Psychologists and capsuleers

This came up on a comm channel. I decided to post because a rookie pilot seemed self-concious about it.

Yes, I am seeing a shrink. I have regular appointments.

Consider the line of work capsuleers are engaged in. Consider the responsibility we have. Seeing a therapist to help you keep perspective is a perfectly normal, healthy and responsible thing to do. Staying sane is part of the job.

Bombing art

MPT got bombed. I was looking forward to the play.

At least there are no people dead this time.

On the nature of willpower

What is willpower like?

Is it like candy, something to hoard and gone once consumed? Or is it like a muscle, growing stronger in use?

Capsuleers and corpses

Many capsuleers seem to have a fascination with corpses.

They collect corpses. Friendly, hostile or unknown; it does not seem to matter.

They keep their prizes in the freezer and compare their collections of deceased human flesh like one might compare collections of paperbooks or holoreels.

I find it creepy. Extremely creepy.

What kind of person gets satisfaction out of owning the remains of dead people? Dead friends?

Remaking choices?

At one point of time, we made the choice to become capsuleers. I suspect few of us knew what we were getting into, at the time. I certainly did not.

If you could remake the choice of whether you want to become a capsuleer, knowing what you know now, would you still choose the same way?

Providence, PL and D'K

In Providence, PL are playing cat and mouse with D'K. It is a propaganda game. They want to cause division in the D'K ranks.

If Damu'Khonde loses, will they come home? Considering they abandoned their kin for fighting over nullsec, what would happen? Would that be a good thing for us or not?

Appreciating people

Sometimes, it can be too easy to forget to appreciate the people around you, taking them for granted. I have the honor and joy of knowing many exceptional individuals. Honorable, intelligent, generous, capable.

I have been given much.
