I read somewhere else that time speeds up when we repeat a few boring/not-so-stressful things each day.

I want to agree with it. The more I take on and do, however imperfectly and which involves a bit more stress, it starts to slow down time. At least in the sense that you look back at the previous year and think "wow that was a lot and it seems like so long ago" when it actually wasn't that long ago.

In fact, the key might be to journal more of the mundane things. Like how many times I had to get on a call with the background verification company to speed up my move to the new company.
and from OP article,
> Surprising information comes in droves every single day, so the brain simply paid a lot of attention
how come all the new/surprising info from shorts/reels/tiktok not have a effect of slowing down time haha?
