What’s your system for knowing what is real and what is just fantasy on here?

I’m thinking of getting myself a totem for whenever I log on here

The question, to me, is: is it [u]good[/u] or not? Real or fantasy, that's more or less irrelevant to me. Hamlet is a very interesting person even though he's fantasy. The Treasury Secretary in my country is real, but he is boring as f*ck.

@helenS so whether it’s real or not, I should just enjoy it if it makes me happy?

@Ghostinthemachine Yes – I would see it as a theatre play. And reality imitates fantasies anyway, in my opinion.

@helenS a theatre play in which we are all actors with our individual roles

@Ghostinthemachine Exactly! And you can be anybody you want, and play any role.
But it has to be a [u]good[/u] role, and you have to play well! 🤨
That's what makes the difference.

@helenS I play myself on here, it’s the role I know best, and I’m pretty good at it, if I do say so myself 😌

@Ghostinthemachine Yes - you are quite good at playing yourself. 🌷
