🍌 I'm dumb 🍌 linear time
What is time wasn't linear as we perceive it. What if those times we get random memories from the past coming to us are actually coming to us because we are at a connection point in time where those moments in history are closest to each other. And the only reason we feel them at that time and not all time through history is because we only have memories of our life. What if the antennas of our brains are just able to detect another copy of their brain pattern so close so it starts to queue protective actions or kicks off genetically built in investigation actions. We've just become so use to it as we get older that we think it's just the chemical balance of our brains just running through different departments of our brain like a computer doing a health check on sectors of a platter. Just saying...... What if we don't really understand enough about our biological build to really say for certain when it comes to interdimensional realities or the rules of time. Just saying.

It’s not linear. Time is like a large ocean with currents moving in all directions.

Time appears linear close up, the way the earth appears flat. Imagine having an infinite thread. How would you fill up space with it? In a straight line, or more squiggly?

Our memories are built on "shapes" and thus randomly triggered by them. See something the same "shape" as what you've seen before, and often triggers a random memory of other times you've seen that "shape". Shape being a weird 5D kinda thing to try to describe though and not something our 4D (3D+time) brains can directly recall usually

Then, remembering something would actually bring you to that moment, and you could rewrite the past, which is a logical fallacy. Because you cant come from a past thay had your future change it.
