I have aphantasia but love reading, even really descriptive passages. I don’t ‘see’ but I “feel” words, I think, if that makes any sense. Like, if I read a description of a steaming mug of coffee, I’ll feel the rising steam on my face, feel how it smells, feel the heaviness of the mug in my hand, etc. It’s a lot more vivid in a way than when I watch tv since that’s all visual and auditory.
I have balls of yarn, knitting needles, and crochet hooks from the 60s and 70s. Also, most of my home appliances, like fridge, tv, washing machine, and microwave/oven, are about 20 years old and working perfectly.
I’m just honestly so confused. Do they want to expel all non-white people and non-Christian white people, refuse entry to everyone including tourists, and basically just close themselves off from the rest of the world like a population of white hikikomori?

I guess the good thing about the first few months of Trump’s presidency was that I forgot about Kanye.
I like how “chuffed” sounds/feels like someone being all pleased with themselves but without the smugness of “smug”.
Interesting! My family did daikon radish cubes in honey as cough syrup when I was a kid.
I love chocolate-covered banana chips and coffee as an afternoon snack.
That last sentence hits hard.
Something you don’t really consider when you’re young and everything feels like forever is that A LOT can happen in 10, 20 years.
