Eurasian jays can remember incidental details of past events, which is characteristic of episodic memory in humans, according to a study published May 15, 2024, in the open-access journal PLOS ONE by James Davies of the University of Cambridge, U.K., and colleagues. When remembering events, humans have the ability of "mental time travel," consciously reimagining past experiences and potentially recalling details that seemed unimportant at the time. Some researchers have suggested that this "episodic memory" is unique to humans. In this study, Davies and colleagues ran a memory experiment to test for episodic-like memory in seven Eurasian jays, birds that excel at remembering the location of stored food.

Some birds may have the human ability to reimagine memories, new study #research #study #timetravel #memory #eurasianjays #episodicmemory #informationencoding
In the peer-reviewed, open access journal, PLOS ONE, a new research article, “Eurasian jays (Garrulus glandarius) show episodic-like memory through the incidental encoding of information,” indicates that some birds may be able to use “mental time travel,” a capability thought to be unique to humans. Mental time travel is the capacity to mentally reconstruct personal events from the past, aka,…

catalysts, protectors
#man those episodes#so many things put into perspective#like Simon’s role as a protector and his kindness and empathy and compassion and existence being the catalyst for the rest of ooo to#flourish#and Betty is a protector of Simon#I wonder if the last two episodes will explore more of her character? there’s so much to be explored about her giving so much of herself#to Simon but not thinking about what she wants for herself#do we get to explore her feelings or see her at all? will she have changed or learned to let go#I think there will be some sort of closure for the both of them#but at what cost#I am still crying over that scene with Simon’s memory of Betty and their song#my art#fionna and cake#fionna and cake spoilers#simon petrikov#betty grof#petrigrof#golbetty

"You can see yourself from the outside in an episodic memory. The new thinking about episodic memory [...] included ideas about what purpose this kind of memory serves. [...] They suggested that the important and useful thing we do with mental time travel is simulate possible situations in order to aid planning. These situations need never have happened -- they are mere possibilities, things that might come about tomorrow. Episodic memory, which looks backward, is a byproduct of this forward thinking ability. Why should we believe this? One reason is that episodic memory is so unreliable. If its role was to be a mere record, we might expect something more accurate. The combo of unreliability and vividness seen in episodic memory is apart of what suggests that it is a byproduct of a skill in exploring possible futures. A forward-looking faculty brings with it an ability to cook up pasts as well."

thinking about how they said grover was affected the most out of everyone bc he was alone and how nico and bianca stayed for 70 years inside that hotel and didn't forget each other bc they were always within reach and how that little detail makes their story even more devastating bc they got through it together and the moment they got out they get separated and then bianca never comes back
#they had their memories erased as well but didn’t forget they were siblings#and inside that hotel they could've easily wandered off but they didn’t#u have little nico yelling for her in the bg of this episode and being so excited and they were probably having fun together!!!!#no thoughts head empty just the di angelo siblings#bianca di angelo#nico di angelo#di angelo siblings#pjo#percy jackson#percy jackson and the olympians#pjo tv

Managing Memory Changes In the Elderly
Memory changes in the elderly can strain relationships and affect cognition. The Sound Mind Hub suggests proactive strategies to help manage these changes effectively.
As individuals age, the functionality of their memory gradually diminishes. This can prove challenging for elderly individuals who possess a clear understanding of their cognitive abilities. Furthermore, the shifts in memory that occur within the elderly population can be subtle, making them harder to identify. Consequently, this may create tension within parent-adult child relationships, as the…

Thanks for listening to my sad backstory. Anyway, here's Wonderwall.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan xichen#lan wangji#madam lan#This normally would have been two separate comics but I felt like it was a far better joke to have them together.#Enjoy the rare double feature comic!#I was listening to this episode - scripting out and preparing for a longer and heartfelt comic on this scene.#And then Lan Xichen pulled out his flute and started playing unprompted.#I could not contain my laughter. I know it is trying to be emotionally resonate and the flute is pretty but...#It really does have the energy of “Okay thanks for listening to my tragedies and traumas. I don't know how to segue out of this.”#This madam lan design is inspired by Qourmet's design! Really good stuff that I was not able to do more with in this one panel.#Speaking of...I know it is ambiguous on purpose and we are only told what happened through LXC's POV but...#I always interpreted madam lan's passing as a suicide. I think LXC was told it was illness to soften the blow.#She was stuck in a house with maybe a servant coming by to give her food. One day a month she saw her children.#Of course she was warm and loving in their memories-#She was trying to give them a version of her that would be remembered as such. She wanted to protect them from the truth.#She did her best but she was already dead a long time ago. She must have felt like a ghost haunting a house.#Love to her was waiting. And both her boys inherited that view of love.

The bear trying to gaslight me into believing Claire and Carmy’s relationship was all sunshine by putting some never seen before flashbacks where he is suddenly smiling all the time… when the only thing we see season 2 is him miserable and worried and bathed in blue light everytime he is with or thinks about Claire, to the point he even had a panic attack about it????
#the bear spoilers#the bear#sydcarmy#i just don't get it. why if that was the goal they didn't framed it like that season 2??#like I might have believed their relationship more if u have gave me 1 of those scenes!! but u didn't!!#and now u want to erase history with new memories that happen… who knows when? because the timeline doesn't even fit??#im still in episode 5. but these bothered me so much… like it surprised me. because it was all flashbacks. but like am I crazy??

You couldn't do a straightforward Human Nature plot set in the 12th Doctor era bc if 12 got fobwatched Clara would immediately steal his identity. Missy would also steal his identity. Absolutely insane Doctorfication possibilities.
Also, 12's forgotten memories canonically manifest as songs AND he's faceblind, so he wouldn't even have a dramatic dream journal full of half-remembered portraits, he'd just be hanging out in his university office shredding guitar solos while Bill (who he just met) is like "Wow, sick riff Professor Smith!" and he's like "Thanks, it's called I Dreamt I Rode a Dinosaur."
#doctor who#twelfth doctor#clara oswald#''Clara acquires the human Doctor as companion while publicly using his name'' is the obvious option but not the only one...#(The dramatic irony of John Smith not even considering he could be the Doctor bc She's Right There What Do You Mean?)#but honestly either Clara or Missy might fobwatch him against his will if they deemed it Necessary#and there'd probably be some kind of episode theme about The Importance Of Memories TM#I'm rambling now

Grief as a time machine
#i forgot that the 1st episode of ds9 is kinda abt sisko letting go of his dead wife and moving on#the main reason i wanted to draw this was bc the actress who plays Jennifer is like... not good#like she sounds amd acts so fucking weird when sisko goes back into his memories with her. but then when the prophets are talking thru her#it kinda really works bc she just seems so alien. no one else the prophets are using are being like that so idk if it was intentional#but the way she looks at him is so bizarre i wanted to draw it#thus is also drawn like wayyyyy bigger than i usually draw. i draw so so tiny. but i think it looks ok mostly#ds9#deep space nine#star trek#benjamin sisko#art

a very major part of being in the doctor who fandom is watching critics say that “doctor who has become too political” or “doctor who has become woke” as if it wasn’t political the last ten times they said that
