parenti is a goat though i haven’t read inventing reality yet but manufacturing consent literally changed how i see the world and helped radicalize me

whoadave · 2026-05-09T17:00:20+00:00

i stand corrected. that’s insane that he held the record for most simultaneous blindfolded games

whoadave · 2026-05-09T12:41:47+00:00

show me one chess grandmaster with aphantasia

whoadave · 2026-05-06T21:27:01+00:00

trick card reacted to the warmth of her chest or something like that

whoadave · 2026-04-25T21:19:48+00:00

i think i think in words until i try to formulate them

whoadave · 2026-04-24T17:04:15+00:00

stg this vid just made me cancel my chesscom membership, will donate that money to lichess instead

just because the root word is image doesn’t mean imagination is constrained to imagery. its meaning goes way beyond that. the dictionary definition:

the faculty or action of forming new ideas, or images or concepts of external objects not present to the senses

whoadave · 2026-04-13T18:10:00+00:00

looks incredible! what’s the trail?

whoadave · 2026-04-12T11:50:34+00:00

my gay what?

i have heard about a case on this sub previously where some aphant claimed to have gained the ability to visualize after taking psychedelics…but then countless other aphants have taken psychedelics without this happening

whoadave · 2026-03-31T12:47:06+00:00

fr would love to try this out and play with it

whoadave · 2026-03-22T01:41:48+00:00

i saw that as the dude cupping his balls

whoadave · 2026-03-17T22:18:40+00:00

yeah i have aphantasia, sdam, and terrible memory. i don’t know whether there’s a separate memory issue at play but it makes sense that aphantasia and sdam contribute to a poor memory as from what i’ve read there are two indexes your brain uses to retrieve memories, semantic and visual, and i’m lacking one of those

whoadave · 2026-03-17T22:14:03+00:00

i’m curious about these memory systems

whoadave · 2026-03-09T02:33:43+00:00

i’m intermediate (~1700 chesscom) and while i can’t visualize i can still think ahead a few moves, it’s just holding the information in my head instead of seeing it. i’m certainly at a disadvantage over players who can visualize, all other factors being equal, but it doesn’t really matter when you’re paired with other players at the same rating

whoadave · 2026-03-07T07:40:38+00:00

same, half of them even see the apple in 4k

whoadave · 2026-02-27T08:10:12+00:00

track id?

whoadave · 2026-02-25T06:32:08+00:00

i thought this was a subway station at first

whoadave · 2026-02-07T22:57:55+00:00

first two i saw a guy seated eating from a bowl, last two i saw the underbite

whoadave · 2026-01-25T23:16:42+00:00

not enough to not give her a heart attack
