    In what way are you neurally atypical in terms of subjective mental experience (eg. aphantasia, synesthesia, other nameless things...)?

        Interesting, what's an example of a different language having a different feel? Is English furry/Spanish smooth or something?

        Musical synesthesia: guitar chords and piano scales have colors. Chromatic scales == rainbow :) 🌈

        Time-space mapping, inability to smell vegetable garbage, thinking either visually or in space-time projection.

        Tell me more about your time-space mapping. What is that experience like?

        I have a complete inability to "visualize" tastes. I can't call them to mind or predict whether flavors will combine well.

        mildly faceblind, plus bad sense of direction (from what i've heard the two are correlated). also cannot instinctively tell left from right

        Oh interesting re left to right. Has that helped in scrabble tactics? Anything to do with being in right-to-left Arab textual environment?

        A cluster: a perceived fixated attn on the screen/page when absorbed until head hurts. Forgetting to blink. No appetite.

        Holy shit. This tweet just made me aware that I have aphantasia.

        The first time I heard someone define aphantasia the world made so much more sense to me.
