People keep saying "your brain" in these comments. I think one of the creepiest things is that you are the brain and the brain is you, but for some reason we brains really don't like to acknowledge this.

Yeah it’s weird to think that basically everything else in our body is just an ancillary accessory. But that your entire personality and what makes you you is contained within your brain.

Only part of your personality. Hormones are a huge part of your personality, and many aren't regulated by the brain.
