[thebrainboys-co]

Hello Internet B) Welcome to our ask blog. We're a group of Introjects from/related to The Boys YT channel (Not the show pls don't ask abt the show idk anything about the TV show 😭)

Just as extra info, an Introject is an alter from a system who is based off a fictional character (Fictive) OR a real existing/previously existing person (Factive).

Anyway, lol, here's us:

(Names with stars next to them are from our friend's system :} Also, more of us may be added whenever they show up ig)

Some extra stuff for context:

Important thing! You may see doubles of people like Dub and Josh, or Kevin and Dez. This is completely normal! Sometimes with systems, you get two of the same people. It doesn't make one any less of a person than the other. 🫶

Those with Brushes next to them have two forms they can appear as, but will usually look like the Brush, as that's their default.

Please censor the words c@ndy and n3€dle, they're triggering to Mully and Dub respectively. Try not to mention c@nd!es in general too, unfortunate as that is. (ik it sounds silly as shit but we're so serious.)

Most posts will probably be more light hearted, cause this is just for fun.

Guess I should also add that we DO actually have commissions, so there's the info. :p

Rules:

NOO FAKECLAIMING!!! Please for the love of whatever fruity ass fucking god is in the sky, be respectful. :( Again, this is for fun, and is also a safe space, so we really don't want any kind of discourse or invalidation here. Though, it's not wrong to ask genuine questions! This IS an ask blog, so if you're curious about something, ask away!

No racism, homophobia, transphobia, bigotry, etc. Kinda obvious :/ don't come in here being a big fat fucking jerk.

Do not use any slurs! Some are heavily uncomfortable with them, so just keep 'em out of the asks.

NO NSFW. Please keep these asks SFW, idk how many of you grimey Tumblrs are minors.. >_>

Posts will be tagged appropriately :p Asks for certain people will have their symbol and/or name. Normal posts will have #BoysPosting or #BrainTalks.

Anyway, welcome lol (⁠｡⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)⁠✧ Enjoy

All these things are true of your voluntary thoughts too. Your thoughts are between you and you. If you don't enjoy having the thoughts you have, you can try to change them, but as long as they exist solely in your head, they're value-neutral.

I was always more ashamed of my secret desires than I was of my intrusive thoughts. I hated my intrusive thoughts because they were intrusive and very unpleasant. But I feared much more that someone would judge me for the fantasies I chose to return to over and over again.

I'll always be grateful for the fic exchange community that made it safe to write and read the weird, wildly problematic smut that called to me, and for AO3 giving us ways to share it so people who want it can find it and people who don't want it don't have to see it. Knowing I'm not alone helps me feel so much more at ease with myself, and so much less worried that there's something uniquely fucked up about me.

Teaching children thinking bad thoughts about someone is the same thing as murdering that person is fucked up. 

Thought crime doesn’t exist. No one has ever been harmed or killed by someone thinking negative thoughts about them. 

You know what has harmed people though? Teaching them they are evil for things they can’t control. Especially those who have intrusive thoughts. 

Here’s for everyone who has been taught their thoughts make them evil.

Intrusive thoughts are not your secret desires. 

They are involuntary. 

You don’t need to be ashamed of them. 

They will pass.

You are not committing taboo. 

No one can read your mind.

No one will ever know what’s in your thoughts unless you feel like telling them.

No one can judge you for what you are thinking, whether voluntarily or involuntarily.

Your thoughts are private

You are not a bad person.

The brains formation is highly dependent on its environment. The more control we have over our environments the more we control our nueronal network.

Ryu's Rising Sign

He's a Cancer Sun with Scorpio Rising and Sagittarius Moon

Yes it makes sense since he loves to travel and yes, intensity and mastery thanks to his wandering Spirit alongside with satsui no hado thing.

Change my mind...

What really surprised me is that there's an accuracy for him being a Mars 8th house Gemini. It's also a sexual house yet Ryu is a celibate wandering warrior, it's also he's having a struggle of power within him which is an evil intent or Satsui-No-Hadou .. noted Gemini isn't solely for talking and braintalk but rather a duality, which is also fit him most to that category. Same thing with his Venus air sign Gemini. Again, he's nowhere have an interest in love life. But possibly, I can say, he'll be in a verge of transformation once it happens in a different world as for Ryu in terms of friendships, etc... but mostly he's an intuitive person per se. And yes, he's very good at understanding in a psychological level besides spiritual level.

Dr. Daniele Ganser: Deutschland und die USA - Markus Hofmann - Braintalk

Ist es gut für Deutschland, blind den USA zu folgen? Warum haben die USA den Frieden in Istanbul sabotiert, als Russland und die Ukraine im März 2022 die Waffen niederlegen wollten? Über diese und andere Fragen sprach der Keynote-Speaker Markus Hofmann aus München mit dem Schweizer Historiker Daniele Ganser. Das Gespräch wurde am 16. Januar 2024 aufgezeichnet.

2018 First Talk

Want to talk?

What do you want me to say?

I don’t know, anything is fine. Talking is kind of what were good at right?

Were good at talking people up or down, left and right. We are not good at talking with people.

What does that mean?

It means that when we want to get a point across, or making people see our side of things, or simply want to prove that we are right, we can easily do so with a silver bladed tongue.

God, that sounds awful.

Ya well some people think it’s great when it isn’t against them and instead backs them up.

What if we just talk to people honestly.

We’re too honest to do that.

Isn’t that a good thing?

It should be. Sadly we don’t live in that sort of good world.

A world where everyone tells the truth? I’m pretty sure there's a movie like that, and if I remember right that world was an awful place.

Heh. “The invention of lying”. Ya, that world was pretty fucked up, but those people weren’t just telling the truth all the time, they were saying every thought to enter there head.

Does that mean with holding information is lying?

No. False information is lying. Telling the truth, or a partial truth, or not correcting someone and just keeping the truth silent, those are all honest still. At least for us.

Why would it be any different for anyone else? What's to stop someone from saying that what we do is lie?

Think about it for a minute. If no one could ever lie, and everyone had to work with the truth when talking to one another. Think about how clever the human race would be. Think and about how smart the human race would be.

We would be Wise, not Smart.

What's the difference?

Smart means someone has a lot of knowledge, and knowledge is just facts recorded as they are and on their own. Wisdom is the ability to manipulate facts and information to make decisions and perform tasks.

Smart doesn't mean someone who has a lot of knowledge.

Oh come on. We call the guy who can name every element on the periodic table off the top of his head smart. But what do you call the guy who figured out how to convince his friends to do his work for him?

An ass

Not the point

You would call him smart too. Smart can mean being wise or being knowledgeable.

Hmm, I guess.

Anyway, getting back to what I was saying originally, we’re too honest to talk to be straightforward.

I still don’t get why that's a bad thing.

Because people aren't as honest as we when talking to someone straightforward. You wear your emotions on your sleeve and suddenly everyone around you thinks your crazy. Hell we live in a world where it’s considered brave to step up and be honest about your emotions for someone.

But, that is brave.

Only because we have such a taboo against being actually honest about stuff. Some of the most honest things in the world are satiric in nature. But wouldn’t it be great if for once it wasn’t. Like, if for once when someone likes you, they could just say “I like you”. Or if someone you like turns you down, they say “I’m sorry I’m just not interested in you in that way.” but we can’t do that. Instead we have to use this fucking code language that apparently everyone but us got a how to manual on. EXCUSE ME UNIVERSE, I SEEMED TO HAVE MISSED THE WHOLE CLASS ON FLIRTING AND HIDDEN MESSAGES IN CONVERSATION, CAN YOU GIVE ME RUN DOWN, OR LIKE A HOW TO. MAYBE A YOUTUBE VIDEO.... For god's sakes.

Did that feel good to get that off your chest?

Ya

What’s gotten into you?

I don’t know

Yes you do

I don’t

Do

Don’t

DO!

DON’T!

YOU FUCKING DO!

I’M TIRED OF BEING ALONE.

...

I’M TIRED OF FEELING LIKE I HAVE SOMETHING TO GIVE SOMEONE AND NOT HAVING ANYONE TO GIVE IT TO. I’M TIRED OF FEELING LIKE THERE SOMETHING I DESPERATELY NEED AND NO ONE AROUND ME BEING WILLING TO GIVE IT TO ME. I’M A DYING MAN HERE. DYING BECAUSE NO ONE WILL GIVE ME THE MEDICATION I NEED.

...

I’m just tired of feeling cold

... when you were saying something to give, you meant...

Oh for fucks... LOVE. I have love, the likes of which you can scarcely imagine, and rage the likes of which you could never measure. If you do not let me release one, I will indulge the other.

[originalangelkitten]

me: sucks at every tiny basic task: not be able to literally take a shower, eat properly, cleaning the house - like anything besides staring at a wall blankly!

brain: shhh honey, you can always kill yourself! Like right now...

me: thx, dude! Thats really comforting, what would i do without you!

brain: see, im always here for you baby and solve all your problems and now take that knife over there....

When my kid was a baby, I had to repeat to myself, "The point is not for the baby to get the toy. The point is for the baby to make the effort to get the toy, because that teaches them about reaching and rolling and grabbing." It never occurred to me that my kid might someday internalize that and use it to motivate themself to learn better and build their skills on their own, and I'm a little weepy now.

OP, if there was an adult in your life who stepped back and let you make the effort so you learned that the effort was the point, I hope you're able to tell them you carry that with you. It's going to make such a difference for you in college and beyond.

it's so fucking frustrating to be in college and know everyone uses chatgpt and to be tempted by it constantly while also knowing intellectually that it doesn't work and it's a bad idea. like, i hang out in the library a lot, and i see people using chatgpt on assignments almost every day. and i know it isn't a good way to learn, because it's not really "artificial intelligence" so much as it is an auto text generator. and it gives you wrong information or badly worded sentences all the time. but every week i stare down assignments i don't want to do and i think man. if only i could type this prompt into a text generator and have it done in 10 minutes flat. and i know it wouldn't work. it wouldn't synthesize information from the text the way professors want, it wouldn't know how to answer questions, it just spits out vaguely related words for a couple paragraphs. but knowing my classmates get their work done in 10 minutes flat with it while i fight every ounce of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in my body is infuriating.

[i-live-in-the-woods-now]

I'm so high right now

The brain can get so lost in what it's doing, that it literally had to build itself a body that homes organisms that react with parts of itself to remind it to seek energy, and help get the body shelter.

How do you get more work done faster?

You make more things that can help you.

So you make babies that grow up, with enough variation for new and evolving ideas.

More brains. Brains with the ability to recognize other brains. Other life.

And I kkow that plants don't have "brains" but they're discovering more and more evidence for something similar using other means. Like how is all. Plant life now just some. Big brain anyway.

Ugh. The Creation of Adam was right. God really is just a brain.

[livelydreamofutopia-blog]

What should be said:

others: what’s wrong with her? doesn’t she have friends? Why is she always alone?

me: hey guys. so first of all,

fyi I do have friends. they are the best friends one could ever wish for, and I’m immeasurably thankful for having them.. so that’s not the point! (even if you guys wish it was). the point is that while being alone, I’m not lonely. There are so many thoughts, memories, songs, yeah even people inside my head.. there’s not a chance to feel lonely.

others: are you saying that there are voices inside your head?? I knew it, she’s a psycho!

me: everybody has these voices. some call it intuition, others god.

The difference between me and other people is that I listen to these voices. not only do I listen, but I reply to them.. while others don’t like the feeling of being controlled by their mind, I treat these voices with respect, because they are strong and more powerful than one could ever imagine. the only way to regain control over the mind is to befriend it so that it is willing to do you good.

others: are you saying you like these crazy moments?

me: exactly. I see it as some

sort of quality time. while others put some masks on their faces and call it “self care”, I take care of my mind by listening, asking, and feeling what it has to say..

others: that means you like obeying the orders of your mind..

me: wait! who said I obey?

I’m listening to it but as I said, it is a conversation with mutual participation. I can agree or disagree..

I can do whatever I want to as long as I give reasons which (in the best case) lead my mind to accepting decisions against its will.

others: so you’re talking to yourself?? eww that’s strange.

me: I don’t have to talk.

but back to the point:

I’m not lonely when I’m alone. In fact, I need this time alone. I enjoy it. I’m not sad. I don’t wish people were by my side. There is a time for being with friends, which I enjoy and love.. and there’s a time for being alone. and I wouldn’t want to miss one of the two.

thanks for listening guys.

I hadn't thought of "have you done any writing lately" as engaging with my special interests, or as stimming, but maybe it's both.

those “what to do when you feel like shit” masterlists are really cool and helpful. but. if you’re autistic it’s worth keeping in mind the ways that autism might impact your needs. so as well as checking in on food/sleep/hygiene/etc:

are you feeling overstimulated right now? is there any stimulation you can remove from your environment?

are you feeling understimulated right now? is there any stimulation you could add to your environment?

have you engaged with one of your special interests lately? is there a way you can do that?

have you been masking a lot lately? is there something small you can do to make you feel more like yourself?

have you been suppressing stims? is there a stim you could do right now that might make you feel better?

I’ve found that, as an autistic person, the above is just as likely to be the cause of Weird Bad Feelings as the generic lack of food and sleep! just something to keep in mind

Trauma is a specific sensory stimuli that can cause a person to experience an incredibly strong response to it. The subconscious mind and the police it holds, dictates your perception of sensory stimuli. If the subconscious mind holds the belief of a particular stimulus, then the perception of that stimulus, Will be that it is beneficial to the body/self and subsequent response may be one of warmth and, or loving. The subconscious mind stores the sum total of everything you have ever thought and believed. . . . #thoughtsbecomethings #braintalk #brainhealth #brainactivity #subconsciousmind #subconscious #subconsciousthinkers #subconsciousprogramming #subconsciousprogramming #subconciousreprogramming #sherrygideons #mindfulnesspractice #consciousnessshift #selfmastery #selfmade #journeyoflife #consciousliving #awareness #awarenessiskey #selfawakening #lifecoaching #dreamcoach #imaging #manifestyourdreams #createyourlife #createyourreality #mastery #lifemastery #leadershipcoaching #higherself (at Phoenix, Arizona) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRtzltdNURD/?utm_medium=tumblr

The brain is constantly forming, strengthening and changing networks of connected neurons. The brains structure is dependent on its environment. Changing the brains environment can change the brain. What changes and how big those changes are is dependent on millions of complicated mitigating circumstances.

Our reality is what we tell ourselves. The internal voice and dialogue that is in between our ears and inside our brains. What kind of stories, the scripts, and sentences do we play and replay in our brains 🧠 that set us up for success or sabotages us?

Want a better life? Then, shift your brain and your mindset from FEAR, worry, and anxiety to growth, abundance, and confidence. The person you can change is YOU.
