In case you didn’t already know, it’s breeding and nesting season for Alameda’s wild turkeys—and they need you (and your dogs) to stay away from them. Seriously, they mean it. One recent incident sent an 83-year-old woman to the hospital. https://alamedapost.com/features/alameda-life/apd-cautions-residents-after-aggressive-wild-turkey-attacks-elderly-alamedan/

I just realized I have trouble understanding what people say not only in noisy environment or being distracted, but also if I move - and I don’t mean something like move in different directions etc: just moving my body or my head slightly while another person talks makes it much harder for me to catch the words.

Is this something common for people with auditory processing disorder or neurodivergent people in general, or is it some other quirk of my body/mind?

APD responded to a road rage incident in which one driver made verbal threats, while the other brandished a knife and used it to deflate the other motorist’s tire before fleeing. The driver who fled was arrested for brandishing a weapon and felony vandalism, and the other received a citation. https://alamedapost.com/news/road-ragers-incident-involving-threats-weapons-slashed-tires/
