this kind of applied multiple personality disorder is not easy. it can take years to master. bear in mind @sadmanbarty only pretended to be a russian on shore leave. when @luka goes out on the pull he is a russian on shore leave.Well honestly I'm impressed by the sheer dexterity required to switch that rapidly between 5 fully-developed and established personas. Color me confounded.
again, I think this is related to authenticity as a kind of currency - verified accounts etcthe possibility of extreme positioning, regretful hindsight and cancellations
So you got this "mask" that you're using to communicate - when does it start replacing your actual personality?
that's what happens with most of your tech, isnt it, and why twitter is driving humankind batty?

comes back to what you were on about a lot = writing as a way to explore, to find out what you think, a journey into the unknownits definitely an upgrade.
so it's more like the performance takes you over, but how does that work when the performance is online and you're just a lonely git in his underwear in front of the screenwhat is 'actual personality'? personality is somewhat of a mask. we only have an identity in relation to others, an audience... ie its performative and a performance is always a collaboration between art and audience. them psychoanalysts understand personality as the armour, the mask we build to protect ourselves against the unpredictability and pain and fleeting potentials for pleasure in the world
yes indeed - the written self, the created personaility, the projected identity or ...I think it's more about the public and private self than the written and spoken self, probably
tho they are related - a key point seems like increases in ability to store and recall publicly expressed opinions
i.e. pre-printing press, creating physical copies of things was a v laborious process
then printing press, eventually film, the Internet - all reducing the friction, as an engineer might put it, of opinion recall
so there's a greater impetus to curate yourself
working in hospitality was really a bigger factor for me than being online though in all honesty.
