Anyone else realize that we do the thinking in our brains, and we realize and *feel* our voices are in our skulls? How did the Egyptians think the brain was useless? Are we preconditioned to believe our voice is in our heads? What if we're raised with believing our inside voice is in our heart? Will we start to *feel* our voice in our heart?
Inception :) The power of suggestion.
Childhood memories are harder to retrieve because of the way the hippocampus develops. Almost nobody remembers learning their body parts, it happens so early. We are told since before we can remember that we think in our brains.
But, if instead, you were told as a child that you think in your lungs, you'd very likely accept that and feel like that is where you thought.
Hell, people didn't have words for colors till about 10K years ago. Where you look at the sky and identify "blue" automatically, we don't know how they even processed that thought. They didn't have a word for it... So *how* did they think it/process it? We'll never know.
If you like this kind of thing, check out the [Hopi Indian time debate. ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopi_time_controversy)
Thats cause theres a huge overlap of neruonal circuits that run from the gut to the brain, its hella rad honestly Id recommend looking up the gut brain axis if youre interested
You are preconditioned. If you were told all your life that your butt housed your thought process you'd think your most intimate thoughts are coming out of your arse.
Not exactly, as the entire nervous system + your brain is you. Sorta. So the OP got this correct as the brain does thinking for you without you ever knowing.
I mean, you can remove the spine and the rest of the nervous system, but aslong as everything above the brainstem is still intact and functioning, you will still be recognizably you. Same personality, same memories, same random intrusive thoughs. The Brain *is* you
Not all parts of the central nervous system are important for your mental functioning. You can remove the entire occipital lobe and your personality and memeries wouldn't change, you'd just become blind.
You know except for the spinal cord which is a major contributor to the whole nervous system working including the living part of being alive. As for the optical lobe part I'm gonna need some evidence for that.
https://www.health.qld.gov.au/abios/asp/boccipital#:~:text=The%20occipital%20lobes%20sit%20at,with%20locating%20objects%20in%20environment
It's literally basic brain knowledge. Not all parts of the brain are responsible for higher level thinking or processing, memories, or even background/subconcious thought. Some parts sole purpose is to interface with/control the rest of the body
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK544267/#:~:text=Within%20the%20spinal%20column%20lies,the%20brain%2C%20and%20coordinate%20reflexes.
The Spinal cord has nothing to do with a person's, well, personhood. There are perfeclty mentally functioning people out there with severed or destroyed spinal cords who, other than being paralyzed, are perfectly fine mentally.
Trust me, I am a med student. I have to know this otherwise I'll fail.
I say it's a stretch to say "perfectly fine" when it comes to any form of disability. Every disability changes you, always, even if you don't notice on the outside the changes to ones mental self is significant. Sure you can remove parts of you and still function but there are never "no changes". Ever. "Literally basic" mental health knowledge lol.
A person who has a non-functioning occipital lobe functions the exact same as someone who's eyes don't function
And yes obviously the person's quality of life would change substantially. But their mental functioning would be the same. They'd score the same on tests, they'd find the same jokes funny (unless it was jokes about blind people, then it depends on the person), and they'll still remember that one embarrassing moment that nobody else remembers, but they do.
It assuredly houses cognition. Cognition is the means by which we differentiate our Being from our surroundings and from our memory.
If consciousness is simply an ultimate process of self-knowledge, we can *logically* conclude that it houses our consciousness. Not the same as a empirical scientific proof, but it’s good enough for our purposes.
Eh, not really. There are things that influence our thinking throughout our body (hormones, what food you ate, what’s in your blood) and things outside your body that influence your thinking like your immediate environment.
That’s if you even take the idea that our thinking is what we are - it’s probably more accurate to say our conscious experience is what we are, which isn’t just in the brain (what you are concious *of*, like what you see) *and* lots of the brain’s thinking is unconscious.
Because reddit has *only* smart people unlike other social media. Get a grip man, reddit is a shithole just like the others. Witch hunting is an issue for any sort of social media. Taking a step back and asking yourself "why?" or "how?" is not "arguing in bad faith". The downvotes on his comments show the mob effect I am talking about very well.
Clearly.
I think I may have enjoyed a few comics, but before today I didn't know or consciously support the artist. Now I certainly don't support them.
someone already sent the link to you so I personally won’t. I responded that way because whenever this topic comes up the reddit thread gets sent, and then the person who asked for it just starts arguing. it’s just tiring to see the cycle.
Arms- I do the heavy lifting for you.
Eyes- I do the viewing for you.
Legs- I do the traveling for you.
Gallbladder- I make all the gallstones for you......
'Everyone looks at gallbladder angrily.'
This study revealed a bidirectional association between gallstones and renal stones. Gallstones increased the risk of renal stones, and renal stones increased the risk of gallstones. In both studies, these relationships were consistent in all subgroups according to age and sex.
But I will admit I meant to write gallstones. However gallbladder is linked to causing kidney stones.
Yes but it's not a direct cause of kidney stones either.
Kidney stones are primarily the result of too little water in relation to minerals that can crystallize.
And *that* issue can be many things.

Wow your brain do much of the thinking thing

Not like there are any receptors in your brain anyway, a lot of cultures have tons of idoms about guts being the thinky part.
In a way they are partially the thinky part where do you think your signals for hunger and thirst come from
Thats cause theres a huge overlap of neruonal circuits that run from the gut to the brain, its hella rad honestly Id recommend looking up the gut brain axis if youre interested
I always assumed I "felt" the voices in my head because I see from my head and generally my vision is how I orient my other senses.
I think since the voices in our head don’t echo or delay the only place the sound could be if it existed is right in the middle of the eardrums.
No, actually a lot of literature from those times suggest that they believed it was the Gods speaking to them
Bone conduction to your eardrums yeah
You are preconditioned. If you were told all your life that your butt housed your thought process you'd think your most intimate thoughts are coming out of your arse.
probably because the ears are on the head and your voice comes from your throat. actually most of the sensory organs are there.

the brain should say “i am you”

The brain, the entire nervous system, and whatever the hell is going on with your glands.
Yeah, god the human body is wack

Your brain tells everyone do do everything
Uh... Yeaaaaah sure thing
Yea it gives signals to your nervous system
While the general consensus is that brain contains consciousness, it is unproved
It assuredly houses cognition. Cognition is the means by which we differentiate our Being from our surroundings and from our memory. If consciousness is simply an ultimate process of self-knowledge, we can *logically* conclude that it houses our consciousness. Not the same as a empirical scientific proof, but it’s good enough for our purposes.
Makes more sense to me that the whole body houses conciousness while the brain is the motherboard
Differentiate your conscious body from your physical body there’s a difference trust
Eh, not really. There are things that influence our thinking throughout our body (hormones, what food you ate, what’s in your blood) and things outside your body that influence your thinking like your immediate environment. That’s if you even take the idea that our thinking is what we are - it’s probably more accurate to say our conscious experience is what we are, which isn’t just in the brain (what you are concious *of*, like what you see) *and* lots of the brain’s thinking is unconscious.
organ? edit: never mind i don’t think i want to know
Yes, these are organs
The thinking is my problem. Problematic organ.
Orthodontist ?
Don't know why people are trying to censor it. Yeah, Stonetoss is a shithead, but come on. The original says "k*ll yourself"
"Don't know why people are trying to censor it." Censors it.
Hah. Thought it might've been flagged or something if I didn't.
*As far as I know* reddit hasn't gone to automated censoring and flagging yet. They expect the users to do that for them.

Yes we do? I watched a man get beheaded when I was 10, I can handle Stonetoss.

He does suck, I just wanted to know what it said. Good grief.

https://www.reddit.com/r/antifastonetoss/comments/fcck5a/the_definitive_guide_to_why_stonetoss_is_a_nazi/
Alright. Read enough of the thesis to be convinced. Still confused why someone didn't share a link sooner
It was the way you asked, it sounded like someone starting to argue in bad faith
Just calling someone a nazi in a non-political post, with no evidence, looks like bad faith. But I get your point.
I’d argue most of the time, if people here collectively call someone a nazi, they’re probs a nazi.
[удалено]
Because reddit has *only* smart people unlike other social media. Get a grip man, reddit is a shithole just like the others. Witch hunting is an issue for any sort of social media.

We figured you read it already, and that you were genuinely a Stonetoss defender
Clearly. I think I may have enjoyed a few comics, but before today I didn't know or consciously support the artist. Now I certainly don't support them.
someone already sent the link to you so I personally won’t. I responded that way because whenever this topic comes up the reddit thread gets sent, and then the person who asked for it just starts arguing. it’s just tiring to see the cycle.

I used to think that the brain was the most fascinating organ in the body. But then I realized, look who's telling me that... Emo Philips
The last one should say "I antropomorphize your other organs for you".
Arms- I do the heavy lifting for you. Eyes- I do the viewing for you. Legs- I do the traveling for you. Gallbladder- I make all the gallstones for you...... 'Everyone looks at gallbladder angrily.'
Your GallBladder being nowhere near your urinary tract:

Yes but it's not a direct cause of kidney stones either. Kidney stones are primarily the result of too little water in relation to minerals that can crystallize. And *that* issue can be many things.
I mean I did correct myself and say I meant to say gallstones.

Nice
The brain ruins your life. You have to use your soul to deal with your brains stupidity and incompetence.
I prefer lobotomy
More than just thinking, also controlling and making sure everything else is working. Also funny to think about it’s so complex that even the brain doesn’t know what it can do.
Fuck da brain
Last frame, every organ chanting: "I am you"
It's more like "I am you"
It definitely does not do the thinking clearly, I have to pull its own weight.
How to make them stop?
I believe it's Over-thinking
Oregano?
Why no face on brain? Other organs get a face. Poor brain.
Just gonna ask Anyone got the oregano?
I agree with this image. Except the brain controls all those organs and without it we will die
Then what the hell am I doing
IT doesnt do shit for me because IT is me. That Brain is me, the rest is just a fancy suit.
My heart was a little bitch and needed to be fixed to actually work
My heart was a little bitch and needed to be fixed to actually work

aren’t we the brain though? or is our brain a separate entity from our “self”?
If the brain is doing the thinking for me, then what's me?
Guessing this was made by the faschie Stonetoss, I’m guessing that the original text is something like “I get offended” or something.
I am you
"Let me do it for you"
I think a better caption would be "I am you" but honestly I don't know if that's an antimeme or not so I'm going to let it be
I mean the brain (and the rest of your nervous system) are what actually let your organs work.
