"This is not a very good question because all our technology already makes us cyborgs. You can mention smatrphones and internet, but any hint of technology is already part of being a cyborg, medical technology, prothesis, driving a car,etc...Even wearing glasses...

Life is actually a technological race and it starts in the DNA.

Anyway I would like to become the most technologically enhanced possible but still keep something, that gives me a biological identity and some biological flaws because accepting one's flaw is a souce of transcendance

Our current technology is far from being as sophisticated as nature's biological sophistication.

Our technology is based on order and doesn't offer the randomness and the variability that is created by gene variations, which can create weakness as well as new strength, and there is some sort of beauty in that chaos.

Also I would not want to become dependant of the technology and I'd like to keep as many options as possible, so the cyborgness would have to stop where it would start to become an evolutiionary dead-end.

Also: esthetical considerations matter.



All that being said, all enhancements that can bring me power with minimal sacrifices are wellcome."

"Pisces, unlike what is commonly thought, actually have a huge ego. If you insult a pisces' pride, even if it's a small offence, you might not get forgiven.

Actually the pisces ego is boundless, that's why most pisces learn early in life to adopt a buddhist-like detachement from unimportant things and learn to focus on spirituality rather than materiality, but in love there is no place for philosophy so they can tolerate you having bad temper and being irrational, because managing impulsivity is their thing and they do enjoy a bit of chaos, but they won't tolerate you insulting them in their ego or being condescending or anything like that."

"The universe is chaotic.

I like structure but chaos is inevitable, it breaks and renews everything."

"Personally I always want to deal with thing at the deepest level. I generally want my decisions to be based on definitive, irrevocable arguments. When I have a problem i try to get to the very bottom of the problem and examine it from the most fundamental position, that require getting rid of every ounce of ego and thinking about the long term.

That's why the grudge either evaporates instantly, if for example I decide it's not worth my time, or it can stays like forever and build up if I think it must be vindicated.

We pisces generally have no ego, but we can feel insulted by someone else's stupidity when dealing with us.



the advice is don't get in the way if the pisces has a real grudge."

"I don't think you can piss off a pisces or it's difficult because what pisces learn to do since very young is to control anger and emotions. We know that when we let it out it's ugly, self destructive and uncontrollable (it is the force of the aries, but not yet focused). It is an image of ourself that we don't like.

The young pisces can be violent and cruel, part for experimentation and part because of irrational urges, but they quarantine this part of themselves very early. All the pisces I've met were all keeping their raw self behind a gentle fa?ade, but only other pisces can feel it. That's why the company of other pisces can be unpleasant sometimes.

Sometimes we manage to get pissed off and violent, generally by a misunderstanding on our part or a bout of irrational paranoia, but if people try to get us pissed off, they generally don't manage to do it. We learn to be impervious to insults and to get to a higher moral ground.

Sometimes this self-control added to our intelligence makes it easier to give-in against opposition rather than to fight, but the best of us really only appears when we channel our energy. If the pisces is in control they can become an efficient machine, like a shark.

Sometimes we do voluntarily release the kraken when the stars are aligned, either if we have to fight for something that we love or sometimes just for entertainment,if all the lights are green and all the moral blocks have been cleared, we can enjoy a bloodbath.

Pisces are really like vulcans, you won't find anybody with better control, but be careful where you step."

"I've never met a virgo that was not humble, and they might be feeling superior inside, but they're not showing off and they're serious about what they believe, they're trying. So I wouldn't call them 'arrogant'."



"Well there is no lack of self praise coming from scorpios about themeselves and their own sign. Just look at any astrological comment made by a scorpio and it's difficult to find one that isn't about their awesomeness.

Maybe that's the problem, it's difficult to love a leader that spends so much ressources organizing hommages to his own name.

And I don't know why they say Leo is the sign of ego..."

"I don't think the pisces sensibility is specifically tied to feelings or suffering, we just happen to be receptive to people's feeling but it is just one thing among all the strange things picked up by our radar and broadcast on our mental cinema.

And detachment is definitely one way, and probably the most logical way, to deal with this. I'm just fed up to read that the pisces should work in hospitals or charities or prisons, wtf..."

"The feeling of pain is unbearable to me, mental or physical pain on helpless people or animals, I am very sensitive to this, and I would go out of my way to help an animal, but I think that is not restricted to pisces.

I think Pisces are very sensitive to other people's pains more than their own, but I think that a lot of pisces learn to become insensitive rather than spending their time helping other, in fact, with time the extreme sensitivity tends to create more detachment than compassion.

I think traditionnal popular astrology only examines the surface of the pisces, but under the surface is more interesting. I am trying to write down my thoughts about this at this moment."

Ï'm totally not a religious guy (anti-religion even) but when I look at the clouds I feel this religious emotion.

Especially the huge absolutely white clouds with blue and orange shades that drift slowly over cities, dwarfing the tallest buildings.

It's the mix of power and beauty, they're thousands of tons of matter yet untangible and floating in the wind.

they can bring life to the deserts but they have the power to flood and destroy everything.

they're eternal travellers floating over oceans and lands

Sometimes i think that I would like to be a cloud, Is this a pisces thing?"

"I am psychic, I have had many experiences since I was a child and I have actually spent a lot of my life time trying to work these abilities.Which is difficult because they are irrational and practically uncontrollable. All this dedication made me become very cold toward people, not a like shut-in, but I have way too much control over my emotions now, and I have become very detached.

I remember a few years ago I was working on an airport (it's my job), it was a calm afternoon and I was relaxing in a vehicle in a peaceful isolated natural area on the airfield, then suddenly I had a very bad feeling, I had visions of blood and maimed people, it was not scary, but nauseous, like what you feel when you see someone skinning a rabbit. It made me sick and I got back to my office. Less than one hour later, a terrible air crash happened, more than one hundred deads, no survivors. The plane crashed less than a mile from the airport where I work. I had never had such a mortiferous feeling before.

It's a famous air crash, I don't want to give too many details, but most of you must have heard of it.

Regarding training, I want to say, that one of the things that never gave any results for me is lucid dreaming or Astral voyage, I don't know why these are so popular on the internets these days, but I tend to think, there is nothing interestng to research there.

I have had some good results with remote viewing protocols. And other techniques that are too personal to share. I mean these are things that are better to experience by yourself, every experience is personal."

"being empathetic and sensitive is totally not the same thing as being kind and caring, and that's a big misconception found pop astrology

Some pisces can be compassionate, it's the spontaneous reaction , but those who do become socially weak, that's why a lot of pisces actually learn to become detached from everything throughout their life. this detachment can lead to being very procedure-obsessed and methodic in their obsessions."

Sometimes I get very nostalgic about the past, like falling in a real depression, but I'm mostly nostalgic about the part of me that has died with the past or the good times I've had with some people, more like an eulogy to youth and innocence, and then I move on.

I have divorced and I sometimes cry about the bliss of the first years or marital life, but I wouldn't want my ex wife to come back in my life.

"If you allow me to give some advice. If you really want to research the paranormal, you must learn to become discriminating, I mean not all things are real or worth researching.

Apply the scientific method as much as is possible and keep your mind open, I mean keep it open to abandon things that are not worth your time."

"I am not a female but I have the different personalities thing, it comes naturally, I am not forcing it. I am different with every acquaintance and I can have some very personalized relationships with them but every personality is compartmented and kept separate from the others, which means most of them don't really know a lot about me, and my parents know NOTHING about me or my friends. I don't want to share anything of my life with my parents because they already are too close to me.

as for leos, I was friend with a leo guy, we grew up being best the best friends, he was a man of principles and I liked that, but as we grew older he became bitter and he became some sort of fanatic christian/religious nut and I didn't like that so we parted ways, maybe that story will be of good advice for your relationships with pisces females."

LOL

"I like virgos because they're trying to hide their thoughts but I can read through them like an open book.

They have this thing that they do, when they lower their head and pretend they're working on sthg and not giving attention to you, but when they do that I know they're carefully thinkning about something I just said because they don't want to be pressured or caught off guard.

You can literally ingrain ideas in their heads, they'll pretend not to be interested at first. Just stay there pretending you don't care and watch the slow thought process in action. Then a short time afterward they'll come back to you totally enthusiastic about that thing you told them about.

They make good kids to educate."

"guys, you don't need anything in your chart to stop being a carpet, get over that astrology sh*t sometimes."

"yes, the secret is not to chase "things" but to chase "attitudes" for yourself (toward things and people).

If you look to get attached to an attitde (or a self discipline) things will not matter as much, they will come and go, and you can keep refining your discipline forever, for those times when your pisces search for perfection will make it appear obsolete.

You are the one thing that you can't get rid of , so that's the thing you should pay attention to

Hope that makes sense..."

2013 when I bothered making long posts.

I can't even bother reading these anymore

Now I know that enoch is a little bitch tho

"you can't "save " everybody, you can't even save the people close to you and that you love.

Even the people closest to you don't wan't/need your saving and will probably despise you if you tell them you want to save them.

There is only one person you must save, the one that you have control on.

Vulgar people will pull you down, just set an exemplary path for yourself. You will die, and when this happens, you must be able to look back at yourself knowing that you never compromised. Never give up the divine aspirations, and in the words of herbie hancock, give it all your heart."

""visual cues": yes pisces (and maybe scorpios) are very good at picking up visual clues and reading body language, but telepathy does also exist, but it's the sort of thing you need to experiment for yourself. There's no way I can convince anyone of it's existence if they are not receptive to it."

"the least suck-up sun signs are pisces,aries and taurus

-pisces are slightly misanthropic and hate being dependant on someone

-aries want to be on top of everybody and don't plan long term

-taurus want to be the ones that other people suck up to"

"I like to understand people and dissect them to understand their inner working like if they were a car, but not with the people that I love because I know people are always disappointing under the hood, so with the people I love I prefer a little mystery (but not too much, I keep an eye open)"

"pisces men can be intoxicated with the sexual fantasy and be ruthless, like a shark intoxicated by the blood, but then they wake up and wonder what they're doing in that mess.

If it doesn't happen fast they probably get disgusted of it and it doesn't happen, that makes them even more ruthless.I know I can be."

"I swim like a fish but I am scared in open water, looking at a blue fog not knowing what huge beast might come at you any moment can be terrifying."

"I only "believe" in sun signs, as I do see similarities between people of same sun signs. I think it might have to do with seasonal influences or sthg.

I don't buy all the other planet related crap. people can justify everything and anything with planets and it's pseudo-science."

"-Aries: can be brutal, not very intellectually gifted, can paint themselves in corner

-Taurus: Too materialistic and sensualist, most of the taurus I know had problems because of their greed or their lust.no self-control

-gemini: airheads

-cancer: whiny, too intimate, constantly infringing on personal space.

-leo: the one I knew became grumpy and a real fascist as he aged. Wanted to rule everything and everybody as a dictator.

-virgo: can take something cool and make it incredibly boring and vulgar, empty, loves rituals without meaning, a world of boredom.

-libra: want to think everything out, unfortunately they're not always insightful so their whole outlook on the world is often "off". conformist. confuse erudition with intelligence.

-scorpio : the worst narcissists, and this is often their demise. Easy to trump or make fun off.

-sagittarius: so obsessed by their look that they can become ridiculous, selfish, can ass-lick their way to the top without shame.

-cap : I don't know any cap

-aquarius : constantly talking, but have nothing interesting to say.

-pisces: too intense and easily offended. paranoiac. raging internally and trying to hide it."

Pisces can be either very sarcastic or very candid.

Most of the time, fluctuate between the two extremes, depending on the situation or their mood.

Pisces have the sharpest brain for sarcasm but sometimes choose not to express it, or just get bored of sarcasm itself.

I'm a bytch because you're embarrassed of your posts from a few years ago?



I think there are some great insights in here and I enjoy when you're more open. I was reading some stuff you said about paranormal research from a while back and agreed with it; its an interest of mine.

But that makes me a bytch? Maybe you're just extremely defensive and insecure for no good reason. These posts are great.

since you're an amateur psychoanalist, why don't you analyze cloudy, she loves the help

ur so cute and worth obsessing over

"Sometimes the pisces wants to be chased. But it shouldn't happen too often, otherwise it's going to be a problem.

Anyway, if you decide to chase, do it fully and don't look back. Show that you're willing to go all the way."

"it can happen if the parents are for example air signs and, under the guise of caring, are constantly asking stupid questions and belittling the person in a sneaky way.

My parents for example are always nice on the outside but every time I visit them they're always asking the same personal questions, and repeating the same stupid advice. I've told them to respect my limits several times but apparently it's something that they can't do.

Sometimes when you have someone on your back 24/7 you are obliged to snap. Me and my aries sister did very often when we were living in their home."

elle already ripped me apart by my request

"I have spent most of my life trying to eliminate situations that would make me jealous. Not that I am really that jealous but I hate having my reputation tarnished by someoene else's actions.

I am actually very easy going and tolerant but I hate when things happen behind my back and I also hate being made fun of or ridiculed.

So I'm not really jealous, it's more pride.

Even though I don't like promiscuity, I think I would accept an "open relatioship " type of thing as long as it would be equitably done. That said I would probably not accept that in a traditionnal marriage situation because of the reasons I told above, and for the sake of children."

"As a pisces, I do have some destructive rages sometimes but I don't accomplish them very often.

When I am in a sour environment, one of my favorite tactics can be to "swim with the sharks", to become a shark myself and use this new environment to progress to the top circle if that's possible. One thing pisces can do easily is forfeit our moral standards, and if the company has already gone to sh $ t, then there is nothing wrong in doing that.

It can be a better idea than to quit the job or to ruin it or to kill everybody in the company."

"Thanks to firebunny and his threads I finally managed to understand the psyche of virgos."

found his birthdate

march 6th 1972

Moon is between sag and scorpio

I'm guessing scorpio based on the edgyness

I promise I am not analyzing you. I'm celebrating you. So is she. If you don't like the attention, I won't. You apparently get upset when you don't win awards, though its no wonder when you have a dxp polymath in your category. I agree that you should. Just trying to give you a little recognition and its cool to see when you are more open...sincerely.

apparently you can't stop hiding little bitch jabs in the middle of your tirades can you?

I wish the dxp awards didn't exist, they're just for popularity fairies, and I certainly wouldn't never want to get one.

"Listen, I know it can be difficult to get over that pop astrology crap when you're young, but eventually you'll realize that you don't have anything to prove to anybody.

All the cat-people who write the pop astro crap are generally sleazy new age parasites who love nothing better than rehash cliches they've heard from other places. I suppose theie could make a great pop-astrologer one day if the weed doesn't claim his last braincell.

Now the thing about Pisces is that we are alien to any form of definition. A pisces can be very manly or the total opposite and none of this really matter because labels flow over our scales like water.

Don't let any label hold you back and you'll realize the true potential that is within.

You must only pay attention to the realization of your objectives."

"Worst sign IMO is gemini. they seem to be constantly obsessed with food and a lot of their conversatios are about what they are eating or what they're thinking about eating.

They're the one who make "what are you eating" threads on the internet.

Pisces have the instinct of gluttony innately but prefer to control it and a lot of them have a more ascetic life"

"real men don't brag"

the problem is that most of these quotes are out of context

"all the scorpio men I have met were rather short, in the 160-175 centimeters range."

lmao he was bashing scorpio men 24/7 at the time

Will ferrel attracts sympathy more than being funny. He's like a big teddy bear and he's great to have in movies but he's not that funny by himself

this one is pretty interesting in the context of DXP

Last one for 2day

Every sign can be afflicted but I think it is stereotypically a virgo male thing. They are completely self centered and refuse to see the changes around them

some examples:

-michael jackson (the "peter pan syndrome" was invented for him lol)

-keanu reeves

-charlie sheen

sorry

what are you, her spokesperson?

"personally it's not so much that I am selective about people, it's more that I don't care about most people so yeah, I only bother with the close family, the ones that I might regret one day, and ignore other people. They're just annoyances."

" I don't buy into all the "give pisces man room to breath" bs that I hear here all the time. I for example can have very dark moods, but they are generally short enough that I can hide them from the S.O., especially at the dating stage. I would never want to subject a woman I love to these, or anybody else for that matter. I always keep my dark mood for myself and I can find enough alone time for that inside a normal schedule. I was married for 8 years and never asked for any of those "give me room" moments to my wife.

What I know OTOH is that I can be dating someone very intensely for a while and being very caring, but I can suddenly snap out of love very fast if I realize that I am not receiving any affection in exchange. That happened a few times."

"I like to use "like" sometimes in some of my posts on the internet just so I can sound like an idiot teenager. But it is a stylistic choice."

"I think I was a bit of a bully when I was younger.

Also pisces can be anything, but most adults aren't bully, they can be ruthless capitalists tho"

Please don't get started it's a nice thread.

"There's no reason a straight man would keep texting a woman and visit her if he's no interested in sthg.

Unless you're a really close friend or a professional acquaintance or he's gay and wants to talk about boys."

"most astrology is crap"

I don't really wish I lived in another era, but my favorite idealized era is the 1920s-1930s

It was a time when everything was possible, a big part of the world was still to explore, it was a time of great ideologies (that lead to disaster but whatever), great art (modern art), futurism, object design and architecture was great, the world was yours to build and some of the greatest capitalist empires where built during these years. It is also the time when science progressed the fastest.

Men's fashion was stylish, it was a very inspiring era.

But it probably sucked if you weren't white and rich and a man.

"Gemini change opinion all the time and in the open. They remain at the surface of everything(air sign).

Pisces are deep, so they explore one of their opinions and generally keep the other one under the table.

Some pisces may never deviate from their chosen path through all their life, some will shift polarity more or less frequently, some can try to marry both extremes in a more or less logical, wave-particle-like duality.

A pisces can be the most faithful defender of an idea, while having an intimate understanding of the opposite concept.

Just don't put anything past a pisces. A disappointed pisces can become the best enemy of their former cause.

I don't know about virgos duality though,they don't seem to have any."

"I don't know any libra that I would call a hurricane. More like a closed circuit air conditioning.

pisces is more like the udersea currents"
