 @85aba34a when i was younger, I read pages of a book in seconds. I could take a snapshot of the page and read it later.
If I lost something, I could rewind my day and see where I put it.
A certain medicine damaged this and two things.

1 I had to learn how to memorise stuff - jeez it's hard rebuilding short term memory.
2 I realised not everyone could remember it all or rewind the day.

Until then I thought many others were lazy or slow
