Is that what I sound like to you in your head?

Always, man.

That little head bob, that's exactly right.

Yeah, yeah, with my not face cam.

voice do you guys do this this ties into a very interesting thing uh that i think can finally relate some of this aphantasia to not and just made me realize i have two modes of reading right i have a mode of reading where i am sounding everything out and i am hearing the voices and i'm it's slower it is just more involved and and it's like i'm i'm you know i can't say that it's helping vividly imagine anything but sometimes i'm reading the words in my head as i'm doing it right and then when the character get there it can be their voices

The other mode of reading is there is nothing happening as I'm reading.

It is pure just comprehension.

That's when I'm moving fast.

That, I think, paints the better picture of things happening, but less about the voices.

It like turns into this different thing.

Or sometimes it's just like I'm just comprehending because I'm like, yeah, I want to get through this section because it's like for some reason or another, I like my attention lapses and I'm just like.

zoned out and i am understanding everything but it's not translating to everything there so i think actually i'm going to lump that middle one with the vividly just to the first one because it is slower and it's like taking your time and it's like oh i want to really savor every word here and then the other one is just pure comprehension i don't have any imaginations associated with it it is just word go in it does not get transcribed it is just the information of it goes into the ether and it's darkness

Or is it just like slower?

I honestly don't know because I haven't taken a test between the two.

I think it's probably about the same, but one is faster, much faster, which might explain why you're so quick witted is because if you don't have to translate it into another like layer of imagination, then it can go like.

I think that there is something about that when people are really good at what they do and really tuned in to what they need to make happen.

It's unconscious.

It's instinctive.

And I think maybe passing through that instinctive layer removes any of the conscious imagination front area.

I can't imagine not having it.
