What voice do they use? Do they refer to themselves in the third or first person? Do they even have one? What songs are stuck in their heads? What intrusive memory keeps them up at odd hours?

sometimes if i need to sort some things out iāll talk to myself in the mirror and pretend a smart friend of mine or general cool person who can read my mind is probing me with questions. othertimes iāll just completely nathan fielder and map out social encounters and try out different conversations to see which ones go best. or maybe i just see what punchlines i can get out of my recent days so i can later ācasually and spontaneouslyā say them. wtv way is most helpful to you spending time with yourself is good š

my brain doesnāt bookmark questions like that, so I would have to reference a list or something.
most of my questions are centered around asking people to expand on things that are brought up in live discussion, creating a space for them to be vulnerable and share deep shit with me, etc.

Look at them and notice something that they actively chose today. Easy ones are like clothes, bags, jewlery, makeup or whatever. But youād probably have even better luck with like if theyāre holding a shopping bag or a book or a cup of coffee or the keychain on their keys. idk those are just the examples I thought of. But basically thatās something intentional, so thatās something they will have thoughts/feelings/opinions on. Ask a question or make a comment that requires them to reveal that. Like a question you would want someone in your life to ask you about something that you put energy towards, yk? Like for me I always want to talk to people about books Iāve read or that theyve read. Or when Im holding a food or drink I probably could talk about why I wanted that.
But the most important part dude. Is to gauge reaction after that. If they wanna talk more then yay. If not, you gotta let it go donāt push. Itās a them thing, not a you thing.

I really cannot describe how comforting it is to know that whenever I'm hungry I have 3 full taperwares of stewed black beans just sitting in my fridge.

I haven't done this yet, but I'm about to and I'm sort of giddy about it! My high school? The Dairy Queen parking lot? The strip mall where I got stopped by a cop for 'not turning my headlights on fast enough?' The makeout point that abuts the grocery store? Good lord there's so much to see! Please understand these places made me who I am!! There's a whole part of me you haven't met yet!
