  • The ball was a colorless wireframe. Color wasn’t necessary for the scenario.

    The person was genderless. Gender wasn’t necessary for the scenario. They looked like a wire frame skeleton of a person.

    The ball was roughly the size and density of the smallest size bowling ball.

    Table surface was circular wireframe with four legs. Material wasn’t filled in as I wasn’t trying to model for friction.

    My imagination doesn’t tend to fill in unnecessary details. Too much wasted processing power. I also don’t really envision things. Like, I don’t “see” them in my head. I feel out the shapes and weights and other physical properties relevant to the scenario and let my intuitive understanding of physics roll the scenario forward.

    Like, I know the ball rolled until it fell off the table, it fell some distance, then bounced off the floor three or four times with a sharp crack, as I filled in that the floor was concrete as soon as I needed to know how it would bounce, and the sound it would make filled in naturally from there.

    I genuinely don’t know whether how I think qualifies as aphantasia. I don’t really imagine visual stimuli, but my imagination is very thorough for sound and feel.



  • I use it daily for connecting it to my car stereo, and about once a month when I mow my lawn or have to fly on a plane. I’ll never buy a phone without one.

    I prefer wired headphones. I don’t want to worry about keeping them charged, and the few pairs of wireless headphones I have tried died or had the buttons stop working after a few uses from getting waterlogged with sweat, while I’ve been using the same pair of $6 wired headphones for 10 years without issues.

    I don’t care for Bluetooth or USB audio connections as they don’t always work intuitively, they might take multiple button presses to set up, and every manufacturer seems to think they need to be set up in a slightly different way, while the auxiliary audio cable just works with no setup.
