@BenceNanay representations work, how they interact with each other, and how they lead to action, then and only then can we begin to address the fancy gloss on top of this fundamental representational machinery, which is uniquely human (Nanay 2021d)." pg 146
@BenceNanay I agree! "So the default for understanding how the human mind represents should not be propositionally structured linguistic representation, but rather imagistic representation of the kind that perception and imagery uses. When we have fully understood how imagistic

@BenceNanay The content will stand alone. No advertisement necessary, though it’s a value add is best.
@BenceNanay The black and white looks much better imo
@qualiazombie @petemandik @alvanoe @BenceNanay Al least it's (far) worse for me
@petemandik @alvanoe @BenceNanay So this is even worse for you (if — and only if? — it was a cover) x.com/qualiazombie/s…
@BenceNanay This one reminds me the 90's, specially for the Ska aesthetic... So I would choose it jaja
@BenceNanay A (perception is not just via the eye. Also B looks creepy)
@philosophypills @BenceNanay Neither. You need a better cover designer. The graphics are weak. The button idea doesn't help & the contrast between black & red lettering adds nothing meaningful and actually makes it harder to see. Your name in the same red as the subtitle also adds to the visual confusion.
@BenceNanay I like this one. In any case, the text font, size and position need to be changed, in my opinion.
@BenceNanay A is objectively the right answer here
