    I often find myself getting distracted from whatever I’m watching because my brain takes over and starts making up alternative scenarios.

      I’ve noticed my brain lately has been doing this thing where I’m watching something cool and it goes, “hey, wouldn’t it be cool if <exact thing I’m watching>?”

      Well, yeah, but why are you activating the “I have a cool variant idea related to this” pathways and distracting me instead of just watching how this one plays out?
