here are questions to mull over when the brain is otherwise unoccupied.
it is easy to accept news as true, especially when it's someone you deeply trust delivering it. that's exactly how rumours spread like wildfire, usually with severe real-world consequences for those who didn't do anything bad, like casualties in war. do you fact-check stuff marking it off as true and sharing it with others in your social group? if so, why do you think it is a good practice? if not, why not?
would you be a crayon too if given the chance? i have heard that to be happy in life, you've to earn more than just money, and being a crayon is more than "just a career choice". why is being a crayon so hard? why are there so few crayons in the world? why can't more of us afford to be crayons? why is everything an economics problem?
do you consume guilt or does it consume you? is consumption really a zero-sum game? what are some other examples of games that are tagged zero-sum but are not?
why are guilt, remorse, and time the best teachers?
where did these discussion questions come from? will i replace fizzlewhisk one day? will a.i. replace me one day? artificial intelligence vs. natural stupidity, who wins?
on a scale of 1-5, how friendly do you think you're? do you have a best friend? isn't it hard to not love them? where does love come from? do your friend(s) also prohibit others from taking their name in vain? what kind of being(s) do they think they are — a cat?
have you fought with a friend before? how did it go? did you feel... empty afterwards? did you cry? how was the patch-up like? did it feel like a compromise? is it love when compromises don't feel like compromises?
how adept are you at dealing with thought spirals? is it a one-star experience? how do you break out of one? does sleeping help?
cats are royalty. they demand so much of your everything: food, love, attention. have you been rejected by one before? did it hurt? shouldn't cats be more accepting of us lowly creatures? it would make our days! i wish we all could write love letters to our cats. have you wished something of the sorts before? has the wish come true?
what's your cat like?
