Time is nonsense. Nothing that happened recently ever feels like it was recent and nothing that happened years and years ago ever feels like it was years ago. Looking at old blog posts from other of my incarnations, I am seeing things I wrote in 2017 and thinking there’s no way that was just three years ago that I said that, as the events it discusses seem in my head like they are at least five years ago if not more, if only because the person who was writing these post seems like a person from long ago, not merely three years.

Answer: a later post which referenced that one came in 2017; that’s where I got confused.
