Something weird just happened. I was reading here, then got breakfast, then dishes, then got to my phone.
Went I got back, I started panicking because Tapas wasn't in my apps list. It took maybe half a minute of searching my already alphabetic list for me to remember that... I didn't install the app.
But what's weirder is that in between seeing my apps list and not yet remembering my non-installation, I FELT that I couldn't access the comic I was reading ever again.
Legit.
I think it's because I've been playing an online game that doesn't always(?) autosave and my phone crashes a lot and I often lose progress. But it's still...wow. Did I really think the comic was stored in my phone?
No idea how that thought process happened. It's a vastly different context. But my mind decontextualized it.
TL;DR- installation was imagined, but my panic was real.

I really want to watch what I expose myself to now. Whether it's progress loss or unhelpful thoughts or something else entirely.
