Liquid Truth


Life's still pretty great

It's okay to think about stuff while you're in a shower. Just don't overthink or you might end up following an endless train of thought and why is it called a train and not something else?

Wait, if it is called a train, then it must be made by the time it already existed, which means that it wasn't very long ago but that should've been obvious because Ponish sounds very different just a few decades ago! If I got back in time even just before my grandmother was born, I would sound silly just like how the opposite is true if my great grandmother went forward in time to now!

...I did not see that coming. I should really try to sing in the shower like usual. Oh, and try to do better paragraphing because that previous one contains too many main ideas. But why should a paragraph contain only one main idea?


Turns out her train of thought is wrong

Who gets to define what constitutes overthinking? Does overthinking become normal thinking due to the nature of the subject(s) being thought about? Side one: you need to consider every detail for the sake of best result; Side two, you have anxiety that is hampering your way of life, and thus, ceasing thinking about unimportant things will lower said anxiety.

But why should a paragraph contain only one main idea?

Clarity.

Duuuuude. That was like, super deep man.

This is so relatable

So, if she or he buys me one, it must be because she or he likes books and don't understand that not everypony likes what she or he likes.

I mean, I do give a lot of books as gifts, but everyone in my family likes to read.

In any case, this was thoroughly relatable. And I quite appreciated Sweetie contemplating Sweetie Bot for a moment. Thank you for a quick dip in this stream of consciousness.

Is this inspired by Gertrude Stein?

Reading is fun (we're here, so that's that), just not for Sweetie.

Who?

That's a lot of... conditionals.

Gertrude Stein was an American writer famed for her 'stream of consciousness' approach. This story resembles several of the tropes of that genre.
