Also, I think one of the worst things about being able to read minds would be knowing what other people are thinking.

I think that would be the worst thing.

Please refer to my post about “I think one of the worst things about being able to read minds would be knowing what other people are thinking.”

Sometimes when one of my loved ones is feeling down I do wish they could read my mind for a minute just to see how much I love them and how awesome I truly think they are, though.

Please accept my apologies Ant, I had not read further than the post I replied to at the point that I replied.

Would that sentence be more comprehensible the other way around?
Honestly losing the ability to talk over here.

I think it might make being lonely even worse if you got used to having a bunch of other people’s thoughts too

#32

maybe if it was a mutual thing you’d lose your sense of self as it would be impossible to know where the thought originated or who had “ownership” over it. Might bring about supreme peace and happiness

Oh, please don’t ever apologise to me for ANYTHING. You have never done anything to warrant an apology in your life.

  • You can hear people’s inner monologues, leaving open the possibility that you could get into a psychic argument/battle of will with them as you were doing it
  • You just get the gist, or a strong impression, of whatever their conscious or subconscious is doing at that moment, kinda like being able to read body language/facial expressions but times a million
  • You can actively harvest any information from their brain or memory at will, kind of like Bran from Game of Thrones

My brain is a terrible place, I don’t doubt that lots of other people’s are too. I would not want to read them any more than I’d be happy knowing someone could read mine. Anyone who has this talent has my deepest sympathies.

Ask me on another day and I’ll probably say something completely different
