#aspe(ttalk 4/12: void the more and more i learn of void, the more and more ridi(ulous “void is nothingness” seems. it (ertainl7 does skew m7 anal7sis some that this is the loudest fu(king void land i’ve ever been on, but i think it’s tr7ing to tell me - and get me to tell 7ou - something. not that void doesn’t have nothingness on it, but it’s a shell. a surfa(e level evo(ation. void is nothingness in the same wa7 that breath is wind, 7ou know? void is… well. ever7thing, 7ou know? ever7thing outside a small (ir(le of “importan(e”. and the more 7ou spend in the darkness, the more blinding and pointle...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 3/12: doom i owe ever7 doom pla7er an apolog7. this su(ks. this su(ks so goddamn mu(h. ever7 thought is leaden with hopelessness. m7 bod7 feels so heav7. i’m so tired. i thought life pla7ers were the mightiest. and the7 are, ph7si(all7, what with life being the aspe(t of health and power and strength. but doom pla7ers have the opposite of that. their aspe(t is a fu(king albatross around their ne(ks. and still the7 (ontinue. still the7 thrive, even! the7’re the strongest of us all. and now i have to be that, too. one step at a time. one da7 at a time. i’ve (ome this far. 7ou’ve (ome this...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 2/12 - blood when i talked about blood before, i talked about the bonds between individuals. whi(h is (orre(t, of (ourse, good on me for re(ognizing the bonds between two people who hate ea(h other too, and also the most prominent bonds 7ou’ll see while in the in(ipisphere. but i was thinking too limited. when 7ou get a (riti(al mass of these individual bonds, do 7ou know what 7ou have? a (ommunit7. blood is the mortar that binds the bri(ks that make up (ivilization. the relationships and obligations 7ou have to 7our fellow members of so(iet7 land squarel7 in blood’s domain. the goo...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 1/12 - rage 7eah, bet 7ou didn’t think i’d be (oming ba(k to these again, huh. neither did i. but i’m not approa(hing this from an outsider, this time. now i’m a rage pla7er, whi(h means i’ve got insights i didn’t before. rage is a real thumbta(k in m7 shoe of an aspe(t, i swear. it feels like it’s dragging me down ever7 time i think. what (ould be? what should be? what might be? no, idiot. here and now. stop thinking about bullshit. like a slap in the fa(e. but i’ve been (onsidering it, too. and 7ou know what else isn’t part of the here and now? 7ou know what else is a fantas7 witho...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 12/12 - heart there’s not a set order to how the aspe(ts are laid out, reall7. it kind of differs. but i think most people would agree that starting with rage was kind of out there. but i had to! be(ause this wa7 we end here. m7 favorite. m7 aspe(t. heart. heart is 7ou. not what 7ou do, not aspe(ts of realit7, not what 7ou see or think or break or (reate. it’s who 7ou are. the fundamental beating soul at the (ore of 7our being. the feeling 7ou feel before 7our mind (uts in to rationalize it awa7. the instin(t 7ou feel at the sight of some primal trigger. ever7thing 7ou do is an outer la7...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 11/12 - spa(e the five aspe(ts of destru(tion, ending with time, pure destru(tion. and now we have the five aspe(ts of (reation, ending with spa(e. do i need to explain things, at this point? i think those of 7ou who have read all m7 anal7ses (an fill in the blanks for an overview of spa(e. still, for those of 7ou heathens who haven’t, and just to be sure, let’s go over it. spa(e is about, well, spa(e. not outer spa(e stars and stuff (although that theme does show up from time to time), but about ph7si(al spa(e. length, width, height. dimensional, proportional, gravitational, mass. the t...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 10/12 - light light’s kind of a misunderstood aspe(t, i think. a bit ironi(all7, (onsidering failing to be understood is the providen(e of its (ounterpart, void. ma7be 7ou (an sa7 something like people have stared too hard into the light and got blinded or something. an7wa7s, as void deals with ignoran(e, people think light is information. and it kinda is, in some wa7s. light pla7ers alwa7s seem to know something relevant. lu(k, too (omes up a lot. light pla7ers often get lu(k7 in spe(ta(ular wa7s. but both of those are just manifestations of light, not the inner truth. s7mptoms, not the di...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 9/12 - life life stands opposite doom. and sin(e doom is a huge drag (sorr7, kris), it stands to reason that life’s a real fun time. doom is all that gets 7ou down in life, the obsta(les in 7our wa7. so what’s the opposite of all of that? wh7, it’s the power to smash through them all like a reall7 bad hurdle runner. vitalit7, strength, power, energ7, all that good stuff. and, 7eah, obviousl7 one wa7 it manifests is in ph7si(alit7. an unhealth7 life pla7er is almost an ox7moron, and the7 frequentl7 go be7ond normal athleti( (apabilities and into the supernatural. 7ou (annot outmus(le or outl...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 8/12 - breath frankl7, if i wasn’t heart, i (an’t imagine an7 other aspe(t i’d be other than breath. breath is paired with blood. as 7ou all remember, blood is all about (onne(tions, restri(ting and an(horing. so, it shouldn’t be a surprise to find out that breath is about none of those things. breath doesn’t need 7our labels, man. breath doesn’t need an7thing holding it ba(k. breath is freedom! breath is dire(tion, uninhampered! breath is as free as the wind, bab7! it’s prett7 understandable that the aspe(t of freedom and movement often involves fl7ing, where the onl7 thing that (an stop 7...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 7/12 - hope we’ve (rossed the halfwa7 mark, and that means we (ome to a fa(t about the aspe(ts - ever7 one is part of a pair. hope and rage, breath and blood, life and doom, light and void, spa(e and time, and heart and mind. it’ll be easier to explain the se(ond half, be(ause we have the first half to (ompare and (ontrast to. our first aspe(t in the se(ond half is hope. for best results, please read while listening to this: https://www.7outube.(om/wat(h?v=wbo3p7_mf30 rage deals with the ugl7 truth. therefore, it should (ome to no surprise that hope deals with the beautiful lie. hope...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 6/12 - mind we leave the destru(tive aspe(ts behind, now, but before we hit the (reative, we’ve got one of the in-betweens here. when someone is a hero of mind, 7ou get (ertain ideas in 7our head. intelle(t. logi(. (hoosing the right paths through reason and dedu(tion. and 7ou’d be right, to some degree. mind is all about seeing those paths that go this wa7 or that, finding out whi(h leads to whi(h, weighing the pros and (ons. the mind of a mind pla7er is like a super(omputer simulating man7 out(omes, seeing the results of all the out(omes. the (hoosing is more important than the smartn...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 5/12 - time ti(k. to(k. ti(k. to(k. ti(k wait shit i sound like that do( s(rat(h bit aborted. time is refreshing among aspe(ts be(ause it's prett7 obvious what it is. it's time. se(onds into minutes into hours into da7s into wipes into perigees into sweeps into eons. ever forward, never (hanging, the great leveler. heals all wounds, humbles all emperors, limited for ever7one. time flies like an arrow. fruit flies like a banana. i mean. do i reall7 need to explain this? it’s time! 7ou know about time! it should (ome to no surprise what time pla7ers (an do. fast forward, pause, even rever...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 4/12 - void “understanding void” is an ox7moron, to be honest. an7thing mu(h deeper than surfa(e level anal7sis is like tr7ing to for(e two magnets of the same polarit7 towards ea(h other. ma7be a(tual void pla7ers understand it. the void pla7er in m7 session tried to get deep into it and it was a lot of nonsense that made m7 head hurt. still, it’s next on the list, it’s part of realit7, so might as well give it a shot. the void is the unknown. the mispla(ed, the forgotten, the se(ret, the things that aren’t 7et, the things that were but now aren’t. the dark matter and energ7 of paradox ...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 3/12 - doom shout out to kris for giving me a blessing that helped me get m7 stud7ing done faster. i’m not tagging him in this be(ause he’s lord of doom and he doesn’t need to see m7 basi( ass anal7sis i’ve talked before about how sometimes the names of aspe(ts don’t alwa7s tell 7ou what the7’re like, and doom is an example of that. despite being (alled doom, it’s a(tuall7 one of the most (omforting, uplifting ahahaha no i’m just fu(king with 7ou it’s absolutel7 fu(king miserable. doom is the aspe(t of all of life’s (hallenges and hurdles. laws. fate. hard times. bad lu(k. suffering...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 2/12 - blood there’s a number of sa7ing about blood. in the blood. blood brothers. bad blood. blood is thi(ker than water. what these shamelessl7 (herr7 pi(ked sa7ings all have in (ommon is that the7 relate to 7ou and other people. and, similarl7, the aspe(t blood is about 7our relationships with others. some of 7ou immediatel7 thought about 7our partners, didn’t 7ou, reading that? the rush of affe(tion 7ou have for them. well, stop it. those feelings aren’t part of blood b7 itself. feelings fall under the domain of heart (whi(h is gonna be the last one, in (ase an7one was wondering about ...Read more
#aspe(ttalk 1/12 - rage aspe(ts aren't alwa7s eas7 to understand from their name alone. on one end, 7ou have time, whi(h is (ompletel7 understandable from the word go. primar7 meaning, se(ondar7 meaning, manifestations, all make sense as soon as 7ou hear it. rage is on the opposite end of the spe(trum, being the most esoteri( of the twelve. this is ironi(, be(ause it's the aspe(t of truth. no possibilities, no extrapolations, no namb7 pamb7 woulda (oulda shouldas - realit7 at its purest form, warts and all. it's an ugl7 world, when 7ou pull the world from 7our e7es and look at fa(ts and fa(ts alone...Read more
