I have an affectation - and it's my only weakness - for wanting to understand
one Tycho Brahe. This author has deep similarities to my peers and mentors yet
is a fashionable video game promoter.

Their recent webpost

https://penny-arcade.com/news/post/2023/09/06/vampire-the-masquerade

about seeing their own experience of introversive masking play out in their
own child's life rejects the conventional wisdom that they would now
understand why their child's challenges were just a lack of conventional
wisdom hard-won by age. Instead they - the parent have now measured the world
by two childhoods, their own and their child's, and found it wanting in closely
similar ways in each case.

This webpost, wost, denounces our world of extroversion, with thriving
extroverts cavorting at the psychic and physical expense of their introverted
peers.

Extroversion, I read, seems to describe desire for more time around others,
salivation and a cheerful temperament.

What if the reason we associate extroversion and happiness is that institutions
are basically hurting people without extroversive comorbidities and stroking
the people with extroversive comorbidities.

Like schooling incentivises passivity and obedience to unqualified authority,
maybe this world of forced whitecollar officework in social life benefits a
mean temperament who relish petty technically permitted actions on introverts'
expenses.

This implies introverts want to be left alone by a world that is hurting them
rather than a psychic personal desire for loneliness.
