Two sides of INTJ

INTJ: *wanders around city in the night while dreaming about living the life they read in books, lays on sofa with candles all around and theater music on, stares at a painting for ages because it reminds then of something important*

Also INTJ: *has their life in an excel sheet, knows when dreams are too crazy and scale then down into achievable format, and wants to make sense all the time*

“The fact is that we have no way of knowing if the person who we think we are is at the core of our being. Are you a decent girl with the potential to someday become an evil monster, or are you an evil monster that thinks it’s a decent girl?“ "Wouldn’t I know which one I was?” “Good God, no. The lies we tell other people are nothing to the lies we tell ourselves.”

Favorite VERY BASIC Comprehensible Input Sources I’ve Found (all free)

These are all for Italian and Arabic (MSA + Levantine dialect) and suitable for A1! I’ve found the very early stages are the hardest to find stuff for but also when it’s the most boring to be confined to flashcards and memorizing so hopefully this helps. Also it keeps me from losing these links.

Italian:

Curioso come George (Italian Curious George, honestly a lot of kids shows can get tiring but Curious George doesn’t hit that “annoying” pitch while still being simple) (link is to one episode but you can find tons in the related vids) (also segments are themed so you can find ones that roughly correlate to a unit of vocab like weather or clothes)

Ardea Digitale Schoolbooks (schoolbooks for children that you can download as PDFs along with workbooks/worksheets)

Arabic (MSA)

Read Learn Play Arabic (cannot speak highly enough of this one it’s so good and there’s so much and idk how it isn’t talked about more)

Cartoon Network MENA (good just because the material is recognizable, obviously usefulness of vocab/level is gonna vary by show)

Arabic (Levantine Dialect)

Sesame Street! Aka Ahlan Simsim. (Some segments are more advanced than others obviously but it’s incredible for learning the sound of the dialect and is also not grating for adults imo) (free on YouTube)

Lingualism Diaries (not nearly as beginner friendly as Read Learn Play but definitely doable within a few weeks assuming you know the alphabet) (also has audio versions)

I highly recommend lingualism.com for a ton of Arabic materials in all sorts of dialects/levels but they’re mostly paid (not expensive! But not free) and this post is meant to compile free stuff.

i see so many posts interpreting nat’s ‘are you incapable of letting go of your ego for one goddamn second?’ line as a defensive dig at an undeserving tony and i just need to say something about this line (as someone who loves both nat and tony!)

if you don’t think tony’s ego is a bit contributor to cacw, you’re looking at the definition of ego too narrowly. in the strictest sense, tony’s cacw isn’t about his personal moral values about oversight - he’s not thinking about himself in terms of winning an argument or anything.

however, that in no way means his ego isn’t involved.

Well, that's a callout...

INTJ aesthetic things:

Getting a rush of adrenaline off of solving problems. Nothing beats that “eureka” moment!

Feeling profound joy upon entering a bookstore.

Walking into walls (and closed doors).

Hitting your legs on table corners.

Tripping on stairs.

I think you get it- being slightly physically inept.

Learning a small new piece of information and having everything come together like a huge mind-puzzle. Then, feeling like an absolute genius.

Finding peace in rainstorms and hot drinks.

Being so engulfed in a good book that the passage of time becomes arbitrary.

Feeling way deeper than other people will ever know.

Having arguments with yourself.

Changing paths because you saw someone you know in public.

Having a thought, and then multiple sub-thoughts, and then branching out all thoughts from there, analysing them, and coming to a bigger conclusion based on the assessment.

Either feeling like you can solve all the mysteries of the universe, or do nothing at all.

Sighing in relief upon entering [favourite subject] class.

Putting headphones in and feeling the world slowly fade away.

On the outside, looking completely normal. On the inside, questioning the existence human race and its cosmic insignificance.

Skulduggery headcanons that I love and need to share 

- Dexter giving Valkyrie piggie back rides, when Sulduggery doesn’t oblige to do it - “DExter, you undermine my auThorITY!”  - “What authority?” - Tanith and Dexter are punch line people who sit in the back and high five each other whenever they say one - Ghastly once got super drunk because of the whole Tanith situation and Skulduggery accompanied him, listened to his sorrow and afterwards drove him home and tugged him in. He’s a friend like that.  - Dexter Vex is ticklish af  - Valkyrie first sees him get tickled by Saracen and she finds it adorable especially bc Dexter is like the most flawless looking guy on the team - Skulduggery actually adores hugging and cuddling Valkyrie, but he is self conscious bc of his bones - China and Saracen are the only ones who have absolutely no doubts about Dexter’s sexuality  - Everyone else keeps wondering  - “He never tells us anything!” “Well, maybe, he doesn’t want to!” “Ghastly, that’s not the point! We’re his friends.” “What if he has a thing for… monsters.. and aliens?”  - Saracen laughing nervously in the back after he’d just spent night #120053 with Dexter  - China remembering that moment she’d realized Dexter was like the only person in existence who doesn’t crush on her in the slightest bit and sighing  - on Dexter’s and Saracen’s wedding Dexter slowdances with Tanith and she cries bc for some reason it reminds her of Ghastly and of all she was robbed of  - Skulduggery and Valkyrie watching crappy TV and Skulduggery tugging her in afterwards when she fell asleep  - Ghastly gives the best hugs and Valkyrie keeps stealing them, especially when a mission took an extra toll on her  - “Val, I’m a very respectful member of the Elders…” “I respect and cuddle you!”  - He can’t help loving it even tho he keeps making a show of how big of an exception this is it’s not  - Dexter gets tired when drunk, Ghastly gets mad, Saracen gets funny and Valkyrie causes riots - we don’t talk about tanith, she rarely drinks for good reasons  - Saracen is basically Valkyrie’s mom when Melissa isn’t around  - “have you had any breakfast yet?” “are you alright?” “should we call a doctor?” “write me a message when you got home safely.” skulduggery: “I’m literally driving her to the front door!!!” Saracen: “I’m painfully aware!!”  - tanith and saracen have this amazing vibe that only people who used to have a thing going on but mutually decided it doesn’t work out have: they wear sunglasses and judge others and it only takes one meaningful look for them to communicate  - it drives Dexter crazy  - “What are you guys telling each other???”
