No. It means there are some people who literally incapable of constructing non-verbal sentences in their heads. Like they've never thought the words inside their head "do I want to do X or do I want to do Y?" Instead they just act on one or the other.

Interesting. I know a few people who seem incapable of 'internal' thinking. For them 'thinking' seems to require talking. Silent contemplation seems impossible for them.

"Instead they just act on one or the other." - I call these 'dog' people. They are operating on the level of a German Shepard. Driven by instinct and emotion, never able to form a plan, just execute an impulse. Not really fully human.

That's not fair to German Shepherds, and I'm not joking.

The dumbest humans are less contemplative than the smarter dogs.

Point taken. OK, beagles then.

Anyone with a persistent inner voice experience it shutting off after a certain amount of alchohol?

If I drink two beers on a completely empty stomach, I experience about 15-30 minutes of blissful silence. For NPCs, it turns off their insecurity and allows them to be more "social". If you don't have social insecurities, alcohol actually makes you less social because it slows down your brain.

Unfortunately, alcohol has many side effects, so I see it as short-term "chemical meditation" instead of a permanent solution. When I don't want to feel its effects as strongly, I drink on a full stomach.

This must be why I never took to alcohol despite being surrounded by it, the best conversations I ever have/had I was there, mind and soul and logic. I want to be there and on point. I swear I have the opposite problem that people with "anxiety" have, where I'm desperately craving stimuli, or a spacecraft autocorrecting its angle second be second, I cant figure how to get less of the bad and more of the good if my judgement ain't there. I trust it even if I don't, because what other choice do any of us have, because its god given and all we will ever have, so polish it out in the open proudly and EVERYTHING gets easier. Becomes more approachable, the roads and hills rise to meet you.

I think Wapo is trying to make Trump look like an NPC. Their audience on one hand is highly educated but on the other hand is the bottom 2% of the barrel of gullibility.

Highly pitiful, I suggest the photo editor learn other digital skills soon.

Always a fun gamble with these 'NPC University' cartoons.
You know they're going to 'rage-quit' & you'll have to turn your speakers down as a result, yet you're not quite certain when the REEEsterics will take place.
