I call it a ‘stream of unconsciousness’ Fay. Nothing makes sense, the ramblings of an empty brain’s last synapses firing. It would be sad if the reality wasn’t so terrifying.

Thank you, Derek. I like the 'stream of unconsciousness' it is so descriptive. I wish it were his last synapses firing. I keep hoping for either a massive heart attack or massive cerebral hemorrhage.
In psychiatric nursing, we were taught the disorder is called "loose association" or "derailment." The person talks in chains of semi-related ideas. It is a thought disorder and should be a significant news story.
ha! psych nurses are some of my favorite people. god knows you folks are essential in any setting where there are so many psychiatrists (or, to be more specific, psychiatric residents) running around and feeling important.
I never worked as a psych nurse. I worked in a burn unit, CCU, ICU, ER, med-surg, and skilled nursing. Psych nursing skills learned in school are needed in all areas of nursing.
I assume you've noticed that TFF has actually addressed that issue with his insistence that he's doing what he calls "The Weave." is it possible that his busted brain really BELIEVES this? I suppose on one level it's true (a level of no importance, but still some kind of "level") inssofar as he begins with an incoherently-phrased lie and usually ends with the same one; still, it remains nothing but random loose threads.
He believes this garbage and much more, particularly the parts he made up because he certain he’s infallible and therefore right about all things. Some folks seem to enjoy being bullied and lied to. Count all of us out on that score.

It certainly should be a topic of news

Didn't he confirm his busted brain belief when he bragged that "many, many people" thought his "weave" was just "brilliant"?
