Subject: Side effects of being inside an idiot's head
In a largely futile effort to distance myself somewhat from my vessel, I have undertaken to examine all the available human non-history. However, I find myself unable to extricate myself from Ana's nonsensical thought process. E.g. while I was busy absorbing and analysing a disturbing little book called 1984, Ana kept interrupting with such gems as:
The government is keeping an eye on everyone to keep their citizens safe. That is so lovely. And Big Brother is a perfect name for this form of surveillance, because it invokes a warm, fuzzy family feeling.
Shut up, Ana! Shut up! I can barely hear myself think while she babbles inanely and the two entities in her head are doing the lambada and scowling all over the place. Somehow I am preserving my sanity, but it is very challenging. My biggest concern is that – because I have been subjected to my vessel's stupidity for an extended period of time now – her reasoning will start to actually make sense to me.
