Today’s strip is a cautionary tale. My great aunt the psychic, that I’ve mentioned before, spent her later years as a recluse because she couldn’t handle the thoughts she heard from anyone nearby.
EGAD!!!!! Wandering around in my own mind is . . .interesting enough. Why would I want to be in anybody else’s? AAMF, my sister and I were just discussing this. . .we were ruminating on why Spock (remember him????) would EVER mind meld? Why would somebody thinK that was fun? or the episode where the guy couldn’t filter out ANY other mind: finally got reprieve when he was paired with an alien “ship” that kept out all static from other humans. . .also, just finished “Crosstalk” by Connie Willis. Interesting funny take on mind access between lovers. . .and then, of course, there’s “Memory” by Lois McMaster Bujold, but that’s not strictly about mind access. . .but there’s the Borg. . .THANKS FOR LETTING ME SHARE!!!
Wiz – not to sound too know-it-all – I could have told you that WAY before you spent all that time putting the formula together. I had an occupation that I retired from with too many years of counseling, talking to, and listening to people. It’s the scariest thing in the world. IF that was what they were willing to “share” I never ever once wanted to “read their minds”. EVER! js

You can´t read minds, if there no mind to read.

You don’t need a potion to read minds, just a FREE account on any social media site.

Whatever is on the Fink’s mind, it’s scary in any language.

I’m pretty sure that women would not want to know what’s on men’s mind most of the time.

That was a big mistake. Reading the Fink’s mind is like a soak in toxic waste hot tub.

I think a wedding ring also allows women to mind read, but it seems to only work in the one direction.

it’ll still be worth it. I’d just get a psychiatrist on standby to deal with any damage.
