Internaut Bushido



There is a code we must abide by at all times. And I don’t mean the ten Internaut commandments. This code is about basic internet surfing etiquette and it has recently been brought to my attention that there are only a few users online who still follow the code. The Internauts aren’t just internet-using kids. We are the future. We are GenZ. We are the internet samurai. And this is our Bushido. 


Note: There is no particular order because all these points are equally important. 
  • If you are going to quote or use art owned by someone, you cannot change their quote or artwork. If you wish to rework / paraphrase, either mention that you have paraphrased or ask the original creator for their permission.
  • Use respectful language and if circumstances need you to be in character, be consistent about it. Sloppy work is unacceptable.
  • Fact check your reposts. Reposting means you vouch for the credibility of the post being reposted. If they lose their credibility, so do you.
  • Be able to back up your own arguments and points. We need thinkers not religious parrots.
  • Emailing large files in an absolute last-last-last-last-resort.
Abide by the code. Honor the Internaut Bushido. It is the only thing that stands between us and a total chaos. Fail to follow the code, and you will be branded a degenerate of the Order of Internauts.

Psych Discussions

I have been thinking again of two different topics and this post is a sort of a report on my thoughts of these two topics. I would love to hear your thoughts, either pro or con about the concerned topic.

So someone may not have just one voice that they think in, but multiple voices that could have a conversation among themselves and result in the ultimate decision that person may choose. I believe that they call this polyphonic internal narration. These are not rare cases of people but they are not common cases either. I would say "uncommon" is a better suiting word. Regardless, the existence of such a case got me thinking. The most simplified basic way this ...

Is it possible to be with a small group of people for an hour almost everyday, and know next to nothing about each other? Even in prison, criminals spend a lot of time with other criminals and make friends. Humans are social creatures, aren’t they? So why is it that I have spent at least an hour on my bus transport every work day for almost two years and know not much about the same regular passengers? From my house to school, which is in the main town. Even when you see them on the road, you feel excited and anxious, “Hey, I know you!” But do you, really? Most passengers plug in their headphones and listen to music to distract their brains from thoughts. These are also the same people who want change and advancement in society. This lady I sit next to in the bus, I finally broke the ice and we had a nice conversation. I learnt her name, what she does for a living (health statistician) and how many kids she goes home to. Before today I didn’t even know health statistics was a thing. Wh...
