AITA for letting my pet Iron Warrior tear down another local marine's fortifications?
Hello all,
I recently adopted my own Iron Warrior. I chose him because a) he is adorable b) ive always wanted an exotic breed and c) he was the only marine at the shelter who approached me to talk at me at length about appropriate siege doctrine. I named him Brother Barnaby aka Barney.
They told me at the shelter that he had mild marine aggression, but nothing a little love and training couldn't fix. Wow, I had no idea what I was getting into! I had to get him a reinforced harness and chain leash to keep him from breaking free and attacking any space marine he saw.
I started walking him early in the morning to avoid other space marines. As we walked by an apartment complex, he started to growl and complain. Then we happened upon what was clearly a local Imperial Fist's fortifications. Before I could stop him, he tore them down in a rage, yelling "IRON WITHIN IRON WITHOUT!!" I was so mortified, because his battle call may have woken someone up!
After he finished crushing the found fortifications, his entire demeanor changed. He didn't pull on the leash, and he didn't even scream "YOU ARE WEAK!!" at the neighboring custodes (his sworn enemy. They fight through the fence, so I've had to put up a big iron wall between our properties so they can't see each other.)
Every day this week, he pulls me back to the Imperial Fist's fortifications. I should feel bad, but it's at an apartment complex, so they probably couldn't keep the fortifications up long term anyway. Tearing down the fortifications is Barney's favorite part of his day, and I would hate to take that away from him, but I also don't want to stress out another space marine. AITA?
AITA?
you're the asshole

Why I think self-pity is the bane of our joy
Stoicism is an old philosophy which is only now starting to have a modern rennecaince with new ideas and concepts. This is great, because it allows us to develop brand new doctrine to fit the world around us, and terrible, because it means we don't have the answer for everything. However, one of the things that are being explored the most as of now is self-pity. This is a very prevalent state of mind in the western world, where it has become so common to complain about the small things that it can seem almost competitive.
Our ability to complain has combined with our ever-rising standard of living to create cartoonish complaints that we are gasping to share with the world around us, who are trying to voice their complaints. As Vers writes: "Alle kalder ud, men ingen gider at svare" (Everybody needs to be heard, but nobody is willing to listen). This has lead Neils Overgaard, a man I deeply respect and look up to, to create what he calls the "immigrant test": Basically, you take whatever thing is bothering you in the moment, and you imagine that you have to tell it to a mother of 5 children who has left Sudan, crossed the Sahara, been illegally exported across the Mediterranean, and finally landed in Greece, ready to live out the rest of her life at the lowest bottom of our society. Your task is now to look her in the eyes, and tell her about the problem that is letting you down, and if you think you can do that, THEN it is worth thinking about.
Self-pity is not the same as complaining, though. I would argue that self-pity is what happens when you systematically feel rightious to complain and the world around you validates this feeling. And what you're doing on a psychological level is train your mind to focus on the negatives and hold on to them, so that you can pass them on to others. Surely, my friends, a brain that only notices and focuses on the bad things is not a happy one, right?
So how do YOU avoid self-pity and the need to complain in general? Well, you're not out of options (though it may be tempting to say that you are). In this post, my advice will be to FORTIFY. Back in the day, people used to say "man up", but that's kinda turned into a toxic thing that means "push it down", and it's also only for men. So now we have the new word "fortify", which is much better. How do you fortify? That's up to you, but it should ultimately make you a more emotionally resilient person. Focusing on the next step can be a great way of fortifying, for example:
Your car breaks down on your way to work. You are going to be late. Do you: A. Have your mood be ruined over the situation, complain to your boss when they ask you why you are late, and get pissy when you get the repair bill? B. Accept that the situation is out of your hands, focus on getting your car towed and finding another way to get to work, and calmly explain to your boss that your car broke down and you still showed up ready to work?
It's entirely up to you, but option B is not only a calmer, more pleasant way to handle the situation, but it also makes you a more resilient being in the future, because your brain will recognise your handling of the situation and be calmer the next time something unpredictable comes up, thus marking the start of a good spiral.
There will be more in the next post, to make it easier to digest.
