    My point is nobody was exactly innocent there, and while we were allies of convenience with Germany for a time we also got help from none other than Great Britain, Sweden and even the US in the same timeframe. We were never part of the third Reich in any capacity, and you damn well know it.

    Also, we fought a defensive war, not an offensive one.

    That same grandfather fought on the red side of our civil war. You’re writing about things you know fuck all about. Russia attacked us, we struck them back worse. Twice. Then we fought the Germans right after that for good measure, and kicked those out too.

    Westerner or not at least get your fuckin facts straight before spouting off.

    I’m Finnish. Might know a thing or two about what they’re up to both short and long term.

    I might even read passable russian since it’s something that’s pretty important in the area I live in, about an hour from the border.

    My grandfather was 'naded in the continuation war too, but please do continue to act like you’re the expert here.

    Okay. That seems like an extremely inconvenient thing to live with. Must be extremely frustrating.

    For me it’s more like …I can’t see a 7 or an 8 but I don’t have a problem with taking 2 from the 7 and “holding” the remaining 5 in my memory while I add up 8 + 2.

    On the other hand if someone asks about what an apple is I can tell them they come in red or green varieties but ask me to draw one and it’ll be the ugliest apple ever put on paper. Meanwhile I can draw just fine if I have a model in front of me.

    The thing I seriously don’t understand is why I can see my dreams though. Never made any sense to me whatsoever.

    I can’t see anything but I can still hold numbers (again, up to a point) in my head without any kind of problem. It’s not a memory impairment in any way, at least not for me. Then again there’s not that much research into it so I’m genuinely curious about your experience as well.

    What does not being able to see inner images have to do with math?

    I’m asking because I can’t see shit but I have no problems with doing math up to a certain point. Not in any way good at it but it doesn’t impair my memory to the point it would be a hindrance either.
