Wait... So it's not just because I have an affinity for language?

Also: Other people see text in their mind like that? I thought that was just my own quirk.

This is so cool! Is it like you're imagining the text, or can you literally see it?

What about words that are muffled or too quiet?

How does it feel/look like when you're in an area that's packed with people? (Thank you in advance!)

It's like a mental HUD. Sometimes there's even an internal monologue like the enclopedia checks in Disco Elysium; though it's my voice, not that cool narrator's voice.

reminds me of my reaction when I discovered I had chromesthesia.

"Wait, not everyone sees music visually?"

What does the text look like for you?

14:16:31, 14:16:30, 14:16:29, and so on.

Like military time or a count down or is it colon separated?

[-] veeesix@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

Seems like a countdown to me.

[-] ToastedPlanet@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 weeks ago

How long have you had this?

[-] Zangoose@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Is that... a countdown to the next holiday?

14 point Times New Roman font (or, well, at least a font with sarifs) above or below whatever I'm looking at, giving the name of and a short description of the thing, or what words I am hearing being spoken.
