“What we should really experience, then, is a fusion of the two, true and false, which we could more accurately record, and refer to, as tralse. The Liar paradox generates tralse, not true and false (which separately are all our minds are capable of handling), and tralse is a permanent state of the two with no oscillations, no variations.”
