I’m sure this happens to others but I am curious as to why
At times while im reading at the left corner
Of my eye I see a word i just read change
like a a magic trick
it’s rare but my wife just told me it happened to her
she had no glasses on and looked at her phone to see the day and date
she said it said Monday and then it changed to Sunday
this has happened to me but it’s a word in sentence
it’s rare but does happen.
anyone else observe this behavior?

Occasionally I will perceive oddness similar. I attribute it to quantum entanglement.
 
Thanks for the reply , I never heard of anyone else until the wife said it. And now you.
 
Wow me as well. I first noticed things like that many years ago
as a contractor soo many items to look for an at . It’s exactly as you say a glitch
have you ever seen the episode of twilight zone and the blue men building the next moment in time ?
laughed at it but quickly realized why that episode possible was made
 
In the quantum realm, all possibities exist at the same time, and particles can be in two places at once, regardless of time as well. Pretty heady stuff. We have conditioned ourselves not to observe.

My brain jumps to conclusions about what it thinks it sees sometimes. I thought I saw a name when I glanced over my e-mail this morning that was "Ask Dallas." That seemed like a strange name so I looked again. It changed to DallasK.

That too, reality is dependant on the hardware generating it, or should I say, interpreting it.

I will be driving & see a car I think belongs to someone I know. When that car passes me, I realize it’s not the person I thought I recognized after all. I’m sure many of you have experienced the same thing. Happens all the time. Here’s where this gets interesting for me on a frequent basis. A short time later (hours & mins, not days or weeks) I will actually see the person I thought it was in the first place, driving the same model vehicle.
