These looked good, so i'm adding them for more info. Got lazy and missed a few.
What is beauty? What is love?
Beauty is awareness like clockwork; the feeling of mentally grasping the moving parts; the unchanging elements that lend stability; the awareness of how it all elegantly fits together to form something. The pattern plays and is understood, even if not in it's entirety.
Love is valuing beyond a conscious process.
closer to Ti with this one
What are your most important values?
Being knowledgeable, fair, objective, independent.
Do you have any sort of spiritual/religious beliefs, and why do you hold (or don't) those beliefs in the first place?
I was an enculturated Hindu. Always held belief at a distance, never really considering it a true part of my identity, and seeing it as something that people acted out but not really held a belief in. As a youth forced to attend temple, I spent most of my time mulling over the nature of existence, the meaning of the rituals and words, and playing around with the ideas inherent in the religion, without really believing any of it. As I grew older, I maintained the same attitude, never really believing, but finding the ideas interesting to think about and explore. I picked up a disdain for the material world in my teens, touching shallowly on Buddhism, though it wasn't a big switch in perspective.
Opinion on war and militaries? What is power to you?
As long as there are differing opinions, limited resources, and fear, war will exist. The struggle for resources plays out in various scales of life, but goes unnoticed for the players being too different from us. Militaries are a necessary part of war, though the massive waste of life over what may amount to ideological differences is regrettable. Power is being able to win, without the struggle having to play itself out.
What have you had long conversations about? What are your interests? Why?
The longest conversations i've been involved in tended to be around the nature of existence, the nature of time and space, the hidden structures underlying nature, the capability of myself and my conversational partner to reach our potentials, discussions of shared experiences and potential future plans, as well as conversations about discussing video games and some of the concepts involved with putting together a game's systems. Pretty vague so far, but I tend to reticence unless the topic is really interesting, and I have some familiarity with my conversational partners.
My interests tend toward self-improvement, computing devices in the abstract, virtual reality, potentially new and interesting technologies, game systems and worlds(i guess in the imaginative sense. I really enjoy thinking about how certain games, like rpgs, divide up characters into various classes, their capabilities and so forth. I tend to enjoy thinking about them more than playing them.) I'm interested in understanding mathematics and physics at a deeper level, though I touch shallowly on them in favor of fanciful systems.
such as Socionics huh
Interested in health/medicine as a conversation topic? Are you focused on your body?
I find health moderately interesting to talk about, though I tend to grow disgusted at the constantly changing trends in health. I try to find the things that seem effective, because I don't have the proper scientific understanding to really delve into the topics, and I don't care to focus my efforts there. I tend to be focused on my body as it pertains to my mental state. I value the feeling of clarity, so I try various health related things(adjusting diet/exercise) to reach that. Otherwise, I ignore it on a daily basis, and tend towards pushing myself in unhealthy ways(I stay up longer than I should, causing a sleep deficit; I ignore the fact that it's cold or raining out, and just push through)
What do you think of daily chores?
Put them off as long as possible. I will always find something else that I want to do instead.
This messes with my LII typing
Books or films you liked? Recently read/watched or otherwise. Examples welcome.:
Mistborn Series, Yojimbo, The man from earth, Malazan:Book of the Fallen, ASOIAF, Foundation:Book 1
What has made you cry? What has made you smile? Why?
Can't remember the last time I cried. 10+ years.
The stupidest jokes can make crack a smile, though I don't really find them funny.
Not really sure what else makes me smile, or cry.
Where do you feel: at one with the environment/a sense of belonging?
A nice library, or, anyplace with a group of good friends.
What have people seen as your weaknesses? What do you dislike about yourself?
Others probably see me as inexpressive, unambitious, sometimes impractical, passive and unwilling to do things I don't care for. Probably boring as well.
As for myself, I detest my poor social ability, inability to form relationships, tendency to delay and inability to really persist and achieve things I set out to do.
Again. Undecided between rational and irrational. I could see ILI here , as inferior Se could bring a sense of "lack of motivation". LIIs I know IRL look pretty persistent to me. I haven't known any really close so that I can tell whether they struggle with it or not.
What have people seen as your strengths? What do you like about yourself?
People have said that i'm open-minded, objective, and fair.
I value the same in myself.
In what areas of your life would you like help?
Every area is in critical condition.
Ever feel stuck in a rut? If yes, describe the causes and your reaction to it.:
Yes. I tend to feel a lack of motivation and energy, really feeling too lifeless and stuck in my head to do anything, even with a bunch of possibilities open to me, while I continue with the same daily routine. In reaction, I tend to reach out to friends(I don't really talk to friends on a daily basis), go out and do something to break up the monotony. Usually go out to eat and catch a movie.
What qualities do you most like and dislike in other people? What types do you get along with?
Tend to enjoy others optimism, ability to bring something more to an experience in terms of creating a lighter and more enjoyable atmosphere. I tend to dislike unnecessary negativity, dogmatic belief, and close-mindedness
probably Alpha SF - seeking . I'm afraid I cannot help you here . ..... (this is what you need lol)
