Found in the wild, and I appreciated it enough

I've played drums "off and on" my entire life; but I keep getting stumped by 'fluency'. Any tips for motivation or fun lessons?

Anyone else have a cat that likes to sploot?

Specifically, as in having memories from being younger than 3 years old and even further

I orient myself's own timeline upon some early-childhood memories, but some people have questioned it as false memory... which, understandable

But I can draw the layout of every house I've lived in, who's room was who's, where furniture was, certain events (like having gum melt in my diaper, crying in my crib about not trick-or-treating, seeing my first "flying-leaf" insect) and a lot of other random tidbits

A lot of it I've been able to confirm as true, which is what has always intrigued me. How far back is average? I think the furthest I can grasp is around 2 years old or maybe a little less

Maybe some of it has to do with trauma-ish things or something? But I can literally remember the potpourri on my mom's dresser when she was holding me, who was at my 3rd birthday... and just, kinda far back

What's everyone else's memory like here? I feel like my early pre-teens was kinda a blur, but my early childhood seems more vibrant sometimes. I dunno, I was just curious

I have zero basis in that statement, it's a thought

I hope this post doesn't break community rules, but I just wanted to say thanks. It felt like my "egg cracked differently" today. Wasn't sure where to post

I wanted to thank y'all. I don't know that I'm right, in trying to explain it with words, such as "egg cracked"— cause I'm not sure that I can say that. But I think, (thanks in large part) from hearing y'all; I found me again. Not entirely and whole... but I see me again

It feels like my egg cracked differently, if that make sense? It was always just me. So now I know I would probably never transition, because I'm already happy to see me when I see my reflection

But I wanted to say thanks, for helping me see you, and helping me see me. Sorry if it's corny. But I'm forever grateful for that insight. I appreciate you

Idk if this is the right community, but I was absolutely FLOORED this morning by this notification; and needed people to see (so I don't feel so crazy)

I'm moving and trying to sell a futon... so I'm using facebook marketplace. But it refuses to let me turn off notifications about "suggestions", and I guess I just have to deal with it for now

What the actual fuck kinda notification just popped onto my phone though (from facebook's marketplace)? Idk what to even do after seeing it, so here I am trying to make sense of it in anyway I can

What the actual fuck y'all?.

Was wondering if the medical field was large enough around here to have an active community (or if I'm just not finding it). Think we could get one going if there's enough of us here?
