Why Covid lockdown is hard to remember. Feels like a week or two of memories
I’m a retired brain surgeon and I wanna tell you why you feel like life is passing by. I just need one minute to explain this to you so hang in there.
Repetitive daily routines stop the brain from recording clear detailed memories. When every day looks the same, your brain does not track time the same as a clock does. It tracks change. If nothing new happens then days, months, and years start to blur together.
This is know as Time compression. When life lacks variety, your brain compresses past days together, making it feel like time is sped up.
To stop feeling like life is passing you by, add new experiences to your life. Break routine habits, like changing your daily home routine, taking a different route to work, or trying a new hobby.
Schedule small trips or plan new adventures so your days do not blend together.
Practice mindfulness by staying fully focused on what you are doing right now and not trying to race off to the next task.
Keep a journal and write down happy memories or memorable parts of the day before you go to sleep.
Take deep, calm breaths when you feel anxious or rushed to return your focus to the moment.
You can and you will retrain your brain to not feel like life is passing you by by following these few simple measures.

The only 'growth' we've seen is in government and bureaucracy.
The total number of Australian public servants went from 1.75 million at June 2008 to 2.60 million in June 2025. That is another Tasmania of public servants.
Textbooks will be written about how Australia turned into Argentina. Chances are that the government will seek to have it banned and the eSafety Commissioner will block social media posts.

this is actually crazy
When I was in Australia last December, I found it impossible to transact with any business where there weren't latent government price controls or subsidies of some kind. I came to the realization that with the public sector growing about 5x faster than the private sector, Australia was well on the way to an effectively government run economy, communism by stealth. I dug deeper - the point of no return occurred in about 2013.

Chris Bledsoe just released this incredible image!
It’s a still frame from an orb video, that very clearly has a message flashed inside it.
The first image is the original.
The second is one I did a little editing to, to try to make the letters crisper.
The third is reversed horizontally in case the message was flipped.
What do you think it’s trying to say?
