this kind of mind-flip is how color filters on old war photos tricked me for years,i kept “seeing” real greens in b&w jungle shots. expectations definitely ran the show until a buddy showed me raw scans. what’s a similar thing that skewed your reality before you caught it?

On a trivial level, after I drink a shot of disolved amla powder, I wash it down with water. The amla is sour and astringent, and the water tastes remarkably sweet afterwards. Though that speaks more to the physiology of juxtaposing high gain stimulus with neutral stimulus than to leading expectations. On a cognitive level what we are describing is akin to anchoring bias.
