My sister got a Bluetooth headset and it reminded me that i cant use those because my ears heat up in less than 10 seconds after putting them on, in fact as i am typing this my ears are kinda of uncomfortably hot. Dust also cause my ears to heat, it usually the cause but it can also happen randomly as well as when i leave the PC monitor running when i sleep(same room).

there is some other stuff i thought to mention but i think it would be better for a post after discovering your body(e.g my cousin though all ppl can only see through one eye until recently because he himself can only see through one eye and that’s how he found out he has only one functioning eye)

Also feel free to talk about NSFW stuff and is this post hard to read(sentence structure wise)? Cause i never know if ppl have hard time reading my post, and at the moment i find it hard to read myself

    could you elaborate on what you mean by “more colours”? like infra red or ultraviolet? or do you mean your eyes have an extra colour cone that gives you more precise information about colours so that it’s easier for you to tell them apart?

      A human’s eyes see color because of cones in the eyes. Each one corresponds to a different range of wavelengths; one cone corresponds to red, one to yellow or green, and one to blue. Tetrachromats have four cones.

      Look outside at the nearest flower. To you, it could be just yellow, but we might see some cyan or teal that other people don’t. This is how crows, which we typically assume are all identically black, often recognize each other so well; they have five or six color cones I think, and amongst themselves, they look like they have the colors of a parakeet.

      We can see new colors too. They are difficult to describe, though the best way to describe them is to ask you to think of the most neon-esque colors you can think of and think of all the dimensions and hues you might have never seen and which take on a life of their own. These new colors stretch beyond the ordinary boundaries of the rainbow but loop around in the same way.

        fascinating!

        no need to answer if you don’t want to, i don’t want to make you feel like it’s an interview or anything but i do wonder -

        how does art look to you? do you sometimes see colours that are wrong that someone has used without knowing they’re there? do digital things look inherently less colourful since they only emit the light that 3 colour coned people can perceive?

          Yes, I do occasionally see colors in art that aren’t there. Not to scare people, but in traditional art, it almost seems like smudges, and I can actually attest even some very classic works of art have some peculiar color arrangements when you see them in person. In digital art, you would be right; it’s like a regular person watching one of those lowkey noire movies or sports movies that voluntarily reduce the color output.
