This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Talking to yourself is not an uncommon way to self regulate and such. Anon took that to the next level. I'm not sure if I should be concerned or impressed

If these guys are so starved for sex, I don't understand why they don't just fuck each other.

What's more manly than fucking another dude? You can even tag team, or flip a coin on who's going to be the top. Or just a simple brojob.

You're getting a nut, and you're helping your fellow bros. What's the problem?

Edit: inserted "don't" in the obvious place.

Judging by some of the vrchat threads I've seen Anon is way ahead of you on this

Autosexual and imaginary

However, if you want a trip down a rabbit hole, what this is talking about is essentially a tulpa.

Now, I'm not saying one way or another that tulpas have any use, or even that they're anything that represents anything that matters outside of the self. But it is a practice that people engage in, so it isn't totally fake, no matter what the opinion about it beyond that is.

> be a brony

> remembers that tulpas exist

That said, Jackie Chan tulpa will always be hilarious

I went down this rabbit hole years ago. I'm 100% convinced God is a tulpa.

[–] TheSlad@sh.itjust.works 27 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Same, it just so happened while i was in a creative writing class in college and in my final paper i took wild left turn and went on a rant about how Christians who think god or jesus talk to them actually just have tulpas. It was supposed to be a paper about a poem by langston hughes...

I got a C.

Tulpas my beloved. When I was a kid I believed that all supernatural/religious deities were real based on some degree of human belief. This was definitely heavily informed by Rick Riordan though lol

[–] Charzard4261@programming.dev 4 points 3 weeks ago

I was the same! I think it was the Egyptian inspired series where one of the characters asked about what happens when people who don't believe in anything die. Even though I don't remember the exact answer, the feeling of oblivion has stuck with me ever since.

I'd still like to believe that all the gods are actually having a giant battle for supremacy though lol.

The first rule of dabbling with Tulpas is DO NOT dabble with Tulpas.

The second rule of dabbling with Tulpas is that everything they say and do is a lie and a trick. If there are any benevolent entities out there,.they will never, ever engage with you.

[–] OccultIconoclast@reddthat.com 13 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

The third rule of tulpamancy is that the word "tulpa" is culturally appropriated - the modern use of the word has very little in common with the Buddhist tradition, especially in why it's done and what sorts of system members are created. The new, culturally sensitive word is parogen. It means "intentionally created".

Further terminology:
Endogenic system - a head with multiple people in it that was created by its own actions
Traumagenic system - a head with multiple people in it that was created by trauma. Often DID or OSDD
Headmate - someone who lives in the same head as you
Introject - a headmate whose identity is based on an external source such as a character
Fictive - a headmate based on a fictional character. May or may not believe they're truly the same person as in the media, for any philosophical opinion on what "the same person" means.

I was talking to a friend of mine about whether or not we would get along with exact copies of ourselves. He didn't think that he would want to spend much time with his copy, but I thought I would love my own company in that sense. We would have the same values, the same goals in life, the same likes and dislikes, the same hobbies, the same sense of humor, etc. And all that is just with a same-sex copy of myself that I would have no attraction to. An opposite sex (but still heterosexual) copy would also have the same sex drive and the same weird fetishes.

Anyway, it's still probably not worth fracturing one's psyche for but with good arguments for each side. Reasonable people can disagree.

If you had an exact copy of yourself you could finish the pile of shame twice as fast
