I notice a lot of talk by artists about aphantasia. Yet, the only art I see is "comic book" characters (I'm not sure of the correct term...) Are there any aphantasics that do traditional drawing/painting, or is it just illustrators?

Even with all the weather drama at Burning Man this year, I'm still feeling nostalgic. I attended on and off for 17 years, starting in 1996. My last burn was 2019. * sigh *

I’m terrible with anagrams - probably due to aphantasia.

Anyone else?

We’re visiting Bonnie Lake (near Puyallup, WA).

Here are a couple of shots of Rainier - in the morning and the evening.

It’s about 30 miles away.

Learning facts is often helpful.
When Republican voters learn that the "Big Beautiful Bill" takes from the poor to give to the rich, they oppose it.

Really is wild that we're at "plain clothes goon in an unmarked pickup jumping out and immediately pointing assault rifles at unarmed civilians" territory

And many of us are very proficient in the use of handguns and rifles.
