They're also round, warm colored, and soft/smooth. I will not be taking follow up questions.

Sounds like someone has synesthesia.

Synesthesia is a fascinating affliction.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I beg to differ. It's just a state of being.

I sincerely hesitated before posting that, unsure of the word "affliction." I've only ever known one person with it and they didn't seem to suffer from it. However, their view of the world absolutely was fascinating.

I intend no denigration of anyone with synesthesia. However, for anyone with it reading this, I'd love to learn more from you.

I see them as all darker colored, like a sunset but not quite night.

Weekends are always dark to me, I kind of hate it.

Thursday is like this.

I literally cannot for the life of me explain why.

But خميس? The name of Thursday in my native Arabic?

Ah but Jeudi, the French name. Sun high in the sky. Very round.

I cannot even begin to explain.

Really ? that's too funny... to me they're warm, a bit soft, balanced & fair, and very finely textured
