  • I’ll save you the boring answers and go with: record music off of the XFM rock show on Friday and Saturday nights. It was always new talent trying to make a name, and some of them did and some of them faded into obscurity.

    I have recordings of great songs (albeit with some static) with lyrics that you simply cannot find on the internet anywhere.

    I dub these “ghost bands” and their songs haunt my hard drive.






  • Bad. Someone has to remind me what happened yesterday or at an event and -boom- I get a recall permission notification that sends me a mind video of a snippet.

    Otherwise, my brain is firmly fixated on the present and somehow naively excited about future plans.

    I used to think that I cherry-picked the past, but no I just average and flatten it quicker than most.

    Introspection is something I’m capable of, but it’s mostly feelings based rather than event based because I can’t recall examples of my behaviour very well, I just vibe it.

    It hasn’t affected me at school, my short term memory functions mostly okay, and I excel in getting things done, but it does bother me that my longterm recall is open only to strangers and not to myself.
