my "depressing" view of sentience
@literorrery I think my subconscious rationalizer chews on things constantly then seeds my conscious rationalizer. That's how I do my work. And I make my conscious rationalizer help the subconscious one by doing "magick" and meditation.

@literorrery I think you can control the rationalizer to some extent?
my "depressing" view of sentience
It doesn't exist. We rationalize mechanical reactions. Always. Anxiety is arousal, discomfort. Why arousal discomfort coming from the body? Pick a stressor. Freak out about it. You rationalize simple feelings. You rationalize automatic reactions.
But why is that depressing? Why not find it freeing? Zen? Perfectly calming? You can't control your moment to moment reactions but your rationalizer can increase and decrease the probability of reactions.
@literorrery usually I really dislike sci-fi. Last time I enjoyed it was Dune.
@literorrery blindsight. It's very good imo. But people might be depressed by my idea of sentience ;)
My bosses read this book and were like "this is super depressing". I read it and thought "this mirrors exactly my view of sentience"
I'm free to talk for the next... 5 hours? If anyone wants to talk. It's me, a train, and I'm almost done with a hard sci fi about the illusion of self which mirrors my views.
It'd probably be smart for me to talk to a human. I'm happy to listen about whatever you like ;)
internet depression
@literorrery exactly. I did the small things to remove it from my obsessive cycle back in April.
internet depression
Twitter is an unending torrent of nazis and news of the dissolution of our civilization and it's super hard to handle. I hardly ever check it. And I only read my mentions.

Hey, folks. This is a quick reminder since we're coming up on the end of the month that I'm running a Patreon to show off my writing -- https://www.patreon.com/literorrery -- which directly goes to help support myself, my wife, and my roommates. You don't have to contribute to get access to the stories. I'm trying to cut the cord with Twitter, so I'd appreciate the help with getting the message out.

@IrisKalmia I just fade out. No confrontation. There are plenty of actually good people to hang with.
