@jexner @mavnn Since I seem to be in this picture, I’ll give my example, which is that Nicolas Cage and Christopher Walken occupy the same slot in my head to such an extent that if you name one of them, I cannot come up with the name of the other one.
(I had to google “weapon of choice video" to write this twoot.)
@mavnn @zarfeblong @edwinb Same here.
I am, for example, always unsure whether when I think about this specific actor and his movies, I am thinking about Ryan Reynolds or Ryan Gosling. And they're not that similar.
I also do it with people in my life.

@[email protected] @[email protected] That works as a check, I suppose! And my apologies - I realized about 2 hours after posting that by using tags to give people context I also defaulted to you being pinged by every reply. My brain is not braining particularly smoothly today.
@mavnn @zarfeblong @edwinb Happened to me just a couple weeks ago 😅 It happens to me often. And yes, AuDHD present :)
@[email protected] Does it also persist for extended periods (months/years), or does it reset for you once you have a 'distinction' in mind? The thing which made me curious about whether it's ND related is how 'sticky' it is for me even in the face of clear differences between the parties.
