Sharting, feeling like I have to fart but actually shitting my pants
Ureka moments are fun. I also love fleeting moments of "being on the same page" with strangers that you will never meet again.
Mhm, both of those. On the rare occasion I meet someone whose train of thought seems to be perfectly in sync with mine.
I think sonder is pretty neat, even if it seems a bit odd
Yessss I was gonna mention that too bit didnt wanna make too long a list!
Take off in a jet. I giggle like a little girl every time.
I count how long it takes from standstill until in the air, every time. I don't even remember why, I think it's just exciting because planes are cool.
FYI it's 25-30 seconds almost every plane I've been on.
Feel like giddish kid every time, like the beginning of an adventure.
I just like the rush of being jammed back into the seat for take off
The most fascinating? Being horny
My dick has led me to places I normally wouldn't go even with a gun
And if that's not fascinating, then Idk what it is
That mood of calm, privacy, and sone unease from liminal spaces. Almost the feel being in the woods.
Well you know how the germans always have a word for an obscure feeling, google Waldeseinsamkeit.
It's the Germans every time.
Longing. It's fascinating to me how crushing that feeling can be, even though it's not negative or even heavy in itself.
Longing for what you can never have, alas
fascination I suppose
Missing. It's fascinating for me to remember things I did with my grandma a bunch of years ago before she passed away.
I lost one of my dogs family. She was so sweet and always wanted to jump and lick your face. She moved her little tail and it moved her entire body. Lately one of the other dogs has been doing the same and I can't stop thinking about my other one. I miss her every day.
I thank the universe for the little details that make me remember and miss people I love.
I’m not sure what to call it, but just being totally enmeshed in a project where I become hyper-focused on building something, creating a design, solving a problem or fixing something, it just sort of blots everything else out. Consumed? Obsessed? I can’t stop until I’ve done the thing, but afterwards it kind of sucks. I’m just coming off that now and feel aimless, and I’m like, “Ok, well now what do I do with myself?” It’s not as simple as just finding something new, I have to be personally interested in the thing.
I think thats called a post project slump. The feeling of emptiness after having been in a state of hyperfocus.
I love that feeling, if I get it while creating, or building something. If I'm successful, i.e. the result matches my expectations, the sense of accomplishment and pride negates the feeling of emptiness you speak of.
Post flow clarity.
When you're angry and on the verge of tears; sounds basic, maybe, but it feels so overwhelming when you're both shaking with anger and at the same time trying to hold in your sadness. Makes you want to both yell at something and curl into a ball and disappear. It's a double negative, which makes it more powerful. I'm not an angry or short-tempered person, so whenever this happens to me I feel so lost and confused with what to do.
Rather specific and I don't know if it has a name, I'd just call it Dread:
The feeling when imagining a reality that theoretically might have been possible, specifically one with an aspect that is in every way horrible. I'm not talking about a dystopian society like often found in media. Im talking about a next level of Dread in every aspect.
The only real example for this is the Ordensstaat Burgrund from a Hearts of Iron 4 Modification called The New order. The so called Ordensstaat Burgrund is a "nation" that was established in the remains of France after the Nazis won. Every sentence written about it makes it a miserable place. The nation exists only to fuel the SS under the lead of Heinrich Himmler.
In the game, there is a phrase along the lines of "The sun never sets over burgundy, it is too afraid.". It is so bad, if the Nazis "win" against them, it might be considered a good ending.
I cannot express with words what feeling this whole thing produces. It is a horrible masterpiece of unexpected quality.
This random site explains some context if you're interested.
Also worth a note: their music's team is amazing. The Burgundian Lullaby is probably the most atmospheric piece of Music I know.

There’s an awful (complimentary) short story by Clive barker called Dread.
I’m an incredibly squeamish and anxious person who’s especially sensitive *** I don’t know how spoilers work here, but they show up wrong when I do it through my app, so it’s at the end*** and I read that on what I did not realize was a sarcastic recommendation. It was a very bad call for me, but is super effective
spoiler
to the idea of eating animals (when I ate meat, I was okay with chicken nuggets, but could never eat a chicken wing, because it’s much more obviously an animal) or my food being contaminated by insects
Im 16 and for past 3 years my parents give me feeling "paro" :(.
Better than parvo, I guess. That's how I first read it. Need coffee.
Awe is my fave. Specifically the awe I feel when I look up at the sky on a clear night and see lots of stars.
Nostalgia. Always so bittersweet and full of wistfulness. Combined with the (newly learnt for me) des vu, knowing that I will inevitably feel those emotions for the time I'm in now. And then again for moments that don't even exist yet.
Nostalgia, when it hits for things that I was never a part of.
Oh god yes. Watching smth like stranger things and having nostalgia for 80s America. A time I wasnt alive and a place Ive never been.
For me it was "That 70's Show," watched the shit outta that.
Yesss sitcoms always do it.
Ambivalence. Reminds me that not everything's black and white. Also makes me think of Red Dwarf. Lol.
Could a feeling or emotion be more fascinating than fascination?
