I think most people don't think about what they think about.

I was told “still waters run deep” but sometimes still waters are just… still.

First Thoughts are the everyday thoughts. Everyone has those.

Second Thoughts are the thoughts you think about the way you think. People who enjoy thinking have those.

Third Thoughts are thoughts that watch the world and think all by themselves. They’re rare, and often troublesome. Listening to them is part of witchcraft.

Even without attribution or ever reading this quote before, I just knew it had to be Sir Terry Pratchett and I was right.

That man was unmatchable in his wit and wisdom and how he packaged life lessons on simply being good people into entertaining stories. The world is lesser without him.

i think the world is brighter for having had him. i don't want to mourn him, i want to celebrate what he's given us

Never knew what this meant, just looked it up. I should read Going Postal.

You absolutely should, assuming that you are a nerd it's IMO his best book. I have a lovely hard cover edition.

I've heard good things about the whole industrialization arc. I'll binge it eventually like I did with the city watch, Rincewind, Death, and witches arcs.

TIL that I am a witch.

J/k... I've known that for a long time. 😹

Imagine being an NT person and just bumping into one topic after another like a moth, I'd much rather know how I got to wherever I ended up. 😅

I’m NT, and “thinking about thinking” is how my brain works. A lot of “normal” brains do, but there’s a HUGE spectrum of how introspective people are.

Then what do they do?

Life must be so boring to them.

On the contrary, I imagine them being constantly slightly surprised by things, like they're along for the ride. Sounds relaxing.

Just that first part ... most people don't think

Therefore they aren't.
