Mastodawn

We are of each an unsocial, taciturn disposition, unwilling to speak, unless we expect to say something that will amaze the whole room, and be handed down to posterity with all of the eclat of a proverb.

Jane Austen (1775-1817) English author
Pride and Prejudice, ch. 18 [Elizabeth] (1813)

There's a fine line between self-preservation & selfishness. If only there were an easier way to see it before we cross it.

Or maybe there isn't a difference at all & we're all just 100% selfish creatures. Been accused of ulterior motives for altruistic actions before, so why do I even bother? #ego

"You’re Autistic, aren’t you?
You think your guys were, McLuhan and Campbell?
.
Even if they were, they are drawing upon and interpreting a world of thought that post dates truly ancient thinking and predates the modern discovery of neurodiversity"

My guy is James Joyce, #Irish author of Finnegans Wake year 1924. Page 3.

In the message you JUST replied to, look close and you will see me reference "Tower of Babel" I asserted #Context as I have the OPPOSITE of more common autism #ContextBlindness https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caetextia

RE: " discovery of #neurodiversity " #NeuroDiverse

The DISCOVERY is VERY OLD. #Language #Communications

>>>>> Marshall McLuhan #Canadian is everything about ALL FORMS of communications. Not just oral, not just hand gestures and body language eye contact ( All #Autism issues ) - but ALL forms of communications. Writing, audio, electronic, etc. <<<

RE: " discovery of neurodiversity "

The #Metaphor of The Tower of Babel story is recorded in Genesis 11:1–9 - in the #Torah is #BrainDiversity the experience of people not being able to translate #BrainToBrain

"The Tower of Babel story is between 2,500 and 4,200 years old, depending on whether you are looking at the written date, the estimated time of the events, or the broader ancient oral traditions."

This is describing #MindBlindness and other #AutismSpectrumDisorder diversity #ADHD #ASD

It is not a modern concept, and people killing and murdering and war with each other over brain to brain #Egomania conflicts is not new. Husband wife murder-suicide, etc over language #Ego conflicts.

Think about a school playground filled with third graders.

Think about the conversations you'd hear, and how power would play out.

Think about who gets to initiate play, and who gets to make decisions.
