Notes by TK
Kyroot to :04. Picture the brain as a silent, restless oceanic sphere always in motion: Wet Brain. The Dry Brain is like a thin electrically charged atmosphere surrounding the WB-sphere. The DB treats the WB like a crude, uncouth, illiterate relative whose behavior it must continually explain, but on the basis that its explanations must be made up on the run, willy-nilly, without recourse or relief: it is the making up of ‘you’. E.g., “I’m not responsible, it is the fault of the environment” vs. genetics, i.e., the WB causal roiling.
Connected to advertising euphemisms: E.g., banks—“there’s more to banking than money”; army: “peace is our profession”. The DB makes similar non-related proclamations of purpose, plans and interests not harbored by the WB whatsoever. Moreover, the DB denies interests germane to the WB. This all amounts to DB attempting to change WB via talk. Talk about “what kind of a guy I am” is commentary/confession of DB’s struggles and losses to the WB. From a more complex view all talk is talk between the WB and DB, exclusively concerned with the difference between them.
“Don’t let them get you down”: “them” = potential energy drain position. Brain Smile = energy win position.
