    If you want to ask me a specific question on some topic, you're welcome to do so.
    To know my way of thinking, read what I wrote just now on AncientBoi's blog.

    If I had to sum up my thinking, I'd say it's a"not-thought". You will find me in the silence between two thoughts in succession. [Having read this, almost everyone lost patience, and left...].
    I'll explain with an improvised poem (If there was anyone left to read...):

    Nikokaro
    "between leave rustling , and a distant cry, a car darting makes the office windows vibrate.
    Clock ticking and keyboard clicking underline ITS presence,
    the only truth, like it or not."

    I was verbose; fewer words were enough, none even better....

    Consider each day as a "newborn child", that is, always different and always unique, having nothing in common with the previous one. It is because of language, which imprisons the always new and moving reality with its categories and names, that we see everything as a repetition of the already experienced.

    Every day is like a new baby, just born. It is we, out of habit, convenience, conformity and prisoners of language, who give it the same name to everyone.

    I've always called it avatar, pfp I don't know what it is. You all use a lot of acronyms and abbreviations here that I often don't know or understand. I have many more animated avatars in store that will amaze you all.

    Your comment is so succinct and airtight, that it says everything and nothing. Hard to tell if it's a confirmation to my quote, a rebuttal or has nothing to do with it, as it would seem to my poor intellect...hehehe.

    It was an answer to your quote. I tend to try and analyze your quotes, and then reinterpret them. Whats behind the Veil of sanity IS the main body of the quote

    "Confusion aligns onto itself"
    So it's a refutation of that saying. You mean the confusion is only about itself, it has nothing to do with sanity, and it's not a magnifying glass of normalcy. That's how I interpreted it. Did I get that right?
    Nikokaro
    If I post a message praising the madness now, I would be overwhelmed with likes. Many here have a completely false conception of insanity...

    ...a fanciful, mythologized, and completely unreal conception of it. If you were really faced with it, with its rawness, filth, vulgarity, shamelessness, violence your legs would give out, you'd piss your pants or, at most, you'd run away with your tail between your legs.
    At best, you would turn away and change your ways, continuing to dream of a positive folly of your own creation and liking.
