJ in my list even if I’ve been close to only one person of the type (from what I’m aware of).

That’s my top 5 for MBTI types! Hopefully it didn’t go too long (let alone too sad-sounding/dragged-on in the end). Thank you for the ask!

New House Construction Price Failure

PEX failures

If you stay in Visit this page a location vulnerable to quakes, copper is very resilient and might not break throughout a quake, conserving your residence from costly water damage. After warming up the water, the hot water heater shoots the it out into the warm water service lines. The hot water service lines run parallel to the cool water service lines. If you check out reviewed service pipes, you'll observe 2 pairs of pipes running parallel to each other throughout your home.

How long is rough in plumbing?

The Charmin Ultra Soft which claimed on its packaging that it wouldn't clog your pipes, did dissolve but not nearly as much as the cheap stuff. This toilet paper would not cause your pipes to clog.

PEX as well as CPVC are both plastics as well as are exceptional options to the costly copper piping. It can set you back in the neighborhood of $1,000 to $5,000 to eliminate existing plumbing in an older residence. Normally, it's consisted of in the rate of repiping a residence instead of treated as an individual price.

Does insurance cover Repiping?

If plumbers find the leaks are extensive, you should consider having repiping done. You most likely won't need to have whole-house repiping, but the plumbers may find patches of corrosion along your copper pipes. It's resistant to most forms of corrosion, but not all of them.)

Mounting rough-in plumbing pipelines for new construction costs $4.50 per square foot while repiping an existing home with PEX tubing sets you back $0.40 to $2.00 per direct foot. A lot of property owners spend $2,280 to $5,120 to mount brand-new pipes in their house. Replacing a tub, commode, or sink will set you back between $450 and also $1,800 per fixture. The expense to change pipelines under your home is merely the price to mount a brand-new plumbing system which can range from $2,000 to $15,000 or more. You can mount new copper pipes for $3 to $8 per direct foot, or $0.40 to $0.50 per linear foot for PEX hose pipe.

Running the electric circuitry throughout all the rooms and also hooking it approximately the power outlets as well as lights is no tiny job.

If you detect a leakage and choose a patching work instead of a repiping job, simply remember that all the pipes in your home are possibly made from the same product and also they might be following.

The plumbing vent pipes create a pathway to allow air from outdoors back right into the pipes system when water is hurrying away pipelines.

We hope this aids you to better comprehend new residence building costs and avoid being stunned with unexpected building expenses.

The most noticeable are Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether (MTBE) and Tert-Butyl Alcohol (TBA). Consequently the key factor for leaching of chemicals from PEX is over-chlorination.

I have had numerous conversations recently with possible clients regarding their septic tanks. A number of the very same inquiries turned up, and I have actually answered them commonly in the past so I thought it could be handy to cover some fundamentals today. What adheres to is a very streamlined description of an entailed as well as complicated system of pipelines, microorganisms, waste, and soil profiles and also just how each engage to cleanse home waste. Cam inspection.If the auger or water jet does not unblock the sewage system line, you can request a visual (video camera) examination to determine what's causing the clog. The small cam can reveal cracks and breaks in the sewage system pipe, along with problems in the line that might need your local hygiene department's interest.

What is the most effective installation to utilize with PEX Piping?

If you identify a leakage and also opt for a patching job as opposed to a repiping task, just remember that all the pipelines in your home are possibly made from the same product and they may be next. To stay clear of better, more-costly fixings (like water damage from burst pipelines), you might intend to consider repiping your entire house when you identify a leakage. epiping a house is a huge task that sets you back a decent piece of adjustment. So you require to know when a little repair can be made, a single pipe requires to be changed or when your entire pipes system needs to be gutted and also repiped.

Does shower water go into the septic tank?

The cost to repipe a house with PEX tubing is $0.40 to $0.50 per linear foot depending on the size of the house and the extent of replumbing you're doing. Repiping a 2,000 square foot home with PEX costs between $2,000 and $4,000. PEX is plastic tubing or hose with many beneficial characteristics.

[mbti-notes]

(1/8) Yayy, I love Fleabag and I love your blog and everything you write, so I hope you're up for a discussion of your typings (and I hope all the asks come through). Agree about Fleabag, the Godmother and Harry's (his frequent breakups with Fleabag seemed INFJ door slams, but his endgame points to Si) typings. Boo and Fleabag seemed to have been the sort of BFFs who matched because their personalities were quite similar... What made you conclude ESFP rather than ENFP? Same goes for Martin...

Boo’s interests are all concrete, her thinking is always immediate and short-term, Ni grip was apparent in her hasty death.

Same goes for Martin. While I see signs of tertiary Fe in his deliberate manipulation of Claire and pleasure at bringing Fleabag down, and also the overall recklessness of unhealthy EPs, I couldn’t be sure whether he was Se or Ne dom.

I see no evidence of dominant Ne nor inferior Si but many vulgarities and desires that are indicative of unhealthy Se.

What about the Bank Manager? My memory of series one is fuzzy, but he makes an effort to work things out with Fleabag (and women in general) even if he judges too quickly, which could point at aux/tert Te-Fi, I guess.

He is honest and straightforward, no pretension, but severely limited in his perspective. His moral reasoning ability is rather rudimentary, which makes F unlikely. His life is in a deep rut and he is drawn to Fleabag because she is his opposite and helps spark his lower function development. She comes to symbolize the key to understanding his failures and frustrations (both in terms of how he treats women and his lack of function development), therefore, helping her succeed is also helping himself find his own way. He’s reconciling who he is by reckoning with his past mistakes through Fleabag.

The Father clearly struggles with expressing his feelings. He wants to communicate better with Fleabag, but he understands and prefers Claire (a T), so probably IxTx, perhaps Ti-Fe if we consider the main issues presented in the story plus the fact that he quickly fell for Godmother, a Fe dom? I’d like to know your reasoning for him. Anyway, I’d typed Claire and the Priest as ISTJ and ENFJ respectively, and these ones I was sure to have gotten right. xSTJ was clear for Claire, and episode 203 was the one that cemented her as ISTJ for me. She is constantly anxious and full of routines and rituals and micromanages everything, from actions to looks to even jokes, implying a lot of overthinking (I); she clashes with Fleabag because she’s insecure about the possibility of not being as interesting and funny as Fleabag (tertiary Fi). Also, she tries to pretend that she enjoyed the night, that her marriage is going well and that she thinks Fleabag kissed Martin rather than the opposite because of Si’s need to maintain security and stability and not lose what she’s conquered. By accepting her individuality, her feelings and the possibility of something better for herself, she takes action to improve her life, which implied much needed extraverted development. Also, most ESTJs I’ve met, despite being control freaks privately, are more adaptable and relaxed as well, especially in public (higher Te-Ne).

The show centers around Fleabag’s dysfunction. In Si grip, Fleabag tries to pinpoint Boo’s death (and her own hand in causing it) as the “point of origin” but her problems go far deeper than that, all the way back to her family relationships. Everyone in the family is equally messed up despite appearances. The show doesn’t go very far into the historical causes of their collective dysfunction, but it does a good job of illustrating the dysfunctional patterns as they exist in the present. The characters are largely products of old family patterns, therefore, it’s hard to understand each member individually without the context of their collective family dynamic.

A very common family dynamic involves projecting all of the family’s history of dysfunction onto the “weakest link”, aka, the black sheep. The black sheep is usually “chosen” according to their so-called inferiority for failing to live up to the family’s unspoken values, then they are routinely criticized and shamed for being something that is perceived as contrary to the family’s survival and well-being. Over time, this dynamic places an unspoken duty/expectation onto the black sheep, namely that they should always be “the one that ruins everything” whenever the family requires a scapegoat to deflect responsibility for dysfunctional behavior. Fleabag is obviously the black sheep, so everyone uses her as the punchline (for easing tension), the punching bag (for displacing their frustration), and the punch down (for a cheap win during power struggles).

As a defense mechanism, Fleabag believes that she is actually the superior member of the family because she’s “clever” enough to see through people’s fakery or hypocrisy. Despite the concrete proof of her own life being a total mess, she likes to think of herself as being more self-aware than others, i.e., she implicitly blames her life failures on the fact that she can’t fake it or lie to herself like everyone else. However, she doesn’t realize that playing the black sheep role is her form of self-deception. She is deeply caught up in a logical contradiction of knowing she is less than but also believing herself better than, and we see this over and over again in her asides to the audience. By exercising crude power in exposing other people’s fakery, she doesn’t have to look at her own and expose herself, and this plays perfectly into the family pattern that always ends up ricocheting back onto her. Whenever she exposes anything resembling the truth of the family’s dysfunction, regardless of whether she does it kindly or maliciously, she is roundly blamed for “acting out”, being “cruel”, “screwing up”, “ruining everything”, etc etc. The family immediately comes together to activate the scapegoating pattern and, in the end, nothing changes and the pattern repeats the next time they get together. Her twisted way of “caring” for her family is to play the black sheep, and their twisted way of “bonding” is to collectively reinforce their status as not the black sheep.

When people treat you like a black sheep long enough, you believe it and it becomes your identity, and playing this role so well leads her to blow up all of her relationships outside of the family. In accumulating many failed relationships, it’s very easy to slide into settling for less or settling for what you think you deserve, and she has been trained over a lifetime to feel less than deserving. As a defense mechanism, she’s romantically attracted to people who aren’t capable of knowing who she really is, which in turn gives her justification for blowing up each relationship as they are always shallow and meaningless anyway. But this automatic and destructive pattern hits rock bottom when she destroys the only person who’s managed to really know her. She then gradually becomes more aware that she’s repeating unconscious conditioning and could perhaps choose otherwise, but ingrained patterns are hard to change without help and guidance, which eventually invites the influence of the priest.

You might think that their father bears the brunt of the blame for the family being so dysfunctional, but he has plenty of his own unresolved issues that make him more like a child than a parent. The show does not offer any explanation for him but everyone has a history. It seems that he has always been emotionally absent and socially inept in that he allowed their mother to do all of the parenting and caregiving. He is not aggressive, obsessive, or controlling as you would expect for unhealthy TJs, rather, he is detached, distant, avoidant, and indifferent. When you talk to him face-to-face, there is some natural warmth there, but once you are out of his sight, you are out of his mind. You know that he loves you in his way, you know that he tries to empathize, but you also know that he utterly fails to understand anything about you no matter how hard either side tries to bridge the gap. It’s hard to fault him for what is clearly a “disability”? Because of his ineptitude, he traps himself in a codependent relationship with his shadow opposite type, a narcissistic person who calls all the shots in the relationship so that he never has to lift a finger, i.e., he never ever has to bear moral responsibility for anything, and taken to an absurd conclusion, he lives in a pitiful state of learned helplessness. You never have to feel bad if you never do anything, right? Wrong, he is still guilty of sins of omission, and for that he’s never able to truly be at ease no matter what he does to shed away every difficulty. Ideally, a good stepmom takes care of the step-kids, but he was not lucky enough to snag one, so he must accede to the bad stepmom’s judgment or else, heaven forbid, he loses his easy life by having to take responsibility for the girls on his own.

Unhealthy TPs need uptight Js to help them keep life in order, but they often prefer Ps for their amusing company. The father does not “prefer” Claire for what/who she is, rather, he merely appreciates that she doesn’t make any trouble for him, which he wants to believe absolves him of blame. He can say, “See, I have one good daughter, so it’s not my fault that the other one is bad”. There are many parallels between Claire and her father in how they approach relationships very passively and helplessly. Deep down, his heart actually prefers Fleabag for the fact that she more closely resembles her mother and the fact that she is braver than him and challenges him (to be better). He wishes to have a better relationship with her, similar to what he must’ve had with her mother, but he’s unfortunately incapable of containing the dysfunction that bad parenting and unresolved grief has wrought upon her.

You say that Claire should be more flexible if tertiary Ne, but why would you expect her to have any healthy functions? She clearly suffers inferior grip quite often and thus cannot use any of her functions optimally. Every SJ with unhealthy Si-Ne uses micromanagement of routines/rituals as a crutch, so this is true for both dominant and auxiliary Si - your claim here only proves SJ. She’s just as fucked up as Fleabag is, only she is better at repressing her feelings, and for this alone, ISTJ is very unlikely. ISTJs are introverts and they prefer to give up and be at peace rather than double and triple down on stupid behavior in the manner that Claire often does. Her main problem in life is that everything she does to “manage” situations results in her betraying herself in some way, which is strongly indicative of infantile Fi. I disagree that stubbornness is her fatal flaw ala Si-Fi loop; if that were the case, she’d be more than happy to give up everything to Fi loop and disappear into the background. She would also never ever go near Fleabag nor trust her with anything due to the fact that she has already encountered countless past experiences of Fleabag blowing up situations in awful and unpredictable ways. ISTJs are at their least forgiving and never forget whenever it comes to delegating important tasks.

I argue that what gets Claire truly upset is not being unprepared for “all negative possibilities in the abstract” but rather the possibility of LOSING FACE, i.e., being publicly humiliated and exposed as the uncool simpering hypocrite that she is, which is indicative of deep-seated fear of Fi (she envies Fleabag for her “cool” factor for this reason). Unhealthy Te doms, falling apart internally, are still capable of maintaining functionality in external life far longer than other types. She suffers from serious grip problems but still manages to perform her duties at home and at work, which simply wouldn’t be possible for Ne grip. With Fi grip, she instantly switches to very ugly self-pity and irrationally self-protective behavior when threatened by anything. Her instinct upon feeling the vulnerability of exposure is to go on and on and on about how “successful” she is, which usually includes a few rounds of punching down at everyone in an attempt to disown her bad decision making. ISTJs are rarely capable of bullshitting themselves to that extreme; they are more likely to react with humility and even resignation when presented with incontrovertible proof of their failures (see: Bank Manager).

Claire was probably expected to be “the responsible one” (aka elder/caregiver sibling archetype) because there was no one else to take responsibility. However, at this point in her life, she has achieved enough career success to be independent from the family. The fact that she can’t help herself from enacting her old role speaks to the lack of self-insight that is characteristic of inferior Fi, i.e., as much as she complains about hating the pressures and headaches of being “the responsible one”, she unconsciously LOVES it because it grants her a superior position in the family. She’s not willing to give up the pain because she’s not willing to give up the payoff, and this internal love-hate contradiction is what makes her relationship with Fleabag dysfunctional despite the love and affection they have for each other. I don’t think ISTJs are able to bear such obvious internal contradiction and still manage to claim integrity. ISTJs find it much more painful, if not impossible, to pretend and posture for the sake of appearances, because they are supremely stubborn people when it comes to preserving their subjective sense of integrity. By contrast, inferior Fi makes it very easy to ignore subjective integrity and choose destructive methods of obtaining feelings of power and superiority, hence she ends up betraying her own well-being all the time.

As for the Priest, we both agree on him being a Fe dom. What made me choose Ni rather than Si is that he admitted to have been quite a different person in the past by alluding to his many sexual experiences, probably a hint of Se as well. But then he met God and everything took a 180 for him (N, not S), implying that he was uncomfortably adrift for a while and needed a sense of meaning and a clear vision of his path ahead to feel whole (Ni). Also, PWB has said that Fleabag was drawn to the Priest because he has an established sense of purpose, which she’s been looking for, which highlights their P vs J and Ne vs Ni differences. You could argue that he was drawn to her because of tertiary Ne, but I don’t see signs of Si’s typical grounded outlook (he uses a lot of abstractions to explain his ideas) or typical adherence to traditions (the path to his faith wasn’t primarily through this motivation as it happens to many) or typical narrow-mindedness (quite the opposite, he used to be quite open to experiences due to Fe+Se). Oh, and I forgot to mention, the Priest can read and understand Fleabag so well that he even gets to enter her internal world and listen to her personal thoughts. To be able to understand people with this level of depth is, of course, more natural for xNFJs rather than xSFJs, who help people on a more practical level (Fe+Ni v Fe+Si).

I think your understanding of Si is still quite stereotypical. ESFJs have a common pattern of using Ne to “find themselves” only to end up lost because what they’re really doing is Ne loop. ESFJs tend to grow up feeling very pressured to be rule abiders and it is common for them to go through a rebellious stage a bit later in life compared to other types, once the pressure finally reaches a breaking point. After swinging from the painful oppression of “rule observant” behavior in youth to the painful failures of “rule breaking” behavior in young adulthood, they eventually boomerang back to old touchstones, i.e., they ground themselves by rediscovering comfort in the known. IIRC, the priest felt lost and eventually revisited religion for guidance, he made the beliefs his own rather than blindly following dogma, and he chose to commit his life to doing good because HE genuinely wanted to, not because family/society told him to. A healthy ESFJ establishes a stronger sense of self once they reconcile with the past and make “rule following” more palatable by turning it into a personal choice (rather than feeling obligated to constantly self-sacrifice). I disagree that he “transformed” from one person into a completely different one, I think it’s more accurate to say that he had no idea who he was and got increasingly lost until he discovered himself by looking backward and making sense of his past experience. 

Religion is an abstract concept, there’s no avoiding abstract discussions about religious beliefs when you’re debating a non-believer, especially when that non-believer is Ne dom. Ne is tertiary and people often use tertiary functions for relief, therefore, ESFJs tend to enjoy abstract discussions, especially of the Ne variety that is full of humor and playfulness, exactly like the kind that he gets with Fleabag. I dare you to try joking around with a “true believer” ENFJ. Their beliefs are deadly serious to them, so they show far less patience for sacrilegious play (unless, for some reason, they have developed an irrational fear of being criticized as dogmatic and pretend to be open-minded). Also, why would an *N*FJ be shocked and alarmed or seem resistant to using intuition to “read” people? Why would their intuition seem so painfully accidental? NFJs generally LIKE using intuition and do it naturally as part of who they are, they embrace it and feel more confident the more they are in touch with it.

Ns tend to speak in abstractions but not everyone who speaks in abstractions is N, similarly, every NJ needs a sense of purpose but not everyone who seeks a purpose is NJ -> beware this logical fallacy: “every cat has four legs but not every four-legged creature is a cat”. NJs need a purpose for materializing their personal potential, SJs seek a purpose for the sake of grounding themselves in something unshakable within - you point out the behavior without grasping the true motivation. When ESFJs develop Si well, they recognize that what makes them happy is to be of service, to be a positive contributor to their community, to be a reliable source of help and comfort to those in need. He is not a charismatic and boastful preacher of the ENFJ sort, rather, he sees himself as a humble servant who uses reliable traditional beliefs to help ground people who feel lost in hectic modern life, using his own past experience as the starting point. The fact that he has the strength to end the relationship with Fleabag before it becomes negative and destructive is a testament to Si steadfastness and how strongly the rules matter to him (Ns are very masterful at rationalizing that the rules don’t apply to them, and that’s often how they end up in bad places). Why would you expect him to display all sorts of negative signs of Si if he is meant to be the positive moral guidance for the show? And wouldn’t it make sense for him to use his well-developed Si to reveal to Fleabag the true extent of her dysfunctional Si? Would an ENFJ instinctively know better than an ESFJ how to remedy Si specific identity dysfunction?

Can you please allow us to submit things to you? In the case of long asks like mine, it helps to avoid any part not getting sent.

I have considered this before but I’m not sure I want to do that.

Genes: You can do better FR.

Okay, I think I’ve waited long enough. I’ve been salty about this for years.

Will whoever is in charge of familiars go talk to the fucking gene design people!? Because clearly they need to copy your notes.

How is it we get these as familiars?

https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/flightrising/images/3/3b/Chipskink.png

https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/flightrising/images/9/90/Citrine_Cave_Jewel.png

https://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/flightrising/images/0/02/Leopard_Coralclimber.png

And the best the gene jerks can do is this?

Coatl/Tiger/Stripes (Metals/Metals)

Coatl/Clown/Eyespot (Metals/Metals)

Do they even look at nature for hints? Nature’s damn good at designs, rip nature off and make it work (you did it with Poison and Skink, so clearly you guys can pick up ideas a little bit.) Good god, the guy who tried to make interesting color designs for Disney’s Dinosaur had better gene/pattern ideas than the FR gene team. He made a fucking Mallard look decent! And these are his super restrained designs for Disney, which, as we know, all ended up being shades of beige.

He gets a bit wilder on his own projects.

http://ricardodelgadoart.blogspot.com/2015/05/ancient-egyptians-color-schemes-alpha.html

http://ricardodelgadoart.blogspot.com/2015/05/ancient-egyptians-color-scheme.html

http://www1.flightrising.com/forums/ann/2186134/1

His stripy theropods are ages better than whatever Tapir’s going to look like. (Oh look, stripes and spots together, what a novel pattern FR should really use without fucking it up *coughJupiter*cough* and soon to be Tapir….)

For the record, an actual baby Tapir.

Pinterest… so you know, what’s attribution there?

You want to redo Tiger? You don’t make that half-ass, barely-there, gets-cut-in-half-by-Underbelly Savannah (Or the, “I want a Secondary but not really” Safari!),

You do a goddam zebra!

https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/flightrising/images/1/11/Barred_Skira.png

Or a stripy pufferfish!

https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/flightrising/images/9/98/Mirage_Puffer.png

So gene people, get on the ball, the familiar team is kicking your ass in designs and patterns (and if you’re somehow the same people, then you ought to be doubly kicked in the ass for being so half-ass about your genes *cough*shitastic bleeding gradient garbage Thylacine*cough* when you clearly put actual effort into Familiars).

You wanna do Smoke? You make that crap look like actual Smoke, not that noodly crap we’ve got now.

Coatl/Metals/Metals/Peacock (Basic/Smoke)

We’ve got Smoke Gyres and statistically one of you butts must smoke, vape or know someone who does, so you know what smoke looks like and how it acts! Pick a starting point (the paws, the belly, head -> tail, something and you make it look like smoke.)

https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/flightrising/images/a/a1/Smoke_Gyre.png

Or hell, you could’ve really gone out on a design limb and copied the Smoke cat coat pattern.

https://iheartcats.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/shutterstock_35015263.jpg

http://www.silverdance.de/images/Rasse/SilverdanceParisBlues75and95M.gif

A Obs/Obs/Cyan smoke tundra would’ve been pretty damn cool looking (smoke-gene being that the base color of a hair is lighter than the top half of the hair, so basically every hair part on a tundra would’ve shown a smoky undercolor, on skinned breeds, the undercolor would’ve been in the folds and curves, just imagine a double-layered iridescent!), it would'v been a hell of a lot better of a shaded gradient filter than what you did with Stained. Which goes from making shit tert colors somewhat bearable to looking fantastic to “why does that dragon make me think my glasses are dirty”?

Why am I complaining? Because you can all goddam do better on genes, the familiars show that you can.  So stop being fucking lazy, a computer fills in all the colors for you now, so you don’t have any “it’s so hard to color in” excuses. Give the program something to fucking work with, that’s why you’re there to do small tweaks when the bulk computer coloring is done. And actually do them instead of mass shipping out shitty colors like you did with Stained, you could’ve at least tried to do some texture on that one and make it worth the gem cost, but now it’s too late. 

Experiment with your genes, make some of those genes touch the belly, and work over UB and Glim (Ripple, Skink -only on bog throats for some reason-, Savannah), stop confusing hugeass gradients and color blobs for “pretty designs” (Okapi, Thylacine, Stained), fucking follow your suggestion requirement that the genes work in combination with at least a few other genes (Runes, gee thanks for running over the Skink spots.  Contour, You didn’t need to think it wasn’t painted on in MS did you).  At least whoever did Opal knew what they were doing, even if they were sorta uneven at picking placement for max effect (stop with the fucking face blobs on guardians, they’ve got Jay Leno chins, horns and cheek frills you could throw crap on for a change, but no, it’s bird-crap spatter to the face every time with them.  You had the right idea on Male snappers and SDs, do more of that!)

*takes a deep breath*

It was nice to get that off my chest, FR’s not going to change, of course, genes will continue to be occasionally good but generally shitty and not pay attention to musculature, countershading, distinctivenes, breed specifics.  But hell, at least it keeps the Skin artists in business…..

What's the phrase that's said of an INTJ and ISTP partnership? The scary team? Unstoppable Duo? How would you describe INTJ+ISTP?

Yeah, for sure. I’ve also seen “Damage Control: ISTP = Damage, INTJ = Control” which also amuses me. John Shepard and Elizabeth Weir have been described as an ISTP/INTJ dynamic and they’re definitely a good example of what that kind of partnership can look like. 

I think ISTP/INTJ parternships can be great because these two types are very complimentary in a lot of ways. Both types are thinking, but with juxtaposed Ti/Te so ideas that either party comes up with will be developed by the other’s Ni or Se, respectively. Ti will break things down to definable elements, Te will build ideas up to actualized potential. Ni/Se means that tangible plans with weighted consequences can be developed. Low order Fi/Fe means both types will be logical with each other and most likely not overwhelm the other’s feeling capabilities. 

A good friend of mine is an INTJ and we have a strong Thinking connection that makes both of us comfortable with each other and exploring ideas. While Intuition/Sensing does offer significant difference, it’s good for types to learn how to develop these preferences in themselves by being around someone else who uses it more strongly. 

Funny story as an example: me, my INTJ friend and my INFJ sister were shopping together. As we each went to shop our separate ways, I was stopped by a handsome stranger who started a conversation with me and eventually asked for my phone number. Not trusting this random-ass dude with my phone number no matter how charming (thanks tert. Ni), I talked for a few minutes but ultimately declined to give in to his request for my number. As I met up with INTJ and INFJ, I started having second thoughts. INTJ said, “Ok, well try this: I’m going to set a timer for two minutes. You can talk, backtrack, wish-wash, and vent as much as you want for the two minutes but then you have to make a decision and not go back on it.” I said ok, talked through my thoughts with them for another two minutes, and decided to stick with my original decision. Satisfied with this outcome, I turned the topic to a different subject, but INFJ was flabbergasted that INTJ’s plan had worked. “How did you do that?? If a cute guy wanted my number and I didn’t know what to do it would take me forever to make a decision!” I looked at INTJ and we both shrugged. It made sense to us…never underestimate the power of a Thinker-Thinker connection! 

(Also, in an interesting case of having your intuitions confirmed, we passed the guy later as we were walking to our car and he was using the literal same lines he given me on another random girl…I was extremely tempted to run over and say “THANKS for all those NICE THINGS you said I’d actually LOVE to give you my NUMBER just LET ME KNOW when you want to GO OUT SOMETIME!!!” just to mess with him and see what would happen. I guess I can see where the whole Damage/Control bit comes from, lol…)
