Internal Polylogue
i’m coining this term for how my brain thinks. it’s very loud in here.
i think like talking about sort of abstract brain-thought processes is a good way to relate with singlets. like, do you know how your brain works? do you know your thought processes and how they happen? do you phantase?
it’s like the sort of issue of this (old) Vsauce video. about how there is like, no real way to compare perception? we can’t tell each other the exact layout of our brains, and if we could it would not tell us anything about how we observe?
[…] in terms of our perceptions, we are all alone in our minds.

(i think this is a skill issue, Michael Vsauce…)
i’m just rewatching this video right now! it’s really good! i love the concept of the “explanatory gap”. i think that sort of gets at what i’m trying to get at with this.
i love old vsauce videos. i miss the old internet somewhat.
