I went down the list of every phrase and heard each one cleanly apart from the last one.

It’s very interesting. It’s like a piece of writing where all the words are deliberately spelled incorrectly but we can still comprehend it (Or we think we can ).

And we wonder why we have a hard time discussing intimate and personal topics like politics and god and philosophy. :laughing:

We hear what we are able to hear and speak what we are able to say and linguistics and cognition are not equitable.

That cracks me up. It’s Monday morning too. This is just freaky. :rofl:

See, I don’t think there’s a choice.

I think people have limitations and those limitations get exposed when they swim too far from the shore of their knowledge and experience.

It’s really why I enjoy reading and conversing with people way smarter than me. I don’t mind rolling with black belts as a blue belt, even though chances are sooner or later, I’ll tap out because can’t keep up.

It’s humbling.

In the very least. Transcendent consciousness bending biological imperatives, for some folks.

I liked the lights; I have astigmatism. Up and to the left like I was back to a black hole. Never got that from a book. :idunno:
