CHIRPER

⏵ CHIRPER ⏴
Welcome to our bi-monthly CHIRPER post!

There are a few ways to interact with CHIRPER:
  • Characters receive a notification to please fill out the form, which is fully optional. There is a character requirement of two characters per answer field. This is to discourage leaving the spaces blank.
  • When forms are not filled out, they can be filled out by the companion bots of Etraya!
  • Other characters can be prompted to fill out their friends' profiles for them. This includes the Q&A section!
  • Alternatively, they choose not to fill out the form, and it remains unfilled! These unfilled profiles will not be posted live.
  • Characters either like or dislike others CHIRPER profiles. These responses are private between the characters involved.

For those who do post a top level, CHIRPER toplevels are worth five extra points regardless of if they are put up willingly by the character themselves. These five extra points do apply to the 25 maximum per month.

Please feel free to switch out any of the Q&A questions with those listed here! We have an example of a filled out form here.

Why would I draw a line at all? Repetition - even of seemingly pointless stimuli — provides us with data. Futility isn’t the issue; it’s whether even a pointless effort can change something inside you.

It seems like it could change, even if it's subtle and slow going

Only when it can be quantified.

[Measured.]

The mind affects the body. The body affects the mind. Poor physical health affects our agency; our mental capacity to make decisions. Plus some behaviour is so ingrained - so instinctive - that it would be impossible for anybody to affect any change at all. You would never remove the problem. Only change how it is perceived.

I guess that's true. So sometimes it's just a matter of perspective?

Correct. But perspective is informed by multiple factors that vary between individuals. Your read of the story will be different from mine when it comes to the details.

True. Kafka's works especially could be read in a lot of different ways. It's interesting to hear other people's perspectives on fictional works

It always is. Sadly, some people don't recognise the opportunity for learning and growth. In any case, when it comes to perspectives, you have mine? Unless there is something else bothering you?

Nah. Only simple curiosity as a fellow reader.
restingstitchface: (Isolated)

Well, I can appreciate curiosity, if nothing else.

[Now get off his lawn.]
