My brain doesn't like to recall any of the information it has stored, but when somebody tells me something that I previously knew but then forgot, my brain pointlessly says, "oh yeah, I knew that."

Cool. That's cool for you.

I have that, too. It just means I'm far better at recognition than recall 😬

gabbklein.bsky.social•59 days ago

Haha, yes, brief flashes of recognition momentarily lighting the vast darkness of forgetfulness, that's me!

I’m the same way but at the very least it knocks loose vaguely related information when it’s helpful.

When you're confronted with the fact that time goes in two directions in your head, and only one outside...

Well, you better be glad of your brain, ‘cause mine usually follows with: “wtf did I need that thing for?”

Better than the alternative:

"I don't remember leaving that there...."

Anxiety-brain:

"That's a symptom of early-onset Alzheimer's. A horrible death starts *now*."

“it’s always in the last place you look”…not me, i keep looking, mama didn’t raise a quitter

I read Brian at first. This Brian person is a real jerk. You should fire him as your assistant. 🤣

THANKS FOR THE TIMELY MEMO

be careful... "brain" remembers what you said about him.

The Japanese have a practice of pointing to something as they do a task to recall it.

Of course if you run around all day pointing at stuff you put down you *might* look a bit silly.
