    apples are uniquely hard to rotate in your head because apples are bland and uninteresting and nobody's favorite fruit. try rotating a cow instead. it's free and the cops can't stop you

    A cow is too complicated, I would rather rotate a banana. I'm actually doing that right now, just rotating a banana in my head.

      Why do I feel annoyed by this picture?

          I don't know how a cow looks like directly from the front though. How would you even imagine that??

          I would imagine a cow, directly from the front. Or maybe starting with the side on, then slowly rotating so it's facing my minds eye.

          Oh dear, it looks angry!

            Like, I think I can imagine an apple rotating, but it’s not like you actually see it the way you’d see an actual apple in front of your eyes, right?

            That highly depends on your specific definition of that. But personally I can do things like think of a place I've been, and basically walk around like I'm controlling a video game character. "Seeing" the place as if I was there.

            Same. I also like to study floorplans of places and "walk around", exploring it in my mind.

              Same as the comic, you got to utilize the stem and the leaf, or maybe give it a worm or something

                I incidentally visualize a 3D object in my head complete with blender's UI. For some reason that helps

                            I do! I visualize when I dream. But I can't do it on command. This is how I realized I probably have aphantasia. I can never consciously visualize. I can think and conceptualize, but not 'see'.

                            I have the exact same experience, from lack of inner monologue to aphantasia. Funnily enough, when I'm on the verge of falling asleep, I can sometimes conjure images, but that's the only way I'm able to
