I didn't say emotions were a weakness. They're actually a defense mechanism. You kinda describe it like a production line run by robots that you totally can't stop. Just let them make their products.

Not needing to eat would definitely be a huge strength.

Having a pawn attack a square near your king is a weakness. Being an air hockey player should mean that doesn't matter.

Crying IS the mental breakdown. It's what you do when you need someone else's help because you can't do it yourself(weakness).

The problem here is that people prey on you when they see that weakness, and a civilized society should not do this. The problem here is that we're developing all of the tools for a civilized society and putting them into the hands of predators. A weakness is only a problem when it's being exploited. This is why I oppose usage of things that give our predatory "leaders" leverage against us that we can't escape. Surveillance bad. Censorship bad. Detention bad.

I don't know hope you're coming to any of your conclusions. What do you think the word weakness means? Also coping.

Anything I do because I have to rather than because I want to is a weakness. A need is a weakness. It's a vector of attack that I've gotta defend. Crying isn't something I want to do, but is compulsive.

Views do gotta change, but it's not like crying isn't showing a weakness. It is showing weakness. The problem is life is a competitive environment where you're not allowed to compete in any way other than financially where you're at the same disadvantage as a gambler in a casino.

One time I was in these girls' dorm after a party and one of them was really focusing on her homework and jamming to some nice tunes. It was such a good vibe that I was apparently just kinda staring at her for like 15 minutes and she thought it was creepy. Now lofi girl is a thing, but it's not quite as good as the real thing.

Not only do I feel like it's a terrible idea to show that weakness, but if I actually do it everyone around me will reinforce why I shouldn't.

Hey everyone! I'm an adult too! You can refer to me as 'his lordliness' and I expect to be treated as such.

I'll help them after they go back in time to give me a childhood.

 

No matter what I do, it's like Gboard is specifically avoiding it. It'll instantly learn any bullshit word I make up like "aprifnid" but can't type "Lemmy". I suspect shenanigans.

 

Like what if I'm in space?
