Biggest edit of all: If you are reading this, please head over to THIS POST instead.

So you may know which questions are for which aspect dichotomy. You may know which aspects have bias in ties. You may still be mystified about your answer. This is what’s going on.

Straight up, this image is very important:

If you think this is just illustrating the “opposite” pairs across a circle, then you are missing a huge part of your aspect results.

You see, you also get points for an aspect adjacent to the aspect the question is about.

The implications of this can actually be huge. For example, it’s possible to actively have a lean toward Space on the Time/Space questions and still get Time if you have high affinity with Light and Heart, Time’s adjacent aspects. Well, that is, provided you don’t also have affinity for their adjacent aspects.

First let’s get some basic facts down that have already become pretty wildly known: Q1&Q2 are Breath/Blood, Q3&Q4 are Light/Void, Q5&Q6 are Time/Space, Q7&Q8 are Heart/Mind, Q9&Q10 are Hope/Rage, Q11&Q12 are Life/Doom Ties break in the following bias order: Time, Space, Breath, Blood, Light, Void, Heart, Mind, Hope, Rage, Life, Doom EDIT: Other than Time & Space being first and Life & Doom being last, this order is actually inaccurate. I only based it on the commonly held and spread assumption, which may have been based on people attempting tie breakers without knowing that adjacent aspects give points. I have reason to believe the order is actually Time, Space, Heart, Mind, Hope, Rage, Light, Void, Breath, Blood, Life, Doom. There also appears to be an effect from the opposite aspect in breaking ties - having more points in the opposite aspect will make you more likely to receive the aspect as an answer. (In event of a tie the opposite aspect actually helps the aspect win. This tie breaker supersedes the regular tie breaker order.)

Okay, so let’s get down to point assignments, I think I’m correct about the point assignments, but it is possible that I’m still missing something. Let me know if these points don’t work with your results:

10 points for the most extreme answer toward the aspect 4 points for the “leaning toward” aspect answer 6 points for the extreme of the adjacent aspect 3 points for “leaning toward” the adjacent aspect

For example: For the Time/Space questions, if you were to answer “E” for one (the most Space answer), and “B” for the other (the leaning to Time answer), you’d receive: 10 points for Space, 6 points for Mind, 6 points for Void, 4 points for Time, 3 points for Light, 3 points for Heart.

ok this is something i see kind of often and i want to address it because i feel like people are getting worse and worse at this:

when writing anon hate dont end it with “lol”. it COMPLETELY undercuts the sincerity of your criticism. By saying “lol” you’re saying “I’m admitting that the purpose of this message is to make you feel bad, not give you advice that WOULD make you feel bad about yourself or your identity”.

as little as 5 years ago people would send flames that actually HURT a person. you used to get MEANINGFUL attacks on who you were at your core, shit you couldnt change. nowadays its all fuckin “maybe if you stanned twice your hair wouldnt look so greasy LOL” like what the fuck ever dude this petty gradeschool recess shittalk does not stick with a person, you forget about it within 200 seconds and get on with what youre doing.

Okay this one is slightly better because it’s filled with genuine malice beyond a single fact about me. The problem with THIS insult, however, is that your anger with me specifically is coming through so thick that I can tell you’re attacking me from an emotional place and not a logical one, making it kind of hollow.

Additionally, I have no idea where you got 3 different parts of your argument; sad brony, clown aesthetic, guilt trip over a VR headset.

The clown aesthetic I guess I understand because I talk about my interest in clowns a lot, but that’s like saying I have a “ghost aesthetic” because I like ghosts or a “video game aesthetic” because I like videogames.

The other two I legit have no idea where you’re getting those from, which makes me think that you saw a stray post or two of mine and established an idea of what I must be like in your head from a subjective perspective based on a few strands of information.

This is definitely a step up though! We’ve graduated from grade school to middle-school.

me: I did nothing. you are not me. fuck you.

second person fic: 

YOU

Also, since most girls avoid physical contact with men they’re not related to, please do not hug them, but rather shoo the offender away if you can, or at least escort the girl to a safe place. You can still offer words of encouragement and support. Furthermore, understand that the victim may not be very welcoming towards you because she’ll obviously be shaken, and won’t know where you are coming from. If that’s the case, please still give her something to cover herself (hijab is very important, think of it as someone ripping your shirt off) and stand some distance away until you are sure she’s in safe hands.

with both covid-19 + the primaries going on I’ve heard ppl say some truly awful stuff about “boomers” as if all old people are rich conservative white men who deserve to be wiped out, so I drew up this graphic feat. stories of some of the elders I’ve met through work and activism.
