  • Most days I’m about a 3, sometimes it’s more like 4. If I’m reading a book or doing something like that, where I’m really focusing on the visualization, I can get to 2. The only time I ever get to 1 is when I’m laying in bed at night about to fall asleep.

    I have real trouble sleeping sometimes, and one of the things I do to help is put on instrumental music (lately, a lot of jazz sax), and then pick some random scenario, like:

    “if I could be king of the world what policy changes would I make?”

    Or “if I ever get to have kids, what kind of things would I most want to teach them?”

    Or “Let’s design the perfect floorplan for my dream home”

    And as I begin to drift off, but while still consciously aware, I can see things in stunning detail, but it’s always like they’re semi transparent. That’s not a great example, because there’s no backdrop, but it’s the best I’ve got.










  • I’ve only really learned the Spanish I’ve picked up by osmosis, living in areas with large Spanish speaking populations. I’m actually genuinely proud of myself for being able to read this simple comic. Lmao

    Edit:

    My favorite Spanish sentence, and the only one I can say with any real confidence: Lo siento, mi español es muy malo.

    Apparently, I say it with a near flawless accent, though, because whenever I say it people machine-gun Spanish back to me and tell me “no, no, it’s very good!”
