This is a bit of channeling that came through this morning, again. It turns out that it’s surprisingly common for someone to pretend that they have a spouse, and possibly even kids, because their vanity won’t allow them to share with others that they are single, or, worse, in some cases—a virgin.
(Given that there’s no evidence being presented here that isn’t circumstantial, this post and the others like this are exercises in hypothesizing for entertainment purposes only, whether or not the accounts presented correspond to real, not-fictional events.)
Yes. Secret virgins. They’re out there.
It turns out this guy was one of them. His name was Jack Branswell, and he was the editor of the National Post, a Canadian national daily newspaper. I worked as a freelancer for Canada.com for three years; he was there at the start.
I’ve been picking up on him. He’s got a very strong case of narcisssism, such that he can’t imagine things from someone else’s perspective. He’s been particularly annoying because he is a skeptic about touch typing. I learned touch typing in ninth grade. I type at around 70-80 words per minute generally. I can also do alphenumeric data entry at a rate of about 14,000 keystrokes per hour. He had to look at his fingers, and he still made typographical errors.
I’ve been channeling his spirit, his mind, and he lacked the ability to do spatial modeling in his head. I’ve encountered this with other spirits whose minds go blank when they play a musical instrument—they can’t use a mental spatial model in their heads, such that they can remember where the notes were. In Jack’s case, it’s inconceivable to him that someone could remember where keys were. It’s bizarre to me, but his psychology is such that he can’t conceive of how someone could operate differently from him, so it’s understandable
This Twitter account was created to sell the lie about him not being, as they say, an “incel,” or “secret virgin”: https://twitter.com/daxdiaries. The person whose child he borrowed (a two-level indirect report) doesn’t know he pretended to pass off her child as his own.
Spiritual lesson: Being realistic means understanding that people will lie to look good
I’m not going to dish on celebrities here, but I’ve encountered spirits of famous people in the afterlife who have the same social limitation going on but kept it hidden—no actual sex life, and a cover story in which the person is actually married, or at least has a relationship. I’m getting Matthew Perry and Jim Perry wanting to confess. Also getting Chelsea Clinton here.
Personally, I’ve had to recover from bad sexual programming myself. I was fortunate enough to have girls ask me out. You can’t rely on that, though. I will be speaking a lot in the future about the need for what you could call “good sexual skills” or “sexual intelligence”.
There’s a general principle I’ve noticed: People don’t play poker with their cards facing everyone else.
And further to that: Some people like to fib, and to project an image oif a good person, because that’s a better way for that person to operate than being honest, given their emotional makeup.
I’ve been learning about so many lies told by people I know that it’s… I don’t even know what. Funny, but also sad, but also explanatory.
