@smallcircles oh hello again thanks for prior discussion. want to mention that my memory is nearly photographic most of the time but (1) memory is only useful in the case where someone is actively attempting to claim something untrue to you to convince you of it etc (2) i doubt it's actionable in court (i would consider it distinct from an eyewitness account but idk if the court would (3) want to note something i doubt many at all are aware of but photographic memory is very much not just normal memory but better. it is often associated with forms of OCD. personally i can't say whether OCD results in vivid unambiguous memory vs the other way around. but as a result people with photographic memory generally are not trusted as experts but rather pathologized with standard structures of ableism. ur gr8 tho just wanted to share

@smallcircles i now have more control, but i actively inform people e.g. not to let me see them entering their password or credit card number bc it is just rly instant and not really under my control. strings of numbers are not my specialty but they do stand out to me in my memory
