It's not that I want to skip the rest; I love her voice and hearing her talk, I just get anxious trying to remember everything. If I know in advance what's important I can focus on that and let the irrelevant slip away. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] tetris11@feddit.uk 4 points 1 year ago oh I see, yeah definitely just give me the summary and then let me tune out the other details haha permalink fedilink source parent
