I love this. I always like to assume the dialogue / script as written is perfect. As a percormer, I don’t have to judge its authenticity. That’s what I’m here bring.

Ex. from Breaking Bad:

“Have you given any thought to sending him on a trip to Belize?”

-Saul Goodman

Silly line. GRIM meaning.

What a fantastic pair of games. I wish I could mind-wipe and play both games all over again for the first time. Glad you enjoyed them!

- but at least in a cerebral space where being bodiless is the norm, it’s easier to feel euphoria and excitement.

This potential discovery may be a key to being less clumsy / accident prone and developing the proprioception needed for physical coordination - like yoga or dance!

- like reality had a backstage I could allllmooost peek behind.

After posting this, I stumbled upon Depersonalization / Derealization - and w/ your mention of it, sounds like it’s worth looking into.

Out-of-Body means somatic detachment, too - joy as second-hand and more cerebral. Def a QoL issue-

Wow, thank you for sharing, Jett! Brains are def quirky. I’m endlessly fascinated with “normal” experiences not, in fact, being the norm.

Kid-you, too? The world never felt “real” even as a young kid - like, I would laugh uncontrollably (& disruptively) at how absurd and surreal everything felt -

I have a similar attitude of not expecting the role, though I like to frame it as, “I have been booked for this one day to play this character, and then my work here is done. If I get called upon to play this character again, it will be a new chance to play.”

It’s a game-changing perspective!

AMAZING example!!! That was the only line of dialogue I recognized from the series before I started watching it.

Poor Licka Tesla (under the care of Eata Jimsok) thought they lost because their team wasn’t good enough and the other team was better.

If they sign this, they want to know if they get a trophy, and feels good the collector prolly knows what it’s like to suck so much.

There are so many different ways that could go, but YES

And I also can’t look at a perpetually boxed toy without thinking of Stinky Pete from Toy Story. I didn’t buy packaging - I bought what’s inside.

I’m the same way! I like things in packaging, and I tend to keep old boxes - but the key point for me is to *use* them!

Don’t play with your toys and your games - keep them in the box! Those are Collectors’ Items!

Hold onto them long enough, and someday you can sell them at a high price (to someone else who intends to hold on to them long enough to sell at an even higher price)!
