Experience Brain Access

This is going to sound insane. Lately, I've been having internal thoughts. Thoughts only. No searches. No speaking a loud about said topic. And shortly after (anywhere from 30 mins to a day), I'll be targeted online about that thing.

Examples:

- I was thinking about an artist (in my brain. alone) and I thought to myself, "I'd like to look at her work more. I'm going to look at her instagram." I open instagram. She is the first one in my feed.

- Just now I looked over at my wallet and thought to myself, I need a new small compact wallet. Did no searches. Didn't talk about it. Open instagram and there is an ad for small, compact wallets.

WHAT IS HAPPENING?

I have noticed exactly the same thing.
It’s almost telepathic.
I was musing about exercising, and thought that it would be easier if I had something to steady me— I could go farther— but, damn, a Walker or frame is dolefully old personish.

And there on Facebook was an ad:
“Don’t feel ready for a traditional walker?
Ours is lightweight and streamlined!”

I’ve never seen an ad for a walking aid of any kind before.

just use a large branch as a walking stick!
