        Nah, that is the wild part. Most the software are free mods. When you jerk it to skyrim you are jerking with comunism.

        I can rotate a butthole in my mind for free. It is easy and fun to do.

        Sucks to suck aphantasiacs.

          Okay first of all, rude.

          Second of all, we can code better or whatever since we don't have to tie all abstract thinking to a visualizable analogue or whatever the fuck is holding you guys back from thinking in thoughts instead of thinking in crayons.

          Third, we're basically immune to having thoughts put in our heads, you could mention the idea of Henry Kissinger having a relaxing time surrounded by friends and laughing, and we aren't stuck with that visual in our "mind's eye".

            I wanted to discuss metacognition for a while cause it's fun, but I wasn't really making a clear point. Don't have the heart to just press cancel.

            I feel really confident in saying that the best way to do problem solving is drawing pictures. I know I had physics professors through high school and college beg us to do it. Math teachers want you to show your work. I have to imagine coding works that way as I would sometimes draw to help visualize what was happening with VBA. Comparing how well you use your mind's eye to problem solve would be like seeing whose handwriting is more legible when you use your feet - impractical.

            That's some real "My grandpa was immune to communist propaganda because he couldn't read" vibes.
