just like a rainbow doesn't exist unless specifically angled light rays hits a mind, the "asshole" is an illusion create by specific words being interpreted by a mind. the rainbow *does* exist. u can take a pic of it & write a wiki on it, etc...https://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1370415211492954113 …
another example. say someone is being very passive aggressive over chat or email. the perception that there is an "asshole" on the other side is correct! BUT that "asshole" doesn't actually exist from the interior pov of the other personhttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1357215051514486785?s=20 …

so if you ask someone "r u being an asshole?" no one *actually* believes it. there are always extenuating circumstances to "eat" the shadow is to realize that even though the "asshole" is not "me" because it is not "real", it DOES have real world effectshttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1318342337341214720 …

a cult basically is when once hamster gets really good at ball building and invites all the hamsters to join in a giant huge big ball. this creates the intimacy that they all have been longing for!

however this is impossible! everything "I" see CANNOT be what "you" see. at the end of the day the food goes into two different mouths and comes out of two different anuseshttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1379083715540754439 …

even if you lay on your death bed surrounded by a lifetime of friends, the most they can do is stand helplessly waving by the shore as you drift away into the ocean alone even as they physically hold your hand in theirshttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1392334858928615426 …
