Dank-ass nuggets of life.

I actually had to have a "Critical Thought"-moment:
------------------------------------------------------------------
com·mu·ni·ty kəˈmyo͞onədē/
noun

1. a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common. "Rhode Island's Japanese community" synonyms: group, body, set, circle, clique, faction;

2. a feeling of fellowship with others, as a result of sharing common attitudes, interests, and goals. "the -sense of community that organized religion can provide"

After @ Costello asked, "...what other independent gaming site can you think of....", it made me reflect on what I said a while ago about the uniqueness of this site (I can't find it; go on your own Brodyquest), but pretty much, like a real community, we should value others' opinions to the best extent we can; if not, we should, at the very least, be willing to view it from another perspective and step out of our own and try to understand what someone else may be going through, understand how to take things with a grain of salt, understand people will usually have a reaction to the things you say, mean, or do, and the response may not always be the reflected intention. There are mistakes in this thing called "life", but there are also erasers and backspace buttons; while not every thing can be taken back, much like certain , we can do the best we can to get the desired result.

So, like any community, things can't always be perfect and universal law/human nature will pretty much dictate that an organism will do its best to adapt and survive, looking out for number one. That isn't always the case, but at its primal core, even the cells in your body do this. While not 100% (use viruses, bacteria and lysosomes as an example), looking out for yourself has been ingrained into our everything. Using bacteria to further an example, human science has developed methods to "fight" bacteria; our knowledge led us to utilize materials to help and harm number one. We used our collective efforts for advancement. A fragment of a construct; the workings of "community".

I guess if you can take away one thing from this: yes, you are unknowingly always looking out for yourself, but you can use your mind to look out for others. If you have the ability to help someone, do it. Understand not everyone is on the same level. Help other organisms when you can--assist to the best of your ability, while trying to minimize self-harm. Never live your life with a "Holier-than-thou" attitude.

Life is a bitch and she fucks everybody.
