@rachelandrew I was nodding along so hard while reading this.

I also learnt about this about 10 years ago and it completely opened my eyes. My partner is the complete opposite and when we talked about how we both perceive things we couldn’t understand each other at all. I’ve always described it to others that I think in “concepts” or “abstractions” but your example of a list / database really resonates!

Thank you for taking the time to write this. Very much makes me feel not so alone! 💙
