Hi :)

I change things up, but that's because I like almost everything lol I get bored with one thing, and I move on to the next, but I always come back to the first thing eventually -- if I had the ability, I would do it all at once, but that's not really an option

149 -- I've taken a lot of IQ tests online, though, so that might have given me a slight advantage

That's if you go strictly by that definition. As far as a hierarchy goes, a totally self-serving leader would not be able to properly support the group that it is leading -- probably why fascism isn't very popular anymore

Mm, not exactly. A king will still be aiming to serve his people -- he will just be proactive about it through his larger plans and actions

I'm alpha or lone wolf. I'm good with a lot of groups of people, but I don't entangle myself enough to be a legitimate part of the group, at least until I really get to know and like the dynamic. When I do, I don't like to be walked on. I like things to be efficient. I feel it's most...

I get along well with most types, but I find ESxJs tend to be the most foreign to me. I actually get along really well with most SP types, especially if they're cheerful. I like lively, cheerful people. I get into arguments with NTs a lot, but I don't consider that a bad thing. It's kind of...

After greater industrialization, there was some regulation needed in order to protect the rights and livelihood of workers -- but then, of course, that step was taken advantage of, and now regulations often work in the favor of the corporation, which is depressing. All things in moderation...

They are doing that because they understand that they don't actually have power above the average consumer. For instance, if we do become serious about sustainability (which is become more and more of a possibility), then oil companies, which are absolutely huge, would fail. They are...

You're talking about CEOs, pseudoconservatives, and all that as if they are a solid front at war with the common people. They're not a single clump group trying to destroy everyone under them. While I am not pleased with their position either, before you target them, ask yourself: where do...

First off, most economic systems aren't "invented." It's a natural occurrence that a good or service has to be returned with another good or service. More modern theories, such as communism, were drawn out before they were put into practice...which is probably why they didn't work. Fact is...

I believe in selfless love -- to a degree. First off, great loves don't always make great relationships. The most passionate and heart-pounding types of love can create a very rocky and tumultuous dynamic. This is not what I idealize. I don't want to be a Juliet. I don't want to sacrifice for...

I was born to systematically destroy and recreate myself until I find a way to reach my tentacles beyond the limitations of individual experience -- to change minds and make beauty, starting with myself and moving outwards

Yes and no. I do a lot for the people I care about on the side...but it's not really things that are noticeable. I don't really like to draw attention to the little things I do for people. Sometimes I can be difficult to be around, though. I can have high expectations, be cynical or critical...
