Just want to say I appreciate your videos so much! There are a lot of things I don’t directly relate to, but I find so many points of connection with the topics you talk about and how you describe your experiences. Your closing remarks about creativity as hopeful resistance resonated with me, and I needed to hear it. Thank you so much!
I'm finding your videos very helpful as I'm sorting out trying to understand how my own memory works, I seem to be able to kind of summon up vague visual bits eventually and reassemble moments of memory and then revisit those bits to reinforce them so I don't lose them. But I just draw a blank when first trying to remember something, like anything about my favorite movie other than the name and that I know I loved it, I can't see the actors or remember the story at all at first, and then after struggling to remember I start having moments of vague impressions or a flash of a visual here and there and some semantic memories of parts of the story, but it's like developing a photo from film negatives every time, having to do the chemical wash that will let the image start forming again slowly. I can't currently remember my father's face but I can think and focus and start remembering things like photos of him that I saw most often and then a vague impression of him in real life but it's not as clear as my memory of the photos. I used to think my remembering/visualizing faces from childhood was bad because I grew up nearsighted and didn't get glasses till I was 9, so I figured I was seeing people as blobs and blurs anyway and people were more a conceptual experience than visual for me.
I'm so appreciative that you find value in my videos. It's a puzzle to me to try to figure out why the drop off. But you never know with social media algorithms. 🤔
I at least know why I'm not getting many views on my posts... because I post so irregularly... And a big part of that is PDA. I love watching your videos. It always gives me food for thought.
PDA does make posting difficult for me sometimes. Other times my videos aren't affected by PDA. I'm not sure why. One trick for me is I don't post on a schedule. If I told myself I have to make one a week or every Friday then that'd definitely trigger my PDA. I love hearing my videos give you food for thought. That is the best compliment I can receive!
Great Scott Chris and Heather! You've done it. Mystery solved! I don't have a ghost 👻 🐈 cat! It was karra simply trying to relay that my cat friend crossed over to the otherside! A 💯% perfect relay of emotions 😁, my cat loved me and appreciated me! Outstanding!
I remember my personal history, but in very much the same sense as I remember the history that I have learned from books. Recalling the memories does not trigger any emotional responses; even though I remember as a fact being very emotional when they occured. Is this what you experience?
Does that mean your brain doesn't replay every awkward thing you've ever said on repeat while you're trying to sleep? I think my partner might have SDAM. I have a rather good memory. Both types of mind have their advantages and disadvantages.

I hope you are staying warm, it was 12 F in The Denver area when I woke up.....
Brrrr! We're actually having a fairly nice day. It was pouring rain this morning but now it's sunny and mid 50s. Stay warm!

@i.am.mindblind my dad bought me a microphone, so my sound quality is better. But now, the thought of having to use it triggers my PDA.
Oh I understand that feeling so well. It's so frustrating! I hope you find a way to make it work.
My cat says Meu.
