@critter_in_flux @NanoRaptor It's why I take so many pictures. I can remember things if I see the pictures enough. Other than that it's just bits of events. General impressions of people. But very little of "oh we used to do x y z together". Like I remember that my first friend when I was 4 and I use to play Batman and Robin, but I don't remember what that was like. I mainly remember it because I remember us saying that when we were older. Aphantasia probably plays a role.
And I don't remember anything specific before I was 5. Just later stories, and one image, from when we moved into a new house.
None of this is new. I've never been able to remember that stuff, even when U was young. Just impressions and limited scenes.
