(2019-10-18 00:19:32) Eclipsia: heya
(2019-10-18 00:19:55) Eclipsia: I'd really like you to watch something
(2019-10-18 00:20:20) Eclipsia: and it isn't hypno, but is at the the same time
(2019-10-18 00:22:10) Eclipsia: I think it might make you a better tist
(2019-10-18 00:22:44) Eclipsia: and your insight and comments on the lecture might make me better too
(2019-10-18 00:22:50) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] What lecture?
(2019-10-18 00:23:05) Eclipsia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8emPcpfqPRU
(2019-10-18 00:23:25) Eclipsia: its a *really* good talk
(2019-10-18 00:23:46) Eclipsia: its about abstract math
(2019-10-18 00:24:05) Eclipsia: but the way the gal structured her talk
(2019-10-18 00:24:19) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] Since we have a data limit, we'll have to wait until Compu-Celebi brings his computer to somewhere for public Wi-Fi access to watch the video.
(2019-10-18 00:24:32) Eclipsia: it starts off as a very ericksonian induction
(2019-10-18 00:25:21) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] Are you saying the lecturer accidentally did something that was like an Ericksonian induction?
(2019-10-18 00:25:33) Eclipsia: yes
(2019-10-18 00:25:53) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] I'm not familiar with Ericksonian hypnosis.
(2019-10-18 00:26:02) Eclipsia: I think I'm actually going to reach out to the gal
(2019-10-18 00:26:16) Eclipsia: because I admire her thinking
(2019-10-18 00:26:45) Eclipsia: and point out that was she did was the same thing as erickson
(2019-10-18 00:27:14) Eclipsia: and hopefully she bites and we can start a discourse
(2019-10-18 00:27:35) Eclipsia: but like its amazing
(2019-10-18 00:28:21) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] How do you figure the video would help me?
(2019-10-18 00:28:32) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] Do you think it's a good introduction to how to do Ericksonian inductions?
(2019-10-18 00:28:45) Eclipsia: the gal giving the talk
(2019-10-18 00:29:22) Eclipsia: is an abstract mathematician
(2019-10-18 00:29:56) Eclipsia: that field, which is actually one I'm quite familiar with
(2019-10-18 00:30:28) Eclipsia: allows you to use logic to emathize with people
(2019-10-18 00:31:17) Eclipsia: and she gives examples in how to use it to in her talk
(2019-10-18 00:31:42) Eclipsia: and it's the deep learning I use in my own play
(2019-10-18 00:32:06) Eclipsia: I think it might help ya with your autism
(2019-10-18 00:32:36) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] What does mathematics, abstract or otherwise, have to do with empathy?
(2019-10-18 00:33:43) Eclipsia: the point of her talk is the answer is everything
(2019-10-18 00:35:22) Eclipsia: what she does in the talk
(2019-10-18 00:36:35) Eclipsia: is constructs several mathematecal frameworks around feelings, states of priveledge, human sexuality, etc
(2019-10-18 00:36:58) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] I don't see those things as mathematical.
(2019-10-18 00:37:13) Eclipsia: and uses math behind it all
(2019-10-18 00:37:23) Eclipsia: you will
(2019-10-18 00:37:46) Eclipsia: its why I think you'll like it
(2019-10-18 00:38:30) Eclipsia: this is how I am able to get over my autism and relate to the world
(2019-10-18 00:38:37) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] I suppose you figure that them being mathematical would make them easier for someone like Compu-Celebi to understand.
(2019-10-18 00:38:51) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] Why do you think you needed to "get over" your autism?  It's not a weakness.
(2019-10-18 00:39:22) Eclipsia: being a jerk is a weakness
(2019-10-18 00:39:44) Eclipsia: period
(2019-10-18 00:41:52) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] You think autism made you a jerk?
(2019-10-18 00:42:59) Eclipsia: the fact you aren't able to empathically relate to someone, yeah, it makes you a jerk
(2019-10-18 00:43:19) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] I don't see the connection.
(2019-10-18 00:44:27) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] I know autism tends to get in the way of social skills and that Compu-Celebi's no exception to this, but that doesn't cause people to be rude.  It just causes them to do things that get misunderstood as rude, offensive, or whatnot by other people, especially neurotypicals.
(2019-10-18 00:45:13) Eclipsia: when you can't recognize what someone else is feeling
(2019-10-18 00:45:47) Eclipsia: and put yourself into their mindset as you communicate with them
(2019-10-18 00:46:05) Eclipsia: (really the definition of empathy)
(2019-10-18 00:46:22) Eclipsia: it makes you a jerk
(2019-10-18 00:46:23) Compu-Celebi: [Mistress Jigglypuff] I know what empathy is.  I also know there's affective empathy and cognitive empathy.
