That the profile picture doesn't look human, doesn't matter.
Your's is currently various pink and white geometric shapes,
Of course we both know we are not those profile pictures, but instead humans operating electronic devices.

That’s because I haven’t posted a picture of Shila so the system generated one.
But you posted your dehumanized picture of yourself. That is how you want to be seen.

@Shila
Even with the picture, the truth of my humanity exists.
Also not so much a dehumanized picture of 'myself, as a character from a video game.

People understand and appreciate geometric shapes and puzzles.
But you made yourself look like a freak. You are showing very low self esteem.

@Shila
Eh, my esteem when I chose the profile picture, and now about it, are both rather high,
I was disappointed that DDO went the way it did,
And I wasn't 'fully on board with DART,
Lemmings are known for mass migration, it was also the name and animal of a video game I enjoyed in the past,
,
So I chose a name Lemming as a bit of a joke about everyone leaving en masse, even myself,
Though I still stayed on at DDO until it went down.
I sometimes wonder what criminals philosophize about, conclusions that they reach, logic that they use.
I wonder what limits, attributes might have,
Take flexibility, once you can bend you joints 'every which way, how can you be any more flexible?
Well, I suppose next one could bend their bones, but octopus level flexibility, how can you be much more flexible?
. . .
I suppose the thought pops to my mind due to fiction,
Fantasy martial arts and cultivation for example,
Where's the ceiling?
Why can't 'everyone achieve?
Special bodies or ingredients I suppose,
Ah, but the illusion of importance, security,
Rambling.
What's the limit to willpower?
Flexibility can have an assumed limit, what about willpower?
@#61
Maybe the colonists 'ought to have colonized America, despite the original inhabitants/
. . .
Hm, 'ought. . .
Not very nice to the original inhabitants,
Nice to one's own descendants, but probably could have been nice to one's own descendants in other ways.
Of course the idea of ought do nice, or even idea of what 'is nice,
Confuses me a bit,
Darn nihilism,
Note to self,
It's good to separate aspects of individuals, from the individual themself,
So long as a goal of ours is to have a good time, be polite,
Disagreement with 'one aspect, need not bleed into 'all interactions.
Usually.
Sometimes I find it fun to look through land, houses for sale.

Sometimes I find it fun to look through land, houses for sale.
Think you will find one near the high school you go to?
-->
@Shila
No, more I just find it fun to imagine what I might build on various land, or life I would live in various houses, locations.
Even if I bought one location, other locations and different lives would still be there,
So it's more about the daydream, than making actionable plans in life.
If one has X many immigrants from X country,
Why not simply take X amount of land the country,
In terms of the X immigrants being X% of the countries population, take X% amount of land?
. . .
It's strange, online acquaintances,
People whose words, actions, 'apparent intentions,
One can like a fair bit,
Implying that one likes the 'people themselves,
But the people are not known,
Well, how much can 'anyone be known?
But I think one knows online people, a fair bit less, than friends or family one has known in person, usually.

People with just a high school education daydream more than college graduates who are too busy in their careers.

@Shila
Hm, a reason not to get a college degree, you are saying?
Why do I never see an area of water for sale?
Suppose one owns some land, then the landed get's flooded over into a lake/river/swamp, what happens to that person's ownership of their land?

People with just a high school education can only daydream, than making actionable plans in life.
College graduates on the other hand are too busy with their successful careers and life.

I could buy land if I wanted to, I have funds,
Eh, success in life, varies, people have different goals, desires.

All you have listed are your disabilities and nothing about having funds or dreams.
Lemming profile. About Me:
Shallow education. A bit rambly. A bit lacking in coherence at times. Generally meh. I'm usually a rather friendly and polite person I'd say, although I do have lapses on occasion.
Movie Theater was showing Jaws (1975) this night,
So I went, enjoyed it, tension, sudden scares, humor, giant shark.
Destruction is inevitable at times, perhaps,
If one wants to continue, in a fashion,
This can only occur in a reconstruction,
Of what was lost by erosion,
Or cut away, of necessity.
Frogs. Literally just frogs.

Frogs. Literally just frogs.
Like jumping frogs

@Shila
idk man I was just thinking about frogs at the time

Are leaping frogs too advanced for you?
-->
@Shila
Nope. I just didn't care to think anything more than "frog."
-->
@Mharman
--> @ShilaNope. I just didn't care to think anything more than "frog."
So you got stuck at frog?
-->
@Shila
Not stuck. Just not caring to move.
Who do you consider your 'people?
What 'defines that people?
. . . I'd say a group that one identifies with, yet groupings, vague and various.
Family, language, morals, religion, ethnicity, hair color, speech impediments, no speech impediments,
So vague. . . Arbitrary, yet even people voraciously opposed to tribalism, hard to be without a group, to be 'so antisocial, how can one 'avoid 'action, in response to society? Unless one banished themself a hermit forever, never again hearing or seeing another person for the rest of their life,
But even then, even then, dogs, wolves have packs, blood pumps through our veins, even without 'people, similarities between oneself and their environment is seen, even do away with everything but a vast rock surface. . . We are social animals, and man once worshiped the Sun, some still do, I imagine. . . Can one 'avoid people?
Identity?
