    I still think the coolest part is bringing up this fact whenever someone wants to feel like boasting how theyve exhausted their scientific research and insist about how consciousness is made up from the brain and how the brain is the entirety of our lived experience….

    Then I point out to them the plethora of sea creatures living life without a brain and in fact there have been studies on people whom they discovered had much if not most of their brain missing and still didn’t notice. Lived a perfectly normal life. Still had a consciousness. Still experienced love, happiness and fulfillment

    Anyways I digress. Our mind is not whatever our brain state is which is pretty fricken cool.
