Midnight Pub

A brief glimpse of a specific instance of duality

~inquiry

I've fallen into a useful pattern of posting word jumbles/salad that either leave out or "convert to distant references that only a few will 'get'" what I really think *here* relative to what I really think in no uncertain terms in the blog, and that split mode of operation feels rather real to me for imitating the pretense of being a person amongst other persons, where the former is how you get along, and the latter is how you're shown the door.

I say that with a nod to ~tffb's [1] "AFK" acronym [2], which reminded me there really is no difference between "real life" and "online" save my (and maybe your?) telling myself (yourself?) there is - but ditto on how I (we?) tell ourselves all kinds of things about how things are - which, repeated enough, somehow seemingly makes it so.

I think that's supremely so when it comes to details of selfhood/personhood, and secondarily regarding how selves/persons "ought" interact. Room elephant interaction protocols "invisibly materialize", and (most) everyone acts accordingly - i.e. those who don't blink are interacted with, and those who do blink are shunned out of interaction space existence.

Something like that.... ;-)
