And so you see there isn't a "seat of consciousness" in the brain. No unified decision-making self any more than an economy can be said to have selfhood.

If there's no self, then who am I constantly lying to?

Who is perpetually being misled to believe that his bad life choices were unavoidable? Who am I forever telling "yes we'll find love because we're above average"? Whose mortality do I deny every. Single. Night? Fah!

You're remarkably self-aware for someone so self-deceiving.

That's what consciousness is!
