    I think that book will be even more relevant to you, he underwent the therapy in his 50s. It's never too late to start having new life experiences. :) I'm in my 40s and I feel like I'm still just starting to figure any of this out.

    Everything you never heard about me is true

    Yes but how many masks am I wearing?

    On this forum I don't think "too weird" is a thing. :)

    Yeah it sounds like the neural pathways that control that are shut down pretty hard for you. But you can run some level of simulation based on programming. You're obviously capable of communicating via text so the situation is not entirely without hope. I know it is rough suffering from the...

    Ahh, yeah, that's a rough one. Can you sing, beatbox, or rap? Different neural pathways control music than speech. Maybe you can repurpose them and make a lasting impression on people in the process? :)

    One of the things I realized is that if you are true to yourself and you say anything that is "wrong" that person wasn't going to be a good match for you anyway. It helps to do less talking and let them drive the conversation. Learning the cadence of stand up comedians and the way they deliver...

    This depends entirely on your definition of luck. :)

    Yes dolphins seem to have adapted to the perfect life. They get to swim all day every day, eat nothing but sashimi, and for entertainment they mate, jump out of the water, and fight sharks.

    If we could break through the creative barrier I feel like the Octopod races would have many interesting things to say.

    How and why do you have surveillance images of me? Am I under review by the Inquisition?

    Sounds like a good spot. Where I am is more bugs and angry humans who are addled by various dangerous intoxicants. There is excellent quality coffee though, so it's not a total loss. There is a small chance Earthians that I interact with. They can be fun. I have found that the best regional...

    The crushing and endless lonleliness is pretty overwhelming a lot of the time. It significantly detracts from my ability to get things done and mimics the effects of chronic pain to some extent. No solution presents itself since people have to choose you even if you choose them and often they...

    Everything you never heard about me is true

    Every last word. I've been visiting this planet for a while now, and while it certainly has some charm to it, most of the people here are very strange. They say one thing and mean another, and want you to think they mean a third thing. They react emotionally when they should react logically...
