[NT] What's your domain

[thisGuy]

i find that my mind is always exploring social systems. i could do so much with my life if i took school a little more seriously and immersed my head in studies instead of letting Ne loose on every aspect of a given social entity

You NTs are famous for being Intuitive and thinking...always having something to say about nothing...whats your domain? whats your game? where are you second to almost none (that you are aware of)

social systems? biological research? computer programmer? a budding dr. House? being the best mother ever? creating new yoga moves? being a talk show host? the designer of the international space station?

Everything. Unfortunately, that means I lack anything specific

I'm working on my fifth semester of a Bachelor of Science in Pure Mathematics. Actually, I've met all the requirements for the math degree except for one entry level numerical analysis course in the comp sci dept (yuck) but I've got some more gen eds to meet. I don't mind this at all actually because I get to take usually one advanced math class per semester and a bunch of other cool stuff. This semester I'm taking a course on Dostoevsky. Next semester I'm going to take Philosophy of Cognitive Science and Alternative Economic Systems. As far as the math goes, I'm really interested in Geometry, Topology (and Algebraic Topology), and Physics (especially those theories involving some geometry and topology).

I also play the clarinet in the university orchestra, so you could say that music is in my domain as well. In addition to playing I'm very interested in listening and criticism/analysis. I like classical (Barber, Mahler, Dvořák, Beethoven, Brahms, and others), electronic (IDM, ambient, psytrance), and a weird spectrum of rock including electronic rock, art/experimental/post rock, and folk. Generally I'll listen to anything so long as it's art, not just some commercial product.

I'm also a big nerd for political philosophy and the philosophy and science of the human mind. As you might be able to tell from my signature, I'm currently very interested in Libertarian Socialism (AKA Anarchism) which is best defined as the criticism of hierarchies. Examples of things that one might want to criticize are Capitalism, Imperialism, and Patriarchy. In terms of cognitive science, I'm really interested in the evolutionary perspective on psychology, which I think is the proper context for questions about morality, the validity of human reasoning, and free will. Finding a scientific theory which incorporates free will was a major unification point in my worldview.

SUN: The real shine of this domain is the fact it gives you Searing Light at level 2, increasing your arsenal of offensive spells by a huge leap. Searing Light is a really powerful spell considering how low level it is. It deals 1D8/lvl against undead, 1D6/lvl against construct, and up to 5D8 against all others. WITH NO SAVE ALLOWED. The other extras are just icing on the cake. Only good when you are level 9 or above, and especially good empowered/maximized.

Nhr nhr.

No?

willpower, determination and languages.

However, I've not yet found anything that's managed to inspire me to use these talents for its cause. Some things have got my hopes up and I've believed, I've believed, I've believed and I've worked, worked, worked. But each time, Augustus turned out to be Caligula. Except once, but then he died.

By which I mean I lack direction. Not for want of looking, though.

 

[Ionia]

Primarily mathematics (which is certainly my strongest general talent), biology, and economics, which I realize is a fairly miscellaneous collections of domains. I have subsidiary interests in political philosophy, linguistics, and astronomy as well.

There are some stereotypical INTP things of which I'm not terribly fond, most notably music, which I simply don't get, and science fiction (barring Babylon 5, which isn't so much science fiction as it is a political drama which just happens to be set in space).

 

[JustHer]

nanotechnology, technical writing, linguistics, psychology, and mythology (heh)

 

[Oom]

Religion, philosophy, and horticulture.

 

[Timmy]

I excel at wasting time, procrastinating and generally being lazy.
