Is this song about the 'incubus phenomena'?"You couldn't sleep for the awful fright That kept you up in bed lastBut curious shape shift in the dark,They vanish with the sunrise spark"https://t.co/lIL2HmrKv9https://t.co/xwzm1gzlbx

I just remembered a really old Disney movie playing with Irish tropes had a demonic shapeshifting horse in it. https://t.co/aX1qNtNrgSLooking it up, some made the same connection I had.Shape-shifting aliens? What could that be?https://t.co/u4R1C51iGS https://t.co/LAz0K7ANjY

If schizo, autism, & multiple sclerosis are related via white matter/myelin issues due to widespread brain inflammation... we should expect Diabetes Mellitus to exhibit demyelination symptoms?What is diabetic neuropathy?https://t.co/wdQF3mGwlVhttps://t.co/Ni4skuzQTo

Did you know that dynorphin seems to play a role in hallucinations and also seems to be partly responsible for breathing rhythms? Does that mean an opioid related dysfunction while sleeping could drive the incubus phenomena?https://t.co/JtQqB8rb9Ahttps://t.co/ehLymNm92b

I find this weird trend where sleep paralysis combines shadowy figures and sensation of things on your chest. If you are having trouble breathing because of a weird cytokine phenomena disrupting dynorphin signaling, it could explain it.Visceral Hallucinations can feel like sex. https://t.co/qasR0Th3UR


Nocturnal Emissions driven by a horned shape-shifting demonic presence that coincides with other immune related phenomena might explain ancient mythos like Lilith stealing men's vitality in the night. https://t.co/CobFFqmiUYhttps://t.co/Ki4W4J3qb8

Intensive fear and anxiety sensation could be tied to circadian rhythm's impact on serotonin levels. If there was a bad actor in your gut that only attacked other microbes at night, it might trigger them to release a bit serotonin to protect themselves.https://t.co/WLvmRR6eya

One of the most amazing things about hippocampal memory formation largely being spared from M.S. associated white brain matter lipid harvesting is that I can remember almost every episode of house, and enrich them with facts.https://t.co/DJoIxFjlfK

I feel like I am playing a symphony with my ideas within a sort of mental space (and grid cells).https://t.co/LUPmgXsLxC https://t.co/XtlSBoAugM


I wonder if Mozart was a synesthete."Mozart is said to have had this form of synesthesia. He said that the key of D major had a warm "orangey" sound to it, while B-flat minor was blackish." https://t.co/I5Btbj1BM0heh.https://t.co/cOmRRl0PTQ

@default_friend @alexeyguzey (fake story but illustrative) guy asks Mozart, how do I write a symphony? Mozart: you are too young to write a symphony Guy: what?! but you were writing symphonies when you were 10 years of age, and I am 21!! Mozart: true... but I didn’t have to ask anybody how to do it

I think my brain is trying to remind me of him getting syphilis or something like that. I'm actually asking myself "did Mozart see demons?"I was raised on Mozart and Beethoven.https://t.co/cA2ymzCUCVI should rewatch Amadeus.https://t.co/ZqyTotn6n7

On dancing around an idea: https://t.co/kT17tNo50M

Took some glycine around 5pm. and now I'm sleepy af.Time to see if I dream well.https://t.co/nZfgLLNbJ7

Literally directly related to circadian rhythm."As a neurotransmitter, glycine both stimulates and inhibits cells in the brain and central nervous system, affecting cognition, mood, appetite and digestion, immune function, pain perception, and sleep."https://t.co/TySXgEAAka

I had an interesting dream about a swarm of angels dancing on the head of a pin and associated it with thinking about electrical energy as swarms of electrons screaming at each other like bees ("angry pixies"), and zeus smiting a pin with lightning bolts.https://t.co/eFoJKuxWMS

In other news, I may have figured out how to create a different way of metal additive manufacturing that doesn't require creating electron beams and does away with high levels of ionizing radiation.https://t.co/NNjWR19jM1

A salt water bath conducts electricity, and if you can get tiny metal filaments (metalic silk forming lightning rods) to form on a spot heated by a laser, you can channel high levels of electricity thru the bath and weld metal together.https://t.co/xRUI1IkDCO

Electrical Discharge Machining, but for melting metal.https://t.co/Sstlx39Ovz

Agitating tiny bees in the brine forming bone-like webbing to act as a scaffold for metal deposition using the power of thor.So self-healing bricks, but for metal.https://t.co/KR547Zz0W0

Huh, someone already figured out that this might have applications in battery technology.https://t.co/fyLJmJNUGh

TL:DR: I wanna figure out how to get bacteria to build a "honey comb" out of metallic ion deposition by manipulating them with lasers, and then use that to act as the crystal forming sites for metal formation via electricity.https://t.co/oZjM0pWzLP

Adding this to the list of things to mess around with when I am healthy and have a lab.https://t.co/PD0JcFOWYk

In my college dorm, someone from electrical engineering track was spot welding things to the metal door handles using an extremely large bank of capacitors.I just wanna add salt water saturated with metal ions to feed bacteria to create sacrificial sites for lightning.

The ability to control where the electricity moves thru the aetheric brine. https://t.co/HWqceCmoKhCalling this idea the "Drontheim process" https://t.co/c7rMMdmjYb

Angry Pixies → Fae + Electrical Affinity → Metal Gremlin → Drontheim"Zee liked the modern era, with its steel and electricity, better than the old days because there was more for a Metallzauber, a gremlin, to do than build swords to kill other folk"https://t.co/EFlk3kmqog

"Human replay occurs while the brain is resting between exercises, and reverses direction after a reward has been given for making the correct choice."https://t.co/xqbV87xLM4

A planning network uses offline updating to negotiate the boundary of the speed-accuracy trade off.So go sleep on this idea for a while; the answers might come to you if you can divine the wisdom from the noise.It's your "rubber duck".https://t.co/ks1We6GfCv

I know I'm crazy, that's the difference.https://t.co/CH2Tk9n3HD

Did you know that ants stop to think about their path integration in a similar way as humans "resting" to update their mental state. My current mental theory is the movement system and thinking system use the same 'bayes' bits in the brain.https://t.co/0CBIeF2rMb

Sleeping is just a really advanced form of meditation.https://t.co/doVr4e4h13

Avoiding problems b/c you are anxious about them and don't want to put in elbow grease is one thing. But there are valid reasons to avoid a problem. Those nagging problems that sleep in your subconscious for years can be quite fruitful.Did you know Feynman recorded his dreams?

Ah, a different thread there mentioned soft ontologies, which also contained the idea I was looking for all along."Free associating mind vomit."And so, my answer to this question, with a built in example ala the last few tweets in this thread.https://t.co/GSP0s7riFJ https://t.co/TsI6MJp9oN


Free associating mind vomit?Two skills I've honed to deal with Multiple Sclerosis associated Lethologica end up being perfectly attune to dream interpretation: ad-lib & word association.I have to interpret my own damn thoughts half the time.https://t.co/5G7altyQL0

My muse speaks in riddles, and I have to solve them to figure out what the heck my thinking bits actually meant.It says "fire, hot, burn" when I mean "cook"It says "bed, pillow, warm" when I mean "sleep"."Bullshitting until the truth comes out."https://t.co/sBBf2W8nKZ

"a kind of phase transition in which [...] language crystallizes out abruptly as grammar rules are intuited [...] a language switches from seeming like a random jumble of words to a highly structured communication system that is rich in information." https://t.co/R1hzAmx0t8

Ah, not "super-man", but super-power.I was trying to summon this idea in the context of making ideas.My concepts are a jumbled mess.https://t.co/J2wsq0zuW5

Pathfinding, Wayfinding.If analogies are the core of cognition, creating useful compressions as shortcuts between concepts seems like they'd be useful, huh?You'd think that, but it ends up all shit.https://t.co/6uWpEsToLc

Why does Harley Quinn always call the Joker "Puddin"?https://t.co/4V08t4JL86

@ChielMuurling A high level description of my idea is that I'm steelmanning Freud's 'wish fulfillment' concept on dream reading thru a lens of Karl Friston's models of 'free energy'. But more litterally improving acivation potentials in hippocampus thru gut microbiome related neuralchemistry.

I think I'm encoding meaning into songs now. I was doing it on purpose for a while, but now I am accidentally. Memories tied to a particular sound scape.All songs I hear as metaphors about longing now make me think of trying to hallucinate a succubus.https://t.co/vaVd72XEXi

Does the spirit of madness spit or swallow?"I, I can't get these [engrams] out of my mindAnd some kind of [corrupt signal] has started to evolveI, I tried so hard to let you goBut some kind of [strange attractor] is swallowing me whole, yeah"🎶https://t.co/edrRE0sKVH

If I eat ice cream (source of glycine?) before bed, I get really vivid dreams now. Last night I had a bunch I can remember. one of them involved being chased by giant spiders.When I woke, kept seeing part of my room morph into a spider.Adventure Time. https://t.co/muCvmnPLB2

"I daresay you haven't had much practice, [...] When I was younger, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've bullshit'ed as many as six impossible things before breakfast." — Red Queenhttps://t.co/l73vg7D6TS

My superpower is to bullshit faster with more energy. The trick is that the audience is in on the game, and the fun part is finding novel ideas in the adjacent possible of wisdom.https://t.co/RtXmJGF0yi https://t.co/4BGvXdOc3c


Exploring an idea space with non-judgmental riffing as a sort of fun ad-lib experience between friends? One of the fastest ways to reach a frontier of thought between everyone.https://t.co/HsbVYhp3v2

I make connections between things over time.https://t.co/502pSunboR

That explains a lot. Alcohol makes me friendlier/receptive to others. I already cope with not recognizing expressions on the daily. An enhanced locus on bottom up sensory processing (e.g. being drunk) may be enhancing my skills at experiencing people's emotions? Hard to test.

The whole 4th season is a giant parable about trauma, unity, and forgiveness. Literal and metaphorical.They use aspects of WWII across cultures as the backdrop, but in the context of family bonds. Its really fascinating.Even ends in a wedding! (two, if you squint)

Colors I don't understand.https://t.co/x2TjIulmD4

I watched GITS Laughing Man OVA earlier today, and for some reason the bloop idea lit up gold. And now I found a direct influence between aspects of the show and a cult while trying to highlight the power of internet to create cult-like reality tunnels.https://t.co/rDCtIjOUBp

Colors... No. Emotions?Emotions I can't understand?https://t.co/p91ckulY3r

Do gut bacteria give us access to emotions thru a form of embodied cognition? https://t.co/wNWnSxgCuX


The word that lit up gold was "kiss".It's the microbe that I think are missing? Is that what my brain is dancing around?https://t.co/eHdlt3YoXQ

WWI glowed when I read this:https://t.co/qv9oasuEB4 https://t.co/nuOmgQTtF0
