I prefer Kyary.
Whew are you?whew is Dorothy
I prefer Kyary.
Going well, familial relations have never been better, depression is lightening, my sleep has improved, my focus for projects is returning, and finally getting started with all these doctors and the like.
Also, definitely keep us apprised of your psychonautics or the like! I can't be the only one who'd be mightily interested.
I won't begrudge you the failed telepathy, it took family and friends many years to realize it. Even then, it was their realization long before it was mine. Funny how those things can turn out.Oh that's good to hear! I didn't know you were depressed, but I think our temperaments are pretty similar so perhaps I should have
JeFfRey is rolling in his grave.Maaaan, Kashiyuka too. Definitely. And Sayumi Michishige:
I am falling in love~Maaaan, Kashiyuka too. Definitely. And Sayumi Michishige:
glad 2 be bi-gaf right now tbqh
Uhhhh what's wrong with a guy in underwear? There are worse posted in any tomb raider thread with her VO in panties with her ass hanging out....
*bi-gaf secret handshake*
I am well! I ordered a neurofeedback machine today and I'm procrastinating on studying for a mid-term. How are things with you?
This thread is evidently a grower.

Omg I LOVE Kyary!

Yeah, that definitely agrees with my experience. Dragging onself from milepost to milepost, one just begins to assume that this is normality, or that normality is to be found at the next.I think it makes sense in a way. When something is a really persistent quality in your experience it kind of becomes invisible. I think it's like when someone compliments something you do and you're kind of like "oh whatever, it's no big deal", because you just take it for granted.
WTF is a neurofeedback machine? o__0 sound like some Matrix level shit.
Neurofeedback is like this weird discipline that I'm not completely sold on yet, but if it does what it should it should probably make my meditation practice easier, and I'm all for things being easier.
It's basically biofeedback (if you know what that is) but the biological data is supposed to be particularly relevant to brain activity. The most common is EEG neurofeedback, but there's also others like nIR HEG biofeedback (near-infrared hemoencephalography, which is what the device that I ordered does). The principle of biofeedback in general is basically that if you get additional information on certain systems you have an increased ability to regulate them or exercise control over them. With EEG biofeedback that's stuff like brainwave frequencies (suppressing or promoting changes in amplitude, synchrony between two or more sites, etc). It's all pretty complicated. Hemoencephalography is supposed to be a measure of brain blood flow similar to fMRI, but it uses optical sensors so it's a bit more limited, usually to the forehead regions because there is no hair to obstruct the signal. The forehead regions are usually associated with executive attention/control though and that's what it's supposed to be really good for. The idea is that we volitionally increase blood flow to certain areas of the brain in response to cognitive load, one of the measures of this signal penalizes drops in this measure below a set threshold, so it's basically 'sustained attention training'.
Sounds like something I'd get a kick out of dabbling with myself, though money is obviously an invariant obstacle as study of the brain goes. One day I'll have my sensory deprivation tank, one day!Neurofeedback is like this weird discipline that I'm not completely sold on yet, but if it does what it should it should probably make my meditation practice easier, and I'm all for things being easier.

Whatchu mean by that gurl? Don't you dare compare this lovely community to a nasty small penus. Ack.
Yay! New Thread!
I need to post in here more often. My adventures have been crazy lately.
I observed it being all quaint and small, come back later and see this massive behemoth before me.

Oh my god
Well, good luck with...that. I hope it doesn't catch your hair on fire.

ain't nothing wrong with growers
It's like concealing your power level

Washu avatar? I approve. I need to get the collection on BD <3 I need to rewatch the OVAs sometime, too.*gives the biggest hug in human history to everyone*
Well, howdy.

This might be a stupid question, but who is "Dorothy" and why are we her friends?
So tell me gaygaf (not sure if that should be one word or two), has anyone dabbled in tabletop rpgs?
I am going to be playing pathfinder over IRC with some friends but I have never actually played before.
*bi-gaf secret handshake*
Ain't nothing wrong with naked mole rats neither. 'Sides the fact that they're gross and small and unpleasant to look at.
