I was talking to my friend how much I’ve been craving lobster 2 days ago. They now have lobster at my grocery store - they haven’t had lobster in years. Last winter I was talking about how much I like goose over Turkey for Christmas dinner and suddenly they had frozen goose and they literally never had goose before.

Am I being targeted or am I paying more attention or am I just being paranoid?

If the bots are listening, bring back lamb. I’ll buy lamb chops.

    I don’t think it’s a joke or even paranoid, just a bee noticing the effect of a quirk of human brains.

    Noticing an illogical thing because their brain took a shortcut and dusted the fallout under a rug isn’t an easy experience. The first instinct is not to assume our mind has broken, it’s to try to find the answer to make the event explainable. Often that involves thinking only inside the scope of the event because no other information is immediately apparent.
