minus-squarefizzle@quokk.aulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·3 days agoNo, you’re thinking of clockwise vs counter clockwise. As the shell spirals around itself, it does not create a flat disk. Rather, it creates a cone shape. If Jeremy was pointed North, the point of his cone would point to the west, while most other snails would point east. You can see it in the photo on this post.
