I went over your examples as given in description:

"EXAMPLES USED (in rough order of first appearance): Transformers Prime (Orion Pax p.1), Death Note, Blindspot, Doctor Who (Utopia), Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Captain Marvel, Batman: The Animated Series (Forgotten), The Iron Giant, Frozen, She-Ra (Remember), Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Young Justice (Bereft), Wall-E, Gravity Falls (finale), Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Wreck-It Ralph, Captain America: The Winter Soldier"

How about this one?

I think the amnesia was well studied not just limited to plot needs and I think the plot twist was in Goscinny very much not just annoying.

Obviously, the way amnesia ended there may have been wrong ....

Wait ... I think the Druid got out of amnesia before that second menhir.

He accidentally got to a potion removing amnesia, so that part isn't correct, since there are no such drugs, but for one, his potions are fantastic in effect anyway, so one more unrealistic potion doesn't matter too much, and for another, it was the sixties and in the optimism back then, one thought amnesia could one day be actively cured, no doubt.

However, it is at least neither clean nor leaving the affected "sexy"

AND it was made pretty clear that Obelix' idea of a second head trauma was not a good idea.

Never mind that a real menhir thrown with that kind of force would have killed a real person.

7:44 I am actually missing one type of amnesia treated here : hypnotic amnesia.

Hypnosis could neatly remove one single chunk of a memory as long as the post-hypnotic effects last, if about memories before hypnosis, or for that matter, prevent forming of a memory from some events during the hypnosis.

11:08 You are saying, amnesia has no rules, really no way to know what to expect, while, for instance superpowers do very much have rules?

Interesting. Reminds me of an Atheist meme about one reason to reject God (either overall or when doing science):

With God - they'd say - anything could happen, there are no rules at all. I e, they think the Christian God being real would be like living in a world where amnesia has the fictional ramifications.

While a Christian thinks, though God is definitely not a superhero (that's more the style of Pagan gods who are mythically based on mainly angels, demons and nephelim / divinised heros), Godhood is parallel to superpowers in so far as it involves there being a code. God being very powerful, indeed all powerful, but there are some things He won't do, like Superman will not crash into Twin Towers, like Batman won't go on stage dancing lambada and so on ...

Hour's up. Watched videos and wrote a piece which took some patience after a blunder, but no big passion in conceiving the post:

Recipes from Home and Abroad : Getting a logo or URL for a poster the right distance of letters.
https://recipesfromhomeandabroad.blogspot.com/2019/01/getting-logo-or-url-for-poster-right.html

I can add, first ten to twenty minutes I felt slightly as if still in trance, and it certainly contributed to my patience

I feel like getting back to hypnosis and sneak peeking on words of your non-text ones ...

Actually got sleepy after even the sneek peeks and a little more video grazing ...

2 days ago

one hour

spent it in a cyber, so not totally calm, but ... well, hung around a few hypno videos, discarded "suggested options" that "weren't for me", spent some time doing other things, like seeing a reaction, like watching news - not getting too upset, even at fairly horrifying things (Epstein's supposed "suicide")

it's a bit disconcerting how, as people try to sabotage my hypnosis in cybers, I enter easier and easier despite noise ... and I don't feel worried, though maybe I should be

I watched the video once again, it was better:

• 1) less noise around
• 2) had the first "sleep now" bring a state close to the relaxation at "ten" the time before, so it really got deeper and more soothing

only drawback - can't stay here, need to pay and go, so can't stay the hour where I am

I can add for that hour, being calm really helped to make a good impression while I was begging with my cardboard of a url. And being questioned on whether I was writing something illicit, which I was, basically, not.

XXX - Threat (here instead of main blog, due to adult content)

I think this email is kind of funny, for which I am giving some details by screenshots:



Noted the email?

<moira515@d.an0nym0us-hacked.ml>

.ml = Mali.

But the fun part is : I have not masturbated in front of any videos, since I watch those in libraries and cybers, where also videos with young teens in porn situations would quickly be turned off, and I don't have any bitcoin account to send the guy any from.

The Mali part is, not really fun, but sad.

It's sad people in Mali can invest time hating a guy they invent stories about. Or even if the sentiment isn't hate but more like "we feel sorry for the fool, but we'd like to get some money from him even so". Supposing the owner gave an email account with adress corresponding to his country.

XXIX Back to Stephanie Dillon, a bit

Dillon text 1, again.

Bad environment, had to stop bc someone was coming along to the computers of the cyber, but it did work as a relaxation.

After that I quickly shifted focus.

I came back to second video (Dillon text 2) at the end of the session.

Thank you again!

Comments under 2

Relaxed - somewhat groggy, despite a near row in the cyber at computers beside me.

Dito second time, in a library, despite sn coughing and despite having eaten a bit too much.

Yes, I enjoyed it.

I also had to fight a bit to concentrate on hypnosis despite noises and potential threats of disturbance.

XXVIII Some Fairclough I did try

Hypnosis for Confidence and Motivation on subscribers' only list, I left this comment:

• 1) I saw the video (sound off? subtitles?) yesterday, without full immersion.
• 2) I rewatched it today (as intended) and it was better than I had thought.
• 3) As I am a homeless writer, doing publicity for my own blogs, I didn't imagine me as radically different, but as most confortably homeless, most cheeky writer and most confident "sandwichman" for my own blogs.

THANK YOU!

XXVI - Why I Thought Hypnosis Demonic

There was a time in my teens when I did lots of autohypnosis. Then there was a time in my early twenties, when I quit that. I thought it demonic.

Why?

Lies. The devil is the father of lies, so if induction depends on lies, it is demonic.

Now, it does not actually.

"You cannot open your eyelids, even if you try" is strictly true about a certain degree of relaxation, it would seem. One could if one tried hard enough - and trying hard enough is exactly getting out of the state of relaxation agreed on in advance one wanted to reach.

So, still, it would be more correct to say "if you've done everything right, you cannot open your eyelids" - but in a live situation, the hypnotist can verify that the subject has done everything right and so need not really say the first part.

Hence, hypnosis is not necessarily demonic on this account.

Of course, you may argue, since I am back to using hypnosis for relaxation, I have an ulterior motive, beyond the possible or to me probable truth of above observation./HGL
