I saw this post on x-twitter that explains this phenomenon which I really relate to:

ADHD and other auditory processing challenged brains will have a delayed ability to process auditory inputs.

But the brain has a pretty nifty feature that stores up to 2 seconds of auditory information… it’s called the “phonological loop”

So, when a brain that struggles to process auditory info takes that info in… even though there’s a delay in processing what that info means… it stays accessible for a short time to be processed when the brain is ready.

Cool, no?

    Hahahaha yes I get this.

    I’ll be absorbed and my sister will walk in and be like ‘blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah?’

    And I’ll be like: 😶 🤨 😀
