    The fact that you’re basing your desire on anyone else’s opinions at all means you are not based. Next.

      The fact that you don’t take other people’s opinions into account for desire may suggest you lack Theory of Mind. You should get that looked into. Other people’s dispositions toward something are one of the best heuristics available for quickly learning about that thing.

        Snakes and spiders? Yes. Flavours of icecream? No. If you’re treating people you might be attracted to more like snakes and spiders, that unfortunate for you.

        the sooner humanity realises some things you like as an individual others don’t like, the sooner we can all start enjoying life much much more. far too many people don’t have fun because they think it’ll make them look bad, and that’s so sad

        do what you want to do, be who you want to be, be proud of being weird - because we are all fucking weird - and don’t worry about what other people think… just be you and enjoy it

          humanity knows this. That’s why I said heuristic. There’s not enough time to figure everything out by ourselves, that’s why we operate well as a team.

          That’s what I’m gunning for yeah, but it’s probably not long enough.
