Cracked explains.

These words go together as well as 'Yahoo news explains,' 'Buzzfeed explains' or 'Wikipedia explains.'

[Graknorke]

Wikipedia is actually good at explaining things, in my opinion. As long as it's not anything much more specialist than you already know.

[Loud Whispers]

Wikipedia is the kind of site to clearly explain to you a person died before they were born

Don't think there's any time travelers documented there yet

[kilakan]

There's a couple of those old-timey photo's of people wearing vastly -out of period- clothing that could be taken as documentation of time travelers.  Such as pictures of someone in very old times wearing what looks like a modern day t-shirt complete with rubberized lettering on the front, though these always need to be taken as a grain of salt. 

Speaking of which... I hate what our modern day tech has done to sabotage the human belief system, how often do you see a picture/video or hear something on the news that just makes you go 'well that's gotta be a fake.'

***king photoshop basically.

I'm remembering all the cringeworthy things I've done in the past and don't know how to deal with it without self loathing.

Go back in time and kill your past self, then be the first person to accurately die before you were born on wikipedia

• Split identification between Current Self and Past Self(selves)
• Try to piece out why past self did the what they did
• Take those "Whys" and piece out what personality traits enabled those actions from those situations
• Disconnect the "Whats" from the traits in your mind if they were connected for some silly reason (but don't forget them!)
• Contrast Current Self and Past Self(selves) personality traits
• Now compare.
• Decide which personality traits you do or don't want by evaluating if the "Whys" and "Whats" will help you in being the kind of person you want
• Condition yourself away from or towards the chosen personality traits(generally by not even considering the "Whys" that arise from them as a valid option)
• Accept that you are trying to be a different person or already are

Alright, sounds good.

-long and helpful post-

To be frank, I think I prefer Loud Whisper's idea, but I think this will work as a backup /s.

Thanks, though. While not surprised by your wisdom, I think you made it pretty accessible, even for me. I'll use this technique more frequently.

What about stillbirths? Do they count as dying before they were born?

[Graknorke]

There's some huge insects trying to fly into my window. They're really big and loud and keep banging into the glass. It doesn't stop from being disconcerting.

EDIT: Augh, I was going to go out and kill the thing, shone my torch over and it was actually a giant hornet hunting moths or something. Fucccccck that.

I'd suppose so, but no normal person is going to document a stillborn on Wikipedia. That's a little too EDGY for most.

We bismuth now

[Execute/Dumbo.exe]

Oh god, I'm playing Peace Walker again, mission 98, and jesus christ I'm going to get a heart attack.
6 enemies left without being spotted.
If I do get spotted, I will have to redo this entire half hour mission over.
I would say expect a post in the rage thread but it's gone now.
