  1. So picky that I check, research, and inspect every single ingredient on EVERY... SINGLE... ITEM... I... BUY. Either Kosher or Halal. Why? Cause I don't want no Beaver Anus Juice (Castoreum) disguised as Natural Flavors on my drinks. As for Kosher and Halal, that's self-explanatory. No pig for me. Meat may be meat, but I have a standard to abide by.

    But hey, no hard feelings for any of you who's into this. You know what they say, "I don't eat/drink what you eat/drink, but it doesn't stop you from having what you enjoy eating/drinking all to yourselves. Hence, the more you have what you love to eat/drink the merrier".

  2. I have an important message to deliver to those who follow me (for some odd reason) and those who once did but don't follow me (for some odd reason).

    The contents of this message is under the spoilers section. This message is of dire importance so much so that saying it out loud would destroy the very fabric of time and space if you pronounced it correctly,

    SauaƧ Plz

    Why am I sharing this to you all? IDK. Cause I say something random.

  3. If I confirmed myself of the harsh reality that I’m truly on the state of being dead on top of my family members confirming the fact that I am dead, then I’d be happy being buried where the soil, vegetation, maggots and worms would feast upon my body till I’m nothing but a pile of bones. At least it’s natural and who knows maybe a Tree containing Fruit (Apple? Orange?) might sprout out of my burial ground from all the soil/plants nourishing all over my body.

    Cremation is unnatural IMHO. Why burn my decomposing body into smoke and ash when I can give my decomposing body for Earth to nourish all over it? My ash and smoke might pollute the Earth’s atmosphere.

  4. Ok apparently after further research, turns out I was a bit off with how I described the interpretations of Abrahamic Religions being incorporated in the Shin Megami Tensei Universe as Judaism was primarily more the main focus with the portrayal of The God of Abraham YHVH going all Old Testament on the World while Christian and Islamic references are there just for symbolism and not the main focus. If I came across a bit disrespectful, it's not my fault that the games like to conjoin Pagan Religious themes with Abrahamic Ones e.g. Norse God Thor being a follower of The God of Abraham in SMT1 LOL which is why I find the polytheism notion nonsensical.

    As with the whole Satan and Lucifer (AKA Iblis) being considered separate entities, if you prescribe yourself to believe on that interpretation then my statement is as follows,

    Spoiler

    I Refuse to Believe in that since they are the same entity though I do understand the metaphorical explanation behind the matter of Satan as a term. If Islamic interpretation were to take into consideration, Angels are NOT Demons, Demons are considered their own supernatural class of beings (AKA Jinns in Islam) instead of a title rank for "Fallen Creature". Furthermore, Lucifer (Iblis) was the Jinn that rebelled against God to prove himself that he's better than Man. Hence why Lucifer (Iblis) asked God to give him the longest (almost eternal) respite to see if he and his followers can misguide ALL of Humanity away from worshiping Him. Hence why he and his followers are known forth from that day as Satan. From a theological perspective at face value, it's not wonder under Judeo-Christian perspective why Islam's interpretation is considered a black sheep.

    Seems like Lucifer and his followers (consisting of Jinns, Humans, and other creatures) are doing a decent job misguiding Humanity, but most Human Beings don't care anyway. Some just don't even care about the concept of The Hereafter and wish to simply live their lives to their fullest at peace in this World only.

    Death for a Worldly Man is simple: I live, I die, I'm bones & dust, Death in this world is Eternal, and I don't care if I exist hereafter Death.

    Death for The Abrahamic Man: I live to please God, I die to please God, I'm bones & dust, Death in this World is Temporary, and I shall exist hereafter Death.

     

    All in all, 10/10 RPG series. Would edge again. Within the Shin Megami Tensei Universe Law Path is corrupt thanks to Judaism going back at its Henotheistic roots at its early days and supporting that through Christianity and Islam on Modern Humanity  while Chaos Path is going all Darwinian Satanism. Stick to Neutral Path. Even though you kill everybody on Neutral Path like Shadow the Hedgehog cuz OW THE EDGE LOL. At least you become Buddha's contact and become Enlightened endgame to preserve Humanity (By Killing Most of Everyone? LOL) given that the main character in SMT1 is canonically named Futsuo (AKA Contact of Buddha).

  5. Basically, I'm currently playing the first Shin Megami Tensei game released on the Super Nintendo (SNES) or Super Famicom on an English Translation by Aeon Genesis since the game wasn't released outside of Japan. There was an iPhone version, but I'm not sure if that's available currently. So far, I'm finding the game fun with the whole Law vs Neutral vs Chaos dynamic going throughout the game.

    Anyway, The Shin Megami Tensei series is kindoff an important RPG just as much Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. This game along with The Persona series are interrelated though they don't necessarily share the same in-game universe. The game mechanics revolve around summoning Demons (AKA Jinns) to do your bidding, and fusing them to make even stronger demons some of whom are worshiped as dieties in Pagan Religions. Apparently Angels are considered Demons (Jinns) in this game universe LOL since you can summon them to do your bidding. Then I guess Humans should be too since its fair game. YOU ARE A DEMON. HE IS A DEMON. SHE IS A DEMON. ALL GODS IN ALL RELIGIONS ARE DEMONS.

    I must stress that I do find the interpretation and perspective of Real-Life Religions being incorporated into the Shin Megami Universe as a means to make the whole story of a post-apocalyptic Japan going through Judgement Day phases where Humans and Demonkind (AKA Jinn Kind) are either cooperating or battling each other as EPIC and EDGY kinda silly/nonsensical/bullshit/superfluous. Why would YHVH (AKA YHWH or The God of Abraham) in this game universe be portrayed as a Genocidal Heartless God that is in good relationships with Satan? Why are Satan and Lucifer (AKA Iblis) being portrayed as different entities when they are the same entity? Guess the game designers have a hate boner for the Abrahamic Religions. I'm sure it's just an edgy phase. They'll grow out of it eventually. That or be even more apathetic. Occultism is the rule of thumb within the Shin Megami Tensei Universe, but I find their interpretation of the Abrahamic Religions disturbing, misguided, and incorporating a sense of polytheism. Therefore, I ain't looking forward fighting YHVH in the second entry of the series no matter what path you choose (I should be ceased to exist the moment I dare to fight Him through His Will and All-Might). Who knows maybe they did this just to invite the fantasy of WHAT IF YHVH was an Evil Genocidal Tyrant God that pretty much wishes to damn Humanity to extinction and not be given any more respite given their cooperation with the Demon Kind (Jinn Kind) to unleash unspeakable Chaos across the World. Most of the Human Race not only disbelieve in YHVH, they blatantly or subtly mock Him in every single solitary way so is it really that much of a stretch that He gave them respite in hopes of wanting what was best for them by worshiping Him, yet they remain defiant and blind to the bitter end. Sounds more like Human Beings and the Demon-kind (Jinn Kind) are one and the same in this game universe with similar goals. If He was and if the creators of this franchise were to take into consideration of the interpretation that The God of Abraham is All-Powerful, the Shin Megami Tensei Universe would simply cease to exist. However, the game would be over the moment we started LOL. All other gods within the pagan religions are portrayed as demons (jinns) that Humans worship them as deities anyway, so they have their limits. But, YHVH? He's not just a god nor is he a demon (jinn). He is The God.

    As for other Real-Life Religions, it seems Buddhism is favored more since the Neutral Path wishes a more Balanced perspective between the extremes of both Law and Chaos, but you still kill them all (including YHVH and Satan) anyway for preserving the Life of Humanity and be self-enlightened.

    Even though the world, along with the characters we play as in the Shin Megami Universe should cease to exist when fighting YHVH, but hey its a video game. Suspension of Disbelief FTW or in this case Continuation of Disbelief FTW cuz it's EDGY and RADICAL MAAAN.

    Yay? Basically, I'm a bit pissed that going Law isn't satisfying, while going Chaos and Neutral are there for shock value and edginess. I smell bias. That or bullshit.

  6. Seton Academy AKA Murenase! Seton Gakuen

     

     

    Basically Furry School: The Anime. Humans imitating as animals. Animals being sentient on the same level as Humans. Majority of Female Animals looking like Furry Cosplays imitating like real Animals. Jokes and conflicts about Inter-species Romance between different species of animals including Humans. Inconsistent perspective.

    This anime is insanity. Hilarious though nonetheless.

  7. Oh I have a "bright side" indeed, but if I were to tell you upfront, Big Brother would not hesitate to find and kill me on top of my family. And my "bright side" would violate NSFW rules in theory. Let's just say, I'm praying to The Abrahamic God about this "bright side" of mine from such a terrible situation.

  8. Nothing to grieve over on my end. Don’t think I have a bright future ahead of me but who knows. Maybe it’s not as I think so. Me, my mother, my father are at risk. It’s only a matter of time when we contract it. So what the hey, I have the elusive seed known as “The Black Seed” AKA Nigella Sativa from which it along with it’s oils are known to potentially cure all kinds of illnesses/viruses/diseases regardless (natural or man-made).

    https://www.greenmedinfo.com/blog/black-seed-remedy-everything-death

    Might as well press my luck making Black Seed Tea out of this if me or any of my family members contract it. Only one way to find out.

  9. I’m more concerned about not just the treatment of COVID-19, but the origin story of COVID-19 from which further questioning will inevitably lead to conspiracies.

    If there was a Meat Market at Wuhan and there also happens to be a Bio Lab specializing in handling/researching/making diseases or viruses as well, Then who’s to say how the virus spread exactly? Did it really came from some Wuhan Chad eating Bat Soup to please his mates? Or did it came from the Bio Lab at Wuhan which would lead to the conclusion that the virus is intended as a Bio Weapon?

    One thing is for certain. The Chinese Government would violate all kinds of inalienable Human Rights against Humanity as a whole covering up the whole mess at Wuhan by either pinning it on the Uighur Muslims locked in concentration camps, silencing critics of China, and doing their best to “control” the internet’s information about the virus through dubious means e.g. banning, hacking, sub bots etc.

    It’s OK everyone. Winnie the Xi only means well.

  10. How to be friends with everybody,

    1. Don’t be yourself. EVER. Be a Hypocrite. Lie. Cheat. Manipulate. And Benefit.

    2. Don’t talk about anything that’s deemed personal be it mental issues, race, opinion, BUT ESPECIALLY Politics and Religion. Talk about Shallow, Irrelevant and Inconsequential things.

    3. You don’t. Friendship is Tragically Dead at this day and age for a lot of people. Even worse, a forbidden way to live Life to your Fullest for some people that only the rebellious edgy teens out there would strive for.

     

    Looks like I’m failing at all 3. Must be doing something right.

  11. I have an ambivalent relationship with the series. A love-hate thing. I can respect this SRPG franchise being the grandaddy of the genre console-wise, but the inventory management system in most Fire Emblem games has always been frustrating. Screw the legendary weapons in most FE games (especially the GBA games 6-8) when your basic and killer weapons are good enough to last you through the whole game.

     

    Anyway,

    Favorite Game = FE Gaiden [Black Sheep]

    Favorite Lord = Roy [Mah Boi] (FE6)

    Favorite Non-Lord Character = Celica (FE: Gaiden)

    Favorite Villain = Nergal (FE7)

    Favorite Class = Dread Fighter (FE Gaiden)

  12. There’s no such thing as beta, alpha, omega, or zeta males. Vice versa for females as well.

    Dr. L. David Mech was the man responsible for coining these terminologies when researching about wolves and how they as a pack rise from the top. For all you insecure men and women out there get wrecked.

     

     

    If we’re still going to roll with the idea then I might as well be a Zeta Male. Cause screw being full on alpha, beta, or omega. I can be any of the 3 whenever I feel like it.

  13. Self Explanatory Topic really.

    Regret is such an uncomfortable feeling that spirals me to the point of insanity and crippling depression. There are many things in Life I have done that I regret (even in MLP Forums and other online forums in general as I hate to admit), but as long as I meditate and understand what I did wrong, accept criticism (be they nice or harsh) and own up to my failures for the pursuit of achieving success in that which I’ve regretted. To me Regret is a negative emotion that’ll destroy you if you don’t do something about it.

    Shame on the other hand is something I’ve become complacent with. It helped me since childhood and continues to do so. I think Shame builds character and shows a sense of care/sensitivity you have for anything. It’s a feeling to remind you that you have your mental and psychological limits and trying to overdo your limits can be disastrous for your health/survivability. Having no shame or being entirely shameless in everything you do in Life is a Life not worth living IMHO. So to me, Shame is an emotion we Humans deep down don’t want to feel because it’s uncomfortable just as much as Regret, but an emotion we need to survive.

    What do you all think? No need to be too personal. Just wondering if any of you feel ashamed or regret throughout your Life?

  14. Yeah, this might be even worse than Article 13. FTC’s COPPA Law is written too vague for any sane person to even consider following it. The law made sense back when the internet was at its infancy with all the 80s and 90s commercial. The internet changed everything from which the creators of FTC’s COPPA Law didn’t even consider making the necessary revisions. Pretty Lazy for the government to overlook at.

    Well if you live in America you can report this matter to the FTC’s website about the COPPA Law to not destroy YouTube and most internet media in general. So I might as well give it a shot and make a reasonable comment about the matter.

    https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2019/07/25/2019-15754/request-for-public-comment-on-the-federal-trade-commissions-implementation-of-the-childrens-online

    I understand the intention. It is for the greater good. Collecting data on people under 13 is bad for advertising. But, further revisions need to be made in order for FTC’s COPPA Law to work properly for 2020.
