She’s more calm than me in the morning then

I love these furryosa updates. She’s such a lil cutie

I might actually do that. I don’t think there’s any reason I need to have sounds tbh. But I’ll have a look for some settings first in case I can just turn it off.

Some people can get very vivid mental images though, with lots of details. If you think it’s hard to describe if you can’t do it, then maybe you’re actually in the same or similar boat as me. I never realised I can’t actually get “mental images” because I assumed whatever pops up in my head is what people were talking about. Just thought it was what people ended up calling the mental concepts, didn’t consider that most people can probably actually “see” mental images to some degree.

And no, I wouldn’t say I can imagine tastes or smells but I can imagine sounds somewhat.

Edit: when I say “see” I mean having an image pop up in your head, like you mentioned in an earlier comment. I don’t get images popping up. I get concepts of something, with kinda attribute labels attached to it. I know a rainbow is a curved shape with the spectrum of visual colours and so on but I don’t get an image of one in my head. I just remember stuff about it.

I can’t imagine smells much, but sounds I can imagine somewhat.

Oh yes I’m also terrible at describing what people look like. Unless I happened to notice very specific things about them so my mind “took notes” of attributes. But even then I can get it wrong.

I’ve tried to find the setting for it, need to look more. But forgetting food in the microwave isn’t the end of the world, not like forgetting something in an oven that’s still on

They still might get a mental concept of a cup pop up though, just not a mental image if that makes sense.

I probably have aphantasia, or at least very close to having it. If someone mentions a cup I can still think about a cup, I just don’t “see” it

My old one did and recently had to replace it. Didn’t know this one would beep so much and I can’t justify replacing a new microwave just because it beeps too many times.

That fridge sounds horrible and I probably would end up replacing that, or at least try everything I could to disable the beeps lol

I’ve got misophonia and this sounds like hell. My microwave beeps 6 times, which is 5 too many in my opinion. But hey at least it makes me rush to the microwave and open it asap to shut it up.

Edit: actually, lately I’ve just been standing by it waiting instead of doing other stuff. I hate forgetting about it and then getting severe discomfort from the beeps.

That’s such a good way to describe it

Signed! Thanks for sharing

That looks so good!

Just because you see all the jokes don’t assume he’s doomed. If he’s still a kid he has even more time to learn to manage his adhd better.

Be patient with him and help him figure out how to deal with stuff in a way that works for him. And help him learn how to handle emotions.

Plenty of people with adhd can still live good lives, even if they can struggle with some stuff.
