    Default Personal Philosophies

    What are some views you have on general things, such as life, how you view work. ect.

    One of my personal ideals is that I should always try to be optimistic about things, and try to view the positive in everything. This was primarily influenced by Viktor E. Frankl's book, "Man's Search for Meaning."

    We are never complete. We can never be perfect. We are never finished. I believe that as humans we should always be willing to grow. I don't just want to admit my flaws I want to work on them. I want to find new ways to improve myself. I want to be the best me and then do it again.

    For example, I didn't know pink tax was a thing. For those who don't know, it's a tax on only woman's products, at least in America. So now I'm trying to learn more about woman rights. Alternatively, I used to believe that because I wasn't racist I was part of the solution. Which is not so true. So I'm also trying to be better there. I've been trying to make more diverse characters, as a start. I seen on Twitter, which I'm still pretty new at, that so many people were happy about a Latino star in a movie not about being Latino. I did not realize the world was like this. That sexism and racism were such an active part of our society. That it was harder for woman to get published. So I definitely want to learn and grow from knowing that. To be more then just on the sidelines and letting it happen.

    Saying that, I am autistic. I am going to have a harder time figuring it out. I'm high functioning but a lot of things (such as what I said above) is all new to me. I have lived a sheltered life in my own little world. I don't get a choice in what I am or the philosophies that were pushed down on me, but I do get a choice in who I am moving forward.

    So basically, my personal philosophy is to always try to be better.

    I have a great number of personal philosophies, because life is too complex and full of too many people willing to lie and fuck you over to make themselves look better to have just one. Feminists, Zealots, Politicians, virtue signalling fuckwads more willing to convert the weak minded to their idiotic cause and win by sheer numbers than actually trying to make the world better and more equal. All their ideologies are just intolerance and hate painted up pretty colors.


    The world is full of stupid, led by the stupid, and the media feeds the stupid.

    Never trust social media, always fact check.

    There is no such thing as reverse racism or reverse sexism. There is only racism and sexism and anyone absolutely anyone can fall victim of it. And for someone to claim they have it worse for arbitrary reasons is akin to them crying like a little kid who is told they can't have the newest toy.

    There are a great many more, but we'll sop before it gets too far.

    Taking time to enjoy things in life because before you know it, time has messed and you'll have missed out on those opportunities and memories.

    Keep your hopes high, but your expectations reasonable.

    Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line.

    Never fight a land war in Asia, unless you're China or Russia.
