I mean, they sure seem like my thoughts, but if they are not, how did they get here?

You did say If correct? I mean if... Hey, wait a second... Why you! Gimme those! I was wondering what happened to those meanderings.
I tell ya, you can't just leave your shallow musings laying around anywhere nowadays!

The mind is just a small pond in a forest, and your thoughts are everything reflected upon it. As you learn more of the world, you are broadening your perspective, and now you're trying to sort out all that information, make sense of it all, and so forth.

If like you say there is no true self then it only makes sense that those thoughts belong to nobody.

thoughts is not of material substance and their behavior is not known...I believe that in material world there is no barriers for thoughts, they floating freely seeking similarity to merge with. They travel with unmeasurable speed, if I can apply the word speed here.Most of a thoughts , most, is not ours but adopted. We cannot distinguish difference...there is true Self..beyond of assault of uncontrolled thoughts.You are right in between busy to organize avalanche of thoughts, sometime identify yourself with it, oriented to external apparitions.

They're a mixture of thoughts by other people. Your thoughts are created through the influence of other people's thoughts.

Who told you that there is no true Self. Are you not responsible for your actions? Don't you love yourself?

If there's no true self, there might still be a lying, backstabbing, conniving little false self. Ask him/her/it.
