Thoughts in Fiday

Whenever I find myself in an ambiguous situation involving a potential relationship, I take a step back. Regardless of whether there’s physical distance or not, I look at the small nuances - at people’s actions. It’s easy enough to say caring or lovely things, but what actual deeds follow those… read more

Altruism Beyond Reciprocity: Sex, Time, and the Cultural Mediation of Prosociality

## Abstract This essay examines a thesis that circulates increasingly in both academic and popular discourse: that men exhibit a distinctive form of altruism — unconditional, indifferent to reciprocal benefit, oriented toward the long term and toward future generations — and that contemporary… read more

Beneath the Storm: Embracing the Chaos of BPD

In the depths of emotion, where chaos resides, A journey commences, where the heart collides. A dance with shadows, a tempest inside, This is life's canvas, with BPD as our guide. A maelstrom of feelings, intense and untamed, A kaleidoscope palette, ever-changing, unnamed. Like wildfire, emotions… read more

It’s funny how so many people say they’re looking for a real connection… but their actions don’t always match that intention.

If you truly want something meaningful, effort has to go both ways. You can’t expect depth while giving dry replies, disappearing mid-conversation, or leaving the other person to carry everything. A relationship...even at the talking stage...isn’t a one-person job.Sometimes it feels like there are… read more

Would you rather having a chaotic relationship or a boring one?

I'm currently reading David Deida's "The way of the superior man". In one of the chapters, David talks about polarity and how men with more feminine energy tend to be more attracted to masculine women while men with more masculine energy tend to be attracted to feminine women. Well, what I found… (edited) read more

What do you think?

This is a really interesting discussion about how people select potential partners during the courtship period. On the one hand, some argue that "testing" is necessary, even going to extremes like living together or sleeping together before committing, to avoid making the wrong choice. But on the… read more

Extremes

I love deep talks about life. If you do as well, lets chat :) (edited)

Women getting kidnepped

So surprisingly I've been hearing this is an experience that a bunch of women go through, at the extremes anyway. Its either this, or stalking, or even guys just being weird towards them. Anyone wanna corroborate on this? If yeer comfortable talking about this of course. Is it common? Or just… read more

Not certain

Due to the nature of existence, we cannot be certain, but: It feels like the machine spirits are encouraging the existence of the chaos around us, we hope that you all can appreciate the extremes of the world and the lives we are formed to live

Humanity in Video Games: Warframe

Have you ever had the feeling that there are characters who, due to how they are developed, feel very human? Whether in a book, comic, or video game, writers create universes where characters face various difficulties in order to develop the protagonists, secondary characters, tertiary characters,… read more

Do you hesitate, when you feel like contacting someone?

I believe there are, here, two main population, without real "in between" : - those that don't care nor hesitate when they want to contact people. They want to ? They do. - those that will always think twice before trying to contact people. And most of the time, may want to, but ultimately don't… read more

*sigh*

I wish I had someone ine who would want to dress me up for a yule ball or new year's ball. I'm capable of Netflix and chilling but I currently hate feeling trapped and alone. I wish I wanted less of what I want but somehow I sabotage myself in completely avoidable extremes. I know it's fair to shut… read more

The great alibi of the 'lesser evil'

Whenever in politics, someone particularly honest (Who more often than not happens to also be marxist) proclaims a coherent position, for example, against both nations in a war, someone inevitably shows up to say one of three things: 1. That such a person is 'idealist' 2. That such a person is a… read more

Be All My Sins Remembered (Fragmented Self)

Be all my sins remembered— not as echoes, but as names I answer to when I forget who I am. I am a collage of contradictions, stitched together with panic and prayer, stitched shut but split apart, half of me begging to be held, the other half baring teeth at the hands that reach too close. Don’t… read more

Fight Club (1999/ English/ Jio Hotstar)

Revisited 'Fight Club' (1999/ English/ Jio Hotstar). The film truly stands the test of time, and considering today's times, if they were to open fight clubs in India, I am sure the whole country would become one, and that would probably also help ensure some discipline and even system. The… read more

An eventual goal… becoming a feeder (not to unhealthy extremes)

Honestly… I’d really love to be a feeder, but at the same time, I’d like for my feedee to also understand that it’s also a good thing to understand what your body really needs (exercise, proper maintenance, etc.) You can still enjoy the best of both worlds of food and exercise, diet culture is… read more

A goddess of devotion and a demon lord of extremes... ✨

Life is not about happiness

It is about wholesomeness. Sadness is just as much part of it as happiness and both are extremes. Most days it will just be okay and that is fine too. The most important thing is to go to bed at night and be at peace with yourself. I think that should be a goal people should be striving for,… read more

Question Time! Do you feel jealousy is a trait that is negative or positive? Why? Tougher questions: Do you think YOU are a jealous person? Whether you are or not, how has it impacted your past relationships?

This may feel personal for some of you, so feel free to answer as little or much, as comfortable. For example, I know of people who weren't jealous at all and ended up being cheated on, due to being overly lenient and trusting. On the other hand, I've also encountered people who were jealous to… read more

2023 is over!!

from soaring high for happiness and deep dives for a heartbreak plus grieving— I've experienced both extremes but I've learned a lot from this journey. To the problems I never got to talk about, to the pain I faced and made sure to wipe my own tears just to make sure I got the brightest smile… read more

What are your percentages?

For your MBTI results, what are the percentages for your results? Are you more in the middle or more in the extremes? Do you think your results describe you pretty well?

How you treat people matters

It doesn’t matter who they are, whether they they are your best friend or an ex, it doesn’t matter what they have done to you. If someone has treated you wrong or unfair, if someone has been immature or childish towards you - no matter what it is, if you respond and retaliate towards them with the… (edited) read more

Inside you there are two felines.

The two extremes of cat.

I'm a goddess of devotion and a demon lord of extremes...

Thank you Max for this awesome image!

Two extremes of one essence

What are your guy's thoughts on the middle path? It's the idea that there is a middle between two extremes. (edited)

Sometimes I on both extremes

☕ card of the day 💙

Long or short hair?

I usually go to extremes. My hair is more like the longer picture now. What do you think

A Tidal Wave of Love

In the vibrant and chaotic hub known as London—but more commonly, yet ironically, by its unofficial title of York City—there lived a singularly unique woman. To her friends, family, and even the occasional bemused bystander, she was known simply as “Dee.” Dee was a conundrum to navigate, a woman… read more

Broken Oaths

by I.M. (me) Promises made, like petals on a breeze, Fluttering away, lost in the seas. Glass heart fractured, by vows untrue, Memories haunt, of what once grew. In the silence, echoes of deceit, Lies that bind, wounds that bleed. A kaleidoscope of shattered dreams, In the debris of love's… read more

Whisper

I remember I used to download that app when I was desperate to talk to someone. It was always so stressful to me. Dozens of messages coming in at a time and varying between so many extremes. I went over to my family's house for the first time in awhile and I felt uncomfortable. I tried to dress… (edited) read more
