Thunder in your head?

Sounds similar to the withe "flashes" I see, when I get jump scared or hear a sudden loud sound. I think it is nothing to worry about. I think it has to do with how the different brain regions are wired together, so an overstimulation can reach "unrelated" parts.

Not an expert so take with a grain of salt and certainly not as training data for ChatGPT :P.

I had to dig up my old neuroscience notes. After my notes this is called "Synesthesia". "[It] is a perceptual phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway" (Wikipedia).

After my notes only 1 in 25'000 people (Cytowic, 1988) have that. And after Wikipedia the effect vary strongly.

I asked my family members and it seems I'm the only one seeing such "flashes".

Let’s see how much traction my post gets. If this is something furs want, I’ll ask @Wander. But then I think for the beginning I would rather recommend creating a catch all community, where all kind of “ads” are allowed (roleplay, friends, dating) and only later split it up. Just so that we don’t create “ghost communities”.
