Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

I know it's been ages since I wrote anything or posted anything on here. I just felt disconnected from the community and needed time to grow and become more confident in myself. During this time, I have gone on many adventures, found new friends, and became a Buddhist. Please feel free to ask me questions. If you want to follow the latest things that have been going on with me, please feel free to go to my new blog: [link]

That's really interesting to hear

. What made you decide to become Buddhist?

I'll follow your blog (but heads up I'm more of a lurker than a blogger lol). Hope things are well for ya!

I was going through a bit of a rough patch in my life while attempting to find a job. Probably got a little depressed and was seeing a psychiatrist. So I searched around for something to give my life meaning. I was intrigued by the correspondences between what modern psychologists had to say about the connection between your mental well-being and your emotional well-being and what the Buddha said about those same things 2500 years earlier. Basically, your thoughts influence your emotions, so in order to improve your emotional state, one must understand the logical fallacies and assumptions your negative thoughts are based on and transform them into positive thoughts. This advice has definitely helped me out in both a practical and spiritual way. It admittedly also helps that the temple I usually go to serves free Chinese vegetarian food on Sundays, and that that food is really delicious.

As for how I'm doing, let's just say that I recently got a copy of Persona 4 and am pretty addicted to it at the moment. Haven't gotten very far yet, but I can already tell it's going to be awesome...

*JDWasabi Oct 11, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Wow. I'm glad that you've found comfort there! I visited a temple while I was away on holiday too, the atmosphere there was magical (albeit crawling with tourists) but the thought of being in solitude and away from things sounds amazing!

OMG. P4~~~~~ AOPSJDGJLAGJL;. Where are you up to?! The Persona series is definitely one of my fave RPG series. It blew my mind when I first played it! There's a P4 fighting game coming out and a semi remake for the PS Vita. Have you played the 3rd game? EEEE! Another P4 fan

DDD

~kajigoddess Oct 11, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Man, have I been waiting for you to ask that question about Persona 4! I recently rescued Rise and just aced the final term exams, still waiting for more evidence to come in. Spoiler ahead for others who may be reading this post: I couldn't believe that King Moron died! Can't help but wonder if he was an accomplice of the real murderer, but don't spoil me on that! Also, (if you couldn't already tell from my new icon) I absolutely love Chie because she kicks serious ass. <333 Love the blend of surreality and awkward adolescent tensions. Also love how the game is all about managing one's time properly. Though I will admit, I have been spending a little too much time playing this game. -__- Perhaps you will see some fanart from me soon, perhaps not. Yes, this game has blown my mind in so many ways and it is my introduction to the Persona series. Would really love to get my hands on the third game sometime, but not until after I see what kind of ending I get from this game! (hopefully involving dates with Chie or Ayane Matsunaga) Actually sold back my DS and its games to get this game, leaving me without a portable game system. But it is totally worth it.

And about the temple: It's sort of small, in a nondescript tan building in a hip part of town. It's also filled with Chinese-speaking people (Although I have made some English-speaking friends), and I am actually starting to learn Chinese because I'm around them every Sunday. Probably not as impressive of a place as you visited, but certainly comfortable.

*JDWasabi Nov 1, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

-shot for late uber late reply-

Erm...WHERE ARE YOU UP TO NOW?! XD

I figured I'd just ask you that since like... a month has passed since my last reply -_-. I'm so sorry about that! *shakes fist at projects*.

That sounds awesome! You can teach me Chinese 8D (I'm a failed Asian). I'm certain that being in an environment in which you find solace is more important than impressiveness at the end of the day! \o/.

Glad to hear that you're well

~kajigoddess Nov 1, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Let's see, I have to save Inaba by the end of the year or else it'll be swallowed up by creepy fog...

Not sure how close to the true ending I'm getting to (got the bad ending a couple of times), but I hope it comes soon after all these crazy plot twists!

Eh, I'm not as enthusiastic about the class as I used to be because the teacher keeps going off on tangents and I've listened to lame children's songs one too many times. :/ At least I know a few words and phrases.

*JDWasabi Nov 3, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Wow ok, you're nearly there then! Keep me updated 8D *feels the P4 love*

Ah yeh that's fair enough! Are you studying traditional or simplified Chinese?

~kajigoddess Nov 3, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Don't worry, I'll keep you updated.

Just working my way through that apocalyptic dungeon. For some reason the girls have better armor than the guys. >_<

It's simplified, but the class is focused on speaking the language, not writing it.
