If you “go deeply within,” what you find are wish-fulfillment fantasies. I don’t know anyone who found anything more there.

@St_Rev Oh. Thanks; I’ve performed the Bayesian update that entails. Also, I’m glad. -

@St_Rev Hmm, at risk of quibbling, I suspect that is not “going deeply within” in the relevant sense. -
@Meaningness As I said on Tumblr, this kind of thing may be at the root of 'headmate' culture. It happens, modern culture doesn't handle it. -
@St_Rev Yes; I have personal experience with that, and it can be productive. Not what I meant to diss. (Although it has own dangers.) -
@Meaningness I don't think it has much to do with my own severe deficits. -
@St_Rev No, I don’t think it’s inherently pathological at all. Depends on what sort of relationship one has with other entity & with world. -
@Meaningness For me I mean. At this point it's about as difficult and ritualistic as writing fiction. - 1 more reply
