Close your eyes and slowly put your index near the tip of your nose without touching it.

...how did you know where your nose was? :sas1:

You didn't use sight, taste, smell, touch or hearing, i.e. any of your five senses.

We also actually know that your brain makes your nose invisible to the eyes because you actually look at the sides of it constantly.

So how'd you know where to put your finger? :sas2:

(This is actually evidence that we have more than five discernable senses, which could include being able to sense electromagnetic pulses. The above is called body schema, i.e. being able to sense your body's position in relation to itself without using any of your five senses. It gets way more mind-fücky the more you think about it.)
i was gonna say it's proof i bomb atomically :umad:

You only see a flipped version of you when you look at yourself in the mirror....


Nygga you ain't even been looking at the real you your whole life ...

Your twin brother got an earring on the Right, but in the mirror yours is on the LEFT!

:ohhh:
For what it's worth. You actually do look the exact same as you do in the mirror to other people.

It's just that your brain is incredibly unfamiliar with the reversed image of yourself (a picture or video of you), AND most people take selfies and shít from up close, which distorts your features.

If you want to confirm what you ACTUALLY look like, you'd need to have a picture taken of you with a 200mm lens camera.

I went through this rabbit hole last week when I took a video of myself using my rear cam and was like, "I DON'T LOOK LIKE THAT:damn:!"

I then remembered all of the photos that I'd taken for IDs and licenses and such, and realized that the camera was at a terrible angle, and I actually do look how I do in the mirror. The images in the ID pictures were reversed like in the videos I took of myself, and I looked the exact same.

it might play a role in peoples' propensity to be duped.

:yeshrug:
do you feel duped? whats a worse feeling:, to be duped and happy, or to be told the truth and miserable?

I don't think that's what it means. I don't have an inner monologue, that doesn't mean I don't think. That just means I think internally in a non-verbal way.
so is it like gollum/smegle type thoughts

or like this



"bud light keeps it coming"
