Some people collect stamps; I’ve been collecting unusual applications of spaced repetition systems.
I realized today that I haven’t yet solicited the power of Twitter here! What weird use cases have you found?

(lifting a few from there onto Twitter):
* Something clever or beautiful a writer or artist did: why did it work? What might have made them think of it? What was its effect on you?
* Nostalgic visualization; e.g. front: “visualize your trip to Trapani with Sara”; back: photo(s)

* Changes in intention: what made you realize that your old intention isn’t serving you well? Why wasn’t it serving you well? What’s your replacement? What difficult changes does this mean?
* Motor memory prompts; e.g. play a C# minor scale on your thigh

What a gorgeous response from @startuployalist. I'm very interested in the "poetics" of spaced repetition—perhaps for another thread, once I understand that topic better.
A very interesting use case: repeatedly exposing yourself to thoughts that you flinch away from.
